Byakugan

Activate!

His field of vision instantly broadened, like a god's-eye view. Not from above, but centered on himself, allowing him to observe a full 360-degree field with no blind spots.

Its telescopic capability far surpassed the Sharingan. He could freely inspect anything within a kilometer with absolute clarity. It was practically a cheat-enabled minimap—how could it not be used for spying?

In terms of practicality and strategic value, it blew the Sharingan out of the water. Of course, that referred to the highest level of the Three Tomoe Sharingan.

Compared to the Sharingan, which needed love or whatever and had to slowly evolve bit by bit into the Three Tomoe, the Byakugan was simply the king of cost-effectiveness!

Naturally, that was without discussing the Mangekyo Sharingan. It always felt as though the Byakugan was two stages behind it, only to leap straight to the Tenseigan, on the same level as the Rinnegan.

Looking at the bigger picture, how many Sharingan users had truly reached the Mangekyo Sharingan? Hardly any. The same was true even throughout the history of the Uchiha Clan.

So there was nothing much to discuss. Neji directly inspected the area within a one-kilometer radius.

Before long, he found several suitable locations on the island of the Land of Waves. After all, he planned to place the base inside a mountain.

Closing his Byakugan, Neji slowly rose to his feet. He glanced at the two people inside the cultivation tanks, then spoke softly to Izumi.

"Let's go. I've already found a suitable location."

"Yes!"

This had been part of the plan from the very beginning. Neither of them changed out of their Mist Ninja Hunter Corps uniforms, lest anyone spot them. After all, some things were impossible to guard against.

Neji had added plenty of calming substances to the nutrient fluid in the two giant cans, so it was impossible for the two to wake up. Leaving them here was fine.

The two soon left the temporary base and arrived at their chosen location, where they began forming hand seals for the Mud Transformation Technique.

Three days later, when ninjas handled construction, they were invincible. One hand turned rock into mud, while the other condensed earth into stone. Building such a massive base was effortless.

Neji had practically forced ninjas into becoming cultivators. It really wasn't easy, and it could be said that he had revolutionized the era.

No!

There was also Yamato of One Room Two Halls and Wood Release, standing toe-to-toe with him. He could not be underestimated.

The new base had been roughly completed, and Zabuza and Haku had also had their nutrient fluid changed several times. Their injuries had finally soaked through with flavor. It was time to open the cans.

However, since both of them were men, it would be awkward for Izumi to deal with them, so he did not ask her to help.

Neji casually pulled out two long objects—the legendary nightmare of childhood, syringes!

Female Hormone

His gaze landed on Haku. Good heavens, with that delicate skin and tender flesh, it would be a waste not to dress her as a woman.

Oh!

She had dressed as one long ago!

Then let me use my own hands to fulfill your dream. A thick syringe descended directly.

In just a few seconds, Neji gave a light cough and put a white hospital gown on Haku. He could not keep looking.

It had to be said that Haku possessed beauty capable of sinking fish and toppling geese. It was a pity she was not a woman, but now she had become one.

After dealing with Haku, Neji's gaze fell upon the other burly man, whose complexion was somewhat grayish.

Zabuza was rather unpleasant to look at. He had no eyebrows above his eyes, a fierce face, and quite a few scars all over his body. Even after being healed, many old scars still remained.

His body was a patchwork of gray and white, with newly grown skin mixed with old skin, making him look covered in spots.

Neji raised an eyebrow at that and looked at the other terrifying object in his hand.

"As for you, consider it a buy-one-get-one-free deal! No need to be polite. Think of it as helping you get a makeover."

"It doesn't matter if you grew up ugly. This thing comes with its own beauty filter. The big men in Pirate King were even uglier than you, yet they all became curvy, blonde, wavy-haired beauties."

Neji gripped that syringe—the kind that would make children cry and adults shudder—and brought it down without hesitation.

The same liquid was injected, but the reaction was far greater than Haku's. Mm! Truly much greater.

After all, Zabuza was twenty-five. Mature ones were always more impressive than immature ones.

Neji hurriedly dressed her as well, then snapped his fingers. Only then did Izumi enter.

"Lord Nen! They..."

Izumi's eyes narrowed. She instinctively rubbed her eyes, looked again, then immediately opened the First Gate, stirring the Chakra within her body.

Seeing that the scene remained unchanged, she confirmed that she had not fallen under Genjutsu before closing the First Gate.

"He... they, what happened?"

While Izumi had been confirming whether she was under Genjutsu, she had carefully observed the room. The cans had already been opened.

It was just that opening the cans seemed to come with a prize. The contents did not match the original pictures at all!

Wasn't this consumer fraud?

Turning males into females, turning men into women—wasn't that a bit too much?

Neji did not care and said calmly, "Nothing much. I just gave them a makeover and changed their sex while I was at it."

"Don't worry. They're one hundred percent women now, without any male characteristics whatsoever. It was a natural transformation too, so there's no need to worry."

Izumi no longer knew what to say. She merely looked at Neji with a slightly strange expression and did not ask further questions.

"How long will it take for them to wake up?"

"Mm, probably right away."

Neji made an estimate. After all, the changes caused by the Female Hormone injection also counted as a transformation.

Quite a few things inside their bodies had been converted. Many bad things had been removed, and some good things had been added.

No sooner had he spoken than the two of them's eyelids twitched slightly, as though they had returned from chaos itself. They could not even remember to pretend to remain asleep.

They groggily opened their eyes and stared blankly at the stone ceiling. Their thoughts were still in disarray, completely unorganized.

It was a perfectly normal reaction. After all, they really had "died" once, so their brain cells had suffered a little damage.

That was why their first "boot-up" was a little slow. There would be no problems afterward.

Countless fragments of memory flashed through their minds. Zabuza saw himself fighting Kakashi until his death, then seemed to see the Mist Ninja Hunter Corps again.

Meanwhile, Haku saw Naruto's talk-no-jutsu, then finally saw herself standing before Zabuza as her chest was pierced through.

"I..."

"I..."

Their eyes were hazy, but they seemed to suddenly wake up. They hurriedly looked around and discovered Neji and Izumi in white coats.

At that moment, Neji and Izumi were wearing masks and watching them, making the two instinctively wary.

"Mm! Looks like you've recovered well. My painstaking efforts to bring you back to life were not wasted. Congratulations, the operation was a success!"

Only then did the two discover that they had become women!

Cult Master Baiyue: The Earth is Round!

Li Xiaoyao: You Don't Understand Love!

They immediately activated the Mangekyo Sharingan. I want to create a world with Ling'er!
