Hyuga Kagami cast a faint glance at the ashen-faced Hyuga Aoki in the corner but said nothing more.
He had already discovered that Hyuga Aoki's crippled real body was hidden in a secret chamber next door, no more than a dozen meters away from this hall.
But for Hyuga Aoki, who had lost the support of the Giant Tenseigan, those dozen meters were an insurmountable chasm.
Hyuga Aoki's spirit body was already too frail to leave the puppet it currently inhabited. The moment it lost the puppet's protection, his spirit body would collapse instantly. And he was now far too weak to move. Unless someone carried his real body before him, even if Hyuga Kagami in the hall did nothing at all, he would not last much longer.
That was also why Hyuga Kagami had not bothered putting on an act or concealing anything before him. Death from the dispersal of one's spirit body differed from ordinary death.
Dying from the dispersal of one's spirit body was the same as having one's spirit body completely broken down by a "Truth-Seeking Orb"—it was utter annihilation. Even a forbidden technique like "Impure World Reincarnation," which twisted the boundary between life and death, could not summon such a person back.
Hyuga Kagami slowly walked up to the Giant Tenseigan. As he gently reached out to touch it, he muttered, "I didn't expect it to be so small..."

That was indeed Hyuga Kagami's first impression upon seeing the Hyuga Clan's Giant Tenseigan.
The Giant Tenseigan in his memory had been modeled after the one belonging to the Ōtsutsuki Clan on the moon. He clearly remembered how, in the original timeline, Naruto and Hinata had leaped high into the air together. Hinata poured her Byakugan chakra into Naruto's Rasengan, and only with destructive power
