Konoha: Naruto From a Wolf

Chapter 213 [Otsutsuki] and [Sacred Tree]

Hidden Leaf Village.

Nara Shikamaru continued to interrogate Amado. The battle had begun. He must get as much information about Otsutsuki Ishiki as possible in the shortest possible time.

Provide more help for the Seventh Generation and Uchiha Sasuke to defeat their enemies.

"What does it mean?" Nara Shikamaru asked, "Plant [Sacred Tree] and then get [Chakra Fruit]..."

"What does Shell's plan have to do with Boruto?"

Zhi~

Amado took a drag on his cigarette and said calmly, "I have said before that if you want to plant the [Sacred Tree], you must use the [Ten-Tails] as the sapling of the Sacred Tree."

"After planting, if you want the sapling to grow vigorously and produce chakra fruits, you must let the [Ten-Tails] eat a living [Otsutsuki]."

"In other words, one of the two-person Otsutsuki clan team is destined to be eaten as a sacrifice?" Nara Shikamaru was surprised.

"Yes." Amado nodded slightly, "One person is eaten to provide nutrients for the [Sacred Tree]; the other guards the growth of the [Sacred Tree] until it bears [Chakra Fruit]."

"Probably, Otsutsuki who became the sacrifice will use the wedge to reincarnate."

"So you need to prepare the [device] needed for resurrection in advance, digitize yourself in advance, and put it into the body of the [device] to wait for resurrection."

"I see..." Shikamaru looked slightly confused, "Everything is explained."

"According to what Sasuke said, Otsutsuki Ishiki came to this planet together with Otsutsuki Kaguya." Shizune asked, "At that time, they also planned to use the method you just mentioned to plant [Sacred Trees] on this planet.

?"

"That was the original plan...at least that's what Yishi thought." Amado blew out a puff of smoke.

"From their point of view, Otsutsuki Kaguya, who is one level lower, should have been the sacrifice to support the growth of the sacred tree."

"But for some unknown reason, Otsutsuki Kaguya suddenly rebelled, attacked and wounded Otsutsuki Ishiki, and disrupted the entire plan."

"With the existence of wedge, why did Otsutsuki Iski become what it is now?" Nara Shikamaru was puzzled.

"The reason is very simple." Amado said, "After being attacked by Kaguya Otsutsuki, Ishiki's physical condition has never been weaker. It can even be said to be on the verge of death."

"And carving the [wedge] was a very labor-intensive and physical task. He had no energy left at that time."

"At this moment, a traveling monk happened to pass by him. You also know this traveling monk."

"Cixian!" Kawaki said through gritted teeth.

"That's right." Amado confirmed his answer, "The weak Yi Shi had to live in Ci Xian's body - like a parasite, waiting for an opportunity."

"It was only later that he carved the mark of [Chun] into Ci Xian's body."

"Going back to the original topic, what does Boruto mean to the Shell Organization?" Amado continued.

"Due to Kaguya's betrayal, Ishiki had to parasitize Ci Xian's body. With no choice, Ishiki could only [plant] the sacred tree by himself."

"...In other words, if you want the [Sacred Tree] to grow, Ishikki can only use itself as the 'nutrient' for the Ten-Tails?"

"Yes." Amado sat back in his chair, "Because there is no other Otsutsuki, he is the only one."

"Ke's original plan was to make Ci Xian, who had transformed into Otsutsuki, become a sacrifice; and Ishiki was to be resurrected through the wedge on Kawaki's body."

"Because apart from him, there is no more suitable candidate."

"But!" Amado changed the subject, "The appearance of Boruto changed the entire plan."

"Compared to the unhealthy and dying Otsutsuki, the young and healthy Otsutsuki is obviously more suitable to become the 'nutrient' of the [Sacred Tree]."

"Am I right?"

"A few months ago, Boruto was wedged into a wedge by Momoshiki. As long as his wedge is completely thawed and turned into Otsutsuki, he can replace Ji Xian and become the sacrifice of the [Ten-Tails], right?"

Feeling the other party's provocation, Nara Shikamaru followed his train of thought and told the result.

Amado smiled slightly and continued, "Actually, the [Sacred Tree] may or may not bear [Chakra Fruit]."

"Just like ordinary orange trees, high-quality fruit trees will produce high-quality fruits, and high-quality [sacred trees] will produce high-quality [Chakra Fruits]."

"The quality of [Chakra Fruit] is directly linked to the sacrifice."

"Is this why Sasuke thinks Boruto will be a breakthrough?" After understanding the relationship between Otsutsuki and the sacred tree, Nara Shikamaru finally understood why Sasuke chose to bring Boruto with him.

"But this alone is not enough to defeat Otsutsuki Iski, right?"

"Who knows?" Amado is very open-minded, "Anyway, we can only let nature take its course."

Several people here were either shocked or worried, but as Amado said, they could only choose to believe in the Seventh Generation and could do nothing.

The hole in your heart can only be filled by wedge...

Kawaki looked at his empty palms and gritted his teeth secretly.

When he saw Amado's attitude of showing that the matter had nothing to do with him, he suddenly became angry.

"Can you tell me how far things have gone according to your expectations? Ah!"

"..." Amado glanced at him and said nothing.

"You bastard! You're talking!" Kawaki suddenly got angry and grabbed Amado's collar.

"I'm curious, what are you worried about?" Amado's expression remained calm.

"Is it hatred of one's own powerlessness? Or is it the sense of loss of losing Wei?"

"Bastard!" Hearing this, Kawaki recalled the grievances he had with him when he was in the Shell Organization, raised his fist, and wanted to take revenge all at once.

My body was transformed by this guy!

And, without my own consent!

"Kawaki, stop!" Seeing this, Nara Shikamaru couldn't continue to watch the fire from the shore, and quickly used the shadow imitation technique to control him.

"I can understand how you feel." Amado straightened his sleeves, "The freedom I regained and the bonds I established are on the verge of collapse in an instant. The distress and self-blame are meaningless."

"Maybe I can give you some help..."

…

Different space.

Looking at Boruto who placed the kunai on his neck, Otsutsuki Ishiki frowned slightly, "What do you mean?"

"Want to threaten me in this way?"

"If you think I can't do it, you are wrong." Boruto threatened sternly, "From the moment I joined the battle, I was prepared to die."

Whoosh!

A flying thunder god kunai fell behind Ishiki.

Otsutsuki Isshiki was still thinking about who lost the kunai so badly.

A figure covered in black lines suddenly appeared behind him.

He swept his legs with terrifying force and landed on him, directly kicking him dozens of miles away.

The remaining aftermath directly caused the ground below to sink by more than a foot.

Third update...
