Naruto: The Primal Hyuga Pierces the Shinobi World.

Chapter 178 The Sun! (Please Subscribe)

"The Tenseigan will help you dispel all illusions and obstacles."

"Remember, you are special."

Hamura Otsutsuki's words reached Shinichi Hyuga's ears. Upon hearing this, Shinichi looked at Hamura with a serious expression and asked in a deep voice, "What do you mean by that?"

"Let's put it more clearly."

Shinichi Hyuga sensed a hidden meaning in Hamura's words. It seemed the other man vaguely knew something, and his purpose in saying those words was perhaps to guide him?

Shinichi was unsure and hoped to get a definite answer from Hamura.

"Some things, you will always know when the time comes, and you can't escape them even if you want to."

"Perhaps this is what they call destiny."

Hamura shook his head, his words vague. However, Shinichi wasn't impressed by Hamura's pretentious attitude. After a moment's thought, Shinichi looked down at the ground and suddenly asked, "Aren't there Otsutsuki clan members on Earth too?"

Where is that person?

Hinata Shin's eyes flashed with a divine light. When he asked the question, he stared intently at Otsutsuki Hamura's expression, hoping to glean some information from the other's micro-expressions.

At the very least... he needed to know whether Hamura's answer to him was the truth.

Sure enough, when he suddenly heard Shinichi Hyuga ask this question, Hamura Otsutsuki looked surprised. He seemed not to have expected Shinichi to ask such a question.

Or rather... he was surprised that Shinichi actually knew about the Otsutsuki clan on Earth?!

Judging from Shinichi Hyuga's tone, he even seems to know something about the Otsutsuki clan.

The other information revealed by this question forced Hamura to take some time to process. When his gaze returned to Shinichi Hyuga, it had completely changed: "What do you know?"

At this moment, Hamura was somewhat unsure of what information Shinichi Hyuga knew, and his previously somewhat aloof demeanor had completely vanished.

"I know quite a lot."

"For example... Kaguya wasn't the only Otsutsuki to come to Earth."

"For example...the Nine-Tails' true form, the Ten-Tails..."

"I don't want to wait passively; I want to take the initiative. Lord Hamura, with your knowledge, if I were to encounter the Otsutsuki who came to Earth with Kaguya, who do you think would be stronger?"

Hamura Otsutsuki is the younger brother of Hagoromo, the Sage of Six Paths, and can be considered one of the ancestors of the Hyuga clan. Moreover, Shinichi Hyuga has genuinely received some favors from him, so calling him "Master" will not make Shinichi Hyuga feel uncomfortable.

Shinichi vaguely suspected that Hamura seemed to have some information about Isshiki Otsutsuki.

Upon closer reflection, it's not surprising that Otsutsuki Hamura, who had always been paying attention to the development of the ninja world and where the ninja world created by his brother would ultimately go, could perceive Otsutsuki Isshiki.

Although both are Otsutsuki, there is actually a hierarchy within the Otsutsuki clan, with upper and lower ranks. It wouldn't be surprising if Otsutsuki Isshiki, who was nearly killed by Kaguya's attack, didn't notice Hamura's spying in that state.

Having grasped the movements of Isshiki Otsutsuki, Hamura was likely able to predict that a major event would occur in the ninja world in the future. Perhaps, his guidance and warning to Shinichi was to prepare Shinichi for the storm to come.

However, Shinichi already knows a lot of things in the "present" without having to wait for the future.

Even more surprisingly, Shinichi Hyuga knew that Kaguya hadn't come to Earth alone.

"Who... exactly are you...?"

Hamura stared at Hyuga Shinichi in astonishment. He had thought Shinichi was merely exceptionally talented and had the potential to protect the ninja world. But to his surprise, this young man knew so many secrets about the Otsutsuki clan.

These things could not possibly have been recorded in history in the ninja world. Only the Otsutsuki clan, after reaching a certain age and awakening some of their inherited knowledge, would know about these things.

After sealing away their mother, Princess Kaguya, for many years, he and his brother awakened to their "mission" concerning the Otsutsuki clan.

However, he and Yu Yi both chose to abandon their missions, and even allowed their bodies to age while their souls hid away in order to avoid their so-called missions.

Noticing Hamura's surprise, Shinichi Hyuga didn't say anything more, which made Shinichi seem somewhat "mysterious" and unpredictable in Hamura's eyes.

"Heh... Heh heh heh heh!"

"Ha ha ha ha!!!"

After a brief moment of astonishment, Hamura couldn't help but chuckle softly, then could no longer contain his joy and burst into laughter: "As expected of the man I've chosen!"

"I can actually answer your questions."

"Your Tenseigan has matured, which is extremely rare even among the Otsutsuki clan."

"Use your eye power skillfully, and that man will never be your match."

"His body couldn't even support him to fight you."

"However, it probably won't be easy to completely uncover him."

"I only noticed the difference in the other person by chance during one of my observations."

"His human body cannot contain his soul, and he needs to be reincarnated every few years."

"All I know about him is his existence, but finding him is up to you."

"Your eyes can recognize him."

Hamura Otsutsuki finally stopped playing coy with Shinichi Hyuga; he and Shinichi actually shared a common goal.

Shinichi wanted peace and stability, and he wanted to protect his family; while Hamura wanted to protect the ninja world created by his brother.

Otsutsuki Isshiki was actually their common enemy.

"Thank you, I got the answer I wanted."

Shinichi Hyuga finally got the answer he wanted from Hamura. Shinichi Hyuga was confident in his abilities and equally confident in his talent.

However, the reality is that the ninja world is very cruel, and confidence alone will not give you strength far exceeding that of your enemies.

Shinichi Hyuga feared that no matter how hard he tried, he would not be able to achieve a leap in strength.

He has always had a clear understanding of himself. With his Byakugan and terrifying chakra, even after learning and mastering Sage Mode, he could only grow to the level of Hashirama Senju at most.

But that level is definitely not enough.

Shinichi went to great lengths to come to the moon because he wanted to obtain the Tenseigan. In fact, Shinichi was prepared to forcibly take it from her. Fortunately, things didn't turn out the worst way.

Even with the Tenseigan, Shinichi wasn't sure if his power would be enough to handle future changes.

Upon closer reflection, even with the Tenseigan, Toneri couldn't defeat Naruto Uzumaki, who possessed half the power of the Sage of Six Paths.

If we consider Kaguya as a standard member of the Otsutsuki clan in terms of combat strength, Hamura and Hagoromo merely divided Kaguya's chakra.

Carat, and strictly speaking, Six Paths Naruto only has 1/4 of "Kaguya".

However, Shinichi overlooked the fact that his Tenseigan was different from Toneri's.

Toneri's Tenseigan even showed signs of fetal movement during his battle with Naruto. Not only is it not the final form of the Tenseigan, but Toneri's Tenseigan is simply a product of the fusion of his own chakra and Hanabi's Byakugan power.

Shinichi Hyuga's Tenseigan was formed through his own mutation and the absorption of all the Byakugan power accumulated over the past thousand years by the branch families on the moon.

His and Sheren's power bases were never on the same dimension from the beginning.

Without a comparison, Shinichi no longer has a clear understanding of his own power. Perhaps only Hamura, standing before him, knows exactly where Shinichi Hyuga's power limit lies.

Compared to Shinichi's "lack of confidence," Hamura was full of confidence in Shinichi, who now possessed the Tenseigan.

"Shinichi Hyuga, I'm leaving Toneri in your care."

"I will be here watching over the ninja world my brother created. I believe that the ninja world will develop in the way my brother envisioned."

As he spoke, Hamura Otsutsuki's figure gradually became ethereal, and the surrounding chaos gradually dissipated after Hamura finished speaking.

Instead, there are mounds of graves everywhere and ancient city bricks with mottled surfaces all around.

"Brother, may I address you that way?"

As the young boy gazed at the endless mounds of graves before him, a feeling of sadness welled up within him. He didn't know what this emotion was called, but at that moment, he instinctively wanted to find someone to lean on.

Gently grabbing the hem of Shinichi's clothes, Shiro asked somewhat cautiously.

Since his father's death, he has been alone. Although there are many puppets in the Heavenly Palace to keep him company, a puppet is still just a puppet.

Upon seeing Shinichi Hyuga, Toneri felt a genuine sense of familiarity, and now, with the added influence of the "ancestor's command," he became even more dependent on Shinichi.

The servant clearly heard that his ancestor had entrusted himself to the young man before him.

"Is this your elder brother?"

"No!"

Seeing the hopeful look in Sheren's eyes, Shinichi's expression suddenly turned serious. Just as Sheren was at a loss and looking disappointed, Shinichi gently patted Sheren's shoulder and continued, "Calling me 'elder brother' is too formal. Just call me 'big brother'."

"From today onwards, you are my family."

"He's my own brother!"

Shinichi Hyuga would never allow a child like Toneri to harbor resentment. Toneri was an exceptionally gifted child. In fact, Shinichi Hyuga was even planning to help Toneri develop the Tenseigan.

Of course, the main family's eyes would never be given to the steward. Shinichi maintained respect for both the elders and his own adoptive father.

but...

Isn't there a member of the main family's eye enshrined in the Hyuga clan's shrine today?!

That was the Byakugan that Shinichi Hyuga had taken back from the Kirigakure ninja Ao. It was also the pure Byakugan of the main family, and it should be able to bring about a qualitative change in Toneri as he grew up.

However, plans are plans, and we'll have to wait until Sheren reaches his peak before discussing them. It's too early to talk about it now.

In fact, it is not hard to see from Shinichi's plans for Toneri that he did not actually treat Toneri as an outsider.

Having received a very sincere answer from Shinichi, Shiten's disappointment vanished. Gently grasping Shinichi's hand, Shiten couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly, as if he were feeling the warmth of a living person emanating from Shinichi.

The warmth from his palm lessened the sorrow in Sheren's heart.

Having awakened the Tenseigan, Hyuga Shinichi's perception of people's minds and psychology became countless times stronger. At this moment, he seemed to be able to clearly see...

He clearly "saw" the changes in the other person's emotions.

Without shaking off Sheren, Shinichi gently squeezed Sheren's hand and said softly, "Let's go, I'll take you home."

Upon hearing this, Sheren's eyes revealed a glimmer of hope. He hadn't heard anyone say the word "go home" to him for countless years.

At this moment, Sheren also felt a greater longing and anticipation for the place where he would live in the future.

A figure flickered.

Shinichi Hyuga and Toneri had already appeared in the underground cave. The walls of the passage were inlaid with gems that emitted a blue light. Toneri looked around curiously, only then realizing that he had actually been taken away from the graveyard by Shinichi.

"Is this the power of the Tenseigan?"

Shinichi Hyuga savored the feeling of using the Flying Thunder God Technique, a sense of surprise welling up inside him.

He had never felt that using space-time ninjutsu was so smooth. Neither he nor his companions felt any strangeness from the spatial jumps.

Now, Shinichi Hyuga uses the Flying Thunder God Technique as easily and naturally as breathing, just like Kaguya uses Amenominaka. It's as if Shinichi and Toneri aren't jumping through space, but rather that space has come to the location where Shinichi and the others are!

While Shiren was still wondering where they were, Shinichi had already figured it out and led Shiren to a cold pool. Without waiting for Shiren to make any preparations, he led Shiren into the water.

The passage between Earth and the Moon is this icy pool. When Setsuna Toneri stepped into the pool, he was also disturbed by illusions, and his childhood experiences and memories flashed through his mind.

Sherman's childhood was unfortunate; loneliness and despair shrouded his life.

However, just as he was immersed in his unfortunate life, the illusion suddenly disappeared, and Shinichi Hyuga's gentle smile appeared before him.

"Big brother..."

For some reason, seeing Shinichi's face calmed her down, and as she called out to Shinichi, she tightened her grip.

Ultimately, Sheren is nothing more than a lonely child lacking security.

Such children are prone to extremes, but at the same time, they only need a little bit of sunshine and warmth, and they will do everything in their power to protect the "sun" that gives them sunshine and warmth!

Without a doubt, Shinichi Hyuga today is the sun in Toneri's life!

A waterfall somewhere within the Land of Fire.

"Bang!"

As large waves rose from the pool beneath the waterfall, Shinichi Hyuga and Toneri emerged from the icy water.

Having passed through the passage, they had returned to Earth.

This place is near the Land of Iron, and it is the height of winter.

As Toneri emerged from the water, he shivered, clearly unaccustomed to the climate and feeling the biting cold. Just then, Shinichi used chakra to wipe away the moisture from Toneri's body and took out a cloak from his storage space to gently wrap it around Toneri's body.

At the same time, Shinichi's gentle voice also reached Toneri's ears: "The climate of the ninja world is different from the underground world of the moon."

"Once you get used to it, you might even like snowy days."
