Konoha: From the moment I was adopted by Tsunade

Chapter 300 Opening Eyes

Kabuto Yakushi has been researching the Tenseigan for a long time.

However, due to the lack of reference points and the high level of difficulty, there have been no significant progress to date.

Now, Natsume has presented a true member of the Otsutsuki clan.

Yakushi Kabuto suddenly achieved a leapfrog breakthrough, going from nothing to something.

It's obviously much easier to deduce the process from the result.

Although Natsume didn't consider Otsutsuki Toneri to be a member of the Otsutsuki clan.

He is merely a descendant of Hamura Otsutsuki, and there is still an extremely long road ahead of him to reach the level of Kaguya Otsutsuki.

However, the evolved Tenseigan is enough.

A week later, Natsume received a message from Kabuto Yakushi that the experiment could begin.

He disappeared from the Hokage's office and appeared in the Hyuga clan.

"Lord Hokage."

Someone spotted him immediately and bowed respectfully.

Since the Hyuga clan abolished the main family and branch family, the atmosphere has become quite different, exuding a vibrant vitality.

At the same time, he held Natsume in even higher esteem.

Because they know that without him, the current situation wouldn't exist.

After all, all the changes started with Hinata Hyuga.

Perhaps things were already different the moment Hyuga Hizashi became the Hokage's advisor.

"Is your clan leader here?"

After Natsume nodded in response, he asked another question.

Because he was the clan head, Hiashi Hyuga did not hold any official position in Konoha.

He rarely goes out on missions, so he can be considered a homebody.

"He's in his study."

The young ninja quickly replied.

"Thanks."

Natsume turned and walked towards the study.

He was already very familiar with the structure of Hinata Hyuga's family.

You wouldn't go wrong even with your eyes closed.

It can be considered his second home.

This is thanks to the fact that he feeds Hinata Hyuga every day.

It's worth mentioning that Hyuga Hiashi and Hyuga Rinka now know about their daughter's reputation as a glutton.

After the initial surprise came delight.

Because everyone knows that chakra originates from mental and physical strength.

The more you eat, the more energy you have.

So much so that he even complained a little that Natsume and Hinata told him too late.

But they dare not say it outright.

When he arrived at the study, Natsume knocked on the door.

"Please come in."

Hiashi Hyuga's voice rang out.

Natsume opened the door.

"H...Hokage-sama."

Hiashi Hyuga quickly stood up and greeted him, "Why did you come in person? You could have just sent someone to let me know what's going on."

His attitude can be described as humble.

Theoretically speaking, Natsume is his daughter's brother and teacher.

He is one generation higher in terms of seniority.

But he didn't dare to act recklessly or put on airs.

"There's something I need to do, and I'm just passing by."

Natsume smiled and nodded, saying, "It's an advanced form of the Byakugan."

"what?"

Hiashi Hyuga looked surprised upon hearing this, thinking he had misheard. "What kind of advancement is there in the Byakugan?"

For the Hyuga clan, awakening their Sharingan is remarkably simple.

Anyone who trains will eventually open their eyes at a certain age.

There is no emotional stimulation involved.

However, as one gets older, the white eye movement stops.

Take Hiashi Hyuga as an example.

He is the clan leader, and putting aside the amount of chakra he possesses, his Byakugan skills are actually just average.

Not much taller than others.

Unlike the Uchiha clan, the Mangekyou Sharingan and the Three-Tomoe Sharingan are worlds apart.

"The eye roll has advanced."

Natsume didn't explain further, but asked, "Where's Hinata?"

Hiashi Hyuga hesitated, feeling a pang of unease, as if a cat were scratching at his heart.

You've just gotten to the exciting part, so I'm not going to go on; it's torture.

He let out a breath and said, "She went to the ninja academy today."

"I'll go find her. You go to the research department and see Pharmacist Kabuto."

Natsume nodded and said.

Research Department?

Hiashi Hyuga looked puzzled.

But Natsume didn't give him a chance to ask questions and disappeared before his eyes.

"An advanced form of the Byakugan?"

Hiashi Hyuga muttered to himself, "If it's true, the Hyuga clan will have an unprecedented opportunity."

He recalled the glare Natsume had given Elder Hinata Hiroshi when he took Natsume away.

Could it be that they've discovered something new in such a short time?

Hiashi Hyuga trembled, his awe of Natsume deepening.

Because the Hyuga clan has never discovered the secret of the Byakugan in all these years.

He snapped out of his daze, quickly changed his shoes, and hurriedly walked outside.

Natsume appeared at the Ninja Academy.

School was not over yet.

He quickly found Hinata Hyuga.

She was not far from Hinata Hanabi's classroom.

It wasn't that he was idle; rather, he was cultivating himself.

Even Natsume would be ashamed of his efforts.

Well, actually he's quite hardworking.

Add points to Dark Blue.

"Natsume-nii-san."

Hinata Hyuga saw him and a smile immediately appeared on her face as she jogged over.

She must have been practicing for a while, as there was a thin layer of sweat on her face.

Natsume reached out and wiped her forehead.

A stream of chakra flowed through.

Hinata Hyuga's rapid breathing calmed down.

She felt the warmth from Natsume's large hand, and her face flushed slightly.

"Thank you, Natsume-nii-san."

She lowered her head and said.

"Are you waiting for Hanabi to get out of school?"

Natsume withdrew his hand and asked.

"Um."

Hinata Hyuga explained, "I just got back from a mission with Sasuke and the others yesterday. I didn't have much to do today, so I came early to wait."

"How much longer until school ends?"

Natsume asked again.

"Half an hour."

Hinata Hyuga looked up and said, "If something comes up, it won't be a problem. Even if no one picks me up, Hanabi will get home by herself."

"Okay then."

Natsume originally planned to have someone else come and pick up Hinata Hanabi.

But Hinata Hyuga is right, she's not a three-year-old, she won't get lost.

"Come with me."

Natsume reached out and grabbed her shoulder.

Two people appeared in the research department building.

"Lord Hokage."

Hiashi Hyuga had already arrived ahead of schedule.

If it's a walk, it probably won't be that fast.

It seems he's quite anxious.

That's normal.

This is, after all, a matter of giving someone the cold shoulder.

"Father."

Hinata Hyuga was a little surprised, but she still took the initiative to greet her.

"Hinata is here too."

Hiashi Hyuga was equally astonished.

Why is there still talk about Hinata Hyuga?

"Let's go."

Kabuto didn't give them time to catch up.

He was already eager to try.

As a researcher, this is the moment I look forward to the most.

Once you achieve something, there are countless possibilities to follow.

This world places great importance on lineage.

The greatest bloodline may be born in his hands today.

Kabuto felt quite excited.

He opened the door and entered the laboratory.

On the white experimental table, Otsutsuki Toneri lay unconscious.

Both Hiashi and Hinata looked at him curiously.

I vaguely sensed a connection through blood.

Is he a member of the Hyuga clan?

They were puzzled, but didn't ask any further questions.

"Hinata Hyuga, lie down."

Kabuto pointed to the empty lab bench next door and said.

"etc."

Hiashi Hyuga couldn't help but ask, "What's going on?"

He might not care about others, but not Hinata Hyuga.

She is his daughter, and the future of the Hyuga clan.

He naturally wanted to find out the details.

Hinata Hyuga also looked at Natsume.

However, she was not worried.

"An advanced version of the Byakugan."

Natsume bent down, picked up Hinata Hyuga, and slowly walked towards the experimental table.

A sudden action.

By the time Hinata Hyuga realized what was happening, she was already in his warm embrace.

Her face immediately turned bright red.

"Don't worry, there won't be any problems."

Natsume placed her on the lab table, patted her head, and said, "It'll be over in a minute."

Even if something goes wrong, it won't endanger your life.

In that case, he can use his fate value to make amends.

Hiashi Hyuga hesitated, but ultimately said nothing. He just stared at Kabuto Yakushi with a tense expression, trying to see what he was planning to do.

Natsume smiled at Hinata Hyuga and took a few steps back.

Kabuto put on white gloves and began the surgery.

Since Toneri Otsutsuki didn't have eyes, it wasn't a matter of replacing eyes, but rather replacing chakra.

This surgery is more complicated than an eye transplant.

Fortunately, Hinata Hyuga has a very pure bloodline.

The surgery was completed after about two hours.

Hinata Hyuga woke up.

She opened her eyes, and her originally white pupils had turned a captivating pale blue.

An invisible sense of oppression spread outwards.

"Wait, wait, wait!"

Hiashi Hyuga's eyes widened, and his body trembled.

Powerful and of the same origin.

This is undoubtedly an advanced level of eye roll.

The thought of the Hyuga clan being able to awaken the Tenseigan filled him with uncontrollable excitement.

The future looks promising!

Natsume glanced at him but didn't tell him how difficult it was.

He'll find out eventually anyway.

Hinata Hyuga was able to awaken the Tenseigan purely because of her own talent and the chakra of the Otsutsuki clan.

However, the Otsutsuki clan is very small, and this method of activation is almost impossible to replicate.

Fortunately, there's Yakushi Kabuto, so there's still some hope.

However, Natsume estimates that even if he could activate it, its power would be far less than Hinata Hyuga's Tenseigan.

But it is still a rare step forward.

"Hinata, how are you feeling?"

Natsume asked.

Hinata tilted her head, the confusion on her face gradually disappearing.

A massive influx of information.

She had a basic understanding of the Tenseigan's abilities.

But precisely because of this, she looked at Natsume with considerable shock.

This gift is more valuable than anything else.

She stretched out her hand, and green chakra beads instantly condensed in her palm.

Natsume didn't feel anything.

Hiashi Hyuga and Kabuto Yakushi felt a chill run down their spines, a strong sense of crisis welling up inside them.

The Tenseigan possesses several powerful eye techniques.

For example, Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion and Gold Wheel Reincarnation Explosion.

Their foundation is this green chakra rosary.

In addition, there is the Tenseigan Chakra Mode, which can condense Truth-Seeking Balls and use Yin-Yang Release techniques.

In short, it's not much worse than the Rinnegan.

"Go back and adjust well."

Natsume patted Hinata Hyuga's head and said, "Your eyes are already the Tenseigan, which is comparable to the eyes of the Sage of Six Paths."

The Sage of Six Paths' eyes are the Rinnegan, which is not a secret to many people.

For example, Hiashi Hyuga knows this.

Upon hearing this, he was stunned, and then his body began to tremble.

These terrifying eyes are actually an advanced form of Byakugan?

The future of the Hyuga clan is even brighter than he imagined.

"Um."

Hinata Hyuga withdrew her chakra, but the light in her eyes never disappeared.

Because that is the mark of the Tenseigan.

The circles are the same as those in the Rinnegan.

Natsume glanced at it twice.

Yeah, it's pretty good.

It doesn't affect Hinata Hyuga's beauty.

Natsume sent the two back to the Hyuga clan.

"Um... Lord Hokage..."

Once Hiashi Hyuga had steadied himself, he couldn't help but ask, "How did you awaken the Tenseigan? And what was that boy all about?"

He witnessed the entire surgery performed by Yakushi Kabuto.

Although he didn't know Otsutsuki Toneri, he still sensed the transfer of chakra.

The awakening of the Tenseigan must be related to him.

"It's quite complicated to explain."

Natsume thought for a moment and said, "Go ask Kabuto Yakushi when you have time. In the future, if you want your Byakugan to advance, you'll have to see if his experiments are successful."

Yakushi Kabuto?

Hiashi Hyuga was stunned.

I thought it was Natsume's doing, but it turns out it was him.

He didn't know anything about Kabuto Yakushi before.

All I know is that he was Tsunade's student and a medical ninja.

It seems I need to work on building relationships.

After all, he had mastered the advanced version of the Byakugan.

After selling Kabuto Yakushi, Natsume left the Hyuga clan in a very elegant manner.

A few days later, Kaguya Otsutsuki returned to Konoha Village.

"How is it?"

Natsume asked with some anticipation.

Kaguya Otsutsuki did not answer; her Byakugan eyes shifted slightly, and a faint purple hue suddenly appeared.

It is the Reincarnation Eye.

Moreover, its color is different from Hinata Hyuga's and that of the Tenseigan.

It's just unknown how much power Kaguya Otsutsuki gained.

But regardless, this is a good thing.

"Come with me."

Natsume led her to the rooftop terrace.

A tall tower had already been built at this time.

"Put the Great Reincarnation Eye inside."

Natsume pointed to the tower and said, "It would be best to create a barrier to cover it up."

Direct display can naturally deter the enemy.

But hiding makes it easier to play the role of a cunning person, lest they dare not cause trouble.

Kaguya Otsutsuki nodded and raised her hand.

The great Reincarnation Eye returned to its original state and was obscured by the tower.

Immediately, she set up another barrier.

Natsume began to ponder who should be chosen to guard the area.

Considering the possibility of its use, it would be best to use members of the Hyuga clan.

It's a pity that Hinata and Hanabi are too young; otherwise, entrusting them to them would be the most reassuring option.

However, it's not usually that troublesome.

Just let the secret agents take turns on guard duty.

It's best not to tell them what's inside.

Natsume and Kaguya Otsutsuki returned to the office.

The two people were sitting on the sofa.

Natsume gently squeezed her hand and asked, "Will you be staying in the office during this time?"

He now realizes how wise his decision was to have a room in the Hokage's office.

It's not a big problem to let someone stay temporarily for a few days.

Kaguya Otsutsuki's eyes brightened slightly, and she nodded.

If it were someone else, they might find the conditions to be mediocre.

But for her, there was undoubtedly a lot of time to spend with Natsume.

It's the perfect life.

However, Natsume knew what she was thinking and quickly made a three-point agreement with her.

Avoid overworking yourself every day.

Moreover, with outsiders present, one cannot show their face or be discovered.

This kind of life will end after Nagato attacks Konoha.

So much so that Kaguya Otsutsuki was considering whether to kill Nagato halfway through his journey, ensuring he would never have the chance to reach Konoha.

That way, she wouldn't have to leave the Hokage's office.

Four thousand characters.
