Thousands of years ago.
In the ancient era, the human world was in a constant state of war.
The various countries, clans, and tribes were in a chaotic war that never stopped.
One day, night fell!
BOOM!
Suddenly, a sound exploded in the sky. Countless people looked up, their expressions changing drastically.
In the night sky, a meteorite that seemed to be burning with flames streaked across the sky, leaving a crimson beam of light in its wake.
In an instant, who knows where it had rushed to, a strong tremor spread in all directions!
In a desolate land!
A huge meteorite crater appeared, emitting a high-temperature white smoke.
In the crater, two figures were standing.
Their bodies exuded a terrifying pressure that all the people of the current era could not imagine.
One was a woman, tall and slender, with fair skin and a beautiful face. She had long, light blue-white hair, and her Byakugan eyes were shining.
Her temperament was cold, but her eyes were filled with curiosity about everything around her.
The other was a man.
He had grayish-white hair, a long, curved horn on his forehead, a Byakugan in his left eye, and black patterns in his right eye.
His temperament was cold and sinister, and he glanced at the surroundings with disdain.
The Otsutsuki clan.
A combination of a guardian and a protected one, like Kinshiki and Momoshiki.
This woman was one level lower than the man. She was a guardian and was under the man's command.
The two of them needed to plant a God Tree in this world and give the fruit to the Otsutsuki higher-ups.
If a certain period of time was exceeded, the Otsutsuki would send a new combination to investigate and retrieve it.
"This world of lower-class creatures has some good-looking things..."
Noticing the woman secretly sizing up the surroundings, the man's voice was full of arrogance.
"Don't waste time. Follow me to plant the God Tree."
The woman did not speak and followed calmly.
But in her Byakugan eyes, there was a strange light that a normal guardian did not have.
A guardian subordinate?
Sorry, in the eyes of the Otsutsuki clan, subordinates were rations, things that could be sacrificed and abandoned at any time.
The two of them were fast!
"To be able to see me is your honor, you lower-class creatures..."
Some of the humans they encountered on the road were all destroyed by the man with a wave of his hand, full of arrogance and disdain!
The woman was silent, already used to it.
There was a dimensional gap between the Otsutsuki clan and ordinary humans. In the eyes of the Otsutsuki, humans were no different from ants.
The environment and worldview they had grown up in had determined that their cognition was different from that of humans.
Don't even expect those arrogant Otsutsuki to have any pity for humans.
A moment later!
The two of them stopped.
The man arrogantly sensed the surroundings and sneered, "I didn't expect this small planet to have such special energy..."
"In this way, the God Tree will grow faster than on other planets."
Natural energy was not chakra!
Sage Art chakra: spiritual energy + cellular energy + natural energy.
The natural energy in the ninja world was the circulating energy of the world.
Even in the universe, there were few worlds that contained natural energy.
"However, I can't waste time on this world..."
Although it was much faster, the man wanted to cultivate it even faster.
So, the man looked at the woman and said arrogantly and as a matter of course:
"Let's proceed according to the plan, Kaguya!"
"Mhm."
The woman hummed softly, with no intention of objecting.
The man smiled arrogantly.
The woman: Kaguya Otsutsuki!
The man: Isshiki Otsutsuki!
Isshiki was one level higher than Kaguya.
But a small level was a world of difference in the Otsutsuki clan.
The plan: in order to cultivate the Ten-Tails into a God Tree and bear a chakra fruit, Isshiki would sacrifice Kaguya, who was one level lower than him, to the Ten-Tails.
To cultivate the God Tree faster and more perfectly!
In other words, Kaguya had to exchange her life for the perfect and accelerated birth of the fruit.
Like Momoshiki and Kinshiki:
With a single word from Momoshiki, Kinshiki had directly offered his life and had become a fruit, which was eaten by Momoshiki.
With the difference in level, Kaguya could not refuse.
The more arrogant a race was, the stricter the rules were. It was basically impossible for a subordinate to disobey an order.
"Come out, Ten-Tails!"
A sphere wrapped in chakra appeared in Isshiki Otsutsuki's hand. Inside it was a creature with ten tails.
SWOOSH!
The Ten-Tails sphere was thrown to the ground by Isshiki. The chakra, like a beam of light, directly pierced an abyss in the ground!
Quickly, lush branches climbed out from the abyss, forming a sky-piercing tree.
But quickly, it grew slower and slower!
"Get ready to be sacrificed, Kaguya!"
Isshiki Otsutsuki said, and pressed his hand on the God Tree, continuously pouring chakra into it!
And between the two, a huge, nine-tomoe-patterned golden halo was formed.
Isshiki Otsutsuki was wholeheartedly maintaining the sacrificial halo. He said without turning his head:
"Now, get in quickly!"
A sacrifice?
A complex light flashed in Kaguya's Byakugan.
Apart from receiving an unexpected reward from the higher-ups, the level of most people in the Otsutsuki was determined from birth.
From a young age, the Otsutsuki had been taught that a guardian had to be ready to offer their life for the protected one at any time.
This philosophy was engraved in their bones.
It was even more ruthless than the main and branch families of the Hyuga clan.
But there were always some guardians who were unwilling. Why did they have to die for the protected one?
But such a guardian who violated the philosophy of the Otsutsuki, once discovered, would be executed on the spot!
Kaguya!
The one who had not been discovered!
"Hiss, hiss, hiss!"
At this moment, Kaguya Otsutsuki gathered all her chakra.
Sensing the chakra fluctuations behind him, Isshiki did not feel that something was wrong and continued to urge:
"There's no need to condense your chakra. Just go in and offer..."
BOOM!
The next moment, Kaguya attacked with all her might!
A pain came from behind.
Isshiki, who was maintaining the sacrificial formation and channeling chakra into the God Tree, was shocked, angry, and in disbelief:
"Kaguya Otsutsuki! What are you doing? You dare to attack me? You..."
Before he could finish, he was forced to fall forward and, without reacting, fell into the sacrificial formation.
Hiss, hiss, hiss!
A large mouth appeared on the God Tree, and it greedily devoured Isshiki Otsutsuki!
"Aaaaargh!"
In an instant, his body was constantly being devoured by the God Tree, which made Isshiki feel an unprecedented pain and resentment!
"Kaguya Otsutsuki! You have violated the ancestral teachings! The elders will not let you go! Aaaaargh..."
Isshiki roared one after another, and Kaguya watched calmly.
"Damn it!"
Isshiki Otsutsuki's eyes were ferocious and he could hardly struggle. In the end, he gritted his teeth and activated the jutsu in his right eye!
Isshiki's right eye: it had a black, wheel-like pattern with eight spokes in the center.
"Sukunabikona!"
In an instant, Isshiki erupted with all his remaining chakra.
His whole person turned into a tiny stream of light and disappeared!
"He escaped?"
Kaguya's Byakugan pupils contracted slightly.
Sukunabikona: one of Isshiki's right eye's abilities, which could instantly shrink all the objects he saw, and could also shrink himself by several hundred times.
Apart from himself, he could not shrink any living creature.
He had shrunk himself, concentrated his chakra into one point, and had broken a small sacrificial crack, escaping with his life!
"With that kind of injury, even if he's alive, he's no longer a threat..."
Kaguya said softly and also relaxed.
She just didn't want to die a meaningless death.
But after all, she had attacked the protected one. She could never go back.
Sooner or later, she would be hunted down by the Otsutsuki clan.
Isshiki Otsutsuki, who had fled a thousand li away, although he was not dead, had still been devoured by the God Tree by half his body.
He was seriously injured and on the verge of death!
"Damn it! Kaguya, damn it! You dare to attack me! The shame of the Otsutsuki..."
Isshiki fell to the ground with resentment. He still couldn't believe that Kaguya had dared to attack him.
The Otsutsuki clan would never allow such a heretic to exist. Wasn't she afraid of death?
Kaguya: I'm so scared. Won't someone save me?
"Pfft, cough, cough..."
Isshiki Otsutsuki was constantly coughing up blood. Suddenly, his expression froze.
Because in front of him, a monk with his hair gathered at the top of his head and a long braid behind his head was walking.
"Are you alright..."
Seeing that Isshiki had lost half his body, the monk was startled, but he prepared to treat him.
A lower-class creature!
Looking at the monk approaching, a vicious glint flashed in Isshiki's eyes.
Karma: a unique ability of the Otsutsuki clan. A member of the Otsutsuki clan can copy and digitize themselves, and then implant it into a human body.
But at this moment, Isshiki was weak and did not have enough power to engrave the Karma on the monk and make him a "vessel"!
"Sukunabikona!"
Isshiki once again shrank his body by several hundred times and directly entered the monk's body through his ear.
"Aaaaargh! What are you doing..."
Isshiki decided to live in the monk's body in a parasitic form while absorbing nutrients.
After he had recovered a little, he would then control the monk's brain, engrave the Karma, and use the monk to revive.
The monk's name was: Jigen!
Because of Isshiki's energy, he had lived for over a thousand years.
The supreme leader of the Kara organization in Boruto!
Isshiki Otsutsuki: the behind-the-scenes big boss in Boruto!
On the other side!
Kaguya was standing in a daze, and was also watching the God Tree grow rapidly.
"This tree is not bad, but it's useless to me..."
Suddenly, a steady and powerful voice exploded in her ear.
Miss Kaguya was suddenly startled!
"Who is it?"
