The Tenseigan started from the Hyuga main family.

"Giving up the Ten-Tails isn't out of the question. However, I want to know how to carve a wedge into a container."

Hinata Sawatatsu did not immediately refuse Momoshiki Otsutsuki's request, which was somewhat like a handout, but instead proposed a deal.

The key to the Otsutsuki clan's ability to transcend life and death lies in their use of the Karma seal for reincarnation and resurrection. Even if the physical body is destroyed, the soul will not return to the Pure Land, but will wait for the Karma seal on the vessel to gradually thaw, thus completing the resurrection.

To some extent, Karma can be considered an advanced version of the Reanimation Jutsu. Its advantage is that each reincarnation does not cause any damage to the soul, and the thawing of Karma will gradually replace the body of the vessel with the genes of the Otsutsuki clan, so that there will be no rejection due to insufficient compatibility between the body and soul. After each successful reincarnation, the power can be fully inherited.

When Hyuga Zetsu read Otsutsuki Isshiki's memories, he focused on finding out how to carve the Karma seal, but he came up empty-handed, which left Hyuga Zetsu with deep regret.

With the Otsutsuki Momoshiki duo arriving in the ninja world ahead of schedule, Hyuga Zechen naturally didn't want to miss this golden opportunity.

Even though they are confident in their own abilities, who would refuse an extra life?

Chapter 244 Handing over the Ten-Tails, is possible

"Hyuga Zetsu, are you going to betray Konoha and become an accomplice in their destruction of the ninja world?"

Before Momoshiki could respond, Jiraiya, his face filled with righteous indignation, couldn't help but rebuke him.

In response to Jiraiya's accusations, Hyuga Zechen merely glanced at him indifferently. An invisible wave surged from his Byakugan, and the overwhelming pressure caused Jiraiya to sway and immediately faint.

White Eyes - Intimidation.

"hateful!"

As Tobirama Senju raised his hands to form hand seals and launch a ninjutsu attack, his face contorted with rage, Hashirama Senju grabbed him and shook his head, indicating that he should not act rashly.

Just dealing with the Otsutsuki Momoshiki duo was enough to exhaust them. Hyuga Zechen's chakra pressure was even greater than Otsutsuki Momoshiki's. Once they completely broke off relations, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Most importantly, Orochimaru, as the one who cast the Impure World Reincarnation technique, walked behind Hyuga Sawatatsu, adopting a subservient posture, making Senju Hashirama even more hesitant to act rashly.

Although Hashirama Senju was extremely powerful and could break free from Orochimaru's Impure World Reincarnation at any time, it didn't mean others could. Once Orochimaru released the Impure World Reincarnation, their numerical advantage would vanish.

Could Hashirama Senju, who couldn't unleash his full power, defeat Momoshiki Otsutsuki or Sawa Tatsumi Hyuga?

"Want to uncover the secrets of the Wedge?"

Momoshiki Otsutsuki's gaze sharpened, and after only a few breaths of thought, he opened his palm. The red Rinnegan in his palm emitted a faint red light and released a pale green spiritual orb.

"This contains what you want. As long as you swear an oath by the bloodline of the Otsutsuki within you to hand over the Ten-Tails to me, it will be yours."

With a chilling smile on his lips, Momoshiki Otsutsuki continued without waiting for Hinata Sawa's reply.

"Out of consideration for our shared bloodline, I'll give you a friendly reminder. Anyone who swears an oath by blood will be punished by the will of the Otsutsuki if they dare to break it. Believe me, if that time comes, death will be your best outcome."

When the punishment of the Otsutsuki will was mentioned, even the usually fearless Otsutsuki Momoshiki had a hint of fear in his eyes.

"Of course, I would never joke about my own life."

A hint of a smile flashed deep in Hyuga Zechen's eyes. He raised his palm, spread his five fingers, and the golden Rinnegan between his eyebrows flashed. A pale green spiritual orb shot out and landed in Hyuga Zechen's hand.

After closing his eyes and sensing to confirm that there was no danger in the spiritual orb, Hyuga Zechen crushed it and used his Tenseigan to browse through the information contained within.

Besides the instructions on how to make a blood oath, the spiritual orb also contained a lot of information about wedges, but it lacked the most crucial core content.

"Well, as long as you swear a blood oath, the rest will be handed over to you immediately."

Momoshiki Otsutsuki watched Hyuga Sawatatsu's changing expressions, his heart filled with smugness.

For these inferior creatures, nothing is more tempting than immortality.

Momoshiki Otsutsuki believed that Hyuga Sawatatsu would be no exception.

"I ask the supreme Otsutsuki to bear witness that as long as Otsutsuki Momoshiki shares everything about Karma, I am willing to give him a Ten-Tails."

Without needing Momoshiki Otsutsuki to urge him, Hyuga Sawatatsu made the blood oath as required.

"Big brother, that kid has most likely been tricked by that Otsutsuki. When he separates the Ten-Tails, take the opportunity to use Wood Release to seize it. We absolutely cannot let the Ten-Tails fall into the hands of the Otsutsuki."

Tobirama Senju placed one hand on Hashirama Senju's shoulder, communicating secretly by transferring chakra.

"understood."

Hashirama Senju always trusted his younger brother's judgment and immediately gave his reply.

“Very good, this is the remaining content of the wedge.”

Seeing that Hyuga Zechen had indeed fulfilled his vow, Otsutsuki Momoshiki's face lit up with ecstasy. He once again condensed a sphere of spiritual light and actively controlled it to fly towards Hyuga Zechen.

The method of training with the Karma seal is not a secret among the Otsutsuki clan; it is a fundamental technique that every Otsutsuki member must learn. Otsutsuki Momoshiki naturally felt he had gotten a great deal by exchanging it for the Ten-Tails.

"So, this is the secret of the wedge."

When Hinata Zechen opened his eyes again, a look of realization appeared on his face, and a faint diamond pattern appeared on his palm.

With his current strength, Hyuga Zechen could master the complete training method in the blink of an eye, provided he obtained it.

"Then, it is your turn to fulfill your oath."

Momoshiki Otsutsuki slowly floated in front of Hyuga Zetsu, his eyes filled with anticipation.

"You'd better keep this Ten-Tails safe."

To Momoshiki Otsutsuki's surprise, Hyuga Zetsu did not release the seal on the Ten-Tails within him. Instead, he casually waved his hand, opening a spatial gate through which a giant castle was faintly visible.

With a roar, a ferocious beast with ten tails and a single eye emerged from the spatial passage and appeared before everyone's eyes.

"Is this the Ten-Tails that belongs to Kaguya?"

Momoshiki Otsutsuki's gaze sharpened as he realized that the origin of this Ten-Tails was incomplete, and he immediately deduced the origin of the second Ten-Tails.

"You... you actually exploited a loophole in the oath."

Momoshiki Otsutsuki shifted his gaze from the Ten-Tails, glaring at Hyuga Sawatatsu with gritted teeth, his heart filled with resentment.

This Ten-Tails is not the same as that Ten-Tails. Hyuga Zetsu's actions made Otsutsuki Momoshiki realize that his wishful thinking of obtaining the Ten-Tails from Hyuga Zetsu's body had been seen through by the other party, not to mention that after Hyuga Zetsu lost his status as the Ten-Tails' Jinchuriki, his strength plummeted, and then he took the opportunity to manipulate the other party.

"Well, this is also a Ten-Tails. I haven't broken my promise, have I?"

Seeing the smile on Hyuga Zechen's face, Otsutsuki Momoshiki wanted to punch him, but in the end he raised his hand, wanting to control the other Ten-Tails first.

Even if the Ten-Tails' origin is incomplete, as long as it takes a little time to infuse it with the chakra of the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails, it can still meet the basic requirements for planting the Divine Tree.

As for the Ten-Tails inside Hyuga Zetsu...

A fierce glint flashed in Momoshiki Otsutsuki's eyes, and he immediately made up his mind.

Since the other party was ungrateful, he had no choice but to personally pull the Ten-Tails out of Hyuga Zechen's body.

I must let these inferior creatures who have tainted the bloodline of the Otsutsuki know the consequences of their deception of Momoshiki.

It seems we have to sacrifice Kim Jong-un ahead of schedule.

"Big brother, make your move!"

Just as Momoshiki's palm was getting closer and closer to the Ten-Tails, Tobirama Senju suddenly let out a low shout, and an incomparably sharp jet of water shot out from his mouth, slicing towards Momoshiki.

Water Escape: Water-Severing Waves.

At the same time, a deep eyeshadow appeared on Hashirama Senju's face, and the character "座" (seat) appeared in his raised right palm.

Immortal Technique: Kuo'an Enters the Palace with Hands Down.

Chapter 245 Otsutsuki Transformation

Suddenly, a thick wooden stalk grew rapidly from Hashirama Senju's shoulder, transforming into an enormous wooden hand. A huge "seat" character appeared in the palm of the hand, which pressed down on the Ten-Tails' head.

Suppressed by Wood Release and sealed by Sage Art, the faint red light emanating from the Ten-Tails' single eye gradually faded, and its eyelids became incredibly heavy, giving it a drowsy appearance.

"You lowly ants, get out of my way!"

Although it was only an incomplete Ten-Tails, it was still an irresistible temptation for Momoshiki Otsutsuki. Seeing the Senju brothers trying to stop him, he let out an angry roar.

Momoshiki Otsutsuki's red Rinnegan flashed in the palm of his hand, instantly absorbing the incoming water blast. Without hesitation, he raised his other hand and struck out again, the sharp, high-pressure water slicing the wooden hand pressing against the Ten-Tails' head in two, breaking Hashirama Senju's control over the Ten-Tails.

Seeing the red light reappear in the single eye of the Ten-Tails' head, and its ten giant tails begin to dance wildly, attacking anything that tried to approach indiscriminately, Hashirama Senju's eyes were filled with determination as he raised his hands and began to form hand seals rapidly.

"Wood Release: Descent of the Flower Tree World!"

Dozens of extremely thick vines shot out from the ground, like dragons rushing towards the Ten-Tailed Fox. Several vines intertwined and wrapped around each of the Ten-Tailed Fox's tails, almost binding the behemoth into a giant cocoon, with only its head managing to escape unscathed.

Then, one by one, huge and bright red flower buds began to slowly bloom, their layers of petals unfolding to reveal the yellow stamens inside, and pollen like a thick fog rising up and spreading in all directions.

"Is this...poisonous pollen?"

Enveloped in yellow pollen, even though he was holding his breath, Momoshiki Otsutsuki still felt his body begin to go numb, his consciousness began to blur, and his eyelids became heavy, making him want to just lie down and sleep.

As a bright light flashed from the red Rinnegan in his palm, an invisible repulsive force erupted from Momoshiki Otsutsuki, forming a 360-degree shockwave that cleared away all the pollen in the vicinity.

Shinra Tensei!

"So, all of this was your calculation?"

Looking at the Ten-Tails, which had been controlled by the Senju brothers, Momoshiki Otsutsuki was filled with resentment at being fooled, and his sharp gaze fell on Hyuga Zetsu.

"I've already entrusted the Ten-Tails to you. Whether you can protect it or not is none of my concern, is it?"

With a faint smile on his face, Hyuga Zechen slowly flew in front of Otsutsuki Momoshiki, preventing Momoshiki from continuing to try and seize the Ten-Tails.

"You forced me to do this!"

After realizing he had been fooled, Momoshiki Otsutsuki became incredibly ferocious, and the last trace of hesitation in his heart completely vanished.

"You lowly creature who has tainted the Otsutsuki bloodline, witness our actions! Soon, you will regret the choice you just made!"

Momoshiki Otsutsuki raised his arm, his red Rinnegan aimed at Kinshiki Otsutsuki, who was bound by the wooden dragon and unable to move. A huge suction force erupted from his palm, tearing apart the wooden dragon's body. Kinshiki's eyes widened, and he shot towards Momoshiki Otsutsuki like a cannonball.

Rinnegan - Universal Guidance.

"Come on, Momoshiki-sama, it seems your time to devour my chakra has come, just as my fathers bestowed their power upon me. Come on, do not hesitate!"

Despite having a premonition of his fate, Kinshiki Otsutsuki showed no resistance on his face, but rather was filled with fervor, as if he were about to accomplish something incredibly sacred.

"That's natural."

Momoshiki Otsutsuki, on the other hand, looked completely at it as if it were the most natural thing in the world. The red light that surged from his Rinnegan completely enveloped Kinshiki, causing the Otsutsuki clansman to scream in agony.

"Don't think about it!"

Watching Kinshiki Otsutsuki transform into a palm-sized chakra fruit amidst the red light, Hyuga Zetsu knew what he would face next. He also raised his palm and used the Universal Pull technique to try to stop Momoshiki Otsutsuki from obtaining the chakra fruit.

However, to Hyuga Zechen's surprise, the chakra fruit seemed to have its own consciousness, swaying slightly in mid-air and releasing a spacetime force, causing the chakra fruit to enter a ethereal state, thus causing Hyuga Zechen's gravity to lose its target.

Prepare to face death.
