Naruto: Nara's skill set is incredibly sneaky.

Chapter 185 Reincarnation Eye

If Shikatoshi knew what Minato was thinking, he would definitely be speechless.

Is it possible that I didn't teach him much at all?

Is it simply because these two people have higher base stats?

Of course, even if Shikatoki said this, these ninja clans wouldn't believe him.

Therefore.

Seeing how leisurely the Nara deer were, these members of large families approached Minato Namikaze to voice their demands.

Minato thought it was actually a good idea.

"Whether it's okay or not, just say the word."

Lu Shi thought for a moment, "That's possible, but I'm really not good at teaching students, and my basic subjects are really mediocre!"

"It's alright, other teachers will teach the basic subjects. You'll mainly focus on practical combat and ninjutsu lessons." Minato made the decision immediately upon hearing that Shikatoki was willing.

"That's alright."

After finalizing the decision, Minato left satisfied.

After saying goodbye to Hizashi, Shikatoki left with Hinata and Neji.

It's almost noon now, and Naruto's probably finished playing by now, so we'll have to eat the Hyuga clan's bento next time.

Lu Shi can only take the children out to eat.

It's still the same familiar barbecue restaurant.

As soon as I entered, I saw someone I knew.

"Itachi! Shisui, Izumi, what a coincidence!" Shikatoki unceremoniously led the children to sit down.

Sasuke Uchiha's eyes lit up. He hadn't seen his brother in a long time. Every time he looked for Itachi Uchiha, he would say that he was too busy and that he would do it next time!

"elder brother!"

"Sasuke!" Itachi quickly caught Sasuke as he lunged at him. "Don't be so reckless."

"Oh, it's just that I haven't seen my brother in so long!"

Sasuke is completely different in front of Itachi than he is in public.

"So this is little Sasuke!" Izumi, who was next to Itachi, reached out and pinched Sasuke's cheek.

Sasuke struggled to get away from Izumi's hand. "Who are you?!"

"I am----"

Just as Uchiha Izumi was about to say that she was Itachi's teammate, Shikatoki beat her to it, saying, "This is your brother's girlfriend, your future sister-in-law."

"Shikatoki-sama!"

"teacher!"

Uchiha Izumi's cheeks were flushed, and although Uchiha Itachi maintained his composure on the surface, his ears were also slightly red.

Lu Shi put his arm around Shisui's shoulder. "Speaking of which, Shisui, what about you? When are you going to bring one back?"

"Lord Shikatoki! I'm not in a hurry."

"Alright!"

After a while, Sasuke finally realized what was happening and immediately stood in front of Itachi Uchiha, saying, "Are you here to take my brother away from me?"

'

This remark immediately made Lu Shi and the others laugh.

The barbecue restaurant served the food quickly, and the children started grilling the meat themselves. Shikatoshi pulled Hyuga Neji over.

"Come here, Itachi, let me introduce you. This is Hyuga Neji, my new disciple, your junior brother."

Hyuga Neji quickly bowed, "Greetings, Senior Brother!"

Uchiha Itachi smiled gently at the somewhat reserved Neji. "Hello! My name is Uchiha Itachi. Don't be so careful. You're under Shikatoki-sensei's tutelage, so relax and everything will be fine."

"clear!"

After a simple meal, Lu Shi took the children back to their familiar surroundings.

The days passed peacefully until Orochimaru and Hiruko came knocking on their door.

"Shikatoki-kun, it's been a long time," Orochimaru greeted with a smile.

Shikatoshi thought for a moment. Since learning Dust Release, he hadn't been to Orochimaru's lab in a long time. "That's true. But what do you want with me?"

There's something I'm not sure if I should say.

"Since you don't know, then don't tell me."

Lu Shi immediately sensed that it was going to be a troublesome matter.

Orochimaru smiled, as was typical of Shikatoki, but he still spoke up: "Shikatoki-kun, Hiruko and I would like to ask you for a favor."

"Even if I don't tell you to say it, you will still say it, so I'll listen anyway."

"Hiruko and I have been studying the Byakugan in depth lately and have discovered something very interesting. I wonder if Shikatoki-kun would like to know?" Orochimaru licked his lips, trying to pique Shikatoki's interest.

Orochimaru's research institute is now highly sought after.

Previously, only some small ninja clans conducted research on it.

Since the Senju and Uchiha clans went there and achieved remarkable results.

Even the Hyuga clan, which is traditionally conservative and values ​​the Byakugan, couldn't resist sending a member to participate in the experiment.

Orochimaru originally wasn't very interested in the Byakugan.

In Orochimaru's view, the Sharingan, with its ability to evolve and various magical eye techniques, is the eye he needs to study.

Therefore, the study of the white eye was only symbolic.

The results of this study were remarkable.

Orochimaru and Hiruko discovered energy fluctuations within the Byakugan, but the Hyuga clan ninja who came to cooperate with the experiment had very weak energy within them, leading Orochimaru to make a bold conjecture.

If the energy is strong, can the Byakugan also evolve?

Shika chuckled at Orochimaru's cryptic talk, "I don't want to know. It's just that the Byakugan can evolve!"

"Um?"

Orochimaru was not surprised at all, and even somewhat expectant.

"As expected, Shikatoshi-kun knew. Hiruko and I hoped that you could answer our questions."

After thinking for a moment, Shika said casually, "The Byakugan evolves into the Tenseigan, but the conditions for evolution are very demanding."

A glint of excitement flashed in Orochimaru's eyes.

"As expected! What level of eye is that Tenseigan?"

"They'll probably sit at the same table as the Rinnegan, but given the current state of the Hyuga clan, it's impossible for them to evolve the Tenseigan."

What Lu Shi said was not wrong.

To evolve the Tenseigan, one needs the bloodline of the Otsutsuki clan and sufficient purity of the Byakugan.

Putting aside the Otsutsuki bloodline, Hinata currently possesses the purest Byakugan in the entire Hyuga clan.

"How interesting! I was wondering why the Byakugan was on par with the Sharingan during the Warring States period. Now I understand."

"Uh—you're probably overthinking it."

Shikatoshi didn't know either, but the Hyuga clan probably didn't have the Tenseigan at that time.

"I'll just tell you straight, to get the Tenseigan you need—"

"No need to say anything, Shikatoshi-kun, we'll research it ourselves." Orochimaru's eyes were filled with fervor. "If you tell us, it loses the charm of scientific research. Only finding it ourselves is truly exhilarating!"

Hiruko nodded in agreement. "Orochimaru is right. We need to go back and study this."

Looking at the two enthusiastic researchers, Lu Shi scratched his head.

I thought the matter was over.

The result was less than a week ago.

Hiashi Hyuga delivered a truckload of gifts to Shikatoki's home in the Senju clan.

Tsunade and the others were puzzled. "Clan Chief Hiashi, even if Shikatoki helped Neji, was this really necessary?"

Hiashi Hyuga's expression was serious. "No, it has nothing to do with Neji."

"Hmm, what's going on?" Shikatoki walked in from the doorway. He had been summoned back by Tsunade. "Clan Chief Hiashi, you're exaggerating a bit. Even if the Hyuga clan is powerful, there's no need for this."

Hiashi Hyuga remained silent for a moment before slowly saying, "Shikatoshi-kun, I received a research report on the Byakugan from Orochimaru."

Ok!

At this point, Lu Shi understood.

No wonder Hiashi Hyuga sent so many things!

So that's where he was waiting!

"The Tenseigan?"

"Yes!" Hiashi Hyuga nodded. "Ever since I learned that the Byakugan could evolve, I went back and searched through all the Hyuga clan's records. Finally, I discovered something unusual about our ancestor, Hyuga Tennin."

"According to records, Hyuga Tenjin's Byakugan underwent a strange change at the time, allowing him to see farther than other Byakugan users! Therefore—"

Deer is very confident; what good is seeing far ahead?

"Take these things back. Forgive my bluntness, but given the current state of the Hyuga clan, no one has a chance to evolve the Tenseigan."

Hiashi Hyuga clenched his fists tightly. Orochimaru had naturally told him this, but he was unwilling to accept it.

As the Uchiha clan grows stronger, the Byakugan, which also possesses ocular jutsu, is now showing new possibilities, and Hiashi Hyuga is unwilling to give up.

"Please tell me, Shikatoshi-kun, how exactly does the Byakugan evolve!"

Lu Shi sighed, "The most basic point is purity."

"Purity?" Hiashi Hyuga was somewhat confused.

"You don't need to know the specifics. I can only tell you that Hinata's Byakugan has a very high purity, but Hinata is still too young and is far from having the Tenseigan."

Shika's words did not discourage Hiashi Hyuga; on the contrary, they made Hiashi Hyuga's eyes light up.

There's a chance! That means there's hope!

Not to mention that this person is his daughter.

"I understand, I'll focus on training Hinata!"

Hearing Hiashi Hyuga's determination, Shikatoki quickly said, "Give me a break, let Hinata eat her fill first!"
