339. The Third Divine Tree Fruit
🕑 Added 2025-05-13 09:48:41 +0000 UTC
Ōtsutsuki Kaguya immediately activated the Rinne-Sharingan on her forehead upon hearing Hanekawa’s words.
An invisible shockwave erupted, flattening all nearby vegetation.
Hanekawa raised an eyebrow.
After consuming two Divine Tree fruits, Kaguya’s aura alone was terrifying—even before she made a move.
Ōtsutsuki Urashiki’s expression hardened, his earlier rage replaced by cold calculation.
He had realized he’d been sent back in time.
Though Kaguya and Hanekawa were weaker now compared to the future, they were still formidable—especially since he was already injured.
Crane Mode!
Urashiki’s body twisted as he transformed.
His Byakugan turned gold, a golden Rinnegan opened on his forehead, and black markings spread across his face.
His hair elongated into bird-like horns, and his legs morphed into black avian limbs.
This was Urashiki’s strongest form.
But before he could fully adjust—
"Eighty Gods Vacuum Fists!"
Kaguya’s attack landed.
A single punch tore through space—followed by countless more, sealing Urashiki in a storm of blows.
"How the hell did she eat a second Divine Tree fruit?!"
Urashiki blocked desperately, his mind racing.
As someone who had consumed one himself, he knew Kaguya’s power was abnormal.
The only explanation? Two fruits.
But that was impossible.
Even for the Ōtsutsuki, Divine Tree fruits were priceless—requiring a millennium to mature and the sacrifice of an entire planet’s life force.
Yet Kaguya, a branch family member, had somehow eaten two—while Earth remained unharmed?!
Just then—
"What?!"
Urashiki’s body locked up.
Time itself reversed.
His transformation unraveled, forcing him back to his base form.
"A time-based dōjutsu?!"
He’d never seen Hanekawa use this in the future—and now, he’d fallen for it.
Hanekawa smirked.
This was his S-Rank Trait: Time Master—rewinding a target’s state by three seconds.
"Damn you!"
Panicked, Urashiki swung his red fishing rod.
"Amatsumikaboshi!"
Countless hooks materialized, flooding the sky with crimson light.
But Kaguya shattered them all with a single punch.
Urashiki, now stuck in his weaker form, barely dodged—
Only for a black cube to fly from his hand.
"Time Freeze!"
White mist erupted, encasing Kaguya in stasis.
But before Urashiki could relax—
CRACK.
Kaguya’s sheer chakra was breaking the seal.
No ability was absolute—everything relied on chakra potency.
And right now, Kaguya was stronger.
Urashiki’s face paled. He tried to re-enter Crane Mode—
Then froze.
Hanekawa was gone.
"Where—?!"
"Earth Style: Earth Core!"
The ground lurched, a stone pillar launching Urashiki into the air.
Hanekawa emerged from below, snatching the black cube Urashiki had dropped.
"You bastard!"
Urashiki’s scream cut off as Kaguya broke free, her eyes murderous.
"All-Killing Ash Bones."
Two gray spikes shot from her palms.
Urashiki’s Byakugan shifted to blue Rinnegan—
His body disintegrated into paper cranes, dodging the lethal attack.
He reappeared nearby—
Only for forests to erupt beneath him.
"Wood Style: Deep Forest Emergence!"
Branches wove into a net, blocking his escape.
Urashiki switched to red six-tomoe Rinnegan.
"Yomotsu Hirasaka!"
A black portal opened beneath him—
But Hanekawa blinked in front of him using Kamui.
"Time Stop."
Urashiki’s body locked mid-air.
"How?!"
Hanekawa’s S-Rank Trait: I Am Myth—freezing time within three meters.
Kaguya didn’t miss her chance.
"All-Killing Ash Bones."
Two spikes pierced Urashiki’s heart.
"AAAAAGH!"
His body began dissolving into light.
Hanekawa followed up with a Sage Art: Super Strength punch—
BOOM!
Blood sprayed as Urashiki’s torso caved in.
But the Ōtsutsuki were nigh-immortal.
Roaring, Urashiki broke free from the time stop, transforming back into paper cranes to evade death.
He reappeared, grievously wounded—
A fist-sized hole in his chest, blood soaking his robes.
His regeneration was slowly healing him, but the damage was severe.
"Tch."
Urashiki panted, gripping his fishing rod.
His Crane Mode was his trump card—but Hanekawa’s time rewind made it useless.
No Crane Mode = no chance of winning.
Even escaping was impossible with time freeze.
"Then… I’ll gamble!"
Time abilities were broken, but they drained chakra.
Hanekawa couldn’t spam them.
Urashiki forced himself back into Crane Mode—
But Hanekawa grabbed him.
"Kaguya—Mount Myōboku!"
FLASH!
They vanished.
Hanekawa had left a Flying Thunder God mark during their earlier clash.
Kaguya followed via Yomotsu Hirasaka.
"DIE!"
Urashiki, now fully transformed, unleashed his strongest attack:
"Amatsumikaboshi: Mikogami!"
Purple energy surged like a tsunami, forming a gigantic oarfish that lunged at Hanekawa.
"Shinra Tensei!"
Hanekawa’s Almighty Push clashed with the attack—
But the force sent him skidding back.
He retreated to Kaguya’s side.
"That… that’s the DIVINE TREE?!"
Urashiki’s voice trembled as he spotted the colossal tree in the distance.
"What are you planning?!"
Hanekawa smiled.
"Making you fertilizer."
"NO!"
Ōtsutsuki were immortal—but only if they had a vessel prepared.
Being fed to the Divine Tree without one meant true death.
Urashiki opened another portal—
But he knew they wouldn’t let him flee.
"Amatsumikaboshi: Ryūgū!"
Reality twisted.
A sea of purple chakra formed, and from it rose a leviathan—a monstrous oarfish resembling a dragon.
It slammed toward them with world-ending force.
"Sage Art: Wood Style—True Several Thousand Hands!"
Behind Hanekawa, a thousand-armed Kannon statue materialized—taller than the Divine Tree itself.
Its countless palms stacked together, blocking the oarfish’s charge.
The outer layers shattered, but the attack stalled.
"NO! NO—!"
Urashiki’s scream wasn’t from the clash—
But from Kaguya’s next move.
"Infinite Tsukuyomi."
The moon descended, morphing into a gigantic Rinne-Sharingan.
Injured and exhausted, Urashiki fell under the genjutsu instantly.
Kaguya flicked her wrist.
The Divine Tree’s roots surged, engulfing Urashiki.
By the time he broke free, he was already inside the tree.
"GGGRAAAAH!"
His chakra violently ripped away, his body crumbling.
The Divine Tree convulsed like a pregnant woman in labor—Urashiki’s last struggles.
"Will it hold?" Hanekawa asked, breathing heavily.
"Yes."
Kaguya flooded the tree with her chakra, suppressing Urashiki’s resistance.
"His memories," Hanekawa suddenly said.
He wanted to see the future Urashiki came from.
The Divine Tree spat out a glowing orb.
Hanekawa absorbed it—
Images flashed:
Urashiki, Momoshiki, and Kinshiki arriving on the moon.
Kaguya and Hanekawa ambushing them.
Hanekawa using "Karasuki" to send Urashiki back in time.
"So I was right."
1. He’d orchestrated Urashiki’s time travel.
2. The Ōtsutsuki trio had landed on the moon first—targeting Ōtsutsuki Toneri.
They could set a trap there in advance.
"How long until the fruit ripens?" Hanekawa asked.
"One month. He’s eaten a Divine Tree fruit before—his energy is dense."
"Good."
Hanekawa would have Tsukihime return the tailed beasts to the tree.
He was eager to see what power the third fruit would grant him.
"Ōtsutsuki travel in pairs," Kaguya warned. "There’s another."
"Don’t worry."
Hanekawa tapped her forehead, sharing Urashiki’s memories.
Even Kaguya looked surprised.
Meanwhile, three lines appeared before Hanekawa:
[S-Rank Trait: Crane Hunter]
[Condition: Defeat Ōtsutsuki Urashiki.]
[Effect: Free switching between blue and gold Rinnegan.]
Hanekawa grinned.
Crane Mode’s power would be a fine addition.
