Chapter 513: Chapter 513 Newborn Kimimaro
At this very moment, the blood of the Ōtsutsuki is wildly transforming Kimimaro.
Sasuke carefully observes the circulation of the Ōtsutsuki blood within Kimimaro's body.
Strictly speaking, if left unchecked, Kimimaro will soon be completely transformed by the Ōtsutsuki blood,
effectively becoming a true member of the Ōtsutsuki clan.
At the same time, even Kimimaro's will might be eroded.
This!
This is not the outcome Sasuke desires.
If even his consciousness is obliterated, even if his body survives,
can that Kimimaro still be considered "Kimimaro"?
Thinking of this, Sasuke feels somewhat troubled.
'I didn't expect it to come to this!'
This way, it still doesn't change the fact that Kimimaro will die.
What a pity!
But then, Sasuke suddenly pauses.
'Since I can see it, I wonder if I can use the power of the Deity Gates to control this Ōtsutsuki blood!'
The moment this possibility crosses his mind,
a gleam flashes in Sasuke's eyes.
If he can see it, then it must be possible to change it.
By using the power of the Deity Gates to interfere, it might not be impossible to help Kimimaro complete the fusion with the Ōtsutsuki blood!
Thinking of this, Sasuke immediately feels invigorated.
It's as if everything can truly be controlled by Sasuke.
He immediately uses the power of the Deity Gates to disrupt the flow of the Ōtsutsuki blood within Kimimaro's body,
guiding all the blood to fuse around Kimimaro's Kekkei Genkai, the Shikotsumyaku.
Soon, in Sasuke's vision, the red bloodlines representing the Ōtsutsuki blood and the gray threads representing Kimimaro's Shikotsumyaku Kekkei Genkai
merge to form a completely new Kekkei Genkai.
What now appears is a red glow.
Kimimaro's Kekkei Genkai has been altered by Sasuke.
After fusing with the Ōtsutsuki Kekkei Genkai, the original Shikotsumyaku should have evolved into what is known as the Kōsaku Kotsu.
However, since it is pure Ōtsutsuki blood and not the upgraded power from Kaguya's God Tree fruit,
Kimimaro's Shikotsumyaku seems to have evolved in a different direction.
Watching as bones pierce through Kimimaro's body one after another,
covered in a red glow, the bones emit an eerie red light, and Sasuke can feel the power radiating from them.
He senses a faint corrosive force.
If struck by these bones, the affected area would likely corrode away in no time.
No matter the enemy, they would quickly lose their combat ability.
The strength of Kimimaro's Shikotsumyaku has now undergone another transformation,
gaining some special powers. It seems that even something like the Truth-Seeking Balls might not be enough to destroy Kimimaro's Shikotsumyaku now.
In other words, Kimimaro's bones have indirectly acquired Six Paths power.
At the same time, Kimimaro's eyes have also changed Byakugan!
Activated!
As the representative of a taijutsu-based Kekkei Genkai, the evolved Shikotsumyaku, combined with the Byakugan,
will significantly enhance Kimimaro's combat power.
With Six Paths-level power, Kimimaro also gains the ability to float.
Additionally, Kimimaro seems to have acquired red chakra.
If Sasuke had to make a choice when fusing with Ōtsutsuki power,
Kimimaro, though he didn't make any choice, seems to have a natural inclination toward energy-based traits.
It seems that human bloodlines have a natural talent for energy manipulation.
Thus, among humans with Ōtsutsuki blood, energy manipulation is exceptionally powerful.
This must be humanity's innate talent!
Kimimaro slowly opens his eyes, feeling his new body and new power.
He is astonished.
"Sasuke-sama! What is this...?"
Sasuke smiles. "I upgraded your Kekkei Genkai a bit. It seems you've gained quite a lot!"
Hearing this, Kimimaro is shocked. Did Sasuke-sama just casually upgrade his Kekkei Genkai?
The feeling now is indeed very different.
The Shikotsumyaku has become even more effortless to use, and the amount of energy is astonishing.
The red chakra feels like an entirely new and incredible power to Kimimaro.
He raises his hand, gathering the red chakra into cone-shaped spikes,
controlling them to attack from a distance, with terrifying penetrating power.
Watching Kimimaro's movements,
Sasuke pauses. Has Kimimaro gained a long-range attack method?
This, combined with Kimimaro's formidable close-combat abilities, effectively compensates for his previous weaknesses.
Now, Kimimaro is essentially a member of the Ōtsutsuki clan, though due to the direction of his bloodline evolution being the Shikotsumyaku,
he isn't entirely an Ōtsutsuki.
[Congratulations, host, for defeating an Ōtsutsuki clan member.]
[Ōtsutsuki power level increased.]
[Ōtsutsuki Power: Stage Two.]
Reaching the second stage of Ōtsutsuki power, Sasuke instantly feels that his mutated Ōtsutsuki power the purple chakra
has grown even stronger.
Summoning the Kusanagi sword into his hand, Sasuke feels that even a Truth-Seeking Ball could be easily cut with a single strike.
Impressive power.
But unfortunately, the system notification ends here.
Clearly, the task of killing an Ōtsutsuki clan member is not yet complete.
'Isshiki... isn't dead either?'
Sasuke frowns.
Right, the Ōtsutsuki can revive through Kāma. If Isshiki left a Kāma behind,
then Sasuke only destroyed Isshiki's current body, not completely eliminating him.
So, it doesn't count as killing Isshiki.
Similarly, Kaguya's body has only disappeared, her consciousness returning to the moon.
So, it doesn't count as killing her either.
Sasuke feels somewhat helpless that the task remains incomplete.
This won't do.
Looking up at the moon, Sasuke realizes he needs to find a way to release Kaguya and then kill her.
With his current power, breaking the Six Paths' seal shouldn't be too difficult.
Then, he'll use Kaguya to complete the task!
Thinking of this, Sasuke glances at Kimimaro.
"Let's go! Follow me!"
Hearing this, Kimimaro stops experimenting with his new body and power.
He nods.
Sasuke quickly ascends into the air, heading toward the moon.
After a moment of hesitation, Kimimaro follows.
The two fly toward the moon, while Naruto and the others watch in stunned silence.
"Is this... over?"
"Kaguya is gone, and that strange Ōtsutsuki Isshiki is dead?"
The others don't know the specifics, but it seems like it's over.
"No... it's not over yet!"
Suddenly, a voice rings out.
Naruto turns sharply to see the spirit of the Sage of Six Paths appearing.
He looks up at Sasuke, who is heading toward the moon.
"Uchiha Sasuke seems to be preparing to release my mother!"
Release... mother?
The person the Sage of Six Paths calls mother must be... Kaguya?
Wait, why is the Sage saying Sasuke is preparing to release Kaguya?
"Sage of Six Paths, what are you saying Sasuke is planning to do? Release who?"
Naruto is confused.
"The moon is the seal that imprisons my mother. Sasuke heading there now can only mean one thing to release my mother, Ōtsutsuki Kaguya... Go."
