The 'Ruthless' Kaguya
🕑 Added 2024-09-06 18:11:46 +0000 UTC--- Chapter 479 ---
At the Moon Castle's tea room, three celestial beauties designed a trap against the Otsutsuki Clan. The trap is decisive and added with several fail-safe methods.
"Ume, how many elders has Momoshiki awakened?" asked Kaguya suddenly.
Umeshiki was stunned but understood what Kaguya meant. Beside their late patriarch, who has ascended to a higher dimension, the Otsutsuki Clan's powerhouses are none other than their elders.
However, those elders were asleep to conserve their precious energy after the last war 100,000 years ago. They kept a schedule every one thousand years and rotated the temporary 'leader' role in the Otsutsuki Clan.
If Kaguya wanted her plan to be successful, she must know which elders were awake and who were asleep. They are detrimental to how she developed Yunlong's Kama.
She didn't want to make a weak Kama.
"It's Shijun," Umeshiki replied with a complicated expression.
"Oh?" Kaguya raised her eyebrow. This name caused a ripple in her calm blue eyes.
The current leader is an Otsutsuki Elder called Shijun, who comes from the same generation as the Otsutsuki Shibai. He's strong and ruled the Otsutsuki Clan with an iron fist.
When Kaguya just descended to the Shinobi World, the leader was a cruel woman called Otsutsuki Hanatsuki. Kaguya had confidence in defeating her by accumulating power in the Shinobi World, but Shijun is a different case.
Of course, we are talking about Kaguya of the past.
The current Kaguya is massively overpowering her past self.
"Is this guy strong?" Bibi Dong curiously picked on Kaguya's reaction.
Kaguya shook her head and replied, "Strong doesn't explain Shijun's ability."
"If we had to use a word, I would describe it as Untouchable."
"Mm, that's right." Umeshiki agreed with Kaguya's description.
Kaguya tapped her finger on the table nearby and explained, "Shijun's eyes possess two ocular abilities. One is called Sky God's Protection, and the other is called Deep Ground God's Reduction."
"One to create infinite dimensions, and the other to reduce transmission between those dimensions."
"They are harmonious with each other."
"With these abilities, he earned the moniker of Untouchable Sage."
"In short, he was an annoying cockroach."
"We can just cut those dimensions, no?" Bibi Dong tilted her head in confusion. It was such an easy problem to solve.
Umeshiki bit her lips and added, "I'm afraid many people have thought of such a method, Mistress."
"Unfortunately, none has succeeded because Shijun possessed a divine artifact called Lone Dragon's Bead."
"This bead basically adds another layer of protection and supplies Shijun with near-infinite energy. Not to mention, he wouldn't stay still and let you break his barriers."
"He'd run and throw heavy attacks at you..."
"He's a King of Attrition Battle."
"Hmm, is that so?" Bibi Dong pondered briefly. In the end, she only smiled and left Umeshiki speechless.
Kaguya also stared at Bibi Dong's smile and said, "You have a way to break in, don't you?"
Bibi Dong nodded casually, "Yes, but aren't you the same?"
"I only have ten," Kaguya replied with a scoff.
"Ten..." Umeshiki glanced at them back and forth in disbelief. Aren't you two a bit too much?
Why are you leaving me in suspense? Just tell me already!
Kaguya poured herself a tea and commented, "The problem with Shijun isn't only his abilities, but also authority. He's from the same generation as Otsutsuki Shibai, which made him the highest elder of elders."
"It means Shijun has enough authority to awaken every sleeping elder and command them."
"I didn't think much of them, but it would be annoying to deal with."
"Imagining over a thousand Otsutsuki Scums made my nerves tense in annoyance already."
'Excuse me. I was also one of those scums!' Umeshiki wanted to complain at Kaguya. Well, she didn't dare to.
Umeshiki has realized the current Kaguya is more ruthless. Maybe it's due to her love for Yunlong as well.
Unknown to Umeshiki, she guessed correctly.
If not for Yunlong, Kaguya would have wiped the Otsutsuki Clan herself and wouldn't have thought of such a 'waste of a trap' plan to keep them alive for her research in Kama.
It's good that Umeshiki couldn't read through Kaguya's mind, or else she'd get crazy any second.
"Since the Shijun is the current patriarch, let's adjust the trap." Kaguya suddenly said. "We don't have to put too much-complicated stuff because the Otsutsuki could analyze them easily."
"Sometimes the simplest trick is the most difficult to solve."
"Bibi Dong, what do you think of putting Heart Dissolving Poison into a pocket dimension?"
Bibi Dong's eyes widened slightly, 'Damn girl, you're ruthless.'
'But I like it.'
Heart Dissolving Poison is a Divine Poison concocted by the Poison Douluo, Dugu Bo.
It has the lethality to kill even a 1st Class God, given enough time for the heart-dissolving to act up.
One drop of this Heart Dissolving Poison is enough to become a colorless mist over a hundred-mile radius. Ten drops and even Gods would run with all their might.
Above all else, this Heart Dissolving Poison didn't affect one's body but soul! The very thing Otsutsuki is strong and weak at.
So what if the Shijun is untouchable? This Divine Poison could pass through one's divine sense and barrier.
Bibi Dong replied amusingly, "Very well, let's do that. But just a heads up, Dugu Bo only gave me thirty-three drops of them. It's not enough to cover a pocket dimension, especially your dimensions."
"No, it's more than enough." Kaguya's eyes lit up. She expected Bibi Dong to have ten drops, but three times the amount was welcome.
Umeshiki looked at Bibi Dong and Kaguya's understanding gaze as if they agreed to do something wicked. She shivered because she felt the Otsutsuki Clan was in the grasp of devils.
Did Umeshiki feel bad for her clan? Well, she did. Her love for Yunlong is the only reason she puts such matters in second if not third place.
Bibi Dong brought a jade bottle from her spatial storage and handed it to Kaguya.
Kaguya accepted it graciously, using her senses to see through the jade seal. Her lips curled into a smile, "Done. Let's put our little trap into motion."
"However, before that..."
"I need to meet someone."
"Someone?" Bibi Dong looked at her weirdly.
Kaguya put the jade bottle away and replied calmly, "Another Otsutsuki Clan member. An acquaintance of mine when we descended from the clan to harvest the Chakra Fruit, but I betrayed him decisively for a better future."
"Wow." Bibi Dong put on a curious look for gossip.
Kaguya ignored her fox-like expression and added, "To trap Otsutsuki and make them believe it, we need more than bait. Umeshiki will do, but it won't be enough."
"Isshiki is still alive," Umeshiki mumbled to herself. "Don't tell me you're planning to steal his eyes and their abilities, right?"
Otsutsuki Isshiki is like Umeshiki. He was from the 'main' family and was quite strong among the Shiki Generation. At first, the 'main' family thought he had disappeared, but Kaguya somehow betrayed him. It is uncalled for.
"That's what I'd do," Kaguya replied indifferently. "Back then, I thought I had killed him, but no. His life-saving ability is too strong and actually escaped from my senses for a thousand years."
"I will finish my job and kill him for good this time."
'That's how Yunlong's women should think.' Bibi Dong agreed with Kaguya's way of thinking.
"Do you want to follow me?" Kaguya prepared to go immediately.
Bibi Dong pondered for a bit before nodding, "Sure. I will leave a clone to watch over Sara and Toneri. I was a bit bored watching their training."
If Sara and Toneri heard what Bibi Dong said, they would sulk. Sorry that our training is boring to you! We just got into cultivation stuff, okay!
"I..." Umeshiki felt conflicted. She was about to watch a poor Otsutsuki get obliterated.
"You will follow me everywhere from now on." Bibi Dong ordered casually.
Hearing this, Umeshiki was speechless. "I-I understand."
