Capítulo 147: Time Flies
If anyone appeared at this moment, it wouldn't be surprising, but the appearance of the cat-eared loli was truly shocking. Everyone knew that the cat-eared loli was extraordinarily timid, hiding at the slightest hint of danger. No one expected her to show up now.
She moved with agility and incredible speed, like a black lightning bolt, charging directly at the stunned Kaguya. In an instant, she was at her side. Before she could get close, Kaguya had already noticed her.
Kaguya stood up, waving her arm, releasing an invisible force that exploded with a shockwave toward the cat-eared loli.
The cat-eared loli blinked her large, beautiful eyes, lightly tapped her foot, and gracefully arced through the air, successfully dodging the attack. Her flexibility was astounding; an ordinary person would likely have twisted their waist doing such a maneuver.
Kaguya's pupils contracted, and a white light emanated from her, signaling that her chakra was about to erupt. Just then, Kaguya's delicate face crumpled in pain, and she held her head in her hands, letting out a pained moan. The white light on her body suddenly vanished, replaced by a strange purple aura swirling around her, sometimes visible and sometimes not.
The opportunity was fleeting, and a cold light flashed in the cat-eared loli's eyes, a look inconsistent with her demeanor. Her petite figure turned into a stream of light, and in a blink, she was in front of Kaguya, throwing the kunai.
The kunai drew a beautiful arc and landed at Kaguya's chest, wedging in place. One must admit, Kaguya still had an impressive figure.
In an instant, Kaguya let out a sound, and her body involuntarily floated into the air. An extremely bright purple light burst from her, mist-like and cascading, turning the entire sky an eerie purple.
In the blink of an eye, time flew by, and more than a year had passed since the Fourth Shinobi World War. During this not-too-long period, many things happened.
Firstly, countries, both large and small, signed peace agreements, pledging not to engage in future wars. The world finally regained peace. Of course, everyone knew how effective such treaties could be; they were treaties when useful, mere paper when not.
However, it cannot be denied that large-scale conflicts between countries had disappeared since the peace treaty was signed. Though occasional skirmishes occurred, they were few, and peaceful development became the new trend in this war-torn world.
After all, the Fourth Shinobi World War was terrifying; humanity nearly perished in the flames of war. Fortunately, the battlefields were remote, and the affected areas were small, so there were not many casualties. But the property damage was severe, especially the several Tailed Beast Balls from the Ten-Tails, which leveled several distant towns. The scene was desolate, with scorched earth and ruins everywhere.
The main battlefield of the Fourth Shinobi World War turned into a meteor crater hundreds of miles wide and several miles deep, dramatically altering the landscape. The land was barren, and this place became known as the Valley of the End.
However, this no longer referred to the site of Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha's battle, but the place where the Goddess ended the source of evil and saved humanity. This battle was called the Final Battle.
But this wasn't what people cared about. They were interested in the whereabouts of the silver-haired girl who defeated the Ten-Tails, the source of evil. During the Fourth Shinobi World War, the silver-haired girl turned the tide single-handedly, defeating the Ten-Tails when humanity was on the brink of extinction.
Moreover, she used the Outer Path: Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique to revive those who died in battle. In the hearts of countless people, this power seemed divine, leading many to believe she was a god.
In the Land of Rain, where the silver-haired girl had lived for many years, people worshipped her as their Angel and the goddess who saved the world. Shrines dedicated to the silver-haired girl sprouted like bamboo shoots after rain and gradually spread worldwide. She was no longer called the Angel but the Goddess of the Moon, or Tsukuyomi.
Though it is unknown who spread this title, it wasn't entirely incorrect. Perhaps due to the silver-haired girl's influence, even the two little girls by her side gained divine status, known as divine attendants.
Unfortunately, after the Final Battle, the Goddess of the Moon disappeared. Some said she returned to the divine realm after destroying the source of evil, the God Tree. Others claimed she perished alongside the God Tree to save humanity. Some believed she was seriously injured during the battle and was recuperating in the human world.
There were even rumors that after the Final Battle, the Goddess of the Rabbit fell for a mortal man, and the two wed. Although this version was the least credible, it was the most popular because people preferred a heartwarming tale over a dry narrative.
"Mother, they say such things about you," a cute, twin-tailed blonde loli said disdainfully. "How shallow."
"Humans are inherently shallow," said a breathtakingly beautiful silver-haired girl with a faint smile. "Why bother getting upset over them?"
"But to be fair, they do have a point," the twin-tailed blonde loli said, pinching her chin with her pale fingers. "That tree was no good from the start. Calling it the source of evil isn't wrong, and Mother truly is a god."
"Don't go sticking labels on me," the silver-haired girl said, pinching the twin-tailed loli with a smile. "I don't want to be a god. I prefer being human, especially since I can eat lots of delicious food."
These two were none other than Kaguya and the Black Zetsu loli, known to the world as the Goddess of the Moon and her divine attendant.
At that moment, Kaguya felt her sleeve being tugged. She turned to see the cat-eared loli. The loli was tugging at the sakura-embroidered sleeve of Kaguya's short kimono with her pale little hands, blinking her big, clear eyes and looking at Kaguya longingly while rubbing her little belly.
According to the Black Zetsu loli, in the most critical moment, the cat-eared loli displayed abilities that didn't match her usual demeanor, dodged Kaguya's storm of attacks, and placed the kunai containing dragon vein chakra on Kaguya.
Kaguya found this incredible. The cat-eared loli had always seemed so delicate and timid, not at all the type to do something like that. To Kaguya, it was as unbelievable as a dumpling stuffed with garlic.
However, after Kaguya carefully inspected her—emphasis on "carefully"—she found nothing unusual. She seemed the same as before, still appearing meek and easy to bully.
That wasn't to say the inspection was without its benefits. Kaguya pinched her creamy fingers and gave a mischievous smile, thinking this kind of inspection could become a regular thing.
"I want to eat; I want to eat dumplings," a sweet voice interrupted Kaguya's thoughts.
"Alright, alright," Kaguya said, patting the cat-eared loli's head with a gentle smile. "We'll go eat now."
With that, Kaguya pulled out a white fox mask with red patterns, putting it over her flawless face. She also took two other masks from her bag and handed them to the Black Zetsu loli and the cat-eared loli.
"Do we really have to wear these?" the Black Zetsu loli asked, pouting. For some reason, she seemed to have an aversion to wearing masks.
"Of course, we have to wear them. We're sneaking into the village," Kaguya said with a faint smile, taking the mask from the Black Zetsu loli's hand and putting it on her face. "There, much better."
Seeing the Black Zetsu loli with the mask on, Kaguya couldn't help but cover her mouth to stifle a laugh.
The mask on the Black Zetsu loli's face was that of a fierce black demon.
The Black Zetsu loli sighed and resigned herself. After all, this was her beloved mother.
She didn't realize that it was Kaguya's playful mischief.
