All Heavens: Transcending Dimensions Starting with the Uchiha

(In contrast, although Ichiraku Otsutsuki awakened the Tenseigan, his lack of "purity" made it extremely difficult for him to break through the Six Paths level, at most reaching the Super Kage level.)

He adopted a tone of earnest advice and spoke slowly.

"Therefore, Master She, I must, I absolutely must, determine some things in advance."

"What do you want to confirm?"

Otsutsuki Toneri looked up, as if he had realized something, and slowly opened his empty eye sockets.

"I need to determine if you are qualified to control the giant Tenseigan on your own."

Ōtsutsuki Mano stared at his son's terrifyingly empty eyes, his expression serious.

"If I could, I would go to the Hyuga clan on Earth before my body reaches its limit and retrieve a pair of Byakugan of sufficient purity for you, to prepare you for the future development of a truly 'pure' Tenseigan!"

"Aren't you worried about being discovered, Father?"

Otsutsuki Toneri was not worried about his inability to control the power of the giant Tenseigan.

But he was worried that his father's actions would expose the Moon Otsutsuki clan, who had been living in seclusion for many years, back to the eyes of people on Earth.

Chapter 215, The "True" Tenseigan

Otsutsuki Toneri knew that among the people on Earth today, there was a thief whose strength and ambition were terrifyingly powerful, who had stolen the Gedo Mazo from the moon seal.

There is also another ninja who combines the bloodlines of the Uchiha and Senju clans and has the potential to awaken the Sage Rinnegan...

Given his father's current physical condition, it's really hard to say that he could obtain a pair of Byakugan with sufficient purity from the Hyuga clan of Konoha without leaving any trace.

If either of them were to discover the father's whereabouts, it would be a terrifying crisis that could lead to the complete annihilation of the Moon Otsutsuki clan, which is currently facing a decline in its bloodline and a lack of successors.

"If we do nothing now, we still risk being discovered."

Ōtsutsuki Mano sighed and said in a heavy tone.

"Since I might be discovered no matter what I do, I'd rather take the initiative and try to create better growth conditions for the students."

"Now, in the shrine built to worship our ancestor, Ōtsutsuki Hamura, show me, your father, Ōtsutsuki Mano, and all the ancestors who willingly sacrificed their eyes to create this giant Tenseigan and carry out Hamura's destiny to the end, show your talent, power, and qualifications, my son, Ōtsutsuki Toneri!"

……

On the outskirts of Konoha, deep in a dark, dense forest, shortly after Otsutsuki Mano descended upon the ninja world.

The dense canopy of trees blocked out the moonlight, with only a few gaps letting in pale spots of light.

The air was damp and heavy, filled with the smell of earth and decaying wood.

An old and slightly hunched figure—Otsutsuki Mano—was cautiously navigating the forest, relying on his senses with his empty eye sockets closed.

He tried his best to conceal his aura, like a ghost blending into the night, his target being the Hyuga clan's territory in Konoha.

Suddenly, the ground in front of him silently rose up, and a viscous, pitch-black substance, like petroleum, slowly condensed into shape—it was Black Zetsu.

"Hiss..."

Black Zetsu let out a chilling chuckle, his hoarse voice carrying a sticky, resonant quality.

"Distinguished guests from afar, you seem to be in a hurry. Where are you headed? To the Hyuga clan's territory in Konoha?"

Otsutsuki Mano abruptly stopped, his body tensing instantly. His empty eye sockets stared in Black Zetsu's direction, and a sharp, ancient aura erupted from him:

"Who?! A filthy earthling... how could he sense my presence?"

"Hehehe..."

Black Zetsu's body twitched slightly, as if silently mocking him.

"Don't be nervous, you remnant of the Otsutsuki clan. I am not your enemy; on the contrary, I may be the 'friend' you need most right now."

"friend?"

Ōtsutsuki Mano's voice was filled with distrust and wariness.

"What right do you have to call yourself a friend when you're hiding your true nature? You exude a repulsive aura... and seem to have some connection with that thief who stole the demonic statue!"

"A connection? Ah, you mean that 'Uchiha Madara'?"

Black Zetsu's voice carried a deliberate understatement.

“He is indeed a troublesome thief. However, I am paying attention to you because we have a common enemy.”

"A common enemy?" Mano frowned.

"Yes."

Black Zetsu's voice suddenly turned cold, filled with deep-seated hatred, "That man who is trampling on the old order and proclaiming himself 'Emperor of Heaven' on the ruins of the capital of the Land of Fire—Uchiha Sō!"

Upon hearing this name, Otsutsuki Mano's aura visibly fluctuated.

"Uchiha Ei... that descendant who stole the power of his clan? That ninja who supposedly possessed terrifying eye power, having combined the power of the Uchiha and Senju clans?"

"It's him!"

Black Zetsu's voice was highly inflammatory.

"Look at the bloodshed he unleashed in the ninja world! The five great nations' daimyo, countless nobles, ninja villages... all vanished under the iron hooves of his 'Heavenly Court,' their heads rolling in droves!"

He's even more insane and dangerous than Madara Uchiha!

He not only stole power, but also attempted to overturn the very foundation of the world!

He is the biggest 'cancer' in the ninja world!

He is also the greatest threat to your Otsutsuki clan on the moon!

Because both he and Madara Uchiha ultimately aim for the seal of the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path that you are protecting!

Mano fell silent, the information about Uchiha Sho corroborating the terrifying power he vaguely sensed from his Tenseigan.

This enemy is indeed more troublesome than expected.

How can you prove your claim?

Mano asked in a deep voice, but the hostility in his tone had softened somewhat.

"prove?"

Black Zetsu let out a low laugh. "I don't need to prove his atrocities; his actions are already common knowledge. But I can prove my 'sincerity'... and the 'help' I can offer you."

Black Zetsu's viscous body slowly writhed, and a crystal container, shimmering with soft white light and sealed with special chakra, separated from its body and floated in the air.

Inside the container, there was a pair of pure, flawless eyes, radiating powerful vitality and insight!

"This...this is?!"

Even without eyes, Mano could clearly sense the pure power emanating from the container, the power belonging to the bloodline of Otsutsuki Hamura!

The purity of these eyes far surpassed that of most of the clan eyes on the moon that he remembered!

"High-purity white eye."

Black Zetsu's voice was seductive.

"A Byakugan that is purer and more perfect than the one you risked infiltrating Konoha to steal from the Hyuga main family!"

Is this the "Caged Bird" of the Hyuga branch family?

Ha, that's nothing more than a vile cursed seal that twists the bloodline, invented by the Hyuga clan to counter your potential plunder.

These eyes, unmarked and unbound, are the perfect vessel prepared specifically for your…exceptionally gifted son!

Mano's breathing became heavy. The appearance of those eyes instantly shattered all his doubts and the risks in his plans.

This is simply a gift from heaven!

He reached out his hand, and a gentle force drew the crystal container into his palm.

The pure chakra fluctuations emanating from his fingertips made him tremble with excitement.

"What...what do you want?"

Mano's voice carried a hint of barely perceptible urgency.

He knew that there was no such thing as a free lunch.

"Cooperation."

Black Zetsu's voice was resolute: "A cooperation that benefits both sides."

"Say!"

"It's very simple."

Black Zetsu moved closer, his voice lower and filled with an air of conspiracy.

"Take these eyes back with you and have your son, Otsutsuki Toneri, fuse with them as soon as possible and awaken his true power—the 'Tenseigan' that is powerful enough to control the giant Tenseigan!"

When he fully mastered that power and became a true 'god'...

Black Zetsu paused, his tone turning incredibly sinister:

"Let him activate the giant Tenseigan and destroy Konoha Village with overwhelming force!"

Wipe that Uchiha Eiji's painstakingly built lair, along with his so-called 'new order,' completely off the map!

Most importantly, eliminate that scourge of the ninja world—the Fifth Hokage, Uchiha Sō!

If he dies, the ninja world will be thrown into chaos, and Madara Uchiha's plans will be severely hampered.

At that time, retrieving the Gedo Mazo and fulfilling the 'destiny' protected by Hamura's ancestors will be a piece of cake for your Otsutsuki clan on the moon!

"Destroy Konoha... Slay Uchiha Sō..."

Mano repeated in a low voice, as if flames called "mission" and "revenge" were burning in his empty eye sockets.

The threat from Uchiha Enoki, the hatred for Uchiha Madara's theft, and the absolute insistence on the destiny of Hamura's ancestors, all perfectly aligned with Black Zetsu's proposal at this moment.

"it is good!"

Ōtsutsuki Mano gripped the crystal container tightly, his tone becoming incredibly resolute, carrying the determination of a martyr.

"For the destiny of our ancestors, Hamura! To cleanse the earth of its filth and threats!"

I, Otsutsuki Mano, representing the Otsutsuki clan of the Moon, agree to your cooperation!

Once Toneri masters the power of the gods, Konoha will surely perish, and Uchiha Sō will surely die!
