Naruto: From Shikotsumyaku to Otsutsuki

[Evolutionary Equation: Shikotsumyaku + Byakugan = Pureblood Otsutsuki]

[Evolution complete in 5 minutes]

In the center of the colossal water prison formed by the massive burst of water, Kaguya Kazama sensed the information on the obelisk in her mind and breathed a sigh of relief.

Only 5 minutes remain until the evolution is complete.

He is currently protected by Kisame's Water Release technique, and with Kisame's terrifying amount of chakra, he can easily hold out for another 5 minutes.

It's just holding your breath underwater; ninjas possess incredible physical abilities and can easily last for half an hour.

Besides, this is Kisame Hoshigaki's home turf.

With Uchiha Shisui's chakra reserves and fire-style ninjutsu, it would be utterly impossible for him to evaporate seawater of this scale.

If he dares to enter the water prison, unless he activates Susanoo, he will only be able to enter vertically and leave horizontally.

Underwater, Kaguya Kazama gave a thumbs-up to the shark face in front of her.

Kisame Hoshigaki's gills opened and closed, indicating he was breathing underwater. He gurgled out a series of bubbles and said, "Stay underwater, and I'll summon sharks to protect you. Another one playing with insects has come outside; I'll go test it out."

As he spoke, he quickly formed hand seals.

"Spirit Summoning Technique: Thousand-Eating Shark"

bang bang bang....

As the water rippled, countless sharks were summoned by the summoning technique. About a hundred of them gathered near Kaguya Kazama, while the rest swam away quickly.

The sharks were gulping down seawater, their sharp, white teeth still stained with the flesh and blood of their prey, their eyes gleaming with bloodlust.

"Thousand-Eating Shark, tear them to pieces."

Kisame Hoshigaki manipulated the seawater to surge up, leading his school of fish in a proactive attack.

Soon, outside the water prison, various ninjutsu lights shone.

Water Release, Fire Release, Taijutsu, Genjutsu, and Insect Techniques—all three are powerful Jonin, each with their own signature techniques.

Kisame Hoshigaki, with his massive chakra reserves and the advantage of the terrain, fought two opponents single-handedly, displaying his formidable prowess.

Kaguya Kazama didn't pay much attention to the battle. As long as Uchiha Shisui didn't activate Susanoo and didn't use Kotoamatsukami, even with Aburame Ryuma's help, the chances of defeating Kisame were slim.

He simply sat cross-legged at the bottom of the water, carefully sensing the evolution and transformation of his body.

Now, he has become even shorter, shrinking to about 1.3 meters tall, and his skin has become more tender, as if he has become young again.

The deep green color of his right eye had completely disappeared, turning into a white eye, and his white hair had grown to shoulder length.

Deeper within the flesh and blood, muscles, bones, meridians, and even the brain have undergone a reorganization and transformation, with density, resistance, endurance, and tissue activity all receiving an epic enhancement. The amount of chakra automatically extracted with each breath is astonishing.

He transformed into a high-level being that looked like a human, but was completely unrelated to ordinary humans.

My head is a little itchy.

He suddenly felt bone growth on the top of his head, his scalp being pushed up by the bone, and a tingling, itchy sensation swept over him.

"Is it going to grow horns?" Kaguya Kazama wondered expectantly.

The most distinctive feature of the Otsutsuki clan is that they have horns on their heads.

Those with Byakugan may belong to the Hyuga clan, but those with horns on their heads must possess the bloodline of the Otsutsuki.

If it has Byakugan and horns on its head, there's no doubt that it's a pure-blooded Otsutsuki.

Kinkaku and Ginkaku of Kumogakure are examples of people whose bloodlines reverted to their ancestral form, exhibiting characteristics of the Otsutsuki clan. They were even able to defy fate by devouring the flesh and blood of the Nine-Tails and obtaining its chakra.

Even with such abilities despite being a fragment of the Otsutsuki bloodline, Kaguya Kazama looked forward to her complete transformation even more.

"My Otsutsuki bloodline is modeled after Kaguya-hime, and I've already evolved All-Killing Ash Bones. Will I gain her other abilities after this ends?"

"Amenominaka, Yomotsu Hirasaka, Yagami Kujou, Usagi Hair Needle, Truth-Seeking Balls—if I could awaken just one of them, I would have combat power surpassing Kage level." Kaguya Kazama imagined the scene of him slaughtering everyone after obtaining Kaguya-hime's various abilities.

As time went by, the itching on her scalp became more and more pronounced. Kaguya Kazama could even sense the bone on both sides of her frontal bone growing, eventually breaking through the skin's limitations.

He raised his hands and gently touched his newly grown bony horns.

It was a pair of small, slightly curved horns that grew from the sides of the forehead. They were pale white with a bony texture and felt cool to the touch.

It is only about two inches long, a spirally twisted triangle, hidden in the white hair, and can not be seen at all unless you look closely.

At the same time, Kaguya Kazama found her body becoming lighter, as if she had overcome the planet's gravity and was spontaneously floating.

"The Otsutsuki clan's ability to fly?" Kaguya Kazama's eyes lit up.

Flight is also a standard ability for pure-blooded Otsutsuki. Whether it's Kaguya, Momoshiki, Kinshiki, Isshiki, or Urashiki, all of these Otsutsuki who have appeared can fly.

In the ninja world, there are very few people who can fly.

The ability to fly means high maneuverability, which greatly assists in reconnaissance and combat.

"I'll give it a try." Kaguya Kazama had a sudden thought, and she soared into the sky.

He moved swiftly through the water like a fish, a layer of chakra spontaneously adhering to his entire body, acting as a protective membrane to shield him from the seawater.

He subconsciously took a breath, and suddenly, a stream of oxygen with a fishy smell rushed into his nasal cavity without any obstruction.

Unbeknownst to him, he not only gained the ability to fly, but also the skill to survive underwater.

This highly adaptable ability led him to a possibility: "The Otsutsuki clan can travel between stars, so does that mean that my current body can not only survive underwater, but also withstand the high radiation, low temperature, and oxygen-free environment of space? With this terrifying body, plus the ability to fly and space-time ninjutsu, it's no wonder they can wander around in space and plant trees at will."

Kaguya Kazama was immersed in the joy of gaining powerful abilities and subconsciously glanced at the time on the obelisk.

[Evolution complete in 10 seconds]

"Very good, everything is going smoothly. I'm looking forward to Princess Kaguya's other abilities."

Kaguya Kazama counted down the seconds, and as time passed, he could feel his final transformation was about to begin.

3 seconds, 2 seconds, 1 second...

Time resets to zero.

Congratulations, Evolver! You have completed an evolution that transcends the level of life.

At the same time, Kaguya Kazama's heart suddenly trembled violently.

Boom!

His chest resounded with a great roar, and a visible energy wave surged outwards, like the first thunder of spring, announcing his birth to the world.

The first being in the history of the ninja world to evolve from a human into an Otsutsuki has officially been born.

Immediately afterwards, the newly formed heart unleashed a terrifying suction force, instantly drawing away all of his chakra.

The highly condensed chakra coalesced on the surface of the heart to form a small, diamond-shaped black dot, like an energy core, from which chakra emerged and spread, restoring and filling the entire body.

A powerful sense of strength swept over every inch of muscle.

Kaguya Kazama could sense the diamond-shaped black dot on her heart; it was dark, powerful, and mysterious, seemingly containing countless pieces of information.

Thump...thump...thump....

With each heartbeat, the rhombus-shaped black dot shone brightly, releasing a stream of knowledge and heritage deeply ingrained in the bloodline of the Otsutsuki clan.

The Seed of the Wedge

A mysterious piece of knowledge revealed to Kaguya Kazama that he understood what the diamond-shaped black dot was.

At the same time, the Evolutionary Obelisk began to refresh with dense information.
