[V2] - 50. Kama
---
The next day.
Morning.
That was such a good sleep!
Feeling the warmth of the sunlight, Boruto couldn't help stretching lazily, but in just a mont, he suddenly rembered sothing. His body stiffened, and his eyes snapped open.
Didn't he get taken advantage of by Otsutsuki Momoshiki because he stayed up all night grinding materials with ten shadow clones?!
"Otsutsuki Momoshiki!!!"
A loud roar.
But when he opened his eyes and saw the people around him, the anger on his face stalled a bit—especially when he saw that white-coated doctor...
"Director Kabuto?"
"This kid's got no major issues! Just a bit physically weak from long-term late nights!" Kabuto glanced at him, took out a dical chart, and seed to be writing sothing. "Thankfully, he's got the Uzumaki clan's constitution. Otherwise, with this kind of all-nighter routine, an ordinary person's body would've already collapsed!"
As he spoke, he looked at Uchiha Yuto. "Don't let him stay up that long again. If there's nothing else, I'll be heading off now."
With that—
He didn't linger and left imdiately.
He had a pretty busy job too!
After the doctor left, Uzumaki Boruto gave a sheepish smile and glanced around at the people, especially at the Fourth Hokage—who technically counted as his grandfather—then imdiately lowered his head in embarrassnt. "I'm sorry!"
"Even if you want to play, you need to balance work and rest!" Minato shook his head helplessly. "Even though you're worried you won't be able to play when you return, I also don't want to see you die suddenly in this ninja world!"
"I understand!" Boruto quickly nodded, then felt his body. Though still a bit sore, it seed to be back to normal. He asked in confusion, "Where's Otsutsuki Momoshiki?"
"Don't worry, he's been dealt with!" Yuto replied with a smile, pulling out a stack of damage reports. "Take a look! You smashed up the house, plus the nearby roads and villagers—luckily no casualties. Now it's ti to talk compensation! That's what you get for pulling an all-nighter to grind! For small gains, you get a big loss!"
As he finished—
Boruto's face froze. His hands trembled as he took the stack of papers. His face turned green when he saw the string of numbers. "I—I—I..."
"Don't scare him!" Minato sighed and shook his head, looking at the amused Yuto. "I'll take care of the compensation. But as for this Otsutsuki Momoshiki..." Then, his eyes turned serious as he looked at the Kama on Boruto's body. "We must find a way to deal with it!"
In the end, if Yuto hadn't stepped in in ti, that guy probably would've gotten away. But Yuto's three-tomoe Sharingan—why was it so powerful?
Thinking back to last night—
Yuto appeared right in front of Otsutsuki Momoshiki, dragged him out, then stuffed a ball of chakra into his mouth, helping Boruto regain his senses.
Simple and brutal!
And that Otsutsuki Urashiki in the black space behind had clearly noticed and was shocked by those eyes too. He said a few words before closing the space and left.
What a sha.
They didn't catch that guy.
And no one knows what he's really up to!
"If not dealt with, this Kama is basically a ticking ti bomb in the body!"
"Naruto and Orochimaru are already trying to find a solution," Sasuke nodded gravely as well. "But the abilities of the Otsutsuki clan are strange—very similar to the Jinchuriki of the tailed beasts. Forcing it out might threaten Boruto's life. Hopefully, we'll find another way."
At that—
Boruto let out a helpless sigh. But a mont later, his optimistic spirit returned, and he said as if he didn't mind, "Don't worry, I'm used to it. As long as I'm careful and don't let him co out, it'll be fine!"
This ti—
It really was just an accident.
He wouldn't dare pull an all-nighter again!
However—
He frowned and looked at the Fourth Hokage. "Grandpa, how's the village... doing now?"
After all, the appearance of Otsutsuki Momoshiki in the village had caused damage no less than the Nine-Tails incident!
He heard that because of the Nine-Tails rampage back then, his father had to carry a lifeti of bla from a young age!
Just as he finished speaking—
"Cough cough cough!"
Everyone's expression froze. They gave awkward, embarrassed laughs and looked away.
"Don't worry, it's not a big problem! I've already explained it!"
However—
That expression...
It made Boruto Uzumaki feel even more guilty. Could it be that... he was the cause of so terrible disaster for Konoha?
Even though he was mischievous, liked staying up late surfing the net, loved playing gas—he never intended to hurt the village.
He took a deep breath and looked at the Fourth Hokage. "Please tell ! If it's bad, I'll leave the village with Sasuke-sensei and go find Otsutsuki Urashiki!"
"...Actually, it's not that serious. The problem... isn't too big."
"Don't lie to , Grandpa! That conflicted expression on your face doesn't look like it's 'not serious' at all! Just tell directly, or I'll keep blaming myself!"
"Well..."
"I'll say it instead!" Just as Minato was hesitating, Yuto looked at Boruto with a grin and said, "It's really not as serious as you think. Because of Otsutsuki Urashiki, the village was already prepared. So the villagers evacuated quickly. There were just so minor injuries and a few buildings destroyed!"
"That's a relief!"
Just as Boruto breathed a sigh of relief—
"As for your issue..." Yuto continued, "Minato has already publicly announced that you went on a rampage because you were addicted to online gas, tried to top up 648 coins, got rejected, and flew into a rage!"
"???"
"Now the whole village is taking online ti managent for kids really seriously!" Yuto sighed dramatically, then looked at Boruto—whose mouth was twitching—and said with a big grin, "Congratulations! With your own efforts, you've pushed the Ninja World's reform for underage ninja internet usage forward! The internet is full of videos of you losing it trying to top-up money. I heard lots of kids in the village are trying to find you! It's a big step for the ninja world!"
"..."
What the hell?!
It's better to say I've got a demon sealed inside which makes the whole village hate !
Boruto's mouth twitched as he turned to look at Sasuke-sensei, who was nodding helplessly. After a mont of hesitation, he said, "Sasuke-sensei, when are we going back? I... I miss ho!"
"..."
"Enough!" Yuto shook his head, looked Boruto up and down, and muttered, "Let's first deal with the Otsutsuki Momoshiki inside your body."
As he said that—
Everyone froze, staring at Yuto in surprise.
"Yuto, you have a way?" Minato looked excitedly at him. "What should we do?"
"I have an idea," Yuto nodded, "But I still need to test it."
His three-tomoe Sharingan had kept evolving, and now he didn't even know what level it had reached—but one thing was certain: it was pretty powerful~
When he hit chakra across Boruto's face, he discovered... he could vaguely sense sothing inside the so-called 'Kama.'
The so-called Kama seed to be a thod by which the Otsutsuki clan could copy themselves, digitize their being, and embed it into another person's body. The person who gets implanted ends up with a black rhombus-shaped mark on their palm—this is Kama.
So, it's kind of like... copying data from one USB drive to another. But this USB is like a virus—it eventually invades and takes over the other USB. The compressed data slowly "unfreezes" over ti, or can be accelerated through combat. When the data is fully unfrozen, the "vessel's" body is replaced with the Otsutsuki's data, and the vessel's own existence is completely erased. The Otsutsuki thus completes their resurrection.
It's kind of like a twisted variant of a Tailed Beast Jinchuriki, except the Tailed Beast just turns the host into a beast completely!
Yuto paused and said, "So I plan to transfer it to another place!"
"Transfer the Kama?" Sasuke was briefly stunned, then frowned. "Others have thought of that too, but it's not so simple. It's limited by the container, and there's no thod for safe transfer! If it fails, Boruto could be in danger!"
"No! My eyes seem to be able to see the unfreezing progress. It's worth a try." Yuto shook his head. "As for the danger... trust , I think I can handle it."
Orochimaru's virtual device seed kind of similar—recording jutsu and maintaining a virtual space through chakra!
If it fails... just use Impure World Reincarnation~ No big deal!
Looking at Boruto, he asked, "So, want to give it a try?"
"I..." Boruto paused, but then nodded firmly. "I want to try! Please!"
"Boruto, you..."
"Grandpa, I'm ready to try it!"
"Alright." Minato saw the clarity in Boruto's eyes, paused slightly, then nodded with a sigh and looked at Yuto seriously. "Then I'll leave it to you, Yuto!"
"In that case, the container..." Sasuke sighed and looked at Yuto. "What kind of vessel do you need?"
"If worst cos to worst," Minato thought for a mont and smiled brightly, "Let do it!"
As soon as he said that—
"No way!"
Everyone panicked and shook their heads.
"You're the Hokage!"
"Let do sothing for Boruto~ Besides, we can't let anyone else take such a dangerous risk!"
"But..."
Just as everyone looked helplessly at Minato's serious expression, about to continue arguing—
"Relax!" Yuto interrupted them and smiled. "I've already found a substitute vessel!"
"???"
"And that is..."
Under everyone's confused gaze—
Yuto pulled out a strange object from his ninja pouch, blinked, and said, "Let him work it off in the virtual space to pay off his debts!"
By then—
Players everywhere will be shouting: "5,000 to bring down Otsutsuki Momoshiki (Urashiki, Kaguya, Isshiki...)! Co if you want, we are just short of one person and we will start!"
Welco to the era of the Great Otsutsuki Dungeon Raids!
