Chapter 488 - Chapter 153: The Beginning of Teacher-Student Bonds Between Kaguya and Aomi? Uchiha Itachi Becomes a Part..._2

"But I don't have the Divine Tree, although I've developed the corresponding Jutsu, the speed is still too slow."

"However, in order to counter the Six Paths Sage, being a bit stronger is still good..."

Aomi sighed and shook his head, saying: "This is us mortals, what we do often seems ridiculous to those above, but it's the limit of what we can achieve in our struggles."

Though...

Aomi's words were touching, for a moment making Kaguya feel the spirit of an ant daring to challenge the dragon...

That unyielding willpower!

But the next moment, just as Kaguya was moved, she remembered the person in front of her was Aomi.

A "mortal" who can imitate and even surpass the Divine Tree with his body?

"Haha..."

Kaguya laughed awkwardly, trying to put on a straight face, muttering, "Right, right... you're right, Aomi..."

[Derived from special talent—Kaguya's fear, your Otsutsuki Bloodline has been purified!]

[Kaguya's Fear]: Every time your strength increases, your mastery of Ninjutsu, and your combat understanding exceed Kaguya's cognition, your bloodline receives extra purification.

Kaguya's face froze completely, she seemed vaguely aware that Aomi had grown stronger again?

Once, Kaguya thought she had seen geniuses in the Otsutsuki Clan, many in the main family were considered exceptionally talented.

But compared to Aomi's speed, those geniuses seem more "mortal"...

"So you must strive to become stronger, Kaguya!"

Aomi and Kaguya locked eyes, seriousness shining in his gaze: "Your talent far exceeds mine; mastering combat techniques and skillfully using your power is the best way to deal with those evil Otsutsuki!"

"I will teach you all my expertise, as long as you want to learn and study seriously..."

In Aomi's clear black eyes, Kaguya saw only sincerity.

Aomi truly wanted to help her!

"I, I understand now, Aomi..." Kaguya waved her small red and white fists: "I will do my best!"

After witnessing Aomi's talent...

Kaguya almost saw hope for a peaceful life afterward!

Though the Six Paths Sage, Isshiki, Hamura, and the Otsutsuki from beyond the heavens were eyeing warily, maybe soon, they'll boldly attack Aomi!

Even if Aomi's talent is amazing, the gap in background makes him still a yet-to-grow genius, unable to convert potential into immediate power to defeat enemies.

But... isn't she within Aomi?

Compared to facing those fearsome enemies alone, Kaguya has an idea...

If continuing to assess, Aomi is someone trustworthy.

Then Kaguya wouldn't mind lending her power to Aomi, helping him survive the initial phase of being pursued by powerful foes, slowly growing...

Consider it a... different kind of cultivation?

Kaguya's face blushed unconsciously but maintained a certain degree of calm.

No matter how much Aomi pleases her, now's not the time for a romantic mindset!

Kaguya constantly warned herself: "It's not time yet! Kaguya, you're just using Uchiha Aomi to learn combat techniques, he's not someone you can trust!"

"You don't know him at all, you must stay calm, you can't be deceived again like before!"

Kaguya, once betrayed by Otsutsuki Hamura and Hagoromo, has a certain level of vigilance.

While Aomi doesn't know what Kaguya thinks, nor does he care.

What Kaguya wants is for Aomi to accept her power and temporarily abandon the Ninja World to hide, waiting for his strength to grow...

But Aomi cannot do that.

To Aomi, as long as those close to him, as long as their current situation or planned outcomes are better than in the original timeline, he's not treating them poorly no matter how he arranges the plot...

The bottom line isn't high, but it's there.

This bottom line prevents Aomi from abandoning the Ninja World.

Instead, he must quickly amass the emotions of the Ninja World upon him, not only to generate more Gold Coins but also to absorb more fortune, ultimately making Gaia Consciousness choose him...

"Hello, student, are you Clan Leader Fugaku's son?"

Aomi boldly walked up to Itachi, asking: "Excuse me... have you mastered the Three-Body Jutsu? The homework Jonin Asuma gave earlier is difficult for me..."

"If convenient, I'd like to see how you perform the Three-Body Jutsu?"

Upon hearing Aomi's words, Uchiha Itachi snapped out of his thoughts, a bit embarrassed, apologetically looking at Aomi: "Sorry, I was just thinking about something!"

"Student, you're also a ninja from the Uchiha Clan?"

Uchiha Itachi heard the word Fugaku in Aomi's words, his head ached more.

His father has been more erratic lately...

At first muttering about how the Mangekyo Dojutsu could go wrong, but in these past two days, he suddenly became ecstatic, his mental state among the Uchiha Clan, is one of the most outlandish.

Before going to school today, Uchiha Fugaku sternly emphasized to Uchiha Itachi: "Son, you are the child of destiny, study seriously, the future of the Ninja World and clan rests on your shoulders..."

The young Uchiha Itachi hadn't yet shaken off the image of Aomi slaughtering enemies, and now Fugaku confused him even more.
