"Byakugan, the power of Yin-Yang Release, flight, Daikokuten, Sukunabikona, Space-Time Portal... so it was part of that unlucky bastard's body!"
"Then this really is the genuine Otsutsuki bloodline. Ōtsutsuki Isshiki of the Main Family had an even purer bloodline than Ōtsutsuki Kaguya."
Byakugan: A dōjutsu originating from the Ōtsutsuki Clan, granting a 360-degree field of vision. It provides X-ray vision capable of seeing an opponent's chakra pathways, pressure points, and chakra circulation, as well as seeing through objects; telescopic vision capable of seeing into the distance; and highly perceptive vision with exceptional observational ability. Chakra can amplify its visual capabilities, allowing the user to see everything within a one-kilometer radius. Its perceptiveness surpasses the Sharingan. Byakugan Pressure: The pressure exerted by a pure-blooded Otsutsuki, similar to a gravitational field. Space-Time Portal: Summons a circular, black-hole-like portal beside the user, allowing free travel between different dimensions. It can also envelop a target and transport them away. Sukunabikona: Can shrink virtually any substance indefinitely, but cannot shrink living beings other than the user. Naturally, restoring something to its original size takes only an instant. Daikokuten: Can store shrunken objects in an alternate dimension where time stands still, and instantly summon objects from that dimension at any time. Samadhi true fire: Summoned and enlarged using Daikokuten, it can form fireballs for both close- and long-range attacks. It is the eternal true fire of the Flaming Mountain. [Daikokuten] Black Receiver Rain: Uses Daikokuten to gather countless Black Receivers stored in an alternate dimension into a spiked sphere, which then bursts apart, raining down for a large-scale area attack. The Black Receivers can also be used to sense others' chakra. Levitation: One of the Ōtsutsuki Clan's abilities, allowing free levitation and flight. Karma: Members of the Ōtsutsuki Clan can copy themselves, convert themselves into data, and implant it into another person's body. A black diamond-shaped mark appears on the recipient's palm as a sign. This mark is "Karma." As long as Karma remains, the Otsutsuki will resurrect. They are beings who transcend death. Even if the Karma mark disappears, the thawed and dissolved Otsutsuki data remains within the "vessel's" body, though it no longer contains the complete information of the Otsutsuki individual.
As Qing Wu continued sorting through the memories in his mind, he discovered the source of his abilities: Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, the big boss from Boruto: Naruto Next Generations—the unlucky bastard from the Ōtsutsuki Main Family whom Ōtsutsuki Kaguya had ambushed.
"Fuck, who can top this? I've hit the jackpot! Hahaha..."
Finally, Qing Wu discovered the blood-red eye on his forehead. It was the Rinne Sharingan, a power bestowed by the Ten-Tails fragment. Kekkei Mōra!
"What a shame. With part of its essence missing, there's only one downgraded technique: Limited Tsukuyomi. Tsk, tsk..." Qingwu smacked his lips, somewhat dissatisfied...
"Ahem... I shouldn't be too greedy." Qingwu felt he was getting insatiable, always wanting more.
Getting to live another life was already incredibly lucky, never mind receiving so many opportunities.
"Holy crap, the Demon Refining Pot really deserves to be called a divine artifact of creation. It's ridiculously powerful! Since I was gestated anew and born from my mother's womb, that makes me a Primordial Divine."
Of course, Qingwu was only a primordial divine being born within the Naruto world, pathetically weak compared with those in fantasy worlds or the Primordial World.
In the Naruto world, where bloodlines and innate talent are everything, mine have to be the most badass, right? I'm a life-form combining a genuine Otsutsuki bloodline with the Ten-Tails God Tree.
He had even snagged portions of Ashura's and Indra's bloodlines.
He definitely had a top-tier build.
"In terms of the very essence of life, I was born a cut above everyone in this world. That's the foundation for my rise!"
"Most importantly, I'll live a long time!"
So can I call myself Otsutsuki Qing Wu now? Though Hyuga Qing Wu sounds pretty good too. That's the name my parents gave me in this life. And in my previous life, I was Yuan Qingwu.
At that thought, Qing Wu grew a little melancholy.
His transmigration had been far too abrupt. There were still so many things left unfinished, so many regrets left unresolved. Perhaps that was simply life—most things never went the way one hoped. You never knew which would arrive first: tomorrow or an unexpected disaster.
"Now that I'm here, I might as well make the best of it. From here on, it's up to me. Sigh... I'm clearly still a baby, so why am I already getting sentimental about life?"
"Brother Huaqiang put it well: can you even call yourself young if you aren't hot-blooded? Live with a little spirit! Being alive is enough—why ask for more? Seriously, what's wrong with me?"
Qing Wu was already luckier than many people. At least he had a chance to start over, even if it wasn't in his own world.
But he had now been born into this world and become part of the fucked-up Naruto world. Whether he liked it or not, that was an established fact.
Now I have the basic power to avenge my parents. Next, I just need to find their killers. Fuck, evidence? I don't need evidence... kill them... kill everyone involved...
"I don't eat beef."
"Ah, pfft... hurry up and pick up the beef... the ear..."
Perhaps his years as a corporate wage slave had ground Qingwu down too hard. An unimaginable viciousness erupted in his eyes... with a weapon in hand, the urge to kill arose on its own...
"Kage world, here I come!"
"Just wait for me to turn everything upside down. If I don't leave something behind, this second life will have been wasted."
Being the mastermind behind the scenes or the ultimate villain sounds pretty good too. Let's set a modest goal first: win little Hinata over. Unify the Hyuga Clan—I'll still need some subordinates to get things done.
Then he would find a way to resurrect his parents. He would have to plan around those few methods... that was the plan Qingwu quietly made in his heart.
[I was born to be a mountain, not a stream, to look down from the summit upon the valleys of mediocrity. #BoundlessSea]
He had his goal and his inheritance.
Qingwu wasted no more time and began training.
The inheritance the Demon Refining Pot had given him included a Visualization Method for cultivating his soul. For his body, he would use his Otsutsuki bloodline to pursue the path of life transformation and dimensional ascension. This was the most suitable path for Qingwu now.
After all, he had an Otsutsuki bloodline now.
Time waited for no one. At this point, many people were powerful enough to threaten him, and he had already missed out on many things.
Ultimately, it all came down to one word.
Strength.
While Hyuga Seigo was training hard in seclusion...
"What??"
"Grandpa, you want me to go to school? With those little brats? You're kidding, right?"
Staring at the admission notice before him, Qingwu was dumbfounded.
"Child, it's time you got out a little. Your parents wouldn't want you shutting yourself away like this either. Listen to Grandpa. I wouldn't do anything to hurt you. Go make some friends."
Hyuga Hoze looked at his grandson's body, so much smaller than those of other children his age, his eyes full of sorrow and tenderness. Because he had been born prematurely, his eight-year-old grandson had about the same physique and height as a five- or six-year-old.
"Uh... all right, Grandpa. I'll go..."
Qingwu had been about to refuse and tell his grandfather that he was better now and could train on his own. But just as the words reached his lips, his grandfather's loving gaze made him swallow them.
It wasn't that he wanted to hide anything. Sometimes, you simply shouldn't reject an elder's kindness, because it would hurt them.
"Haha, good! Then get yourself ready, my dear grandson. School starts in a few days. Whatever you need, Grandpa will take you shopping. Our family isn't short on money. We'll buy the best and most expensive!"
Hyuga Hoze was a little stunned by how readily his grandson agreed. He had expected to need a good deal of persuasion and had prepared plenty to say. Then he burst into hearty laughter, brimming with generosity.
"Hehe... thank you, Grandpa."
Qingwu thought, School is great. Who would ever expect an elementary school kid to be dangerous? Especially one who was born prematurely.
Hehe... this world needs a few surprises.
Ninja Academy, here I come.
