Chapter 17 - Chapter 17 – Ascension of the Perfect Vessel

Decades of research, experimentation, and careful planning had finally culminated in something extraordinary. My lab had grown into a fortress of science and magic, hidden beneath a mountain, filled with the results of my tireless experimentation. The years had granted me influence in the human world, control over multiple companies, a nearly limitless fortune, and recognition in the supernatural realm. Yet none of that mattered compared to what I had finally achieved.

I had created the perfect vessel.

Using White Zetsu as a base—already immortal, adaptive, and biologically superior—I had fused the DNA of the greatest shinobi I could find with the divine blood of the Big Three's children. The result was a body that would be my ultimate form, combining the best of humanity, divinity, and shinobi prowess.

The DNA I had carefully selected and integrated granted me:

Hashirama Senju's Wood Release: I could manipulate wood to create enormous structures, dragons, golems, and even absorb chakra. My regeneration rivaled the "Creation Rebirth" technique, my stamina seemed infinite, and Sage Mode enhanced my physical and spiritual attributes beyond comprehension.

Madara Uchiha's Fire Affinity and Uchiha Bloodline: Peak ocular powers, enhanced chakra, and fire techniques that could decimate entire battlefields.

Itachi Uchiha's Genjutsu Talent and Blood Enhancement: My blood became thicker, my chakra reserves increased, and my mental manipulation capabilities reached a terrifying level. I could bend reality in the minds of others with only a glance.

Obito Uchiha's Kamui & Intangibility: I could phase through attacks, teleport myself or others into my personal dimension, and maneuver around obstacles with supreme tactical advantage.

Itachi Uchiha's Susanoo: A massive humanoid avatar with ethereal spirit weapons—the Totsuka Blade, the Yata Mirror, and Yasaka Magatama—granting both near-invincibility and unparalleled offensive power.

And from the demigods of the Big Three:

Zeus lineage: Lightning and weather manipulation, the ability to summon storms and bend electricity to my will.

Poseidon lineage: Wind manipulation, flight, water mastery, and healing through oceanic energy.

Hades lineage: Control over the dead, knowledge of subterranean realms, minor earth manipulation, and shadow influence.

With a deep breath, I activated my eternal Mangekyō Sharingan. Its red brilliance flared across my eyes as my brain processed centuries of combat experience, experimentation, and divine insight. My two techniques—Tsukuyomi and Kamui—were ready. I could trap enemies in illusions, manipulate time in their minds, phase through attacks, teleport across dimensions, and strike with the overwhelming power of Susanoo.

I shed my old body like a worn-out garment, transferring my consciousness into this perfect vessel with the Living Corpse Reincarnation.

The results were instantaneous. I felt power beyond measure coursing through me:

True Immortality & Regeneration: I could heal instantly, shed my skin to repair damage, and recover from injuries that would kill gods.

Body Modification & Absorption: I could absorb chakra through touch, extend limbs, and integrate abilities from others at will.

Advanced Ninjutsu & Science: Edo Tensei mastery, summoning colossal snakes like Manda, and manipulating clones in combat or experimentation.

Combat Prowess: Speed, reflexes, and destructive power unmatched by mortals, demigods, or even most divine beings.

Looking in the mirror of my laboratory, I saw myself as I had once been in Boruto's Orochimaru form, yet far beyond it—a fusion of divine blood, shinobi perfection, and decades of intellect and experience.

For the first time in centuries, I smiled without reservation. I was no longer limited by mortality, nor by a single set of talents. I was the culmination of everything I had ever studied, stolen, or inherited.

The world—both mortal and supernatural—would never see someone like me again.

And I intended to reshape it on my terms.
