Mito currently had no good feelings for the Sage of Six Paths and his brother, even though they were her ancestors.
Both the Senju clan and the Uchiha clan were descendants of the Sage of Six Paths, and all of this seemed to stem from the conflict between the Sage of Six Paths's two sons.
Mito even suspected that it might have originated from a poorly divided inheritance, leading to continuous fighting between the two brothers. She had no doubt that the Sage of Six Paths could have stopped the brothers' conflict, but he simply didn't handle it well.
It was precisely because of the conflict between Asura and Indra that the Senju clan and the Uchiha clan were constantly at odds. Mito had personally witnessed the cruelty of the Sengoku era, she was one of the few ninjas from that era still alive.
The Sage of Six Paths allowed his two sons' Chakra to reincarnate repeatedly and cause trouble. There was no reason he couldn't have prevented it.
Now, he had even reincarnated into Kazuki, which, while making Kazuki's growth astonishingly fast, also planted a ticking time bomb within his body.
The Sage of Six Paths's brother seemed to have some familial affection, even going to the moon to accompany his mother. He appeared to have more conscience than the Sage of Six Paths, but considering his descendants secretly controlling the Ninja World, Mito couldn't remain calm.
Indeed, the Sage of Six Paths and his brother were the biggest masterminds behind the Ninja World.
Perhaps their mother, Kaguya, was unwilling to associate with them, and even wanted to stop them, which is why she was mercilessly sealed by them.
Of course, she might not have been a good person either. She and the Sage of Six Paths simply had a disagreement over spoils.
As for what benefits the Sage of Six Paths and others gained from the wars and deaths of ninjas in the Ninja World, Mito didn't know, but did it matter?
At any rate, reasonable suspicion was essential.
"So, the Hyuga clan might have the information we're looking for?" Mito said thoughtfully.
"Perhaps the Hyuga clan themselves don't understand where they truly came from. Combining this with the conditions for the Tenseigan's appearance, I suspect the reason the Hyuga clan developed the Caged Bird Cursed Seal was very likely to guard against the Ōtsutsuki clan on the moon."
Kazuki pondered for a moment before shaking his head and saying, "It's just that too much time has passed, and they themselves have forgotten why they set up the Caged Bird Cursed Seal."
"The Caged Bird Curse Seal has transformed from a means of protecting clan members into a means of controlling the branch families."
"If that's the case, everything seems to make sense."
Mito earnestly advised Kazuki, "However, you still need to be careful. If there are many powerful ninjas on the moon, even you might find it difficult to contend with them."
Kazuki said, "I know. The Ōtsutsuki clan is indeed powerful, but I believe I will surpass them."
Now that he knew the Daimyo might be backed by those moon people, Kazuki wasn't too worried.
If things truly go awry, once the Ōtsutsuki clan's internal strife begins, who will still care about the Daimyo and their affairs?
Of course, Kazuki wanted even more to use the Daimyo to lure out those Otsutsuki. He coveted the Ōtsutsuki clan's heritage, and now that he had awakened the six tomoe Rinnegan, he was confident in fighting the moon people.
Their Giant Tenseigan possessed immense power and if controlled properly, it would be a terrifying space-based weapon. Kazuki strongly suspected that the Giant Tenseigan's creation was for the Ōtsutsuki clan to defend against those Otsutsuki from outside the planet. It was just that the outsiders never arrived, but internal problems arose instead.
Kazuki was not afraid of the Giant Tenseigan. Instead, he was interested in it. No one was more compatible with the Giant Tenseigan than him.
Kazuki possessed the purest Ōtsutsuki physique. Was there anyone on the moon now whose physique could compare to Hanaki's?
He was very curious if the ocular power within that Giant Tenseigan could help him get stronger.
If there was a way to absorb the Giant Tenseigan's ocular power, then his strength would significantly increase. Moreover, he also needed to consider whether that Giant Tenseigan could help Rinka and others achieve bloodline regression.
In terms of Byakugan purity, Rinka's was extremely high. Although she might not compare to the future Hinata, Kazuki believed she definitely had more potential than Hinata. This could be seen from how the future Hinata, despite knowing she had great talent, simply became a housewife.
She knew she might face the threat of the Ōtsutsuki but she still stayed at ease.
If it were Rinka, Kazuki would not have the slightest doubt that she would definitely work hard to get stronger and then fight alongside him against the powerful opponents they might encounter in the future.
This was the difference in mindset. Hinata's type was destined not to become a strong person.
As for saying that women should marry and raise children, look at Mito, wasn't she once one of the top ninjas in the Ninja World?
Without her, Konoha would have fallen apart many times over.
"Mm, it's good that you're confident." Seeing Kazuki act like this, Mito didn't say much more.
She also felt that Kazuki was a good child she could trust. Besides some hidden dangers within him, she didn't need to worry about anything else.
...
For the next period, Kazuki was not as busy as before. During work hours, he diligently checked accounts, and after work, he ate and drank as he pleased.
Hiruzen had no complaints about this. He only occasionally inquired about Kazuki's progress and urged him to investigate with confidence, thoroughly, and carefully, ensuring no oversight.
Kazuki, having received Hiruzen's hint, naturally understood what Hiruzen meant. This was telling him to investigate slowly. Indeed, the linguistic art of these leaders made him feel a headache.
Many ninjas simply didn't have this kind of talent or thinking.
And on this day, when the combat arena refreshed, Kazuki's eyes lit up.
Although the opponents encountered in the combat arena over the past two months were not strong, which disappointed him somewhat, he wasn't too dissatisfied.
After all, the refreshed slots depended on luck. Sometimes, powerful individuals that he was interested in would refresh, but sometimes, they were useless.
Kamui's Hidden Tears — Masked Obito
Cross-Time Rescue, Fourth Great Ninja War — Edo Tensei Minato
Strongest Genjutsu, Fourth Great Ninja War — Sakura
Dying Friend's Gift, Dual Mangekyo Sharingan — Kakashi
Perfect Two-Tails Jinchuriki — Yugito Nii
Very good, none of the opponents this time were simple. An ordinary Kage-level ninja, apart from Sakura, probably wouldn't be able to defeat any of them.
