"Come on, show yourself!" Yunlong raised his voice slightly, creating a ripple in the Pure Land.
"This is getting stale now."
Kaguya looks shocked. Her body trembled as she raised her eyes and gazed at the empty whiteness.
The ripple transformed into a wide crack, and two figures came out.
"Big Brother, I told you already..." A deep yet calm voice whispered.
"It's useless to spy on Mother and him without them noticing."
"We should have just greeted them normally.""Saying that is useless now, Hamura." Another voice replied helplessly.
Adorned in a white robe with six black magatamas around the collars, two men walked out and met Yunlong's gaze.
The first man is a tall, pale-skinned middle-aged man with deep wrinkles and a strong jawline. He has spiky, shoulder-length brown hair and a chin-length, braided lock in front of his left ear. He also sported a tapered-down goatee.
He had a pair of horn-like protrusions extending from either side of his forehead, Rinnegan, and a red Reinnegan-like marking in the center of his forehead.
The second person was a tall, pale-skinned middle-aged man with hairless brow ridges and waist-length white hair. His bangs were short and hung to the left side of his face, with a chin-length lock hanging from the right side.
He also had small, horn-like protrusions on his forehead and inherited the renowned pupilless white eyes, Byakugan, in both of his eyes from his mother.
Kaguya's eyes become moist, "Hagoromo, Hamura..."
Hagoromo descended from the air and bowed to Kaguya, "It's been a while, Mother."
"Mother." Hamura followed with a smile.
They thought Kaguya would be mad at them, but no. Mother's love isn't that weak.
"I miss you."
Kaguya hurriedly prevented them from kneeling and hugged them tightly, sobbing a little. The mighty and aloof Moon Goddess dropped her cold demeanor for this occasion.
'I understand her feelings.' Gu Yuena and Hatake Airi thought to themselves.
They are mothers.
Airi missed her son, Kakashi, wishing she could watch him grow until adulthood.
Meanwhile, Gu Yuena was sorrowful because her daughter had yet to be born into the world, but she already knew her demise. Knowing your one and only daughter will experience a terrible fate is not a good thing.
If not for Yunlong and the Ten Dragon Kings, Gu Yuena might have descended into madness and become an Evil Goddess.
Watching Kaguya this emotional, Yunlong couldn't help but smile weakly because she had been strong for too long. Even though her method of protecting the Shinobi World is questionable, her intention is pure.
She wanted to protect his family, which is her sons.
Yunlong understood Kaguya because he would do the same. Let people call him a monster, but all that matters is his family is safe and sound.
Sakumo's eyes widened, 'Did the Sage of Six Paths and his brother just call Yunlong's wife their mother.'
'Does that mean...' He glanced at Yunlong in disbelief.
'He really is a God.'
Although Sakumo has long since died, he wasn't completely cut off from the living world. Sometimes, there would be dead souls who would share a story about their lives.
One story in particular is about the legendary existence.
The Ancestor of Humanity, Sword God!
The legend said he married Kaguya in ancient times, causing the birth of the Sage of Six Paths and Father of Moon.
In Pure Land, this story is common knowledge.
They couldn't do anything about it anyway. They have passed away peacefully.
After a while, the sobbing reunion ended.
"Father." Hagoromo and Hamura kneeled before Yunlong.
Yunlong's mouth twitched, "Don't call me that. I'm not your father."
"Then, Daddy." Hagoromo shamelessly said.
"Do not call me Daddy! I'm not your DAD!" Yunlong choked Hagoromo and locked him to the ground.
"Ark!"
"Give up, give up, please spare my life!" Hagoromo's body tacked to the ground, twisted by Yunlong as he gasped for his life.
Hamura saw this and shook his head bitterly, "You should stop playing around, Big Brother. Yunlong-sama is not a person we could offend."
"Yunlong-sama, please spare my Big Brother."
"Hmph. I don't acknowledge Tenji as my past self." Yunlong released Hagoromo, and the Sage of Six Paths flopped on the ground with an aggrieved look.
"He might be me."
"But I'm not him."
"I understand." Hamura smiled calmly.
"Also, thank you for helping my descendants on the moon."
"They are worrying me after so many years."
Yunlong brushed the dust from his clothes, "It's alright. I want to help Sara anyway."
'Yunlong, what a good father.' Kaguya viewed this sight as father-son bonding, completely disregarding the fact Yunlong choke-holded her older son to the ground.
Love is blind.
After cleaning the backyard, everyone went to the Hatake Household and had tea time again. Of course, with Hagoromo and Hamura this time.
They are sitting on a tatami floor around a circular wooden table.
"Your tea is still as delicious as I remembered, Airi-san." Hagoromo praised the housewife.
"Being praised by the Sage of Six Paths is an honor." Airi giggled, sitting beside her husband.
Hamura sipped his tea and stared at Yunlong and Kaguya, finding their aura well-matched for each other. They knew the current Kaguya was different from their once demonic mother.
'After gaining a new vessel, she is more lovely.' Hamura thought calmly.
The brothers need to get used to Kaguya's new face and bearing, but it is easier than fighting her.
'There is also this woman.' Hamura added, gazing at Gu Yuena.
Gu Yuena snacked on fried veggies Airi made and said, "Do you have something to say to me?"
"N-No." Hamura nervously coughed.
What a terrifying woman.
Even in the Pure Land, Hamura could feel a pulsating dragon-like aura from Gu Yuena's body, which was way more powerful than his mother at her peak.
He couldn't imagine how strong she actually was.
Yunlong tapped his finger on the table, "Let's talk about more important things now."
"Sakumo-san, Airi-san."
"You're willing to be my subordinate, right?"
Sakumo and Airi glanced at each other before nodding, "Yes, Yunlong-sama."
"Please take care of us."
Their looks of determination stunned Hagoromo and Hamura.
"T-This is..."
"Are you really going to revive them, Yunlong-sama?" Hamura stared at Yunlong in awe.
It's not that the brothers couldn't revive the dead.
The act is simply taboo by the Universal Laws of the Shinobi World.
Reanimation Jutsu itself has already broken the balance between the life and death realm.
Reviving people from the Pure Land would bring more imbalance to the table, having height probably destroying the world, too.
"What's the matter?" Yunlong frowned at them.
"I can't do it?"
Hagoromo sighed heavily, "Yes, you can't."
"I know you want to revive them to fight the Otsutsuki Clan, but the law of this universe won't allow you..."
"It's not that easy."
Hamura nodded and added, "Yunlong-sama. Even though I didn't doubt you can revive people from the dead, the Shinobi World's laws are fragile due to the huge influx in Impure and Pure Land fifteen years ago."
"The Fourth Shinobi World War killed too many people at once, and we, observers and managers of both realms, couldn't handle the traffic."
"Some people that shouldn't die in the war. Pass away in the process."
"Some people that should die in the war. Live longer than they should be."
"At some point, the World of Living would crack... Allowing those from the Otsutsuki Clan to invade faster, even feeding on the dead soul to increase their strength."
Kaguya narrowed her eyes, "Is it that bad? According to my calculations, we shouldn't have this problem, right?"
"Normally, yes," Hagoromo answered this time.
"But..." He stared at Yunlong complexly.
"Yunlong broke the rules fifteen years ago. His existence caused a twist in space and time."
"Even though Hamura and I have fixed it, the damage has been done."
Yunlong facepalmed, "So it's my fault."
"Action does have consequences, huh?"
[You can't revive them from the dead, yes] The system gave Yunlong a clue.
[But you can use another method, Host]
Yunlong's eyes lit up.
He chuckled, "Hehe."
"Oh, no. What evil thing are you thinking right now?" Gu Yuena knew her mate was up to something devious with that chuckle.
Yunlong brushed his hair and stared at Hagoromo, "I can't revive them, right."
"Yes..." Hagoromo answered weakly.
"But who said I can't reincarnate them?" Yunlong grinned at the Sage of Six Paths.
"Don't tell me, you!" Hagoromo stood up in shock.
"Hehehe. Yes, I am~!"
