Naruto: Uchiha is not Raikage!

When I returned to the real world from the Pure Land, it was already late at night.

Kiyoshi and Kaguya Otsutsuki passed through the spatial rift and reappeared in the courtyard of their residence.

Kaguya Otsutsuki stood beside Kiyoshi, her pure white eyes gazing at the bright moon in the night sky. After a long while, she slowly spoke:
"After that, was there a continuous supply of chakra?"

Her voice remained cool and aloof, but it held a hint of anticipation.

Kiyoshi nodded:

"Yes, in the history of the ninja world, what we have never lacked is souls. The chakra carried by these souls will accumulate over time and gather into a considerable amount of power."

He turned to face Kaguya Otsutsuki, gazing at her perfect profile:
"Moreover, unlike the Divine Tree, which requires waiting for its fruit to ripen, the Pure Land will continue to operate. Moreover, in the future, it will not only be able to enter human souls, but any creature with chakra will be able to enter."

Kiyoshi said slowly.

Summoning beasts also possess chakra within their bodies.

Some summoned beasts, and even most ninjas, have a lot of chakra.

The summoning beasts of places like Ryuchi Cave and Mount Myoboku also practice "Sage Chakra," which can make their souls stronger.

This will also allow the sacred tree to receive more nourishment.

Kaguya Otsutsuki remained silent for a moment, then nodded slightly:

"very good."

It was just two simple words, but Kiyoshi could hear the satisfaction in them.

For the Otsutsuki, who crave chakra, what could be more reassuring than a stable source of chakra?

"You have created a cycle."

Kaguya Otsutsuki suddenly spoke.

"Life is born, death occurs, the soul enters the Pure Land, chakra is extracted, and then... perhaps it will return to the world in some form?"

Kiyoshi glanced at her with some surprise:
"That's right. The Pure Land I designed doesn't completely devour souls, but filters out their chakra, leaving only pure souls to reincarnate. Chakra doesn't disappear into thin air; it only flows. The Pure Land is the central hub of this flow system."

Qingsi said calmly.

In the beginning, he needed to completely feed his soul to the divine tree.

But now, Kiyoshi has a more efficient way of doing things, so there is no need to do it this way anymore.

This cycle will not affect the use of "Impure World Reincarnation Technique".

"What about the sacred tree?"

Kaguya Otsutsuki pressed for an answer.

"If the Pure Land can provide a stable supply of chakra, how long would it take to see results?"

Kaguya Otsutsuki remarked that she had never fought such a lucrative battle before!
Kiyoshi smiled slightly and said:

"It can be shortened to one percent or one-thousandth of the original."

Qingsi said calmly.

"!"

Kaguya Otsutsuki glanced at Kiyoshi in surprise; she hadn't expected the efficiency to be so high.

She increasingly trusted her instincts; being with Kiyoshi always seemed to allow her to see a broader picture.

…………

The night was deeper.

Kiyoshi turned and walked into the house, with Kaguya Otsutsuki following naturally.

Entering the bedroom, the room was simple, with only the necessary furniture, but the bed was large and soft, covered with fine quilts and sheets.

No matter what furniture is lacking, Kiyoshi would never lack a bed.

Kaguya Otsutsuki stood by the door, watching Kiyoshi take off his outer robe and hang it on the hanger.

Her gaze fell on his broad shoulders and upright back.

"Kaguya-sama: Love Is War".

Kiyoshi suddenly spoke, but did not turn around.

"You seem to be thinking about a lot of things lately."

Kaguya Otsutsuki did not deny it:
Yes, that's true.

"What are you thinking about?"

"I'm thinking about... what you taught me."

Kaguya Otsutsuki slowly approached.

"I'm thinking about human emotions, about the uses of chakra, about...us."

Kiyoshi turned around to face her. They were very close, close enough to feel each other's breath.

Kaguya Otsutsuki looked up at him, moonlight streaming in from the window, casting dappled light into her pure white eyes.

Her face was unrealistically beautiful in the moonlight; the voluptuous curves characteristic of a mature woman were faintly visible beneath her loose white dress, yet her cold and noble demeanor made her seem unattainable.

"us?"

Qingsi raised his eyebrows.

Kaguya Otsutsuki is almost ready to be cast.

But Kiyoshi always gives off a feeling of deceiving naive and innocent girls.

"Yes."

"You and me, along with Hagoromo Otsutsuki, Hamura Otsutsuki, and Hagoromo, what is this? A family? Or just a temporary group?"

Kiyoshi reached out, his fingertips gently brushing against a strand of white hair beside her cheek, a smile curving his lips:

"What do you think?"

Kaguya Ōtsutsuki remained silent for a long time.

Her eyelashes were long, casting a soft shadow on her eyelids.

Finally, she spoke:

"I don't know, but... I don't want to change the status quo."

This was the first time she had so openly expressed her longing for a certain state.

"Then let's maintain the status quo."

Kiyoshi said.

Their eyes met in the air.

Then, Kaguya Otsutsuki did something that surprised even Kiyoshi.

She tiptoed slightly, tilted her head back, and looked directly at him with her pure white eyes:
"Seiji."

"Ok?"

"Humans...kiss, right? Just like our good morning kiss."

Her question was so direct and frank, as if she were asking an academic question.

But in her eyes, there was a subtle expectation that had never appeared before.

Kiyoshi paused for a moment, then smiled:

"Yes."

"That……"

Do you want to kiss me?

There was no shyness, no coyness, only pure curiosity.

This is Kaguya Otsutsuki; even when learning to express human emotions, she maintains an almost naive frankness.

Kiyoshi did not answer, but responded with his actions.

He lowered his head and kissed her lips.

Despite having tried many times, Kaguya Otsutsuki still hadn't gained any experience.

Her body stiffened for a moment, and her pure white eyes widened slightly.

But soon she relaxed and began to respond awkwardly.

Kiyoshi originally intended to only try it out, but Kaguya Otsutsuki's learning ability exceeded his expectations.

She quickly grasped the basic rhythm and even began to explore on her own.

Her arms had somehow wrapped around Qing Si's neck, and her body pressed close to his, her voluptuous and soft curves completely against his.

To Kiyoshi's surprise, Kaguya Otsutsuki didn't seem to have any intention of stopping.

Her kisses went from awkward to skillful, from passive to active.

It was a pure curiosity, a pure learning, yet also carried a certain instinctive desire.

Yes, they are learning.

People like Kaguya Otsutsuki possess a greater curiosity than ordinary people.

Kiyoshi's hand slid down to her waist, feeling her slender yet strong waist through her clothes.

After an unknown amount of time, Kaguya Otsutsuki finally leaned back slightly, ending the kiss.

Her breathing became somewhat rapid, a moist sheen appeared in her pure white eyes, and a very faint blush rose on her cheeks—an extremely rare reaction for an Otsutsuki.

"So... this is how it feels."

She said softly, feeling that this time seemed different from before.

"How does it feel?"

Kaguya Otsutsuki pondered for a moment:

"It's...peculiar, but not unpleasant."

She paused and added:

"I want to continue."

Kiyoshi laughed:

"Let's stop here for tonight, we have plenty of time."

Kiyoshi plans to use a scarcity marketing strategy.

Kaguya Otsutsuki seemed somewhat disappointed, but she still nodded.

She loosened her arms from around his neck, but remained standing very close, without backing away.

"Go to sleep."

Qing Si said.

The two lay down on the bed, and Kaguya Otsutsuki naturally nestled into Kiyoshi's arms.

This is a habit I've developed over the past few months. It started as simply to sense the chakra within Kiyoshi's body, but now it seems to have taken on a different meaning.

Kiyoshi held her close, feeling the softness and warmth of her body.

Kaguya Otsutsuki buried her face in his chest, her long, pure white hair spreading out and covering the pillow.

"Seiji."

She suddenly spoke.

"Ok?"

"Thank you."

"Thank you for what?"

"Thank you... for letting me experience these things."

Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's voice was very soft.

"As an Otsutsuki, I originally only needed to fulfill my mission. But now, I feel... that living itself seems to have meaning."

Kiyoshi didn't answer, but simply hugged her tighter.

The moonlight flowed quietly, and only the even breathing could be heard in the room.

…………

A few days later, at a residence near the sacred tree.

Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Otsutsuki Hamura stood in the courtyard, looking somewhat hesitant.

"Brother, do we really need to go out so often?"

"Otsutsuki Hamura asked in a low voice."

“Father said we could move around freely, but leaving the sacred tree so frequently…”

Hagoromo Otsutsuki looked into the distance and said:
“Father did allow us to go out, and I want to observe humans more closely. While I can’t completely trust what Gamamaru says, I want to see with my own eyes the changes humans undergo due to chakra.”

"But what about Mother..."

Otsutsuki Hamura still had some concerns.

"My mother seems to be in a good mood lately."

Hagoromo Otsutsuki recalled that when she saw Kaguya Otsutsuki these past few days, Kaguya's expression seemed to have improved considerably.

"Besides, she spends most of her time with her father, so she probably won't care about our whereabouts."

Ultimately, the two reached an agreement to periodically leave the barrier and observe human villages.

Their first stop was naturally the village where Yuzhi lived.

When Hagoromo and Hamura reappeared at the village entrance, Hagoromo was drawing water from the well.

Upon seeing the two of them, her eyes lit up, and she put down the bucket and jogged over.

"Two venerable immortals!"

“No need for that. My name is Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo, and his name is Ōtsutsuki Hamura. He is my younger brother.”

Otsutsuki Hagoromo spoke.

"how are things?"

"Thanks to the Ancestor, my grandmother has fully recovered! And after the village found out that I can use chakra, everyone is very envious, and several young people want to learn as well."

A smile spread across Yuri's face.

"Our ancestor was truly great; he not only saved our grandmother but also bestowed upon us such power."

Her eyes were filled with pure adoration and gratitude.

Looking at her excited expression, Hagoromo Otsutsuki felt a complex mix of emotions.

He remembered what Gamamaru had said, and the possible consequences of the Divine Tree.

"Haori".

He suddenly spoke.

"How much do you know about your father... the Ancestor?"

Haori paused for a moment:
"Understand? The Ancestor is the sage who bestowed chakra upon us, the god who saved our Ancestral Land. He is powerful, benevolent, and omnipotent."

"What if he... isn't entirely as you imagine?"

"It's something that Hagoromo Otsutsuki said unconsciously."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he regretted them.

Hagoromo's expression became confused:
"Lord Hagoromo Otsutsuki, what do you mean by this? How could the progenitor possibly..."

"nothing."

Hagoromo Otsutsuki interrupted in time, managing a weak smile.

“I was just saying it offhand. Of course, your father is kind. He saved your grandmother, didn’t he?”

Although Hagoromo still had doubts, seeing that Hagoromo Otsutsuki was unwilling to talk about it, she stopped asking.

She warmly invited the two of them to her home, saying that her grandmother had made some snacks.

For the rest of the time, Hagoromo Otsutsuki seemed somewhat distracted.

He observed Yuri's every move, watching her almost blind worship of Kiyoshi, and the doubts in his heart grew like weeds.

Gamamaru said that his father might have been hiding the truth about the sacred tree.

Gamamaru said that the Chakra Fruit would drain the life force of a planet.

If all of this is true... then why did the father pass on chakra to humans?
"Brother."

As they left the village, Otsutsuki Hamura spoke in a low voice.

"You almost let it slip." "I know."

Hagoromo Otsutsuki sighed.

"I'm just... a little confused."

"My father taught us to think independently."

"That's what Hagoromo Otsutsuki said."

"But independent thinking doesn't mean doubting your father; perhaps those toads are the ones with ulterior motives."

"Maybe."

There is no dispute about Hagoromo Otsutsuki.

But the seeds of doubt have already been sown, and they are not so easy to uproot.

Another month has passed.

During this month, Kiyoshi's relationship with Kaguya Otsutsuki underwent a subtle change.

That morning, Kiyoshi woke up to find Kaguya Otsutsuki already up and standing by his bed.

She was wearing a new white dress, her long hair cascading down her back like a waterfall, and she was holding a black outer robe in her hand—it was Kiyoshi's clothes.

"woke up?"

Kaguya Otsutsuki turned around, her pure white eyes looking at him.

"Ah."

Kiyoshi sat up, looking at the clothes in her hand with some surprise.

"What are you..."

"Let me help you get dressed."

Kaguya Otsutsuki spoke as if it were a matter of course, as if stating a fact.

Kiyoshi raised an eyebrow:

Where did you learn that?

Kaguya Ōtsutsuki took a thin booklet from her sleeve and handed it to Kiyoshi.

It was a crudely printed storybook with the title "Daily Life of a Loving Couple" on the cover.

"Found in the market of the Ancestral Kingdom."

Kaguya Otsutsuki explained.

She would occasionally go to the Land of Ancestors with Kiyoshi, stay there, and sometimes buy some daily necessities, including this book.

Of course, they don't need to pay.

"It says that wives should help their husbands change clothes, prepare meals, and do housework. This is an obligation in the relationship of procreation."

Kaguya Otsutsuki spoke to Kiyoshi.

Kiyoshi took the storybook, flipped through it, and was both amused and exasperated.

This is clearly a popular book written by humans, with exaggerated and stereotypical content. I never expected that Kaguya Otsutsuki would actually take it seriously.

"You don't need to do these things."

Kiyoshi said.

"Our relationship is not the kind that ordinary people would define."

“But I want to do it.” Kaguya Otsutsuki’s answer was simple.

She approached the bedside and unfolded her outer robe:

"Raise your hands."

Seeing her serious expression, Kiyoshi finally cooperated and raised his arm.

Kaguya Ōtsutsuki draped an outer robe over him, her movements somewhat clumsy but very careful.

Her fingers occasionally touched his skin, cool and soft.

Because of the height difference, Kiyoshi could see the view inside her slightly open collar as soon as he lowered his head.

Her voluptuous curves, her snow-white skin, and the subtle, unseen depths of her soul.

Kaguya Otsutsuki seemed to notice his gaze, but she did not flinch, and simply continued what she was doing calmly.

Her expression remained aloof, but a faint blush appeared at the base of her ears.

It's just a shell.

She herself was surprised by her current reaction.

"All right."

Kaguya Otsutsuki tied his sash, stepped back to examine him, and nodded in satisfaction.

Kiyoshi looked down at his neatly arranged robes, then looked up at Kaguya Otsutsuki.

The morning light streamed in through the window, dancing on her pure white hair. She stood there, beautiful as a goddess, yet doing the most mundane things.

This contrast is captivating.

The legendary goddess of the rabbit.

"Thank you."

Qing Si said.

Kaguya Otsutsuki nodded slightly, then turned around and began making the bed.

Her movements were still a bit clumsy, but she was very serious.

Kiyoshi looked at her for a while before speaking:

"I'm going to the Land of Ancestors today to teach some new ninjutsu. Would you like to come with me?"

Kaguya Otsutsuki shook her head:
"I'll stay home. I don't really want to go to places frequented by ordinary people."

Kaguya Otsutsuki.

If it weren't for the fact that things weren't from ordinary people, she wouldn't want to leave this place at all.

As Kiyoshi looked at Kaguya Otsutsuki, a thought involuntarily arose in his mind.

The Goddess of Rabbit is a homebody!
"it is good."

Kiyoshi left his residence alone and headed to the land of the ancestors.

During this month, he regularly taught the use of chakra in the Land of Ancestors.

Initially, it was about basic refining and control, followed by simple medical ninjutsu and basic ninjutsu.

But today, he intends to teach some offensive ninjutsu.

One hundred people have already gathered at the training ground of the Ancestral Kingdom.

These are all people who have been selected and have good chakra control.

Haori was among them, standing in the front row, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Kiyoshi.

"Today, I will teach you a few practical ninjutsu techniques."

Qing Si got straight to the point.

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique, Wind Release: Great Breakthrough, Lightning Release: Earth Walk – these three techniques are suitable for beginners in actual combat."

He demonstrated the hand seals, and a huge fireball, howling wind, and spreading lightning appeared in turn, eliciting gasps of surprise.

"Don't be lazy."

Kiyoshi looked at the crowd on the training field and said:

"When necessary, the chakra and ninjutsu you've trained will give you the ability to fight off threats."

The haori watched intently, trying out hand seals.

She was very talented; after a few attempts, she was able to spew out fireballs the size of a fist.

Kiyoshi noticed her progress and nodded:

"Good, keep practicing."

Encouraged, Haori worked even harder.

Her gaze remained fixed on Kiyoshi, her eyes filled with not only admiration but also other emotions.

That kind of girl's admiration for a powerful being is mixed with gratitude and longing.

Especially since Kiyoshi looks so young, you can't tell his age at all.

He just seemed very handsome and tall.

Kiyoshi saw it, but didn't pay any attention.

Human emotions are always complex, and he doesn't need to respond to each one.

The power of the Sharingan is now deep enough.

What he needs to accumulate is the power of the "Rinnegan".

Now we're just half a step away from reaching that level.

……

Another month has passed.

Hagoromo Otsutsuki returned to Hagoromo's village.

During this time, he came more and more frequently and became more and more familiar with Yuzhi.

He found that after getting to know her, he inexplicably began to look forward to seeing this human girl, to seeing her bright smile, and to hearing her tell stories about the village.

After all, she was the only human girl he had ever come into contact with.

Today, as soon as he arrived at the village entrance, he sensed the fluctuation of chakra.

It wasn't ordinary refining, but rather the fluctuations released by ninjutsu.

Hagoromo Otsutsuki felt a pang of anxiety and quickly walked into the village.

He saw that in the open space outside the village, Yuzhi was standing in front of a group of villagers, forming hand seals.

"Art fire escape ho fireball!"

A fireball half a meter in diameter shot out of her mouth and hit a wolf not far away.

The wolf howled and fell to the ground, flames erupting from its body, and soon it went still.

The villagers cheered:
"Haori is amazing!"

"Truly worthy of being a disciple of an immortal!"

Yuri wiped the sweat from her forehead, a smile on her face, but a hint of complexity in her eyes. This was the first time she had used ninjutsu to kill a life.

Otsutsuki Hagoromo stood at a distance, his pure white eyes filled with shock.

Killing and slaughter.

The chakra passed down by his father was used for killing.

In his mind, chakra should be a power that connects hearts and promotes understanding.

My father initially taught me medical ninjutsu and some basic ninjutsu. Why is he now teaching me ninjutsu that is more offensive?

If chakra is used for fighting and killing, how is that any different from the disaster brought about by the Divine Tree, as Gamamaru said?
"Lord Hagoromo Otsutsuki?"

The haori spotted him and jogged over.

"You came!"

Looking at her excited face, and then at the charred wolf carcass, Hagoromo Otsutsuki's voice was somewhat hoarse:

"You just... killed it."

Hagoromo's smile faded slightly.
"It attacked the village's sheepfold. If it wasn't stopped, people would die. I used the ninjutsu that the Ancestor taught me, and it was very effective."

"But that's life."

"Otsutsuki Hagoromo said."

"Chakra should not be used to take lives."

Haori looked at him, puzzled.
"But the Ancestor said that chakra is also a protective force, protecting the village and protecting family members. Isn't that right?"

“Protection can be achieved in other ways…”

Hagoromo Otsutsuki wanted to refute, but found himself unable to continue.

If a wolf attacks a village, what's a better way to deal with it than killing it?

A trap?
Drive them away?

In emergency situations, ninjutsu is indeed the most effective means of defense.

But he felt an inexplicable unease.

The chakra passed down by my father should be something nobler, and should not be tainted by bloodshed.

"Lord Hagoromo Otsutsuki, what's wrong?"

"Haori asked with concern."

"Something doesn't look right with you."

"It's nothing." Hagoromo Otsutsuki forced a smile.

"I...I'll head back now."

He turned and left, his steps somewhat hurried.

Hagoromo watched his departing figure, his brows furrowed slightly. She sensed that Lord Hagoromo was acting strangely today, as if he had some different views on the use of ninjutsu.

But that was a ninjutsu taught by the Ancestor, so how could there be a problem?
…………

Beside the sacred tree.

When Hagoromo Otsutsuki returned, he looked very unwell.

Hamura Otsutsuki was practicing the Gentle Fist style passed down from their father when he saw his older brother's expression. He stopped and asked:

"Brother, what's wrong?"

"Hamura Otsutsuki, I see him..."

Otsutsuki Hagoromo took a deep breath. "Hagoromo used the ninjutsu taught by her father to kill a wild wolf."

Ōtsutsuki Hamura paused for a moment:
"and then?"

He didn't sense anything was wrong.

"That's killing!"

Hagoromo Otsutsuki's voice was somewhat excited.

"The chakra passed down by my father should be the power to connect hearts, not to be used for killing!"

Ōtsutsuki Hamura was silent for a moment:

“Brother, wild beasts attack the village, and killing them is to protect humanity. What’s wrong with that?”

For the first time, Hamura Otsutsuki felt that his older brother's thought process seemed somewhat different from his own.

"But that's chakra. If that power is used for killing, how is that any different from what Gamamaru said?"

Hagoromo Otsutsuki was somewhat out of control.

"If chakra brings conflict and death, is it good or bad?"

"Why did Father spread this message? Why specifically give it to those mortals?"

Hagoromo Otsutsuki couldn't figure it out.

"Brother, you're too excited."

"Hamura Otsutsuki said calmly."

My father taught us that power itself is neither good nor evil; it depends on the user. Medical ninjutsu can save lives or kill them. The same ninjutsu can be good for protection or evil for aggression. The key lies in the heart, not the technique.

"But……"

Hagoromo Otsutsuki was about to say something when he was interrupted by a cold voice.

What are you arguing about?

Kaguya Otsutsuki appeared here at some unknown time.

She was dressed in a plain white kimono, her long, pure white hair flowing freely, and her eyes were devoid of any warmth.

She had clearly overheard their conversation.

Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo and Ōtsutsuki Hamura bowed simultaneously:
"Mother." (End of Chapter)
