Title: Evolution…

….

I look at my monstrous appearance with my byakugan, all over my head there are sharingans  and my hair has all fallen due to the stress my body is due to the mass of Bloodline Limits inside it. There are even some strands of hair around where there are no eyes on the top of my head.

Damn, I look really ugly, as expected my body is already reaching the limit. No one can grow infinitely… not even Kaguya or anyone… there is a limit and your own cells start to die out, unable to handle your own power. But since this has been already predicted, I have made counter measures against this, after all I don't plan to stop growing stronger… like ever, omnipotence isn't something that one can just get without any work.

Anyway, my ugly appearance can easily be altered. Plus even if it wouldn't be fixed, if it gave me a significant power boost I wouldn't necessarily care. After all, what is appearance worth if you have the power to do whatever you want. You want a beautiful woman… just take her. No need to ask or care what her thoughts are. Someone despises you because of your appearance… that is easy, just kill them. Why would I care about what others think of them, if it doesn't give me an advantage...

*sigh* 

But still… as I lie down on the medical and my clones look over me I can't help but think about the harsh road that I had to walk to get here. Thankfully I had the will to never falter on my goals… now I am powerful… I can confidently say that at least. I obviously not always made the best decisions, but I always took the best possible decision with the knowledge I had at the time. So now I am the most powerful person in all of the elemental nations, soon I will kill the Daimyo and all of his sons, putting MY son with Shiori in there.

I put my hand in my chest..

*puchi*

My fingers sink inside my flesh easily, as they sink further inside my flesh, my hand sinks deep up to my wrist. I pull out the red cube and throw it towards one of my clones and I nod at him. 

My pain tolerance really has gotten monstrous, I can handle so much pain and don't even flinch now. I comparison to my first life...

The clones start putting tubes on me, filling my body with nutrients, giving it the necessary proteins for growth and healing. My monstrous body does the rest as it immediately started releasing steam, already in a state of pre healing.

Slowly one of my shadow clones controls the cube as the fuinjutsu starts rotating around it. Slowly a strange energy is created by the cube and..

*fwosh*

Like a blast the energy flows into me… I can immediately feel the changes in my body. I wince a little, but the pain isn't that bad. All of my body hair starts falling and my skin starts cracking, black oily sweat comes out of my skin, my body starts getting thinner and thinner. Until it seems just like skin and bones, even the hard build muscles deteriorate.

This cube has many abilities of the countless treasures that it has absorbed but its main ability is… EVOLUTION… IT FORCES THE CELLS OF THE BODY TO EVOLVE!!

With the soul of the Zero Tails as a conductor, it is in a way… something that forces the body to evolve to its perfect form available to it.

Slowly my muscles start building up, at a speed that is visible to the normal eye. Like worms crawling below my skin, my body starts healing and repairing it… black blood flows from my eyes, nose and mouth.

One of the clones nodges another and says. "This is gross."

The other just gives him a side glance… well more like a glare as he says. "Shut up."

The other clone looks a little down and nods. "Just trying to lighten up the mood."

"Well you are doing a sh*tty job at it. What if we die. Don't detract us anymore, either shut up or get out, you are an eyesore."

….

-General POV-

It takes two hours for the procedure to be finished. At the end of it, Yami is surrounded by shed skin. He smiles at this, he has an extremely pale skin as if it is painted with white, he also has no hair at all on his body.

'Sh*t… I don't even look human anymore.' He then mentions one of his clones to stab him.

They oblige and…

*fwosh*

The kunai… is stuck on the strong skin, the clone pushes a little more and is finally able to draw a little blood. 

Yami smirks at the results…

'The Evolution Cube… seems to be as useful as expected. This is the current limit of my current body.' Contemplates Yami, he just dispelses all of his clones. He gets up and senses that his chakra has grown exponentially, his natural body is beyond what is imaginable for a normal human. Chakra is miraculous and has many different jutsu that can be used with it… that you can say that the techniques are endless. Evolution is something that is possible, especially with the Zero Tail's soul who can create dark chakra which forces change in one's body.

Yami simply closes his eyes and takes a deep breath. Slowly his bald head is filled with black hair and the eyes are all dragged on the inside of his skull.  Slowly under his skin he creates a type of exoskeleton. His skin colour changes and his face returns back to normal, he can manipulate every single cell on his body.

'Can I even be physically called a human anymore?' Contemplates Yami, his body already works so differently from a different human that scientists would LOVE to dissect  him. 

Especially his cells, they have an even stronger vitality than Hashirama Cells… so the newly called 'Yami Cells' are even harder to integrate with someone else. Of course his body is even better now, his cells can handle his own energy now. Though he won't be getting any new Bloodlines, he doesn't want a cellular breakdown yet. 

'I just need to get myself some Otsutsuki Body and I will be golden.' Thinks Yami, wondering how their bodies will react with the Evolution Cube.

….

....

Just like this, two months pass and Yami is currently on his office, Inami, the Yamanaka secretary of his is under his table, with his di*k in her mouth.

*slurp*

Yami has his eyes closed and is watching his first life's memories like a movie. He is watching the Avengers Movie… well… more like rewatching.

Suddenly the door to his office is opened and he can immediately determine who it is by using his Byakugan. It is a young Anko Mitarashi, she seems sad as she finally says. "Yami -sama… Orochimaru has deserted."

Yami just nods at this, Anko was his spy against Orochimaru, so she isn't really badly affected as she was during canon when Orochimaru left. 

Inami stopped sucking him off once she noticed that someone else was in the room feeling nervous. 

But Yami just mentions toward her to continue, and she is unsure but still follows Yami's orders.

"I see, just send a squad to hunt him down." Says Yami casually. Not really caring about Orochimaru. He already had dozens of spies amongst Orochimaru's ranks. Orochimaru is a genius but Yami is so far along in his own game that to him someone like Orochimaru is just another pawn that moves accordingly to him.

….

Two weeks later in a certain unidentified  cave. Corpses of Konoha Anbu are all around the place. Orochimaru is covered in blood and is breathing a little heavily, though there seems no visible injury on his body.

Still he grimaces a little. 'They used acidic poison. If I wasn't so knowledgeable about poisons I would have actually died. I really need to develop the Curse Mark faster so I will no longer be worried about things like this.'

He then frowns as he looks at the carnage around him. *tch* 'I hate Yami, that arrogant BASTARD, by sending just these five Jounin level Anbu, he pretty much told me that I am free to go… THAT FU*KER.'

Orochimaru rages more as he punches the wall next to him. But suddenly he hears an almost quiet sound that if it wasn't so quiet he wouldn't have heard…

*fsssst*

'EXPLOSION TAGS'

*BOOOOOOM*

That is when the cave immediately caves in on itself.

….

AUTHOR NOTE:

Yami has outsmarted a genius like Orochimaru every step of the way. Orochimaru is smart, but Yami has future knowledge as his advantage.🤣
