The Devil of Konoha: Starting as a Medical Ninja

Hongzhi spoke casually, then continued studying the scroll in his hand, while Sheren was slapped again.

The development of ninjas on the moon is quite different from that in the ninja world. They are all direct descendants of Hamura, and their talent can be described as very strong.

This resulted in many ninjutsu techniques being directly ahead of the ninja world. For example, in terms of puppet control, they were able to condense a chakra ball as the core of the puppet, allowing them to control the puppet's actions from a distance.

It's essentially controlled by thought, and it only needs its chakra replenished periodically.

If Sasori of the Red Sand found out, he'd probably run away with his puppet overnight.

Can't be bothered.

However, this technique is not something anyone can learn; only those with the purest bloodline can condense a chakra orb.

These orbs of light can even directly invade the human body, turning it into a puppet that only knows how to obey commands.

Hongzhi tried to condense a sphere of chakra, but found that he could not succeed at all. Considering the above introduction, Hongzhi could confirm that this was a use of bloodline energy.

It could even be said to be a way of using a bloodline limit that is innate on the moon. It's just unknown whether the Hyuga clan has a way to use it. If they do, then Sasori of the Red Sand will probably have to run away.

Hongzhi quietly studied the contents above. It wasn't that Hongzhi was neglecting his duties, but rather that this thing was somewhat related to the soul.

Once the chakra orb is injected into a human body, it will deprive that person of control over their body. How could this be unrelated to the soul?

After several more attempts, Hongzhi gave up studying the chakra orb and instead looked at another scroll.

These are all ninjutsu related to the soul on the moon, and Hiroji hopes to find some special inspiration from them.

While Hiroji was conducting his research here, Toneri was contemplating how to break free from the constraints on his body and then, with the power of the Tenseigan, directly suppress this outsider.

This was once a temple. As a descendant of Hamura, he was protected by his ancestors and was able to borrow a portion of the Tenseigan's power.

Just as Sheren was trying to study the Four Symbols Seal, the Shadow Clone walked over with a friendly expression.

This time it wasn't because of slapping the attendant, but because of a scroll that Hongzhi had just looked at.

The scroll is titled: The Caged Bird.

It clearly records everything about the caged bird, even including how to break free from it.

To Hongzhi's surprise, there was a brand new version of the Caged Bird here, and the improved version of the Caged Bird could directly affect the soul.

Even if the Caged Bird Seal is eventually removed, there's no way to restore the forbidden zone behind the Byakugan. It can be said that once a new Caged Bird Seal is imprinted, that person will never have a chance to turn things around.

Thinking back on the events on the moon, it seems that Toneri was originally from a branch family, and that giant Tenseigan was also from a branch family.

The branch family was originally a victim of the Caged Bird Sequence. After cracking the original Caged Bird Sequence, they directly developed an even more terrifying version to target the former main family.

Thinking about it this way is somewhat inspiring, but none of this has anything to do with Hongzhi. Since he got the solution to the Caged Bird problem out of nowhere, Hyuga Neji's choice has been elevated from backup to first priority.

There's absolutely no need to worry about her bloodline purity, and her physical condition is much better than Hinata Hyuga's; she's practically the perfect experimental subject.

As for Hinata Hyuga, she is indeed beautiful, but her physical condition is really poor!

Of course, Hongzhi wouldn't go out of his way to capture Hyuga Neji right now; he would need to make some preparations.

For example, the shadow clone went to prepare some stem cells for Toneri, which is the foundation for Hyuga Neji's transformation. As for what will happen to Toneri, a useless person who needs three years, he can only become raw material.

Inside the laboratory, when Sheren was strapped to a chair, he was somewhat terrified; he had too many questions.

How did this person know about the Tenseigan? And not only did they know, they even prepared the Byakugan in advance!

Chapter 235 The Disappearance of Neji

Over the next few days, Sheren experienced the most terrifying thing in his life, having to take medicine every time he opened his eyes.

According to his understanding of the ninja world, it should be called a blood-replenishing medicine, and then there would be blood being drawn, and sometimes even arms being cut off.

What made him feel most uneasy was that the severed arm could actually grow back, which made him feel like he had been turned upside down.

Finally, at the end of the seventh day, he was no longer able to experience that nightmarish ordeal, and he was immediately locked up in the dungeon.

The man didn't even mention the Tenseigan again, which surprised Shiren. Could it be that someone else besides him could be born with the Tenseigan?

There probably aren't any left!

Even the Byakugan princess, who has the purest bloodline in the ninja world, lacks something special; otherwise, her physique wouldn't be so weak.

But the intruder's actions made Shiren feel a little strange. Wasn't this person afraid of the Tenseigan?

This problem was destined to be unsolvable. While Hongzhi was still studying the scroll, the shadow clone returned directly to the Root base of Konoha through the Kamui dimension.

The purpose of the shadow clone's return this time is simple: to take Hyuga Neji away directly. Since Toneri cannot awaken the Tenseigan in a short time, then find someone else.

If Neji Hyuga doesn't show any special reaction within a month, then continue capturing Hanabi Hyuga. As for Hinata Hyuga, let's keep her for now.

After all, his physical condition was really poor, and Hongzhi felt that there was a possibility of an accident when the stem cells of the person he was supposed to inject were injected.

Because of the Root shadow clones watching over him, Hiroji could clearly know whether Hyuga Neji had gone on a mission or not.

Fortunately, they were lucky. Matt Kai's third squad had just returned from a mission yesterday and would have at least three days to rest.

In the dead of night, on the familiar Hyuga clan grounds, the last time the shadow clones came, they had to be more careful, but this time they were walking openly toward the place where Hyuga Neji lived.

Along the way, any ninjas who encountered shadow clones would inexplicably faint. This was a wide-range genjutsu attack. If you looked closely, you could see that white feathers seemed to float by in the sky before they fainted.

This is a genjutsu that Kabuto Yakushi once used, enhanced by Yin Attribute Transformation Limit Break +10 and the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.

If this were the Chunin Exams, Hiruzen Sarutobi would probably be lying down and taking a nap.

However, since it's not the Chunin Exams, only a few night patrol ninja from the Hyuga clan were injured.

Upon entering the courtyard where Hyuga Neji lived, the shadow clone noticed that the ground in the courtyard had been disturbed.

After a moment's thought, the shadow clone realized that the Hidden Cloud Village must have returned Hyuga Hizashi's body, and the one who caused this was none other than Hiroji himself.

Thinking of this, the shadow clone continued walking inside. It seemed that he was used to living alone. Hyuga Neji's behavior surprised Hiroji.

As the shadow clone pushed open the door, a palm slapped directly at it. Although the palm fell to the ground before it could hit the shadow clone, the fact that the hand could detect the shadow clone's arrival was enough to demonstrate its talent.

After using Kamui to send Hyuga Neji to the Kamui dimension, the shadow clone disappeared without a trace. No one knows he was there. Tomorrow, a supernatural event will occur in the Hyuga clan.

On the moon, Hongzhi, who was flipping through a scroll, suddenly stopped. The ninjas on the moon were quite something.

The scroll that Hiroji is looking at is a ninjutsu that concerns the soul, and it can be said that every branch family must learn this ninjutsu.

Because they used this ninjutsu to transfer most of their bloodline energy into the Byakugan, and then created a giant Tenseigan.

This seems fine at first glance, but if we transfer some of it to a soul technique, get Itachi Uchiha to willingly hand over the Totsuka Blade and the Yata Mirror, and then use the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan as a medium to integrate them into Hiroji's soul, that would be quite promising.

The fusion of the giant Tenseigan was also achieved by using the Byakugan of a branch family leader as a medium and the soul as the core. The success rate of what Hiroji did was quite high.

Itachi Uchiha's soul would suffer permanent damage, but this would have no effect on Hiroji.

As for whether Itachi Uchiha was willing, just put a knife to Sasuke Uchiha's neck and ask him.

Anyway, Orochimaru has the coordinates, so I can go check it out anytime.

Hongzhi is preparing to study the composition scroll of this giant Tenseigan. If everything goes smoothly, many things can be solved directly, and it will be quite simple to change from voluntary to non-voluntary.

Once it's found, half the problem of the Tailed Beast's soul will be solved. The remaining half is how Hongzhi can ensure he isn't affected after absorbing the Tailed Beast's soul.

When all the shadow clones were recalled, Hiroji realized that the Caged Bird Seal on Hyuga Neji had been removed. All that was left was to inject Toneri's stem cells to begin the Tenseigan's development.

This is very good news. The Tenseigan is still very powerful. According to records, if a person with the Tenseigan enters a giant Tenseigan and falls asleep, the giant Tenseigan will be slowly absorbed by him.

And that person will undergo a complete transformation as a result.

Hongzhi believed that the chosen one was him. Once the Tenseigan was completely stable, he could transplant one of them. After all, one Rinnegan was enough to avoid the Infinite Tsukuyomi, and the other one might let him experience what it was like.

Of course, the premise is to find a way to integrate them; you can't really chew them.

Early in the morning, something bad happened to the Hyuga clan, which left Hyuga Hiashi somewhat puzzled.

Several members of the tribe fainted while on night patrol.

At first, he thought it was an invasion, but after a careful inspection, he found that there were no signs of battle or anything missing from the entire Hyuga clan territory.

This left Hiashi Hyuga even more confused, and it wasn't until he was preparing for today's lesson that he realized the problem.

Neji Hyuga has disappeared. Since the misunderstanding was cleared up, the relationship between the two has improved a lot. In addition, with the return of Hizashi Hyuga's body some time ago, the relationship between the two has returned to the time when there was no caged bird.

Today was supposed to be the day to teach Hyuga taijutsu, but Hyuga Neji has disappeared.

This incident startled Hiashi Hyuga, who immediately mobilized his ninjas to search all the places where Neji Hyuga might appear. The final result was that he was indeed gone!

Based on recent events, Hiashi Hyuga had a terrifying suspicion: the supply convoy from Kumogakure had just left yesterday!

Could it be... that he wants to...?

Thinking of this, Hiashi Hyuga immediately notified Tsunade, and then personally led the Hyuga clan ninjas to give chase.

Chapter 236 We need to find a scapegoat

Hiroji quietly watched Neji soaking in the nutrient solution. After his caged bird was released last night, his vision behind him was restored.

This indicates that the Hyuga clan is still using the original Caged Bird Seal, which can bind the soul but only restricts abilities. Once the restriction is lifted, the Byakugan's abilities are restored.

The new Caged Bird directly damages the part responsible for the view behind the Byakugan; the former is like a limiter, while the latter directly damages the root.

As for testing Hyuga Neji's Byakugan recovery, it's quite simple. The shadow clone deliberately gives Hyuga Neji a chance to escape, and then sneaks up on him from behind once he starts using his Byakugan.

In the end, Neji Hyuga discovered the attack but was still knocked unconscious, which was enough to prove that his Byakugan had recovered.

It's absurd that the new Caged Bird has a few more marks than the original, but the way to remove them is exactly the same. The only difference is that one can be removed, while the other's being marked means the end of the game.

After Neji Hyuga received the stem cells from Toneri, he did not experience any unusual reaction, which is actually abnormal because he did not even have the most basic rejection reaction.

Although it has the effect of healing, it also proves Hyuga Neji's potential. I dare not say anything else, but he should be more talented than that guy Toneri, and he should awaken the Tenseigan earlier.

If they could obtain two pairs of Tenseigan, Hiroji could use one pair for research, Neji Hyuga would definitely collect them for transplantation, and as for Toneri, his pair could be used for research.

The Tenseigan and Rinnegan are probably the pinnacle of the Otsutsuki bloodline. Perhaps they have some things in common. If you really look for them, you can unlock the Rinnegan.

After observing Hyuga Neji for a while, Hiroji turned and left. Although the reaction was good, the development of new chakra still needed some time.

Even if the Byakugan doesn't evolve within a month, there should be some special changes, such as Hyuga Neji's chakra undergoing a direct mutation.

Hongzhi handed over the repeated observations to his shadow clone, while he went to study the secret arts of the soul, as he already had the method.

Hongzhi naturally wanted to first develop the Soul Secret Technique in order to obtain the Totsuka Blade and Yata Mirror from Itachi Uchiha.

Only after completing this stage can one research the next stage of soul techniques, namely, how to perfectly devour the souls of others without having any effect on one's own soul.

While Neji Hyuga was soaking in nutrient solution, Hiashi Hyuga and his fellow Hyuga members successfully caught up with the Darui squad that had come to deliver supplies.
