"Power is something every Ōtsutsuki craves, and Chakra Edible Creation makes many things possible."
"So…"
"So there's the path to Godhood, and the Dark Forest Law, and everything as it is now. If these things were to spread back…"
At this point, Takemi stopped.
If this were to spread back, the entire Ōtsutsuki clan would usher in a dark era.
The Ōtsutsuki's pursuit of power was endless, especially for beings with long lifespans like them, only power was the most real thing. Even in death, they were unwilling to stop.
Isshiki, even when he was dying, still used his soul to tell Code to continuously plant God Trees on other planets. Constantly devouring planets and lives in the universe to evolve, until the moment he becomes a god.
Such obsession could only be described as madness.
If they knew about this path to Godhood…
The consequences, Takemi didn't even dare to imagine.
"Moreover, if one of these three can survive the Ninja World Battle Royale and return." Takemi rubbed his chin, muttering to himself.
"Perhaps, it could trigger the Ōtsutsuki's dark turmoil?"
"So that's how it is?"
In her thoughts, Kaguya also understood at this moment.
"This is your ultimate goal…"
"Mm."
Takemi nodded, smiling as he said.
"This is my territory, how can I allow them to mess around? And your power is also very important, after all, you've devoured a Chakra fruit."
"Is this what you once called help?" Kaguya asked with a frown, and Takemi didn't hide it.
"That's right, I said we are natural allies. You want to escape their pursuit, and I'm pretty much the same, except my method is more special."
Special?
Making all Ōtsutsuki feel uneasy was indeed very special.
Kaguya silently looked at Takemi. After a long silence, she spoke faintly, "Now, I believe you truly are an Ōtsutsuki born in this world."
"?"
Takemi was stunned for a moment, and Kaguya returned to her cold demeanor.
"You are like Hagoromo, cruel, ruthless, even cold-blooded."
"…"
"If you weren't born in this world, it would probably be very difficult for you to reach such a degree."
"…"
"Hagoromo, ah, it seems I underestimated you. Now it seems you won."
"…"
Takemi took a deep breath, he was already considering whether to go back to the moon to find this woman's main body. Then, turn her into a pill and let her ascend the path to Godhood with him…
Takemi's situation was relatively smooth, but inside the Ōtsutsuki Exclusive Passage, the situation was a bit complicated.
"So, you want to team up?"
Momoshiki vigilantly watched Isshiki and Urashiki. He never dreamed he would encounter these two in this hellhole.
The most crucial one was Isshiki, after all, it was this guy who made Takeshiki think of the path to Godhood. He awakened the devil in Takeshiki's heart.
Facing this man, even if he had taken a step to Godhood, he had to be extra careful.
"That's right, we team up."
Isshiki looked at Momoshiki's wary expression. Although he was expressionless, his fists couldn't help but clench again.
He knew that this guy, like Urashiki, must have believed Takeshiki's rhetoric. But the problem was, Momoshiki had really done it and he himself hadn't done anything yet.
What right did he have to make that expression?
"You've seen Takeshiki's strength. If we don't team up, it will be difficult to survive against him. This is not an exaggeration."
"Takeshiki is more terrifying than imagined. I think you've already experienced it, even if you devoured Kinshiki."
Urashiki snorted coldly. He still looked the same as before. But he didn't notice that his gaze towards Momoshiki and Isshiki had already subtly changed.
"He not only devoured my power but also learned unimaginable things in this world. Before this, I was no match for him."
"Learned things?"
Momoshiki wasn't very willing to listen to their nonsense. In his opinion, these two had ulterior motives, but for now, he could only play along.
"What could be learned on a planet occupied by lower beings?"
"Don't underestimate them, the situation here is very special."
Isshiki looked at Momoshiki, disdainful in his heart but still explaining, though he also had other calculations in mind.
Momoshiki was initially disdainful, but slowly his expression became solemn.
"Thousand-year blood war? Constant combat updates? Accumulation of a thousand years of experience and combat techniques?"
He murmured, what exactly was going on with this cursed world?
"Otherwise, why do you think I lost?" Urashiki spoke disdainfully, his fist slightly clenched.
"This world seems to have been manipulated into fighting for a thousand years, accumulating unimaginable things. Takeshiki won by relying on this."
"This is insane…"
Momoshiki murmured, he couldn't help but curse.
"Which lunatic caused all this?!"
"Kaguya's son." Isshiki naturally explained.
"Perhaps he thought I wasn't dead, perhaps he was worried about his clan members coming, so…"
But halfway through, he couldn't continue because he noticed that both Momoshiki and Urashiki were looking at him with an expression of 'you're lying'.
This almost made him lose his composure, and Momoshiki even asked playfully, "Then what about her son? Why don't I sense him?"
"He's already dead…"
Isshiki told the truth, but he saw disdain appearing in the eyes of the other two, which immediately made his fists clench.
Right now, whatever he said was wrong and he had a premonition that if he continued, it would be 'How did he die?', 'Did you do it?', 'As expected, you devoured Kaguya!' and so on.
"Let's not talk about these useless things."
Isshiki took a deep breath and asked again, "Now we need to team up. What do you think?"
"Team up, huh…"
Momoshiki pondered for a moment, then finally nodded.
"No problem. It seems we really need to team up to deal with that guy, Takeshiki."
Actually, Momoshiki was somewhat unwilling, after all, all Ōtsutsuki were proud. Teaming up to deal with one person, Momoshiki was naturally unwilling. But in the current situation, even if he wasn't very willing, there was no other way.
Takeshiki was terrifyingly strong, his strength exceeded imagination. Moreover, Momoshiki felt that teaming up might not necessarily be a bad thing, after all…
'I've already devoured Kinshiki, so among the three of us, I should be the strongest.'
Momoshiki had his own little plan. Looking at his two 'allies' in front of him, he smiled.
'Staying stable for a while is good for me. As long as I recover and then deal with Takeshiki, then…'
The path to Godhood was right before his eyes.
"A wise choice."
Isshiki finally showed a slight smile. He suddenly felt that Momoshiki was alright. At least, he didn't press about Kaguya's matter.
Although he knew that Momoshiki probably thought he had also done the same as him…
But it didn't matter much now. After witnessing all this, he truly wanted to do it.
The Ōtsutsuki strive for power, and constantly strive to become the Ōtsutsuki God.
Since a path has now been discovered, a true path to Godhood that has been verified, why wouldn't he do it?
'Besides, if I don't do it, they will. To survive, I must do this.'
