Chapter 120 I Come From the Future
Chapter 120 I Come From the Future
Kaguya aimed her shared-killing ashes at Ningxia, her expression suggesting she was about to attack, but inwardly she regretted it, thinking, "Damn it... Ningxia predicted it."
But she didn't want to admit it, so she wanted to force Ningxia to beg for mercy. If Ningxia begged for mercy, she would reluctantly let her go.
"Do you have anything to say?"
"No further words, please act quickly."
Ningxia's main strategy was to stand firm to the end. He knew Kaguya's personality very well. If he really showed weakness, he would be completely controlled.
Therefore, he had to act nonchalant to get Kaguya to compromise.
"Yes! Kill him! Mom killed him! I want to see his ashes flying everywhere!"
When Black Zetsu returned and saw that Kaguya was going to use the All-Killing Ashes, she immediately became excited and fanned the flames. She wanted to see this! She wanted to see this mouth!
"..."
Kaguya didn't want to fight at all. She... she just wanted Ningxia to lower her stance a little. She just wanted to destroy the ninja world. Was she that bad?
Black Zetsu's instigation was incredibly irritating, so Kaguya turned around and sternly told him to shut up, then casually said that this time it would be fine.
"what?"
Black Zetsu was completely bewildered after being scolded for no reason. What had she done wrong? Why was her mother angry? Was it because she was too noisy?
Black Zetsu has not doubted Kaguya's problem so far, only feeling that he might have been too noisy just now, which made his mother angry.
"I'm tired, Ningxia, cook me two dishes."
Kaguya originally didn't need to eat, but as the goddess of the rabbit, she was often offered various foods by humans, so she started to eat some.
"Lord Kaguya, what would you like to eat?"
"Um……"
Kaguya pondered for a moment and said that she would just need something she hadn't tried before.
"Yes, Kaguya-sama."
"Fine, I still prefer your rebellious side. Try to get back to normal."
"Yes, Lady Kaguya."
"..."
To make it easier to find ingredients, Ningxia took Kaguya to the nearest town. By this time, the Divine Tree had spread throughout the ninja world and captured everyone.
However, Kaguya never extracted any chakra, which meant that for them, it was like having a dream in a cultivation chamber.
"The changes are huge..."
Kaguya sighed softly, recalling that when she descended into this world, civilization was not yet what it is today; it already had the beginnings of the steam age.
It's only because this world has ninjutsu and chakra that technology doesn't dominate.
In the deserted town, Kaguya looked around at all sorts of new things with curiosity. For her, who had just been released from prison, everything was new and exciting.
"What is this in Ningxia?"
"This is a pendant."
"Ningxia, what kind of clothes are these?"
"bathrobe."
"Ningxia, what's this for?"
"This is underwear."
"well?"
Kaguya stared at the three dots in front of her. This thing… can it really be called underwear? What kind of behavior is this?!
Imagine yourself wearing it...
Kaguya's pale face immediately turned bright red; there was absolutely no way she would wear that!
Because it was in a town, ingredients were not scarce, so Ningxia could improvise and prepared a five-dish meal with soup for Kaguya.
"It's...not bad!"
Looking at the table full of delicious-looking dishes in front of her, Kaguya had never seen such a grand display before.
She was once an ascetic, destined to be sacrificed to the sacred tree. Even after defeating Ikki and becoming the Goddess of the Rabbit, the era she belonged to could not afford to let her enjoy delicious food.
Curious, Kaguya put a piece of stir-fried pork with chili peppers into her mouth. The spicy taste immediately made her face turn red, and she complained that Ningxia must be playing a trick on her.
"At first, it might take some getting used to, but the more you eat chili, the more delicious it becomes."
"real?"
Kaguya looked suspicious, but she still ate as Ningxia suggested, taking a bite of stir-fried pork with chili and a bite of rice, and found it surprisingly good.
Looking at Kaguya, who was so easily satisfied, Ningxia couldn't help but sigh. If this guy hadn't wanted to destroy the ninja world, he wouldn't have been so wicked.
"Mom...shouldn't we be gathering chakra now?"
Black Zetsu weakly reminded her, but Kaguya interrupted her, saying that she was eating!
"..."
Black Zetsu was speechless for a moment, but dared not disobey Kaguya, so he could only watch from the side.
After eating and drinking her fill, Kaguya wanted Ningxia to take her out for a walk so she could see what had happened in the world since she had been sealed away for so long.
"it is good."
As long as Kaguya doesn't extract chakra and her demands aren't too harsh, Ningxia won't refuse, and the two gradually grow closer without realizing it.
After being rebuffed several times, Black Zetsu realized that Kaguya had her own plans and dared not say anything more, only silently watching Kaguya and Ningxia get closer and closer.
"Ningxia, do you know? This is the first time I've ever looked at flowers like this with someone of the opposite sex."
Kaguya gently pinched a flower, a unique species in the ninja world, which had never been seen in the Otsutsuki clan or on other planets.
If she chooses to extract chakra from the ninja world, this flower, and everyone else, will become White Zetsu. Except for her, Ningxia, and Black Zetsu, everyone else will cease to exist.
But if she does that, Ningxia will hate her to death.
"Really? You're already a mother of two."
Ningxia still didn't forget to tease Kaguya at this point, but her tone was much gentler than before.
"Hmph! Everyone says that if it's not a ten-month pregnancy, it doesn't count."
Kaguya knew Ningxia meant no harm, so she didn't take his words to heart and instead angrily corrected him.
Although Hagoromo and Hamura were indeed raised by her, they are no longer her beloved sons.
What son would seal his mother away for thousands of years?
"Well... I don't think you'll ever like children in your life."
Ningxia smiled, but Kaguya denied it in a barely audible voice, saying that there were exceptions to such things, such as pregnancy, which was a different story.
Kaguya moved closer again, and the two were now very close. Black Zetsu could only watch helplessly as his mother's hand reached for Ningxia.
How could this have happened... Could it be that Mom... has fallen for someone?
No way!
Black Zetsu didn't have a father to begin with, so he didn't want to have a father for no reason, especially since this father almost killed him.
She opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say, after all... her mother's will was supreme.
"I'm so happy today!"
Kaguya smiled from the bottom of her heart; she was genuinely happy and even forgot her original goal.
"Kaguya, if you can keep this up, maybe we can become friends."
Ningxia was stunned for a few seconds by Kaguya's sincere smile. Generally speaking, apart from Kaguya's desire to destroy the ninja world, he didn't dislike this silly woman.
"But if I do that, I will die."
Kaguya's expression gradually turned serious. She needed power to protect herself; if she didn't have power when the Otsutsuki descended, she would die.
Ningxia was silent for a moment, then said softly, "I come from the future, and I have seen other Otsutsuki."
