Background / History

Before adopting the name Yuzuru, Bai Yang placed Karma and the remaining energy from his failing body into Jigen, intending to use Jigen's gradually strengthened body for a later rebirth. Jigen's accidental death forced the process prematurely, leaving the new body unable to bear all of Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's power. Bai Yang subsequently took the name Yuzuru, citing his connection to Jigen as the reason. 5

After inheriting Isshiki's abilities, Yuzuru recognized that openly acting against Kaguya Ōtsutsuki would be too dangerous. He chose to remain hidden for roughly a millennium, preparing hidden assets in the Shinobi World while waiting for opportunities involving Kaguya, Hagoromo, and Hamura. 5 8

During this period, Yuzuru subdued six Yokai: Chimimōryō, Phoenix, White Tiger, Qinglong, Xuanming, and Youying. He eventually sent five of them into the Shinobi World to lie in wait, while absorbing Youying into his body so that she could rest and so he could use her power. 13

After awakening from self-imposed slumber following the First Shinobi World War, Yuzuru contacted Chimimōryō for intelligence, retrieved the time-traveling Plow from Xuanming, and entered life in Konohagakure under the identity of Hyuga Yuzuru. 16 17

Appearance

Yuzuru publicly appears as a young Hyuga clansman with pure white eyes. His appearance changes dramatically when he activates his dōjutsu or chakra mode. 17 43

• Normal eyes — pure white Hyuga eyes. 17
• Byakugan — veins emerge around his eyes, accompanied by a sapphire-blue glow. 18
• Tenseigan — his eyes become sky blue and exert overwhelming dōjutsu pressure. 73
• Tenseigan Chakra Mode — enveloped in white-green chakra and capable of levitation. 43

Personality

Yuzuru is consistently calm, detached, and difficult to provoke. At the Ninja Academy, he claims to have no particular likes or dislikes and no dream yet decided; later, he names “Shinobi World peace” as his current dream. 17 47

He is highly patient and risk-conscious. Rather than retrieve the juvenile Ten-Tails and risk exposing himself to Kaguya, he chooses concealment and long-term planning. 7 8

Yuzuru usually treats subordinates and enemies as assets to be cultivated, controlled, or preserved for later use. He recruits Kageka Maple for her potential, calls Kou and Otsu his “tools,” and deploys Yokai and The Cleaners according to long-term plans. 18 60 77

Despite this utilitarian outlook, he shows consideration for Youying's condition, absorbing her to let her rest when the loss of power causes her discomfort. 13

Abilities & Skills

Byakugan

Yuzuru possesses an unusually pure and powerful Byakugan in his left eye. 7 10

• Sees through objects and perceives colors, energy flow, and internal bodily structure. 7
• Detects Kaguya from a range exceeding her own sensory range, allowing him to avoid revealing that he survived. 10
• Reads subtle facial expressions and intentions, allowing him to anticipate the Firebird's attempted retreat. 10
• Enhances combat awareness and complements his extreme Body Flicker speed. 20

Golden Rinnegan

Yuzuru's right eye is a golden, cross-shaped Rinnegan variant inherited from Isshiki. 7

• Space-Time Transfer — opens gates to alternate dimensions and allows dimensional travel. A Space-Time Sealing barrier can prevent its use. 7 60
• Sukuna Hikona — shrinks Yuzuru or targeted objects to microscopic size; he can restore shrunken objects to their original size at will. 7
  • Cannot enlarge a target beyond its original size. 7
  • Its particle-sized state interferes with enemy perception, allowing Yuzuru to attach himself unnoticed to the Firebird. 10
• Daikokuten — stores objects in an alternate dimension where time is frozen and retrieves them instantly. 7
  • Used with Sukuna Hikona to absorb the Firebird's tri-colored flames. 8
• Black Rods — used to restrain and subdue opponents, including Phoenix. 10 11
  • Qinglong can ignore their interference and control, forcing Yuzuru to use other means to subdue her. 13
• Illusion Arts: Communication — a unique Rinnegan ability that uses pre-marked Spirit Bodies to communicate remotely through illusions. 16

Tenseigan

Yuzuru's Tenseigan is identified as the ultimate evolution of the Byakugan. 24 41

• Emits dōjutsu power strong enough to intimidate Mangekyō Sharingan users. 73 75
• Creates immense attraction and repulsion forces that can pull enemies in, repel ninjutsu, and keep Wood Release from reaching him. 74 75
• Its repulsion has an observed three-second interval before it can be used again. 76
• Allows him to break Otsu's Tsukuyomi in three seconds. 77
• Grants high resistance to genjutsu; Shinji's Three-Tomoe Sharingan genjutsu fails to affect him, and Otsu's Frozen Hell is repelled. 23 74

Tenseigan Chakra Mode

Tenseigan Chakra Mode cloaks Yuzuru in white-green chakra and drastically increases his physical and dōjutsu capabilities. 43 61

• Grants levitation and aerial combat mobility. 43 69
• Strengthens his speed, strength, defense, and chakra reserves. 61
• Allows him to fight Orochimaru on near-equal terms despite his young body. 43
• Cannot be maintained for long because of its extreme chakra consumption; depletion risks affecting the Tenseigan itself. 43

Reincarnation Explosion Techniques

Yuzuru forms concentrated chakra weapons and large-scale cutting attacks through the Tenseigan. 41 43

• Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion — creates a golden chakra sword capable of slicing through Orochimaru's Four Black Snakes Formation and Hiruzen's Four Violet Flames Formation. 41 42
• Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion — used to destroy Lo after her space-time technique reaches its limit. 83
• Silver Storm — a combined defensive and offensive technique used to counter Orochimaru's Kusanagi Blade Shadow Clone Technique. 43

Ninjutsu and Taijutsu

Yuzuru is proficient in high-level academy-age shinobi techniques in addition to his dōjutsu. 24 37

• Body Flicker Technique — moves faster than the perception of ordinary Chūnin and even challenges a Two-Tomoe Sharingan's tracking ability. 19 20
• Gentle Fist — cuts off chakra flow and can temporarily paralyze an opponent, including suppressing a Sharingan. 21
• Shadow Clone Technique — has mastered the B-rank technique and frequently sends clones to the academy while his main body remains within the Hyuga Clan. 24 32
• Earth Release: Headhunter Technique — drags Uchiha Mingxi underground to secure victory in their academy match. 31
• Earth Release: Swamp of the Underworld — uses the A-rank technique to defeat Aburame Shibi. 37
• Shuriken technique — threw three shuriken in sequence to pierce directly through a target's bullseye. 29

Summoning and Yokai Command

Yuzuru commands powerful Yokai he has personally subdued. 13

• Summoned the White Tiger against Orochimaru's three-headed giant snake; the White Tiger defeated the summon. 42
• Commands Chimimōryō as an information-gatherer and infiltrator. 6 16
• Commands Phoenix, Qinglong, Xuanming, and Youying as part of his long-term hidden force. 11 13

Equipment / Items

• Plow — a time-traveling treasure retrieved from Xuanming; Yuzuru activates it by setting a destination and time. 16
• Juvenile Ten-Tails — an Ōtsutsuki asset Yuzuru can access through a coordinate dimension; he later places it back into slumber. 7 60

Relationships

• Chimimōryō — first Yokai subordinate; gathers intelligence through evil seeds and later infiltrates human society in a chosen human body. 5 6 16
• Phoenix — formerly the Demon Beast Firebird; Yuzuru subdues it with Black Rods, spares it, and grants it its new name. 10 11
• White Tiger — loyal summoned Yokai used against Orochimaru's giant snake. 13 42
• Qinglong and Xuanming — powerful Yokai subdued during Yuzuru's millennium of preparation; Xuanming safeguards the Plow. 13 16
• Youying — Yuzuru's strongest subordinate and partial creation; he injected energy and a soul imprint into her before her birth, then later absorbed her so she could rest. 13 14
• Kageka Maple — academy peer Yuzuru recruits and trains as a subordinate after recognizing her potential; she follows his orders during the Rain Village operation. 18 73
• Uchiha Akihime / Akeshi — recurring rival whose desire to defeat Yuzuru drives her training and Sharingan development. 19 20 56
• Uchiha Mingxi — academy rival and later teammate; Yuzuru defeats her in combat while acknowledging her potential. 31 73
• Orochimaru — Yuzuru's teacher and senior; Orochimaru takes pride in his growth and eventually treats him more like a peer than a student. 71 80
• Hiruzen Sarutobi — recognizes Yuzuru's extraordinary potential, monitors his development, and considers how to guide him without allowing his power to become a danger to Konoha. 24 61
• Hanzo the Salamander — Yuzuru temporarily assigns The Cleaners to strengthen Hanzo's forces, then later confronts Hanzo's Rain Village camp directly. 60 74
• Kou and Otsu — leaders of The Cleaners who fight Yuzuru without knowing his true connection to their organization; Yuzuru deliberately avoids killing them because he considers them useful tools. 73 77

Story Role / Major Arcs

• Rebirth and Kaguya preparations — adopts the name Yuzuru, inherits Isshiki's power, discovers the God Tree's threat, and chooses a millennium-long strategy of concealment. 5 7 8
• Yokai subjugation era — builds a force of six Yokai, gives several of them new names, and positions five within the Shinobi World for future orders. 11 13
• Konoha Academy arc — enters the Ninja Academy as Hyuga Yuzuru, earns the “Strongest Hyuga Genius” reputation, recruits Kageka Maple, and repeatedly defeats Uchiha rivals. 17 18 20 31

• Hidden Rain Village operation — infiltrates the Rain front with Maple and Mingxi, overwhelms Hanzo's forces, defeats Kou and Otsu's combined attack, and analyzes the Mangekyō Sharingan's techniques. 73 77 79
