Sixteen Years Old, The Fourth Generation of Mizukage

On the way to bid farewell to Shion and Maitreya mother and daughter, and left the ghost country to go to the wind country, Uzumaki Naruto kept a frowning and contemplative expression all the way, until the gale with scorching heat and sand grains in the wind country When the call came, he suddenly woke up from his contemplation.

"I thought you were going to keep that sad and thoughtful look until you meet the ninjas of Sand Hidden..."

Kaguya Rei determined the positions of the two of them according to the surrounding oasis, and asked Uzumaki Naruto in a leisurely tone:

"The fact that the power of sprites can be used by people, to you who have reached a settlement with Nine Tails who is the incarnation of hatred, and have been recognized by all tailed beasts, does it really have such a big impact, Naruto Uzumaki people?"

"It still feels different after all."

Naruto Uzumaki exhaled, subconsciously touched the seal on his abdomen, and the Nine-Tails Nine Lama who was asleep inside and didn't know when he would wake up again.

"The words of the Nine Lamas are the existence that has lived in my body since I can't remember anything. For me, he is a part of my body from the beginning. Even if I hate it because everyone rejects and hates me I passed the Nine Lamas, and was almost taken away by him... I didn't feel so clearly that it was an external object independent of me."

"But in the case of sprites, the hostile, evil, and uncontrollable impression is too vivid. Even now, I still subconsciously feel that its power is far more dangerous than the tailed beast... "

"You think so..." Kaguya turned back, looked thoughtfully at Uzumaki Naruto's bandaged right hand, "For you and Uchiha Sasuke, the power of the Otsutsuki clan, It should be similar, an unreliable external thing?"

"Why do you say that?"

Uzumaki Naruto looked at Kaguya Rei, whose white hair, white eyes, and double horns were obviously not what the Kaguya clan should have, the doubts that had been hidden in his heart gradually revealed, and his expression gradually became more serious .

"Because I personally feel that with the current level of you and Uchiha Sasuke, there is a high possibility that you will be instantly killed on the spot by Ancestor Kaguya who was resurrected through Infinity Tsukiyomi."

Kaguya spread out her hands, her tone was flat:

"If it is said that in the peaceful era after Kaguya Otsutsuki was sealed, you and Sasuke Uchiha have already stood at the peak, and there is no reason and need to continue chasing stronger power, this statement is still tenable...

Then after Datong Mutaji and Jinshi came to the ninja world, I really can't think of other reasons to explain that the two of you still haven't tried to improve your hard power. "

Kaguya Rei's eye sockets burst out with dazzling azure blue light, and the majestic pupil power of Tenseiyan awakened along with his will, just a simple sweep of the line of sight has already produced a seemingly continuous The pressure that can freeze space, and Uzumaki Naruto's body is instinctively tense and alert because of this coercion that is enough to dissolve all crowd tactics.

Naruto Uzumaki couldn't help laughing wryly at his somewhat unbearable reaction. He raised his right hand made of interstitial cells and clenched it tightly, then asked in a heavy tone:

"Peach style, golden style, one style, plus Kaguya who you have tried to turn an enemy into a friend, the information you know about the Otsutsuki clan should be considered quite sufficient and substantial, four generations Water Shadow."

"But have you ever thought about how the incomparable power of the Datongmu clan came about?"

"They rely on constantly harvesting the life of the planets in the universe, using the ten tails to continuously devour the information and chakras of one planet after another, and finally become such a powerful and difficult to kill monster."

"Relying on the strength of the ten tails, Otsutsuki built a chakra system that is similar in shape to a huge pyramid. The more you want to go up in the chakra system, get a higher position and stronger power, the more It is necessary to gather as much chakra as possible on oneself...

And if Sasuke and I want to gain more power than we have now, we will inevitably use the power of the ten tails. "

"But if we used the ten tails to collect chakra... What is the difference between us and Kaguya, and those Otsutsugi who regard life as nothing and don't know what love is?"

Uzumaki Naruto's answer was straightforward and frank, and at the same time, he almost explicitly pointed out what hidden dangers may erupt at a certain moment in the future after Kaguya Rei has gradually improved her physical configuration to the current level, but Kaguya Lian didn't pay attention to the explicit instructions, but asked plainly:

"But power is just power after all. Whether it is sealed up or kept at a distance, their nature as power and as a tool in the hands of people will not change."

"If you put aside the forces identified as threats just because you think they are in danger, then no matter how many decades or hundreds of years pass, people will still know nothing about those forces, gain nothing, and still only know about them. You can go back and forth in the old framework left by your predecessors, and you can't open up a new path."

"Do you really think it's a good thing to seal away dangerous powers and prevent anyone from researching and developing them, Naruto Uzumaki?"

After being silent for a while, Naruto Uzumaki nodded firmly.

"Even if it is to seal it forever and turn it into a mystery that can never be solved, it is better than letting people face the abyss that leads people to fall, and sink into it one after another."

"The power itself is indeed just a tool in the hands of those who use it as you said, but ah, some powers are inherently easy to make people who approach it go extreme, stubborn, depraved, and finally commit irreparable crimes The existence of ... For this kind of power, it is the correct choice to seal it in a place where the sun cannot be seen forever."

"Tsk."

Hui Yelian shook his head, and looked up at the sky speechlessly.

"Mistake, I thought I would take you to the kingdom of ghosts for a while, and take a look at the status quo after they tried to control the power of monsters, so that you could understand the current situation of the ninja world more clearly... Sure enough Should I still talk to Uchiha Sasuke about this?"

"I understand what you mean, Fourth Mizukage..." Uzumaki Naruto pursed his lips, his eyes flashing with helpless brilliance, "However, the reason why the witches in the kingdom of ghosts dare to break the seal of the sprites and try The most fundamental reason for trying to control the power of monsters is because there is such an absolute powerhouse like you who can suppress everything at any time in the ninja world, right?"

"No, the most fundamental reason is that they have no other choice in the face of the changes of the times that have come."

Kaguya Rei denied Uzumaki Naruto's speech, stared at the opponent's eyes with those eyes that were as bright as blue stars, and said in a flat but powerful tone:

"The kingdom of ghosts is weak and barren. The priestesses who lead the kingdom of ghosts can neither influence the will of the leaders of outside powers, nor can they change the general trend of the era when the wind of change blowing from Kirigakure will sweep the entire ninja world...

Just like you and the ninja world you want to protect, you can neither change the behavior of the Otsutsuki clan, nor can you change that you have fallen into their eyes. In the future, more Otsutsugi will surely die for various reasons The general trend that comes one after another. "

"No one wants to be an abandoned child abandoned by the tide of the times, because everyone knows that those who are abandoned outside the mainstream of the times will easily fall into the quagmire where it is difficult to survive. self-defeating."

"Fortunately, there are ghosts and monsters in the kingdom of ghosts that can be used as capital for them to fight hard and take advantage of the wind of change, and you also have something that other planets that have been harvested by Otsutsuki have never had——

The tailed beast separated from the ten tails and the unmanned outsider golem, the fairy art that can touch Otsuki with a mortal body, and the six bloodlines diverted from the Otsutsuki clan, these are the most precious things for you to fight against the Otsutsuki clan Capital. "

As the voice fell, Kaguya Rei's figure also disappeared into Uzumaki Naruto's eyes. The fighting instinct that had been silent for many years, but was reactivated in the battle with powerful enemies such as Tao Shi, Jin Shi and even Yi Shi Uzumaki Naruto was urged to turn around to fight back, but before Uzumaki Naruto's body moved, Kaguya Rei's fingers were already on the back of his neck, and the fingertips were gray.

"Resisting the aggression of the Otsutsuki clan is not a fight between children. Even if you lose, there is still room for reconciliation. If you lose to the Otsutsuki clan, everything you have will be swallowed up and turned into nothingness... in this In this kind of zero-sum game where the loser will definitely have nothing, we, as the weak side, are not qualified to twitch and not do our best."

Listening to Kaguya Rei's indifferent and irrefutable speech behind him, Naruto Uzumaki closed his eyes, and asked with some confusion and melancholy:

"But, aren't you afraid that one day you will degenerate into the pure-blooded Otsutsuki clan, cold and ruthless, who regard people whose life level is far lower than yours as livestock and worthless monsters?"

"It's a boring question. Even if one day I really become the successor of Otsuki who loses human feelings and regards himself as the supreme god, I will step by step to the apex of the chakra system and become the chakra who can overwhelm other Otsutsuki clans. Members and other creatures in the universe are all treated equally for sustainable depletion, monsters of monsters..."

"In a world where everyone is rewarded and everyone is cut off, naturally there is no difference between Datongmu and ordinary people."

Kaguya sneered, and gave an answer full of madness, and a rhetorical question full of jokes:

"It's better to say that in my opinion, you will resist the power of the ten tails because you are worried that you will become a cold and heartless monster, which is something that I can't understand...

Even in the endless discrimination, alienation and attacks on Renzhuli by the people around you, you still unswervingly grow into a warm savior hero, why this time, you don’t even have the confidence to overcome the darkness and desire in your heart again? there is none left? Has the long-term peace and family life made you lose your self-confidence and judgment as a hero, Naruto Uzumaki?"

This chapter was supposed to be written and posted last night, but the more I wrote it, the more I was unsatisfied. After I woke up from sleep, I finally managed to write a version that is still readable...

Normal update tonight, um
