"To simultaneously acquire the genes of the Sage of Six Paths's descendant and the Sage of Six Paths's younger brother's descendant?" Kazuki nodded thoughtfully.
The difficulty of awakening the Tenseigan was immense. Even Hagoromo back then hadn't fully awakened it.
As for Toneri, he had already undergone atavism, obtained the extremely pure Byakugan from Hanabi, and with the help of the Giant Tenseigan, he naturally awakened the Tenseigan.
Orochimaru's idea was actually correct. When it came to bloodlines, as long as there were no conflicts, it was naturally better to have some atavism.
Hamura's bloodline was good, but if Rinka also had Hagoromo's bloodline, it would be beneficial for her. If she could become a miniature Kaguya, it would be the most suitable path for her.
"Oh, right, I heard that Kirigakure has the Kaguya clan, they are most likely also descendants of Hamura." Kazuki seemed to recall something and reminded the others.
"The Kaguya clan? During the Sengoku era, they were allies of the Hyuga clan, but because they provoked Madara, they were driven to the Land of Water." Tobirama's eyes lit up as he said thoughtfully.
"Later, although the Hyuga clan joined Konoha, the connection between the Hyuga clan and the Kaguya clan was not severed."
After speaking, Tobirama looked at Kazuki.
He knew that Kazuki had caused extensive damage in Kirigakure before, with over twenty thousand people dying at his hands in total.
It could be said that if Kirigakure didn't have its Tailed Beast and strong support from the Land of Water, it would probably have fallen out of the ranks of the Five Great Ninja Villages.
However, everyone believed that given Kirigakure's situation, it would take the efforts of three or four generations to recover.
"I wonder if you exterminated the Kaguya clan back then." Tobirama said with a faint tone.
"I don't know about that, we can consider looking for them. If we find someone who has awakened Shikotsumyaku, we can capture them." Kazuki spread his hands.
"I don't care about these things. However, the Anbu can investigate, as this is our main priority. If the Kaguya clan is truly extinct, then we will have no chance to complete the Kaguya clan's gene later."
Tobirama nodded slightly. This was indeed a problem that needed to be taken seriously.
The Kaguya clan was even crazier than the Uchiha clan. It wasn't impossible for them to exterminate themselves someday.
"Let Minato and the others go on a trip later." Orochimaru said with strong approval.
Regarding knowledge of the Land of Water, Minato was definitely among the top in Konoha. Minato, who had the Flying Thunder God Technique, was definitely the best candidate for these tasks.
Even Tobirama had no objections to this. "Alright, if he brings a Kaguya clansman back, then we'll use nutrient fluid as compensation."
Some matters still needed a legitimate reason.
Minato didn't have the privileged family background as a backing like Mikoto, Rinka, and Nawaki, nor was he Kushina, who had a high subsidy as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. To use the expensive nutrient fluid, Minato would have to undertake missions and earn money.
Of course, Orochimaru would give Minato some discounts. Ordinary people couldn't even buy it at a high price, which was already a huge backdoor.
In fact, Kushina owned a street, and it was Konoha's most central commercial street. This was not given by the Uzumaki clan.
The Uzumaki clan had already been annihilated, so where would they get the resources to give to Kushina?
Rather, after Kushina became a Jinchuriki, this street was given to her as compensation, and after Kurama transfers in the future, this street will belong to the next Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. This was a good idea.
The commercial street could not be passed down to descendants, but the rent collected during this period would be enough for descendants to live in luxury.
Kazuki felt it was pretty good. In the original story, Kushina seemed to have had a similar arrangement. However, Naruto did not receive such treatment.
This might be related to the Nine-Tails Incident, where Kurama destroyed the village, or perhaps because Naruto was too young, and Hiruzen worried that he couldn't handle it.
More likely, it was taken by Hiruzen under the guise of rebuilding Konoha, and then naturally ended up in the pockets of the higher-ups.
After all, if you don't take it, and I don't take it, how will everyone make money?!
Ultimately, no one was willing to be Naruto's backing.
Jiraiya was unreliable, and Tsunade had also left Konoha.
Kushina's treatment was negotiated by Mito, and Tsunade and the others were still there. Hiruzen would not be petty about these matters, and besides, Kushina was not easy to fool.
"That's natural, I also think highly of Minato-kun." Orochimaru said with a smile.
Minato was, after all, Jiraiya's disciple, Kazuki's junior, and a civilian genius.
At this stage, Orochimaru still thought highly of such geniuses who grew through their own talent rather than bloodline.
Minato was such a genius, but unfortunately, he ended up benefiting that idiot Jiraiya. He didn't mind helping Minato more and providing more assistance during his growth process.
...
Days passed, and everyone got stronger, even Kazuki's strength was slowly increasing.
This day, the combat arena refreshed as scheduled, and the refreshed list made Kazuki unusually excited.
Seven-Tails Jinchuriki — Fū
The Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, who called himself the second Sage of Six Paths — Uchiha Obito
Valley of the End battle — Senju Hashirama
Team 7's sensei — Hatake Kakashi
Tenseigan — Otsutsuki Hamura
Seeing these five choices, even Kazuki's heart couldn't remain calm.
Normally, just Seven Tails's Chakra wouldn't be very important as Kazuki already had a lot of Chakra, but now he only lacked Seven-Tails's Chakra, making it noteworthy.
Once he integrated Seven-Tails's Chakra, Kazuki could call himself the second Sage of Six Paths. Of course, he could also be the second Kaguya, and he would be much stronger then.
Obito in his Ten-Tails Jinchuriki state called himself the second Sage of Six Paths, and his strength seemed good. But he was ultimately defeated by Sasuke and Naruto. He was the weakest Six Paths level being.
