Chapter Summaries

Hyuga Kazuya battled Karatachi Yagura, who transformed into the Three-Tails, and used his enhanced speed and strength to overwhelm him. After evading Yagura’s Tailed Beast Ball, Kazuya launched a Sage Art: Wind Style: Super Tailed Beast Rasenshuriken, leaving its impact unresolved.

• Hyuga Kazuya used the Flying Thunder God Technique to evade Karatachi Yagura’s attacks, but Yagura’s Water Dragon Bullet struck him with a surprise tail whip.
• Hyuga Kazuya healed his minor injuries and activated Lightning Style Chakra Mode, Sage Mode, and the Fifth Gate, while Karatachi Yagura assumed complete Tailed Beast Transformation.
• Hyuga Kazuya pierced the Three-Tails and assessed its rapid chakra recovery, then attacked repeatedly and battered its body with Morning Peacock.
• Karatachi Yagura fired a Tailed Beast Ball, but Hyuga Kazuya dodged it and attacked from behind with Sage Art: Wind Style: Super Tailed Beast Rasenshuriken.

Hyuga Kazuya killed Karatachi Yagura and helped Danzo impersonate him so Danzo could take control of Kirigakure. As Danzo returned to the village and the battle damage intimidated rival clans, Hyuga Kazuya began investigating whether Kaguya Clan blood could combine with Hyuga blood to produce an Otsutsuki bloodline.

• Hyuga Kazuya kept up a display of battle while Danzo and a Yamanaka Clan Root ninja extracted Karatachi Yagura's memories.
• Danzo transformed into Karatachi Yagura, and Hyuga Kazuya covered the Root ninja's retreat as Kirigakure reinforcements arrived.
• Kirigakure ninja found the devastated battlefield, rescued Danzo disguised as Karatachi Yagura, and escorted him back to the village with Root ninja posing as Anbu.
• Kaguya Daiki and Ran Shotaro postponed their plans after seeing the battlefield, while other Kirigakure clan members also examined the damage.
• Hyuga Kazuya inspected stolen Kaguya Clan blood and planned experiments to test whether combining Kaguya and Hyuga bloodlines could create an Otsutsuki bloodline.

Hyuga Kazuya waited in Kirigakure for Madara Uchiha to investigate the Mizukage’s deaths, but Madara instead chose to focus on Minato Namikaze while Danzo consolidated control of the village. Kazuya left with Kirigakure’s Kekkei Genkai samples and later met Minato’s team in Konoha, where the two quietly confirmed their Flying Thunder God link remained functional.

• Hyuga Kazuya searched Kirigakure for Madara Uchiha, while Madara learned that his White Zetsu spawns and the Mizukage and his successor had died, then ordered White Zetsu to move quickly on Minato Namikaze.
• Hyuga Kazuya waited several days without seeing Madara, as Danzo used alliances and concessions to stabilize Kirigakure and arrange to become its Fourth Mizukage.
• Hyuga Kazuya obtained Kirigakure’s stored cells and blood from its Kekkei Genkai clans, left a clone with Danzo, and sent Moon Squad back to Konoha.
• Hyuga Kazuya and Momona ate at the Tailed Beast BBQ Shop, then caught up with Minato Namikaze’s team as they prepared to leave on an A-rank escort mission.
• Minato Namikaze and Hyuga Kazuya secretly exchanged their agreed gesture to confirm that their Flying Thunder God link was working.

Hyuga Kazuya organized his research priorities while Minato Namikaze escorted Steward Bai and his party across the Land of Fire. The mission proved to be a trap set by White Zetsu, and Minato's squad faced ten White Zetsu clones.

• Hyuga Kazuya sealed the Kekkei Genkai collected from Kirigakure and planned to focus on Byakugan research before other studies.
• Minato Namikaze's squad met Steward Bai at the coast and escorted him and nine companions inland.
• Minato caught Steward Bai releasing a carrier pigeon, read its letter, then returned it without suspecting the mission was a trap.
• White Zetsu received the letter, learned Minato Namikaze had taken the mission, and went to notify Madara Uchiha.
• Steward Bai and his companions transformed into White Zetsu clones and attacked Minato Namikaze, Kakashi, Obito, and Rin Nohara.

Minato Namikaze and his team were trapped by a spatial barrier and attacked with Wood Release: Deep Forest Emergence. Minato sent Kakashi, Obito, and Rin Nohara through a spatial passage and activated Hyuga Kazuya’s Flying Thunder God Kunai before staying behind; Kazuya sensed the signal and headed to Minato’s location.

• White Zetsu No. 1 revealed that the ambush had lured Minato into a barrier that blocked spatial jumps and sent a message to Madara Uchiha.
• Minato failed to use the Flying Thunder God Technique, ordered Kakashi to restrain the white creatures, then recognized the hidden danger and led his team away.
• An unidentified attacker used Wood Release: Deep Forest Emergence, forcing Minato, Kakashi, Obito, and Rin to fight through rapidly growing trees.
• As the team’s chakra ran low, Minato opened a spatial passage with maximum effort and sent Kakashi, Obito, and Rin through it.
• Minato activated Hyuga Kazuya’s Flying Thunder God Kunai through the barrier’s opening, and Kazuya sensed it in the Root Research Lab and teleported toward Minato’s location.

Hyuga Kazuya rescued Minato Namikaze from Madara Uchiha’s Wood Release forest and confronted Madara after revealing that he knew his identity and secrets. The chapter ended as Kazuya charged and Madara summoned Complete Body Susanoo to defend himself.

• Hyuga Kazuya used the Flying Thunder God Technique to send Kakashi’s group away from the forest and returned alone, combining Lightning Style Chakra Mode, the Fifth Gate, and Sage Mode.

• Hyuga Kazuya confronted Madara Uchiha, admitted killing the White Zetsu in Konoha, and revealed that he knew Madara’s identity and secrets.
• Hyuga Kazuya charged at Madara Uchiha, who summoned Complete Body Susanoo and crossed its twin swords to block the attack.

Hyuga Kazuya and Madara Uchiha clashed with their full strength, and Kazuya summoned Sage Art Tiga to match Madara’s Complete Body Susanoo. Madara then used Planetary Devastation to trap Kazuya, whose Flying Thunder God Technique failed inside its sealing field as a massive sphere of rubble formed around him.

• Hyuga Kazuya opened the Sixth Gate and struck Madara Uchiha’s Susanoo with Day Tiger, countering Madara’s Yasakani no Magatama.
• Madara charged Kazuya with Susanoo and its swords, so Kazuya summoned a hundred-meter Sage Art Tiga to fight the giant head-on.
• Madara recognized that ordinary attacks would not defeat Kazuya and unleashed Planetary Devastation, sending a black gravitational core into the sky.
• Kazuya dispelled Tiga and tried to escape the core’s pull, but Madara moved the core after him and expanded its range.
• Kazuya’s Flying Thunder God Technique failed under Planetary Devastation’s sealing power, and he tried to flee on foot as a huge sphere of earth and rock formed around him.

Hyuga Kazuya defeated Madara Uchiha by destroying his Planetary Devastation and piercing him with the Divine Spear. Afterward, Kazuya confronted Black Zetsu, revealed that he knew about Kaguya, and offered to help him if he worked for him.

• Hyuga Kazuya escaped Madara Uchiha's Planetary Devastation by cutting through the giant meteorite with his golden sword.

• Kazuya reunited with Minato, Kakashi, Obito, and Rin, confirmed that the enemy was dead, and urged them to keep training.
• Kazuya privately told Minato that the attacker was Madara Uchiha, who had survived by using a secret technique.
• Kazuya showed Minato Madara’s Rinnegan and explained its power and the danger of using it.
• Kazuya offered to teach Minato a Sage Mode without side effects and showed him a scroll marked as Kazuya’s modified version.

Hyuga Kazuya returned to Konoha after defeating Madara Uchiha and prepared for the threat from the moon, preserving Madara’s corpse and transplanting his Rinnegan into the Octopus. He left the Octopus sealed in its tank, where a trace of confusion appeared in its eyes, then arranged a welcome-back banquet for Minato’s Squad.

• Minato Namikaze told Kakashi, Obito, and Rin Nohara to keep the attack and Hyuga Kazuya’s rescue secret before the squad rested and planned to return to Konoha.
• Hyuga Kazuya returned to Root’s research facility and resolved to deal with the moon’s threat after the battle’s Tenseigan Chakra Mode drew its attention.
• Hyuga Kazuya preserved Madara Uchiha’s corpse in a sealed tank and decided to use the Octopus to maintain the Rinnegan.
• Hyuga Kazuya transplanted the Rinnegan into the Octopus, sealed its cultivation tank, and left after seeing no immediate abnormalities.
• After Hyuga Kazuya departed, a trace of confusion appeared in the Octopus’s eyes, and Hyuga Kazuya later reserved a welcome-back banquet for Minato’s Squad.

The lunar Otsutsuki Elder discovered that Hyuga Kazuya had manifested a Great Tenseigan on Earth, but witnessing Kazuya’s overwhelming power made him fear an attack instead of planning one. At Orochimaru’s base, Kazuya examined the new Chakra Cube and learned its poor capacity and high cost, while Orochimaru realized how vast Kazuya’s chakra reserves were.

• The lunar Otsutsuki Elder sensed the Earth Great Tenseigan and recalled that his clan hoped to devour it, break the Caged Bird Seal, and strengthen their own Great Tenseigan.
• The Elder saw Kazuya’s Golden Sword Slash destroy a meteorite and the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, then noticed Kazuya looking toward the moon and summoned the clan’s leaders to prepare.
• Orochimaru showed Kazuya the Chakra Cube, a device made from powdered Chakra Metal and seals to store chakra, and explained that it was his preliminary result for chakra-powered machinery.
• Kazuya questioned Orochimaru’s missing performance data until Orochimaru admitted that a palm-sized cube cost 500,000 ryo and stored only 0.5 Ka of chakra.
• Kazuya explained his chakra measurement unit, estimated Orochimaru at 7 to 10 Ka, and told him he had more than four times as much chakra, leaving Orochimaru reconsidering whether he could ever match him.

Hyuga Kazuya pressed Orochimaru to develop chakra-powered engines for a moon mission, and the two divided work on improving the Chakra Cube. After discovering that a Gelel Stone could serve as a powerful battery, Kazuya began upgrading the cube’s sealing technique and later went to welcome Minato’s squad back to Konoha.

• Hyuga Kazuya told Orochimaru that the Chakra Cube stored too little energy and ordered him to prioritize finding suitable materials for a chakra-powered engine.
• Hyuga Kazuya revealed that he intended to reach the moon, while Orochimaru agreed to investigate materials and Kazuya took responsibility for improving the cube’s sealing technique.
• Hyuga Kazuya brought Orochimaru a Gelel Stone, whose energy storage amazed him, and they agreed to test it as a battery material while Root searched for its mineral vein.
• Hyuga Kazuya returned to Root’s laboratory and worked through the night and following day on a new sealing technique, forming a clear improvement plan.
• Hyuga Kazuya left to welcome Minato Namikaze’s squad after they returned to Konoha and reported to the Hokage Building.

Hyuga Kazuya explored Yin-Yang Release while improving the Chakra Cube’s sealing formula, eventually raising its storage capacity to ten cards. He learned that Orochimaru’s Gelel Stone research had produced promising Chakra Cubes but that the stone could subtly mutate living beings, and he set out to find more Gelel Stone as he continued preparing for the threat from the Moon.

• Hyuga Kazuya developed a Yang Release technique that enlarged his body and increased his strength, then theorized that combining Yin and Yang Release could create life.
• Hyuga Kazuya reviewed Black Zetsu’s gathered materials on Yin-Yang Release and secret clan techniques, but chose to prioritize the Moon threat and Chakra Cube research.
• Hyuga Kazuya completed an improved sealing formula that gave the Chakra Cube a ten-card energy capacity and recorded its details.
• Hyuga Kazuya visited Orochimaru, who reported that Gelel Stone Chakra Cubes stored around four cards with the old sealing formula and outperformed Chakra Metal.
• Orochimaru warned that Gelel Stone Chakra Cubes could subtly influence living beings, and Hyuga Kazuya said he would address the mutation and find more Gelel Stone.

Hyuga Kazuya used Root’s circus investigation to search for the Gelel Stone, destroyed a Cult stronghold he found in the Land of Hot Springs, and eventually located a circus with a Snow Ferret in the Land of River. He landed in front of the circus, leaving its people and animals in chaos as he prepared to approach the old ringmaster.

• Hyuga Kazuya checked Root’s records, learned that two squads were searching circuses for Gelel Stone clues, and flew to the Land of Hot Springs.
• Hyuga Kazuya found one Root squad, collected its circus information, and continued the search on his own.
• While investigating circuses, Hyuga Kazuya discovered a Cult headquarters hidden inside a mountain and destroyed it with repeated attacks, killing the Cultists who survived the collapse.
• After scouting 123 circuses across the Shinobi World, Hyuga Kazuya found a millennium-old Snow Ferret in a circus in the Land of River and identified the old man traveling beside it as his target.
• Hyuga Kazuya dropped from the sky and landed in front of the circus, startling the animals and throwing the workers into confusion.

Hyuga Kazuya found the sealed Gelel Stone vein in the Bie Shan Mountain Range, deciphered its seal, and prepared the ruins for mining. With Anrokuzan and his Mining Puppets at the site, he asked how they were powered.

• Hyuga Kazuya used the Spirit Ball on He Yan to learn that the Gelel Stone ruins lay in the Bie Shan Mountain Range.
• Hyuga Kazuya flew to the Land of Wind, located the ruins with his Byakugan, and detected the vast Gelel Stone vein beneath them.
• Hyuga Kazuya entered the ruins, examined their murals, and studied the Ancient Empire's seal around the vein.
• Hyuga Kazuya deciphered the seal, built a barrier around the ruins, and had a clone bring Anrokuzan and several Mining Puppets from Rōran.
• Hyuga Kazuya asked Anrokuzan how the Mining Puppets were supplied with energy.

Hyuga Kazuya and Anrokuzan uncovered a Gelel Stone mine and began extracting ore to power puppets and produce Chakra Cubes. Kazuya brought several hundred unrefined stones to Orochimaru’s laboratory, where preliminary tests showed they could be used directly, and he prepared to demonstrate his new Sealing Jutsu.

• Hyuga Kazuya released the seal on the Gelel Stone vein and ordered Anrokuzan to mine the ore.
• Anrokuzan adapted the mined Gelel Stone to power the mining puppets, and hundreds of cubic stones were extracted over several hours.
• Hyuga Kazuya ordered Anrokuzan to mine one hundred thousand stones and secure the ruins, then left with several hundred pieces.
• Hyuga Kazuya delivered the unrefined Gelel Stones to Orochimaru, and they made and tested a Chakra Cube that showed little difference from one made with refined stone.
• Hyuga Kazuya asked Orochimaru to make another Chakra Cube using his new Sealing Jutsu, promising that its results would exceed expectations.

Hyuga Kazuya and Orochimaru created a new Chakra Cube with a capacity of 50 Ka and mass-produced 345 of them. Kazuya took the cubes to Rōran to charge them with Dragon Vein energy, then brought Tetsu, Ibaro, and Kamon back to the village after pausing their risky training.

• Hyuga Kazuya and Orochimaru tested their new Chakra Cube, confirmed it could store 50 Ka, and made 345 cubes together.
• Orochimaru kept some Gelel Stone for his own research, while Hyuga Kazuya took the finished cubes and left the laboratory.
• Hyuga Kazuya arrived at Rōran, found that Tetsu, Ibaro, and Kamon had lost less vitality than expected, and told them to stop refining Dragon Vein energy for a while.
• Hyuga Kazuya placed the 345 Chakra Cubes in a guiding barrier so the Dragon Vein could charge them, estimating the process would take about ten days.
• Hyuga Kazuya prepared a cover story and seals for the three children, then escorted them back to the village and spoke with their parents about their progress.

Hyuga Kazuya visited the Moon Landing Company to assess its technology and discovered that the Land of Artisans had developed rockets and chakra-powered 3D printing. After reviewing the printing system’s capabilities, he saw a way to manufacture the components needed for his own plans.

• Hyuga Kazuya left the village and flew to the Moon Landing Company in the Land of Artisans.
• Hyuga Kazuya met Kosaka Isami, inspected the Type-003 Rocket, and renamed it a rocket instead of a Flying Arrow.
• Kosaka Isami showed Hyuga Kazuya the 3D Printing machine, which used wandering shinobi’s chakra to shape liquid materials.
• Hyuga Kazuya read the technical documents and learned that printing precision depended on the operator’s chakra control.
• Hyuga Kazuya realized the 3D Printing Center could solve the challenge of manufacturing the components he needed.

Hyuga Kazuya scrapped Kosaka Isami’s Type-003 Rocket and helped design a vastly more powerful Type-003 Space-Air Plane. He left the project to return to Konoha after sensing that Octopus’s Byakugan had matured, and the chapter ended as Octopus opened hundreds of eyes inside its cultivation tank.

• Hyuga Kazuya decided to use Sealing Jutsu, an energy shield, a Chakra Cube, and the 3D printing center to build a rocket for his trip to the moon.
• Hyuga Kazuya ordered Kosaka Isami to scrap the Type-003 Rocket and rebuild it to meet his requirements.
• Hyuga Kazuya, Kosaka Isami, and several technicians designed the Type-003 Space-Air Plane, which could cruise at Mach 20 in the atmosphere and potentially approach the speed of light in space.
• Hyuga Kazuya left a clone to help with construction and flew to Konoha after sensing that the Byakugan in Octopus was about to mature.
• Hyuga Kazuya sensed that Octopus’s vitality had increased several times, knocked on its cultivation tank, and watched its hundreds of eyes snap open.

Hyuga Kazuya discovered that his Byakugan absorbed the ocular power of cloned Byakugan, strengthening his eyes and potentially bringing them closer to evolving into a Tenseigan. After harvesting 200 eyes from the Octopus, he absorbed them one by one, but the first 154 produced no evolution.

• The Octopus opened all its eyes and hit Hyuga Kazuya with a powerful mental shock, but he recovered and examined its glowing Byakugan and Rinnegan.
• Hyuga Kazuya removed one Byakugan from the Octopus and discovered that his own eyes passively absorbed its ocular power until the harvested eye withered into dust.
• He removed the Octopus’s remaining 199 Byakugan and found that bringing a cloned eye near his forehead greatly accelerated its absorption.
• Hyuga Kazuya absorbed the cloned Byakugan in succession, and his own eyes grew stronger and gained a faint bluish glow.
• After absorbing 154 eyes without evolving, Hyuga Kazuya began absorbing the 155th and resolved to grow more eyes if the remaining ones were insufficient.
