Gaining an Immortal Body

He remembered what was written on the stone tablet he had seen in the clan grounds. It said the same thing.

It was similar to what this ancient book described, which meant the book was accurate and its contents truly existed. That meant either he or Izuna could be in danger. He had to be extra careful.

"Hehe! What's the big deal?"

"Uncle Madara is my idol, hehe!"

When Senju Fujima saw Madara Uchiha, he quickly patted his chest and grinned.

"Idol? What does that mean?"

It was the first time Madara Uchiha had heard the word. He paused, puzzled.

"It means Uncle Madara is strong and imposing."

"I want to become someone like you, Uncle Madara. That's what an idol is, hehe!"

Senju Fujima looked at Madara Uchiha and smiled.

"Heh, you little rascal."

"I'll talk it over with your father later and see how we can better protect the village and Izuna."

"I won't let anyone hurt Izuna, or anyone else in the village. No one."

Madara Uchiha couldn't think of a way to resolve this on his own.

So he planned to discuss it with Hashirama Senju and figure out how they could better protect the village and Izuna Uchiha.

"Hehe! Okay."

"Then we'll wait here for my dad to come back."

Senju Fujima grinned. He had nothing else to do, so he'd wait for his father to return and see if they could come up with a solution.

In the original story, Black Zetsu could only be sealed using the Six Paths technique—Planetary Devastation—with the Rinnegan. Senjutsu should be able to hurt him. He should be a product of Yin-Yang Release, so it ought to have some effect.

But it's impossible to know for sure.

I wonder if the Uzumaki Clan's sealing techniques can seal him.

In the original story, Black Zetsu must have had something to do with the Uzumaki Clan being wiped out.

That means the Uzumaki Clan must have had a way to seal Black Zetsu. The clan head is probably the only one who knows it.

I'll have to go back and ask him. Maybe there are some secrets he never taught me. I don't think the techniques I've learned are enough to seal Black Zetsu.

Senju Fujima lay back in a lounge chair, unable to stop thinking. He waited for Hashirama Senju to return.

An hour later.

"Creak...!"

Soon, three people walked in. It seemed they'd finished making all the arrangements.

"You're back? Is everything taken care of?"

Madara Uchiha smiled at the three of them as they came in.

"Yes, everything's ready. I've told them to pack. We'll leave tomorrow."

Hashirama Senju nodded with a smile.

"Fujima, what are you doing here?"

Hashirama Senju spotted Senju Fujima sitting in his seat and smiled.

"Hehe! I had something to discuss with Uncle Madara, so I came over."

Senju Tengshu grinned at Hashirama Senju.

"Is that so?"

Hashirama Senju glanced at Madara Uchiha with a smile, then hung his hat on the wall and headed for a chair.

Senju Fujima quickly made room, stood up, and perched on the windowsill.

"Since you're all back, there's something I need to tell you."

"Fujima was the one who found it. I think we need to discuss it."

Madara Uchiha frowned as he spoke to the three of them.

"Oh? Did something happen?"

"Brother, what is it?"

"Hm?"

The three of them quickly turned to Madara Uchiha, their faces full of confusion.

"Fujima just gave me some information. Take a look."

"See what you make of it."

Madara Uchiha handed them the old document.

The three of them studied its contents. The more they read, the more deeply their brows furrowed, and shock flickered in their eyes.

Ding! The host has made a choice and completed the task. Reward: Madara Uchiha has become your friend despite your age difference. No matter what happens, Madara will never kill you. You also receive a special reward.

Ding! Congratulations, host. You have received a special reward. Distributing reward...

Ding! Congratulations, host. You have received the Otsutsuki Clan's Immortal Body. No matter what damage you suffer, you can recover from it and absorb any ninjutsu, except senjutsu.

Boom...!

Because Senju Fujima had told Madara Uchiha everything and made his choice, the system suddenly granted him a mysterious reward. It completely transformed his body, turning him into an immortal of the Otsutsuki Clan.

The Immortal Body was a divine body, countless times more powerful than the Senju Clan's Sage Body. It was eternally undying, which was why Kaguya Otsutsuki could only be sealed and could never be killed.

"Gasp...!"

"Why does my body feel itchy? And there's a warm current... It feels like something's transforming me."

"So this is an Immortal Body? This power is incredible. It's intoxicating, heh!"

Senju Fujima felt a special force constantly changing his body, granting him an enormous amount of chakra and immense strength.

He had never expected such a generous reward. The system had directly granted him eternal life, and he couldn't help feeling delighted.

I thought I wouldn't live long enough to see the later era. But it seems the system planned this all along, so I could take part in the history to come.

Still, an Immortal Body! Hahaha...!

He'd already had the Sage Body, but if he wanted to live to see the Fourth Shinobi World War, he'd have to reach his eighties or nineties. What would be the point of that?

Now, the system had granted him eternal life. He would never die, so he no longer had to worry about dying someday.

While Senju Fujima was still examining the vast chakra within him and his eternal life, the four Konoha High Command members were already in an uproar.

"Madara, I'll have Mito guide the Sealing Squad in researching Konoha's large-scale barrier."

"That will let us protect the village as much as possible and monitor whether outsiders try to enter Konoha."

"What this ancient book records is truly unbelievable."

"And when we combine it with what's recorded on the stone tablet in your clan grounds, it does seem very credible."

"But I can't help wondering: what would happen if both of us awakened the Rinnegan?"

Hashirama Senju frowned deeply. The events recorded in the "ancient book," combined with the stone tablet in the Uchiha Clan's grounds, suggested that the information might well be true.

But what if this powerful being proved too much for them? Their newly established Konoha was meant to bring peace to the world and give its villagers a safe, comfortable life.

Yet now there was a powerful, unknown enemy out there. If they couldn't defeat it, would the enemy destroy the Konoha they had worked so hard to build?

Suddenly, Hashirama Senju thought of the Rinnegan. The two of them could awaken it by combining their powers.

But what if they both awakened the Rinnegan? Would they be able to stand against that unknown powerhouse?

Ding! A special thought from Hashirama Senju has been detected. God Selection System activated.

[Option One: Let this matter gradually fade from memory and allow Black Zetsu to continue his plan. This will eventually result in the death of either Madara Uchiha or Izuna Uchiha, allowing one of the brothers to awaken the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan and ultimately become either Six Paths Izuna or Six Paths Madara as planned. Mission reward: a pair of Byakugan.]

[Option Two: Step forward and explain that the ancient book you wrote is completely fake and was all a prank. Mission reward: get beaten up by Madara Uchiha, Izuna, Hashirama Senju, and Tobirama together. While they beat you, the system will increase your pain sensitivity by one thousand percent, letting you experience a taste of ecstasy and agony.]

[Option Three: Help Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju awaken the Rinnegan. This will make the Senju Clan and Uchiha Clan even stronger. Only powerful strength and influence can help you lead your clan members against the Otsutsuki Clan. Mission reward: a Bloodline Enhancement Potion formula, which can evolve your clan members' bloodlines and successfully upgrade them to Otsutsuki Clan bloodlines.]

[Ding! Special note: Otsutsuki Clan bloodlines are divided into inferior bloodlines (the bloodlines of families in the Naruto world, except those of the second and third generations descended from the Sage of Six Paths and Asura, are all inferior), lower bloodlines, middle bloodlines, upper bloodlines, supreme bloodlines, and the Ancestral Lineage (Kaguya Otsutsuki has the Ancestral Lineage).]

A suggestion from Hashirama Senju had triggered the God Selection System. This was the first time someone else's words had activated it, and Senju Fujima found it incredible.

Dad can trigger the God Selection System just by talking? Has the system upgraded? How strange.

But this Bloodline Enhancement Potion is amazing. After taking it, you can directly gain an Otsutsuki Clan bloodline. Wouldn't that make you immensely stronger?

And the Otsutsuki Clan bloodlines have so many ranks. Even our Senju Clan's Sage Body counts as an inferior bloodline?

The Otsutsuki Clan is ridiculously powerful.

Senju Fujima couldn't help marveling at the Otsutsuki Clan's strength. It was beyond his imagination; Kaguya Otsutsuki's true power had never even been shown.

Even after she was revived later on, that hadn't been her true power. She'd seemed more like a puppet brought back through Impure World Reincarnation.

But I suppose it makes sense. The Sage of Six Paths was born to Kaguya Otsutsuki and an ordinary man. He was only a half-breed.

The brothers Asura and Indra were half-breeds descended from a half-breed, making their Otsutsuki bloodline even more diluted. And we're living a thousand years later.

The Senju Clan bloodline may seem incredibly powerful, but it's nothing against the Otsutsuki Clan.

Still, with the Bloodline Enhancement Potion, I can improve the bloodline ranks of the Senju Clan and the Uchiha Clan. Then they'll keep growing stronger.

"Heh, I'm looking forward to fighting the Otsutsuki Clan even more now."

Senju Fujima's lips curled into a slight smile. His growing strength made him all the more eager to face the mightier Otsutsuki Clan. He was already looking forward to fighting its powerful members.
