Turtle's Wish!

In the end, things developed in the direction Shinki had predicted.

Ura swallowed both of his own eyeballs in one gulp!

Immediately afterwards, a golden portal appeared before Ura!

Ura slowly moves forward, his body passing over the gate!

Just like the evolution of Data Monster, Ōtsutsuki Pu Shi, after passing through the Gate of Radiance, transformed into a completely different form!

His eyes turned gold, and a golden Rinnegan appeared between his eyebrows!

Just like Momoshiki back then, strange black markings also appeared on his face!

In addition, the two horns on his forehead that originally resembled Forehead Protector turned outwards and became a pair of outstretched crane wings, and his legs also turned into sharp claws similar to those of birds!

"Is this considered evolution?" Shinki asked curiously.

Compared to Momoshiki's evolution by consuming Kinshiki, Ura's evolution by consuming its own eyeballs is somewhat lackluster.

On the other side, the evolved Ura's entire demeanor had changed.

He used to at least pretend to be refined, but now he's completely dropped the pretense and is acting like a madman!

"Give me a kiss!! (ꐦ ಠ 皿ಠ) "

Ura roared, Black Rods appearing in his hands as he shot them at the several Wood Clones!

"Bang bang..."

The Wood Clone turned into wood upon being shot!

Ura probably still felt this was inefficient, so he spread his arms wide and shouted, "Shinra Tensei!"

The repulsive shield deployed, repelling the Wood Clones surrounding him!

At the same time, Shinki also used Shinra Tensei...

The Hokage's Office.

Tsunade was hunched over the Hokage's Desk reviewing documents when a staff member from the Archaeological Research Institute walked in and recounted the series of events that had occurred in the warehouse...

Tsunade was shocked upon hearing this. "What did you say? The Shinki has disappeared too?!(´°Δ°`)"

The staff member nodded hesitantly. "There are no other exits inside the warehouse..."

Tsunade: "Shinki can use the Flying Thunder God to move, but that shouldn't be the case... Why would he steal something from his own village? (ㅎ‸ㅎ)"

Just then, the door to the Hokage's Office was knocked open, and Shikamaru entered.

Tsunade waved to Shikamaru and said, "Shikamaru, you've come at the right time. I was just..."

Before Tsunade finish speaking, Shikamaru excitedly exclaimed, "Lord Hokage, look!"

Seeing Shikamaru's urgency, Tsunade curiously took the document and glanced through it...

"Traces of a battle involving an unknown powerful individual have been discovered within the Land of Fire?" Tsunade said, pulling out a photograph from a file.

"Huh? This huge crater was found in the forest of the Land of Fire? ≖ ≖"

"It looks a bit like something that exploded from Rasengan... The Rasengan isn't this powerful; it's more Rasenshuriken..."

Shikamaru: "These marks look a bit like the Rinnegan's Dōjutsu..."

Tsunade: "When was it discovered?"

Shikamaru: "A lumberjack found it this morning, so it must have happened yesterday. The Anbu investigated, but they didn't find any residual Chakra. However, they did find this..."

As he spoke, Shikamaru took out a photograph.

The photo shows a Wooden Man with Black Rods embedded in its body!

Tsunade: "Shinki? Wasn't he protecting the Tailed Beasts yesterday? What was he doing in the Land of Fire forest? Ծ‸ Ծ "

Just as everyone was racking their brains trying to figure it out, the Shinki's body appeared in the Hokage's Office!!

An hour later, in the Hokage's Office.

The conference table was full of people.

At the very center of the conference table sat the tortoise used for time travel.

Naruto pointed at the turtle and asked, "So, you used this thing to travel through time?"

Tsunade continued, "Traveled back to yesterday and killed Ōtsutsuki Pu Shi?"

Shinki nodded. "Yes, but it can't be considered killing him. I used Sage Art: Multi-Escape Rasenshuriken to turn him to ashes. I didn't see his body..."

Naruto: "Isn't that killing him?! (ー_ー)!!"

Shinki explained, "You can't explain the Ōtsutsuki with common sense. Just like when Momoshiki disappeared, he left a Curse Mark on my palm. Now that Ura has disappeared, maybe I have something else on me too."

"But I haven't discovered it yet."

Sasuke, still curious, continued, "By the way, you said you absorbed Ura's golden Rinnegan?"

Shinki nodded. "Yes, back then I devised a plan to use Aoki Takeru Shadow Clone to gouge out the golden vertical eye between his eyebrows, and as soon as I got it, that eye automatically merged into my left eye Trace Eye."

After speaking, Shinki revealed his Trace Eye, and sure enough, the whites of his eyes had gained a touch of gold!

Sasuke: (⊙o⊙)

"After merging with his eyes, did you awaken any new abilities?"

Sasuke was a little envious!

Shinki nodded, saying matter-of-factly, "Of course, after my initial testing, I can now activate my Dōjutsu to Time Rewind..."

Sasuke: "How long can it rewind? (´°Δ°`)"

Shinki: "At most half a minute. When I use Time Rewind, I will return to a point in time tens of seconds ago, but my main body will not be affected by the rewind... My performance in battle will be like having foresight, because I have already experienced the 'future' once."

Naruto exclaimed in shock, "Wow, that's amazing! (๑ʘ̅ д ʘ̅๑)!!"

Sasuke: "You didn't really understand, did you! (ー_ー)!!"

Naruto: "I didn't understand it, but it sounded really impressive!"

Shinki chuckled, "The current 'Trace Eye' is very strong; there are still many abilities I haven't discovered!"

Tsunade: "..."

"Let's chat at home, this is the place to discuss important matters. ꐦ≖ ≖"

Utatane Koharu, pointed to the turtle in the middle of the table. "Right, now we should discuss what to do with this Gui Gui that can Time Travel."

Mitokado Homura nodded. "The power to reverse time—if other Ninja Villages knew about this, it would be another great war!"

"Let's seal it up! This treasure can't be used by anyone; it's practically cheating!" Sasuke suggested.

Utatane Koharu: "Agreed, this power shouldn't be allowed to anyone!"

Tsunade: "I agree too!"

Naruto: "Then I agree too!"

Shinki didn't remember to speak, but instead looked at the motionless Gui Gui, Ai: "What are your own thoughts?"

The Gui Gui was stunned!

∑(°Д°)

For the first time in so many years, since it was created, someone has asked about its thoughts! (;´༎ຶД༎ຶ`)

I've stayed in one place for too long... I want to travel.

Tsunade immediately shook her head. "No, it'll be terrible if someone else gets it... Just imagine, what if someone uses it to travel back in time and kill you, who's defenseless..."

[If my Benefactor is willing to release me, I will try my best to prevent others from obtaining me and traveling back to a previous era...]

Despite what Gui Gui said, the higher-ups in the room still disagreed.

"That's too risky! What if he leaves to find the Ōtsutsuki? I don't think that little bastard is any good! Ծ‸ Ծ"

"Exactly, people can change their minds, let alone a tortoise..."

"Konoha cannot take this risk!"

At this moment, Little Sun Naruto looked at the Shinki and said, "But it's really pitiful, lying at the Seabed for thousands of years... Is there any other solution...?"

After careful consideration, Shinki suggested, "How about I place a mixed Chakra Curse Mark on it to keep track of its every move?"

Tsunade looked at Shinki seriously and asked, "Why should you respect a tortoise's opinion?"

Upon hearing this, Shinki became serious and pointed to his left eye. "I... I see its future."

"Hoo~" Tsunade sighed softly, "Fine, set the Gui Gui free!"
