In recent years, Dan had come up with a new idea that had not been part of his previous calculations, but it seemed to him like a natural continuation of his plan .
almost as if it were the missing piece of the puzzle: using this terrifying biological weapon, which would serve him in many ways and add another layer of complexity and effectiveness to his enormous project.
The reason that prompted him to reconsider the role of this race was a discovery he had made. After the tremendous increase in his power, he had become capable of sensing every part of the galaxy in which his current planet was located, visiting its edges and learning about the planets and stars within it. He had even gone beyond that and discovered several galaxies near their own.
However, what was strange and surprising to Dan was that he found no trace whatsoever of the Otsutsuki in any of the regions he explored.
He had encountered numerous civilizations and living planets, some extremely advanced, some primitive, and others at various stages of development, but none of them came close to posing a threat like the Otsutsuki Clan, which represented an existential danger to humanity and which he knew would become their greatest enemy in the future.
Therefore, their complete absence from these regions was intriguing, forcing him to conclude that the Otsutsuki's original homeland might be located in galaxies much farther away, or perhaps even in entirely different galactic clusters, or maybe even in different dimensions. Who knew?
The universe was vast, and its secrets were countless. What Dan knew was still very little compared to what remained unknown, and this uncertainty both annoyed him and pushed him to take preemptive measures to protect humanity from any danger that might come from beyond its known boundaries.
Thus, a new idea came to his mind: to create a powerful defensive wall and a deterrent threat against the Otsutsuki by using the two terrifying races he possessed, building a fortress of flesh and blood around humanity capable of repelling any invasion.
This defensive wall would not merely be a passive shield, but also a sword pointed outward.
Therefore, he first redesigned two branches of these races, because he wanted versions that he could control completely, without any surprises. He made both branches carry a portion of his spiritual power and will, granting him absolute control over them.
He could guide them as he wished, direct their instincts, modify their behavior, and use them in whatever way he deemed appropriate.
This was extremely necessary, because he was certain that if he allowed these two terrifying races to evolve on their own, then instead of giving humanity a whetstone, he might end up creating a weapon that would carry out humanity's extinction.
This matter was not limited to these two races alone, but extended to every entity that would appear as part of his plan, beginning with the Cursed Kings of the new world.
All of them carried a portion of his spiritual power and will without realizing it, as if they were operating according to a hidden program whose existence they were unaware of, yet which they followed faithfully.
Dan would influence them indirectly, turning them into a whetstone for humanity rather than an instrument of extinction, by guiding their instincts, modifying their motivations, and planting the seeds of the choices he desired within their subconscious minds.
At the same time, he would use them as soldiers, directing a portion of their power toward the Otsutsuki.
However, this did not mean that these entities would be kind toward humans. On the contrary, Dan's only limitation was that his race must not go extinct and that humanity must continue to exist, even if it suffered, and even if it paid a heavy price for its survival.
Therefore, he would not interfere with the tragedies and disasters caused by these calamities, nor would he stop them or lessen their severity. On the contrary, that was precisely his goal.
These tragedies were what would sharpen humanity, make them advance, bring out the best within them, and reveal their abilities. They were what would force them to confront themselves, understand their limits, and surpass them.
This was the path of evolution Dan believed in: a path of pain, effort, and struggle, one that granted power only to those who deserved it.
