Naruto: I Can Take People Through the Ninja World in the Future-Chapter 495: Coercion and Enticement

"They... are coming?!?"

Kaguya usually calm, trembled slightly this time, her brows furrowing unconsciously, revealing her fear.

Even though she had fully consumed the God Tree Fruit, even though she had become the Source of Chakra, her fear of the Ōtsutsuki clan remained deeply ingrained.

Undeniably, compared to the entire Ōtsutsuki clan, any individual was too small.

"Yes. In about 32 years, the first investigation team will arrive on Earth..."

Lux didn't hide anything, directly telling the truth.

In Parallel World 4, the arrival time of Urashiki and Momoshiki was only about 30 years away.

To subdue Kaguya, a little intimidation was definitely necessary.

Besides, everything Lux said was true.

"That fast?!?"

Kaguya was even more surprised.

Thirty years was a very long time for ninjas, enough for two generations. But for the Ōtsutsuki, it was too short, like taking a short nap before it arrived.

"How long has it been since I was sealed?"

"More than a thousand years."

"How can that be? It's been that long..."

Kaguya's eyes widened, not expecting it to have been thousands of years.

No wonder the clan's hunting squad was almost here.

A thousand years wasn't short for the Ōtsutsuki either; normal planting missions only lasted a few hundred years at most. During this time, she and Isshiki hadn't returned or reported, so the clan would definitely investigate.

But all this time, where was Zetsu?

Why hadn't her third son revived her yet?

What had he been doing all this time?

Shouldn't he have tried to save her?

Why had he delayed for so long?

Could he have already died?

"Confused why Zetsu didn't save you earlier?" Lux guessed directly, asking casually.

"You know Zetsu?"

"Of course."

"He actually...?"

"Was killed by Isshiki long ago!"

Lux naturally blamed Isshiki. After all, he was dead and couldn't possibly come back to clarify.

Even if he were alive, Kaguya wouldn't believe her enemy's words.

"Is that so? Poor child, I'm sorry..."

Kaguya began to cry again, her face gloomy and sad. Although Zetsu looked strange and was her creation, he still carried part of her will and memories, like a third son.

His loss was certainly sad.

But since Isshiki killed Zetsu, there was nothing she could do; Zetsu indeed had no chance of winning against Isshiki.

And the main problem now wasn't Zetsu.

But how to face the upcoming clan hunting squad!!!

◆━⊰✧⊱━◆

"Why, so afraid of the clan's hunting squad?"

"No one can escape the clan's hunt..."

Kaguya's expression was bleak as she answered softly.

No one understood the power of the Ōtsutsuki Clan better than her. It wasn't something that could be resisted alone, even if she ate ten God Tree Fruits. Faced with the clan's accumulation over millions of years, she was still like a drop of water in the ocean.

"Then why not run?"

Lux was curious. If she knew she couldn't win, shouldn't she have fled the Ninja World? Why did Kaguya stay here?

"Can't escape! Every Ōtsutsuki's position can be tracked by the clan's elite. Wherever you run, there's only death..."

The temptation of the God Tree Fruit was so great that the clan's elite definitely knew.

Those who dared to send members on planting missions must have already prepared safeguards.

Once their position was tracked, where could they flee? They would eventually be found.

Hide in another dimension?

Isshiki and Momoshiki couldn't track dimensions, but the clan's elite had many ways.

Otherwise, Kaguya would have already fled or hidden.

"So you chose to stay in the ninja world to fight?"

"Yes."

"You think Zetsu's army from the Infinite Tsukuyomi can defeat the clan's hunters? You know their strength, right? Even all the Zetsu combined aren't Isshiki's match..."

Faced with this question, Kaguya clenched her fists, seeming hesitant, considering whether to be honest.

Soon, she decided. After all, Isshiki was dead, and she had eaten the God Tree Fruit; this was a true betrayal, and her conflict with the clan was irreconcilable.

If they were already mortal enemies, what else was there to worry about?

It was better to tell this mysterious person; maybe she could make him an ally?

From the way he imprisoned her and allowed her to kill Isshiki, it seemed he wasn't an enemy...

So Kaguya was honest: "When the clan discovers that the planting team is missing or abnormal, they don't directly send a large army, but an 'investigation team' first to check before making a decision."

"The investigation team usually consists of two people, and their strength isn't too overwhelming. Later, with the Ten-Tails holding one back, I can defeat the other... By defeating and absorbing them, I can become stronger and face the next attack!"

This was Kaguya's plan.

She knew she couldn't fight the clan's hunting squad, but stopping the investigation team was still possible.

If successful, she could continue to absorb and grow stronger.

Step by step, fight against more hunters.

Until she was finally free from the clan's control and gained the strength to defend herself...

"A good idea..."

Lux nodded in agreement. In fact, Kaguya hadn't misjudged. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

In the future, the first investigation team would only be Momoshiki and Kinshiki. Urashiki? Just an addition...

With Kaguya's strength + the Ten-Tails, victory was very likely.

After absorbing Momoshiki and Kinshiki, she could become even stronger, forming a positive cycle...

This was better than fleeing or hiding. For Kaguya's simple mind, being able to come up with this crazy plan was quite good.

"But there's one problem. The Ten-Tails is a biological weapon created by the Ōtsutsuki. They must have a way to control it, right? For example, genjutsu? How do you ensure the Ten-Tails is truly obedient to you?"

Kaguya had the answer.

"Zetsu was created for this! As offerings to the God Tree, their hatred and souls after death were swallowed by the Ten-Tails. If there is enough hatred, it will erode the Ten-Tails' consciousness. At that time, besides me, the genjutsu of other clan members cannot control the Ten-Tails!"

Kaguya didn't expect the weak Zetsu to be able to fight the Ōtsutsuki; the reason she made the God Tree swallow so many humans was only to ensure that the Ten-Tails wouldn't be controlled by other Ōtsutsuki.

Cruel, bloody, cold...

But it seemed this was the only way she could think of to fight the clan's hunters.

"Is that so? This is your plan?"

Lux was slightly amazed.

The Rinnegan could already easily control the nine Tailed Beasts and the perfect Ten-Tails; this was also one of the reasons the Ōtsutsuki weren't afraid of the Ten-Tails.

But no matter how strong the Rinnegan was, it was difficult to control hundreds of thousands or millions of consciousnesses at once.

By inserting a large number of human consciousnesses into the Ten-Tails, ordinary Ōtsutsuki could no longer use genjutsu to control it.

At that time, the Ten-Tails with infinite regeneration, terrifying power, abundant chakra, and genjutsu immunity could definitely hold back one Ōtsutsuki!

Giving Kaguya enough time to defeat the other.

Truly a good method!

Indeed, it had to be Princess Kaguya who understood the Ten-Tails and the Ōtsutsuki better.
