Kaguya, That Stupid Woman

"Exactly the same? No two bodies in this world are exactly alike."

As he spoke, a peculiar chakra welled up in Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's palm. He held out his hand.

"Accept this power, and I can give you the Ten-Tails!"

Isshiki's offer was tempting, but the chakra in his palm felt strangely familiar to Uchiha Ensei.

In an instant, the crushing pressure of his chakra spread cracks across the surrounding walls. They
