"It's finally finished."

Daiki's voice echoed throughout the wide cavernous training grounds beneath the Hokage mountain. Standing in the centre, his scarlet red eyes traced the mass of inky kanji spreading out from beneath his feet in all directions.

Like a massive winding spider web of sealing characters, they wound throughout the training ground. Across the entirety of the training ground flooring, up the walls, spreading up across even the ceiling above him.

Hundreds upon hundreds of feet, inked black with the kanji drawn for one single seal.

His bloodline usurpation seal.

'I have to admit Daiki, you have truly outdone yourself with this,' Isobu said, an awed tinge to his voice, something he very rarely got to to hear from his partner, 'This is a masterpiece, no less impressive than the Yondaime Hokage's Eight Trigrams Seal he used for to seal my brother.'

His lips quirked up a bit at the honest praise, before he shook his head, "No, i'm not there yet." Daiki denied, in a rare show of humility and humbleness.

This seal, was his crowning achievement so far. Most of his abilities, were taken from other sources using his knowledge. Sure, he worked very very hard for them, and trained himself into the dirt.

But for what was truly his own original get? Only his Dimension Force Seal, and now this were truly of his own creation.

But it was because he was the creator of this technique, this seal, he could see its flaws.

Yes, he had created it.

But…

His eyes traced over the massive, massive amount of inky black sealing kanji he stood in the centre of. It had taken hours, upon hours to lay this seal and get it ready after he finished it, even with the help of shadow clones.

A true master of seals, such as Minato Namikaze could have done laid this seal properly with a tenth of the kanji and size. And one of the grand masters of the Uzumaki clan, could have probably applied it within a few feet at most and have it ready within thirty seconds after learning it.

Yet despite that, he couldn't help but grin, "I've still got so far to go." he mused, truly happy.

It was amazing to know, that monsters existed for every branch of life. It wasn't just monsters of combat he couldn't match like Madara right now, but even the sealing grand masters of the Uzumaki Clan.

The grind truly never ended.

'Only you Daiki,' Isobu chuckled, 'Only you would take in how far you've come, after putting so much effort and work, and be glad you're nowhere close to the top.'

Of course.

After all, how dull would life be if there was no room for him to improve? How pathetic and sad would it be, for there to be a perfected ceiling he hit and never be able to go beyond that?

As much as the monster that was Madara Uchiha terrified him deep down in his core, that he would only ever admit to Isobu. He was also glad that monsters like him existed, and was picture proof that even he could ascend to ever higher heights.

Because a life of pure useless stagnancy, terrified him far more than Madara himself ever would.

True Perfection?

The kind of thing the likes of Orochimaru sought? It disgusted him to his very core. It was absolutely, revolting.

'True perfection, is imperfection.' Daiki thought. Because only the imperfect, could strive for perfection. When one was perfect, there was no way to improve. The grind could not help the perfect.

Once one became perfect, there truly was nothing else. No room for growth, no room for imagination, no room for anything beyond that. There was nothing to strive for, nothing to become excited about in the future.

Perfection was a dead end.

Nothing tangibly perfect, should ever exist in this world.

And if it did, he would kill it.

He let that thought lie for a moment. No, rather than a thought, it was a vow. It surprised Daiki.

How much he truly detested perfection.

Yes, if he ever came across anything truly perfect. He could not allow it to exist in the same world as him. Because if perfection existed for one thing, it could exist for another.

What if it infected others?

What if it infected him?

Bile threatened to rise into his throat as he thought of himself, perfected. Limited. Denied the road of the grind.

Useless.

'Well, I'm glad you're finding out more about yourself,' Isobu cut in, 'Not to burst your bubble though, you quite proudly refer to yourself as a Perfect Jinchuuriki.'

Daiki sighed, "Dude, you ruined my dramatic vibe," he huffed, rolling his eyes. Then he just shrugged and smirked, "Besides, I did say tangible, and that's different anyway. To be a perfect jinchuuriki, doesn't mean we've hit a limit unlike true perfection, it's just a good word to describe how amazing our bond is. If you were a Blastoise, I could mega evolve you without a key stone or a mega stone."

'Yes well maybe in another universe, you're a pokemon trainer and I your starter Squirtle. Of course, I'd be shiny, with perfect IV's, both hidden abilities and tons of unique attacks and egg moves,' Isobu snorted, 'Still, ever the hypocrite huh Daiki?'

He shrugged.

Everyone was a hypocrite to some degree, he was just man enough to admit it. To himself.

And Isobu at least.

He shook his head, putting it out of mind and dropping the topic, "Time to do this." he mused aloud.

Tomorrow morning, the third round of the exams would begin, and with it, the invasion of Konoha. He wanted to be ready for anything and everything that would happen tomorrow.

Crouching down, he unsealed Shisui's pair of sharingan eyeballs, alongside the gill-like tattoo'd skin he'd ripped from Aruami Funato, laying them down before him in the middle of the fuin shiki, atop a simple clean cloth.

He stared at them for a moment, specifically at the dead eyes of Shisui, before rising to his feet silently.

Daiki brought his hands together, clasping them into a ram seal and flared his chakra. An aura of sizzling green chakra burst forth from around him, before slowly falling.

It slipped inside the seal kanji spider webbing around his feet, lighting it up a bright timber green, before spreading rapidly through the entirety of the sealing chain, across the vast cavernous floor, up the walls, across the ceiling.

In moments, the entirety of the private and hidden hokage training grounds, were lit up with glowing green power.

His eyes sharpened, and then-

Daiki let go of the ram seal, flaring a single hand out, chakra burning atop the tips of his fingers, before he crouched down and slammed it into the middle of the sealing scripture at his feet, "Kekkei Sōdatsu: Shinka no Akui - Fuin!" he declared.

Bloodline Usurpation: Malice of Evolution.

The cavernous training ground seemed to shake and rumble as the glowing seal reached its zenith.

And then the chains of glowing green sealing kanji, broke free their tether. They peeled back from the ceiling, the walls and the floor, converging together around him like a tidal wave of enormous green slithering serpents.

And converged.

They wove together like a great tapestry, coiling into a sphere around Daiki as he rose back to his feet. And his vision was consumed by green.

He grit his teeth as he felt like his neck slit open, a searing burn slithering its way through his veins.

And then he had to close his eyes as they followed suit, and burned. Tears of blood sprung forth from his tear ducks, trailing down his cheeks as a warm wet trails.

And yet, a laugh burst free from the teen as strength suffused him. As his muscles surged with strength, as his gaze steamed behind his eyelids.

As his whole world was consumed by timber green.

And then it was over.

It lasted all of ten seconds that felt like an eternity, and before he knew it, the sphere of green around him was gone, and the cavernous training grounds, lit up, now dark and quiet.

He opened his eyes, and had to blink as his vision sharpened to all new levels, "Woah…" Daiki laughed, standing up.

He brought his hands up, feeling his neck. He felt rough skin, and little indents, just like the sealing tattoo upon his palms.

Grinning, he made his way over to the pool of water at the far end of the training ground and peered inside. The first thing he noticed, was his eyes.

Scarlet red as always.

Yet now, with three tomoe lazily spinning in each eye. And atop his neck, on either side of his neck, a trio of black tattoo like markings, shaped like pointed fanged gills.

"Yes!" He pumped his fist with a whoop. He'd done it! He'd taken not only the Sharingan of Shisui Uchiha for himself.

But the Power of Sea Dragon as well. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

'I wanna try something.' he thought giddily. Turning, Daiki held his hand out, fingers extended. Without using a single hand seal, he began moulding his chakra into the water element, and then tried to shape it.

"Water Style:…!" he began, and was surprised himself as his chakra leapt to his command, water surging into existence around his arm, extending over his fingers and outwards, into a long doubled sided sword, "Water Blade."

"Whoa, that was so easy." Daiki breathed out, holding the water blade up and examining it. Sure, before it was already incredible easy, he'd mastered his water element and could mould the blade with a single hand seal.

….But, this went even further beyond that. It was so fast, and he barely put any effort at all into it.

Absolutely, incredible.

He swung his hand casually and watched as a gargantuan crescent blade of churning water bisected the air, gouging chunks not only from the ground, but the ceiling itself that was over a hundred feet above him, and then cut straight through the seal enhanced wall at the other end of the training ground, over two hundred feet away, biting a good few feet deep into it despite the enhancement of the wall.

Holy shit.

Before…he'd had to hack at the wall multiple times from close range for that kind of effect, while overloading the technique with chakra.

'Your water jutsu has increased in strength multiple times over, incredible.' Isobu praised, 'The Power of the Sea Dragon, in the hands of a master of the water element and my jinchuuriki, is capable of this much huh? And this was just one of your weaker water style jutsu, it makes me wonder what your higher tier jutsu such as the Water Dragon will be capable of. With this, you might be enroaching upon the level of your precious Nidaime Hokage.'

Truly, there was no higher praise.

"I'll have to see." he mused. Speaking of the great Tobirama though. He turned back to the pool of water, staring at his reflection again, meeting his own eyes.

Before pumping chakra into his eyes, and watched as the tomoe in his eyes, began to rapidly rotate, before converging together and spreading out, forming a thick black four pointed shuriken around his pupils.

Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan.

Or rather, Daiki's Mangekyou Shinku Sharingan, 'With this, I don't need to worry about Danzo anymore. With this, it has fused with my Shinkugan, making a stronger doujutsu, and it's fully apart of me unlike Danzo.' he mused.

And with it, so much more. Not only did he now have access to Kotoakatsukami, this mangekyou in particular enhanced genjutsu ability. And of course, with it he now had access to the susanoo that Shisui had already awakened before his death, and even the ability to use Izanami and Izanagi.

Not that he would mind you. That was what those extra sharingan eyes Danzo had would be for. And he knew for a fact, Danzo had way more than just those ten in his arm.

Just like Obito, he kept a massive stash of them in case he ever used up the ones he already had.

'After the exams, I'll be paying him a visit.' he mused.

Speaking of the exams though, he crossed his arms, "Status." he stated aloud, and a moment later, the familiar black screen of his status system appeared before him, scarlet red letters reflected back at him.
