I can't believe that I have reached the tenth chapter in a short period of time. I don't know if I have typos or mistakes in my previous chapters but you know, I can't help it. I don't specifically review my work because I usually type this in the cybercafe where I would pay per hour. When I type every chapter, it would take me almost an hour or more to complete it. Anyways, here's the story.
Chapter 10: Dojutsu
He still hasn't heard about Sora and Temujin yet, concerning the meteorite in Hoshigakure. He was now worried and he opted to go there. Because he doesn't know the location, he was forced to use the Flight Technique and change his appearance so that no one would recognize him. He opted for the face of the young version of the Third Hokage himself.
He flew across the skies, and asked several people on his way where Hoshigakure is. As he soon as he found the village, he used his Chakra Sensing Technique to sense his subordinates, yet he couldn't sense them. Flying across the village, he saw Sora and Temujin fighting against Akahoshi.
"Mysterious Peacock Method: Dragon". Akahoshi attacked Temujin and Temujin blocked it using his Gelel powers. Meanwhile, Sora was hit by the attack and fell down to the ground unconscious.
"Sora, Sora!", Temujin shouted.
Meanwhile, Sumaru was unconscious in the ensuing chaos, as the chakra of the meteorite damaged his physical health. Temujin was about to use his Gelel powers to heal Sumaru and Sora yet he was intercepted by Akahoshi himself.
"Kid, I know you want the meteorite for yourself, but do not expect that you will get it from me", he laughed.
"It's not for me. It's for the clan head. And the meteorite is essential to our plan", Temujin shouted/
"And what plan is it?", he asked curiously.
"It's not for you to know!", a mysterious voice said.
Temujin turned on his back and he saw someone, a brown haired man changing his appearance into Naruto.
"Byakuya-sama", Temujin muttered.
"Pay for what you've done to my subordinates", Naruto muttered.
His eyes changed into Mangekyo Sharingan and his Mangekyo is shaped into a dark circle with a red snowflake inside it.
"You…You're an Uchiha?", Akahoshi asked nervously.
"Do not compare me to those bunches of ignorant fools, and it's not important to know who I am. Amaterasu."
A scorch of black flames enveloped Akahoshi and he was toasted to death, his screams echoing into the air. Next, the meteorite shot out of Akahoshi's body and went into the hand of Naruto. Naruto could feel the enormous chakra radiating from the meteorite.
"Temujin, heal Sora and Sumaru."
Following Naruto's orders, he healed the two yet they haven't woken up.
"So, the meteorite's chakra is indeed dangerous, not only dangerous but entirely strong. Temujin, I want you to bring Sora and Sumaru to our hideout. Let them rest for a while as I will be absorbing this chakra for myself".
With that, Temujin nodded and he used his Gelel powers to get away from Hoshigakure. Meanwhile, Purple Zetsu appeared out of nowhere when Naruto was absorbing the meteorite's powers.
"Have you covered anything up?"
"You shouldn't worry, my Lord. Everything from the existence of Akahoshi to the very existence of the Third Hoshikage was altered up. I've also altered the memories of the citizens, believing that Akahoshi died due to an illness and the meteorite has been destroyed because of over usage".
"Very well, Purple Zetsu. You're reliable as always", Naruto said smirking.
As Naruto finished absorbing the chakra of the meteorite, it exploded.
"With the powers of the Shinju, the Gelel and the meteorite, they shall fear Otsutsuki Byakuya", he grinned.
"Young Master, before you leave, do you have any orders?"
"Oh. Speaking of which, I want you to track one of the Legendary Sannin, Tsunade. And also, I want you to investigate the family roots of the Senju. We might as well find some interesting DNA samples that are not known by people in this world", he spoke. "Or perhaps, other dead Senju asides from Hashirama and Tobirama", he added, smirking at Zetsu.
"As you wish". Then Purple Zetsu disappeared.
Naruto flew going to the Shinju near the cliff with the abandoned village to check if the tree has bore another fruit. As soon as he got there, he smiled. He reminisced about the moments that for the past six years, he would go to the village and eat the fruit it produced at the end of every three months. Each time he eats the fruit, the amount of chakra he possesses increases yet his overall form did not change. As he neared the tree, he saw that it produced another fruit, but this time there's something strange about it. He wondered why the color of the fruit has changed. The fruit has become golden in color.
Deciding not to eat the fruit for a moment, he decided to explore the abandoned village, as he hasn't explored them before.
The village itself was in ruins and there were castles that were still in its original state, yet one could tell that the castles were already old because vines have grown over its walls. Naruto explored and he entered one of the castles. Curious for the history of the place, he searched for some documents and he saw a room where ancient records of the place where stored.
"Land of the Dead: The tree has been here for at least 3,000 years. We were also surprised when there was another one that grew in the Land of Ancestors a hundred years ago. The tree is not new and we began to call this place The Land of the Dead because anyone who would dare come here would die under mysterious circumstances", Naruto read.
"What is this?". Naruto began to search for several documents until he saw something that made him grinned.
"It's forbidden to eat the fruit as it would bring death to anyone else. However, I disagree from that very idea. I believe that when someone eats the fruit, one would gain powers that would make them conquer the world. One day, when I came near the tree, its fruit fell down but I decided not to eat it. I just kept the fruit for myself and put it inside a box. After a day, I've noticed the fruit has withered and it became ash. I came near the tree once again but distanced a little bit, afraid that I would die. I began to survey the tree on a daily basis but nothing has changed. 3 months have passed, I came back and I was surprised that it bore another fruit. When I came back the next day, it was totally gone. Soon, I've discovered that the tree produces fruit at the end of every three months and it prompted me to study more of it. Yesterday, there was a fruit hanging on its branches and I took the time to survey the area. I was surprised when I've found a secret passage and I saw that the tree has a pulsating object. I don't know what the purpose of the pulsating object is but I've concluded one thing. Anyone who eats the fruit would gain unrivaled power, yet if the fruit weren't to be eaten on the day it blooms, the next day it disappears".
"Quite the information, huh? I've known the fruit harbors fruit every 3 months but I didn't expect that it would be recorded here. Plus, additional information.", Naruto muttered.
Gathering some of the documents, Naruto flew back to the tree and searched for the secret passage. It took him no time to search it and then he saw the secret passage. He entered it and saw that the surroundings where surrounded with a purplish light and he heard beating inside the tree. He searched for it and saw that the pulsating object that the document talks about is the 'heart' of the tree.
He touched the 'heart' and he was thrown back by a mysterious force.
"What is this? This power is much more powerful compared to the one I have.", he muttered.
Naruto soon realized that the 'heart' of the tree absorbs nature energy from the surroundings, and the reason that a lot of people from foreign lands die is that because the heart absorbs their life forces. He then reread some of the documents finding some info and saw one that made him more eager to learn more about the tree itself.
"The tree would not absorb the nature energy or life forces of humans when it has fruit on the last day of every third month. Thus, one is safe to come if the tree has a fruit"
He scanned some passages and he found one interesting piece.
"Legends say that when the tree bears a golden fruit, stay away immediately, as the tree would blast you into oblivion"
"Ho, they made it exaggerating, huh?"
Suddenly, the heart glowed and it began entangling Naruto, absorbing the chakra he has.
"Is this tree sentient or something?", he asked aloud.
The heart gathered the chakra inside Naruto yet he managed to escape its clutches. Naruto was left weakened and he felt the chakra inside him disappearing. He couldn't fight the tree itself that's why he went out immediately. As soon as he got out, the roots grew out everywhere and tried to capture him, desperately advancing to continue suck his chakra.
"I have no match for this tree", he muttered.
Then a thought came into his mind. He wanted to devour the golden fruit.
"Lots of my chakra has been taken by this tree, and because the tree has taken it, I've decided to eat its golden fruit. I don't care whether I die or not, I would risk everything for power!", he exclaimed.
Before the roots could entangle him, he used Yomotsu Hirasaka and aimed for the fruit. He was intercepted by several branches and he dodged them all. He used his newly acquired Mangekyo Sharingan and used Amaterasu to burn down its branches and roots.
As his way was cleared out, he quickly used Yomotsu Hirasaka and grabbed the fruit. Eating all of the glowing golden fruit, he felt the absorbed chakra returning to him. Not only his absorbed chakra returning but it tripled in amount. Asides from that, he was surprised that the tree exploded and the tree's heart was left pulsating in its place. Coming near the heart, he tried picking it up, only for it turn into a bright purplish energy ball and entered his body.
Naruto felt himself more powerful than before. His true form with the lavender white hair became silver with streaks of purple and white. His horns became golden in color. His clothes now consisted of black and golden robes adorned with silver dragon-like designs on the ends. Underneath his robes he wore loose black pants emblazoned with several intricate white abstract lines and his glass boots became obsidian. His eyes became a light shade of purple with golden specks in it. Instinctively, his eyes turned into inhuman in appearance, having a pentagram as an iris with several intricate designs on it and a heavenly body that looks like the moon as his pupil as a new dojutsu.
P.S. The picture for Naruto's dojutsu is the cover of this fanfic story, I don't know how to describe. Photo by Julia Hearns. I do not own the picture. I just used it for this fanfic story.
Guys, question, do you like this chapter? Maybe you would hate me making Naruto more powerful this much but don't worry, he would not unleash his true power every time he fights. He would only use minimal chakra because he doesn't want to waste it, and besides, he would only show his true potential when he feels its necessary. And also, maybe you would be confused where I would say Naruto transformed back into his form. Maybe you'll be confused when Anyways, sorry for any typos or mistakes. See you on the next chapter. Bye!
