"Crack... crunch..."
The sound of bones and eyeballs being chewed was enough to make one's scalp crawl. Blood spilled from the corners of Urashiki's mouth, making his distorted face look especially hideous.
Lin Ze raised an eyebrow slightly and did nothing to stop him.
He knew a little about the Ōtsutsuki Clan's various transformations. In the original story, Urashiki had eaten his own eyes, too. It was a forbidden technique that forcibly unlocked his potential.
Since Urashiki wanted to stake his life on this, Lin Ze would let him.
As it happened, Lin Ze also wanted to see what Urashiki's true trump card was. After all, in the original story, Urashiki had been killed by Boruto, Naruto, and Sasuke working together largely because the plot demanded it.
This fellow's true strength had never actually been fully revealed.
Now, he could get a clear look at it.
Boom-!!
A terrifying aura erupted from Urashiki's body!
Urashiki began to grow taller. The clothes on his back tore apart, and a pair of enormous white wings unfurled from his shoulder blades, spanning more than five meters!
His skin turned pale, the Ōtsutsuki Clan's distinctive markings appeared across his body, and white, featherlike armor covered his arms and legs.
Most astonishing of all was his forehead-
A vertical line split open, and a brand-new golden Rinnegan opened within the fissure. His entire body...
Had transformed into the form of a giant crane!
"A crane... that really does fit the Ōtsutsuki Clan's tastes."
Lin Ze looked at Urashiki, who had finished transforming, and spoke mildly.
Urashiki's aura was now more than a level stronger than before. The pressure he gave off even surpassed Kaguya's back then, yet Lin Ze's face still showed no tension. He simply watched calmly, a hint of appraisal in his eyes.
