prelude for the ending

after a fiasco with Tobi, the meeting continued, however, the former noisy meeting turned into a serious and quiet one.

when Kaoru looks at everyone in the meeting room, they have a face as if they demand an explanation.

without wasting more time Kaoru immediately explained everything he knew since more information would increase everyone's chance of survival.

"First, that masked person was not the real Uchiha Madara." when they heard Kaoru's confirmation, they felt relief.

"I met him when I was on a mission searching for the fifth Hokage, he introduced himself as Tobi but, I'm a sensor type and I could proudly say that no one is better than me, and from my observation, he is an Uchiha and has something similar to Kakashi-senpai!"

Kakashi who suddenly becomes the center of the conversation becomes stunned, and when suddenly aware of what Kaoru means, Kakashi turns into a denial.

"it's impossible, he died right in front of my eyes, there is no way for him to survive, especially if he is really surviving, there is no reason for him to not go back to Konoha if everyone could be a traitor, then he will be the last one to betray Konoha!"

Kakashi is a genius and from Kaoru's small hint he can guess the real identity of Tobi, however, he can't accept the reality.

"Silence, Kakashi!" Tsunade could feel the identity of Tobi would bring her more headaches and Kakashi's reaction was the proof.

"If I'm not wrong, Tobi's true identity was Uchiha Obito, the former teammate of Kakashi-senpai and also the former pupil of the Fourth Hokage, he is also the one who gave his Sharingan to Kakashi-senpai"

now everyone understands why Kakashi acts like that, they don't dare to proclaim that they will not act like Kakashi when they know, their companion who they thought is dead turns out to be a traitor.

when Kaoru feels that everyone is ready, he tells the next reality.

"no matter whether Obito-senpai is really still alive or not, his strength is not enough to fight against the entire Shinobi world, and I think his backer is the real Uchiha Madara or someone on the same level as him, what do you think Granny?"

Kaoru doesn't have any problem sharing the information but, he makes sure to ask some people and let them solve the clues that he gave.

Tsunade on the other hand, who is being asked by Kaoru starts to remember whether the possibility of Uchiha Madara is still alive.

"Theoretically it's possible! especially since my granduncle can't find his corpse after his duel with my grandfather"

hearing that the menace from the old era has a possibility to be alive makes all of them gasp with shock.

"and since that Tobi or we could call him Obito, doesn't deny Kaoru's word about the real Madara, we could conclude that Uchiha Madara is still alive!"

Kaoru only smiles, even though they are wrong about Madara still alive, just making sure they put this alliance seriously was enough for Kaoru.

"Now, Kaoru, can you tell us about Kaguya the ancestor that you said earlier?"

after they learn the possibility that Madara is still alive, and also when Kaoru said Tobi was allowed to call his ancestor Kaguya, that means there is also a possibility that Kaguya is still alive.

"I found this theory in my research and when I lost on my way back from the mission-"

however, Kaoru never thought there was someone that would interrupt him.

"excuse me, haven't lost your war too much, are you sure you're fine?" the one who interrupted Kaoru was a short-haired girl from Iwa, she is the granddaughter of the current Tsuchikage, Kurotsuchi.

Kaoru felt down, if it was someone like Raikage who asked him, then he would happily answer and make fun of him, however when an innocent girl like Kurotsuchi who maybe doesn't know how the baby is made, asked him, Kaoru lost all his passion to making another joke for now.

"It's not important, what I found was the scripture about a very strong clan that existed in the past, they are called Otsutsuki, and Kaguya was one the members of that clan, let's forget about the clan for now and focus on Kaguya"

"her duty was to collect something called Shinju, and according to my research, it was a tree that bore something I called chakra fruit, and this fruit will give the eater something we called chakra"

"She has a descendant that we all know as the Sage of the Sixth Path, I believe all of you understand what my next words right?"

all the Kage and several aides nodded their heads and Kaoru had to acknowledge, that shinobi sometimes only relied on their jutsu or muscles like Raikage, however when needed, they also could use their brain properly.

"the most troublesome thing was, even the Sage of the Sixth Path can't kill his mother not because of filial piety but, because of her strength, the Sage only could seal her, and Kaguya is still alive until now"

when they knew that the strongest existence they knew couldn't even kill this Kaguya, she is only being sealed and still alive until now.

"Kid, do you know where this Kaguya is being sealed at?" Oonoki has another question because if this Kaguya is still alive, and Kaoru knew about it, there is a possibility he knew the location.

Kaoru only smiled then raised his hand and pointed to the sky, ignoring everyone's confused expression.

suddenly Tsunade has an enlightenment, and then slaps the table because she can't hold her temper.

"Kaoru! don't tell me you went to the moon?!" this time Tsunade knit her eyebrows and she was really angry since Kaoru really went to that kind of dangerous place.

"I already said before, I lost and then arrived at the moon, you're the one who didn't believe Granny!" Kaoru shrugged since it's the truth, when he explained to Tsunade that he went to the moon, she only laughed it off.

this time, she was aware that, Kaoru wanted to retaliate when she didn't take his word seriously.

she chose to apologize and ask Kaoru to finish all his information, especially about Madara and Kaguya.

at the end of the meeting, everyone at least had an estimate of how strong their opponents and they also chose Tsunade as the leader since she had both strength and wisdom, it was also because of the information provided by Kaoru.

now everyone go back to their own village to prepare for the war between Obito, Madara, and Kaguya against the entire shinobi world.
