Chapter 658 Talking about Love at Night

Kaguya was overjoyed to hear that Giger was going to deal with Isshiki. If there was anyone in the Otsutsuki clan she feared the most, it would definitely be Isshiki.

According to the rules of the Otsutsuki clan, members who go out to plant trees are usually in pairs, and the relationship between the two is clearly hierarchical. The superior can enjoy the chakra fruit to their heart's content, while the subordinate, the so-called guardian, is a consumable, serving as nourishment for the Ten-Tails.

Kaguya was in that role back then, becoming nourishment for the Ten-Tails, and eventually turning into a chakra fruit to be devoured by Isshiki. To put it more cruelly, not even a trace of her remained, since pure Otsutsuki clan members don't excrete waste.

Kaguya wasn't like Kinshiki, a loyal protector to Momoshiki. From the beginning, she was unwilling to accept her predetermined fate. In her view, since the outcome was the same whether she resisted or not, she might as well resist.

And so she succeeded, even succeeded with extraordinary ease. Isshiki didn't even have time to resist before being devoured by the Ten-Tails. Moreover, because the life energy of the planet they found was incredibly abundant, and Isshiki was a "top-quality material" from the Otsutsuki clan, the chakra fruit that the Ten-Tails eventually produced was of the highest quality. Perhaps this is the charm of going all in.

Kaguya gained power she never dared to dream of before after eating the Chakra Fruit. However, the more she gained power, the more uneasy she became, because she knew that she had broken the rules of the Otsutsuki clan and that she would definitely be punished by the Otsutsuki clan in the future.

Even if the Chakra Fruit was of the highest quality, she could never be a match for the entire Otsutsuki clan. Having finally escaped death and gained immense power, she was naturally not going to just wait to die.

All the seemingly absurd things she did were to resist the inevitable arrival of the Otsutsuki clan. However, she did not expect that Otsutsuki Isshiki was not dead and even possessed another Ten-Tails.

When she received this news from Giger, she felt as if her body had fallen into an ice cellar.

Isshiki was an elite member of the Otsutsuki clan back then, and being chosen as Isshiki's guardian was considered an honor at the time. However, for Kaguya, Isshiki was an inescapable shadow looming over her.

If she had known that Isshiki was still alive, she wouldn't have had time to think about the future of the Otsutsuki clan; she would have focused all her energy on eliminating Isshiki.

However, she has suffered a severe loss of power, and even though her strength has stagnated for thousands of years, she is still not someone she can deal with.

If Giger hadn't mentioned that he was going to deal with Isshiki, Kaguya would have already given up on returning to the ninja world to reclaim her power and would have immediately begun her interstellar escape.

So after learning of Giger's purpose, Kaguya only thought for a moment before responding.

"Help me destroy Ichishiki, and the Chakra Fruit will be yours."

Giger smiled slightly and said,

“No problem, I also want to see what kind of fruit it will bear if the Ten-Tails eats a whole Otsutsuki Isshiki.”

Lily floated over, and upon hearing Giggs mention the fruit, she asked with some curiosity,

"What exactly is this Chakra Fruit you're talking about? Is it a Devil Fruit from this world?"

"That's one way to understand it, but the Chakra Fruit's power boost is more pure, and it's not something anyone can eat. An ordinary person would probably just explode if they ate it."

"It exploded? Like someone who ate two Devil Fruits?"

Giger shook his head, indicating that he had never seen what it looked like when someone who had eaten two Devil Fruits exploded, but it was certain that they couldn't withstand it.

As Kaguya listened to Giger and Lily's conversation, a question also arose in her mind: what is a Devil Fruit?

However, her relationship with Giger was not like Lily's, so she had to suppress her curiosity and obediently listen from the side.

Giggs's gaze swept over Lily and Kaguya, then he spoke to Lily.

"So what did you talk about when you were together? How did you two get along? You two seemed to be getting along quite well when you came out earlier."

Lily and Kaguya exchanged a glance, and finally Lily spoke first.

"Actually, things weren't so harmonious at first. We even had a fight when we first met."

"Who's winning?"

"Of course it is me."

At this point, Lily proudly raised her chin, while Kaguya, standing beside her, couldn't help but retort,

"My power is not complete..."

"Hmph, I wasn't in much better shape back then either, it's all that bastard's fault..."

Lily glanced at Gig, who chuckled and reached out to touch Lily's long hair that was draped behind her back.

"Yes, yes, it's my fault, it's my fault~"

In the past, Lily would have been furious to hear Giger's coaxing tone, but now she seemed to enjoy it, her eyes unconsciously narrowing into crescent shapes.

Kaguya watched Giger and Lily flirting and blurted out something without thinking.

Do you have children? If not, have you considered having one?

"......"

Giger and Lily were both rendered speechless by Kaguya's sudden question, but Kaguya seemed to have been provoked by something and continued to press for an answer.

"If a child is conceived through a union between both parents, will that child never harm their parents?"

"Puch!"

Before Giger could react, Lily burst out laughing.

Giger's face immediately darkened, Lily quickly raised her hand to cover her mouth, and Kaguya looked at the two of them with a confused expression, saying...

"Lily, what are you laughing at? Is that question really that funny?"

Lily coughed lightly a few times and pointed at Giger.

"Kaguya, you'd better not ask, or you might anger him."

Giggs scoffed, then spoke in a serious tone,

"This kind of thing is not only about how your child was born, but also how you raised him. I believe that a child who grows up in the love of his parents, unless he has a congenital mental defect, would never harm his parents even if they were to die, even if his parents were great villains who wanted to destroy the world."

This last sentence was clearly meant for Kaguya to hear, and Kaguya nodded thoughtfully, murmuring something.

"Love? We are born in love, and we grow up in love..."

Hearing Kaguya repeatedly proclaim her love, Giger, in a moment of impulsiveness, blurted out,

"This kind of love requires a process of action; your method of asexual reproduction is unscientific."
