Leaving leadership of the clan to Hamura, he decreed that the clan would stand guard over the Demonic Statue. Before being sealed, Kaguya created a parasitic lifeform containing her will, Black Zetsu to find a way to revive her. The Ten-Tails' chakra was sealed into Hagoromo while its husk, the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, was hidden away and sealed on the Moon, in order to prevent the Ten-Tails' revival. The monster terrorised the world until Hagoromo and Hamura sealed it with their Six Paths - Chibaku Tensei, thus creating the Moon. Having devised a plan to absorb their chakra, she integrated with the Earth's God Tree and became the Ten-Tails. Afterwards, Kaguya eventually found herself ruled by her own desire to possess all chakra, in which made her turn against her own sons. In time Kaguya gave birth to twin sons: Hagoromo and Hamura, both of whom were born with chakra of their own. Foreseeing the consequences of consuming the Chakra fruit against her clan's wishes, she converted the imprisoned victims of the Infinite Tsukuyomi into a White Zetsu Army in fear of her clan returning to take her chakra - an act which lead to humans viewing her as a demon and the Ōtsutsuki condemning her as a traitor.

Meanwhile, Kaguya would slowly developed an attachment for the planet she meant to destroy and even fall in love with a human, only to consume the chakra fruit herself and used its godlike power to end the constant war of Earth's human population with the Infinite Tsukuyomi, resulting in world peace and her being initially viewed as a benevolent deity. In desperation, Isshiki used his Sukunahikona to reduce his body's size and infiltrate the body of a monk named Jigen, taking him over through parasitic means. Instead, Kaguya desired to take the chakra fruit for herself, betraying Isshiki in the process whom she left for dead. HistoryĪ millennium ago, Kaguya and Isshiki were chosen to cultivate the God Tree on the planet Earth and harvest its chakra fruit, with Kaguya serving as a sacrifice to the Ten-Tails sapling. However, the Ōtsutsuki to be sacrificed utilise Kāma to prepare a vessel beforehand in order to revive themselves. In order for the Ten-Tails seeds to bloom into a God Tree, a living Ōtsutsuki must be fed to the beast, hence the clan members travel in pairs, with the lower ranking being the sacrifice, while the other one watches over the fruit's cultivation. Once harvested, as they no longer need the planet, they move to another to repeat the process. Once planted, it grows into a God Tree with its roots spreading across the planet to siphon chakra and genetic material from all its surroundings and inhabitants, resulting in everything dying and it bearing a large fruit for the Ōtsutsuki to consume in order for them to evolve, gaining power and longevity. įor countless eons, the Ōtsutsuki clan have been travelling throughout dimensions seeking out worlds to plant Ten-Tail saplings into.

As a parasitic species they have spent thousands of years traversing the cosmos in order to carry out the Ōtsutsuki Will ( 大筒木の意志, Ōtsutsuki no Ishi), a doctrine which dictates that clan members consume the life energy and genetic material of other worlds in order to continuously evolve, with the ultimate goal of attaining godhood.Īfter the arrival of Kaguya on Earth a millennium ago, the Ōtsutsuki began having a lasting influence on the human population, notably starting the history of shinobi. The Ōtsutsuki Clan ( 大筒木一族, Ōtsutsuki Ichizoku) is an ancient clan of horned celestial beings ( 天津人, amatsubito), also described as aliens ( 宇宙人, uchūjin).
