Urashiki's Backup Plan
Hinata touched her index fingers together, exchanged a slightly shy glance with Hyuga Hiashi embarrassed.
"This is the difference in Senjutsu Chakra!"
Hinata explained first, "Although Father's physique has improved, it seems he hasn't awakened the Sage Body..."
In the end, Hinata also somewhat confused and puzzled.
Hyuga Hiashi's chakra still only contains spiritual and physical energy, but not Natural Energy.
The Natural Energy contained within the Urashiki chakra seems to have completely evaporated.
Hyuga Hiashi seemed to sense something, and said calmly, "Perhaps it's because of my eyes?"
"Eye?"
Hinata looked curiously into Hyuga Hiashi's eyes.
"Is that so..."
As he spoke, a small black dot suddenly appeared in the center of Hyuga Hiashi's white pupils. The small black dot quickly spread outwards, forming a circular shape.
Hyuga Hiashi's Byakugan had completely disappeared, replaced by blue eyes with white circles inside.
"Puff--"
Hinata almost spat out her soda.
What is this?
The Rinnegan?
Such a thing actually happened?
Hinata observed carefully for a moment and noticed Rinnegan Hyuga Hiashi's Rinnegan differed from Nagato's in color. Hyuga Hiashi's Rinnegan was blue, exactly the same as Urashiki Otsutsuki's first-form Rinnegan.
Urashiki Otsutsuki's Rinnegan has two forms: it is blue in its normal Rinnegan state, and red when it transforms into the Six-Tomoe Rinnegan.
Hinata asked with a face full of curiosity, "Father, what abilities do your eyes have?"
Hyuga Hiashi calmed himself down and pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't know yet, I need to try it."
"However, this eye technique should not be revealed at the moment."
After saying that, Hyuga Hiashi closed his Rinnegan, and his eyes returned to their Byakugan form.
Hinata watched with envy. Hyuga Hiashi had awakened the Rinnegan so easily, while she herself still hadn't found the Tenseigan!
"Hinata!"
Hyuga Hiashi suddenly became serious, Hinata also put on a stern face, looking at Hyuga Hiashi earnestly.
"Sit down and let's talk!"
The father and daughter returned to the study and sat facing each other on either side of the desk.
Hyuga Hiashi boiled water to make tea, and judging from his expression, he clearly had a lot to say.
Taking the tea from Hyuga Hiashi, Hinata suddenly remembered something and said nervously, "Father, there might be a reason why you awakened the Rinnegan. If one day you suddenly have the urge to summon something, remember, whatever you do, don't do it!"
"I see!"
Hyuga Hiashi asked calmly, "Is this the legendary Rinnegan?"
"Kindness!"
Hinata nodded and explained, "The Rinnegan is known as one of the three great dojutsu, but the Dojutsu power of the Rinnegan is much stronger than that of the Byakugan and Sharingan... However, Father's Rinnegan is only the most basic Rinnegan, and it needs to continue absorbing Yin-Yang Power to evolve."
"But this Rinnegan..."
Hinata does indeed have some worries.
Before Kaguya was sealed away, she created something called Black Zetsu. No one can guarantee that Urashiki may also have a backup plan for resurrection.
Although Hinata used three different sensory abilities at the moment Urashiki was sealed, she couldn't detect anything strange or unusual nearby.
However, no one can guarantee that Urashiki won't tamper with the portion of chakra he separated.
Hinata was also somewhat annoyed, wondering why she hadn't thought of this before.
The Sage of Six Paths did not absorb the Ten-Tails' chakra, but instead divided it into nine parts, turning them into Nine Tailed Beasts. Could there have been some consideration behind this decision?
Although the God Tree of the Ninja World, the 'Demonic Statue of the Outer Path', has merged with Kaguya, the God Tree's chakra exists independently.
The Sage of Six Paths was able to absorb the Ten-Tails' chakra...
Seeing Hinata's worried expression, Hyuga Hiashi frowned and asked, "Hinata, what are you worried about?"
Hinata shook her head.
"It's nothing... In two or three years at most, all the problems will be gone!"
"Father, just as you said before, please don't use the Rinnegan's abilities for now."
Hyuga Hiashi continued, "So... within this chakra, there is also the will of someone else?"
"That's possible!"
Hinata said with great concern, "My friend and I... we can temporarily suppress this person's will, so we didn't consider this. But Father can't do that yet..."
Hinata has now figured some things out.
Although Urashiki has been completely sealed, if the God Tree within Urashiki is summoned and all chakra is withdrawn, Urashiki could potentially be resurrected in the Shinobi World.
If Hinata hadn't noticed that Hyuga Hiashi's Rinnegan was the same color as Urashiki's, she might not have realized this.
Chakra contains spiritual energy... and Urashiki's chakra must also contain his will.
Urashiki might not be able to control this chakra remotely, but he would inevitably be affected by Urashiki Hyuga Hiashi, summoning the true form of the God Tree and absorbing it into his body...
Hyuga Hiashi nodded and said, "I will not use the Rinnegan's abilities for the time being... This is not only because of your concerns, but also to protect the Hyuga Clan."
Regardless of what the future holds for the Shinobi World, at least in the present, the five great Shinobi World Five Great Shinobi Villages are still hostile to each other, and the Fourth Shinobi World War could break out at any time.
Once Hyuga Hiashi's Rinnegan is exposed, the entire Hyuga Clan will become prey in the eyes of others.
Even in Konoha, there must be people who covet the power of the Rinnegan and secretly plot against the Hyuga Clan.
Hyuga Hiashi continued, "Hinata! With your current strength, you can protect yourself in the face of any crisis. As for the Hyuga Clan... I can hold them off for a while."
"But your experience tells me that the crisis in the Shinobi World doesn't just come from the other major Shinobi Village... Is that right?"
Hinata hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Father, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but you'll understand all of this in three or four years."
"I just can't say... I'm sorry yet!"
Hinata somewhat ashamed!
"Well!"
With a soft sigh, Hyuga Hiashi said with a mixture of relief and sadness, "Hinata, you've grown up. You've started to have your own ideas and plans."
"As your father, I won't stop you!"
"But I want you to remember that you will always be the heir of the Hyuga Clan, and my daughter!"
Hinata nodded vigorously.
"Kindness!"
"Father, rest assured! I will definitely protect the Hyuga Clan!"
Hinata spoke with utmost seriousness.
"Actually, you don't need to worry too much. In the current Shinobi World... I can handle everything!"
Leaving aside Konoha, at least within the village, no one can lay a hand on the Hyuga Clan.
Even those who separate from their families are like Caged Bird.
This Cursed Seal, which once controlled the freedom to separate families, now seems to have become a form of protection.
The Akatsuki has become Hinata's strength.
Hinata even believed that if she told Black Zetsu that she wanted to kill the Tsuchikage and Raikage, Black Zetsu would dare to have Obito Nagato making a move.
