Chapter 68

Hagoromo began to think about how to persuade Naruto. How can he say anything to Naruto so that he can give some information?

Seeing Hagoromo standing in a daze, Naruto said with a grin, "You're wondering what my purpose is, right? All right, I'll tell you."

When Hagoromo finally heard that Naruto was going to say something, he began to listen curiously.

"My purpose... is to save your mother." Naruto said.

"Huh? How so? Why are you going to save my mother? No, she is a bad person!" Hagoromo was taken aback and angrily refused.

"Hey! It's not good to call your mother like that. I think she's actually a very good person. She turned against her clan just to protect you. But what did you do… You became a traitor and sealed her up." Naruto said.

Naruto said this sincerely. Naruto thought Kaguya was a very good person. The only mistake she made was turning people into white puppets. According to Naruto's estimation, the only reason Kaguya made them was because of the psychological effect state at the time.

Kaguya was actually a beautiful woman with normal feelings. But being beautiful in the world has always had a downside.

Kaguya was so beautiful that when the kings of most lands saw her, they would directly want to take her as a concubine. But Kaguya liked a normal individual, Tenji.

Tenji was a fool who was chasing an empty peace. He even betrayed his beloved for the sake of peace. Tenji had betrayed Kaguya, supposedly because he was afraid of her power. Tenji was seriously a big idiot.

"How do you know these?" Hagoromo was surprised. There was no way he knew what had happened at that time. Because the Shinju he caught was not the same as the Shinju inside Naruto. Therefore, he should not have been aware of what was going on there.

"How I know is unimportant. What matters is that you and your brother betray your mother. You fought her while she loved you so much." Naruto seriously didn't like these brothers.

According to Naruto's guess, Kaguya couldn't take it anymore when she saw her sons betraying her.

First, her lover betrayed, and then her children betrayed as well. There aren't many people who can handle such betrayal.

Kaguya loved her sons so much that she couldn't bear to hurt them. That's why she sealed herself by losing on purpose. Just like she didn't kill Tenji, her lover, but imprisoned him in Infinite Tsukuyomi so that he could have a happy dream.

According to Naruto's estimation, Kaguya was much stronger than her children. Because Kaguya had both eaten the chakra fruit and fused with the Juubi. So she definitely had to be a lot stronger than her children.

"But she imprisoned people in Infinite Tsukuyomi! She enslaved people!" Hagoromo nervously tried to argue that what he had done was right.

"Have you ever wondered why she did all these things?" Naruto asked.

Hagoromo didn't know how to answer, but then guessed, "Maybe to keep the peace?"

"Peace was only a small part of what she did. Her main purpose was to get stronger for the enemies to come." Naruto said.

Hagoromo frowned and said, "What enemy are you talking about? My mother ruled the whole world, she had no enemies."

"Your mother never told you about her enemies? All right, I'll tell you instead. Your mother's main enemies were her own clan. Your mother actually betrayed her own clan. That's why she thought that her clan would come to kill her for revenge." Naruto said.

"Did she betray? Why?" Hagoromo asked curiously.

"She didn't want to die by being sacrificed." Naruto said.

"Ha? For what would she be sacrificed?" Hagoromo asked.

"An Otsutsuki had to be sacrificed for the Shinju to yield proper chakra fruit. And that person, of course, was Kaguya. What you don't know is that Otsutsuki actually has a special technique. In this way, they can live immortally. But the weak point of this technique was that the person had to choose a new body suitable for himself." Naruto said.

After that, Naruto didn't speak for a while.

Hagoromo asked in surprise, "What happened? Why don't you keep talking?" He was curious because the story was exciting.

"Kaguya was going to be sacrificed for Juubi, but she would die because she couldn't find a suitable body. So she betrayed her partner and sacrificed him for Juubi. She knew that the clan would find out sooner or later and that they would come to the world for vengeance." Naruto said.

"Then why did she enslave all the people?" Hagoromo asked.

"Your mother was betrayed by your father at first. As a result, because she didn't want any more trouble, she decided that it was best to bring all the people under one genjutsu. In this way, the world would be at peace, and she would be able to protect the world from Otsutsuki by adding more strength to herself." Naruto said.

"But peace cannot be achieved that way. This is not ethical." Hagoromo said.

Naruto nodded in approval and said, "You're right about that. People should live their lives freely. I'm curious about your opinion. How do you think world peace can be achieved?

After thinking for a while, Hagoromo said, "If everyone treats each other well and if no one does evil, world peace will be achieved."

Naruto said with a laugh, "Hahaha. Yes, you are right, if there is such an environment, peace can be achieved. But what you say can only happen inside Infinite Tsukuyomi. That can't happen in real life."

He then continued after a sigh, "Human's biggest problem is being greedy. Always wanting to have more of the better. The poor want to be rich, the rich want to be even richer. Someone loves a beautiful girl, but someone else loves the same girl, and then there is a conflict. People are jealous of each other, and cannot accept that someone else is better than themself. And at the end of all this, there is no peaceful environment and wars begin."

"Countries fight each other for money for more resources. They start fighting with each other because someone can't stand someone or because they are jealous of them. As a result, their families are also involved in this fight later on, and eventually, the between lineage fight begins."

Naruto grinned as he looked at Hagoromo and said sarcastically, "Sounds familiar, right? Uchiha and Senju, or should I say your children? Although they were brothers, an entire lineage fought each other for many years. For what? It's just because you didn't choose your other child. . Here's the war between two lineages, born out of a conflict between brothers."

Hagoromo knew that what Naruto said was true. His face was sadly looking down as he recalled what had happened in the past.
