Konoha: I, Uchiha, am brimming with positive energy

Chapter 319 Let's Get Married

"I'm checking!"

Uchiha Yang said with a very serious expression that he had almost figured out Kaguya after a thousand years. Although this woman was very powerful, she had very little experience and was very easy to deceive.

The purpose of separating the chakra into two parts was clearly to reclaim it later, but after Hagoromo and Hamura grew up, it seemed as if they had forgotten about this and placed their hopes for fighting the Otsutsuki on White Zetsu.

To put it bluntly, they lack experience and seem somewhat naive. Despite their near-invincible strength in the ninja world, the two children were easily swayed by a toad.

"The chakra in these two children is a bit off; it's slightly different from yours. It seems like they're resisting your chakra, as if they're being controlled by someone else's will."

"The will of others?"

"That's right, I can't explain it in detail, it's like this."

Uchiha Yoichi demonstrated to Kaguya Otsutsuki, transferring his chakra into her body before severing the connection.

"How come you have chakra too?"

Kaguya Otsutsuki looked surprised. Chakra should be an energy unique to the Otsutsuki clan. Moreover, she and Isshiki Otsutsuki had already investigated this planet. Although some of the natives were quite strong, they were weak and could only use energy in other ways.

However, Kaguya soon learned what Uchiha Yang had said. After his chakra entered her body, it was not only so unfamiliar that it was almost impossible to use, but it also resisted her very much.

With a wave of her hand, Kaguya expelled Uchiha Yoichi's chakra from her body.

Although she desperately wanted more chakra, this chakra would not only be of no benefit to her, but would also cause her considerable harm.

"Are you saying that the chakra within Hagoromo and Hamura isn't mine? But I clearly separated it from them."

"Where does your chakra come from?"

"Yes"

Kaguya Otsutsuki originally wanted to say it was the fruit of the Divine Tree, but she didn't fully believe Yoichi Uchiha yet, so she stopped talking at this point.

Uchiha Yoichi continued, "Don't underestimate my intelligence network. You must have eaten that fruit to have such powerful chakra. But before that fruit ripened, you must have done something to make this part of the chakra resist you."

"Did I do something?"

Kaguya Otsutsuki said somewhat uncertainly, then slowly recalled something and suddenly remembered something.

When Isshiki was being swallowed halfway through his body, he was bound by her and shouted at her that he would not succeed and could not possibly steal the Chakra Fruit. Could it be Isshiki?

"It seems you've remembered. It must be that incident that made this part of your chakra so resistant to you."

Uchiha Yoichi didn't know what Kaguya was thinking, but whatever he said would only deepen her suspicions.

"It really is the same move!"

Upon hearing Uchiha Yoichi's words, Kaguya Otsutsuki felt a surge of anger, followed by a sense of lingering fear.

She has already fed Otsutsuki Isshiki to the Divine Tree, so how could he possibly attack her?

Uchiha Yoichi suddenly said, "That's right, you guessed correctly!"

Kaguya Otsutsuki was taken aback upon hearing this, and looked at Yoichi Uchiha with a somewhat confused expression. Was she right? What did she guess?

"This situation should have been caused by your enemy, but you feel that you killed him. However, did you really kill him?"

Uchiha Yoichi spoke with a seductive tone, but he wasn't seducing anyone; he was simply stating the facts. It was precisely because they were the truth that they were so persuasive.

"Think about your enemy's abilities, and what he might do before he dies. If he were truly dead, there would be no need for him to harm you in this way. Therefore, he is very likely not dead!"

Upon hearing Uchiha Yoichi's words, Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's eyes narrowed, and an indelible fear arose in her heart.

Isshiki Otsutsuki has two abilities, Sukunahime and Daikokuten. If he used Sukunahime to shrink his body and then used space-time teleportation to escape from the Ten-Tails' mouth, Kaguya Otsutsuki clenched her fist slightly. In that case, Isshiki might actually not have died, which is why the God Tree Fruit is so impure.

Moreover, Isshiki Otsutsuki still has a Karma seal. Kaguya thought back and realized that Isshiki had never used a Karma seal before, so maybe he really did escape.

Once Isshiki Otsutsuki uses the Karma Reincarnation technique, he will likely recover gradually.

If the Otsutsuki clan finds out that she, as the guardian, attacked the one she was protecting, she will definitely be hunted down by other Otsutsuki. There might be five or even ten Otsutsuki chasing after her.

Although those people might not necessarily like Otsutsuki Isshiki, they had even less reason to hold back against Kaguya, who had broken the rules of the Otsutsuki clan. They certainly wouldn't rest until they killed her.

"I can help you!"

Uchiha Yoichi suddenly spoke up.

His words startled Kaguya Otsutsuki, who asked, puzzled, "Why?"

"Because I hope you will become my wife, I want to help you."

Kaguya Otsutsuki asked, somewhat confused, "What is a wife?"

She had never heard of the concept of a wife before. Although the Otsutsuki clan had the same physical characteristics as humans, they had never had the concept of marriage and reproduction.

"The concept of 'wife' is unique to this planet. A man and a woman marry to help each other and, when faced with danger, combine their strengths to overcome disasters together."

Uchiha Yoichi explained, but he overlooked one point, which he couldn't tell Kaguya yet.

"To become husband and wife and help each other."

Kaguya Otsutsuki felt that they were somewhat like guardians and the protected, except that in the Otsutsuki world, only the guardians helped the protected, and the life of the protected was of paramount importance.

Then, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki looked at Uchiha Yoichi with her pure white eyes and asked, "Do you want to become my guardian?"

"No, they're a married couple!"

Uchiha Yoichi shook his head and said, "The relationships between you Otsutsuki are not suitable for me. And since you are here, you should naturally follow the rules here. So if I want to help you, the only way is to become your husband."

What is the relationship like between husband and wife?

Kaguya Otsutsuki gently shook her head and asked. She didn't know how husband and wife should get along, but Uchiha Yoichi's words touched her heart. The person in front of her also had chakra, was not weak, and was willing to help her. So, becoming husband and wife would not be bad.

Although I don't know what "husband and wife" means.

"No, Goddess!"

Suddenly a shout came from outside, and then the emperor of the Ancestral Kingdom hurriedly pushed open the door and rushed in, waving his hand and shouting, "Goddess, no! We can't be with this person of unknown origin!"

Bang!

Uchiha Yangyi waved his hand, and then the emperor of the Land of Ancestors was hit by a powerful impact. He was sent flying more than a hundred meters away and fell to the ground, turning into a puddle of mud.

"You all get out too!"

Uchiha Yoichi waved his hand again, sending the guards of the Emperor of the Land of Ancestors flying more than twenty meters away. He didn't kill them, but they would inevitably be bedridden for more than a hundred days.

After displaying his divine-like martial prowess, the wife and maids of the Emperor of the Land of Ancestors trembled with fear; however, Uchiha Yoichi still had their uses, so he did not attack them.

"Go inside and take the two children to the next room to take care of them. They'll be in your care from now on."

After Uchiha Yoichi finished speaking, the wife of the emperor of the Land of Ancestors did not move; she was too frightened to move. However, after Uchiha Yoichi pushed her with his hand, she recovered.

"Yes, yes."

They quickly agreed and climbed inside, carrying Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Otsutsuki Hamura out. Even though they didn't know who this person was, his powerful abilities made them wary of him.

Those twenty-odd people were the most powerful warriors and guards in the Ancestral Kingdom, but now they are all lying on the ground unable to get up.

After driving the person away, Uchiha Yoichi sat back down in front of Otsutsuki Kaguya.

Kaguya Otsutsuki didn't seem to care about Yoichi Uchiha's behavior. Those people were on a completely different level from her. If she didn't not know how to take care of Hagoromo and Hamura, she wouldn't have paid any attention to them at all.

After sitting back down, Uchiha Yoichi asked, "Let's continue talking about what happened earlier. What do you think?"

"I agree to get married, but what will we do after that?"

Of course it's you.

Without saying this aloud, Uchiha Yang glanced at the strategy guide and then said to Kaguya with a righteous expression, "You'll have to learn and observe for yourself. There are many couples here who marry to combine their strength to deal with disasters they can't withstand. You can use that method too."

"Is that so? It's very similar to our clan."

Kaguya Otsutsuki nodded and said that in that case, becoming husband and wife wouldn't be a bad thing. However, after thinking for a moment, Kaguya asked again, "If I were to go and observe, what about Hagoromo and Hamura?"

"They will take good care of you, you don't need to worry."

Uchiha Yang said, "I will also help you investigate your enemy. Since we've decided to become husband and wife, I naturally want to contribute. However, you should also observe and learn as soon as possible."

"Okay, I understand."

After hearing Kaguya Otsutsuki's words, Uchiha Yoichi checked the affection level in the [Strategy Guide]. At this point, Kaguya's affection level towards him had increased to 55.

They're at the stage where they won't make a move against him and think he's a very nice person.

All that's left is to slowly work out the strategy. If he can't win over Kaguya, who is ignorant and knows nothing, then Uchiha Yoichi's life will have been in vain.

However, in order not to affect the timeline later on, it seems that Kaguya's memories will eventually have to be sealed away.

Unless he immediately ends his contact with Kaguya, but returns to a thousand years in the future, his progress in conquering her will likely be stalled again. The system's hint is that the opportunity only exists in this timeline.

Uchiha Yoichi then urged Kaguya to observe and learn about the interactions between husband and wife, as it was closer to nighttime before she could begin her observation and learning.

----------

"A married couple, it sounds like they're guardians, except they need to protect each other."

As night fell, Kaguya Otsutsuki walked alone outside, still thinking about her conversation with Yoichi Uchiha that afternoon.

Isshiki Otsutsuki didn't die. She separated the chakra from her two children, which seemed to be affected by Isshiki Otsutsuki. If she wants to retrieve it in the future, she will have to prepare in advance.

She now has to marry that person and fight alongside him against Isshiki and the other Otsutsuki. In Kaguya's view, these are the people she faces the greatest enemies, so she needs Uchiha Yoichi's help.

"To learn how couples get along, you need to study at least fifty to one hundred couples. Let's study fifty couples."

Kaguya remembered the task Uchiha Yoichi had given her, so she decided to observe as soon as possible, and then the two of them would become husband and wife and fight against Otsutsuki Isshiki together.

"There seem to be quite a few couples here."

Kaguya Otsutsuki traveled to the neighboring Land of the Others, at the suggestion of Yoichi Uchiha.

The population of the Land of Ancestors is too small, and after the death of the emperor and other events today, many people are probably filled with fear. Therefore, Uchiha Yoichi suggested that Kaguya travel to other countries. In any case, with her strength, she is already invincible on this planet.

"Then they must be a married couple."

Kaguya Otsutsuki saw a man and a woman cuddling together, which fit the characteristics of a married couple as described by Uchiha Yang.

The couple was just about to go back inside, with smiles on their faces.

"They've gone back inside. What are they planning to do next?"

Kaguya Otsutsuki was curious, but she didn't want to stay by their side and watch, so she activated her Byakugan by activating the meridians around her eyes.

"Why did they turn off the lights? And take off their clothes. What are they doing?"

Kaguya watched for a while, then closed her Byakugan. She felt that such things were useless, as they neither increased her strength nor seemed to have any effect.

"Go and see the other couples."

Kaguya then turned around to look for other couples, but after observing several couples with her Byakugan, she found that they were all doing the same thing, which aroused her curiosity.

"Why is everyone doing this? Is it a necessary ritual between couples? What's the point of doing it?"

With a sense of doubt in her heart, Kaguya walked directly towards a couple's house.

Kaguya pushed open the door and went straight in. Seeing a man and a woman lying on the bed, looking frightened, she asked, puzzled, "Why are you doing this?"

"Who are you? Get out of here!!"

"Help! There's a madman!! Help!!"

The couple screamed in panic, and their voices quickly carried.

Kaguya Otsutsuki narrowed her eyes slightly, wondering why these two were shouting so loudly. Why didn't they just answer obediently?

However, remembering what Uchiha Yoichi had said, Kaguya turned and left, intending to ask another couple.

As for Uchiha Yoichi, he created a clone that resembled the emperor of the Land of Ancestors and used genjutsu to alter the memories of the emperor's wife and samurai guards.

Next, he needed to find out about the Onmyoji. Although he didn't know what would happen next, he had to deal with Otsutsuki Hagoromo when he got back. He and that guy couldn't coexist.
