Ever since Uchiha You relaxed and completely let go of the human kingdom, time seems to pass faster day by day, and year by year.

As a short-lived species, humans reproduced very quickly. In just over three hundred years, the Wind Kingdom, which had excellent natural conditions, was already filled with them.

Even in the barren lands farther away, a large number of humans appeared. With the support of the immortal people who had recovered, they established a new human country that did not belong to Kaguya.

Even in the desert of the Ninja Cat Clan, a small human country appeared.

Uchiha You no longer cares about this. The only people he cares about now are Otsutsuki Hagoromo who is gradually growing into a young man and Otsutsuki Kaguya who is becoming more and more nervous.

There is something wrong with both mother and son.

On an uninhabited island in the deep sea, Uchiha Yuu and Miwa Masayo were brewing tea under the pine tree he had planted himself, and they were treating the slugs that had just woken up from their slumber with snacks such as pine nuts, acorns, and clams.

Slugs originally loved chewing on large green trees, but after tasting these carefully selected extraordinary foods, they changed their preferences and became particularly fond of these small fruits.

In order to have the best taste, she even sent out a clone of the right size to unceremoniously stuff handfuls of food into her mouth, chewing with a crunching sound.

The slug enjoyed the meal and praised: "You are worthy of being called Master You. You have a really good eye. There are so many delicious foods in the world. Why didn't I discover them before?"

"Thousands of years! Do you know how I have lived these thousands of years?"

"Anyway, from now on, I don't want to live a life where I only eat one kind of tree!"

"Absolutely not!"

Uchiha You and Miwa Masayo were amused by the slug, and quickly took out the prepared seeds and gave them to the slug, telling her that these were delicious seeds and she could take them home and plant them.

Uchiha You was very confident in the seeds he had selected after hundreds of years of screening. The only problem was: "It takes a long time to bear fruit after planting. Slug, you have to be patient."

The slug's happy laughter suddenly disappeared, and she asked worriedly, "It will take a long time before we can eat it. How long? 100 years?"

Uchiha You was stunned by the question and quickly replied: "100 years is too exaggerated. These things are not peaches eaten by the Great Sage."

He raised two fingers: "After these seeds are planted, they need to grow for 20 years before they can bloom, which means you need to wait 20 years before you can eat the delicious fruits..."

The slug's laughter began again: "Haha, it only takes 20 years, that's great."

"When I return to the Wet Bone Forest, I will plant these seeds. I will be able to eat delicious food just by taking a nap. It will be so wonderful."

Uchiha You slapped his head. He still wasn't used to worrying about the time of immortality. He even forgot once again that the slug was an immortal species. A mere 20 years was just the time for her to take a nap.

He smiled and said, "The world may not be stable in the future. It would be a good idea for you to go to sleep when you return."

The slug asked curiously, "Can you tell me what will happen next?"

Miwa Masayo explained on behalf of the Taoist couple: "Otsutsuki Hagoromo has grown up and entered a rebellious phase. He is quarreling with Otsutsuki Kaguya, meow."

"Although the quarrel between mother and son is just Kaguya Otsutsuki's family affair, she and her son are too powerful, meow. Their family affair could develop into a terrible war at any time, so it's safer to hide away, meow."

"Slug Sage, you are the only friend Yu and I have made in 300 years. If I don't wash you, something bad will happen to you, meow."

The slug nodded and said, "I understand."

"Don't worry, Xiao Yashi. I won't go out when we return to the Wet Bone Forest."

In addition to several kinds of delicious fruits, even the boiled tea was unique and delicious. When the spring water boiled, the fragrance rose to the sky, and the three immortals were dazzled by the fragrance for a while.

Not only did Uchiha Yu and Miwa Masayo taste it carefully, even the slug who never drank water deliberately drank a large glass of it.

Uchiha You sighed: "I have deliberately controlled my sense of smell, but it's no use at all."

Miwa Masayo continued, "Hehe, I can't control my nose, meow. I feel that this tea is very fragrant but not pungent at all."

She added: "This is not normal, meow, my nose is much stronger than Yuu's, meow."

The slug was obviously more excited than Miwa Masayo. She shouted loudly: "Of course it's not normal. I don't have a nose, but I can actually smell the fragrance. This is too exaggerated!"

As the only great sage in the world today, Slug's personality seems very naive and he speaks very casually, which is completely different from his calm and mature performance when he later became Tsunade's contracted ninja beast.

She is already several thousand years old now, and will not change from a child to an adult in the next thousand years.

Uchiha You was very curious about this and specifically asked the slug about it in a hypothetical way.

The slug replied: "If I were to enter into a contract with a human, I would of course have to act prudent."

"Ordinary humans can't become great immortals like You, so they can't be my friends either. I must treat them according to the terms of the contract."

Miwa Masayo asked curiously, "Why can't you become friends with humans, meow?"

The slug was full of doubts, but she answered seriously: "The human lifespan is too short, not even 100 years."

"Normally, it would take me more than a hundred years to sleep. The contractor I met before going to bed would definitely be dead, and even his grandchildren would die of old age. How could we be true friends?"

"Although my clone will respond to the contract when I sleep, the clone's memories are just memories to me and cannot have any emotional impact at all."

The slug's answer shocked Uchiha Yu and Miwa Masaya. Only then did they understand the true feelings of the Immortals.

This pair of Taoist companions accompanied each other in their pursuit of immortality. The longest time they spent together was in unfamiliar surroundings. The people they came into contact with were either Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's family or immortals like their good friend Slug.

Among these creatures, only Hagoromo and Hamura's physical appearance changed, but it took them three hundred years to grow from boys to young men.

During this period, ordinary humans who had reproduced for 18 generations were ignored by Uchiha Yu and Miwa Masayo.

The special time reference system successfully confused Uchiha Yu's sense of time, creating the illusion that they were still "ordinary" people.

Thinking of the previous conversation, Uchiha You couldn't help but be in a trance again, and then he smiled again: "This proves that the fragrance of tea is not smelled by the nose, but directly penetrates into the body and affects the brain."

"This is the only way to explain why the three of us have completely different noses but have similar perceptions of the scent of tea."

His voice gradually became low, and he almost murmured, "I never noticed before that this tea has such benefits..."

Uchiha You thought of illusion. If he used the tea fragrance that went straight into the brain, could he develop a new illusion system?

Even if the illusion that starts with the scent is not very powerful, with the help of the irresistible scent of tea, this illusion can also be used as an illusion for kicking the door, opening a direct path to the opponent's brain for subsequent illusions.

Although Uchiha You's power is based on the Way of Heaven and the origin of Otsutsuki, and he has mastered the power of time, he still believes that ninjutsu and illusion are the best ways to fight.

Killing doesn't have to be that complicated, it just needs to be simple and effective.

It's just like Kaguya Otsutsuki, who used high-level skills like Ame-no-Minaka, Ash Bone Sharing, Rabbit Hair Needle, Eighty Gods Air Strike, and Inflated Truth-Seeking Ball to fight the Twins of Fate, but in the end, she couldn't defeat them even after doing everything she could.

Is it that her skills are not strong enough?

Of course not. Kaguya's techniques are too powerful. Not to mention the Six Paths-level Fate Twins who were created by someone, even if Uchiha Yuu was really hit, he would be either killed or seriously injured.

But because these techniques are so powerful, the difficulty of controlling them increases sharply, and the fighting style adopted by Kaguya Otsutsuki is also very special, it is purely a fire-and-forget approach.

The result was that she almost destroyed the ninja world, but she was not able to hit the two 16-year-old children head-on. Instead, she was overturned by the two children and was sealed a second time.

If you want to know how Uchiha You could have such an understanding, it is of course because he experienced it personally.

300 years is not a short time for immortals. Even if Uchiha Yuu spent 200 years traveling around the world, it was enough for Kaguya to become familiar with them to the point where they could learn from each other.

Kaguya Ōtsutsuki’s fighting skills…are pretty poor.

From this, Uchiha You even had an idea that maybe the reason why Kaguya and Hagoromo Hamura fought for several months was not because of Kaguya's excessive love for her son.

Maybe Kaguya is really bad at this?

Anyway, Uchiha You felt like a noob in the competition with her, and he was so noob that he couldn't even pick his feet!

The various terrifying techniques are truly terrifying, but Kaguya Otsutsuki's attacks are basically inaccurate, and there is no control after the techniques are released.

Her combat philosophy seems to be that she doesn't care about accuracy. As long as the power is strong enough, the killing range covers a large enough area, and the attack density is appropriate, she can win.

This seems to have a special term, called Van Fleet's tactics supported by Van Fleet's ammunition.

To sum it up: Explode! That’s it!

But this is a way for the strong to crush the weak, using cannons to kill mosquitoes and missiles to kill flies. The effect is really unreliable.

Such a defect is even more useless when facing strong people of the same level, such as Uchiha Yu.

Not to mention his hidden power of time, Uchiha Yu didn't even use his spatial ability. He just used simple ninjutsu and illusion techniques to completely avoid all of Kaguya's attacks.

Surprisingly, Kaguya has the most powerful Byakugan and the Nine-magatama Samsara Eye, but she is unable to see through illusions and is fooled by Uchiha Yuu without realizing it.

It was this battle that completely eliminated Uchiha You's fear of Kaguya, and he finally understood that the world is full of wonders.

There really are people like Kaguya Ōtsutsuki in the world, who are obviously extremely powerful, but are completely incompetent in actual combat.

On the other hand, since he was successfully ambushed by Kaguya Otsutsuki and became a wedge in her hands, that guy named Otsutsuki Isshiki is also a combat waste?

It's not impossible...

Think about those cool and arrogant alien Otsutsuki. They were obviously powerful aliens from other galaxies. At least they could be regarded as extraterrestrial demons. But they fell one by one at the hands of unreliable young people.

What is the difference between them and the aliens who came to Earth in a spaceship as big as the moon but were defeated by a virus running on the Win95 system.

It looks powerful, but it is actually weak as a dregs.

Uchiha You almost swelled up, and it took him a lot of effort to barely suppress his pounding heart.

[Don’t drift, absolutely don’t drift! ]

[My enemy is called Otsutsuki Hagoromo. Although he is also an Otsutsuki, he is an old silver coin who has practiced for thousands of years. He is completely different from the naive alien Otsutsuki. ]

[And even if the alien Ōtsutsuki are all naive, like the tailed beasts who have all the power but can't use it well, I must consider one thing: since the Six Paths Sage who created the tailed beasts is very powerful, then what kind of terrifying existence is the mastermind behind the creation of the alien Ōtsutsuki? ]

[Is it a higher-dimensional life form? Or a dimensional observer? Or is it the person in charge of the heavenly way? ]

[Pah! I must have overthought it, how could it be so powerful...]

[I must have thought too much...]

…

After bidding farewell to the slug, Uchiha Yuu and Miwa Masayo returned to the Kingdom of Wind leisurely.

Thanks to the deterrence of Kaguya Ōtsutsuki and the reinforcements of Uchiha Yuu and Miwa Masayo, the Kingdom of Wind achieved 300 years of peaceful development.

At this time, the human population has increased dozens of times, reaching millions.

Traces of human activities, such as residential buildings, farmlands, roads, and city walls, can be found in every corner of the Kingdom of Wind. Even in the mountains, there are small wooden cabins where hunters and woodcutters rest.

The core of the Kingdom of Wind is of course the four palaces, which have been paved with stone slabs by humans. The corridor outside the giant tree is full of "luxurious" buildings.

But Uchiha Yu discovered that the atmosphere in the four palaces was very depressing, because Otsutsuki Kaguya's tangible aura emanated from the palace where she lived like a dark cloud.

Creatures below the Six Paths level, facing this heavy aura, will feel terribly oppressed, as if they were walking through a narrow passage through the sky and being oppressed by the corridors that were clamped on both sides.

In the entire Kingdom of Wind, there are only four people who can ignore Kaguya's current momentum.

However, Otsutsuki Hagoromo is having a quarrel with her mother and has been traveling around the Kingdom of Wind, providing various kinds of help to humans, and refuses to return.

Uchiha Yuu and Miwa Masayo were running around the world, leaving only Otsutsuki Hamura to face his mother.

This child is rather shy and not very strong. Not only can he not persuade his mother, he also trembles under her pressure.

Seeing Uchiha Yu and Miwa Masayo returning, Otsutsuki Hamura jumped up and quickly took them to see their mother.

His movements were so fast that even Miwa Masayo felt a little dizzy, and he kept trying to stop him, "Hamura boy, slow down, slow down!"

Otsutsuki Hamura shouted anxiously, "We have to hurry up, Master Miwa Masayo, Mother has been in a bad mood for a long time!"

"My mother is like this and nobody can get close to her. My eldest brother refuses to come back, but I don't have the ability to convince her. She even refuses to tell me what happened. I'm so worried!"

When they arrived at the door of Kaguya's palace, Uchiha You suddenly reached out and pressed Otsutsuki Hamura's head, stopping his panicked pulling.

He smiled and said, "Hamura, take Masashi to your palace. I will go to see your mother alone."

Otsutsuki Hamura hesitated, not knowing whether he should obey: "But mother..."

Uchiha You laughed: "Okay, your mother refused to tell you the reason, it must be because you are too young, only over 300 years old, and can't listen to the conversation between adults."

"Don't worry, your mother is the most powerful being in the world. Are you still worried that I will bully her?"

He successfully persuaded Otsutsuki Hamura to leave with Miwa Masayo, and he turned around and entered Kaguya's palace.

The moment he entered the palace, the smile on Uchiha You's face completely disappeared. He walked into the palace step by step with great seriousness and came directly in front of Kaguya who was deep in the palace.

The light inside the palace is definitely not as good as outside, but Kaguya Otsutsuki's seat is carefully designed, with eight windows that provide light precisely according to the position of the sun.

But now Kaguya's mood was extremely bad. The aura she emitted distorted the light, making the sunlight lose its warm feeling. It shone on Kaguya's white hair and white clothes, reflecting a bluish-white light.

Coupled with Kaguya's ugly expression, the goddess sitting on the throne looked like a female ghost.

Seeing Uchiha Yuu walk in, Otsutsuki Kaguya seemed to relax a little, and the light shining on her actually became a little brighter and warmer.

Kaguya said, "Mr. You, you are finally back."

Uchiha You nodded, and then asked: "I felt your aura change in the southeastern sea area. I thought it was a minor problem at the time, but I didn't expect it to become more serious after two years. What happened?"

"Is there anything else in this world that can make you so upset?"

Kaguya Otsutsuki smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. Yu, you are right. There is nothing in this world that can make me so uncomfortable. The problem occurs outside this world."

Uchiha You was speechless for a moment, and after a long while he tried to ask, "The Otsutsuki clan from the universe... is coming?"

Kaguya Otsutsuki breathed a sigh of relief: "You really do know my origins."

"You guessed it right. I heard an order from the Otsutsuki clan. My killing of Otsutsuki Isshiki was discovered, and all the Otsutsuki were ordered to strangle me."

"They will be here soon, very soon..."

Uchiha You took a deep breath and asked, "Come if you want. We have enough strength to protect ourselves. We can't just wait to die if they come."

Although Kaguya Otsutsuki didn't believe Uchiha Yuu's bold words, her expression had eased greatly, and she even showed a real smile: "After Mr. Yuu and I sparred, it seems that you look down on the Otsutsuki clan."

Uchiha You responded: "This is not to look down on the Otsutsuki clan, but my attitude towards war: strategically we should despise the enemy, but tactically we should take the enemy seriously."

Kaguya was stunned and murmured, "What you said makes sense."

Uchiha You asked: "Kaguya, can you hear the order? Can you determine how long it will take for the enemies of the Otsutsuki clan to arrive?"

Kaguya replied, "It will come soon, no later than 1100 years!"

“Too fast!!”

Uchiha Itachi: "..."
