"This is what Hyūga Hiashi asked to give you!"
In Konoha, Uchiha Keizumi placed the Tenseigan he had been carrying behind him into Neji's hands. Even though Keizumi knew that if he kept this Tenseigan for a long ti, it could further enhance the power of his own Tenseigan, from beginning to end, he had never once considered taking it for himself.
"He…"
Neji looked at the Tenseigan before him. He could feel the sense of familiarity emanating from it. Then he glanced at Sarutobi Hiruzen, Tsunade, and Jiraiya standing behind Uchiha Keizumi, as well as the ANBU shinobi.
At this mont, Neji roughly understood—understood what exactly the object before him was.
"He should have told you sothing. You've probably already guessed what this is."
"The Hyūga Clan… including Hyūga Hiashi's eyes, are all here."
Keizumi looked at Neji. He felt that Neji seed a little different, but he couldn't quite pinpoint what exactly had changed.
"He's already… dead?"
Back in the Konoha prison, after hearing those things from Hiashi, Neji had already realized that Hiashi might be planning to do sothing drastic.
But suddenly learning that the Hyūga Clan had nearly been wiped out still left Neji unable to calm himself for a long ti.
Only after a while did he finally squeeze out that question from his throat.
"The Tenseigan is very powerful. I hope you can use it well."
Keizumi did not answer Neji's question. He had already sensed it—Neji's sense of justice seed to have shifted slightly. It was still justice, but it now seed as though it might co into conflict with his own.
"No matter how strong it is… it's still inferior to the Sharingan, isn't it?"
Neji murmured softly. In the end, he accepted the massive Tenseigan with a complicated expression.
Neji had already figured it out. Uchiha Keizumi and Hyūga Hiashi must have fought. And since the Great Tenseigan was now in front of him, Hiashi's fate no longer needed to be said.
At this mont, Neji simply didn't know—didn't know how to face Hinata and Hanabi.
Should he tell Hinata that everything Hiashi had done was for her sake?
Neji didn't want Hinata to bear such a heavy psychological burden.
"Is it really okay to give the Tenseigan to Neji?"
"At his age, possessing such overwhelming power might not necessarily be a good thing!"
Tsunade had also heard the conversation between Neji and Keizumi. While the Tenseigan rightfully belonged to the Hyūga Clan, handing it over to Neji like this made her worry that he might head down so extre path.
"As long as he holds onto justice, Neji should be fine… right?"
At so point, Mitarashi Anko had appeared beside Tsunade. She had originally been enjoying a rare day off, but as a kunoichi, her vigilance—and over a month of continuous patrols—had made her notice the unusual movents at the Hyūga compound.
Later, she followed Uchiha Keizumi and the others to the Valley of the End and witnessed that battle firsthand.
anwhile, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Jiraiya simply watched as Uchiha Keizumi handed the Tenseigan to Neji, offering no further comnts.
As Neji accepted the Tenseigan, the tragedy that had befallen the Hyūga Clan finally ca to a complete end.
Keizumi didn't say anything more. He simply headed straight back toward his ho.
He was already struggling to suppress it—struggling to suppress the power now intertwining within his eyes!
The slight fusion of Tenseigan and Rinnegan ocular power had begun to give birth to a new force, causing both of Keizumi's eyes to undergo a transformation beyond the comprehension of ordinary shinobi—even beyond the understanding of the Uchiha and Hyūga clans.
"The power originating from Ōtsutsuki Kaguya… or rather, from the Ten-Tails!"
"Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo and Ōtsutsuki Hamura are Kaguya's children. They inherited the Sharingan and the Byakugan respectively. The Sharingan, when evolved to its limit, becos the Rinnegan—a power at the level of the Six Paths."
"And when the Byakugan evolves into the Tenseigan, it too reaches the level of the Six Paths."
"The Tenseigan and Rinnegan power within are both still sparse. But when they intertwine, they have already begun to give rise to a trace of the Creation Power!"
Keizumi felt the changes in his eyes. Although this trace of power was extrely faint, the transformation it brought him was enormous.
With a thought, a Truth-Seeking Ball actually appeared behind him out of thin air!
Even his body began to gradually be covered by a divine robe.
"So I can already briefly enter Six Paths Mode?"
Keizumi sensed his current strength. That trace of the creation power acted like a special catalyst, allowing him—despite not having fully awakened the Tenseigan and Rinnegan—to enter Six Paths Mode through another thod.
Not only that, within Six Paths Mode, he could feel his Rinnegan and Tenseigan being continuously nourished by Six Paths power, pushing them toward further awakening.
"Six Paths-level power…"
Keizumi toyed with the Truth-Seeking Ball in his hand. Perhaps because he had entered Six Paths Mode, this sphere gave him the feeling that it could extend for miles.
Combined with its malleability, its indestructibility, and its immunity to ninjutsu, even with just this single Truth-Seeking Ball, Keizumi could probably defeat Hiashi with ease.
"For , the greatest benefit of Six Paths power… is probably the massive increase in my physical energy."
"Or rather, under the nourishnt of Six Paths power, my body is beginning to transform into sothing like Hashirama's Sage Body!"
"And with my already strong Yang Release, this process probably won't take long."
Keizumi dispersed the Truth-Seeking Ball and quietly felt his body. He could sense it continuously growing stronger. He could feel his Lava Release continuing to evolve.
More than that, he even had a vague feeling—if he wished, he could master all Kekkei Genkai in the shinobi world… even those that had never existed before.
"This is the effect of the creation power. Pure Six Paths power alone probably wouldn't allow mastery over all Kekkei Genkai… but the creation power can—it can be called the origin power of the entire shinobi world!"
As Keizumi opened his eyes, a thread of white light—no larger than the tip of a needle—flickered in his hand.
When that tiny white light touched the wall, a portion of the wall in his ho was instantly erased from existence.
This… was Dust Release!
