Analyzing the Ninja World Starting from Konoha

Chapter 334 The Recluse's New Eyes

boom!!

The wood shattered, and the enormous wooden figure disintegrated.

A green Susanoo stood in the center of the field, wielding a spiral sword.

The Third Hokage looked at Susanoo before him with a complex expression in his eyes.

The vortex-faced Bai Jue let out a strange cry and hurriedly jumped away.

However, Shisui gave him no chance to catch his breath.

"The Eight-Span Jewel!"

boom!

The vortex-faced White Zetsu was hit by the Magatama Light Bullet, and his entire body was blasted away.

Hyuga White Zetsu had already jumped to the side, and looked at the vortex-faced White Zetsu with disdain when he saw him being killed.

"Fake goods are fake goods; they were taken down that easily."

At this moment, the outer shell of the vortex-faced White Zetsu had been mostly shattered by the impact of the explosion, revealing its true form.

"Father----

'

Hiashi Hyuga's pupils suddenly contracted.

The surrounding Hyuga clan members were also shocked, never expecting that the person being controlled was actually the Grand Elder.

"The Grand Elder?!"

"How is this possible! That monster is actually Lord Zong Lian?!"

Tsunade looked at the White Zetsu that had run away and immediately understood.

"That's the real thing!"

When Hyuga Hakuzetsu saw that his identity had been exposed, he did not panic at all, but instead revealed a strange smile.

"Oh dear, we've been found out."

"But there's something even more fun, want to see?"

As they were talking.

Hyuga White Zetsu slowly raised his right hand.

He formed a hand seal with one hand.

The moment he saw that seal, Hiashi Hyuga's pupils contracted sharply.

"stop!!!"

However, it was too late.

Caged Bird Spell - Activated!

"Aaaaaah!!!"

"Aaaaaaah!!!"

Screams instantly echoed throughout the entire battlefield.

A Hyuga branch family ninja clutched his forehead, collapsed to the ground, and quickly lost his life.

"Damn bastard!"

The third generation roared and shot out his sword.

"Sword Shadow Clone Technique!"

One shuriken instantly multiplied into dozens, which then attacked White Zetsu.

At the same time, Shisui also controlled Susanoo to swing his sword down with a bang!

"Hehehe—too slow!"

Hyuga White Zetsu leaped out of the smoke and dust, landing a dozen meters away, and reactivated the curse seal.

Two more Hyuga branch family ninjas stopped breathing under the cursed seal.

"asshole!"

The Japanese were absolutely furious.

The Eight Trigrams Empty Palm was also dodged by Hyuga White Zetsu.

Just as Hyuga White Zetsu was about to reactivate the cursed seal, a crow's cry suddenly rang out.

A black feather drifted down in front of Hyuga White Zetsu.

The surrounding scenery changed instantly.

A blood-red sky, a black moon, and countless images of him nailed to crosses.

"Is this... Tsukuyomi?"

The thought only flashed through Hyuga White Zetsu's mind before his body fell straight down, his eyes losing all their luster.

The strange smile still lingered on Hyuga White Zetsu's lips.

"What a troublesome eye technique—"

Shisui paused for a moment, then immediately released Susanoo and turned to look at a rooftop not far away.

Uchiha Itachi had already appeared there at some point.

The crimson Mangekyou Sharingan shone with an eerie light under the moonlight.

Upon seeing this, Shisui smiled.

"Well done, Itachi."

Itachi closed his eyes and degenerated his Kaleidoscope Sharingan.

Seeing the Hyuga White Zetsu fall to the ground, the Hyuga branch family members all breathed a sigh of relief. "Is it... over?"

"We survived!"

Although the crisis has been temporarily averted, the shadow of death has not been lifted.

Tsunade's expression was serious as she quickly walked up to Hiashi.

"Chief Hyuga, I have a question for you."

"Is it true that once you master the technique, anyone, regardless of whether they are a member of the Hyuga clan, can activate the Caged Bird Seal?"

""

Tsunade's voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached the ears of every Hyuga clan member present.

Hijiri's body froze instantly.

He knew exactly what Tsunade was asking.

He lowered his head, looking at the corpses of his tribesmen on the ground, and his Adam's apple bobbed.

"yes----"

His voice was hoarse. "Theoretically speaking, as long as one knows the technique, anyone can activate the Caged Bird Seal."

Upon hearing this, the entire room fell silent.

The Hyuga branch family members, who had just escaped death, all showed expressions of fear on their faces.

Death itself is not scary; what is scary is being constantly shrouded in the shadow of death.

Although the enemy in front of us has been defeated, who can guarantee that no other enemy has mastered this technique?

If the enemy is hiding in the shadows, give them a good thrashing anytime, anywhere.

Then wouldn't those who separated from the family not even know when or how they died?!

Tsunade looked at Hiashi, her tone leaving no room for argument.

"Hyuga clan leader, for the safety of Konoha, I, as Hokage, have given the order to hand over the sealing formula for the Caged Bird Seal."

This is not a discussion, it is an order.

Hiashi raised his head, looked at Tsunade, then looked around, and finally looked at his younger brother.

Japanese foot closed his eyes.

When she opened her eyes again, the struggle in them had vanished.

"Please come with me, Hokage."

Tsunade nodded and turned to look at the Third Hokage.

"Old man, I'll leave this to you to clean up."

The Third Hokage stood there, watching Tsunade's retreating figure.

There was a long silence.

"So, this is your purpose, Tsunade?"

The third generation sighed, a complex light flashing in his eyes.

He was not unaware of the problem of the caged bird.

However, over the years, he has never been able to make up his mind to take action.

"As expected—I'm getting old."

"Anchors, listen to my command! Clean up the battlefield immediately and treat the wounded!"

"Collect all the White Zetsu remains, leave not a single one behind!"

"yes!"

The outer perimeter of the Hyuga clan's territory.

On a thick, sturdy tree, a white Zetsu emerged halfway out of the trunk.

"Oh dear, this is really scary."

"Shisui of the Body Flicker, Fugaku Uchiha, and that brat, who seems to be Fugaku's son."

97

"Konoha actually has three pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan—this is incredible information."

"We need to tell Black Zetsu this right away—"

White Zetsu muttered to himself as he prepared to crawl back into the tree trunk.

A hand appeared out of thin air and grabbed his neck.

White Zetsu: ? ? ?

Bai Jue was completely stunned.

When?!

It didn't even notice.

"Got you?"

The visitor was none other than Yamashiro Aoba.

Aoba forcefully pulled White Zetsu out of the tree trunk and held it in mid-air.

"You must be that special White Zetsu that spreads spores, right?"

However, Aoba didn't expect White Zetsu to answer.

A red light flashed in his eyes.

White Zetsu's body stiffened instantly, and his eyes became empty and lifeless.

They've been taken into custody.

However, Aoba's brows furrowed slightly.

"Isn't that right?!"

The Land of Grass, deep underground.

The demonic golem occupied most of the cave space, its hands were cuffed with chains, and its nine eyes were closed, yet it still exuded a tremendous sense of oppression.

To prevent Aoba Yamashiro from using his other Rinnegan to summon the golem away, Black Zetsu immediately moved the golem here.

They also set up a barrier to block spiritual communication.

-

Besides Hashirama's clone, Toneri was also bound to the golem.

Toneri's rich Otsutsuki bloodline can temporarily activate the golem, unlike Nagato who had to be pierced by black rods.

Black Zetsu slowly emerged from the shadows.

Seemingly sensing someone approaching, Sheren turned his head slightly.

"Who?"

"Who are you? Let me go!"

"Oh? You regained consciousness so quickly?"

"As expected of a descendant with the same bloodline as their mother, their vitality is truly tenacious."

Black Zetsu reached out and a purple Rinnegan appeared in his hand.

He walked up to Toneri and, without the slightest hesitation, pressed the Rinnegan directly into Toneri's empty right eye socket.

The golem quickly restored Sherman's visual nerves.

As the nerves connected, the Rinnegan and the bloodline of the Otsutsuki instantly resonated.

A massive surge of chakra erupted from Toneri's body, instantly breaking free from the golem's restraints.

Having gained eyes, Shiren was finally able to see the world clearly before him.

He also got a clear look at the monster standing in front of him.

"You—what exactly are you?"

Sheren was somewhat surprised and suspicious. He could sense that the dark mass in front of him seemed to be one of his own kind.

Black Zetsu grinned.

"who I am?"

"We are all our mother's children —"

Upon hearing this, the attendant was taken aback.

Just then, the Rinnegan in his eyes suddenly lit up.

A memory that didn't belong to him flooded into his mind like a tide.

My memories are starting to fade.

A jumble of chaotic images flashed by: the mother's gentle smile, the long years of imprisonment—

"who I am----"

The servant's expression began to become blank, and he muttered unconsciously.

"I need to save my mother!"

Black Zetsu nodded in satisfaction.

Then a box was taken out.

It was the Byakugan that Hyuga White Zetsu had given it before.

Black Zetsu removed the Byakugan and embedded it into Toneri's left eye socket.

Just as the white eye was embedded, Sheren's body suddenly trembled.

The chakra that had calmed down boiled up again, even more violently than before.

Something inside my body seems to have been activated!

The white of his eyes, which were originally pure, suddenly began to glow with a faint blue light.

Although it is still very faint, it is definitely a sign that the Tenseigan is about to awaken!

As the Byakugan was absorbed, Toneri's memories, which had been forcibly suppressed, began to return like a tide.

"who I am?"

"I am Sheren—"

Seeing that Sheren's self-awareness was about to awaken, Black Zetsu snorted coldly and directly possessed Sheren's body.

"Don't worry, let me help you remember."

Black Zetsu began to interfere with Toneri's memories. After all, Toneri was still young at this time and completely unable to resist.

The truth and the falsehood are intertwined.

Under the interference of Black Zetsu, Shiren's memories have been completely distorted.

"I am Sheren—"

"I am my mother's most beloved child —"

"I will resurrect my mother! I will destroy this filthy ninja world!"

A moment later.

The servant slowly stood up.

At this moment, Toneri's left eye was a white eye with a pale blue glow, and his right eye was a purple Rinnegan.

His expression turned utterly cold.

"And one of the Rinnegan was stolen by that bastard Yamashiro Aoba."

"It's alright."

"The key now is to determine the location of those tailed beasts."

As he spoke, the attendant raised his right hand.

A pebble in the distance suddenly flew up out of thin air and landed precisely in his palm.

Five fingers clenched together.

He crushed the stone with his bare hands.

"The power is still too weak."

Sheren looked down at his palm, his eyes devoid of any emotion.

"I need more chakra."

In the Hokage's office in Konoha Village.

Aoba looked at the pile of documents and scrolls in front of him, and his lips twitched violently a few times.

-

"Did you just take all the information about the Hyuga clan?"

He casually picked up a scroll, which turned out to be a cultivation method for the Soft Fist Returning to Heaven.

Good heavens, the Japanese team has completely let loose now.

Tsunade sat behind her desk and gave him a disgruntled look.

"Stop talking nonsense!"

"I've had all the information the Hyuga family can provide brought over."

"The task of solving the bird in the cage is now entrusted to you."

She tapped on the table.

"As you know, the enemy may have already mastered the method to activate the Caged Bird Seal."

"Although they may not necessarily target ordinary Hyuga clan members, as long as this threat exists, the branch family members will never be able to rest easy."

"The members of the Hyuga branch family are all very agitated right now. If this drags on any longer, the Hyuga clan itself will start to fall into chaos."

Aoba dropped the scroll in his hand.

"Do you think I'm Doraemon, giving me whatever I want?"

What is Doraemon?

"That's not the point. Even with these original documents, it will still take some time to completely break the curse seal."

"This technique has been developing since the founding of the Hyuga clan. After hundreds of years of improvement and refinement, the sealing technique has become extremely complex."

"It can't be done so quickly."

Aoba stroked his chin. "However, to appease those who have branched out, it's not necessarily necessary to break the curse immediately."

"Oh? Do you have any good ideas?"

"I happen to have a sealing technique that can add another layer of chakra isolation barrier outside of the Caged Bird Seal."

""

This sealing technique was originally intended for Nagato, but it was never used in the end. Now it's being used on the Hyuga side.

"In this way, even if the enemy masters the hand seal to activate the cursed seal, their chakra signals cannot penetrate this seal, and therefore they will not be able to activate the cursed seal."

"Of course, this is only a temporary solution, not a cure, but it's enough to calm people's emotions about splitting up."

Tsunade slapped her thigh.

"Very good, we'll do it your way."

"I'll have the sealing team come to you later. You can teach them how to create this isolation barrier so they can apply it to the Hyuga branch family members."

"As for the task of completely breaking the caged bird trap, that's still up to you."

Aoba rolled her eyes, about to complain.

Just then, there was a knock on the office door, and a member of the secret service quickly walked in.

"Lord Hokage! Urgent information!"

"The Fire Temple was attacked by an unknown enemy, and the entire temple was razed to the ground. All the monks, including the abbot, perished!"

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Qingye's eyes.

"The Temple of Fire?"

Tsunade subconsciously looked at Aoba.

Since they know that Aoba knows about the future, whenever something happens, they immediately turn to him, since he has readily available information and solutions.

However, this time Tsunade is clearly going to be disappointed.

"Don't look at me like that, I'm not entirely sure about this either."

"Based on the information I have, the attack on the Fire Temple should not happen for several years."

And it was only because the new head priest of the Fire Temple was valuable that Kakuzu had his eye on him.

Jiraiya is currently one of the twelve ninja under the daimyo of the Land of Fire, and his bounty hasn't even increased yet, and he's already been defeated.

"If there's anything about the Fire Temple that's worth coveting—"

"Then the only thing left is the Nine-Tails' chakra."

Tsunade: ? ? ?
