4 Ōtsutsuki Kirihara

Other factions of the Starveil Universe never gave something to the mortals... with the exception of the God Alliance and the Sage Clan. Both of them were the most annoying enemies of the Ōtsutsuki Clan, albeit for different reasons.

When it came to the God Alliance, Gods were leeching on mortals, especially on humans by spreading their Faith to the mortals and thus getting stronger through worship.

Sage Clan was a different story, as they often taught mortal races how to harvest Nature Chakra and become "cultivators" in a certain sense.

After the Ōtsutsuki Clan conquered and plundered such Cultivation Origin World, the Sage Clan became our most hated enemy because we were aware of what would happen if such methods became widespread.

The only positive about the entire scenario of Ōtsutsuki Kaguya giving humans of the Elemental Nations access to the Chakra and her son teaching them Ninshu was the fact that they never tapped into the true potential of it.

They were using it in a rather primitive way and while some of them were able to get relatively powerful, they still hadn't found out about energy gathering and had never set foot on the "cultivation aspect" of Chakra.

Still, they were a threat because if somebody discovered it, then they could develop into a fairly powerful and fearsome civilization.

"I will need to check up on the Elemental Nations at a later date, it seems..."

***

The truth was that training sucked...

From the moment I ate the Chakra Fruit, I was being trained in the Shinjutsu by one of the Elders who was specializing in it and mainly because he had the same elemental affinities as me for the Dust Element.

That one was extremely rare in the Ōtsutsuki Clan, so I was put under extensive training. Aside from that, my grandfather was teaching me about theoretical aspects of Shinjutsu and even more advanced forms of Chakra Control, which was annoying.

But on the positive side, I got access to the Celestial Chakra Manual, which was essentially a cultivation method for the Chakra users created by Lord Shibai after our clan robbed the Universe of the Cultivators we invaded.

For the Ōtsutsuki Clansmen, there wasn't anything like the cultivation realms or anything, as we focused only on the Chakra Gathering and increasing its quality and quantity.

Celestial Chakra Manual was helping in that aspect.

Comprehending and using the manual was making easier to consolidate Charka, refine it, and so on.

I was also focusing on mastering my Dōjutsu, namely the Tensei-Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, which I awakened after another twenty years and Senrinjōnegan, where my advance was minimal even after hundred years of training, aside from mastering the basic usage.

And thus, the time flew and I was 250 years old, which felt surreal on the one hand; at the another, it felt only natural.

During the centuries, my strength didn't grow in terms of raw power, but rather I mastered my entire power and my basic abilities.

I was also accomplished in the area of Shinjutsu and Kenjutsu, which was drilled to me by my father because I was rather talented in the aspect of sword-wielding.

Today I would be meeting with my fianceé Ōtsutsuki Kirihara, who was also a member of the Divine Lineage like me.

Actually, she was my cousin, as her father was the elder brother of my mother.

I met her only once when I was a kid and then she departed on a mission to the Western Cosmic Region and was there for more than two hundred years before returning. The marriage was set when I was born because it was important to produce a new generation of the Divine Lineage.

Even though my parents could still have more children, though...

"Hopefully, after this, I will be able to leave the planet and traverse the Universe..."

Through the usage of Senrinjōnegan, I was able to sense that I would gain enormous gains If I went to travel the Universe. The clairvoyant aspect of the Senrinjōnegan was something that already brought me several benefits when I used it.

"I will go first to the Elemental Nations to check on the situation there and use Senrinjōnegan on the planet to see the best course of action."

As I was meditating and resting after another round of training and mastering Dust Shinjutsu Techniques, I suddenly sensed that somebody had landed behind me.

Because all Ōtsutsuki were extremely sensitive to the Chakra and were able to distinguish it easily; I was instantly able to tell that Ōtsutsuki Kirihara had arrived. She was several centuries older than me and had a somehow mature appearance and looked pretty similar to my mother, actually.

Though she looked much sterner and was more developed in her breast department and had the posture of a warrior with her toned muscular physique.

"You have become a training maniac Yakou."

She stated without much emotion... during the time she was on her mission, we often exchanged messages through Extranet.

"And you are as stoic as ever, Kirihara... how was your mission?"

I asked her as she frowned slightly at that.

"Not good... when the Tree was about to ripe; unfortunately, Jashin appeared and destroyed it. Luckily for me, I was still able to harvest some of the Chakra Fruits..."

Jashin was Greater God which was comparable to Tier 3 Ōtsutsuki and was considered very powerful among other Greater Gods.

Not to mention, he was also a mad one, so it seemed that Kirihara had bad luck on her mission.

"Did you hear about that? During my time when I was operating in the Western Cosmic Region on Jashin's Planet, I heard that one of our clansmen went rogue and even gave humans Chakra. I heard that Elders want to dispatch some Ranked Branch Clansmen under someone from the Main Family to investigate it."

This caught my interest, so they already knew about the situation with Kaguya and Isshiki.

"Should we go? This seems interesting and both of us have Senrinjōnegan so we can divine the future to act in the most effective and profitable way."

I instantly used this as an opportunity to go on my first mission and with this, Kirihara would go with me.

Two of us could challenge even some weaker Tier 3 beings and defeat them with our special abilities.
