Clearly, in history, Otsutsuki Kaguya was the mother of Otsutsuki Hagoromo, so why does this historical record portray Otsutsuki Hagoromo as Otsutsuki Kaguya's father!
Black Zetsu truly wants to kill someone!
What kind of behavior is this!
As the will of Kaguya, Black Zetsu truly wants to kill someone!
Black Zetsu cannot tolerate others disrespecting Otsutsuki Kaguya, especially knowing clearly the hopes Otsutsuki Kaguya had for her children…
However…
Otsutsuki Hagoromo is in defiance here!
If Otsutsuki Hagoromo sealed Kaguya under the guise of saving the Ninja World, then altering history and even swapping their identities is too extreme!
This piece of tree bark…
What kind of nonsense is recorded here!
Yet Black Zetsu cannot correct these because it's been erasing Otsutsuki Kaguya's records all along; it's merely the will of Uchiha Madara, and it cannot have any say over these ancient histories, as this would expose its weaknesses…
Does it have to tell Uchiha Madara that Otsutsuki Kaguya is not some worthless little daughter, but the almighty Goddess of Rabbit!
Endure!
It must hold back!
"Senju, Hyuga, Uchiha…"
Uchiha Madara muttered these names of the Ninja Clans considered powerful families during the Warring States Era, finding it quite interesting: "A thousand years ago, the ancestors of the three clans were all descendants of the Six Paths Sage Otsutsuki Hagoromo; a thousand years later, the remnants of the three clans are all in Konoha…"
After saying this, Uchiha Madara continued to look on, nodding slightly as he read the tree bark: "Hashirama, your clan's records indeed hold many secrets…"
Uchiha Madara did not notice Black Zetsu's increasingly sinister expression beside him, continuing to read the records with interest: "Even your clan's tree bark records Otsutsuki Kaguya devouring the Divine Tree Fruit…"
"..."
Black Zetsu's expression suddenly turned anxious again!
Uchiha Madara slowly summarized the historical records above: "Because the Six Paths Sage considered passing the leadership of the Ninja Sect to his eldest son Indra and second son Asura, this displeased the little daughter Kaguya, leading her to devour the Divine Tree Fruit; the furious Kaguya transformed into the Ten-tails after consuming the fruit and initiated the Infinite Tsukuyomi…"
"Hmm…"
"Interesting…"
Uchiha Madara smirked slightly, finally finding what he wanted: "It seems the Senju Clan's tree bark also recorded the story of the Infinite Tsukuyomi…"
"No wonder…"
"No wonder that kid Akihara Kagura knew about my plan…"
Uchiha Madara coldly shook his head, continuing to read below; his expression gradually returned to normal because although the historical records were odd, the content was indeed accurate.
"The Six Paths Sage reclaimed the Ten-tails, dividing its Chakra into the nine Tailed Beasts, and sealed his daughter Otsutsuki Kaguya…"
Indeed.
The nine Tailed Beasts are the Chakra split from the Ten-tails.
Uchiha Madara had known about this, but didn't realize the peculiarities behind the Ten-tails' division: "So a thousand years ago, the rampage of the Ten-tails was merely due to a struggle over the Ninja Sect's succession…"
"However…"
"There's no mention here about the effects of the Infinite Tsukuyomi?"
Uchiha Madara shook his head, continuing to look at the tree bark's records, as there was much more content to explore regarding these ancient secrets.
"After sealing the little daughter Kaguya…"
Uchiha Madara became even more interested in something else; he curiously looked at Senju Hashirama and asked: "I'm rather curious about who the successor of the Ninja Sect would be among our ancestors, Hashirama, who do you think it would be?"
"I'm not interested in that…"
Senju Hashirama was indifferent about it, never caring about things like power, just like his ancestor Asura.
Yet Uchiha Madara, much like his ancestor Indra, was very interested in potential competitive matters, even recalling once vying for the position of Hokage.
"Our ancestors once competed just like we did…"
Uchiha Madara shook his head, intending to read further, but instead saw not the successor to the Ninja Sect's position, but a record of the Six Paths Sage Otsutsuki Hagoromo sealing the little daughter Kaguya and then descending into darkness.
Black Zetsu was highly interested in the secrets of the tree bark, quickly moving beside Uchiha Madara, biting its heart with concealed hatred, yet continued reading the ensuing records beside Uchiha Madara, finding that the tree bark's information about Kaguya did not pose significant trouble.
Though the tree bark recorded a lot about Kaguya, it wasn't threatening to Black Zetsu's plans, nor did it mention Kaguya's resurrection…
This tree bark merely humiliated the historical Otsutsuki Kaguya.
But…
As long as it doesn't affect the plan, Black Zetsu deems it acceptable, willing to endure this temporary hatred and anger, so long as the Moon Eye Plan proceeds…
As long as Kaguya can be resurrected…
Everything in the future will be settled!
The crisis…
Seems to have been averted.
Black Zetsu's mood gradually relaxed.
"Otsutsuki Hagoromo sealed his own little daughter…"
"A part of this old man's will split into darkness…"
Uchiha Madara read these records on the tree bark, frowning slightly as if growing impatient, until he reached the last words of this segment.
"This part of the dark will…"
"Called Black Zetsu…"
Upon uttering Black Zetsu's name, Uchiha Madara's body suddenly stiffened, his gaze moving slowly towards Black Zetsu beside him.
Black Zetsu's gaze also shifted from the tree bark; it too seemed to have finished reading the segment, its head involuntarily moving to look at the expressionless and enigmatic Uchiha Madara.
