Naruto: The Template System - Chapter 160 Resolve
Chapter 160 Resolve
The sky was dark, and the red moon was the sign of a disaster that fell on the world beneath it.
Thud.
Kozuki, who finally was able to take control of his body back, fell from the air and passed out the next moment.
“He turned out to be a human”
Both Hagoromo and Hamura were surprised by the transformation of the monster.
“Elder Brother, what should we do with him?”
Hamura asked while looking at Hagoromo as he could see that person had passed out, and they could deal with him quickly right now.
“He has a kind heart; at that moment, he stopped his inner monster from attacking me, and I could sense he was in deep pain, like losing something precious, maybe that turned him into a beast before”
“Let’s seal mother we won’t get such a good opportunity again”
Hagoromo looked towards Kaguya, who lay in a pit and was trying to recover, but the healing was too slow, and she still couldn’t move in an inch.
Whoosh…
They both disappeared from their place and appeared beside the weak Kaguya who lay in the pit.
“Hagoromo… Hamura…”
Noticing her sons, Kaguya said weakly as tears were in her eyes as she knew she was about to be sealed.
That monster has incapacitated her in a single move, and now she could only watch her sons as they seal her.
“Forgive us, Mother”
Both Hamura and Hagoromo clapped hands in front in respect for mother, and next moments, both of their palms were pressed on Kaguya.
“Chibaku Tensei!!!”
Both Hagoromo and Hamura shouted, and the whole earth started to tremble, and with Kaguya as a center, rocks began to float in the air.
Soon a vast sphere whose length and radius was off the charts appeared suspended above the sky; it almost looked like another planet.
But both Hagoromo and Hamura failed to notice as just when Kaguya was sealed, a black mass suddenly separated and fell on the ground.
The newly born Black Zetsu looked at his mother sealed in the sky, then at Hagoromo and Hamura, and finally at the figure with red hair lying on the ground passed out.
Black Zetsu could not see the figure clearly and left immediately as he didn’t want to be spotted by his brothers.
After sealing Kaguya, both the brothers immediately undid the Infinite Tsukuyomi placed on the world.
“It’s finally done”
Both Hagoromo and Hamura sighed in relief and sat down, tired of the early battle.
“What about him?”
After resting for both of them stood up, Hamura asked about Kozuki, who was still unconscious.
“Let’s take him back”
Hagoromo decided to take Kozuki back with him, and Hamura didn’t argue anymore.
Soon the two of them returned to their village, which was destroyed, and using their powers, they immediately started to rebuild.
Just with a single wood-style Jutsu from Hagoromo, a new village was rebuilt, and both of them and the fainted Kozuki arrived at their new home.
______________
“I… was finally… able to help you…”
With tears in her eyes, Kurenai looked at Kozuki and put her trembling hands on his cheeks, caressing them gently.
Thud…
The next moment she fell down and her blood dying the ground red.
________________
“Hu… Hu…”
Kozuki suddenly sat up and breathed heavily like he had seen a nightmare.
Kozuki took some deep breaths calming himself as the memory before finally began to clear up.
Unlike Ichigo, he could clearly see what was happening outside when he turned into a Vasto Lord.
In a rage, he couldn’t control his body and turned into a mindless monster.
“Is this how you felt all these years? Perhaps this is Karma”
Feeling the constant pain in his heart rising every minute, Kozuki looking at the wooden ceiling said a bit absent-mindedly.
He saw Kurenai being impaled with the black rod with his own eyes, and she was already weak before due to childbirth.
“Is she dead or perhaps still alive?”
Kozuki was lost in his thoughts, but suddenly the room door was pushed open, and two figures strode in.
“Oh, you are awake”
Seeing Kozuki looking blankly at the ceiling, Hagoromo said.
Hearing their voice, Kozuki looked over, and even after seeing the young sage of six paths, his eyes didn’t have any interest in them.
“This was yours, here”
“Thank… You”
Hamura brought the turtle time device in front of Kozuki, who looking at it for a while, took it and thanked him, his voice full of sorrow.
“I know this is late, but can you tell us who are you and where are you from?”
Hagoromo took the initiative to start a serious conversation as he wanted his questions answered.
“I’m from a place far, far away”
Hearing their words, Kozuki answered their question and didn’t tell them the truth.
“You mean you are also from where my mother came from”
Hagoromo asked back quickly as he hoped this guy would know something about his mother’s origin.
“No…”
Kozuki shook his head as he really didn’t know where Kaguya or the members of the Otsutsuki Clan came from.
Hagoromo was a bit disappointed but didn’t ask anymore.
After advising Kozuki to rest well, they left to treat the wounded since their fight with Kaguya had injured many people unknowingly.
Kozuki was once again left in the room, lost in his thoughts.
“I need to go back…”
As Kozuki was lost in thoughts, the image of newborn Renji appeared in his mind, and determination was again in his eyes.
His friends, his son, and probably the still alive Kurenai are waiting for him; he can’t waste time here mourning.
Kozuki looked at the turtle in his hands as this thing could help him.
