Chapter 261 : ŌTsutsuki’S Ambition
"This man is indeed a threat," muttered Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, exhaling slowly.
No—perhaps he should now be referred to by his Earth-given identity.
Not Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, but Jigen.
Yet, the essence of an Ōtsutsuki does not change.
Isshiki’s mind drifted back to the moment he and Kaguya first descended upon Earth thousands of years ago.
To them, humanity was nothing but ants beneath their feet. And who mourns ants?
Trample them. Be done with them. No remorse. No empathy.
The planet was a fertile ground—ideal for nurturing a Divine Tree.
But then, betrayal struck. Kaguya, his partner in mission, turned traitor.
Originally, Kaguya’s duty was to act as the sacrifice to the Divine Tree, ensuring a God Tree fruit of immense power.
Instead, she defied the clan’s directive.
Not only did she refuse the sacrifice—she attacked Isshiki.
