Chapter 557

Everything he did was solely for his own benefit,

and he would never again put Konoha's interests first as he had before.

In Jiraiya's impression,

his own teacher, the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi, was a man who could sacrifice his own life for Konoha!!!

But the current Hiruzen Sarutobi absolutely could not sacrifice his own life for Konoha!!

"Lord Jiraiya… give up…"

"Minato-sensei is absolutely determined this time to make the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi and Shimura Danzo both pay the price."

"There's no way you alone can stop Minato-sensei."

"And after everything the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi has done all these years, isn't that enough for you to see his true colors?"

He cast a casual glance at Jiraiya, who was sitting on the ground,

and Kakashi Hatake still could not help but speak the thoughts in his heart.

After hearing Kakashi say this, Jiraiya did not open his mouth to argue back.

He just lowered his head and stared at the ground, not knowing what he was thinking!!!

……

On the other side,

as the livestream system activated,

everyone could once again follow what was happening in another world with Hashirama Senju and the others.

The first person to know of Kaguya Otsutsuki's appearance was Black Zetsu, whom Hashirama Senju had locked in a cage,

and at this moment Black Zetsu in the cage was so agitated that his whole body trembled incessantly!!!

Because the meaning of his very birth was to rescue his mother, Kaguya Otsutsuki,

but the appearance of Hashirama Senju and the others meant Black Zetsu himself could not even figure out how on earth to rescue his mother Kaguya Otsutsuki,

and now his mother Kaguya Otsutsuki had come out of the seal on her own,

which for Black Zetsu was the best possible thing.

Otherwise, facing such a terrifying enemy as Hashirama Senju,

even if Black Zetsu racked his brains,

he could not imagine what method he could possibly use

to rescue Kaguya Otsutsuki from the seal,

and he believed his odds of winning were probably basically close to zero!!!!

"Hashirama… I wonder if you could do me a favor?"

"I still have a child whom you've captured…"

"Black Zetsu, this child, is not evil at heart; everything he did was to rescue me from the seal."

"And with his strength, he basically isn't likely to pose any threat to you, so could you let him out of the cage?"

As for Black Zetsu's current situation, Kaguya Otsutsuki could still perceive it clearly,

one might even say a part of Black Zetsu came from her!!!

So she sensed Black Zetsu's situation right away.

"Mm… there's not much research value left in him."

"Although he's a rare experimental specimen, since you've spoken, Kaguya, I'll let him out of the cage when the time comes."

After hearing Kaguya Otsutsuki say this, Hashirama Senju merely smiled indifferently,

for to him, Black Zetsu's value had basically been thoroughly squeezed dry,

so keeping Black Zetsu locked in the cage any longer had no practical meaning,

and since that was the case, he might as well go with the flow and let him out, doing Kaguya Otsutsuki a favor.

"Mm… thank you…"

After hearing Hashirama Senju say this, Kaguya Otsutsuki hesitated for a moment,

and could only softly utter these words from her mouth,

which were something she had learned from the humans of this world.

And when Hagoromo Otsutsuki and Hamura Otsutsuki heard their mother Kaguya Otsutsuki thank Hashirama Senju,

they were utterly dumbfounded,

they had never imagined their mother Kaguya Otsutsuki would actually thank a human!!!

This completely exceeded the two brothers' imagination!!!

……

Inside the cave,

after hearing Kaguya Otsutsuki's words, Black Zetsu was so agitated that his whole body trembled.

"¨」 Mama didn't forget me!!!"

"Mama didn't forget me!!!"

"Mama didn't forget me!!!"

Black Zetsu had originally felt deeply ashamed because he had spent so many years without rescuing Kaguya Otsutsuki from the seal,

he even believed that a self like him did not deserve to be remembered by his mother,

but he had never expected that, although he had not rescued his mother from the seal,

his mother still remembered him, which made Black Zetsu feel all those years he had spent were completely worthwhile,

his mother was not a cold and heartless person,

He was still very concerned about this son of his; otherwise, he could not have made such a request to Hashirama Senju.

For Kaguya Otsutsuki, he himself had no powerful strength,

so there was no possibility of Kaguya Otsutsuki exploiting him!!!!

The fact that he could say these words to Hashirama Senju showed that he had not forgotten this son of his!!!

The reason he could still make the request to Hashirama Senju to release him from the seal,

was simply because he truly regarded him as his own flesh and blood!!!

That was why Black Zetsu was so excited and thrilled.

328. The Sage of Six Paths' Reluctance: Must I hand all of this over?!

Although Black Zetsu was very happy,

the Sage of Six Paths, Otsutsuki Hagoromo, did not think the same way.

Now he even felt that everything that had happened was a mockery,

that he had regarded his own mother Kaguya Otsutsuki and Hashirama Senju as threats!!

He was the savior of this world,

but the two people who could threaten this world had actually joined forces??

They had come together, and he, this savior, had inexplicably seemed to become the villain of this world,

which made the Sage of Six Paths, Otsutsuki Hagoromo, feel as if he were dreaming!!!

"Sage of Six Paths… even now, do you still believe that what you did was the right thing?"

"So many people in this world have chosen to resist your rule—could it be that you have no awareness of your own actions at all?"

"Everything you have done stands in opposition to this world, yet you believe what you did was the right decision. This is truly hard to fathom…"

"As the Sage of Six Paths, you cannot fail to notice this. The people of this world basically no longer wish to listen to you speak, yet you still believe that what you did was the right decision!!!"

After hearing Hashirama Senju's words,

the expression on the Sage of Six Paths' face grew increasingly ugly,

but he did not open his mouth to retort against Hashirama Senju,

because he found that every single word Hashirama Senju said left him with no reason to refute!!

And every word of Hashirama Senju pierced his heart like a knife!!!

And when the Sage of Six Paths' younger brother, Otsutsuki Hamura, saw the Sage of Six Paths from the side,

he felt all the more deeply moved.

Thousands of years ago, his elder brother, the Sage of Six Paths, Otsutsuki Hagoromo, was the savior of this world,

one could say that everyone in the shinobi world stood behind the Sage of Six Paths, Otsutsuki Hagoromo, for the sake of resisting the rule of their mother, Kaguya Otsutsuki!!
