Rebirth of the Ōtsutsuki: Yash's Path to Godhood

Chapter 21: Seed of Divinity – Journey to the Root World

---

Location: Border of the Spirit Realm – Gateway to the Root World

Time: One Week After Crimson Library

The divine seed pulsed in Yash's palm.

Forged at the dawn of chakra, the Seed of the Ōtsutsuki Tree shimmered with chaotic power—part relic, part living core. It craved soil untouched by corruption. It needed to be planted—but not on Earth.

> "The Root World," Shiome had whispered, "is the ancestral womb. A realm of timeless energy. Plant the seed there, and it will awaken powers lost to even the Sage of Six Paths."

Now, Yash stood before the gateway, hovering above a crater where time didn't flow properly.

Hakari held his arm.

Sarada scanned the rift.

Lunara kept silent—her body still recovering from the eclipse link.

> "You're sure about this?" Hakari asked.

Yash nodded. "If the Divine Tree blooms again, it'll answer the question this world keeps hiding: why were the Ōtsutsuki really created?"

They stepped through.

The world shattered into colors that didn't exist.

Time unraveled, then rebuilt itself around them.

The Root World appeared: a sprawling field of crystal plains, skyless yet bright, and wind that whispered memories. Ruins of titanic bones—Ōtsutsuki ancestors—lay half-buried beneath glowing vines.

Yash breathed deep. His power surged.

Here, he was closer to what he was becoming.

And then…

> "So... you really were reborn."

A voice. Familiar. Soft. Dangerous.

A woman stepped out from behind a column of light.

She was older than him by appearance, yet ageless—long lavender hair, eyes golden with tear-shaped pupils, and markings that matched his own crest.

She wore a battle kimono, elegant and tattered, with the sigil of the Original Clan on her back.

Yash's heart stopped.

He didn't know her—but his soul did.

---

> "I was your wife once, Yash," she said. "Before your soul was scattered."

> "My name… is Seira Ōtsutsuki. The First Queen. And I've come to take you back."

Lunara staggered.

> "She… feels like a goddess. But her chakra—it overlaps yours."

Hakari's tails bristled.

Sarada activated her Mangekyō.

Yash stepped forward, stunned.

> "If we were married… why don't I remember you?"

Seira's face twisted into a smile. A lonely one.

> "Because the gods ripped you apart when you tried to create a world of free will. You died in my arms… and now that you've returned, I will not lose you again."

> "You will not plant that seed. It will awaken the Origin King."

---

She raised her hand. A blade of condensed time formed in it.

> "If you insist… I will test if this version of you is worthy of me."
