The Avengers of the Uzumaki Family

"Okay, it's a deal!"

Menma nodded with a faint smile, completely unconcerned.

Previously, it was just a foreshadowing.

Now, regardless of their own strength...

The strength of his companions, or even the strength of those around him, was enough to make Menma bolder.

"Sasuke, I hope you can overcome this obstacle on your own, just like in the original story. Only then can you freely choose your own future."

Menma looked at Orochimaru across from him, who was clearly starting to show signs of greed, and thought to himself.

"Well then, Menma-kun, you must be very busy, so I won't bother you any longer. If there is any further information, I will arrange for Kabuto to send it to you as soon as possible. I hope our cooperation can continue."

Orochimaru chuckled hoarsely and said in a low voice.

"Ah, that's what I've been hoping for too."

Mianma replied softly.

"Well then, I'll excuse myself first, Menma-kun."

Orochimaru's figure swayed.

His entire figure seemed to blend into the shadows behind him.

In less than a second, it completely disappeared.

"Menma, do you want to cooperate with someone like this? He seems completely untrustworthy, exuding a dark aura."

Almost immediately after Orochimaru's aura dissipated.

On the other side.

"Da da da"

A soft footstep sounded.

next second.

Sheren's figure then appeared. Unlike before, when his eyes were empty or wrapped in gauze, Sheren's pupils were now bright, and a glimmer of brilliance was faintly revealed in his pure white eyes.

It seemed to give the attendant an extraordinary aura.

Even Menma, when she met Shiren's eyes, would feel a slight ripple in her heart.

This is the best proof that Shiren has completely gotten used to the disdainful looks he received before.

And from the very beginning, Toneri had been staying here the whole time, yet Orochimaru never found any trace of him.

Not even the slightest trace of it could be detected.

"Hehe, everyone has their own role, and Orochimaru is no exception. In order to realize our plan, he is also necessary. Moreover, he was in that organization before, and he witnessed the existence of those Rinnegan with his own eyes."

"What? It's from that organization too!"

Sheren's gaze sharpened, and a sinister look appeared in his pair of crystal-clear white eyes, which were as white as amber.

I am a sinner!

They even believe that their own fathers and grandfathers were sinners who twisted the will of their ancestors.

He must atone for his sins.

The solution is to eliminate that heretical demon statue that seeks to overthrow the world established by the ancestors Hamura and Hagoromo.

Therefore, Toneri faced the Rinnegan owner mentioned by Menma, and the organization whose goal was to collect the tailed beasts in an attempt to revive the Ten-Tails, with the utmost malice.

In other words, Mianma said the time wasn't right yet.

Otherwise, everyone would have just charged in headfirst.

"Yes, so Orochimaru does have his own role at certain crucial moments. It's more like exploitation than cooperation. And right now, he can't really influence the situation. But you, Toneri, have your eyes fully adapted? Are there any signs of something more to come?"

Menma stared intently at Toneri's Byakugan, which was clearly more distinctive than any other Hyuga clan member he had ever seen before, and asked softly.

If Toneri can really awaken his Tenseigan like in the original work, Menma's last bit of worry can be completely dispelled. Even if there is less than a one in ten thousand chance that Kaguya really breaks free, at the very least they can recreate the scene of Hagoromo and Hamura fighting against Kaguya. It is hard to say whether he will be stronger than Hagoromo, but Toneri in Tenseigan mode is very likely to be stronger than Hamura.

Because when dealing with his own mother, the goddess of the rabbit.

It is 100% certain that Hamura did not awaken the Tenseigan.

With the presence of Isshiki Otsutsuki hidden in the ninja world and those future interstellar visitors, Menma's confidence will become even stronger.

"These eyes? I can vaguely feel a special fetal movement, but it seems like I'm missing something."

Sheren hesitated for a moment, gently touched the corner of his eye, and then shook his head slightly.

Ultimately, it was interrupted some of the time compared to the original story.

Moreover, these white eyes don't belong to Hanabi.

Although it may only have a negligible impact.

But as long as there are some differences.

This could very well lead to a completely different outcome.

Therefore, Toneri himself was not very sure whether he could awaken the Tenseigan as his fathers had expected.

All I can say is that the current white eyes are subtly generating fetal movement.

There is still a sliver of hope.

"Is that so? It seems we still need to take more advanced measures."

Mianma nodded slightly, a hint of contemplation flashing in his eyes.

If one could directly awaken the Tenseigan, that would naturally be the best outcome.

If that doesn't work, Menma has backup plans. There are only two reasons why Toneri can't activate the Tenseigan like in the original story: first, his slumber was interrupted by Menma, so his bloodline power didn't truly settle to its full potential; second, the Byakugan he transplanted wasn't pure enough to allow Toneri to fully fuse the bloodline power of the two branches of Hamura's descendants.

The former can try to strengthen Toneri's bloodline by providing his own bloodline power through Menma. After all, Menma now possesses the bloodline power of both Hagoromo and Hamura after absorbing the power of that enormous Tenseigan source.

Letting the retainers absorb one's bloodline might actually work.

The latter option involves trying to use multiple pairs of Byakugan from the Hyuga clan to further stimulate Toneri's Byakugan, thereby prompting it to undergo a qualitative change and advance to the level of the Tenseigan.

This doesn't mean that Menma intends to massacre the Hyuga clan. Without a valid reason and without anyone blocking his way, Menma doesn't have that much murderous intent. However, not killing members of the Hyuga clan doesn't mean he can't obtain the Byakugan.

The Hyuga clan existed for a period of time comparable to the Uchiha and Senju clans.

Over the centuries, even if some of the white eyes left by the deceased clansmen have been lost or damaged due to the passage of time, most of them have certainly been preserved in a relatively good manner.

Menma was targeting this part of the white eyes.

Without going into too much detail, there must be at least several hundred pairs, right?

As long as it can awaken the Tenseigan in Toneri, these Byakugan are well worth the price.

"Further measures?"

Hearing Mianma's words, a look of doubt appeared on the handsome face of the attendant.

Is there any other way for Menma to awaken the Tenseigan?

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 433 A Huge Unexpected Twist

"Well, I have a few ideas for now, but whether they'll work depends on further research. Toneri, you should know who our bloodline power truly comes from. Whether it's our ancestor Hagoromo or our ancestor Hamura, it's shared. Not to mention, I've also absorbed the power of that giant Tenseigan's origin. Perhaps my bloodline power can help you advance further. If that doesn't work, then we'll have to try what your ancestors did. Of course, don't misunderstand, they are, after all, descendants of our ancestor Hamura. Without any wrongdoing, we can't resort to overly bloody methods. But as far as I know, the Hyuga clan still preserves the Byakugan of clan members who died in the last one or two hundred years. That can be used as necessary material."

Menma looked directly at the attendant and said softly.

There must be a lot of Byakugan in the Hyuga clan.

This should be considered a common practice among families that practice eye techniques. The idea of ​​respecting the dead is insignificant in the face of the interests of the entire family, including the Uchiha clan in the past.

If they want to truly develop the power of the Sharingan and study the awakening of the Mangekyou Sharingan as much as possible, they definitely need a large number of ordinary tomoe Sharingan as research material. It cannot be said that all the Uchiha leaders throughout history thought this way, but it is certain that most of them believed this.

The Uchiha clan is an example of this.

The Hyuga clan will be no exception.

It's impossible to say that the Hyuga clan wasn't envious when they saw the Uchiha clan's Sharingan undergo a qualitative change and evolve into the Mangekyou Sharingan hundreds of years ago.

The Hyuga clan also has its own pride.

He certainly couldn't accept that his Byakugan was inferior to the Sharingan.

Therefore, independently researching the Byakugan to see if it could evolve in the same way was definitely the idea of ​​the successive leaders of the Hyuga clan.

Of course, these things were initially just Mianma's own guesses.

The rest is what Orochimaru told Menma.

Because he is a research fanatic in the ninja world.

How could Orochimaru not have studied the Byakugan before?

That was originally hailed as a dojutsu on par with the Sharingan. Orochimaru, who devoted everything to studying the Byakugan, could naturally obtain information that ordinary people could not access, not to mention the assistance of Danzo, the Dark Lord of Konoha.

It's just a pity.

The power of the Hyuga clan's bloodline has deteriorated considerably.

For hundreds, even nearly a thousand years, no one has possessed the potential to awaken the Tenseigan, let alone the Mangekyou Sharingan, which is at least an evolutionary level different from the Sharingan and Rinnegan.

It's either rolling your eyes or just rolling your eyes.

Or it could evolve directly to the level of the Tenseigan.

After studying it for a long time without finding an answer, Orochimaru concluded that the Byakugan was inferior to the Sharingan.

Later, he learned the true future path of the Byakugan from Menma.

Orochimaru's dormant heart stirred again, and many things were only learned by Menma from that moment on.

Orochimaru initially wanted to take the Byakugan stored by the Hyuga clan, but he couldn't find its exact location or a suitable opportunity. Ultimately, the Hyuga clan remained the largest ninja clan in Konoha.

It's no longer the era of Hiruzen Sarutobi's rule.

If this is still managed to be accomplished by a ninja who has already defected.

It's not just the Hyuga clan that's being slapped in the face, but the entire Hidden Leaf Village.
