Human God Trees.
The Human God Trees (人神樹, Hitoshinju) are an evolved race of Claw Grime, humanoid soldiers molded from the flesh of the Ten-Tails and Code’s Claw Marks. They are led by Jura, the Ten-Tails's direct incarnation.
History[]
Hidari's Thorn Soul Bulb.
When Code was entrusted a Ten-Tails seedling, upon Isshiki Ōtsutsuki's death, he used his Claw Marks to create fission beings he called Claw Grime. Three years later, what remained of the Ten-Tails became the humanoid God Tree, Jura. Similarly, when a person is consumed by a Claw Grime, causing it to become a small tree that encases the victim, a new God Tree will emerge. Unlike the Claw Grimes or a Ten-Tails, these God Trees each taking on unique appearances and personalities. Likewise, they are self-aware with intelligence and desires. Those born of Claw Grimes also inherit the appearance and chakra signature of those that were absorbed by their lesser counterparts. To which, they identify themselves as "sentient God Trees" (自我を持つ神樹, jiga o motsu Shinju), as well as incarnations of a Tailed Beast.[1][2] The core of their being is the "Thorn Soul Bulb" (棘魂, Togedama), which persists even if their bodies are destroyed completely. So long as the core remains, they can be resurrected, provided it is done before the bulb rots; the Thorn Soul Bulb is also required to restore the devoured individual from the God Trees.
Abilities[]
Ryū using the Kekkei Genkai of his template, Shinki.
The sentient God Trees wield various abilities including flight, morphing their limbs, immense strength and speed, accelerated healing, and can manipulate their own Claw Marks. They are all considered monsters with power well-above their own creator Code.[3][4] Being incarnations of the Ten-Tails, they possess Rinnegan and wield the Wood Release and Tailed Beast Ball. Also, they can replicate the same techniques as their chakra templates. However, some attributes may not be inherited. Despite being able to use Sasuke's Chidori, Hidari cannot properly ultilise the jutsu due to its drawback of diminished perception. This is because he apparently lacks the Sharingan, the only known means to bypass the jutsu's weakness, even though he also possesses the Rinnegan, the Sharingan's further evolved stage.[5]
