Edgy Teenagers Really Are the Easiest to Fool
Honestly, very few people can resist Hinata's allure... well, I should say the allure of Hinata as an ideal.
Powerful strength, eternal life, the freedom to roam the void of the universe, witnessing the origin and destruction of the universe firsthand... just thinking about it is enough to get one's blood pumping.
Sasuke, who was going through a rebellious adolescence, had been influenced by Hinata since childhood, and had an extremely chuunibyou (delusional) mindset, simply could not resist this temptation.
Whenever Sasuke imagines the future, he feels a surge of passion burning within him.
Compared to Hinata's ideals, what is the Hokage? What is Konoha? What is the Shinobi World?
Just as Hinata said, the Ninja World is a well that traps everyone. Everyone thinks that the world is only as big as the Shinobi World and that they are the protagonists of the world.
The frog at the bottom of the well... that's a very apt description.
"What exactly is the power that guy gave me?"
Sasuke asked doubtfully, "After obtaining that Chakra, my power underwent a tremendous change..."
Sasuke was extremely curious about the Chakra his future self would give him.
Hinata chuckled softly and said calmly, "That's the Chakra of another God Tree. The essence of this power is the same as that of the Tailed Beasts. It's just that the God Tree Chakra of our world was created into Tailed Beasts by the Sage of Six Paths, while the Chakra of that other God Tree was absorbed by each of us."
"Is it very strong?"
Hinata shook her head slightly and said in a light tone, "Actually, the power of that other God Tree is far inferior to the God Tree of our world. All the power of that God Tree combined might only be comparable to half of the Nine-Tails."
"And the power we obtained was insignificant... Most of the power, including the God Tree itself, has already been destroyed by me."
Sasuke fell silent again upon hearing this, and after a long while, he asked, "How did they get here?"
"I heard it uses a magical artifact that can travel through time."
Hinata explained, "A guy named Urashiki Otsutsuki traveled through time and tried to steal my eyes. You from the future and my daughter came after us and joined forces with me to kill Urashiki."
"That guy is indeed very strong, but in the eyes of the entire Otsutsuki clan, he is just a junior, and should be considered our contemporary!"
"At this point in time, Urashiki should only be a teenager."
"Momoshiki and Kinshiki were traveling with that guy. Kinshiki was the oldest, but Kinshiki was just Momoshiki's servant, much like Tokuma Hyuga next to me."
Hinata was also quite indignant at this point.
Natsu Hyuga, who is by Hanabi's side, Kinshiki, who is by Momoshiki's side, are either good-looking or powerful.
Look at Tokuma Hyuga... all he has is tactlessness and despicable behavior.
Sasuke asked curiously, "From what you're saying, the God Tree of our world is different from the other God Trees?"
"Kindness!"
Hinata nodded and said, "Our world is filled with a lot of Natural Energy, and your Cursed Seal is a rudimentary application of Natural Energy."
Sasuke touched the Cursed Seal on the back of his neck and said slowly, "After obtaining Urashiki's Chakra, I have a clearer understanding of this power."
Hinata continued, "Natural Energy is the nourishment for the God Tree. Natural Energy is everywhere in the universe, but this power is like soil; some places are fertile, and some places are barren."
"And our world is the best nursery for planting the God Tree."
"But..."
Hinata's tone turned serious at this point.
"We do not yet know how far back the history of the Otsutsuki clan is, but the main branch of this clan has a tradition of leaving power to future generations."
"Sasuke, do you know what this means?"
Sasuke picked up where Hinata off, his tone cold. "This means that there must be an even more terrifying being within this clan."
"That's right!"
Hinata said with absolute certainty, "The power passed down from generation to generation, even if it is weak at the beginning, will eventually lead to a qualitative change as time goes by."
"Kaguya's God Tree can indeed grant people immortality, but there may be such powerful individuals within the Otsutsuki clan as well."
"Urashiki and Momoshiki... they are just juniors sent by the Otsutsuki clan to train in the Shinobi World, while Kinshiki is a servant who protects Momoshiki."
"Just like when we first went to the Land of Waves on a mission, our Hyuga Clan sent four ninjas to protect us in secret, Konoha also sent two teams of Anbu to protect Naruto."
At this point, Hinata also felt a sense of urgency.
"A thousand years ago, Kaguya had already obtained the power of immortality, but she was still full of fear of the Otsutsuki clan."
"The future you only obtained a Rinnegan and the power of Yin of the Sage of Six Paths, yet you were enough to fight against Urashiki... So what about the others?"
Based on Hinata's description, Sasuke was able to roughly determine Kaguya Otsutsuki's power.
The four words 'immortal and indestructible' alone are enough to explain everything.
However, such a powerful being was still filled with fear and unease towards the Otsutsuki clan, which is why they created the White Zetsu army.
"Twenty years from now?"
Sasuke asked, "The Momoshiki and Urashiki you mentioned, will they arrive in the Shinobi World in twenty years?"
"Kindness!"
Hinata nodded and said, "The timeline is probably correct."
Hinata paused, then continued, "My plan is to revive Kaguya Otsutsuki, then, under her leadership, rapidly increase our strength, and then launch a counterattack against the Otsutsuki clan to see what kind of people they really are."
"Urashiki's power alone can greatly increase our strength, not to mention those veteran Otsutsuki."
"We, the Hyuga Clan, and you, the Uchiha... can inherit everything from the Otsutsuki clan and become an eternal and immortal god in the universe."
As the saying goes, "A single conversation with a wise man is worth more than ten years of study."
Compared to the scenes Hinata depicted, being too obsessed with revenge is indeed as pathetic as a frog in a well.
Even if a frog jumps out of a well, it will still be a frog.
However, there are different kinds of frogs, such as ordinary frogs and the Toad Sages of Mount Myōboku.
Hinata concluded by saying, "What use is this power if we can't see this world with our own eyes?"
"Snort!"
Sasuke snorted softly upon hearing this, giving Hinata a strange look.
Come to think of it, it seems like my future self was abandoned by Hinata.
According to her future self, Hinata went to space alone with Kaguya Otsutsuki, abandoning everyone else in the Ninja World.
That's why my future self used certain words to hint that I could come and find Hinata.
"Perhaps my future self will also have some regrets!"
Sasuke thought to himself, "What good is it to gain unparalleled strength if I can't see this world for myself and am abandoned in the Ninja World?"
" To Guardian Ninja world?"
"Laugh--"
With a sneer, Sasuke looked at Hinata and said, "Tomorrow... I'm going to seek revenge on Danzo. You'll provide me with information!"
Sasuke previously refused Hinata's help because he didn't want to involve Hinata. Now, Sasuke is asking Hinata for help, which shows that he truly considers Hinata a comrade and is willing to join Sasuke's Hinata to witness Hinata universe together.
