Sky Curtain: Short Video Commentary on Konoha Villagers

The images on the screen gradually faded away, the previous content faded, the light screen flickered slightly, and new text slowly appeared.

If the Uchiha and Hyuga clans were to marry, would their children possess half Sharingan and half Byakugan, or would the Sharingan and Byakugan fuse together?

Under the sky, the previously noisy ninja crowd instantly fell silent.

To be honest, nobody really thought about this question.

The Uchiha and Hyuga clans are the two great dojutsu bloodline clans of Konoha, one with the Sharingan and the other with the Byakugan, each with their own lineage spanning over a thousand years. However, these two clans have never really connected through marriage.

It's not that no one has mentioned it, but both sides think their perspective is superior, and neither is willing to back down.

Now that Tianmu has brought this issue to the forefront, everyone is interested.

"That's an interesting question... Half Sharingan and half Byakugan, what would it look like?"

"He was born with heterochromia, one eye red and one eye white. It's actually quite pretty."

On the training field, Naruto scratched his head and turned to look at Kakashi.

"Kakashi-sensei, wouldn't the Sharingan and Byakugan combined be incredibly powerful?"

Kakashi was silent for two seconds, then shook his head.

"...The functions overlap."

"what?"

"Both the Sharingan and the Byakugan have the ability to see clearly. Although they have different focuses, combining them may not provide the same level of enhancement as you might imagine."

Regarding this question, Tianyi's answer is that it's most likely half Sharingan and half Byakugan.

However, as everyone knows, the Sharingan is a stripped-down version of the Byakugan.

[So, it's highly likely that the Byakugan is a dominant gene, while the Sharingan is a recessive gene.]

If the Hyuga and Uchiha clans were to marry, their child would definitely have Byakugan.

However, if he gets emotionally agitated, he will activate his Sharingan.

In short: He was born with the Byakugan, and later awakened the Sharingan, able to switch between them at will. There's also a possibility that the two will fuse in the future.

Under the sky, a collective gasp of astonishment rang out.

[Fourth Raikage A: ...This setup, seriously?]

[Mei Terumi: A natural Byakugan, an acquired Sharingan, and the ability to switch between them at will—isn't that cheating?]

The expressions on the faces of the other people also became quite interesting.

"Wait... someone was born with Byakugan, and can awaken Sharingan later in life?"

"What kind of monster configuration is this?"

"Imagine you're fighting someone who uses the Byakugan, and you're treating them the way you would a Hyuga, and then suddenly they activate the Sharingan?"

"If we're completely unprepared... we'll most likely get ambushed and killed, right?"

Thinking about that scene, everyone suddenly felt a chill run down their spines.

You thought your opponent was the Hyuga, but it turns out they were a combination of the Hyuga and the Uchiha.

You thought he only knew soft fist techniques, but it turns out he also knows illusion techniques.

[But overall, it's still primarily based on the Byakugan. It's like the child is born with at least Jonin-level strength.]

As for taking it to the next level, that depends on the magnitude of any future stimulus.

[If one had Hyuga Neji's experiences, and with a bit more luck, could revert to their ancestral form, becoming a minor Sage of Six Paths wouldn't be impossible.]

Under the sky, everyone was stunned.

Little...Sage of Six Paths?

After a brief silence, the ninja world erupted in chaos.

Konoha Village, the territory of the Hyuga clan.

Hiashi Hyuga suddenly cried out in surprise, disregarding all pretense of dignity.

"The Sage of Six Paths?!"

He stared intently at the words on the sky, his breathing becoming rapid.

The descendants of the Hyuga and Uchiha clans...may have reached the level of the Sage of Six Paths?

He subconsciously looked toward the Hyuga branch family, his mind churning with countless thoughts.

In the Uchiha clan territory,

The Uchiha clan members were equally shocked.

"Really?! Our descendants, along with the Hyuga clan's, could become the Sage of Six Paths?!"

"Doesn't this mean that a marriage alliance between us and the Hyuga clan is the best solution?"

Several young Uchiha clan members exchanged glances, a subtle expression appearing on their faces.

They usually looked down on the Hyuga clan, thinking that those people just stayed in their clan's territory practicing Tai Bagua with their Byakugan eyes, and had no ambition whatsoever.

But looking at it now...

It seems... it's actually not bad?

The sky continued to appear at this moment.

Speaking of Neji, there's a topic we can't leave out.

If Neji hadn't died, could he have reached Kage level?

[Kage-level, simply put, means being a level above an ordinary Jonin, possessing the intimidating power to stand alone.]

Under the sky, the atmosphere suddenly changed.

Neji Hyuga's pupils reflected the words on the sky, and he fell silent.

His hands hung at his sides, his fingers slightly clenched.

It seems my future is going to end very early.

He closed his eyes, trying to suppress his surging emotions.

Discussions were also taking place throughout the ninja world.

"Didn't the previous explanation mention the Hyuga clan's weaknesses?"

"Yeah, it has those obvious weaknesses. At most, it'll be a Jonin, right?"

"Kage-level? Has the Hyuga clan ever produced a Kage-level individual?"

"...You know what, there actually is one, but he was a figure from the Warring States period, I think his name was something like Hyuga Tennin."

"Wow, there really is one?!"

[While Neji's weaknesses were mentioned earlier, the Caged Bird Seal did indeed limit part of his Byakugan's field of vision and also locked out the possibility of bloodline evolution.]

[Relying solely on the Hyuga clan's Eight Trigrams and Byakugan is indeed insufficient to reach Kage level.]

But at this point, it all comes down to Neji's talent.

[Without any instruction, he independently mastered the family's secret techniques of "Reversing Heaven" and "Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms."]

This level of combat talent and comprehension is unparalleled among the entire Konoha 11.

Hidden Rock Village.

Onoki smacked his lips and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"He figured out the family's secret technique on his own without anyone teaching him?"

"Konoha really has a lot of talented people."

Heitu curled his lip in disapproval.

"Grandpa, you've said it so many times: Konoha has plenty of talented people..."

"What can I do? Facts are facts."

Onoki glanced at her, then looked up at the sky.

"It's a pity, though. Being a caged bird is too harmful. No matter how talented you are, what good is it? In the end, your life or death is still in someone else's hands."

Hidden Cloud Village.

The Fourth Raikage leaned back in his chair, his fingers rhythmically tapping the table.

"I've always thought the Hyuga clan's branch family system is the stupidest thing in the ninja world."

"They lock their own geniuses in cages, while letting the mediocre members of the main family ride roughshod over them."

"The fact that this family has been able to continue to this day can only mean that the Byakugan bloodline is indeed tough enough."

Mabui stood to the side, adjusting her glasses.

"Lord Raikage, are you lamenting the loss of someone else's genius?"

"What I regret is the waste of such talent!"

Raikage slammed his fist on the table, feeling extremely stifled.

"A genius who can self-taught the family's secret techniques, a genius who has been oppressed!"

"But even if we knew, with that damn caged bird around, we still can't poach him!"

...

Guys, I'm all fired up. My wedding room is all set up, but my family keeps pressuring me to find a girlfriend.

My dad wants me to get married right away, while my mom wants me to date a few more women.

It's tough; I haven't even held a woman's hand in the past twenty years.
