****************
Colt never imagined his first conversation with Ōtsutsuki Kaguya to start like this.
The other party actually mistook him for someone else? She even identified him as the old Sage of Six Paths!
This was simply an insult!
After all, wasn't he still young and handsome? How did he look to her like an old man?
"No wonder, I have long felt that your kind of existence should not appear in the ninja world today. Could you be the reincarnation of Hagoromo's Chakra?"
Black Zetsu said with a bit of sudden realization:
"If that's the case, then it's no wonder you possess the Rinnegan and can use the Wood Style."
Speaking of this, Black Zetsu's voice immediately became angrier:
"Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo! You're still standing against your own mother"
"…" Colt was speechless.
Black Zetsu's imagination was too vivid.
Or maybe he had been making up stories for thousands of years, that he could now create one and believe it himself.
"I'm not the Sage of Six Paths, or Hagoromo, as you call him."
Colt reluctantly spoke, pointing at Naruto and Sasuke behind Ōtsutsuki Kaguya.
"On the contrary, the two of them are the reincarnations of Hagoromo's descendants. Isn't it a bit exaggerated to mistake me for the wrong and OLD person?"
Black Zetsu laughed mockingly:
"You still claim you're not Hagoromo, yet you can recognize them as the reincarnations of Indra and Asura. Only I, who has lived for thousands of years, could know that... it could only be you Hagoromo, their father."
Naruto, listening to their conversation, shouted incredulously, "Father?"
Sasuke's eyes were filled with complicated emotions.
What the hell was this? What was going on?
A vein popped over Colt's head.
Do you have to make it so dramatic?
He said, a little irritated:
"I already told you, I'm not the Sage of Six Paths!"
By now, Colt probably understood why Ōtsutsuki Kaguya was so sure.
The original two brothers, Hagoromo, inherited the powers of the Divine Tree, while his younger brother Hamura belonged to the Ōtsutsuki bloodline.
Today's Colt was more similar to Hagoromo than Hamura, and his Chakra was highly similar to the old sage.
No wonder Ōtsutsuki Kaguya was so convinced.
"Okay..." Kaguya nodded slowly, and the traces of her tears disappeared.
But in the next second, she suddenly lashed out!
Her long white hair grew wildly and became as sharp as steel, aiming to pierce Colt's entire body.
This move caught Colt off guard.
They were just talking, so why did it suddenly escalate?
That's not playing fair!
The Truth-Seeking Ball behind him expanded, enveloping his entire body and blocking Kaguya's attack.
Colt took advantage of the opening and delivered a powerful punch.
Kaguya quickly raised her arm to block, but she was still hit hard and sent flying a long distance.
Thus ended the first round of their confrontation.
"Hagoromo, I won't fall for your tricks again this time..."
Floating in the air, Kaguya still firmly believed that Colt was Hagoromo, and her words carried a hint of sadness.
It seemed that thousands of years ago, Hagoromo and Hamura's victory had been far from honorable.
"Mother, be careful of Indra and Ashura. Both of them possess the technique that could seal you."
Black Zetsu, acting as her strategist, began to guide Kaguya in combat.
And Kaguya, showing her trust in him, gently nodded.
Without warning, a black spatial crack appeared beside Sasuke.
[Yomotsu Hirasaka]
This is the ultimate space-time ninjutsu, a form of bloodline limit. Its speed is unmatched, even by the Flying Thunder God technique.
The next second, Kaguya's arm appeared beside Sasuke and pressed down on his shoulder.
Then Sasuke vanished.
"Sasuke!" Naruto shouted, forming a spiraling shuriken in his hand.
"Don't worry brat, your turn is coming too. Mother, banish this one to your space as well."
"But don't place the two of them in the same world."
Black Zetsu patiently guided his mother, who was woefully inexperienced in combat.
Hagoromo and Hamura's victory thousands of years ago had, after all, been due in part to Kaguya's lack of combat skill.
Now, with Black Zetsu's guidance, there would be no repeat of past mistakes!
Kaguya used her elusive spatial powers to send Naruto to one of her personal dimensions.
In this world, only two 'living' beings remained: Colt and Kaguya.
After securing Naruto and Sasuke, Kaguya turned her attention to Colt.
Her white eyes opened wide, and a fierce energy erupted around her.
The terrifying pressure swept towards Colt, making the very earth and sky tremble.
Just standing there, Colt felt as if the world itself was his enemy.
But... what was the world?
The purple glow of his Nine Tomoe Rinnegan flashed, and the overwhelming pressure vanished in an instant.
A storm brewed in the distance, the seas rising into terrifying waves. Overhead, dark clouds gathered, and arcs of lightning crackled ominously.
"Hagoromo, you will lose this time."
Kaguya spread her arms wide as her long white hair danced wildly behind her, sending out countless sharp needles.
With the Byakugan's incredible insight, she aimed precisely at every vital point on Colt's body.
If any of them struck, they would instantly immobilize him.
Colt's expression remained unchanged.
He extended his palm and flicked his wrist.
A sharp wind blade formed in front of him and shot forward without hesitation.
The seemingly indestructible hair needles were instantly shattered, but the wind-blade didn't stop. It continued its trajectory toward Kaguya like a roaring dragon.
"Such an attack won't work."
Kaguya calmly extended her palm, allowing the wind blade to approach.
But as soon as it neared her hand, the sharp wind dissolved into a gentle breeze, merely ruffling her robe.
"It really is pointless."
Colt nodded in agreement.
Though he had released the jutsu casually, it contained the power of the Six Paths. Normally, it would devastate any opponent beneath that level.
But Kaguya's mastery of Chakra nullified its effects entirely.
"If that's the case... then let's get serious."
Black lightning crackled in Colt's palms as the dense power of the Sage Arts caught Kaguya's attention.
"Hagoromo, your Sage Arts have become so powerful."
Back then, Hagoromo's mastery of the Sage Arts from Mount Myōboku had been one of the main reasons for Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's defeat.
A vein throbbed on Colt's forehead.
This woman was doing it on purpose, wasn't she? How many times had he told her?
He wasn't Hagoromo!
Swish!
Colt appeared in front of Kaguya in an instant, his right hand encased in lightning as he struck out.
Kaguya swept her sleeve, trying to knock Colt away with a gust of wind, but it was ineffective. Her sleeve was sliced cleanly off.
Zila!
Colt thrust forward without hesitation.
Kaguya's Rinne Sharingan spun, and in a flash, they were transported to a dimension filled with boiling magma.
She used the opportunity to put some distance between them.

****************
"Mother, be careful of his spatial ninjutsu."
Black Zetsu cautiously shared information about the Flying Thunder God Technique with Kaguya.
Since Colt came to prominence, he had collected a lot of relevant intelligence to relay to his mother.
Although Colt had not used the Flying Thunder God Technique in the battle just now, that didn't mean he would ignore it.
The Flying Thunder God Technique, a ninjutsu involving space, had surpassed ordinary techniques, making it worthy of Kaguya's solemn attention.
"I'll pay attention," Ōtsutsuki Kaguya nodded lightly.
With just a wave of her hand, the magma on the ground began to riot, and the gurgling sound of flowing magma echoed.
Rumble!
Hundreds of pillars of magma fire soared into the sky, aiming to swallow Colt.
(The Six Dimensions) were Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's exclusive technique, with the ability to integrate nature.
She could control all the natural elements as easily as moving her limbs.
If it were a force formed by ninjutsu, it would not be a threat to someone at the Six Paths level. But this magma was real, and combined with Kaguya's control, it was enough to deal damage at the highest level.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Colt moved effortlessly in mid-air, constantly dodging pillars of fire as they erupted around him. His Rinnegan shimmered with a purple glow.
"Almost..." Colt whispered. Having been in a state of evasion, he suddenly stopped.
Chakra erupted from him, blowing away the magma below.
Colt slowly brought his hands together.
With his movements, the magma formed two large hands that lunged toward Kaguya.
But the control was clumsy.
For the first time, Kaguya's expression shifted.
This was her own exclusive space, where she was like a creator.
Why could he manipulate the forces of nature here?
"It's not enough," Colt muttered, narrowing his eyes.
His right hand moved as if holding a brush, casually leaving a scratch in the void. Magma surged from the ground, aimed at her once again.
"Sure enough, Yakumo's bloodline has a high upper limit," Colt thought. The ability to control the magma came entirely from the Kurama clan's bloodline, using the power of Yin to manipulate reality.
If his artistic skills were better, Colt mused, he could have performed even more intricate actions. Unfortunately, his talent in that area was somewhat lacking.
Kaguya, guided by Black Zetsu, quickly subdued the chaotic magma. Faced with the overwhelming lava rain, she grew impatient and brushed her hands lightly.
In an instant, they found themselves in another space—a world of ice and snow. The transition from scorching heat to extreme cold was complete.
**********
Naruto, previously lost in Kaguya's space, had been sealed inside a thick glacier.
If not for breaking the ice with his Truth-Seeking Orbs, he might still be trapped.
After an initial moment of confusion, Naruto quickly regained his fighting spirit.
He began demolishing the icebergs, searching for a way out and for any sign of Kaguya.
"Colt!" Naruto's eyes lit up as he saw Colt and Kaguya locked in combat.
The two were fighting fiercely, too busy to pay attention to him.
Before he could say anything else, thick ice spikes surged from the glacier, besieging Colt from all directions.
At the same time, black spatial cracks appeared beside Kaguya. Half of her body vanished into the void, and her upper body materialized near Colt. Her hands were ready to strike at him.
Colt didn't dodge, allowing her to clasp his shoulders.
Ōtsutsuki Kaguya and Black Zetsu shared a look of triumph.
As the ancestor of Chakra, Kaguya believed that as long as she touched Colt, she could drain all of his Chakra.
But in the next second, her expression turned to shock.
"What? Why doesn't your Chakra respond to me?"
Colt, seemingly having anticipated this, slowly turned around.
"Did you forget that I keep saying I'm not Hagoromo?"
Colt had been aware of Kaguya's movements and had delayed acting to make her understand the situation.
After all, no one enjoyed being mistaken for someone else.
Seeing Kaguya's silence, Colt continued, "I'm different from your two sons. My purpose isn't to seal you this time."
"So, what do you want?" Black Zetsu interrupted.
"I don't want much," Colt said with a smirk.
He lifted Kaguya's chin, admiring her confused expression.
From this angle, the ancestor of Chakra seemed somewhat innocent.
"You've been sealed on the moon for a thousand years. That must've been hard..."
"You must be lonely. If you promise not to cause trouble, I'll let you live in the ninja world. I promise,"
"Hahah!" Black Zetsu let out a sarcastic laugh.
"You think you're clever, Hagoromo?" He had taken to calling Colt by Hagoromo's name out of frustration.
"You deceived her once a thousand years ago. Do you think you can succeed again?"
Kaguya's eyes grew resolute, and her long white hair shot out tiny silver needles, forcing Colt to retreat.
"There should be only one owner of Chakra in this world," Kaguya declared.
Colt waved his hand, once again manipulating the space.
Countless icicles transformed into roaring ice dragons, lunging at Kaguya.
In his mind, Colt wondered what the Sage of Six Paths had done to make Kaguya so distrustful.
"Mother, this space isn't favorable for us. Let's change to another," Black Zetsu urged.
With another wave of her hand, Kaguya transported them out of the ice world.
Inside, she felt a deep frustration—this was her space, yet Colt could manipulate it freely.
Naruto, left standing in the ice world, stared in disbelief.
It took him a while to come to his senses, and he wailed helplessly, "Don't leave me behind, Colt!"
**********
In the hypergravity space, Kaguya and Colt fell to the ground.
The space twisted due to immense gravitational forces, and even Kaguya couldn't stay airborne for long.
With no other natural forces for Colt to manipulate, Kaguya felt her mood improve.
They engaged in a fierce physical battle, each punch carrying immense weight.
The ground broke apart beneath them, and the sound of their clashes echoed across the space.
Kaguya was astonished—Colt's physical abilities exceeded her expectations.
Despite the gravity, his movements were barely affected, while she herself had slowed down significantly.
