Naruto: I, Shikotsumyaku, Byakugan Princess

Under the cover of night, the figure suspended high in the sky slowly descended.

The black robe was so dark that it almost blended into the night, making the seemingly ordinary owl-face mask all the more striking.

The village ninjas, who had been standing in a circle, silently retreated, making the already spacious central area even more empty.

The line of people waiting for inspection behind Qing was also somewhat scattered. Ringo Yuri clutched her pounding heart, her breathing becoming increasingly labored. She felt as if a heavy object was pressing on her chest, or as if the oxygen content in the air had suddenly become thin.

It's not just her.

As the figure fell.

The Hidden Mist Village, led by Ao, Chojuro, and Hozuki Suigetsu, along with Asuma and other Konoha ninja, and even the bystanders like Kumo, Iwa, Kusanagi, and Suna, all felt that inexplicable pressure.

Like a plump herbivore encountering a jackal or tiger, just seeing the other's silhouette is enough to make one's heart pound.

They are not even the same species!
"is her!"

Danzo quietly took a half step back, hiding behind Orochimaru and blinking his one eye repeatedly.

That's the feeling of fear!
He had experienced this power up close when he broke into that secret chamber, and afterwards, his legs felt weak when he came out of the chamber.

From then on, a seed of fear seemed to have been planted in his heart. Whenever he thought of the other person's face, he would feel his whole body tense up. Until he discovered the betrayal of the Root ninja, he did not even have the courage to fight against Hairi and fled from Root overnight.

If Orochimaru hadn't gone mad and wanted to attack Konoha, he would never have come back!

If others felt this way, Qing felt even more pressure.

As the figure slowly flew towards him, his face began to flush.

It wasn't that a man's blushing was more powerful than any sweet words; rather, his frantically pounding heart was causing his blood pressure to spike. Had he not activated his chakra in time to relieve the pressure, he might have already fainted from a brain hemorrhage.

Even so, he could only barely maintain his life. His body had almost lost all mobility. His agile body, which he had trained hard for many years, now resembled a zombie that had been dead for a long time but had not yet been buried.

"Ye, Lord Yedu..."

Qing struggled to lift her head; the white of her left eye was already bloodshot.

The figure before him was shrouded in a faint red light, and his white eye power was repelled, so he couldn't even see the other person's face. He was already scared to death.

Neither of the two Mizukage of Kirigakure had ever given him this feeling.

Descending to a height of two meters above the ground, Gray Glass looked down at Green, its eyes shining brightly like two gray stars.

Thanks to her left eye, Takamagahara's, extraordinary control over herself, she can now manipulate the aura of fear that she once couldn't control, and she has also found the essence of that ability.

That was a sense of oppression stemming from the very essence of life.

Her immortal body evolved by reversing the Eight Gates and absorbing external life force.

After devouring the Forest of Death and the Thousand-Handed Tree, her body was stained with countless soul energies. Although the impurities in her life force had been filtered out, it still couldn't conceal her bloodthirsty nature.

Normally, this kind of information can be hidden, but her Reversed Eight Gates are open for a long time, which means she is constantly releasing her life signals to the outside world.

Therefore, all living beings are like mice encountering a cat in front of her; the stronger ones can put up a fight, while the weaker ones will fall into a state of rigidity or even faint directly.

After this ability evolution, the fear aura that could only clear out small fry has now increased in power exponentially, and can now be targeted at a single person to maximize its power.

Kaguya Otsutsuki once used her Byakugan's Intimidation ability to suppress Hamura Otsutsuki to the point of immobility. She is far from being able to do that. Currently, she can only suppress an elite Jonin to the point of near death!

"Take off your blindfold and get ready for the inspection! Haven't I made myself clear enough?"

"Ho...ho..."

His eyes were bloodshot, and the veins on his forehead and neck were bulging. He was smacking his lips meaninglessly, unable to even straighten his tongue, let alone perform the complicated task of removing the blindfold!

Seeing Qing's fingers tremble as if she wanted to struggle, Hui Li remained expressionless, gathering her invisible aura of fear and pressing it firmly against Qing's body:
"Hey Kirigakure Jonin, are you sure you want to resist the inspection? You'll die!"

"Uh!"

His Adam's apple bobbed wildly, and Qing opened his mouth but could only let out a weak whimper.

His intracranial pressure continued to rise, and he began to hear a buzzing sound in his ears. His vision became blurred due to excessive blood flow, but he still understood what the other person meant.

If they do not cooperate with the Konoha ninja's inspection, they are considered terrorists who intend to harm the village, and will naturally be beheaded as a warning to others according to regulations!
A flash of understanding crossed Qing's eyes.

They want to kill him!
why?
Just because this Byakugan belongs to the Hyuga clan, they want to kill me in front of other ninja villages? Aren't they afraid of being questioned by the Mizukage or even starting a war between the two countries?

His completely illogical behavior left Ao unable to understand the underlying reasons. His strong will to survive prompted him to look away and plead with the tense Chojuro and the others.

"Something's wrong with Teacher Qing."

Chojuro struggled against the pressure, his voice trembling as he spoke.

"You say it!"

Clenching his teeth, Hozuki Suigetsu trembled violently, his pants soaked through. Due to intense mental pressure, his body perceived it as being attacked and had automatically entered a state of water transformation.

The others aren't fools either.

Seeing Qing trembling all over, her eyes bloodshot and red, coupled with the intense fear she herself felt, how could she not know the other person's current state?

"Konoha is about to make a move against Kirigakure!"

Han, Maki, and Darui whispered to each other, "In a gathering of ninjas from five countries, there's no way there could be any feuds. This must be a signal from Konoha."

A sense of unease settled over everyone. The fact that Konoha dared to attack ninjas from other villages during the Chunin Exams, and in full view of everyone, was quite intriguing.

Does Konoha want to use this opportunity to start a war, or does it have some other purpose?
Thump...thump...

Before they could figure it out, the Kusagakure ninjas standing with Kumogakure could no longer hold on and collapsed to the ground like baguettes. In the end, only the Jonin leading the team and three female ninjas remained in the Kusagakure group.

Orochimaru and Danzo stood out from the crowd. Facing the slowly approaching Haili from the sky, their hearts pounded. They wanted to fall down but felt it would be too deliberate, so they could only stand upright like baguettes.

wow~
As Hui Li was secretly amused by observing Danzo and the other man, she suddenly heard the sound of running water below.

Taking advantage of the distraction caused by Hui Li, Hozuki Suigetsu transformed most of his sensory organs into flowing water. Just as uninstalling 360 antivirus software can solve the problem of virus lag, he finally got rid of the fear from the bottom of his heart.

"I'll answer on behalf of Teacher Qing: he's willing to undergo an examination by Konoha."

"Uh-huh!"

Ao glanced gratefully at Hozuki Suigetsu, her eyes glowing red, as if she had rediscovered hope for survival.

The fact that the other party did not kill him directly suggests that they still had some reservations about his identity. As long as the other party had no excuse to retaliate, he would have a chance to escape with his life.

"Okay..." The regretful tone made Qing's eyes shine with joy.

Hui Li landed slowly and walked to Qing's side, an uncontrollable smile playing on her lips beneath the mask:

"Let me check."

Yamashiro Aoba and his companion, who were about to step forward, wisely retreated quickly.

Sarutobi Asuma had a bad feeling, but thinking of his father's orders in the appointment letter he had just received, he could only suck on the still unlit cigarette.

Under the pitch-black night sky, Hui Li looked at the hope in Qing's eyes and reached for the black eye mask with three gloved fingers.

That's probably how he removed Tiankui's eyes.

While she was protecting the branch family ninjas as they retreated, she swiftly stole one of their Byakugan eyes. It was because of this that she, a special ninja with both the Kaguya and Hyuga bloodlines, was born, leading to this revenge.

Orochimaru and Danzo in the crowd frowned simultaneously. They were very familiar with those gloves; they were usually only seen in sterile environments such as laboratories and operating tables, and were a standard pair of sterile disposable medical gloves.

Good grief, they're not even going to act anymore!
Judging others by their own standards, the two subconsciously assumed that Hui Li was targeting Qing in order to obtain that white eye.

However, they weren't wrong. They roughly pulled off the black blindfold, and Hui Li looked closely at the pure white eye filled with fear. The image of the woman in her mind, who always had her eyes covered and a gentle smile, was finally pieced together.

She was able to deceive the Dark Guard by pretending to be blind when she was hidden in the mist, thanks to the influence she had gained from childhood.

"it's beautiful!"

As she pieced together Hinata Aoi's face in her mind, Hui Li smiled with pleasure.

Then, to Qing's horrified gaze, three fingers wearing medical gloves slowly pierced into her eye socket!

"Ugh... Ahhhhh!"

Ao's piercing screams were chilling. The outer village ninjas, already trembling with fear, now shook their legs like leaves. Even many Konoha ninjas frowned; for civilian ninjas who believed in the Will of Fire, Hairi's methods were far too cruel.

Thick blood dripped down the glove, and Gray Glass stared at the pearl-like white of his eye, the purplish-red optic nerve still tightly connected to the blood hole in his right eye.

"what are you doing?"

"Let go of Teacher Qing!"

Chojuro and Hozuki Suigetsu roared in anger and tried to rush forward, but they were instantly surrounded by Konoha ninjas. When they tried to draw their swords, they found that their ninja swords were still lying quietly on the ground. Considering the difference in strength between themselves and their enemies, they immediately gave up.

"Eye roll!?"

The Konoha ninja, led by Sarutobi Asuma, quickly recognized the true nature of the white eye in Hairi's hand and exclaimed in surprise.

Ao acquired his Byakugan during the Third Shinobi World War. Due to the rarity of the Byakugan, he rarely left the village unless it was for an important mission. The new generation of Konoha ninjas did not recognize Ao at all, let alone know where this Byakugan came from.

"He is the White-Eyed Killer, Qing!"

The ninjas who had fought on the battlefield back then were not all dead. Soon, a middle-aged man with a long scar on his face, who looked to be in his forties, called out Qing's identity.

The ninja groups from other villages also began to whisper among themselves, and the story of Ao stealing the Hyuga Byakugan on the battlefield was brought up again.

"Are the Hidden Mist Village idiots? How dare they send someone like this to participate in the Chunin Exams!" Kurotsuchi's mouth gaped open, utterly bewildered.

Han glanced at Kurotsuchi and explained casually, "Most of the elite Jonin currently existing in each village have the blood of ninjas from other villages on their hands. It's just that Kirigakure didn't expect Konoha to become so powerful!"

Kurotsuchi stuck out her tongue in silence and didn't say anything more. She was afraid that if she found out that Han also had people on his hands, it would be difficult to handle the situation when facing Konoha.

呲呲!

The wind-style technique severed the optic nerves above the Byakugan. To everyone's astonishment, Kairi pulled a glass bottle from his sleeve, and the bloody Byakugan fell into the water, which quickly turned pink.

Chojuro and his two companions were closest to the object, and by the relatively bright moonlight, they could clearly see the words "saline solution" written on it.

The other party didn't even bother to pretend.

After suppressing Tiankui's eye roll, Hui Li turned her back to Qing, whose face was covered in blood, and said casually and perfunctorily:

"An investigation revealed that Kirigakure ninja Ao brought contraband into the village with malicious intent. He has been sentenced to death as a warning to others!"

Qing Wei's eyes widened suddenly. He thought that removing the white eye would solve the problem, but he didn't expect that the other party would still not let him go.

Yes!

The rules set by the other party never specified what constitutes prohibited items. In other words, whatever she wants to be prohibited is prohibited!
Whether he refuses inspection or possesses contraband, one of these charges applies.

The Hidden Mist ninja gritted their teeth in anger, but the situation was beyond their control. Even the elite Jonin leading the team were powerless to resist, so how could these Genin possibly stand up against this terrifying woman!

Chojuro and the others looked to the ninjas from other villages for help, only to find them all silent. Despair set in as they lowered their heads. Kirigakure had long been isolated and had little interaction with other ninja villages; even if they did, they probably wouldn't want to fight Konoha over it.

Qing is doomed!
Hui Li looked down at the ninjas below with their heads bowed in satisfaction. Her judgment was indeed very fair. Not only were there no dissenters, but even the person being judged did not raise any objections.

"Cough cough...I..."

Qing finally got used to the fear. Although his body was weak, he was no longer completely unable to move as before. But before he could speak, he suddenly felt his lungs stop working as if he were drowning.

"Ha~ha~"

His face turned purplish-red, and Qing frantically pounded his lungs with his fists, making terrifying thuds, as if he wanted to flatten his chest.

Having escaped her mother's glare, Hui Li touched the ground with one foot and rose back into the air as if she had lost gravity.

The light of Takamagahara is not directed only at the earth, but at all lifeless things without will, including the air.

From the moment she entered the Takamagahara area, everyone's fate was in her hands!
Qing collapsed to the ground, blood gushing from the crater in his right eye. He pounded his chest frantically, letting out a beast-like roar, then rolled wildly on the ground, even clutching his own neck with a ferocious expression like a vengeful ghost.

Gulu!

The ninjas watching the bizarre and gruesome scene were filled with the distinct sounds of them swallowing hard, which were especially clear in the secluded forest.

Oxygen plays a role in the redox reactions of mitochondria, providing energy to cells throughout the body. Ao's chakra is a universal energy source, so even without oxygen, he can survive for a long time.

thump!
thump!
The green creature, covered in dirt, thrashed about on the beach like a thirsty fish, sending chills down everyone's spines and making their toes curl up in tension.

"Sunagakure, Iwagakure... are you also trying to evade inspection?"

A female voice, like a death knell, echoed through the sky, instantly startling those named.

"Examiner, we are willing to cooperate with the inspection!" Han and Maki raised their hands at the same time, their eyes filled with unwavering determination.

Before you understand the opponent's abilities, you absolutely must not resist! (End of Chapter)
