Naruto: The Age of Ninja Swords Begins in Kumogakure

Chapter 88 Scheming Against Hyuga (Eighth Update)

"Damn it, how can the people of the ninja world be so strong?"

Leaving aside Tamura Hao's unwavering loyalty to Lord Danzo, on the other hand, Otsutsuki Shari flew over a hundred kilometers in one breath, sacrificing his chakra, before finally stopping on a mountaintop, still feeling lingering fear, anger, and terror.

He used to look down on those mixed-blood ninjas in the ninja world, but who would have thought that he would suffer a great loss in his first encounter with them, and even almost die.

I shouldn't have done this, and the Otsutsuki clan shouldn't have suffered such humiliation.

"The Byakugan, we must obtain the pure Byakugan from the Hinata clan."

After a while, Otsutsuki Shari calmed down a bit and thought of a legend from his clan.

According to that legend, although the Otsutsuki clan inherited the purest bloodline of their ancestors, their Byakugan was not pure enough.

The purest Byakugan belongs to the Hyuga clan. If one can obtain a pure Hyuga Byakugan, one can complete the bloodline of one's ancestors and gain even greater power.

He needs power, even greater power, so that he can fight back and avenge his humiliation.

Furthermore, the Zong family member he was protecting had died, and he would inevitably be punished upon returning home. At the very least, he would be imprisoned for life, which was not what he wanted.

With this in mind, Otsutsuki Shari didn't delay. After recovering some chakra, he leaped towards Konoha.

The reason for no longer flying is that the energy consumption of that technique is too great, and it is more cost-effective to travel on foot.

With the help of his Byakugan's superhuman vision and the occasional use of his flight technique, Otsutsuki Shari safely left the Land of Lightning, re-entered the Land of Fire, and eventually arrived outside Konoha.

Without going any closer, he found an ordinary farmer in a small village, controlled his mind and consciousness, and had him take a token to Konoha. Then he waited quietly in the Valley of the End.

"I want to have that power too!"

Standing atop Madara Uchiha's stone statue, looking at the First Hokage opposite him, Otsutsuki Shari was even more determined.

According to the information he obtained after descending, this valley was created by the First Hokage.

To transform a flat plain into a valley requires an inconceivable power, perhaps even approaching that of our ancestors.

If one possesses power at this level, destroying the Hidden Cloud Village would not be difficult.

And those pedantic members of the main family, they no longer need to exist.

Even Li Dou was killed by the people of the ninja world, proving that they misunderstood the will of their ancestors. Only by destroying this flawed ninja world and then reshaping a perfect world can the will of their ancestors be fulfilled.

The more I thought about it, the more determined I became: this flawed world must be corrected.

He didn't have to wait long. As the sun set, Hyuga Munemasa arrived with three branch family ninjas to keep their appointment, leaping onto the stone statue of Senju Hashirama.

"What brings you to the ninja world all of a sudden?"

After activating his Byakugan and examining the chakra within the other person's body and the unique nature of those Byakugan eyes, Hyuga Munemasa confirmed the other person's identity, but he couldn't understand why the other person had suddenly come looking for him.

Even though this was the first time he had met people from this lineage, he had only heard about them from his father before.

"You don't need to know!"

Otsutsuki Rei spoke in a cold and arrogant manner, and his attitude immediately made Hyuga Munemasa realize that something was wrong.

Before he could react, Otsutsuki Rei suddenly appeared in front of him, and a hand pierced his heart.

If he hadn't used his chakra to shift his heart slightly in time, he would have been pierced through the heart.

The fact that he hadn't killed Hyuga Munemasa in one blow made Otsutsuki Shari's expression darken, but his left hand didn't stop, and he swiftly gouged out Hyuga Munemasa's eyes.

Only then did the three branch family members who had come to protect them realize what was happening and quickly took action.

One of them was the fastest, and with a swift, knife-like motion, he severed the arm from which the Otsutsuki relic had pierced Hyuga Munemasa's heart.

"court death!"

The Ōtsutsuki relic was in pain and even more furious.

Before he could even make a move, two members of the branch family launched a desperate attack, while the other man picked up Hyuga Munemasa and ran quickly toward the village.

This person was extremely fast. Even if Otsutsuki Toneri wanted to pursue, he wouldn't have time. Not to mention the two people desperately trying to stop him. With only one arm, he was having a hard time dealing with this person.

However, what none of them noticed was that the eyes of the Hyuga branch family ninja who fled with Hyuga Munemasa were not white; there was a black dot in his pupil, as black as Black Zetsu.

That's right, this person has been silently integrated into and controlled by Black Zetsu, and he has been following this person all along.

Even when he was in Kumogakure, he had time to immerse himself in the brain of Otsutsuki Plow's corpse, from which he learned a great deal of information, including the significance of the Hyuga Byakugan to those people on the moon.

Just as the fusion of the Senju and Uchiha powers can make them stronger, the fusion of the power of the lineage on the moon with the power of the Hyuga clan can also bring about a transformation.

Not to mention that there is a giant Tenseigan on the moon that maintains the entire ecosystem, and the core of it is Hamura's Tenseigan.

With the power within as a guide, it was enough to allow that Otsutsuki relic to obtain the Tenseigan.

Similarly, the giant Tenseigan of the Hyuga clan also needs to be planned.

The Byakugan of the Hyuga clan is important to the Otsutsuki relic, and similarly, his arm is important to the Hyuga clan.

Carrying Hyuga Munemasa in his arms, he ran at top speed, using his chakra to unleash Body Flicker Technique repeatedly, and finally arrived at Konoha.

The ninja on duty at the village entrance, seeing that it was the Hyuga clan leader returning, and that he was seriously injured, immediately let him pass, while sending someone to report to the Hokage Building.

After sending Hyuga Munemasa back to the Hyuga clan's territory, Black Zetsu controlled the branch family ninja, causing him to cough up blood and collapse to the ground, sealing his soul and the Caged Bird Seal.

However, the Hyuga clan didn't pay much attention to this and were focused on the clan leader's injuries. Several elders came to visit him overnight.

Unfortunately, they were all sent away by the seriously injured Hyuga Munemasa, even the people sent by the Hokage were sent away, leaving only the eldest son, Hyuga Hiashi, by his side in the end.

"Hiashi, I can't go on. From this moment on, you will be the head of the Hyuga clan."

With a deathly pale face, Hyuga Munemasa entrusted the position of clan leader to his eldest son. His injuries this time were too severe. Although he used chakra to propel his heart to avoid being pierced by the opponent's palm, he did not completely avoid it. He was scratched by the chakra carried in the opponent's palm and his spine was also injured.

Adding to the bumpy ride over such a long distance, he's now relying entirely on his chakra to stay afloat.

"Dad, who hurt you?"

Hiashi Hyuga's eyes were bloodshot as he was filled with rage at the thief who had injured his father so badly, wishing he could grind him to dust.

"Don't speak, let me speak. You must remember every word I say from now on."

Taking a breath, Hyuga Munemasa said solemnly, "Our Hyuga clan and the Kaguya clan are not only close relatives, but also of the same origin. In addition, there is another main branch that also has Byakugan, but their Byakugan is not as good as ours, and our bodies and chakra are not as good as theirs."

The person who came from that side and took my Byakugan probably wants to do something. Fortunately, we also took one of his arms. Afterwards, you can transplant this arm into your own body and then find a Kaguya-level expert to transplant an arm into. This should help you further develop your Byakugan.

Our Hyuga clan also possesses a secret treasure left by our ancestors, which is the source of the Caged Bird Seal. It contains extremely terrifying power, comparable to that of a Tailed Beast.

"Go find the First Hokage's wife and try to obtain the Tailed Beast Sealing Technique from her, then seal that treasure within your body just like a Tailed Beast..."
