Naruto: Starting with the Two Kamui

Yu originally wanted to ask what caused him to miss the battle against the Momoshiki-Kinji duo a year later, but then he thought that the toad's prophecy was absolute. Since the prophecy had been revealed, it meant that it was an uncontrollable force. Even if he knew, the result of missing would be difficult to change.

Although I'm very unwilling, not wasting this once-every-six-months divination opportunity is the right choice!

Yu said, "Please divine the exact time and place of the most recent Ōtsutsuki member's descent to Earth!"

The White Snake Immortal chuckled and pulled out a crystal ball: "Hmph, what an impatient child. No matter how you look at it, it can't be too early... Hmm!?"

Suddenly, she froze: "This...this isn't right. Has something gone wrong because I haven't done divination in so long? This is weird, really weird!"

"what happened?"

"The divination indicates that the exact time of the Otsutsuki's descent is tonight, right on the southwestern border of your Hidden Ninja Country..."

"Immortal, farewell!" Yu rose and disappeared into the vortex of spacetime.

In the dead of night, on the southwestern border of the Dark Ninja Kingdom, a black portal appeared...

The blood-covered man fell from the pile and crashed to the ground: "Damn it... those bastards! From this day forward, I, Otsutsuki Hashiki, will never forgive and forget you!!!"

After saying this, the man fainted.

Yu walked up to him and looked down at him coldly.

A broken horn, a bleeding eye, a dying person...

After a moment of contemplation, Yu's gaze became intriguing: "Otsutsuki, Yu-shiki, irreconcilable enemies... Could it be..."

Chapter 563 The Secret of the Ancestor, the Clouds Part to Reveal the Sun!

Yu revived the dying Yu Shiki, then created a torture chamber in the space-time continuum and used the sealing chains of the heretical path to hang Yu Shiki up.

Since Yu Shi is blind in both eyes, it is impossible to cast illusions on him. Yu decides to use torture to get the information he wants to know.

Yu, suspended in mid-air with the Yin-Yang Six Paths Staff resting on his lap, looked at the awakened Yu Shiki and said, "You're awake, Otsutsuki Yu Shiki, the eighty-seventh ranked master of the main clan. You seem to possess the power of the Byakugan and Rinnegan, but you've lost your sight. You escaped using Izanagi, right? But before you could use it, you had already suffered a fatal injury..."

Clang! Yu struggled violently, the outer chains rattling loudly: "What kind of bastard are you? How do you know everything about me?!"

"Get your stance straight. I'm the one with the right to ask questions!" Yu coldly raised two fingers.

The chains of the heretics tightened!

"Ugh! Damn it... This is the Chains of the Outer Path! This bastard possesses the power of the Rinnegan and the Ten-Tails! His chakra is almost on par with mine before!!"

Yu Shi said, "No matter who you are, just answer one question: are you a member of the Otsutsuki clan? If you don't answer this question, I will die rather than utter a single word!"

Yu lowered his hand and said, "I am not a member of the Otsutsuki clan..."

Yu Shiki's words were intriguing: "Oh~ Is there really someone like you outside of Takamagahara? That's quite a surprise..."

Yu said, "Don't do anything foolish again. You should know that I can instantly read all the information in your mind using the power of the Human Path of the Rinnegan. But I've determined that you still have value to me. If you break that, don't blame me for being impolite, Yu-style..."

"Hmph hmph hmph." Yu Shi stopped struggling and laughed, "Alright then, I'm quite interested to see what I can get out of you..."

Yu asked, "How did you end up in such a state..."

Yu Shi instantly became enraged: "I want to know too!!! I was on a remote planet taking care of the Divine Tree sapling, and I hadn't left for even half a step when those bastards attacked, claiming that I had attacked the Nine Nether Lands under Long Shi's jurisdiction and liberated the rebellious Subi Chi'er of a clan. Am I out of my mind?? Why would I go after a monster like Long Shi??"

Heh, so that's how it is...

Yu chuckled inwardly, but asked calmly, "Where is the Songstress Po Jun?"

Yu Shi's expression changed: "You, you even know my eldest sister's nickname!? Are you really not from the same family!?"

Yu said coldly, "I don't want to emphasize this again! Answer my question!"

After a moment of contemplation, Yu Shi said, "When that bastard arrived, Sister Wan Sheng was out on patrol..."

Yu raised an eyebrow: "Wan Sheng?"

Yu Shi said, "Big Sister, the name of the Po Jun Geisha is Otsutsuki Wansheng. She is ranked seventy-fifth in the main family and is my superior. If she were here, those bastards would never have been able to succeed...!"

"What about the sapling of the divine tree...?"

"I took it with me."

"!" Yu was startled: "Where is it?!"

"Oh? Interested in that stuff? I advise you not to even think about it. If you get it, they'll find you, and you'll be finished!"

"You don't need to worry about that. Just tell me the whereabouts of the divine tree sapling!"

Just kidding, isn't the Divine Tree sapling the Ten-Tails?

After a moment of silence, Yu Shi said, "I placed it in another dimension, but now that my Rinnegan is destroyed, I can't go there..."

Tell me the spatial coordinates!

"Hey, are you serious? Even if you have the Rinnegan, it doesn't mean you can use the power of space-time... Wait, this space! It seems different from before. Could it be that your Rinnegan possesses the power of space-time? Can it open Yomotsu Hirasaka! Double Six-Tomoe?"

Yu Shiki gritted his teeth, because even among the Otsutsuki clan, those who could awaken the Rinnegan of Yomotsu Hirasaka were extremely rare!

Yu Shi thought to himself: "Big Sister has been slacking off, not guarding the Divine Tree, and has secretly run off to play. If those guys find out, they will definitely hold Big Sister accountable. So at the last moment, I transferred the Ten-Tails, confirming the traitor's crime, so that they would let Big Sister off the hook."

They'll eventually go to that dimension in search of the Ten-Tails. I'm now irreconcilably at odds with those bastards from Takamagahara. Rather than let them get the Ten-Tails, I'd rather let this guy have it...

After weighing the pros and cons, Yu Shi said, "I can tell you the coordinates of that space, but you must provide me with protection!"

"Oh?" Yu said with a playful tone, "Seeking protection from humans, unbelievable, that's like something the arrogant Otsutsuki clan would say... Can you even say that?"

Yu Shi scoffed, "Hmph, the main family, the true main family, is nothing more than those twenty-eight people. How could they possibly respect us, who were originally from the main family..."

Yu Shi's subtle words caught Yu Xin's attention, but he was now more concerned about the sapling of the divine tree: "If you sincerely abandon darkness and embrace the light, I might be willing to make an exception and tell you the spatial coordinates. Remember, don't try anything funny..."

Yu told Yu the spatial coordinates.

call out!

Yu opened the Yomotsu Hirasaka... and immediately felt the aura that was the same as the Ten-Tails within his body coming from the other side.

—Sage Art: Wood Release: Clone Technique!

Yu's main body remained in the space-time continuum, while a wooden clone passed through Yomotsu Hirasaka and entered that alternate dimension.

Sure enough, on the dim earth, a young ten-tailed fox was sleeping soundly!

The Ten-Tails looked round and harmless. But as Yu's clone approached, its Rinne Sharingan opened, roaring and releasing terrifying chakra. It opened its mouth wide, and a Tailed Beast Ball condensed!

"Hehe, don't be afraid. After today, I will take care of you. I will raise you and then eat the fruit you bear..."

Yu's Wood Release clone smiled as he formed hand seals.

—Immortal Techniques: The Bright God Gate!

Rumble rumble rumble!

Crimson gates descended from the sky, suppressing the head and tail of the Ten-Tails... The tailed beast ball, which had not yet been formed, was also shattered.

With a flick of his wrist, Yu subdued the young Ten-Tails. His Wood Release clone summoned Susanoo and sealed it in a gourd with the Totsuka Blade. After activating the Rinnegan, the Totsuka Blade's sealing limit was greatly increased, making it easy to completely contain the young Ten-Tails!

Whoosh! The Wood Release clone dissipates, and the Yomotsu Hirasaka closes.

Yu looked up at Yu Shi: "Very good, you're very wise, you didn't try anything funny..."

Yu Shiki said, "Don't be too happy yet. The Ten-Tails and the Divine Tree are the lifeblood of the Otsutsuki clan. They'll come after you sooner or later..."

Yu laughed and said, "I'll come after them sooner or later. What I'm playing is a race against time..."

Yu Shi said, "Interesting fellow, we're already in the same boat, go ahead and ask..."

Chapter 564 The Secret of the Ancestor, A Promising Future!

Because of Yu's cooperation, Yu's hostility towards him lessened considerably: "You mentioned earlier that there are twenty-eight members in the main family, and what about the clan head family?"

Yu Shiki replied, "The true main family of the Otsutsuki refers to Otsutsuki Sugune-no-O, and his two younger brothers, Otsutsuki Shinwa-no-O and Otsutsuki Hannya-no-O. Including these three kings, there are a total of twenty-eight people. The collateral descendants of these three kings make up the main family of nearly three hundred people. As for the three thousand people in the branch family, their blood relations are even more distant..."

"The main family, the clan, and the branch family are directly related to the allocation of resources. After King Sugeng unified Takamagahara, all resources were tilted towards the main family. The main family almost monopolized the resources. Considering the future of the clan, a thousand years ago, King Sugeng merged the clan into the main family. So the Otsutsuki clan only has the main family and the branch family."

"But in reality, differences still exist. The original main family members still consider themselves superior. I, Ōtsutsuki Hashiki, was originally from the main family before joining the main family..."

Yu lowered his eyes and murmured, "So this is the Otsutsuki clan? A strict hierarchy. The main family looks down on the branch family, the branch family looks down on the inferior humans. What a deformed clan..."

Yu raised his eyes and asked, "Isn't Kaguya Otsutsuki the third princess of the main family, holding a high position? Why was she sent to guard the Divine Tree?"

Yu Shi was suddenly startled: "Third Princess!? Hey... the Ten-Tails inside you, could it be..."

Yu frowned and said, "Answer my question first!"

Yu Shi replied, "Kaguya is the third daughter of King Chuigen, but she is different from the eldest princess, Kaguya, and the second princess, Kaguya. She is a princess born out of wedlock, and her status is lower than that of the other two princesses, but this is not the fundamental reason."

"The root cause is that Princess Kaguya's mother made a mistake, and Kaguya volunteered to take the punishment in her mother's place, which is why she was banished to Ashihara Province to tend to the sacred tree..."

"I heard that Princess Kaguya ate the fruit of the Divine Tree without permission. Logically speaking, given her status, she was entitled to eat the fruit openly and honestly, but she ate it while she was burdened with guilt, which is a sin..."

(To reiterate: The storyline of Kaguya falling in love with the Emperor of the Land of Ancestors is an original creation of the Naruto TV series. In Masashi Kishimoto's original manga, there has never been a person named the Emperor of the Land of Ancestors. This work is based on Kishimoto's manga, not the TV series' original creation.)

(The explanation is as follows: Kaguya's motivation for consuming the fruit of the Divine Tree was not because her husband wanted her dead, but because she fell in love with the Earth from the bottom of her heart and could not bear to see the Earth ravaged by war. That's why she consumed the fruit of the Divine Tree and quelled the war. As for the change in her mindset after gaining power, that's another matter.)

(As for Kaguya giving birth to two children, it was not because she married the emperor of the Land of Ancestors, but because she pacified the war and received the blessings of the people, which led to her pregnancy.)

Yu asked the question he was most concerned about: "How many fruits of the Divine Tree did Otsutsuki Sugune actually consume? And how many people in the Otsutsuki clan have consumed the fruits of the Divine Tree?"

Yu Shi laughed: "Hehehe, that's quite a sharp question. You don't actually want to go against the Otsutsuki clan, do you? I'll just assume you're ignorant and fearless. But don't be afraid when I tell you, the Otsutsuki clan has harvested a total of thirty-six fruits of the Divine Tree's chakra over the years, nine of which were consumed by King Suigane!"

"Nine!" Yu was genuinely startled.

Yu Shiki added, "Ah, and this is under the condition of limitations. The Chakra Fruit of the Divine Tree has a 'half-life,' with each three fruits having a half-life. The first three fruits can be fully absorbed, the fourth to the sixth fruits are absorbed at half the rate, and the seventh to the ninth fruits are absorbed at half the rate again!"

"Starting from the tenth pill, taking more becomes less meaningful. To avoid wasting resources, King Chuigen did not continue taking the tenth pill, but instead allocated the resources to other members of the clan, aiming to improve the overall combat strength of the clan..."

"King Shinra, King Hannya, and Princess Kaguya each consumed three fruits, Princess Kaguya consumed two, and Princess Kaguya consumed one. The remaining fifteen fruits were subsequently consumed by fifteen members of the Otsutsuki main family!"

Yu thought: King Chuigen, King Zhenruo, King Banruo, Princess Huiyao, Princess Huiyue, and Princess Huiye, a total of six people, monopolized twenty-one fruits. If the remaining fifteen fruits are held by the fifteen members of the main family, they should be able to move up to twenty-one. Xuanhuang said before that the strength of the Dragon Style can rank among the top twenty of the main family...

Yu asked naturally, "Did Ōtsutsuki Ryushiki also take one?"

However, Yu's answer left Yu speechless: "Long Shi... did not consume the fruit of the Divine Tree. He gave the fruit that he deserved to Princess Huiyue, so Princess Huiyue was able to consume two of them!"

Yu was genuinely shocked: "What did you say!? Long Shi hasn't eaten a single Devil Fruit, yet he's stronger than many people who have!?"

Yu Shi laughed and said, "Otherwise... how can you say that guy is a monster? Also, Long Shi is not among the original twenty-eight people of the main family. Like us, he comes from the former main family! Yet he has managed to make those who came from the main family and had eaten the fruit feel ashamed with his monstrous strength!"

"The chakra fruit of the Divine Tree is not the only source of power for the Otsutsuki! This is undoubtedly best illustrated by Ryushiki!"

Cold sweat involuntarily trickled down Yu's face. He clenched his fists, his heart unable to calm down for a long time...
