71. Evolution
[Are you alright?] Kurama had seen Tomoka writhing on the floor for the better part of an hour.
‘I think I am, can't really tell’ Tomoka felt drained, her throat parched and sore from screaming.
[Call me crazy but you are becoming more and more reckless by the day. What would you do if your eyes got messed up… actually, they aren’t messed up, are they?] Kurama couldn’t tell since Tomoka kept them closed.
‘Perhaps I have become reckless but I need to become stronger no matter what’ With that said, Tomoka opened her eyes. They burned with the determination to protect those she cherished.
Moments later she realized that her vision felt somewhat weird. It was clearer, more detailed. Not only that but she felt like there was more to this new state of vision. Taking a pocket mirror she had carried for these experiments she examined her eyes.
To her and Kurama’s surprise, her eyes had indeed changed. Now instead of only one extra pupil appearing and disappearing from time to time there were two. Feeling the flow of chakra inside her eyes she was even more surprised.
The gnashing maw made by her chakra inside her eyes had changed. Now aside from the gnashing teeth she could see a strange construct floating where the right eye of the beast should be. The symbol looked like an extremely elaborate hourglass in the shape of the symbol of infinity. Its sands flowing unimpeded in both directions through the construct while it spun in all directions and none at the same time.
Tomoka felt awe as she inspected the construct. A moment later she had to stop as a headache began building as she tried to comprehend what she was seeing. Opening her eyes again she began inspecting her surroundings.
The first weird thing she noticed was the afterimage moving objects would have. However, she soon realized that calling them afterimages was wrong. After all, the image didn’t follow after the object but instead it was the other way around.
Looking outside she noticed a small butterfly flapping its wings. She could see with perfect clarity how the butterfly’s wings moved following the image before them. Her senses were telling her that those images weren’t real but, and this was a big but, they would become real.
“Is this… future sight?” After muttering that it was like a piece of a puzzle slotted itself in the adequate place. Her mind began working and she realized that she could see a total of two seconds into the future. Her kinagan had evolved! It no longer ate only chakra but it now also ate time. It could eat time up to two seconds into the future showing her what would happen!
“This is fucking ridiculous!” The sharingan could predict the movements of things through complex calculations but her eyes could straight up ignore that and see what would happen. Tomoka felt like she was cheating somehow.
[Well, your eyes just became ten times crazier] Kurama’s comment had shook Tomoka out of her stupor. He was right, with a new set of pupils doing their thing her eyes began even weirder. However, she didn’t mind.
‘I wonder what the byakugan could provide’ A deranged and creepy smile appeared on tomoka’s face. Considering that the sharingan which could calculate a possible future had given her future sight, then the byakugan would probably give her something like clairvoyance.
‘How about the rinnegan? Though that is supposed to be just an evolved version of the sharingan’ Tomoka felt elated knowing that her eyes could advance in such a weird way.
[So what now. Are you going to try and steal a byakugan now? And you call that old man an eye thief] Kurama couldn’t help but tease Tomoka. In reality he didn’t care about what she was doing. He hated the Uchiha with a passion except for Nozomi. As for the Hyuga, he didn’t care either.
‘That is going to be a bit harder. The Hyuga are a bit smarter and they have a seal on their foreheads to destroy their eyes if they are killed or someone tries to steal their eyes. I will probably have to study fuinjutsu and formulate a way to disable the seal’
[Well, you do you, I am going to take a nap]
