Other world chimera [Naruto fanfic]

105. To blame



105. To blame

As the purpleish energy entered Tomoka’s eye she could feel it fighting her own energies. The chakra construct in her eyes began madly biting the tiny amount of energy as it reformed into a snake. 

The snake, like a slippery eel, moved around avoiding Tomoka’s chakra construct as it wreaked havoc wherever it went. Because of this Tomoka’s cheeks were stained with blood as her eyes began to bleed. 

‘Would you look at that, I was right…this hurts a lot’ 

[Then why aren’t you stopping!? Are you a masochist or something?] Kurama’s lips were twitching as he saw Tomoka taking in more and more of the purplish energy. 

‘No, I am not a masochist. However, I am sure my body is far more resilient and adaptable than Kumoki’s. Healing her could be useful for the future.’ 

As Tomoka continued to take more and more of the nasty energy the energy snake grew in size. However, unlike what Kurama expected, instead of dealing more damage to Tomoka it dealt less. Her body was hard at work using the abundance of natural energy around to heal itself. 

The more damage the snake dealt, the more Tomoka had to heal and the more her body would adapt. It took a while but at some point the snake’s nimble movements through the girl's body became rough and arduous. As if it was trying to swim through tar.

‘See I was right. It won’t be long until I get rid of this thing.’

[Maybe but you look like shit right now.] The fox had a point. Tomoka’s eyes were bloodshot to the point her sclera looked scarlet red. Her eyes, nose, ears, and mouth had bled a river. Some segments of Tomoka’s skin had a poisonous shade of purple to it. 

‘Meh, minor wound, I will be as good as good in a while.’

[And I am the one that is called a monster.] Kurama, couldn’t help but sigh at the unfairness of the world. 

Not minding the fox’s words any longer, Tomoka could do nothing but resist the urge to scream her lungs out from the pain she was under. Thankfully the energy snake wouldn’t last much longer as her Kinagan’s energy construct began tearing into it. A while later Tomoka had finally destroyed and absorbed the damned thing.      

‘I sure hope this has made me more resilient to poisons. Otherwise I will be very angry’ 

[You did this to yourself so there is nobody else to blame.]

‘That is where you are wrong foxy. If the internet has taught me anything, it is that there is always someone you can blame if you try hard enough.’ Saying this Tomoka couldn’t help but remember some of her memories. 

In the past she had been criticized a lot for an invention that was meant to be used for peaceful methods. How was she supposed to know that a portable high power laser fueled by a high power energy generator of her design would be used as a weapon when it was meant for use in the medical field? Yes, it could blast through a ten inch thick plate of steel at its maximum output but that was besides the point. 

Having finished going down memory lane, Tomoka used her chakra to check her body’s condition. As expected all wounds had been healed. Not only that but she realized a similar energy to that of the snake was now flowing lazily through her body. If she had to guess, Oditomnia had not only adapted her to resist the energy but even produce it. 

“Tomoka-sama, are you alright?” Kumoki for her part felt great. That damned poison had been wreaking havoc in her body for the last century. Now that she was freed from its influence she felt like dancing. 

“I am fine, though I must admit I would rather not do that again.” 

“Certainly. Either way, you have my utmost and deepest gratitude. If you ever need my assistance I will heed your call, this I promise.” It was the least Kumoki could do for the one that rid her of that torture. It wouldn’t have killed her, nor would it have lasted forever. However, at the rate her body was getting rid of it she would need to deal with it for another four hundred years or so. 

“Then I will count on you. With that said, it's about time I take my leave. After All, I have places to be, people to kill, the usual.”
