-Boruto-

Karma, the seal that serves as a backup plan for the Otsutsuki, biological data embedded in the body of a vessel of their choosing. In other words I'm a tool, I want to say that it's similar to how jinchuriki are but I know better.

This scroll is a goldmine of information, I could read over this a hundred times and still not be done. However, I don't think I should waste time figuring it out, I just need to learn how to use it on command without his interference.

I plop down on the little mat they give prisoners to sleep on, I roll the scroll down to the first section where it's detailing meditation practices. Now I've meditated before back when I was still a kid because my dad did it a lot to reach his "sage mode" but I haven't been able to recently because  of how chaotic my life's been

I sit the scroll down in front of me and read the step-by-step instructions it's detailing.

It's all normal stuff up until step 3

"Step 3- once you get to the meditative state, you will then be confronted by your host"

My host? Looks like I've gotta pay old uncle Momoshiki a visit after all. This should go well.

After finishing the page I cross my legs and begin with basic meditation, I close my eyes, breathe in, breathe out, and eventually I can feel my mind drifting off to another plane of existence almost.

I opened my eyes back up and I was no longer in the prison, I was in a void of sorts. Everything was black, there were jagged mountains in the distance and it was unreasonably cold, like subzero temperatures cold. I walked forward trudging a path through the black mist that rested below me, eventually finding a throne  sitting between two rocky hills, I approached it.

"Come on out, I know you're here!" I yell out

Just then he appeared.

"Ahh, the blue eyed bastard," Momoshiki rested in his seat. "It's been a long while."

"Not too long though," I remarked back. "Sarada told me how you took control of my body and saved her from that Jonin killer."

"Don't flatter yourself child, I did that for my own reasons"

"Doesn't matter, you still did it," a grin stretched across my lips. "Heh, maybe you do have a heart afterall."

Momoshiki turned his head away like a little kid after being scolded. He mumbled something about prophecy but I ignored it.

I walked right up to him and stuck my fist out, "Listen, I don't know anything about you, and you don't know anything about me, we don't have to like each other but I'm gonna have to ask for you to lend me your power from time to time."

"HAHA" Momoshiki let out a loud maniacal laugh. "What makes you think I would lend you anything boy, I gain nothing from this, you're already mines."

"Well i wouldn't be so sure, I have something that even you can't posses"

"And what's that?"

"Jougan"

Momoshiki looked dumbfounded for a second but quickly readjusted himself before speaking.

"I see, and what you're offering is your eye in exchange for letting you use my power?"

"That's right, now stick your hand out already my arms getting tired man"

Momoshiki pondered for a moment before finally sticking his hand out to fist pump mines. At that moment everything froze, the freezing cold turned to scorching hot as I felt my seal spreading on my body. The pain was almost unbearable as I was on the floor screaming in agony.

After what felt like hours, I opened my eyes and realized I was back in my cell. My seal activated and with a new set of markings.

Looks like your boy just got an upgrade.

-narrator-

Boruto had unlocked the third stage of his Karma seal. A stage which would have previously allowed the Otsutsuki host to take control of a vessel, Boruto however was able to use this power all on his own without losing his body.

He was perfectly prepared, Boruto used his newfound power to tear down his chakra infused cell doors, this of course triggered an alarm and a small army of leaf shi in poured into the cell block.
They however, were no match for Boruto. He tore through the shinobi making sure to only knock them out and not kill them. He fought his way out eventually making it all the way to the entrance of the prison. But what Boruto saw when he opened those doors was destruction.

The leaf village was in flames, children wandering around in burnt ragged clothes, dead shinobi littering the ground, and worst of all he saw his own brother, holding Sarada by the neck as she gasped for air.

Boruto stood in shock still trying to figure out the scene that played out before him, and then it hit him.

Kawaki had planned this all, Shikimaru and Sasuke hadn't come after Boruto on their own, they were sent by him, he had brainwashed the entire village.

Kawaki turned and looked at Boruto then dropped Sarada on the ground. "Hey little brother, finally made your way out huh"
