As a transmigator, one should naturally remain calm in the face of anything; this is the basic quality of every transmigator…
But for Bó Yáng, he simply couldn't calm down!
Just a second ago, he watched helplessly as he was ambushed and severely wounded from behind, then his immobile body was thrown into the mouth of a giant monster…
"Am I going to die now?"
Bó Yáng looked at the monster's mouth, getting closer and closer, and thought sadly.
Crack!
The monster's mouth closed heavily, and Bó Yáng watched as half of his body was immediately bitten off, and the severed lower half was directly swallowed by the monster.
Just as Bó Yáng thought he was about to be completely swallowed by the monster, his upper body suddenly shrunk to particle size and successfully escaped through the monster's teeth.
Bó Yáng, now particle-sized, floated away quickly with the airflow, and as he left, he looked back and saw the face of the person who ambushed him from behind and the full appearance of the monster that tried to eat him.
The attacker had pale skin and long blue-white hair; she was beautiful and delicate, with pure Byakugan eyes, no eyebrows above her eyes, but rather white protrusions resembling compound eyes…
"Ōtsutsuki Kaguya???"
Bó Yáng stared blankly at the woman with the exceptionally distinct facial features in his sight. He couldn't believe it—had he transmigrated into the Naruto world? And it seemed the time he transmigrated to was too far back…
"That monster with Ten-Tails must undoubtedly be the Ten-Tails…"
Bó Yáng glanced again at the monster that had swallowed half of his body, confirming once more that he had indeed transmigrated into the Naruto world.
Whoosh whoosh~
The wind blew from afar, slowly carrying the particle-shaped Bó Yáng away, gradually moving him away from Ōtsutsuki Kaguya and the agitated Ten-Tails.

"Strange, why don't I feel any pain?"
Bó Yáng, in his particle form, drifted aimlessly like tiny dust with the wind. Only then did he belatedly realize that even though 'he' had lost half of his body, he felt no sensation, not even a trace of pain!
Even stranger, he couldn't control 'his' damaged 'body' at all, unable to even do the simplest actions like raising a hand or clenching a fist!
"Oh, someone?"
Not long after, Bó Yáng suddenly saw a wandering monk on the ground. The next moment, Bó Yáng watched as 'his' damaged 'body' purposefully drifted towards this monk.
Perhaps due to the tailwind, Bó Yáng's damaged 'body' quickly reached the monk's side, then urgently drilled into his ear, finally arriving in his brain through the ear, parasitizing there directly like a parasite…
This scene, for Bó Yáng, was like wearing realistic VR glasses; although there was a clear sense of immersion, he was like an observer, without any tactile sensation…
"Finally… I survived…"
Just then, a voice suddenly rang out, startling Bó Yáng, because the voice came from inside his head.
"You… who are you?"
Bó Yáng looked around, trying to find the owner of the voice, but it was clear he wouldn't find him.
"That question should be mine to ask you!"
As the unknown voice rang out again, the scenery around Bó Yáng suddenly changed!
Drip…
Drip…
Drip…
Faint sounds of water dripping echoed, making Bó Yáng instinctively look around.
This place was like an endless expanse of water. Bó Yáng now stood steadily on the water's surface, showing no sign of falling.
And opposite Bó Yáng, a man with equally distinct facial features stood, observing him coldly like a high and mighty deity, as if looking at an ant.
He had pale skin and pale white hair, with a peculiar long, curved horn on his head, starting from the outer corner of his left eye and ending at his right temple, looking from afar like he was wearing a 'crown'!
His unique pure Byakugan and golden rinnegan eyes further highlighted his extraordinary identity!
"Ōtsutsuki Isshiki???"
Bó Yáng looked at the man before him and blurted out involuntarily.
"You know me?"
Isshiki looked at Bó Yáng with slight surprise. He hadn't expected this foreign spiritual entity, who suddenly appeared inside his body, to actually know him.
"Well… I've heard a little…"
Bó Yáng's face immediately showed a stiff smile. Upon seeing Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, he quickly sorted out his thoughts, and his previous confusion was instantly resolved.
Why 'he' was ambushed by Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, and then his body was to be thrown into the Ten-Tails' mouth by her…
Why he couldn't control this damaged 'body'…
Bó Yáng suddenly understood everything.
Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's ambush was not actually on Bó Yáng, but on Ōtsutsuki Isshiki!
It wasn't Bó Yáng whose body was half eaten by the Ten-Tails; it was still Ōtsutsuki Isshiki!
From beginning to end, Bó Yáng was merely an 'outsider' to this body; he had only experienced the previous scene from the perspective of an observer within Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's body…
"It seems you also covet the planetary power of this world, and you've heard of my Ōtsutsuki clan. Then perhaps we can cooperate…"
Isshiki narrowed his eyes at Bó Yáng, seemingly considering what abilities Bó Yáng possessed to forcefully invade his body as a spiritual entity right under his nose. This showed that Bó Yáng was not incompetent!
Therefore, this made Isshiki somewhat uncertain about Bó Yáng, and thus he did not immediately attack him.
After all, Isshiki at this moment was also at the end of his rope. His original body was first severely wounded by Kaguya's ambush, and then half of his body was swallowed by the Ten-Tails…
If it weren't for a creature passing by just now, he wouldn't have been able to parasitize and survive!
"Cooperate?"
Bó Yáng looked at Isshiki in surprise; in the original timeline, the Ōtsutsuki weren't so easy to talk to…
"Exactly."
Isshiki nodded, his cold expression revealing nothing of his thoughts.
"How do you want to cooperate?"
Bó Yáng spoke, feigning composure, his face also showing a cold expression, but the guilt and unease in his eyes could not be hidden.
Isshiki didn't answer, merely continued to stare at Bó Yáng with his unique eyes for a moment, then affirmed: "You're afraid of me?"
"I am not!"
Bó Yáng immediately retorted with feigned fierceness, but in Isshiki's eyes, it was undoubtedly a display of being strong on the outside but weak on the inside.
"For thousands of years, it has always been my Ōtsutsuki clan that plunders and invades…"
"And you dare to invade my body? This is simply an insult to the Ōtsutsuki!"
After a simple probing, Bó Yáng's timid performance directly fell into Isshiki's eyes, making Isshiki realize that Bó Yáng might just be a 'paper tiger'. So, upon discovering this, he immediately bared his fangs.
Just as Isshiki said, as an Ōtsutsuki, he was meant to plunder and invade, not be plundered and invaded…
