Zhang Yan looked at Kaguya Otsutsuki and said seriously, "According to the information I have received, your Otsutsuki clan is born with great power, does not need to cultivate like ordinary people, and has a lifespan of at least a thousand years!"
"But no one, or rather life, learns to be content!"
"In order to obtain eternal life and great power, the Otsutsuki main family sent people like you, who are not from the main family, to different planets to plant the Chakra God Tree and guard the divine tree that only bears fruit once every thousand years!"
"Not only that, you laborers must also continuously offer chakra to the Otsutsuki family until the chakra fruit matures and you hand it over."
"To put it bluntly, the difference between you people and ordinary people is that you are born with great power and a longer lifespan."
"But in the eyes of the Otsutsuki main family, you are still just miserable wage earners!"
"As for you, Kaguya Otsutsuki severed ties with the Otsutsuki clan after arriving on Earth because you were more inclined towards the people of Earth. This can be seen from the fact that you were blessed by your people to create the twins, which shows that you did so sincerely!"
"Hoo~~" Kaguya Otsutsuki closed her eyes, and judging from her expression, she seemed to have acquiesced.
But her expression greatly agitated Hagoromo Otsutsuki.
If what Zhang Yan said is true.
So what about what he and Hamura did?
Wouldn't that be letting everyone down?
Zhang Yan glanced at Hagoromo Otsutsuki, offered no explanation, and instead asked Kaguya Otsutsuki, "Should you speak, or should I?"
“I told you!” Kaguya Otsutsuki narrowed her eyes.
She didn't say anything back then because of her personality, and also because of the sadness of not being understood.
But now that she has someone like Zhang Yan who understands her, she is willing to tell the truth.
"Everything is for the sake of self-preservation!"
Kaguya Otsutsuki looked at Hamura Otsutsuki and said, "After arriving on this planet, I planted a seed and began absorbing chakra!"
"While waiting, I traveled the world and found that the people on this planet are actually very similar to me. We are all unable to control our own destiny, and we can't even fight against it."
"But I'm different; at least I can put up a fight!"
"I decided to fight back. I stopped the chakra that was supposed to be handed over to the Otsutsuki main family, and instead spread it among humans, so that they could have the power to become stronger!"
"I swallowed the fruit of the divine tree, gained power, quelled the world's conflicts, and established a unified kingdom!"
"But I know, I know, that's not enough!"
"Because that race contains countless powerful individuals who have consumed the fruit!"
"Even those monsters from our own clan have consumed countless fruits over the years. The strongest among them can destroy a planet with a wave of their hand!"
"And I know that such enemies will definitely return one day, so I must become stronger!"
"And the way for my clan to become stronger is by constantly consuming the fruits of the divine tree!"
"Then, I thought of a way to speed up the appearance of the fruit!"

"How to speed up the appearance of the fruit?"
The Sage of Six Paths was taken aback, then asked, "Does it mean devouring humans?"
He couldn't understand it at all.
If that's the case, wouldn't that still be putting the cart before the horse?
They keep saying they want to protect the world, but they also want to devour the people in it. This is a complete contradiction.
"Hagoromo, that's because you don't know the whole story." Perhaps because Zhang Yan already knew everything, Kaguya didn't arrogantly remain silent this time, but instead explained, "You're right, my method is to devour humans, which can accelerate the absorption of chakra!"
This is actually easy to understand; it's like the big fish eating the small fish, and humans are like the accelerators that the fruits of the Divine Tree are growing outside.
"But I don't devour just any human!"
"If humanity goes extinct, then I can only wait a thousand years until the fruit ripens. As long as I hand it over, I will still be in no danger, and I might even receive a reward!"
"But the moment the fruit ripens, the Infinite Tsukuyomi will activate, and humanity will be wiped out!"
"The devastation is under my control. It only requires devouring a small number of humans. By repeating this process, the fruit can ripen ahead of time, and humanity will not become extinct!"
"And I can gain the power to protect this world, instead of letting the Otsutsuki clan destroy it later!"
Kaguya finally revealed part of the truth she had hidden back then.
Indeed, Kaguya was afraid of the existence of the Otsutsuki clan. She created the living weapon White Zetsu by activating the Infinite Tsukuyomi, which was also an attempt to deal with the Otsutsuki trio that would come later.
But if that were all, she could have simply swallowed the fruit and run away, regardless of the lives or deaths of the people in this world.
Life forms in this universe are not limited to Earth.
She doesn't even need to care about the future of humanity. As long as she leaves, humanity will still be wiped out when the Otsutsuki trio arrives a thousand years later.
This shows that Kaguya Otsutsuki stayed behind to protect humanity.
As for her occasionally devouring humans, that's just how it is.
This is one of the multiple-choice questions.
Alternatively, let the fruit of the Divine Tree completely wipe out humanity.
Either Kaguya Otsutsuki isn't strong enough, and once the Otsutsuki trio arrives, she gets captured, and humanity will still be wiped out!
Regardless of which side Kaguya stands on, humanity's future is already in her own hands.
She needs power to change things.
As for how she can gain strength, it's naturally by consuming more fruits from the divine tree to become stronger.
Therefore, her occasional absorption of humans is a helpless measure, in order to preserve more humans.
Otherwise, if it were just betrayal, she could have moved to another place and started over long ago. She might have even become stronger by hiding!
"I see, I see..."
The Six Paths Immortal's expression changed, and he began muttering to himself in a daze.
Did Kaguya make the wrong choice?
Now it seems absolutely right.
The Sage of Six Paths knew exactly how strong he had ever been, but even then, he and his brother were the only ones who could seal Kaguya Otsutsuki in front of him.
However, Kaguya Otsutsuki was terrified of the Big Three and even the more powerful Otsutsuki clan behind them.
It is clear that he is powerless to resist this crisis that will surely bring rewards in the future.
Kaguya's actions were her only chance of survival.
But he destroyed this only chance of survival.
Think about how many people have died in the wars that have broken out over the years, and how many have been driven to extinction. From the Warring States period to the three Shinobi World Wars, how many people died?
If these people were devoured by the divine tree, would they all be treated differently?
At that moment, the Sage of Six Paths understood completely!
"It seems you understand now!"
Kaguya saw the Sage of Six Paths' guilty expression but felt no emotion whatsoever.
To put it simply, Hagoromo and Hamura are products of mutual trust between her and Earth's humans, possessing some of her and human characteristics.
At first, she did indeed raise her as a child.
But when Hagoromo and Hamura retrieved her from their seal, the bond between her and humanity on Earth was broken.
She no longer intends to do anything for humanity.
Anyway, now that the fruits of the Divine Tree can be produced, she won't have any problem completing her task.
Let the humans on Earth fend for themselves.
Because they have no desires or wants, their hearts are completely undisturbed.
Now, her only curiosity is about Zhang Yan; she sees something completely different in this human compared to the humans on this planet.
"Why are you inquiring about the Otsutsuki clan?" Kaguya asked with a hint of curiosity.
Now, she only has eyes for Zhang Yan.
No one else catches her eye!
This is the arrogance that comes with being born as an Otsutsuki.
Of course, this arrogance was directed at Zhang Yan.
Because Zhang Yan was clearly different from ordinary people.
“Nothing much to say!” Zhang Yan shook his head and said in a calm tone, “I just know that the Otsutsuki clan has ambitions to dominate the universe, and any outsiders will inevitably clash with me, so I’m just curious!”
"Prepare early so you won't be caught off guard if things happen in the future!"
"If they're definitely no match for me, I'll immediately lead my men to attack!"
"The Otsutsuki, who regard all life forms in the universe as nourishment, have no need to live on!"
