395. Kaguya Freed
Alexander saw the color of the Chakra fruit change from dark to light and soft colors. Now it really looked like a ripe peach ready to be eaten.
His entering his pocket dimension automatically purified the fruit. But a quality check was necessary so he licked it to feel its taste. ~Woah, it does taste like peach.~
But he didn't eat it. He cut it open and checked the energy it produces. He could feel that earlier it was not pleasant but now it felt pure.
~Wait, this is an edible fruit. Can I replicate it with the Hufflepuff pot I made to replicate food?~ he thought.
To try it out, he went to the food production center that usually runs 24 hours every day. It was important for feeding the population of Phixheim and some orphanages outside.
He went and took a Hufflepuff pot and put the peach in it. It took a few minutes but eventually, he saw progress.
It was indeed being replicated but at a very slow pace. It would probably take hours for it to complete.
~Well, they did say this fruit takes a thousand years to grow.~
He didn't have any plans for the Chakra fruit but if they could make him stronger, he was going to eat as many as he could. So, after getting one extra Chakra fruit, he appointed a Seraph to produce 5 thousand more.
He came out of Phixheim to Dobby and others. They had finished watching the memory and looked pretty depressed.
Ragnarok sternly looked at Alexander, "I so wanna kill those Otsutsuki bastards"
"Me too, buddy. We will eventually go there. But now, it's time to wake her up. Also, I was right. It was chakra fruit that had changed her mind. But no worries now." He assured them.
He again went inside the Ten tails' husk and walked to the still asleep little Kaguya. He first sent the power of the Chakra fruit back to her. Her third eye again appeared on her forehead. It was also sleeping.
"Wake up little one," he lightly called her.
"Hmmm?" She tilted her head and slowly got up.
She rubbed her eyes and looked up. "Who are you?"
Alexander's eye twitched. Kaguya looked like a small girl but her voice was of old Kaguya. Though he was sure if he brought her out she would turn back to her original older body.
It took her a second to realize that her personal space was breached. She immediately got up and also turned to her normal body, the old Kaguya, who also didn't look very old.
"Calm down, Kaguya. I came here to get you out of this place. But, you have to promise me to be a good girl." He politely said.
But she got angry. "Who are you to order me like that?"
"We're going to have to work on that anger issue. Okay, can you tell me why you tried to kill Hagoromo and Hamura?" He bluntly asked to see how she behaves to judge if she was just manipulated by the Chakra fruit or if she was originally like this. Though he was hoping she was good.
"Because they wanted to use my powers and conspire against me..." Suddenly there was a pause like some realization hit her.
"OH NO! I hit my kids. Why would I do that? I loved them so much," she loudly exclaimed.
~She doesn't seem cynical.~ Alexander thought.
"Well, a thousand years have passed outside. Your sons grew older and spread ninshu around the world. They grew old and withered away with time. Your son Hagoromo stayed on earth and Hamura stayed on the moon to look after this seal.
"You do remember why they sealed you right?" He asked.
She nodded, "I cast the Infinite Tsukuyomi and enslaved the world. But why would I do this? I wanted peace. I loved this planet."
"Well, the fruit you ate, the Chakra fruit, was the reason. Did you really expect a fruit that grows by sucking the life of the planet and its people would give you power without any drawbacks? The fruit probably had a psychological effect on you." He explained to her.
She immediately collapsed to the ground. "I-I... all I ever wanted to do was to simply live in peace. But why do these things keep on happening."
"Your sons, they are waiting for you outside. Their bodies may have died, their souls are still lingering as chakra projection." He revealed and also checked her sins.
||Kaguya Otsutsuki - Category 3
Murder - 10
Attempted Murder - 1,546,875(Still Alive)
Sin Percentage - 53%||
~What? Attempted murder?~ Alexander confusedly thought.
He looked at Kaguya, who was also looking at him with hopeful eyes that he would take her out of the seal.
"Don't you have questions?" He asked.
"Will you answer?" She asked back.
"A fair question. I will answer your doubts. Fire them up." He allowed her.
She asked the first obvious question, "Who are you? How did you enter this seal and what are those eyes?"
"Woah, go slow, girl. Well, for starters, my name is Alexander Maxim Universe. You can say I am a god. I travel to different worlds and help them. Currently, I am ruling this ninja world and making it better. And I have named my eyes God's eye." He explained to her.
She nodded, "So you are like me? From another planet?"
"Yeah, something like that. I'm also, thousands of years old so heads up, don't be offended if I treat you like a child sometimes. Now, let's go out." He explained.
"WAIT!" She stopped him.
"What happened?" He asked.
"There are still so many people stuck inside here as cocoons. We should release them. They are all alive." She revealed.
"Oh, so it was them I sensed. They must be the victims of your Infinite Tsukuyomi. But what will we tell them? I mean, I'm sure there will be whole families stuck in there. They will see the changed words outside and be confused." He asked.
"But we have to get them out," she insisted.
"I never said no. Okay, I'll just plant memories of the modern world into their heads. That would help them." He decided.
He went to all the cocoons. But he found out that most of them had been transformed a little. Their facial features had gone missing.
He took out the Time-Cloth gadget. Used magic to enlarge it and put it on everyone. He waited for a while for it to restore and as expected the people looked like their original self.
He quickly severed their connection with the Ten Tail husk and the cocoon.
...
Outside, Dobby and Ragnarok had gone bored so they were playing chess.
"Ah, he's taking too much time, what if he's doing something not family-friendly in there?" Ragnarok asked, making Hagoromo and Hamura uncomfortable.
Dobby scoffed at the idea, "Ah, I had forgotten you were in heat. Boss isn't like that. He'd probably die than be with anyone except Olivia."
"He's an ultra Simp." Ragnarok laughed.
"WHO'S THE SIMP?" Alexander's voice came from behind him.
"Ahaha... I was worried about you, Alex. Ah, she must be Kaguya. Pleased to make your acquaintance." Ragnarok showed a total change of attitude.
Kaguya was less interested in the humanoid dragon and noticed the projection of her sons. "Hago and Hamu?"
She ran to them and tried to hug them. But she fell to the other side face first. Alexander facepalmed himself and helped her get up.
"They are just projections. They are intangible." He reminded her.
Tears welled up in her eyes, "Forgive me, my children. I wasn't a good mother to you."
Hagoromo and Hamura also looked very emotional and sat close to her. Although they had fought her in their life, they still remembered all the love she showered on them when they were small.
"It was not your fault, mother. You ate the fruit with good intentions. What happened later was not something anyone could have predicted." Hagoromo consoled her.
Alexander let them have their mother-son reunion while he dealt with the Husk. He first summoned all the people out. At the same time, he implanted memories in them without any intrusion into their privacy. He taught them about how to live in modern society and other values of modern society.
They all still looked clueless...and naked. He immediately conjured clothes on their bodies.
