Chapter 532 An Excuse for Incompetence
Chapter 532 An Excuse for Incompetence
It should be noted that while ordinary wars in the ninja world also cause casualties, they are relatively small in scale.
However, once powerful figures like Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju stepped onto the historical stage, the situation changed drastically.
Their arrival dramatically escalated the brutality of the war, raising it to a level that could destroy a nation.
Moreover, throughout the centuries, each of their reincarnations has resulted in unparalleled masters.
The wars they started have continued unabated, and countless innocent people have lost their lives.
However, Hagoromo Otsutsuki completely ignored all of this tragedy.
It's as if the lives lost in the war are as insignificant as blades of grass.
As long as Kaguya can be successfully sealed in the end, all other sacrifices can be easily erased.
Such behavior is truly chilling and appalling.
When Qianyao first encountered this storyline, he keenly observed the flaws within it.
It's important to know that Hagoromo Otsutsuki has lived for so many years.
How could I not know the individual characteristics of Indra and Asura?
What is puzzling is that, even so, he deliberately stirred up conflict between the two of them on his deathbed.
Their purpose was clearly to trap them in an endless cycle of reincarnation.
This is Hagoromo Otsutsuki, who possesses the powerful Yin-Yang Mark capable of sealing Kaguya's strength, effortlessly reviving Naruto from the dead, and assisting Sasuke in awakening the Rinnegan with six tomoe.
If he truly wanted to stop the two from continuing their fight, he would have had ample opportunity to do so over the course of a thousand years.
At this moment, Hagoromo Otsutsuki's face showed astonishment, completely unexpected that Chiyo would know so much about something from so long ago.
Suddenly, he frowned and asked in a serious tone:
"How exactly did you learn about these events that happened a thousand years ago?"
Because he was in a deep sleep for many years, his perception of the passage of time was quite vague, and sometimes he would sleep for decades or even hundreds of years at a time.
Therefore, in Hagoromo Otsutsuki's memory, what Chiyo described seemed to have happened only a few years ago.
However, when he stared intently at Qian Yao's young face, he immediately realized:
—The fact that Qianyao knows those secrets from a thousand years ago is itself a huge mystery.
Qian Yao twisted his neck, and the old man maliciously intruded into his mental world!
Anyone with eyes can see that this guy is no good, so why would he tolerate him?
"You came here to find me, did you just want to chat idly?"
Instead of directly responding to Hagoromo Otsutsuki's question, Chiyo coldly retorted with a question of her own.
Hagoromo Otsutsuki's gaze was piercing, fixed on Senyou, and he said in a deep voice:
"It was precisely because of your sudden appearance that the predetermined trajectory of fate underwent a dramatic change and shift."
He paused, then continued:
“You shouldn’t be here in the first place, and you shouldn’t be disrupting the existing order.”
Faced with the accusations, Qian Yao seemed unconcerned, dismissing them lightly:
"So what? I'm already here."
Hagoromo Otsutsuki's expression turned cold, and he rebuked sharply:
"You must understand that once you deviate from the path of destiny, the future of the ninja world will become unpredictable and out of control!"
"If my mother successfully breaks free from her bonds, the entire Ninja Star will face annihilation and be destroyed in an instant!"
However, Qianyao scoffed at this, a mocking smile playing on his lips, and said with disdain:
"What so-called fate is nothing but an excuse for your own incompetence."
"Besides using this method to seal Kaguya, I'm afraid we can't think of any other way."
He then continued his relentless attack:
"I don't care about those vague notions of fate you're talking about."
"No matter who is missing, the world will continue to function as usual."
"Stop praising your mother as something superior; she was just a member of the Otsutsuki family."
Seeing that Qianyao's attitude was tough and unyielding, they realized that Qianyao was not going to listen to reason.
Yu Yi unleashed boundless killing intent at Qian Yao, roaring angrily:
"You stubborn fool, for the sake of the bright future of the ninja world, you cannot be allowed to live today!"
Before he finished speaking, the terrifying power of his eyes erupted from the massive body of Hagoromo Otsutsuki like a volcanic eruption.
Its Rinnegan shone with a chilling light as it stared directly at Qian Yao.
However, faced with this powerful blow, Qian Yao only felt his body become slightly heavy, as if he were immersed in bottomless water.
He casually moved his hands and feet and found that although his movements were slightly hindered, he was not completely frozen as he had expected.
Upon seeing this, Hagoromo Otsutsuki's face showed utter astonishment, and he exclaimed in disbelief:
"How can your soul be so resilient!?"
Qianyao curled his lip in disdain and sneered:
"Hmph, old man, it seems you're nothing special after all!"
In an instant, countless dazzling bolts of lightning rained down like a torrential downpour within Qianyao's spiritual world.
It struck Hagoromo Otsutsuki hard.
Hagoromo Otsutsuki dared not be negligent in the slightest, and hurriedly mobilized all his chakra to form a light purple protective sphere on his body.
This sphere of light acted like an indestructible shield, blocking out all the dense, continuous lightning bolts.
Nevertheless, the immense power displayed by Chiyo still shocked Hagoromo Otsutsuki.
He never imagined that anyone could possess such immense spiritual power.
At this moment, as the fierce battle between the two sides continued, the entire spiritual world of Qianyao began to shake violently, as if it would collapse at any moment.
Immediately afterwards, a blinding light suddenly burst forth from the previously dim sky, and an enormous sun appeared.
Sunlight shone on Hagoromo Otsutsuki's body.
Suddenly, wisps of blue smoke rose from Hagoromo Otsutsuki's body, as if he were being scorched by raging flames.
The intense burning pain instantly spread throughout his body, causing him to let out a muffled groan.
As the pain intensified, his form began to become ethereal, as if he might vanish into nothingness at any moment.
Hagoromo Otsutsuki knew that he was no match for Chiyo on a spiritual level.
Left with no other choice, he had to use all his strength to desperately escape from Qian Yao's body.
Just then, Qianyao, who had kept his eyes closed, slowly opened them.
In an instant, his malicious perception sensed that Hagoromo Otsutsuki had already fled the place.
Karin, whom he held tightly in his arms, looked at Chiyo with a worried expression and asked with concern:
"Master, what's wrong? What happened?"
Since Karin cannot see the existence of a spirit, she is completely baffled by everything that has just happened.
Even so, she still nestled obediently in Qianyao's arms, quietly waiting for her master's response.
In fact, although Chiyo had a fierce and long conversation with Hagoromo Otsutsuki in her mind.
But in the real world, it's just a fleeting moment.
After all, the flow of time between the realm of consciousness and reality is completely different.
After a while, Chiyo gently released Karin from his arms, patted her hair tenderly, and comforted her:
"Don't worry, I'm fine. Go and call Kato Dan and Kurama Yakumo to come see me."
Hearing her master's instructions, Karin, though still feeling a little uneasy, nodded without hesitation:
"Yes, Master!"
She then turned and quickly left to search for the two people as her master had instructed.
