From beginning to end, Minamikawa Yuu believed that Kaguya would never harm him.
This was a confidence cultivated through many years of being together.
Over those years, they had long since become the people closest to each other.
Anyone else in the world might harm him, but Kaguya before him was the exception.
In the following time, Kaguya began preparing for the implantation of the Karma.
As a vital means of reincarnation for the Ōtsutsuki Clan, planting the Karma was not a casual affair; the host needed to be carefully selected.
If one did not have enough tolerance for the Chakra of the Ōtsutsuki Clan, they simply could not bear the power of the Karma, and their body would collapse and die instantly if they weren't careful.
In this regard, Minamikawa Yuu's basic conditions were not considered good.
Fortunately, his body had been nourished by Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's Chakra for many years, making him somewhat adapted to her energy.
Even so, the implantation of the Karma did not go smoothly.
It took Kaguya quite a bit of effort to plant a fragmented Karma into Minamikawa Yuu's body.
For Minamikawa Yuu, this was already the limit.
If it went any further, his body would collapse.
"Is this the Karma?"
Standing in place, Minamikawa Yuu raised his hand.
In the center of his palm, a fragmented diamond-shaped mark emerged, possessing a unique sense of beauty; it was very distinct and filled with a mysterious aura.
As the Karma was planted, an aura similar to Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's began to emerge from his body.
The power belonging to Kaguya was remodeling his body, causing changes to occur within him.
He became younger, as if returning to the days of his youth.
This change even came as a bit of a surprise to Kaguya.
Fortunately, everything went relatively smoothly, and no major accidents occurred.
Once the entire process was over, she also breathed a long sigh of relief.
"I have a feeling..."
Standing there, she whispered while looking at Minamikawa Yuu, "Our children are about to be born..."
Perhaps due to the nature of the Ōtsutsuki Clan itself, or perhaps because Kaguya had consumed the chakra fruit, her pregnancy was much longer than imagined.
Ten years had passed since then, and Kaguya had still not given birth.
But now, Kaguya finally had an intuition.
Her children were about to be born; it wouldn't be much longer now.
"Are they about to be born?"
Hearing Kaguya's words, Minamikawa Yuu nodded with a smile on his face.
If nothing unexpected happened, the children in Kaguya's womb would be the future Six Paths Sage.
It was quite a marvelous thought.
In the Ninja World where his main body resided, the Six Paths Sage was an absolute titan of a figure.
But in this world, the Six Paths Sage was his future child.
Some things were just that subtle, giving one an inexplicable feeling.
Minamikawa Yuu felt a wave of emotion as various thoughts flashed through his mind.
Time continued to pass, slowly flowing by.
In the second year, Kaguya officially went into labor.
After a night had passed, she gave birth to two baby boys.
Following the naming conventions of the Ōtsutsuki Clan, she named the two children Hagoromo and Hamura, respectively.
These were the future Six Paths Sage and Ōtsutsuki Hamura.
When the two children were born, Minamikawa Yuu observed them specifically for a while.
As the future Six Paths Sage, Hagoromo's eyes were just ordinary eyes, not the Rinnegan.
This differed from the records in the original story, further confirming Minamikawa Yuu's hypothesis about parallel dimensions.
Because in the original storyline, Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo's Rinnegan should have been innate.
The reason for this discrepancy was likely because in the original storyline, the Six Paths Sage was conceived by Ōtsutsuki Kaguya alone, possessing pure Ōtsutsuki blood.
In this world, Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo was born from him and Kaguya, possessing mortal blood within his body, which led to this change.
As for Hamura, he inherited Kaguya's Byakugan.
The potential within both children was immense.
Originally, because of him being a mortal father, the lineage of these two children should have been somewhat diluted.
However, because Kaguya had consumed the chakra fruit while nurturing them, they benefited from it and each obtained vast potential.
Though they looked ordinary at the moment, the potential contained within their bodies was enormous; once fully developed, they would not be weaker than the bloodline of the direct descendants of the Otsutsuki Main Family.
"These two children have each inherited a part of my abilities,"
Kaguya said, watching the two children before her.
Both Hagoromo and Hamura inherited the pure Ōtsutsuki bloodline from Kaguya, making them innate Ōtsutsuki.
However, the abilities they inherited from Kaguya were different.
As the elder brother, Hagoromo inherited more of the power from the chakra fruit within Kaguya's body, so his Byakugan would remain hidden, and there was a high possibility he could awaken the Rinnegan in the future.
As the younger brother, Hamura inherited the pure Ōtsutsuki bloodline within Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, so he possessed the Byakugan from birth, and it was possible for him to take it a step further and evolve the Tenseigan, which was extremely rare even within the Ōtsutsuki Clan.
"Thank you for your hard work."
Setting the two children down, Minamikawa Yuu walked over to Kaguya and took her into his arms.
The two of them enjoyed these peaceful years, quietly letting things settle.
In the time that followed, the years slowly passed.
After the birth of the two brothers, the entire Land of Ancestors celebrated.
Festivals were held everywhere, with the people rejoicing that the King had heirs.
In the blink of an eye, another dozen or so years passed.
The brothers, Hagoromo and Hamura, began to grow up.
As time passed, their bodies grew, and their progress in strength far exceeded that of ordinary people.
Because they possessed the Ōtsutsuki bloodline, even if they didn't actively cultivate or study, their power would increase day by day, making them innately much stronger than anyone else.
And unlike their mother Kaguya, as Minamikawa Yuu's children, they were very eager to learn and worked very hard.
With innate talent beyond ordinary people and sufficient effort on their part, their growth rate was incredibly fast.
In just over a dozen years, they became powerhouses in the worldly sense.
Within the Land of Ancestors, aside from a few people including Kaguya, no one was their match.
One day, they came to the royal palace of the Land of Ancestors and found Minamikawa Yuu.
"You want to go out and travel for training?"
In the palace, Minamikawa Yuu was still handling government affairs. Hearing the news from the two brothers, he looked up in surprise.
"Yes, Father."
Before Minamikawa Yuu, the brothers Hagoromo and Hamura were very respectful.
"You once said that everything needs practice to be meaningful. We have studied in the palace for many years and feel it is time to go out and see the world."
Hagoromo spoke loudly, showing great enthusiasm.
Compared to him, the younger brother Hamura appeared more composed, but he shared the same sentiment.
