Chương 54: Chapter 55
"You should make your home a bit warmer you know, this coldness is not helping you." I said as I woke up with my head on Kaguya's lap and was looking straight into her eyes
"Not helping me?" she replied with a soft voice
"I mean, you live in an empty ice castle alone without any furniture or anything entertaining while you could create them." I replied as I slowly got up to sit down in front of her
"...I don't know what entertainment is." Kaguya replied without any expression on her face but I could hear some sadness in her voice
"Hmm... Entertainment is something that humans created to provide them with amusement, pleasure, or enjoyment. It's something that helps them forget about the current state of their life." I explained to the clueless princess what I thought about entertainment
Looking at me completely innocently she declared "What you did with your wife is entertaining then?"
'Why does it always come back to this' I thought as I sighed inwardly
"Hum... Kind of, I guess? Why did you think that?" I asked since it was a good first step albeit on a kinky subject
"Both of you seem to feel 'pleasure' and 'enjoyment', even more, when yo-" I interrupted her as she was aiming at her non-existent breasts by saying "Alright I get it, no need to say more!"
I sighed and asked "Are you sure that you never felt something similar before?"
She turned her head a little to the side and replied "I only remember doing it once with Tenji, it was short and only for me to bear children... I didn't feel anything similar to what I felt when you and your wife did it together."
'She just roasted the poor guy didn't she?' I thought, but I couldn't deny that the second part filled my pride
"Wait, you feel something when you're spying on us?" I asked a bit surprised
"I think I do... Sometimes it feels warm, sometimes empty, and sometimes it hurts." she said as she put her hand on her heart and tightened it
'Longing, loneliness and... Jealousy?' I thought as I tried to comprehend her feelings
I shouldn't be that surprised since she followed my every action for the last thirteen years, and albeit it is a short time considering that she was sealed for so long, the never-ending events that she saw influenced her more than a thousand years of doing nothing.
'She's just confused about everything since she barely started to feel emotions' I thought again before replying "What you felt are 'emotions', it's parts of what makes someone 'human'."
"They can change depending on the situation... And what you feel about someone or something can also change with time, you just need to understand more about yourself." I added as she just gazed straight at me with her beautiful eyes
"But why are those 'emotions' stronger when I look at you? Why does it hurt more?" she added which made me flinch when I saw her softened expression
"It's, hum... I don't know how to answer more than what I already said but... I can at least tell you that what you feel is not something harmful." I replied a bit hesitant since I was far from being good with the subject, though Tsunade may know more
"Hn, I will trust you." she shortly replied with a smile which stunned me before adding "Your eyes are merging both of my sons' Dōjutsu which means that you are a step closer to your promise."
That was true, to improve my Dōjutsu one more time I needed to gather the nine tailed beasts' chakra, and right now I completed the Two, Three, Eight, and Nine-Tails chakra.
I was still reproducing the Four and Six-Tails chakra and had yet to get my hands on the One, Five, and Seven-Tails.
"Yeah, I just need to find or create a proper vessel for you since it would be pointless for me to help you if I end up losing my body." I mumbled as I scratched the back of my head
"I do not want to take over your body either." She declared which hurts me so I jokingly replied "What? My body isn't good enough for you?"
"That's not the reason, it's just that I would have nobody on my side if I take it." she replied, completely honest
'She looks like a child who searches for a friend' I thought as it was kind of cute from her
"Anyway, since I don't know for how long I'm going to be here, I will show you how we can make this place a lot better and who knows, it may entertain you." I suggested while getting up since I couldn't bear to stay in such a cold and empty room
Honestly, I had the feeling that the higher my Dōjutsu evolved, the more exponential the time I had to pass in this place was.
And the time here passed differently, which I couldn't understand since one hour was sometimes a day outside, a second or an hour.
Regardless, Kaguya accompanied me around the castle while I created furniture of all kinds since I could make Wood, Metal, and Crystal.
All the furniture I had to make needed to be 'coldproof' or they would just end up breaking from the sheer cold.
Every time I was coming here, Kaguya was just sitting on her knees directly on the floor, as such, I first decided to make the largest room a sort of living room with an extremely comfy sofa, armchair, different kinds of lamps, a huge dining table surrounded by chairs, and more.
I then decided to make a kitchen but Kaguya said that she didn't need to eat, I replied that she didn't need to feel hunger to experience the pleasure of eating.
I decided to cook a couple of my specialties which were the favorites of both Tsunade and Kushina.
This was possible because surprisingly enough, I still had access to the stuff I kept on me, and I always had ingredients to cook.
I was glad to see her expression shift into one of bliss when she tasted my food, but she didn't realize her own shift in attitude before going back to her usual cold and composed self.
Next was to make a bedroom, and a true one unlike the type of bedroom she had a thousand years ago, with a big bathroom next to it so she could also enjoy the feeling of a hot bath or a shower.
I had to explain to her how it worked since it truly was new to her.
After hours of renovation, I was able to make her express different kinds of emotions and even made her laugh once, which for me was good progress for her to experience life.
She then decided to show me her other dimensions, and uh... How should I put this, none of them is a place I would go for vacation, but I knew that she was somehow proud of them so I just went along.
One of her dimensions was a lava-filled land with a large volcano and another castle, one is a vast sand desert, one is a sea of acid, one is a weird pyramid-shaped dimension with massive gravity force, and lastly, the most normal dimension she had was a reddish mountainous area with a yellow sky.
After an unknown amount of time, when we came back to the ice castle and sat down in the living room, I felt my body shining which meant that my synchronization with the Tensei Rinnegan was over.
"It looks like my time here is over Kaguya-san, I hope that you will enjoy yours a bit more until I can revive you." I said smiling while being less formal since she asked me to stop saying 'princess' or 'sama'
"I will be waiting then." she replied with a surprisingly warm voice
The last thing I heard as I vanished was a subtle "Thank you."
====================
As my consciousness was drifting back towards my body, I felt a force trying to bring me at it, a force I was almost certain to recognize but I didn't like the idea to be forced to go somewhere once more.
'I refuse' I said in my head as I moved away from the place
When my consciousness was successfully back to the real world, I sensed my surrounding in a large area before opening my eyes because I didn't want Black Zetsu to know about them.
'Looks like he isn't watching me right now' I thought before slowly opening my eyes to see the ceiling of my bedroom and shifted my gaze to the right since I felt Tsunade's presence
It looked like she brought me to our bedroom and laid down with me since she was still clothed while peacefully sleeping.
I turned towards her and smiled when I saw her cute sleeping face before leaning my head to kiss her forehead and used one hand to move her hair away from her face.
This was enough to wake her up and the first thing she did when she opened her eyes was to hug me with her head nuzzled on my neck, too tightly but I was used to this, and said "Why are you always doing something like this to get stronger when you are already so powerful."
'I guess I should finally tell her more about the future' I thought because I always kept her in the dark since I didn't want her to worry too much
I put my hand on her back to hug her as well and started saying "It may be a little farfetched but you trust me right?"
She moved her head back and said "I will always trust you." as she looked into my new eyes while smiling warmly before gently laying her hand to the side of my face
I could talk about this subject without the fear of someone else hearing us since our bedroom was surrounded by a soundproof barrier, something we had to do since the day we had kids in the house.
"You see... Back when I left the village to travel around the world, I discovered something that greatly changed my view of it." I started explaining as she was quietly listening
"I discovered that we were far from being safe no matter where we would be on the planet, and even Grandfather wouldn't be able to protect us." I said which surprised her since Hashirama was still recognized as the strongest shinobi to ever exist
"There is a Clan that is capable of annihilating everyone living on our planet, a threat that I couldn't ignore." I continued as her look was now completely serious
"As such, I need to become powerful enough to prevent them from doing such a thing... I already have an agreement with the Tailed Beasts who gave me parts of their power, at least those whom I met for now, and the main boost in strength I can get is by evolving my Dōjutsu even further." I finished explaining
"And you intended to do this all alone?" she said in an almost angry tone
"Not completely alone since I intend to revive someone from their Clan that does not want to see our planet destroyed and who is capable of helping me... She has been sealed for a thousand years and the only way for me to help her is to gather the tailed beasts' chakra." I said as I scratched the back of my head
"She?" Tsunade shortly asked before adding "So you met her?" to which I nodded since I didn't want to lie to Tsunade anymore
"How is she? Is she strong? beautiful? Did she try to do something with you?" Tsunade bombarded me with weird questions
"She's someone who lost all human emotions from being sealed for so long, she's indeed very strong, stronger than me, I can't deny that she's beautiful and no, she didn't do anyth-" I replied but interrupted myself at the last part since I remembered the few times where she made me rest on her lap
Tsunade frowned before asking "What? Did she try something?"
"Hum, you know... Our meetings are not voluntary and happen when I lose my consciousness, like today or yesterday I don't know about that yet, and every time I 'wake up' in her dimension, she makes my head rest on her lap since there is nothing else but an empty ice castle." I explained while being completely honest since it was better to say it now instead of having Tsunade discover it when Kaguya is revived and let it slip
Luckily for me, Tsunade may be hot-headed when she is with others, but she doesn't burst out of anger with me and kept on listening to what I had to say.
"Also, she is the Senju Clan ancestor, as well as our common ancestor with the Uchiha, Uzumaki, Hyūga, and Kaguya Clan... This may be why she was so kind to me." I lastly added which made Tsunade sigh in relief
"Do you think I could meet her as well? I trust you but I can't say the same for her, I need to make my own judgment." Tsunade asked determinedly
Putting my hand on my chin, I suggested "There might be a way for you to talk to her since you are also a descendant but... You will suffer from sudden chakra exhaustion and lose your consciousness." as I thought about the 'God Tree Branch' which brought me before Kaguya the first time I touched it
"Let me do it." Tsunade said as she gazed directly into my eyes
"It may be dangerous, and I don't know what would happen to you there." I said but Tsunade quickly replied "Then you will understand my point of view each time you fell unconscious." with a smirk
I sighed and said "Your stubbornness is doing well today... Still, it's what makes you lovely, alright I won't stop you." before taking out the branch
"Please stay safe." I added after kissing her on the forehead before giving her the branch which started to absorb her chakra in a couple of seconds
It didn't matter to me how long it would take for her to come back, I will not leave her side until she does.
Looking outside, I saw that the sun was almost gone so I decided to change myself for the night and also lay Tsunade properly in the bed until she wakes up.
I understood why she was hellbent on meeting Kaguya, it was not because she didn't trust what I said, it was because she needed to talk with the being that was driving me towards a dangerous path.
No matter how strong I would be, Tsunade will always be worried for my safety more than anyone else, parts of her being a medical-nin could be the reason, but I remember that the day of her parents' burial, she swore to become the best medical-nin to always keep me safe.
I also hid my Rinnegan by making my eyes look exactly as they were before in case someone suddenly appears to watch me.
*A few hours later*
As I was still awake and watching over Tsunade while brushing her hair with my fingers most of the time, I sensed her face twitch which meant that her consciousness just got back.
"Welcome back." I warmly said as she opened her eyes before rubbing them a little
"Hn." she muttered before looking at me with a smile
'It seems that it went well' I thought as she seemed delighted
"So... I'm guessing that you now understand why I seek power?" I asked as I took my hand off her hair while she leaned to her side, facing me
She simply nodded at my question but then her face shifted to a more saddened expression as she asked "Do you think I will be able to stand by your side?"
Not understanding, I replied "You are already and you will forever be on my side Tsunade." to which she quickly answered "That's not how I meant it, I already know... I was talking about being on your side to fight against them, I realized how weak I am and the simple thought of seeing you fight powerful beings while I could only watch is an extremely unpleasant feeling."
I never thought about that... For me, as long as I could protect her I didn't see the need to help her gain enough power to be on par with the Ōtsutsuki.
'Is it a selfish wish of mine, to protect her by getting stronger without even knowing her feelings on the subject?' I wondered as I saw her depressed face
'Though, the stronger she is, the better her chances to survive would be in case something unexpected happens' I made my mind before asking "If... If we find a way for you to become stronger, you will try it no matter what?"
"As long as it doesn't include harming you, I will do whatever it takes." she declared determinedly
This made me smile as I replied "Then we will find a way, but only after our child is born."
She finally left her saddened state, hugged me more, and happily said "You're the best!"
I huffed and put my hand on her head before saying "What else did you talk about with Kaguya? If you don't mind telling me."
"Hmm, she was gentle with me the moment I appeared in her 'empty' castle, and when I asked why, she told me that since I was someone important for you, she would treat me with kindness." Tsunade started explaining
"I also understood what you meant when you talked about her emotions... When I was still skeptical about her, she was quite open and told me her past, and the way she reacted when she narrated was not how I expected someone who lived for so long to react..." she announced before I interrupted her by saying "You felt like she was just like a child passing through one emotion after another unknowingly?"
She looked at me with wide-opened eyes and replied "Yes! I quickly felt how powerful she was and yet, she felt so fragile, so unstable."
"She also told me about seeing everything from your eyes, which I didn't agree to since it meant that she saw us every time we..." Tsunade then said embarrassedly
"Ah about that one, I tried to tell her to stop but I don't have any power over it..." I said as I scratched my head
"And I told her the same but I don't think she will stop doing it since it is the only way for her to pass time... But you realize what the consequences are for her?" Tsunade declared which made me sigh since I had a guess
My face became more serious as I replied "She's rediscovering her feelings in a biased way since they are all essentially caused by me." to which Tsunade nodded
All our talk about Kaguya was fine since she could only see us, and not hear what we were talking about.
"I can't ask her to stop feeling like this since she doesn't know why she does... And I don't want her to start despising me since she is the only help we can get." Tsunade said as she hugged me even more tightly
"Sometimes, I wonder if I truly deserve yo- mmh!" Tsunade started to say but got interrupted by a sudden kiss from me
After a few seconds of intense tongue wrestling, I leaned my head back and said "Tsunade, no matter what, I will always love you, you are not replaceable nor do you need to be 'worthy' since you are the most important person in my existence... Without you, I don't know how fucked up I might have become, you changed my view of life itself..." which made Tsunade's cheeks scarlet red
I smirked and added "I finally have my cute Tsunade back." as I poked her cheek with my finger
She pouted but still nuzzled her head on my neck before softly saying "Can we stay like this for a while?" to which I replied "Well, we are still in the middle of the night and I don't have anything urgent to do tomorrow so... You can stay like this as long as you want."
"Hn." she muttered before slowly falling asleep in my embrace
'It has been a while since I passed an entire day simply laying in the bed' I thought with a smile as I looked at Tsunade
I will discover my new abilities with the Rinnegan and also the Zero-Tails starting from tomorrow.
I was eager to see how my previous Dōjutsu abilities evolved.

Yasashiki
Yasashiki Done.
It was a pain to write since I’m not good at writing chapters consisting of only dialogues, and when I have to focus it around Kaguya, I have to be even more cautious.
Some people might feel like Kaguya’s blooming feelings are kind of forced, I honestly think that being able to see from Mc eyes only and for 13 years already is something that can cause such a thing.
Now, Tsunade realizes Kaguya’s feelings towards Mc but there is no sudden love relationshipbetween Mc and Kaguya.
