Chapter 36: New Ability

"Swish…"

Inside the room.

Kiyoshi's figure appeared suddenly, though he hadn't actually moved at all.

The wood clone, looking at him with surprise, muttered, "I can see you're here, your actual self, yet I can't touch you…"

"But just now, you definitely made contact with me…" 

With a curious expression, the clone looked at Kiyoshi and asked, "Is this a time-space ability like Kamui?"

"Close," Kiyoshi replied with a light laugh, "but it's more akin to the Rinnegan's Limbo: Border Jail." 

He continued, "Though, you could say it's also a type of space-time ability to some extent."

"Limbo? That's a Rinnegan-level power." 

The wood clone, incredulous, noted, "Your visual prowess far exceeds that of an ordinary Mangekyo Sharingan, but even so, it isn't quite at the level of the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, right?"

"Onamuchi!"

Without keeping him in suspense, Kiyoshi explained with a smile, "This is the dojutsu born from my Mangekyo Sharingan."

Much like Obito's Kamui, his eyes granted him similar abilities, though they worked in a different manner.

"Onamuchi enables me to access a parallel dimension called the 'Netherworld.'"

With his arms crossed, Kiyoshi elaborated, "I can enter this world, partially or completely rendering myself invisible and untouchable by any external attack."

"That's practically Obito's intangibility." the wood clone remarked, raising an eyebrow.

At first glance, it seemed less remarkable than Obito's Kamui. But based on their recent test, the abilities of Onamuchi clearly exceeded this initial impression.

"It's far more than that," Kiyoshi added with a smile. "The truly unstoppable part is that I can launch invisible attacks from the parallel Netherworld, similar to Madara's Limbo."

The Mangekyo Sharingan truly earned its reputation. It reflected his unreachable ambitions, as deep as an abyss.

Of course, there were still limitations.

Currently, he could stay in the Netherworld for no more than ten minutes.

Additionally, unlike the almost undetectable nature of Madara's Limbo: Border Jail, Kiyoshi could still be seen by advanced dojutsu like the Sharingan and Byakugan when in the Netherworld.

Since he hadn't yet figured out how to fully conceal his chakra, sensory-type ninjas could still sense his presence.

However, while in the Netherworld, all external attacks were nullified against him.

Although calling it a "lower-grade Limbo" wouldn't be entirely wrong, Onamuchi had its own advantages.

While Madara's Limbo was powerful, he could only manipulate his shadow clones within the Limbo dimension and couldn't directly enter it himself.

When in danger, he could switch places with a Limbo clone to avoid death, but it still carried risks.

For Kiyoshi, though, it was more like being in an "invincible state."

Moreover, from within the Netherworld, he could launch undetectable attacks at his enemies.

"So, it combines aspects of both Kamui and Limbo…" The wood clone nodded in realization. 

"While it may not reach the full extent of both, it has natural advantages."

"Precisely."

In summary, whether it matched Madara's Rinnegan ability Limbo: Border Jail or not was secondary.

For a Mangekyo-level ability, Kiyoshi was more than satisfied to have this much power.

"Still, I'm curious… just what sort of ability lay in Fugaku's eyes."

Kiyoshi's eyes gleamed with excitement and anticipation as he gazed at the pair of Mangekyo Sharingan that he had yet to absorb.

Currently, even if he devoured another ninja's body, he couldn't directly acquire their Jutsu or memories.

However, if he could develop new forbidden techniques to exploit and steal Jutsu and memories in the future, that might change.

The Yamanaka clan's secret techniques, after all, could read the memories of the deceased and retrieve intelligence.

But for now, that ambition was premature.

Sharingan, on the other hand, was different.

As a Sharingan user, Kiyoshi had a significant chance, given his Wood-Wood Fruit-enhanced powers, to acquire the ability from Fugaku's Mangekyo Sharingan directly.

"Swish! Swish!"

His two extended fingers suddenly transformed into vines, shooting forward.

The vines pierced through the blood-soaked eyes.

"Swish…" Tremendous chakra and powerful visual energy poured into Kiyoshi, absorbed and fused by his Mangekyo Sharingan.

The unique pattern in his eyes spun rapidly.

Yet as Fugaku's Mangekyo Sharingan withered and disintegrated into dust, Kiyoshi's eyes showed no sign of change.

There was no new pattern.

"Did it fail?" asked the wood clone, watching in surprise.

"No, it succeeded."

Kiyoshi clenched his fists, feeling the immense power flooding his vision, as though he could now bend reality to his will.

"My eyes have reached the level of the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan. Even without the use of perfect Yang Release, I won't go blind from overuse anymore."

"As for why the pattern didn't change, that's likely because I didn't directly implant his eyes."

"But that's irrelevant."
