Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan

"Hinata!"

Shikamaru shouted, and the four of them quickly retreated with the unconscious Naruto.

……

Inside the tomb beneath the ruined town.

Hinata, who had returned to normal, asked in confusion, "Why did that guy leave? I wasn't really sure if I could withstand that final attack."

Sasuke shook his head slightly: "I don't know. Maybe there was something wrong with that guy's power at the time. He covered his eyes and ran away, and the golden giant blade shattered."

Sai said seriously, "Back then, we might have been able to catch up with him and take him down."

Shikamaru replied, "There are too many uncertainties. This situation is not suitable for taking a gamble. If Naruto and Sasuke lose their fighting ability at the same time, and the other side can recover quickly, we will all die here."

"Furthermore... I may have discovered the other party's weakness. In this situation, choosing to take a gamble would be the most foolish thing to do."

As Shikamaru spoke, he looked at Hinata and said, "When that guy fought you, he never used his ability to absorb chakra."

Sasuke, on the other side, paused for a moment, then said, "At the same level of power, the ability to absorb chakra might be ineffective, but Hinata still can't defeat him."

"wrong."

Shikamaru continued to look at Hinata: "That guy cares a lot about Hinata! He wants Hinata to be his wife. It's obvious he's been keeping an eye on her, but this is the first time he's met her. It's caring, not love!"

Shikamaru exhaled: "Now let me explain my analysis... First point: those eyes of the other person should be Hanabi's eyes."

Hinata froze as soon as she finished speaking, and her eyes immediately reddened.

Shikamaru glanced at her: "The chakra of the Otsutsuki clan, combined with the pure Byakugan, can give birth to the ultimate power of the Byakugan. As members of Team 7, you should understand what this means, right?"

Sasuke nodded. As one of the participants in the experiment at the time, he certainly understood the meaning of those words.

So... that bastard really did steal Hanabi's eyes!

He's still such a small child!

"I will! I will definitely get Hanabi's eyes back! I will!"

Even with her eyes tightly closed, tears still fell, and Hinata's hands were clenched tightly.

Shikamaru sighed and continued, "The Byakugan princess, that's a title, or more of a special name. Hanabi is also the daughter of the head of the Hyuga clan's main family, but that guy didn't call Hanabi a princess."

"Furthermore, in this tomb, the memories given to Hinata by the main family of the Moon Clan instructed her to destroy the giant Tenseigan and prevent the branch family from destroying the world. This also proves Hinata's special status."

Shikamaru looked at Naruto as he spoke: "Naruto's chakra was absorbed and fell down. I would have thought that such a huge amount of chakra would have caused a strong explosion, but it was absorbed by the golden light shield."

"Only a princess like Hinata, who is known as the Byakugan, can be immune to having her chakra absorbed, and only Hinata can destroy that giant Tenseigan."

"At the same time, only if Hinata's chakra cannot be absorbed can it cause that guy's discomfort..."

"The princess with the Byakugan has an overwhelming advantage in bloodline. That's why... we were able to escape unscathed in the battle just now. His discomfort in his eyes may be due to Hinata."

After he finished speaking, everyone fell silent.

Only Shikamaru could analyze so much in such a short time.

As members of the Nara clan, no one in Konoha has ever doubted their intelligence, let alone Shikamaru, the son of Konoha's brains.

After a long pause, Sasuke looked at Shikamaru and asked, "What should we do?"

Shikamaru laughed, then looked at Hinata: "Wait for Naruto to recover, then take turns treating him. With the amount of Nine-Tails' chakra and the special physique of the Uzumaki clan, he will be able to recover."

"Then I need Hinata to allocate some of your chakra to Sasuke and Naruto. This special ability will last for a while, allowing the three members of Team 7 to suppress that guy."

“I remember that Naruto’s Sage Mode enhances his senses. When the operation begins, Naruto and Hinata’s Byakugan will locate Hanabi’s position. Sai and I are tasked with rescuing Hanabi.”

"And he... will be handed over to your Class 7."

After he finished speaking, the group nodded.

"clear."

Hinata then placed her hands on Naruto's chest, and her chakra began to help him recover.

Meanwhile, Sasuke was still pondering, since Hinata's special nature was still just speculation.

But faced with that kind of power, he didn't seem to have a good solution.

Sasuke placed one hand on his eye; the cultivation of power beyond his current level was too slow…

Chapter 400: Speculation

In the shadows, Uchiha Un's shadow clone seemed to be deep in thought.

In the original story as I remember it, the final blow was Naruto's Rasengan against Toneri Otsutsuki's Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion.

One is an ordinary ball, not even a Rasengan shuriken, while the other is a powerful attack capable of splitting the moon in two.

However, after such an unequal clash of forces, the Rasengan was able to tear apart the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion and directly knock Otsutsuki Toneri away.

While anime characters, once dragged into a theatrical version by the main character, never seem to survive, reality doesn't always go as planned.

Hinata is special...

The fact that Toneri Otsutsuki proposed to Hinata seemed somewhat inexplicable in my memory, but now I think it was more because of Hinata's special status.

The title "Princess with the White Eyes" shouldn't just refer to the purity of her white eyes; otherwise, Hanabi would also be deserving of such a title.

Hamura Otsutsuki's soul converses with Hinata; the giant Tenseigan is unable to absorb Hinata's chakra...

Naruto struggled against the Tenseigan before the final battle, and even had his chakra depleted by Toneri Otsutsuki's abilities. However, after he and Hinata combined their chakra to destroy the giant Tenseigan, this phenomenon no longer occurred.

After that, he fought Otsutsuki Toneri to a standstill.

The last scene in my memory...

Otsutsuki Toneri had clearly stated that this was the last time the fetus would move, but after the Tenseibo was destroyed by Naruto's Rasengan, he said: "The Tenseigan... is gone."

Do they separate into the main family and the branch family?

It seems that the main family of the Otsutsuki Hamura lineage on the moon does not use the Caged Bird Seal as a method of restraining the branch family, but rather the so-called Byakugan Princess.

It's a natural counter based on chakra, but it's not a one-hit kill like a caged bird, and not all members of the main family possess this natural counter.

Having clarified some of the speculations, Uchiha Yun's shadow clone disappeared from the spot.

……

"Hinata..."

Naruto opened his eyes and saw Hinata. He turned his head and looked around: "Is everyone alright?"

Hinata shook her head slightly: "Everyone is fine. We need Naruto-kun's help with the next operation."

After struggling to sit up, Shikamaru looked over and asked, "How's the recovery going? How long will it take to regain your fighting strength?"

Naruto replied, "There shouldn't be any major problems. Once I'm fully awake, my chakra will recover much faster."

Naruto scratched his head and said, "Am I... a drag on?"

Sasuke glanced at him: "Their power is now clearly superior to ours. That ability to directly drain the opponent's chakra—if you hadn't taken the hit first, probably none of us except Hinata would have been able to avoid it."

Besides Hinata?

Naruto quickly grasped the key point, and then Shikamaru explained his series of analyses to him.

"Hahaha... I never imagined Hinata was actually a princess. This really sounds like a fairy tale..."

Shikamaru sighed helplessly: "Now we need to consider our next move. After you activate Sage Mode, you need to locate two things: Hanabi's location and the giant Tenseigan that Hinata mentioned."

"According to Hinata, it was that treasure of the Otsutsuki clan that gave Otsutsuki Toneri the power to destroy the main clan. If we don't destroy it, too many variables will arise."

Naruto's gaze turned serious, and he nodded, replying, "I understand."

Naruto then began to recover his chakra, while the others continued to stand guard and rest.

……

"Let's take action."

As Shikamaru finished speaking, Sai unfurled a scroll, and several giant ink-wash birds lifted them up and carried them toward the artificial sun.

Using the same trick again, they manipulated a puppet with the Shadow Stitching Technique to allow the group to enter once more.

"Boom."

The shadow clones dissipated, and Naruto activated Sage Mode.

"I'm entrusting Shikamaru and Hanabi to you in that castle!"

"Do not worry."

The giant birds dispersed, and Shikamaru and Sai left.

Meanwhile, the three members of Class 7 rode a giant bird to another floating island.

At the same time, Otsutsuki Toneri also sensed the intrusion of the group, and golden light shot out instantly.

Hinata formed hand seals, activated the Tenseigan Chakra Mode, and formed Truth-Seeking Balls in a semi-circle, blocking and annihilating all attacks.

The attack stopped when the group got close to the floating island.

At the same time, Toneri Otsutsuki, who had also activated the Tenseigan chakra mode, appeared in front of them.

"You escaped before, but you might not be so lucky this time."

As Otsutsuki Toneri spoke, he stretched out his hand and produced several orbs of light.

"Shh..."

The complete Susanoo condensed and took shape, its long sword sweeping across to block the ball of light.

This scene stunned Toneri Otsutsuki. Logically speaking, even if it was the power of Hagoromo's descendant, such a giant formed from chakra should have been absorbed.

"Naruto, deal with the unexpected factor Shikamaru mentioned first. I'll handle him."

As Sasuke spoke, he stood inside Susanoo's forehead and slashed down with both swords.

Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!

The Truth-Seeking Ball shone brightly, and a violent tornado engulfed Susanoo as it spun.

"boom!!"

A powerful tornado blasted it away, and Susanoo's armor began to crack.
