Konoha's lexicon of ninjas

"No, I'm just borrowing it!"

Hoshino Shizuka chuckled softly.

He has indeed not yet completed the training of the Byakugan.

However, now that Kaguya Otsutsuki is cooperating with him, she has completely opened her mind, so using her eyes for a short while is naturally no big deal.

The Byakugan in the ninja world is naturally the highest level of Kaguya Otsutsuki's, even surpassing the power of Otsutsuki Hamura, the ancestor of Otsutsuki Mikoto.

She could even be controlled by Kaguya Otsutsuki without realizing it.

However, compared to receiving a Byakugan, what shocked Otsutsuki Mikoto even more was the act of borrowing: "This... how is this possible?"

"You...you actually cooperated with such evil people? Are you trying to destroy the whole world?"

Upon hearing this, Hoshino Hideichi couldn't help but chuckle: "Aren't you the ones who want to destroy the world?"

At this moment, Ōtsutsuki Toneri, who was standing next to Ōtsutsuki Mikoto, looked up and said, "This is because the world created by the Sage of Six Paths was a failure, so we must build a new world. This is the dying wish of our ancestor, Ōtsutsuki Hamura!"

Hoshita Hideaki glanced at the still young Otsutsuki Toneri and chuckled, "A dying wish?"

Did Hamura Otsutsuki explicitly say he wanted to destroy the ninja world?

"What Hamura wants is for you to guard the Gedo Mazo, to guard Kaguya Otsutsuki, isn't it?"

"This is also one of the reasons why Hamura Otsutsuki left the ninja world for the moon back then."

Otsutsuki-no-Mikoto shouted, "The world of the Sage of Six Paths is a flawed world. Since that is the case, we who inherit Hamura's last wishes have an obligation to follow our ancestor's will, destroy the failed and flawed world, create a new world, and continue to protect it."

"Just like when our ancestors and the Sage of Six Paths defeated Kaguya Otsutsuki!"

Hoshita Hideichi understood: "I see."

"But you should know that I will never let you destroy the ninja world."

Ōtsutsuki Mikoto said, "Don't you think that the endless cycle of war is wrong?"

"Are you trying to change too?"

"Then, with your Rinnegan, if you cooperate with us, you can join forces with the Sage of Six Paths and our ancestors to create a brand new world."

Uchiha Shisui immediately retorted, "That's a completely absurd idea!"

"Does destroying the ninja world and building a new one mean there won't be any more wars?"

"What we should be doing is eliminating war, not killing everyone."

"If that's the case, then you are more cruel and evil than Kaguya Otsutsuki back then... no, you are even more cruel and evil than Kaguya Otsutsuki."

"Moreover, the ninja world has now entered a peaceful era."

"With the establishment of the Ninja Alliance, the ninja villages gradually merged, and the nations gradually merged. In the future, there will be no more wars between ninja villages or between nations."

"This is what we should be striving to do, instead of passively destroying everyone."

In Uchiha Shisui's view, Otsutsuki Mikoto had completely gone astray.

If you can't solve the problem, then deal with the person who caused it.

This might be a good approach under normal circumstances.

But to destroy the entire ninja world...

He would never agree to that!

"Shuichi, leave them to me!"

Uchiha Shisui turned to Hoshino Shuu.

He wants to use Kotoamatsukami to change the will of these two people!

Hoshita Hideichi shook his head: "No, I'll do it."

"They all possess the power of the Tenseigan; your Mangekyou Sharingan may not be able to change them."

Previously, Hoshino Shuichi's idea was to have the Hyuga clan control the giant Tenseigan and then manipulate the Alliance Fortress.

But now it seems there's a better way.

Uchiha Shisui was pleasantly surprised: "Shuichi, you've mastered my Mangekyou Sharingan?"

Xingxia Xiu nodded: "Just two days ago."

The reason I didn't use the newly mastered Kotoamatsukami, but instead borrowed Kaguya Otsutsuki's Byakugan, is because Kaguya Otsutsuki's Byakugan is more dominant against the same type of Byakugan.

Secondly, Kotoamatsukami's control is actually not as strong as Byakugan's.

Furthermore, Kaguya Otsutsuki's Byakugan is more advanced than that of Mikoto Otsutsuki and the others, and it can also resonate with the giant Tenseigan.

Otsutsuki Mikoto's expression changed upon hearing their conversation, and he shouted, "Only we can control the Tenseigan, Lord Shuichi. We can submit to you and continue to guard the moon."

This was his strategy of forbearance.

However, Hoshino Shuichi showed no intention of changing his mind: "Your ideas are too extreme."

"Therefore, for the safety of the ninja world, I must change your mind."

As he spoke, Hoshino Shuichi switched his Byakugan to the Rinne Sharingan and activated his dojutsu.

Kotoamatsukami!

Otsutsuki Mikoto's will was changed in an instant. Even though he still had the power of the Tenseigan within him, he ultimately did not awaken the Tenseigan on his own.

It makes more sense that Hoshino Shuichi's eye power is incredibly strong.

"Lord Shuichi, please correct my son's mistaken ideas!"

Ōtsutsuki bowed.

Ōtsutsuki Toneri was shocked: "You... what did you do to my father?"

"Illusion?"

"Father, please wake up!"

Otsutsuki Toneri shouted.

Hoshino Shuichi immediately activated Kotoamatsukami again.

Ōtsutsuki Toneri immediately fell silent, then bowed as well: "Lord Hideaki, I am Ōtsutsuki Toneri, and I will forever obey your will!"

Hoshita Hideichi smiled and nodded: "Very good!"

He then switched to Byakugan again and turned to look at the giant yellow Tenseigan in front of him.

He has taken over control of the Tenseigan from Otsutsuki Mikoto.

It is indeed an enormous power, worthy of being obtained by sacrificing an entire race.

"It does possess power similar to the Rinnegan, but it is not the same."

Hoshino Shizuka silently sensed it.

The Tenseigan is also his goal.

A moment later, Hoshino Shuichi raised his hand and touched the Tenseigan, and the immense power of the Tenseigan immediately surged into his body.

boom!

Green chakra permeated his entire body, transforming into a chakra cloak.

Uchiha Shisui was startled: "Shuichi, this is...?"

Hoshita Shuichi smiled and said, "The Tenseigan chakra mode is indeed very different from the Rinnegan."

Otsutsuki Mikoto praised, "As expected of Lord Shuichi, he has actually achieved this level of skill."

He could use the Tenseigan chakra before, but he couldn't do what Hoshino Shuichi did and form the Tenseigan chakra pattern.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so easily subdued by Hoshino Shuichi.

Having experienced the power of the Tenseigan, Hoshino Shuichi really wanted to say something like "It's nothing special" to show off, but then thought better of it.

That's so low-level!

Withdrawing his hand, Hoshino Shizuka said, "Then, let's take the Tenseigan and return to the ninja world!"

Otsutsuki bowed and said, "Yes, Master Shuichi!"

The reason why Hoshino Shuichi does not intend to make use of the moon immediately is that the Ninja Alliance is not yet in a position to be too aloof.

Alliance Fortress is a perfect fit right now.

……

Alliance Fortress, the first Alliance base to be completed.

Minato Namikaze and the others were shocked when they saw the enormous Tenseigan.

"So this is the Tenseigan, comparable to the Rinnegan? It certainly possesses astonishing power!"

Admiral Mifune couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

The Fourth Raikage said, "It is indeed no less powerful than the Rinnegan, but why is this eye in this shape? Shouldn't it be a pair of Tenseigan?"

Hoshita Hideichi smiled and said, "Because this was formed by the fusion of all the Byakugan of the Otsutsuki clan on the moon."

What?

Everyone's expression changed.

The Fourth Raikage couldn't help but ask, "So, the Hyuga clan of Konoha can also create such a Tenseigan?"

Minato Namikaze said, "But sacrificing everyone's eyesight isn't worth it."

Hiruzen Sarutobi also said, "Such power is strong, but it is not the right path."

The Fourth Raikage scoffed, "If we reach a desperate situation, this method might not be impossible."

Ignoring the argument, Hoshishita Hideaki said, "The Tenseigan is controlled by Otsutsuki Mikoto, and the power of the Tenseigan can be used to control the movement of the fortress."

Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced at Otsutsuki Mikoto and said, "Shuichi, should we select people from the Hyuga clan to take turns guarding the area?"

Hoshita Shuichi remained silent, while Ōtsutsuki Mikoto said, "Of course."

"However, ordinary Byakugan users cannot directly manipulate the Tenseigan. To use the power of the Tenseigan freely, one must integrate one's Byakugan into the Tenseigan."

Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned slightly upon hearing this: "I see."

Otsutsuki continued, "Furthermore, unless one possesses equal power, only the Byakugan user can touch the Tenseigan; otherwise, their chakra will be drained by the Tenseigan."

Everyone was startled upon hearing this.

Hoshita Hideichi said, "Teacher, regarding the issue of controlling the Tenseigan, we still need to consult the Hyuga clan beforehand."

Minato Namikaze nodded: "I will discuss it with Chief Hiashi."

Given the current state of the Hyuga clan, it is clearly not appropriate for them to activate the Tenseigan.

Because of the system of dividing the family into branches, there are few members in the main branch, and only one member per generation.

Hiashi Hyuga couldn't possibly gouge out his own eyes, could he?

Hinata Hyuga is clearly even less suitable now.

As for the division of the family property...

I'm afraid even the main Hyuga family wouldn't dare let a branch family member take over the Tenseigan.

If he were to develop other intentions, he might use the power of the Tenseigan to break the Caged Bird Seal, and then follow the example of the Otsutsuki clan on the moon, destroying the main family.

But does Hyuga Hiashi have the courage to remove the caged bird?

The Otsutsuki clan on the moon serves as a cautionary tale.

……

Leaving behind Otsutsuki Takatoshi and handing over Otsutsuki Toneri to his teacher, Namikaze Minato, Hoshishita Shuichi then headed home.

He had no interest in taking Otsutsuki Toneri with him, but Otsutsuki Toneri could go and keep Naruto company.

There's also Haku, Kimimaro, Suigetsu, and Hoshino Shuichi, who had Suigetsu bring them to Konoha as well.

A generation that will produce many strong individuals in the future!

……

Time flies, and soon the Chunin Exams began.

However, Hoshino Shuichi didn't pay much attention, mainly because there weren't any outstanding individuals in this year's cohort that he remembered.

The first round of the Chunin Exams took place in Konoha, while the second round, a team competition, took place on a deserted island.

In addition to the original few wild animals, the Alliance also captured many ferocious beasts and put them on this deserted island.

In addition, a small number of ninja beasts were mixed in.

Xiaobai, who didn't need to fight, joined in the fun and became the king of beasts on the deserted island.

The third singles match of the Chunin Exams, as well as the final performance for advancement, were arranged inside the Alliance Fortress.

This is also the first time that the interior of the Alliance Fortress has been shown to the outside world.

Without a doubt, this Chunin Exam was a great success.

This was the first time the unity of the Ninja Alliance was demonstrated, further promoting cooperation and integration among the various ninja villages.

The daimyo also thoroughly enjoyed the spectacle, especially the daimyo of the Land of Wind and the Land of Rain, who had received advance notice of the two countries' renovation plans and had personally witnessed the appearance of the alliance fortress, so they were filled with anticipation.

So, after watching the spectacle, the daimyo of the major powers were invited to the conference room to hold a meeting with many other figures.

When Minato Namikaze, who was hosting the meeting, proposed the plan to renovate the Land of Rain and the Land of Wind, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire frowned.

The Land of Rain is one thing, but the ninja villages have already been incorporated into Konoha, and its land area is limited. Even if it becomes stronger, it won't pose a threat to the Land of Fire.

But the Land of Wind is different.

The daimyo of the Land of Fire always remembered the promises Hoshino Shuichi made to him, and wanted to unify all the countries.

Now that the Ninja Alliance has been established with Konoha at its head, the involvement of ninjas will be greatly reduced.

With the power of the Land of Fire, it is completely capable of suppressing other countries.

However, if the Land of Wind becomes stronger, it will obviously make the dream of unification of the Land of Fire's daimyo even more difficult to achieve.

Therefore, the daimyo of the Land of Fire glanced at the other daimyo and said, "The affairs of the Land of Wind and the Land of Rain don't necessarily need to go through us, do they?"

Minato Namikaze immediately replied, "No, this plan actually involves many countries."

"First, there's the Land of Rain, the Land of Rivers, and the Land of Wind, which we'll be transforming. We can use waterways to create a transportation network that will make trade much faster."

"The Land of Wind has a lot of resources, which can be transported out. And goods from other countries can also be more easily transported into the Land of Wind for sale."

"A thriving business means more tax revenue, esteemed lords, I don't need to explain that, do I?"

Upon hearing this, the daimyo of the Land of Fire pondered for a moment.

There is indeed profit to be made in this.

Of course, this small amount of benefit is insignificant compared to his grand ambition of unification.

However, he was unable to stop the domestic businessmen from implementing such a plan.

Behind the merchants were noble ministers.

"In that case, we have no choice but to agree."

"Furthermore, this would also allow us to send spies, or even use commerce to bribe the nobles of the Wind Kingdom..."

The daimyo of the Land of Fire recalled Hoshinobu Shuichi's previous actions against the Land of Grass.

He felt he could easily copy the homework.

Then, the daimyo of the Land of Fire, who was covering half of his face with a fan, laughed and said, "If that's the case, then there's no problem."

The Land of Lightning, the Land of Earth, and the Land of Water naturally had no objections.

Both are profitable.

In particular, the Land of Earth, because the plan mentions that the changes to the Land of Rain will also change the Land of Earth, increasing rainfall within the Land of Earth and altering its climate to some extent, which will also enrich the Land of Earth's resources.

Next, we discussed the mission.

All missions were assigned by the Ninja Alliance, a fact that the five great nations had already discussed privately with the Kage, so there were no obstacles encountered.

Other smaller countries have no say.

Soon, all the proposals were agreed upon.

The meeting lasted less than an hour and went incredibly smoothly.

However, while the other daimyo began to tour the Alliance Fortress, the daimyo of the five great nations were invited to another meeting room.

"What, unify all the other small countries?" (End of Chapter)
