Chapter Summaries

Hinata attended the Ninja Academy’s opening class while reflecting on how her [Immortal Body] and [Byakugan] had evolved into powerful abilities, including the Tenseigan. She remained uncertain how to advance her abilities further, but planned to keep pursuing growth as the Third Hokage’s speech ended.

• Sasuke watched Hinata during his introduction, while Naruto announced his ambition to become Hokage and Hinata introduced herself briefly.
• Iruka and the Third Hokage explained the Will of Fire to the students.
• Hinata reviewed her System Panel and noted that [Immortal Body] had reached Level 2 and [Byakugan] had evolved into the Tenseigan, granting her control over attraction, repulsion, and space.
• Hinata considered ways to advance her abilities, including combining the Rinnegan with the Tenseigan, but found that Bizarre Creature energy could not be absorbed and set aside the idea of devouring Otsutsuki Kaguya.
• Hinata withdrew her attention from the System Panel when the Third Hokage finished speaking and noticed the students were still listening attentively.

At the Academy, Hinata compressed her True Qi while Iruka taught the students about ghosts, creatures that Hidden Leaf Village could not destroy and that had begun appearing more often. Iruka warned the class to stay calm, learn a ghost’s rules, and act within their limits.

• The Third Hokage finished his speech and left, and Iruka taught the students how to refine Chakra.
• Naruto quickly refined Chakra while Hinata absorbed Nature Energy and compressed her True Qi; her evolving constitution greatly increased how much energy she could hold, so she stopped absorbing it to avoid draining the world.
• After lunch, Iruka wrote “Ghost” on the blackboard and explained that Hidden Leaf Village had discovered the creatures two years earlier and could only contain them with Sealing Jutsu.
• Iruka told the students that ghosts lacked intelligence and followed specific rules, advising them to stay calm, observe those rules, and act within their limits.
• Iruka recalled that more than half of the twenty-plus ninja on a recent ghost operation had died.

Hinata learned that Bizarre Creatures had caused mass deaths across the countries and that the Hidden Leaf Village had begun teaching students how to deal with Oni. After discovering how many Oni the village held and reviewing its research, she found that its knowledge was limited and focused heavily on the creatures’ Jinchuriki.

• The Third Hokage and the village elders decided to teach students about Bizarre Creatures after the Feudal Lord pressured the village to address the growing threat.
• Iruka told the class that Oni could not be killed by any known method and warned that another way of fighting them could permanently damage or kill the user.
• Hinata asked Hyuga Hiashi whether the Hyuga clan had captured any Oni, and he confirmed they held one because the village limited each major clan to a single Oni.
• Hyuga Hiashi revealed that the village could no longer control all the Oni it had captured and had more than twenty Oni Jinchuriki, each monitored by a Sealing Squad.
• Hyuga Hiashi gave Hinata the village’s research reports, and she found that they offered little new information and focused mostly on experiments involving Jinchuriki.

Hinata read the experimental report on Headcutter and tested the creature’s powers before joining her family for a meal. Three years later, she defeated Sasuke again after using a modified Rotation to withstand his Fire Style, leaving their classmates amazed.

• Hinata read the Headcutter report and tested its ropes and blood figure in the empty study.
• Hiashi went to the Hokage Building to demand an explanation for Hinata’s exposure to the Bizarre Creatures, while Hinata ate with her pregnant mother.

• Sasuke used the Great Fireball Technique and the Phoenix Sage Fire Technique, but Hinata’s Rotation: Modified dispersed the flames without harming her.
• Hinata beat Sasuke until the teacher stopped the duel, and the watching students were shocked by her technique.

Sasuke returned home beaten after another failed duel with Hinata, while Itachi and Fugaku discussed her skill and the Uchiha Clan’s improving ties with the village. Danzo’s schemes against the Uchiha kept being disrupted by escaped Bizarre Creatures, and the chapter ended with one appearing outside the Root’s entrance as Danzo moved against Shisui.

• Fugaku asked about Shisui, and Itachi said Shisui had been assigned as the Third Hokage’s personal guard.
• Uchiha casualties fighting Bizarre Creatures led the clan to team up with other village ninja, gradually bringing the Uchiha and the village closer.
• Two Bizarre Creatures escaped Danzo’s laboratory, forcing Root to recapture them and delaying Danzo’s plan to discredit the Uchiha.
• When Danzo later tried to take Shisui’s eyes, a Bizarre Creature appeared outside the Root’s entrance.

Hinata celebrated her victory over Sasuke at home and taught Gentle Fist to Hanabi. Naruto finally told Hinata he wanted to be her friend, and she accepted, leaving him overjoyed and determined to protect her.

• Hinata confirmed to Hanabi that she had beaten Sasuke and blocked his ninjutsu with Rotation.
• Hinata played at teaching Hanabi Gentle Fist after dinner while Hyuga Hiashi let them spend time together.

• Hinata accepted Naruto as her friend, wiped away his tears, and told him to protect himself before promising to protect her.

• Sakura joined Rock Lee and another girl in following the others, believing the school building would be safer with Hinata there.

Hinata's classmates reached the rooftop after fighting through the Puppet Corpses, where they were trapped in an apparent alternate dimension and faced a Skeleton Giant. Sasuke damaged the giant, and Naruto pinned its severed arm before it could rejoin the body.

• Sakura and the others fought their way through the corpse-filled school and found Hinata resting on the rooftop.
• The sun vanished, the students on the field disappeared, and Shino noticed that their Chakra was slowly draining away.
• A bone-armored Skeleton Giant emerged from the rooftop floor and advanced on the group.
• Shino's insects severed the giant's left leg, and Sasuke used his Great Fireball Technique to blast off its right arm.
• Naruto threw himself onto the severed arm to stop it from crawling back to the giant.

The students defeated the Skeleton Giant with a sealing jutsu and returned from the alternate dimension, where Iruka told them the test was over and results would be announced the next day. After Hinata revealed how easily she had fought through the Puppet Corpses, Naruto invited her, Shikamaru, and Choji to a riverside barbecue.

After the village's test against Puppet Corpses, Hinata and her classmates planned a riverside barbecue while their families assessed the danger and prepared for stronger enemies. The Third Hokage reviewed Hinata's abilities and recognized that her Bloodline Ancestor Regression had made her a remarkable fighter, leaving him to decide how to handle the Hyuga Clan's hidden genius.

• Naruto, Shikamaru, Ino, Neji, Rock, Tenten, Kiba, Sakura, and others joined Hinata's plan for a riverside barbecue, while Sasuke protested that he had not agreed to come.

• The Third Hokage told Hinata that he intended to take her as his disciple and asked what she thought.

Hinata became a Genin after earning an S on her test, and accepted the Third Hokage’s offer to become his disciple. She brought an apprenticeship gift to the Hokage Building, where villagers and ninjas took notice of the Hokage’s new student.

• Hinata accepted the Third Hokage’s offer to teach her, and he gave her a whirlpool-patterned forehead protector after explaining she had passed the test with an S.

• Hinata decided to tie her forehead protector around her arm, but it would not stay fastened, so she planned to modify it at home.
• Hinata told Hyuga Hiashi that she had accepted the Third Hokage as her teacher, and he celebrated the news before giving her an apprenticeship gift.
• Hinata arrived at the Hokage Building with the gift, drawing attention as the Third Hokage’s new disciple and the eldest daughter of the Hyuga Clan.

Hinata told the Third Hokage that she used Nature Energy as True Qi and asked to learn every kind of ninjutsu. The Third Hokage recognized her as an immortal and planned to bring Jiraiya back to teach her.

• Hinata chose the title Great Void Immortal, and the Third Hokage resolved to summon Jiraiya to teach her.

Hinata studied the Third Hokage’s scrolls, memorized the Scroll of Seals, and met Jiraiya, who took her to Mount Myōboku to meet the Great Toad Sage. As they arrived, Hinata wondered about the Summoning Jutsu’s spatial power and her growing resemblance to Otsutsuki Kaguya.

• Hinata considered the spatial power behind the Summoning Jutsu and realized she now resembled Otsutsuki Kaguya by at least thirty percent.

On Mount Myōboku, Jiraiya tried to teach Hinata Senjutsu but discovered that her True Qi could not work with ordinary ninjutsu. The Great Toad Sage awakened Hinata’s Tenseigan, and she displayed its powers before him.

• The Great Toad Sage recognized Hinata’s resemblance to someone from his past and predicted she would reach the pinnacle of the Shinobi World, then privately wondered about her bloodline and ability to use Nature Energy.
• Hinata gathered Nature Energy from a hundred-meter radius and compressed it into a crystal, leaving Jiraiya unable to teach her more about its use.
• Jiraiya spent two days teaching Hinata Senjutsu but found that her True Qi could not be used like Senjutsu Chakra, so he apologized for being unable to help her further.
• The Great Toad Sage summoned Hinata and sent a power into her eyes, which she recognized as an opportunity to awaken her Tenseigan.
• Hinata’s eyes became brilliant sapphire blue, and she floated in the air surrounded by sky-blue energy and three Truth-Seeking Orbs.

• The Great Toad Sage gave Hinata a scroll about the Tenseigan and let her leave Mount Myōboku.
• Hinata sensed that her Tenseigan had awakened the giant Tenseigan on the moon, but decided not to pursue it.
