Konoha: This Uchiha is going a bit too far.

Chapter 242 Reincarnation Eye, Haori: What the hell?

Within the Pure Land, Ōtsutsuki Hamura and Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo sat together, enjoying tea.

Although Hagoromo was somewhat annoyed by his younger brother Hamura, now that everyone had awakened and the situation was somewhat unpredictable, they would not remain asleep any longer.

However, they also have some frustrating things now, especially about everything that has happened within this Pure Land.

"Big brother, is this also part of your plan?"

After taking a sip of tea, Hamura suddenly spoke.

"But thinking about it first, such a cruel plan should at least leave some trace of light for everyone, otherwise everything would be too cold."

However, if people keep leaving the Pure Land, won't that cause trouble for the human world? After all, it disrupts the natural balance.

"."

Upon hearing this, Yu Yi, who was drinking tea, stiffened and then silently put down her teacup.

How did this matter get involved with him again? Why are you asking him this kind of question again?

To be honest, Yu Yi felt really frustrated. He didn't know when it started, but it seemed like every problem could be related to him.

Unfortunately, there are many things he still can't explain, and this is no exception.

How can we explain that the existence of the Impure World Reincarnation technique truly violates the laws of nature, and the same applies to Reincarnation of the Living?

But the world didn't stop it!

Moreover, the Otsutsuki themselves are beings that defy the laws of nature, or rather, the actions of the Otsutsuki are, in some sense, natural actions.

In fact, Yu Yi had also thought about a question: if life proliferates excessively, will it consume too much of the universe?

Given this, shouldn't we need a street cleaner?

Of course, this is just his thought and speculation, but he won't dwell on it whether it is true or not.

Even without considering these issues, don't they themselves possess the ability to resurrect the dead, such as the Samsara technique?

Therefore, it is indeed meaningless to dwell on some issues, and he also thought about something else.

He has inexplicably become cold-blooded and ruthless, so isn't it a kind of love for the world that he retains the Impure World Reincarnation and the Reincarnation of the Living?

However, he really didn't want to admit it, because he hadn't done anything at all!

"This is a natural selection, and it has nothing to do with me."

After a long silence, he finally managed to utter this sentence.

"yes?"

Hamura blinked, then smiled and said.

"Since elder brother says so, then so be it."

"."

The feather robe is a bit difficult to hold up. What do you mean by "I say so"?

If I say no, would you really agree?

Yu Yi really didn't want to say anything. Some things just get worse the more you try to explain them, and there's simply no way to explain them clearly.

"But speaking of which, these young people are really growing up very fast."

Hamura had no idea what his older brother was thinking. He sighed and then spoke softly.

"Haori has grown up to this point, and the previous generation of your two sons, who were resurrected, are also beginning to show new changes."

In particular, Madara Uchiha, the reincarnation of Indra, seems to have found a new path, and natural energy is indeed a good choice.

While Ashura's reincarnation, Hashirama Senju, did not possess all of your bloodline and power, he found his own path, and he inherently possessed natural energy.

Currently, the haori is still modifying the new generation of Indra and Ashura, and one can imagine that their future should be bright, however…

At this point, Hamura paused for a moment, then revealed a mischievous smile.

"It seems he has suppressed the will of both Indra and Asura. You're not angry about that, are you?"

"."

Hearing his younger brother's question, Yu Yi pursed his lips. Even though he felt a little uncomfortable about this, what could he do?

Why don't you come out and talk to Yuzhi about it, and tell her not to do such a thing?

Obviously, Yui wouldn't do such a thing. Besides, he could understand Yui's actions, since not everyone wants to see traces of other people on their own child or their friend's child.

Besides, given Yu Zhi's current strength, even if I were to speak up for him, would it really make a difference?

However, he really didn't want to elaborate on these points, and after much deliberation, he could only give a standard answer.

"Let the young people handle their own affairs."

Do we believe in the wisdom of future generations?

Upon hearing this, Hamura nodded in agreement.

"No wonder your plan was so successful. It turns out you always maintained this mindset. I've learned a lot."

"."

Yuzhi glanced at his younger brother, but ultimately remained silent. He increasingly felt that he and his brother seemed to have some communication problems.

However, just as they were about to continue talking, their expressions suddenly changed slightly at the same time.

Hamura quickly raised his head, and his white eyes suddenly turned into a bright blue light.

The soaring chakra rippled throughout the entire Pure Land, even awakening many sleeping souls!

However, this chakra came and went quickly. Before these sleeping souls could figure out what was going on, they fell into slumber once again because of the rules of the Pure Land.

"Has it them arrived?"

Seeing that her younger brother had stopped, Yu Yi pondered for a moment before asking in a low voice.

"This time, things seem a little different from before."

"Hmm." Hamura nodded. "There are two people who came this time. Perhaps one of them is a guardian."

"As expected, it's finally here."

Yu Yi shook her head slightly. Although she had expected it, there was also a guy who came here a few years ago and suffered a crushing defeat.

However, the arrival of these Otsutsuki always caused Hagoromo trouble and worry.

"Brother, don't overthink it. After all, you've been planning this for so many years, it should have a good outcome."

Although Hamura was also having some headaches, he remained relatively optimistic.

"Trust in the wisdom of future generations and see what they can do. Isn't that what you've always been insisting on?"

Besides, they won last time, and that kid Yuzhi didn't even show his strength that time.

And for some reason, I have a feeling that these two are the ones who are going to have bad luck.

"."

Yu Yi's lips twitched, but in the end he didn't say anything more. Instead, he pondered for a moment before speaking.

"Your optimism is commendable, but you should know that the situation is getting increasingly complicated."

Isshiki Otsutsuki is not dead yet, and now two more people have come with him. Besides, Urashiki Otsutsuki is probably not dead either.

If this continues, the terrible things will only get worse.

Hagoromo's words made Hamura nod slightly. Although a thousand years is not a long time, there has been no trouble. But now, so many Otsutsuki have come at once.

If this situation continues, no one can say for sure what will happen, but the danger is very real.

"Big brother, that kid Yuzhi is constantly inheriting your mantle and nurturing the next generation, so shouldn't you..."

After a long while, Hamura suddenly spoke up and asked a question, and his meaning was simple and clear.

"I will consider this matter, although I would prefer that the two children get to this point through their own efforts rather than relying on other forces."

After thinking for a while, Yu Yi gave his answer.

"Of course, with Yuri around, these two children could probably do it, but I have another idea before that."

"What?"

Hamura looked at his older brother with curiosity, and at that moment, Hagoromo stood up, took a deep breath and spoke.

"I think I should inform the child; after all, such a big thing needs to be prepared for him."

"Is that so?"

Hamura thought for a moment, then smiled and nodded.

"Indeed, he is the future of this world, and preparing him is more important than anything else."

Having said that, Hamura said no more. He trusted his older brother's judgment, after all, his brother's series of plans had been so successful!

However, what he didn't know was that his older brother was also thinking about something else at that moment.

"We need to have a serious talk with that brat, Yuzhi. We can't let the rumors continue!"

-

"Hey, Sasuke, how are you doing now?"

Inside a room at the Hamura Shrine, Naruto sat panting on the edge of the bed, looking at Sasuke whose face was still wrapped in bandages. He couldn't help but ask a question out of curiosity.

A month has passed in the blink of an eye, and Naruto has been trained terribly during this time.

However, he was still quite concerned about Sasuke, and of course, he was also somewhat envious, since Sasuke had been lying in bed the whole time.

"That's good. If nothing unexpected happens, we should be able to take action soon."

Sasuke pursed his lips before speaking, though his words carried a hint of envy.

"I heard you guys have a lot of training programs. Damn it, I can only lie here."

"Tch, once you get here yourself, you probably won't be so envious anymore."

Naruto almost rolled his eyes. Sasuke's eyes couldn't see what was happening outside for the time being, otherwise he felt that Sasuke would never be envious.

Naruto and Neji's training during this period was exceptionally tough, though outsiders would probably be envious, since they were being trained by Hagoromo, Hikaru, and Madara together.

But these three are all incredibly strict!

For Naruto and Neji, the training from "Hotaru-neechan" was probably relatively more relaxed, since she only taught them ninjutsu and the like.

However, compared to Haori and Madara, this "Matsu" is extremely strict about the timing and speed of releasing her escaping techniques, as well as the techniques she chooses when dealing with enemies.

Because of her fighting style, Neji might not say much, but she would teach him how to dodge and how to choose when to attack based on the timing of his dodges.

But Naruto is in a much worse situation.

"I'm realizing for the first time that being able to use ninjutsu isn't necessarily a good thing?"

Naruto's ninjutsu talent is quite good. At least without a painful childhood and the influence of the Nine-Tails, he showed extraordinary talent under Minato's guidance.

Even though he personally preferred to use the Rasengan combined with the Flying Thunder God Technique to fight, he tragically discovered that his moves were completely useless against "Sister Ying".

The opponent can completely block his offensive options with ninjutsu, and by using them appropriately and in combination, they can force him into a corner!

More importantly, Naruto knew that this "Hotaru-neechan" wasn't serious at all, which frustrated him but also motivated him.

Madara, on the other hand, hasn't changed at all in ten years. As a teacher of taijutsu, Madara is very good at making Naruto understand the importance of taijutsu through physical sensation.

In short, it's all about fighting!

Under this kind of "enhanced physical sensation" communication, Naruto and Neji were both beaten so badly they were completely disoriented. This was even though Madara was focused on learning Sage Mode while giving them this instruction.

Naruto didn't even dare to think about what would happen to them if Madara Uchiha focused on teaching them.

As for the haori, Naruto sometimes wakes up in fright from dreaming about it in the middle of the night.

"The Naruto guy is terrifying."

The training for them was much simpler: to maximize the power of Yang Release within them and to have them use Yang Release for training.

This kind of thing seems simple, but once you actually do it, the experience is much more painful than Madara Uchiha's "nothing but fighting".

What Naruto didn't know was that the haori was, to some extent, accelerating their process of training themselves using Yang Release.

The First Hokage, Hashirama, spent decades training and accumulating experience. Now that Naruto no longer has a Tailed Beast, he naturally has to follow this path.

However, the gap between him and Hashirama had widened considerably, so Hagoromo could only use some tricks to make Naruto and even Neji unleash their Yang Release power.

Then let them grasp these powers more quickly, and hone and cultivate themselves.

It has to be said that the training effect is really good. Yang Release greatly improves the body, but because of the time constraints, Naruto and the others will only experience greater pain!

For example, they seemed to be able to clearly feel their bodies being torn apart by these forces, but they couldn't find any trace of it.

However, it's normal that they can't be found, because while the force is tearing their bodies apart and strengthening them, it is also repairing these injuries.

Furthermore, Yuzhi had carefully examined them and determined that this would not cause any long-term effects on their bodies, nor was it a way of squeezing out their potential.

Otherwise, Yuzhi wouldn't have let them continue.

The nearly month-long training brought them tremendous improvements, but the suffering was also immense.

"That's still better than lying here and watching you all get stronger."

Sasuke pursed his lips before speaking, but his words made Naruto somewhat irritated.

"You damn bastard, I still want to lie here! You have no idea what we've been through!"

"Isn't that because you're too weak to withstand it?"

Sasuke wasn't one to back down either, and he immediately retorted.

"I've heard that your greatest suffering comes from the physical reactions caused by practicing Yang Release."

My father said that's how the First Hokage trained. If he could do it, why can't you?

"Damn it, don't talk nonsense, why don't you try it yourself!"

Naruto couldn't hold back any longer and immediately roared, but Sasuke just laughed without caring at all.

"Please, I'm not the same as you and Neji. According to Father, our paths are different."

The power of Yang Release focuses on the physical body, while the power of Yin Release focuses on mental strength. Is that good?

Even if I learn the power of Yang Release in the future, I will most likely only use the basic training methods.

Of course, even if I followed your methods, I wouldn't be as pathetic as you are; at least my tolerance level is better than yours!

"A guy who only talks big."

Naruto was too lazy to talk to Sasuke about these things. Indeed, their paths were different, and there was really no comparison between them.

Naruto had asked his father before; he was genuinely curious about why the Sharingan was so powerful, and Minato had explained the relevant information to him.

He also learned some secrets about the Sharingan's power, such as the extreme mental anguish that is something that ordinary people cannot endure or face.

Of course, he also learned something else.

That means Sasuke probably didn't need to endure such pain, because Sasuke's father likely did it for him in some other way.

Thinking about this, Naruto didn't want to continue talking about these messy things with Sasuke.

If he hadn't known that Sasuke's training from a young age was always very "nervous," especially given the Hokage's particularly strong "mischievous sense of humor," he probably would have been truly jealous of Sasuke.

"Get some rest, you'll be in for it later."

"Pshaw, what difficult things haven't I experienced?"

Sasuke spoke with some pride, but for some reason, his smile quickly faded. It was as if a terrifying memory was creeping over him, making him shiver involuntarily.

For a moment, the two fell silent. After what seemed like an eternity, Sasuke finally asked in a low voice.

"By the way, where's Neji? Why hasn't he come back? Did Father keep him here because of his poor performance?"

"Your father did keep him here, but I don't know exactly what he's going to do with him."

Naruto shook his head. He really didn't know about this. All he knew was that after the two of them were "disciplined" for a while, Neji was taken away.

He had no idea what exactly he was going to do, because Neji's training was no worse than his.

"Do you think it's possible that he made your dad angry?"

After thinking for a moment, Naruto suddenly asked cautiously.

"Don't talk nonsense. Father isn't a petty person."

Sasuke immediately retorted, but he couldn't finish his sentence.

Everyone in Konoha would say that Yuri was an excellent police chief and a great Hokage.

However, a very small number of people have also said that while haori is good in every way, it has one drawback: it can be a bit petty at times.

Those who offend him rarely have a good ending.

Of course, many people think this is no big deal. After all, we're not saints. Who would give a friendly look to someone who provokes them?

Naruto and Sasuke both knew that Haori's pettiness was no joke.

For a moment, both of them fell silent.

"Teacher, what are we doing here?"

In a room deep within the Hamura Shrine, Neji cautiously looked at Haori and Hikaru before him and asked somewhat nervously.

After training ended, he was left behind by Yuzhi and brought to this place. How could he not be nervous?

Besides knowing from the moment he became a disciple of the Hagoromo school that his teacher was sometimes petty and had a wicked sense of humor, he now also had the kind of worry that only a student would have.

Imagine a student being called to their teacher's office alone after class.

Even if he should be praised, he still can't help but wonder if he has made a mistake again and if his parents will be called in this time.

In this state of anxiety, Neji acted with extreme caution, genuinely worried that he might have encountered some serious problem again.

Especially since Haori and Hikaru were both looking him up and down, it made him even more uneasy.

Are you sure you want to do this?

Just as Neji was feeling most uneasy, wondering if he should do a "dogeza" (a deep bowing gesture) to express his repentance, Hikaru suddenly spoke up from the side.

"While I admit that Neji would undergo a transformation if we succeeded, you should know that this is not something we are good at."

We don't even know what the cost of failure will be, and didn't you say that even those Otsutsuki on the moon couldn't withstand it? Can Neji really handle it?

"Why?"

Neji blinked upon hearing this. What was going on? This seemed a little different from what he had expected.

"It's certainly not something we're good at, and we don't know what the consequences of failure would be, but I can't agree with what comes next."

Yuzhi stroked his chin, thought for a moment, and then spoke.

"The reason why the Otsutsuki on the moon cannot withstand it is because their bodies have not yet reached the point of accepting these powers, which is why they suffer a backlash."

After being trained by Guy and nurtured by the power of Yang Release, Neji's situation was completely different from that of the Otsutsuki on the moon.

Especially now that he has withstood the tempering of Yang Release chakra, even though he is still somewhat inferior to Naruto, I think his current physical condition should be able to withstand it.

Yuri spoke with considerable confidence; Neji's situation was indeed much better than expected, and his growth far surpassed that of the original story.

Strictly speaking, Neji in the original work was the most unlucky of the twelve Konoha 12, since he was the only one who died.

But Neji's situation is quite different now. He has trained with the Yang Release power of the Otsutsuki clan on the moon, which has improved his physical abilities.

With the occasional guidance from Yuzhi, he made breakthroughs in all aspects of his growth, but most importantly, it was Kai.

Kai is a hardworking genius, that's true, but to withstand that kind of hard work and still keep his body healthy is no easy feat.

Besides Akai's own extraordinary physical talent, his training methods and subsequent recuperation were also extremely important.

Otherwise, even someone like Xiao Li, who is far inferior to A Kai in every aspect and is a truly ordinary person, would not have been able to achieve such success!

Under Guy's careful tutelage, Neji's growth is also clearly visible.

It's hard to say why Neji in the original work seemed to be neither good enough for high-level jobs nor good enough for low-level ones. Even if Guy favored Rock Lee, he couldn't possibly ignore someone like Neji who was both hardworking and talented.

It's highly likely that Neji, being a member of the Hyuga clan, focused his training more on the Byakugan and Gentle Fist, and therefore didn't intend to learn much from Guy.

But Neji is different now. Having become a disciple of the Hagoromo Gakuen, he naturally can't just focus on the Byakugan and Gentle Fist.

What he learns is entirely determined by Hagoromo, and even members of the Hyuga clan dare not utter a single word of dissent.

After Hagoromo handed Neji over to Guy, Guy will have more room to maneuver, and Neji will naturally have more to learn.

This can be considered a huge change for Neji compared to the original work.

"Let's ask him, after all, this is kind of an experiment."

Hearing Yuzhi's words, she couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. After thinking for a moment, she gave her own answer.

"no problem."

Yuri nodded, then looked at Neji, who had a question mark on his face.

"Neji, we have an option for you."

"Teacher, I'm willing."

Before Haori could even finish asking, Neji agreed without hesitation, though he was still a little confused about what was going on.

However, out of absolute trust in Haori, and because Haori already had her own ideas, Neji felt that it was better to agree directly than to overthink it.

After all, apart from being overly strict and having a somewhat perverse sense of humor, his teacher was good in every way.

"Oh, you've made a decision so quickly?"

Yuzhi was somewhat speechless, and he couldn't help but ask with amusement.

"Aren't you going to ask what happened?"

"I will support the teacher's decision no matter what."

Neji said seriously, seemingly having already prepared himself mentally.

"Besides, I believe my teacher wouldn't harm me."

"While I'm happy that you said that, I think you should still know what you're supposed to be doing."

Yuri smiled and raised an eyebrow at Hikari. Before Hikari could roll her eyes at her, Yuri immediately turned to look at Neji.

"Neji, you should know the origins of the Hyuga clan, right?"

"Yes, teacher."

Neji nodded. The ancestor of the Hyuga clan was the younger brother of the Sage of Six Paths, and like the Uchiha and Senju clans, they were descendants of the Sage.

To be honest, this incident made Neji feel proud.

Pride naturally comes from this status, but frustration stems from the mismatch between one's abilities and one's actual strength.

Although this outcome was due to a break in the lineage, his teacher led a group directly to the moon and quelled the "rebellion" there.

"Actually, both the Otsutsuki on the moon and you Hyuga have an even more powerful force that you have never mastered."

Just as Neji was pondering, Haori suddenly spoke up.

"This power is probably what the Rinnegan is capable of dealing with."

"The Rinnegan?"

Neji's expression changed instantly upon hearing these words, because he had never considered such things before.

How could he not be taken aback when he suddenly heard what Yuzhi said?

In his moment of astonishment, his heart began to race. Was his teacher planning to let him master this power?

"That's right, the Rinnegan."

Yuzhi nodded, and his expression became much more serious.

"However, the requirements for mastering this power are too demanding, so even now, not many people have truly mastered it."

However, this power was not abandoned; the Otsutsuki on the moon replicated it through other means.

However, this power no longer exists within an individual's body, but has been placed outside.

After I found this power, I began to think about whether I could put this power back into a person's body.

So Neji, I have always had high expectations for you, constantly making you train in the power of Yang Release and hone your body, all in preparation for this.

Reassigning these powers back into the body is no easy task; on the contrary, it is very dangerous. Almost all the Otsutsuki on the moon died because of this power.

The choice is now yours. I personally feel that you are ready, but even though what you say is correct, I still need to ask for your opinion.

Are you really willing to take this risk? Are you really willing to try it?

Yuzhi spoke calmly, but it stirred up a storm in Neji's heart, leaving him momentarily speechless.

Neji lowered his head and seemed somewhat silent, but this silence did not last long. Soon he raised his head again and looked at Haori seriously.

"Teacher, I'm willing. No matter what, I'm willing to give it a try!"

Are you sure?

Yuri tilted her head and asked curiously, while Neji replied with unwavering certainty.

"Yes, teacher, I've made up my mind."

Seeing Neji's current state, Yuzhi nodded slightly. His firmness already demonstrated his determination, and Yuzhi did not ask any further questions.

He didn't know if it would be completely successful, but he knew he could make sure the kid was alright, since he was also the controller of the Tenseigan.

"Alright, get ready, we'll begin in a bit."

Yuzhi waved his hand, then seemed to have thought of something before continuing.

"Also, remember this: the name of these eyes is..."

"Ten-Sengan".

-

As dawn approached, Haori nestled in Hikari's arms and slowly drifted off to sleep.

After properly dealing with Neji's problem, Haori and Hikaru went crazy all night before finally getting some rest.

Although neither of them was tired, they were used to a regular lifestyle, so how could they not give themselves a proper rest?

As for Neji's situation, everything is relatively stable.

"As expected, the Otsutsuki on the moon couldn't withstand it, mainly because their bodies couldn't take it, or rather, the degeneration of their bloodline made them unable to use it."

Hagoromo had already considered the issue of the Tenseigan, which is why his training of Neji was more targeted.

Whether Neji's bloodline has evolved further is hard to say, but with the power of the Tenseigan controlled by Haori and his strong body able to support this power.

"However, Neji's changes will need to be done in small, frequent steps."

He closed his eyes, holding the light curled up in his arms, and slowly drifted into a dream.

Haori wasn't sure how long it would take Neji to complete his transformation, or rather, to reach the point where he was ready for his first Tenseigan.

But a good start is more important than anything else!

"Furthermore, I need to carefully observe Neji's bloodline progression to see if there are any changes."

With a satisfied heart, Yuzhi slowly drifted off to sleep.

But soon, he was shocked to find that he hadn't actually fallen asleep!

His body had entered a state of dormancy, but his consciousness was incredibly active, which was something that shouldn't be happening to him at all.

"What's going on?"

Yuzhi frowned. He really didn't like this situation, especially since he sensed a dark shadow vaguely appearing in front of him.

Yuzhi looked somewhat serious, but he remained calm, as he had encountered similar situations before.

"Oh no, could there be a breach in Kaguya's seal? Did she see me messing around on the moon?"

Yuzhi's eyebrows twitched. It seemed rather inappropriate to be "dancing on Kaguya's grave" when she was someone who was completely bewildered by seduction techniques.

However, when he saw everything clearly, he suddenly froze, and the next moment he almost couldn't hold back and shouted.

"Is this a ghost?"
