"What the fuck did I just do?!"
As Tsunade rolled around on her bed, she grimaced, holding her head as she moved around. She wasn't sure why she did this, but when she saw how handsome he was and thought about how he would even impregnate an older woman, who could even become his mother, it led her to do something that she should do!
Yet, even if she regretted it, even now, she could remember him vividly, his face, his reaction, and also the kiss they shared.
When she thought of all of that, her body became hotter, as her two pointy parts on her chest became so noticeable that it was impossible to ignore.
She thought that such a vulgar thing could only be done when two people were married, yet here she was, giving herself to him like a slut.
However, when she thought of his reaction, who appeared so helpless despite being so strong after she took his lips, it gave her a shiver of excitement.
On the other hand, Shinra, who was kissed by Tsunade, felt a little helpless, but he didn't really mind since he had to say that she was attractive, but definitely, if he chose someone as a wife, this woman was out of the question.
Gambling.
While it might seem like something small, it was also the cause of many families to break up.
In his previous life, he had seen many people hooked on gambling who had lost everything, including what their parents had possessed, just because of a gamble.
It was as frightening as a drug, he thought.
Or rather, was the drug better?
At least the cost was still within tolerance, and—
'No! No! No!'
Whether it was gambling or drugs, all of them were dangerous, but what was even more dangerous was infatuation, a feeling where for the one that they obsessed over, they would give their everything, including the wealth of all of their families, and also their life.
"Well, it isn't good to be too much."
Everything was within consideration, but enough of that, as he decided to visit the Pure Land.
The land after death is the place where all souls reside after their death.
This was the place where the Sage of the Six Paths, Hagoromo Ootsuki, lived, but Shinra knew that Hagoromo wasn't the one who created it. Instead, this place should have existed before the age of a ninja, or when people started to learn chakra to strengthen themselves.
This was also the original home of the Shinigami, the god of death.
Still, when Shinra came to this place, Shinigami appeared docile, like a servant on the side, welcoming him with a smile.
"...stop showing such a creepy smile."
"...." Shinigami.
If Shinigami were a cute girl or a beautiful woman, then it would be fine, but its face was like a demonic figure, which made him helpless.
"Did that ninja god steal your place?"
Shinigami honestly nodded when it heard Shinra's words.
Hagoromo could even seal his own mother, so how could he lose to a mere Shinigami?
"Can you tell me more about the world before Hagoromo appeared?"
As that question fell, Shinigami nodded and told Shinra about the world before the emergence of Ninshu, the prototype of a ninja, or the way that everyone believed.
The origin of this world was simple since it was like any ancient kingdom with many Lords that controlled a certain area, as many of them often waged wars to get more land, wealth, or something else.
As for the Shinigami, it also existed here, living on this planet from the beginning, and had been staying on the Pure Land to manage the souls of those who had passed away.
In other words, this place wasn't created by Kaguya or her two ungrateful sons.
Also, besides Shinigami, there were many gods in this world, such as a Mountain God, a Sea God, and many supernatural creatures that were worshipped by mortals, such as the toad.
Nevertheless, everyone maintained their status quo as no one was powerful enough to overwhelm the others.
However, when Kaguya appeared, everything changed since she had become the strongest, and the world was more or less under her control, especially when she created the moon. Naturally, many gods on the land were angry, but they were all killed.
Shinigami, who had seen all of that, didn't do anything since it lived on the Pure Land, so whatever happened in the world, it had nothing to do with it, but the might of Kaguya made it fear, so it just quietly did its job, collecting the souls and keeping them on the Pure Land. Still, it didn't expect that Kaguya would be betrayed by her two sons, and sealed, and by then, peace came into the world.
Well, not really.
The peace didn't happen; instead, it had become much worse due to the existence of a ninja that was brought by Ootsuki Hagoromo.
While Homura moved to the moon, where he and his family ignored what happened to the earth, Hagoromo still lived on the earth, and naturally, his family needed to eat, and to do that, they used their skills as a ninja to make money.
What did they do?
In the beginning, it was just to protect people from bandits or many others, but slowly and surely, this profession changed fully and turned a ninja into a weapon for those lords or those who were in a position to take down their enemies or protect their interests.
Naturally, as a ninja was so powerful, their battle often caused huge damage, and many people died.
Many might say that the one who was hurt the most by everything was the ninja, but Shinra felt that it was those civilians, commoners, or those at the bottom, who could do nothing to protect themselves, and just hoped for mercy from the strong.
Nevertheless, by then, it had become a never-ending war, and a ninja was treated as a weapon, especially after Hagoromo died.
After all, unlike his mother, Hagoromo was a half-Ootsuki, so he aged and couldn't become an immortal.
However, even ninjutsu was a wonderful thing, so even if Hagoromo died, he created a technique where he could live on the Pure Land, and as he was there, he naturally could get the souls of his two sons.
If he passed away due to old age, then wasn't it normal for his two sons to pass away, too?
Still, as he saw how chaotic the world was, he always sent his two sons to reincarnate into a new identity, as if his two sons were the only way that could change everything.
Unfortunately, instead of peace, what his two sons did was mess around like their father, who caused even more chaotic, cruel, and crazy war, especially with the emergence of the one village and one country system by Senju Hashirama.
When this system was created, it was fine when Hashirama lived, as no one dared to provoke him, but as he died, the war had reached a level that one couldn't predict, and it had become something that everyone was afraid of.
Yet, there were no solutions for this except for Hagoromo sending his two sons again and again, reincarnating them, letting them become heroes, again and again, even though they were the ones who left the mess.
As the Shinigami finished its story, Shinra let out a helpless sigh, thinking that all the worlds were the same.
