Chapter 256: Otsutsuki Kaguya Hime

On the battlefield, Luode did not order the legion soldiers to advance en masse, but was waiting for the Six Paths Sage to personally resurrect Otsutsuki Kaguya.

With his powerful Observation Haki and life perception, Luode discovered the Black Zetsu hiding in the shadows, and at this time Black Zetsu was also holding back.

Because his ultimate goal was also to rescue his mother, since the Six Paths Sage was willing to release her, it was perfect for him.

The situation on the battlefield was very unfavorable for the ninja side; at this time the cannon-fodder ninjas had all been exhausted, while the Burning Legion's massive demon army had not made a move.

"The methods have already been taught to you, so begin, summon my mother." The Six Paths Sage spoke.

My time is short, I feel my soul power beginning to dissipate; after using the Outer Path Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique, I have little time left.

This summoning of my mother is very risky. Originally I wanted the people on Earth to resolve this crisis themselves, but in the end I discovered! No matter how hard they try, the ninjas on Earth still cannot solve this crisis! The difference in strength between the two sides is truly too vast, and even these demon armies have not yet unleashed their full power.

That blue giant's true form, and that guy who has been hovering in midair, have not made a move.

In this situation, relying only on Naruto and Sasuke, the hope of victory is slim; summoning his mother to deal with one, and then having Sasuke and Naruto team up to deal with the other, gives them a chance to win.

"!"

"Leave it to us!"

"Six Paths! Heavenly Star Explosion!" X2 Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto almost simultaneously released the seal-breaking technique, completely freeing Otsutsuki Kaguya Hime, who had been bound and required a special method to undo the seal.

Boom—Boom! A shattered space dimension appeared, a woman with white long hair, wearing a divine robe, pale skin, horns on her head, and a Rinne Sharingan on her forehead emerged.

"Ah home, have I finally gained freedom?

Hagoromo, I originally thought it would be Black Zetsu who would rescue me, but I never expected it would be you who released me?"

Otsutsuki Kaguya Hime originally thought her consciousness's creation, Black Zetsu, would rescue her.

But unexpectedly, in the end it was the one who personally sealed her who undid the seal and released her.

Otsutsuki Kaguya Hime glanced at the battlefield with her peripheral vision, saw some strange creatures, and felt a force emanating from her body that she deeply disliked.

"It has been over a thousand years since we last saw each other, Mother, you are still alive, but I have already been dead for many years." The Six Paths Sage sighed and said.

"If you two brothers had obediently listened to me back then, we three—mother and sons—

should still be living happily together, and you two would have obtained the same power as me." Kaguya said angrily.

Back then I had already eaten the God Tree's fruit and obtained unparalleled great power.

The reason I continued to nourish the God Tree was because I wanted to wait for it to bloom and bear fruit again, then give the chakra fruits to my two sons.

That way my two sons could evolve to reach the same level as me, waiting for the clan members to arrive in the future.

With my two sons helping, plus the White Zetsu army, we could defeat the clan members and then capture them all.

Afterwards we would feed these pure-blooded Otsutsuki clan members to the God Tree to continue producing chakra fruits, in order to deal with the Otsutsuki main family.

But those two foolish sons interfered with her plan; I cultivated the God Tree fundamentally for you two, to make you two become undying and immortal existences like me.

But you two just don't understand; instead, for those lowly insects, you have become enemies with your mother me.

"Mother, I am sorry, I back then could not agree with your approach, but now your beloved world has again encountered a crisis.

Your enemy has finally come, so please save this world!" The Six Paths Sage spoke.

"So! You are releasing me, this mother, because this world has encountered a great crisis, is that right?" Kaguya said angrily.

This answer dissatisfied her; she wanted to hear that the son had come to his senses, the son had apologized, so he released her.

At this moment, a black viscous substance burst out from the ground and then attached itself to Kaguya's body.

"Mother! Long time no see, you have finally released the seal."

"Hmm! I know everything! Even if Hagoromo does not release my seal, you will still rescue me."

Upon contacting her own consciousness's creation, she immediately understood everything that had happened on this earth.

At the same time she also knew why her eldest son had released her seal?

Damn thing, I originally thought you had come to your senses! "Mother, no matter what, these guys are also your enemies, I think it's better to temporarily team up with them!" Black Zetsu spoke.

Kaguya has never told anyone what her enemy is, not even her sons, nor her consciousness's creation.

"So that's it, you guys have misunderstood something? I am indeed guarding against my enemy, but my enemy is not those guys." Kaguya spoke. Hearing this, everyone present was somewhat dazed; could it be, could it be that these guys are not the mother's enemies?

"My enemy is the Otsutsuki clan from outer space, every one of them possesses the Rinne Eye, and I am a traitor to the family." Kaguya spoke.

"That guy over there also possesses the Rinne Eye." Uzumaki Naruto pointed at the distant Luode and spoke.

"I don't know how his Rinne Eye came to be, but that is not the Rinne Eye of the Otsutsuki clan.

The Rinne Eye of the Otsutsuki clan must be awakened after eating the Chakra Elixir, that is, the substance refined from the Chakra Fruit.

I cultivated the God Tree back then to give you two brothers the Chakra Fruits, to refine the Chakra Elixir for you to eat!" Kaguya spoke.

Hearing this, the Six Paths Sage felt somewhat moved.

So originally Mother, you cultivated the God Tree for us two brothers?

But sacrificing a large number of humans, this method I still cannot agree with.

"Hagoromo, and Hakuei, you two idiots! Mother has always been thinking of you two." Black Zetsu, hiding in Kaguya's sleeve, spoke mockingly.

"Mother! No matter what, please save this world! These two are my sons' chakra reincarnations." The Six Paths Sage said.

"This is my world, I will naturally protect her, this needs no saying from you, I will also act against them.

And all the ninjas in this world, after this war ends, I will take back all the chakra on their bodies.

As for your two sons, and you, if you are willing to apologize to me, I can consider sparing your lives." Kaguya spoke.

She also saw that her eldest son was about to completely die, his soul would not survive, she felt a little soft-hearted.

"Mother, I can no longer continue, I am about to completely disappear." The Six Paths Sage said.

"If you apologize to me, I will teach you a sealing technique wedge, allowing you to undergo reincarnation." Kaguya spoke.

Our Otsutsuki clan possesses power beyond human imagination; death for our clan is not a big deal.

"No need! Mother! I have already lived a normal person's life, my life should have ended long ago.

It's just that because of your bloodline, my soul has been allowed to continue." The Six Paths Sage said very calmly.

Because he knows resurrection certainly comes with a price, all resurrections are not perfect, the mother's resurrection method must also consume a life.

"Extremely foolish!" Kaguya's face darkened slightly. She had originally wanted to pity her son, but now she realized she had been overly sentimental.

"Um! Grandma Kaguya! Can't you and Grandpa Six Paths discuss whatever you have? After all, you're mother and son!

There's no need to escalate to this point? I've longed for a mother since childhood, because I had no parents accompanying me when I was young!" Naruto spoke up.

"Now doesn't seem like the time to chat! Shouldn't we deal with the enemy in front of us first?" Sasuke Uchiha said somewhat speechlessly.

At this moment, beside the few people, a portal like a spark suddenly appeared, and Luode walked over with a smile.

Luode's manner of appearance immediately caused tension among the group, especially Kaguya Otsutsuki, who wondered when this guy used space-time ninjutsu, he didn't consume any chakra at all? "Don't be tense, Kaguya Otsutsuki, I'm not your enemy; on the contrary, I can still help you deal with your clansmen." Luode said.

"It seems you know our clan, yet you dare to steal our clan's power—aren't you afraid of inviting retaliation?"

"Hehe, first please allow me to ask a question: are your two sons born from you and an Earth man, or were they born after receiving the blessings of all people?"

Luode suddenly asked a question that left everyone bewildered.

Even Naruto Uzumaki, who was on guard, and Sasuke Uchiha were somewhat stunned.

"Hey! Hey! You guy, who suddenly asks others such a question?" Naruto pointed at Luode and said.

"I am an ascetic; I will not reproduce like you lowly lifeforms. I received the blessings of all people, which allowed me to give birth to two children—one inherited my Byakugan, the other inherited my Rinnegan." Kaguya spoke with a tone of great anger.

Upon hearing this, Luode nodded thoughtfully.

Well! It seems I have arrived in the manga universe, not the anime universe; the Two Brothers of the Six Paths were born after receiving blessings.

The Naruto world, however, does have the concept of parallel universes.
