Chapter 45: Otsutsuki Clan.

"Sigh. I am already numb with your ridiculous information, Yellow Flash. In fact I will not be surprised If you also say that the infamous Uchiha Madara of your Konohagakure is also already got resurrected." sighed Onoki.

"You are correct, Sandaime Tsuchikage. Madara really got resurrected. However, he was not resurrected by me. He was resurrected by him." said Zokuto, pointing at his bodyguard. "By the way, let me introduce you guys to my anbus. Here is Uchiha Obito, the one who resurrected Uchiha Madara."

"You! I know you. You are the guy that wounded me, and because of you, Killer Bee was killed. Pay for what you did!"

The moment Obito opened his mask, Raikage instantly recognised him. He instantly tried to attack him with a punch. However, Zokuto caught his hand and stopped him from any further attack. "Hold on Raikage. Although he is not innocent in that incident, he is being manipulated by Madara. I will explain this to you later. As for Killer Bee, I will help you resurrect him later." said Zokuto, trying to cool down the raging Raikage.

"Hmph." Raikage just hmphed, but still listened to Zokuto, and calmed down.

"This is Uchiha Shisui, and this here, you all should already know him."

"Kakashi, the Copycat Ninja!"

"You sure got a lot of sharingan users at your side, Kyokage. I really envy you." said Onoki, a bit dejected of the fact that Zokuto and his gang are all sharingan dojutsus user. "So, I assume Madara is also in your new village, right?"

"Actually no." replied Zokuto, shaking his head. He then added, " This is actually the reason of this meeting. Last month, I used the identity as the Godaime Hokage to call for this 'All Kage's Meeting' to discuss about Madara. More specifically the fourth Sage of Six Path."

"There are already four Sage of Six Path?" all Kages exclaimed in shock.

"Correct. The first one is Otsutsuki Hagoromo. He is the one we all have heard as a legend. Second is me. Then, Obito also become Sage of Six Path after becoming the Jyuubi's Jinchuuriki not long ago. Raikage, you should still remember the incident that almost killed you a month ago, right?"

"So, it was you who used that underhanded attack to wound me." said A in anger.

"Calm down Raikage. It was not his intention to wound you." said Zokuto. "He at that time was under Madara's influence." added Zokuto.

Hearing that, Raikage cool down a bit.

"A few years back when Madara fought Hashirama-san, he used Izanagi and sacrificed one of his eyes to prevent himself from really dying in Shodaime Hokage's hand." Zokuto.

"He lived after that fight?" asked Hashirama.

"Yes. However, he is so weak at that time." answered Zokuto. He then started telling these Kages about black Zetsu, Obito, Nagato, and the Akatsuki. He also told the story about how Black Zetsu manipulated Obito to resurrect Madara. After that, he continued telling them of when Madara used Infinite Tsukuyomi to gain more power.

"In the end, I was forced to use my Rinnegan ability to literally reverse time to before Madara used the Infinite Tsukuyomi. After that, I used another of my Rinnegan ability to send him and Black Zetsu towards nine years in the future." said Zokuto.

"In other words, he will appear again nine years in the future?" asked Onoki in confirmation.

"Yes."

Silence drifted in the meeting room for a few moments.

"Kyokage, in your current state as a Sage of Six Path, will you be able to fight against Sage of Six Path Madara?" asked Rasa.

"To tell the truth, I could go toe to toe with him. However, defeating him is not my desire. I left the task of defeating Madara to others of this generation. That's why I decided to send him to the future, so that there is still a time for this generation to prepare to fight against him later." replied Zokuto.

"Why are you excluding yourself from fighting against Six Path Madara?"

"That's because he is not the only enemy that we need to be wary of. While you guys are declaring a war against each other for so many times, you guys did not even know that there are other forces out there that can wipe you guys out in one fell swoop." said Zokuto.

This new revelation shocked these Kages into silence.

"Son, is that true?" asked Minato.

"As much as I want to deny it, that really is the truth." nodded Zokuto. "I'm not sure about other forces, but there is one that I certainly know. This one is called the Otsutsuki Clan."

"Otsutsuki? Is that clan related to the Sage of Six Path, Otsutsuki Hagoromo?" asked Mizukage.

"To be exact, they are relatives to Hagoromo's mother, Otsutsuki Kaguya." answered Zokuto. "Otsutsuki Clan is a clan that lives far far away on an unknown star out there. This clan is regarded as one of the strongest clans out there. To top it of, they like to harvest the power of other planets by planting Shinju in those targeted planets. This Shinju when planted, will absorb the energy of the planet, and bear fruit that was called Chakra Fruit. Once this fruit is mature, the Otsutsuki will then harvest that fruit and consume it to gain great power."

Zokuto stopped his story for a moment to let thebothers digest the story. The others who was listening to the story expressed their surprise and incredulity.

Zokuto continued, "A millennium ago, the Otsutsuki clan sent two people to plant the Shinju on earth. These two are Otsutsuki Kaguya and Otsutsuki Isshiki. Isshiki is a member of the main Otsutsuki family, while Kaguya is the matriach of the branch family. In the Otsutsuki's first plan, they intended to sacrifice Kaguya to become the vassal of the Shinju, who is also the Jyuubi. However, Kaguya didn't want to become sacrifice, and betrayed Isshiki, leaving him half dead. After that, she cultivated the Shinju until it bear fruit, and ate it to gain great power."

"While Kaguya gained power from the Chakra Fruit, Isshiki who is left half dead managed to survive and still out there somewhere, restarting the Otsutsuki clan plan to harvest the energy of this world." Zokuto.

The Kages waited for Zokuto to continue, but he seems to just stop until there.

"What happened to Kaguya and Isshiki after that? Did they go for a second fight?" asked Hashirama, a bit excited about those story.

"Good question there Shodaime Hokage." said Zokuto, almost laughing for being able to fish out the Kages interest in hearing such story-telling.

"Isshiki did not go for a second round fight with Kaguya, instead he formed his own group called Kara. However, I don't know much about this group. On the other hand, after consuming the Chakra Fruit, her personality changed. She changed into someone that thirst to take all of the chakra energy in the world, including the chakra energy that she dispersed into her twin sons.

Her sons thought that she was no longer her, but the embodiment of the Jyuubi itself. They then fought their own mother, and sealed her using Chibaku Tensei. That Chibaku Tensei floated into the sky and turned into Moon. After that, the twin decided to do their own task. Hamura went to Moon to guard their sealed mother, and Hagoromo stayed here in this shinobi world to spread ninshuu." Zokuto ended his story-telling, and inhaled a deep breath.

"Okay, so that is regarding the first two Otsutsuki member that reached this world. Another one that I did hear is someone called Otsutsuki Jashin. This guy came to check on the Shinju progress in this world. However, he ended up fighting against the Sage of Six Path, Hagoromo. In the end, he was sealed by Hagoromo. However, he still manages to spread his teaching about immortality, and gained some cult believer of his teaching. These cult is called Jashinist, and they usually kept themselves hidden."

"Is there any other Otsutsuki people came after that?"

"I'm not sure. However, the possibility is high as it has been a long time since the time Jashin got defeated by Hagoromo." replied Zokuto. "By the way, I heard these story all from Hagoromo himself."

"The Sage of Six Path is still exist?" Kages.

"Yes. Ah! here he is. And also...Hamura?" Zokuto looked up and saw the two Otsutsuki brothers floating above the roof of the meeting hall.

"The Sage is here?" everyone got surprised, but also felt excited. They got out of the meeting hall and looked above, and saw two etherial being, floating on the sky.

"Deity-san, you didn't have to tell about our whereabout. We are only here to listen to your story."

"Hahaha. Well, they already know." Laughed Zokuto. "Everyone, let me introduce them to you guys. The one with a short hair and holding on to the black rod is the Sage of Six Path, Otsutsuki Hagoromo. The one standing at his side is his twin brother, Otsutsuki Hamura."

"Greeting ancestors." greeted the Kages.

Hagoromo just waved his hand. "You guys already heard about us from Deity-san. What he said is entirely true. Therefore, I hope that you guys will stop the fighting and war, and focus on spreading peace between yourselves. The threat that came from my clan from the other star is greater than just the threat from a single Uchiha Madara. I hope that you guys can combine your effort to contend the threat from the Otsutsuki." said Hagoromo, trying to spread his idea of peace.

'Deity-san?' The Kages were curious about that calling. It seems that Hagoromo held Zokuto in high esteem for calling him 'Deity'.

"Sage-sama, that Six Path Madara is as powerful as 'Deity-san'. Moreover, 'Deity-san' is unwilling to fight against him. On the other hand, we can be said to be too weak to fight against such an enemy. So, do you perhaps have a way, or a ninjutsu that can make us powerful enough to contend against that Madara?" asked Mei.

"I agree to that." nodded Raikage. "If 'Deity-san' did not save me, I would be long dead after getting wounded by a single attack from that guy, who turned into a Sage of Six Path."
