'Hm?'
Kitagawa Gen, who was hurrying on the road, suddenly sensed something, and his gaze changed slightly in an instant.
'That guy moved too?'
At this moment, they had already arrived in the Land of Waves through Flying Thunder God, and as long as they crossed the strait, they could enter the Land of Water.
Only the distance was truly not short, but that chakra belonging to "Ōtsutsuki Isshiki" was still sensed by him instantly.
This made him very curious about what exactly had happened inside the Land of Water, especially—
'Terumi Mei also seems to have used the kunai I gave her. It seems the situation is not very good.'
Right now in the Land of Water, it was truly a "gathering of all the capable." Uchiha Obito had gone in that direction, and the "White Kāma" of Ōtsutsuki Isshiki had also appeared.
In addition to that, the Akatsuki Organization was most likely indeed doing something over there, and adding one more Ōtsutsuki Urashiki—
'Three Ōtsutsuki plus one 'White Kāma', is it complete?'
Even if one was half-dead and one was most likely mentally unstable and a half-finished product.
But that Urashiki was truly a legitimate Ōtsutsuki!
Kitagawa Gen was not afraid of Ōtsutsuki Urashiki and even knew his details.
But if they truly fought, it was really hard to say what kind of destruction would be caused.
Moreover, he was worried about being "robbed of the fruit"; he was extremely interested in that "White Kāma"!
"What are you thinking about, Gen?"
Senju Tobirama noticed that Kitagawa Gen was somewhat absent-minded, and he asked curiously.
"Still thinking about what I said earlier? Actually, I don't know either. I only feel that it is most likely that way, and I—"
"You can explain this to the Sage of Six Paths later."
Kitagawa Gen tilted his head and glanced at the Second Hokage, and afterward he spoke.
"The situation in the Land of Water might be somewhat wrong, and Terumi Mei has used Flying Thunder God to summon me. I think I need to speed up."
"That Fifth Mizukage?"
Senju Hashirama raised his eyebrows, and his expression also became somewhat serious.
"Gen, can you teleport there directly?"
"Yes, she has a coordinate now for summoning."
Kitagawa Gen did not waste words and spoke directly.
"But I plan to go there first and take a look. You two go a little later."
"You are worried…"
Hearing Kitagawa Gen's words, Senju Hashirama seemed to have realized something, while Senju Tobirama had no hesitation.
"Ōtsutsuki Genshiki, you are worried about that guy?"
"...That's right."
Kitagawa Gen paused for a moment before speaking.
"The Akatsuki Organization will most likely encounter him during their operation. If I go now, if a real fight breaks out, it might have unexpected effects. Besides—"
"Impure World Reincarnation, right? We understand."
Senju Hashirama and Senju Tobirama both understood what Kitagawa Gen meant, and this made them sigh.
Although they did not fear death, they had no way to resist Yin–Yang Release.
If Kitagawa Gen went first, he could scout the situation and even draw the enemy's attention, while they could attempt an ambush.
"Then you must be careful."
Senju Tobirama handed the Flying Thunder God kunai to Kitagawa Gen, though his expression did not look very good.
"And also, if there is real trouble, I suggest you leave first, even if Kirigakure is an ally."
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
Kitagawa Gen stored the kunai and then smiled.
"And you two also need to be careful. After all, material like this is not easy to find."
As soon as his voice fell, the chakra on Kitagawa Gen's body shook violently, and in an instant, he disappeared from the spot.
"Yin–Yang Release, truly a troublesome thing."
Looking at the spot where Kitagawa Gen vanished, Senju Tobirama felt somewhat irritated. He turned his head and looked seriously at his older brother.
"Your body possessed both of these powers, right? Can you produce it?"
"In a death state, it is probably very difficult."
Senju Hashirama let out a helpless sigh and then showed a bitter smile.
"I really did not expect that becoming a burden would feel like this. We actually need a child to help us draw the enemy's fire."
"Sigh."
This matter made even Senju Tobirama feel somewhat dispirited, but Senju Hashirama continued speaking.
"Perhaps what you said was right…"
"Only through the harsh tempering of the Sage of Six Paths could we have the Gen who can now face the Ōtsutsuki."
...
"How interesting."
Above the small town in the Land of Water, Ōtsutsuki Urashiki looked down with a face full of interest.
So many strange and abstract lifeforms, and they were using their power—such a thing truly could not be seen on other planets!
"It seems the thing that attracted me here is that blank 'Kāma.'"
Ōtsutsuki Urashiki rested the fishing rod on his shoulder, and a malicious smile appeared on his face.
"Could it be that Isshiki's reincarnation failed?"
That white "Kāma" did not have Isshiki's soul, only Isshiki's power.
And that guy's soul was muddled and unclear, which made it hard for him not to think in this direction.
"But it doesn't matter. There are quite a few good things here."
Ōtsutsuki Urashiki stretched lazily and moved his bones slightly. Everything below was indeed interesting, but to him—
"It is nothing more than a group of ants holding power that belongs to us, tearing each other apart."
Ants fighting was amusing, and the combat techniques those people used made Urashiki somewhat interested.
But the difference in essence was too large. If he watched for too long, he would lose interest. Collecting that power as soon as possible was far more important!
"Besides, this world still has quite a lot of scattered Ten Tails chakra, and there are many things worth investigating. Tsk, tsk, maybe I can even obtain a fruit."
Ōtsutsuki Urashiki's gaze tightened, and his chakra began to tremble slightly. However, just as he was about to make a move—
He suddenly sensed something, and he immediately turned his head.
Only to see that in the space behind him, a strange fold appeared, and afterward a space door suddenly emerged.
"Yomotsu Hirasaka?"
Ōtsutsuki Urashiki immediately recognized what this was, since he himself was very skilled with this power.
In the next moment, a figure wearing a white robe as well walked out from the space door.
With the appearance of this figure, the mist covering the Land of Water seemed to scatter, and the silver moonlight fell upon him, making it impossible for anyone to see his face clearly.
Only those eyes, like stars, shining with deep blue flowing light, were staring directly at Ōtsutsuki Urashiki.
Seeing this person, even Ōtsutsuki Urashiki felt somewhat pressured.
After a good while, he finally revealed a smile.
"Oh? I didn't expect to meet a clansman on this planet."
"My name is Ōtsutsuki Urashiki. And who might you be…?"
Ōtsutsuki Urashiki was now extremely puzzled. He seemed to truly have never seen this fellow before.
However, he did not pay much attention to it. After all, he had already been out searching for Isshiki for nearly a thousand years.
In all that time, it was not impossible for the clan to have nurtured a new member.
Moreover, having a clansman around made things much more convenient for him. After searching for Isshiki for so long, even he himself was annoyed!
The actual relationships between members of the Ōtsutsuki Clan were not as good as imagined.
Because they were born noble, time would not leave too many marks on them.
The only ones who could get along with them were clansmen who could keep up with their pace. As for other lifeforms, all of them were nothing more than ants.
And in their long lives, what they sought was nothing but powerful strength.
Only powerful strength could allow them, with lifespans that were long or nearly infinite, to find meaning.
Thus they regarded all life-bearing planets in the entire universe as pastures, and even if destroying an entire planet to obtain a fruit, they would not hesitate.
Searching for Ōtsutsuki Isshiki and Ōtsutsuki Kaguya had already wasted far too much of Urashiki's time, and there was no way he could feel comfortable about it.
"Just call me Genshiki."
Kitagawa Gen spoke casually. He discovered that this fellow, just like Isshiki back then, simply had no defenses against him at all!
"Genshiki?"
Ōtsutsuki Urashiki nodded, then quickly asked: "How long have you been on this planet? Do you have any news of Isshiki-senpai? Why is his Kāma here again? Could it be that he failed his reincarnation?"
"No need to rush. I can answer these questions one by one."
Kitagawa Gen laughed. Having someone let down their guard was a good thing.
"I have only been here for less than twenty years, but I have indeed discovered quite a few things, especially regarding Isshiki-senpai."
"Less than twenty years? Then you really have investigated quite a lot."
Urashiki clicked his tongue. His interest was instantly piqued. Staying on a planet for twenty years meant that there were many interesting things here.
"Tell me. Especially about Isshiki-senpai—what happened to him?"
"Isshiki-senpai is truly a pioneer!"
Kitagawa Gen's tone was filled with "reverence," and within that "reverence" there was endless "emotion."
