Chapter Summaries

Kakashi, Obito, and Might Guy watched the Eight-Tails get captured by the Hyūga clan’s puppets, then completed their mission and withdrew with prisoners and supplies. As news of Kumogakure’s destruction reached the Old Era Alliance’s camp, the Third Raikage demanded an immediate attack, leaving Ōnoki weighing a risky gambit.

• The Hyūga clan members used Adamantine Sealing Chains to seal the Eight-Tails and leave Killer B unconscious.
• Kakashi ordered his group to gather prisoners, supplies, and puppet combat data before withdrawing.
• The Ninja Reform Alliance spread news that Kumogakure had been destroyed, causing an uproar in the Old Era Alliance’s camp.
• The Third Raikage rejected the report, while Ōnoki argued that the alliance should spread it as enemy propaganda rather than suppress it.
• The Third Raikage demanded an immediate attack, and Ōnoki considered whether their only option was a risky gambit.

Hyuga Kazuya’s aerial reconnaissance helped Minato Namikaze’s forces ambush and defeat the Old Era Alliance in the Land of River, triggering its collapse across the fronts. Three days later, Minato pressured the captured Daimyos of the remaining four nations to make a decision.

• Hyuga Kazuya reported that the Hyuga Aerospace Reconnaissance Squad had used Personal Intelligent Terminals to track enemy movements and transmit clear photographs, and Minato Namikaze praised their work.
• Minato Namikaze ordered the Ninja Reform Alliance’s shinobi to prepare to counter the Old Era Alliance’s planned risky move.
• Using the reconnaissance reports, the Ninja Reform Alliance ambushed the enemy, eliminated 2,000 elite shinobi, then advanced on and defeated the Old Era Alliance’s main force in the Land of River.
• The Old Era Alliance lost nearly half its elite strength in the Land of River, and its collapse across the battlefronts began.
• Three days later, Minato Namikaze confronted the captured Daimyos of the remaining four nations and asked whether they had made up their minds.

Minato Namikaze secured the unconditional surrender of the four countries’ Daimyo, completing the Ninja Reform Alliance’s victory. The Alliance dismantled the old order, suppressed remaining resistance, and unified the Shinobi World.

• Minato Namikaze promised the Daimyo they could keep part of their wealth if they cooperated, and they surrendered unconditionally.
• Hyuga Kazuya used the Tenseigan to eliminate shinobi who sabotaged the Alliance’s territories, easing the later cleanup.
• The Ninja Reform Alliance reorganized the Four Great Shinobi Villages into military districts and recruited, reformed, or killed their remaining shinobi, including Kage and Jinchuriki.
• The Alliance used Memory Transfer to install trained grassroots officials and replace the old countries’ administrative institutions.
• The Alliance absorbed the small countries that surrendered and crushed those that resisted, bringing the Shinobi World under its rule.

Hyuga Kazuya explained that a giant Byakugan-breeding Octopus might have developed intelligence under the influence of ocular power. Momona became interested in opening a specialized ninja school, and Kazuya agreed she could teach the clan’s ninjutsu.

• Momona showed Hyuga Kazuya her new dress, and he teased her about wearing it in winter.
• Kazuya told Momona that the giant Octopus bred Byakugan and that smaller specimens might have developed souls and intelligence.
• Momona mentioned Obito’s planned mecha school and a Taijutsu school opened by Might Guy, his father, and former Cloud ninjas.
• Kazuya realized Momona was bored and agreed she could open a specialized school and teach the clan’s ninjutsu.
• Momona began to add something else, hesitating over whether to say it.

Hyuga Kazuya reassured Momona that he would support her plan to open a Byakugan School and revealed that he already controlled the Hyuga Clan’s Caged Bird and authority. After suspecting that someone had hidden dissatisfaction within the Ninja Reform Alliance, he turned his attention back to the Solar System defenses he had nearly finished deploying.

• Momona asked Hyuga Kazuya to provide Byakugan transplants so she could open a school for people outside the Hyuga Clan, and he agreed to handle the transplants and Clan arrangements.
• Momona worried about the Hyuga Clan’s response, so Hyuga Kazuya told her that he had controlled the Caged Bird and the Clan for a long time.
• After Momona left to prepare the school, Hyuga Kazuya considered abolishing the Main Family’s authority and suspected someone had concealed Alliance members’ dissatisfaction with the Clan.
• Hyuga Kazuya dismissed the suspected scheme and reviewed his Solar System Defense System, Super-Interstellar Detection System, and Hyperspace Monitoring System, along with the bases, clones, Gundams, and battleships supporting them.

Hyuga Kazuya considered the Octopus's potential intelligence, his plans to research Kekkei Genkai, and the approaching events in the Parallel World. A month later, he announced that Byakugan and Sharingan cloning and transplantation had entered clinical trials and promised to make Kekkei Genkai available for people to choose.

• Hyuga Kazuya reflected on researching Kekkei Genkai, including fusing the Hyuga and Kaguya clans' bloodlines, but decided to focus on clan matters first.
• Hyuga Kazuya considered Kaguya Otsutsuki and looked forward to learning more through his next Enlightenment in the Parallel World.
• Over the following month, the Ninja Reform Alliance's rule and public-benefit policies continued to advance without major changes across the Shinobi World.
• Hyuga Kazuya announced that Byakugan and Sharingan cloning and transplantation had entered the clinical trial stage.
• Hyuga Kazuya said Alliance members would soon be able to choose a Byakugan or Sharingan, and that his institute would work to make other Kekkei Genkai safely available as well.

Hyuga Kazuya’s Byakugan technology and plans for spreading Kekkei Genkai weakened clan resistance and prompted Hiashi to consider the Hyuga Clan’s eventual dissolution. Hiashi also reported on the clan’s growing military forces, which Kazuya judged still had far to go.

• Civilian ninja celebrated the prospect of choosing Kekkei Genkai, while smaller clans accepted that they could not resist the Ninja Reform Alliance’s plans for popularization.
• Hiashi told Hyuga Kazuya that he had explained the changes to the Hyuga Clan, and Kazuya ordered him to end the distinction between the main and branch houses.
• Hiashi said the Hyuga Clan might eventually exist only as a name or disappear as Byakugan transplants created Hyuga clansmen throughout the Shinobi World.
• Hyuga Kazuya explained that clans and village identities would give way to the broader Ninja Reform Alliance as society developed, easing some of Hiashi’s gloom.
• Hiashi reported that the Gundam Legion and Dongfeng Legion had met Kazuya’s requirements, with the Dongfeng Legion’s hundred Jonin now Elite Jonin skilled in archery ninjutsu.
• Hyuga Kazuya praised the legions but said their members still had a long way to go, comparing them to Kakashi, who had already reached Kage-level strength.

Hyuga Kazuya left the Hyuga Clan after warning Hiashi not to become complacent, then returned to his secret laboratory to test a fusion of Shikotsumyaku and Byakugan in a human clone. The clone survived, awakened under Kazuya’s Soul Control, and met the experiment’s standards, leaving Kazuya with a successful prototype for further research.

• Hyuga Kazuya told Hiashi that the Clan’s achievements were insufficient for the coming era, then left the Clan matters in his hands.
• Hyuga Kazuya wondered whether an approaching Enlightenment was making him focus on strength, then went to his laboratory to begin the Shikotsumyaku and Byakugan experiment.
• Hyuga Kazuya introduced purified Shikotsumyaku crystals into a matured Hyuga clone, which endured severe changes before stabilizing.
• Hyuga Kazuya used Tenseigan, Soul Control to awaken the clone and experienced controlling two bodies at once.
• Hyuga Kazuya and the clone tested its body and abilities, confirmed that it met the experiment’s standards, and returned to the laboratory.

Hyuga Kazuya investigated the Shikotsumyaku’s Blood Disease and theorized that its gray substance was linked to the power of All-Killing Ash Bones. He sent a Shikotsumyaku clone to test the theory, while the chapter ended by establishing Kyoto as the Ninja Reform Alliance’s core city and Konoha as a restricted military district.

• Hyuga Kazuya searched the Anbu database for information on Blood Disease and the Shikotsumyaku, then contacted the Kaguya Clan head to obtain the clan’s research records.
• Hyuga Kazuya compared the Kaguya Clan’s records with his experiments and found that using the Shikotsumyaku produced a gray substance that damaged the body as its strength increased.
• Hyuga Kazuya suspected the gray substance was connected to All-Killing Ash Bones and decided to test whether it was the foundation of that power.
• Hyuga Kazuya awakened his Shikotsumyaku clone and sent it out to produce and investigate the gray substance.
• The narration identified Kyoto as the Ninja Reform Alliance’s core city and explained that Konoha and the other ninja villages were designated military districts.

Former Sunagakure Genin Yuzu traveled to Kyoto to explore the Ninja Reform Alliance and pursue further training. After touring the city, she enrolled at Byakugan Academy, where she was promised a free Byakugan transplant the next day.

• Yuzu traveled by train to Kyoto and marveled at the city’s skyscrapers, crowds, and new technology.
• After spending several days sightseeing, Yuzu used her Personal Intelligent Terminal and the Ninja Forum to compare academies and chose Byakugan Academy.
• Yuzu followed the navigation to the remote academy, where dean Hyuga Momona recognized and welcomed her.
• Momona explained that Byakugan Academy gave each student a Byakugan for free and led Yuzu through enrollment.
• Yuzu received her student ID and a hospital form for her transplant the next day, then vowed to make a name for herself.

Hyuga Kazuya and his clone discovered that Shikotsumyaku’s Blood Disease came from a deadly gray substance they could not remove, though avoiding use of the transplanted power could prevent the disease. Kazuya began human experiments with ten Hyuga clan members and left them sealed inside nutrient pods.

• Hyuga Kazuya and his clone confirmed that Shikotsumyaku produced a lethal gray substance that accumulated with use, and they resolved to seek answers from Kaguya in a Parallel World.
• Kazuya and his clone concluded that fusing Hyuga and Kaguya bloodlines could prevent Blood Disease as long as recipients rarely or never used Shikotsumyaku.
• Kazuya decided to begin human experimentation and planned to undergo the transplant himself after enough tests confirmed it was safe.
• Kazuya asked Hiashi to gather ten Hyuga clan members, and Hiashi selected volunteers for the experiment.
• Kazuya brought the ten volunteers to his laboratory and instructed them to enter nutrient pods and close their eyes.

Hyuga Kazuya completed a successful experiment that transplanted the Kaguya Clan's Shikotsumyaku into ten Hyuga Clan members. They discovered major physical and Chakra boosts alongside the new Kekkei Genkai, and Kazuya explained how to limit the risk of its Blood Disease.

• Hyuga Kazuya and his Shadow Clones injected ten sleeping Hyuga Clan members with purified Shikotsumyaku genes and a fusion solution.
• The fusion succeeded, and the participants woke up and followed Kazuya to a training ground to test their bodies.
• The ten ninjas discovered that their physical attributes and Chakra reserves had increased by fifty percent and that they had gained Shikotsumyaku.
• Kazuya warned the participants that using Shikotsumyaku could trigger Blood Disease, then explained that avoiding use or limiting it to brief occasions prevented serious effects.

Hyuga Kazuya had the ten experiment participants train with the Shikotsumyaku so he could measure how its use affected their Blood Disease. When he found Hyuga Xing's readings unusually high, he learned that Xing had used the kekkei genkai to enhance his own body.

• Hyuga Kazuya instructed the ten participants to train with the Shikotsumyaku and explained that early Blood Disease readings would help track their remaining safe usage.
• A few days later, the ten participants demonstrated their progress, and Hyuga Kazuya measured their Blood Disease levels.
• Hyuga Kazuya noticed that Hyuga Xing's reading was 1.5%, far higher than the others, and questioned him about his Shikotsumyaku use.
• Hyuga Xing denied having fought a life-and-death battle and asked Hyuga Kazuya to speak privately.
• In the laboratory, Hyuga Xing confessed that he had used the Shikotsumyaku to form cartilage and insert it into his private parts to make them fuller and stronger.

Hyuga Kazuya learned that Hyuga Xing had created a new ninjutsu by modifying his body, then prepared and underwent a fusion with the Shikotsumyaku. The fusion succeeded, giving Kazuya greater physical strength and bones with nearly limitless potential for increased hardness.

• Hyuga Xing explained that his body modification had succeeded in its goal but left him unable to control his body without chakra, and Hyuga Kazuya told him to document the technique for a Ninja Reform Alliance reward.
• Hyuga Kazuya reviewed the results and concluded that his adjusted Shikotsumyaku was compatible with the Hyuga Clan and could improve its members' physical fitness, chakra reserves, and Kekkei Genkai abilities.
• Hyuga Kazuya used Shadow Clones to prepare a fusion agent and purified Shikotsumyaku bloodline crystals, then entered a nutrient pod for the procedure.
• During the fusion, Hyuga Kazuya suppressed his body's rejection of the Shikotsumyaku genes and made microscopic adjustments to keep the process controlled.
• After several hours, Hyuga Kazuya emerged from the nutrient pod and extended a pale white bone sword from his palm.
• Hyuga Kazuya found that his physical fitness and chakra had increased by about ten percent, and that the Shikotsumyaku gave his bones room to grow harder and his physical strength room to improve further.

Hyuga Kazuya discovered that channeling chakra and Shikotsumyaku power could harden bones, then forged every bone in his body until they became crystal-clear and immensely strong. After several days of training, he reached the peak of the Bone Forging Stage and tested his extraordinary new physical strength.

• Hyuga Kazuya clashed two bone swords and confirmed that Shikotsumyaku power made bones progressively harder.
• Hyuga Kazuya tempered the bones in his right middle finger, turning them transparent and strong enough to pierce a reinforced laboratory wall without chakra.
• Hyuga Kazuya estimated the chakra and Shikotsumyaku energy needed to forge all 206 bones and decided the risk of Blood Disease was acceptable.
• Hyuga Kazuya spent several days forging his bones, then completed the final one and saw that his entire skeleton had become transparent like crystal.
• Hyuga Kazuya discovered that his weight had risen to nearly ten thousand jin, lifted himself from the floor with chakra, and appeared in the mountain forest.

Hyuga Kazuya tested his physical speed and strength, racing at Mach 5 and destroying thousands of meteorites in Saturn’s Rings. While he was away, a masked, silver-haired ninja appeared at the Rōran transit base and was ordered to identify himself.

• Hyuga Kazuya ran at Mach 5 using only his base physical abilities, carving a long trench through the forest before stopping.
• Hyuga Kazuya used the Tenseigan to travel to Saturn’s Rings and test his strength by smashing meteorites with his body and fists.
• Hyuga Kazuya destroyed five thousand meteorites using ninjutsu, Taijutsu, and his base physical abilities, then returned to Earth.
• A silver-haired, masked ninja appeared on the platform at the Rōran Dragon Vein transit base, triggering the defenses.
• The base’s puppets recognized the ninja as an authenticated ally but kept the cannons and puppets on alert, then gave him a form to complete.
• The silver-haired ninja accepted the form and filled in the questions he could answer while remaining wary of the base’s defenses.

Hyuga Kazuya intercepted Kakashi after he arrived at Rōran from a parallel world to seek reinforcements. Kakashi learned that this world was in peacetime after Minato had quickly ended the Third Shinobi World War, and that Obito and Rin were safe.

• Hyuga Kazuya detected an unexpected arrival near Rōran and used his Tenseigan to reach the Dragon Vein base.
• Kakashi arrived at the base seeking reinforcements because Tsunade feared Jiraiya might be in trouble while investigating Amegakure.
• Hyuga Kazuya introduced himself as the parallel-world Hyuga Kazuya, and Kakashi recognized his face but realized he was not the same person as his friend.
• Hyuga Kazuya explained that the current time was the end of Year 47, during the Third Shinobi World War in Kakashi's world.
• Kakashi asked about Obito and Rin, and Hyuga Kazuya told him they were safe and that Minato had already ended the war.

Hyuga Kazuya brought Minato Namikaze to meet Kakashi from World Two and hear about the threat to Jiraiya. Minato decided he could not leave his duties in World One, so Kazuya agreed to go alone, leaving Kakashi doubtful of his strength.

• Hyuga Kazuya cleared Kakashi's identity at the transit base, then brought Minato Namikaze from Konoha to Rōran.
• Kakashi and Minato greeted each other and Kakashi explained that a powerful organization targeting the Tailed Beasts might be based in the Land of Rain, where Jiraiya was investigating.
• Hyuga Kazuya urged them to leave immediately, but Minato hesitated because he could not abandon his responsibilities as leader of the Ninja Reform Alliance.
• Minato decided to stay in World One and entrusted the rescue mission to Hyuga Kazuya, who agreed to go alone.
• Kakashi questioned whether the teenage Hyuga Kazuya was truly stronger than Minato.

Kazuya and Kakashi traveled through the Dragon Vein to Parallel World Two, while Kazuya glimpsed countless worlds and reflected on how they diverged. They arrived together beneath the Rōran Ruins, where Kazuya began puzzling over why their separate entries into the Dragon Vein had synchronized their arrival.

• Kazuya released the Dragon Vein’s seal and entered it with Kakashi after saying goodbye to Minato Namikaze.
• During the crossing, Kazuya used the Tenseigan to see countless Parallel Worlds, including worlds with a God Tree, a nuclear war, and a shattered Earth.
• Kazuya reasoned that worlds farther apart were less similar, but chose to head to Parallel World Two to answer Kakashi’s plea for help.
• Kakashi and Kazuya appeared together beneath the ruined Rōran Ruins, and Kakashi asked whether they should return to Konoha or go to the Land of Rain.
• Kazuya wondered why he and Kakashi arrived at the same time despite entering the Dragon Vein separately, and considered whether its distorted space had joined their timelines.

Hyuga Kazuya transported Kakashi to Amegakure, where Jiraiya was gathering intelligence in a tavern under the enemy’s surveillance. After explaining that the mysterious organization was powerful and had already discovered Jiraiya, Kazuya stopped Kakashi from rushing to warn him.

• Hyuga Kazuya revealed his overwhelming power, sealed away the Dragon Vein, and used his Tenseigan to locate Jiraiya in Amegakure.
• Hyuga Kazuya teleported himself and Kakashi thousands of kilometers to a guest room above the tavern where Jiraiya was drinking undercover.
• Kakashi verified that they were in the rain-soaked Land of Rain and marveled at Kazuya’s instantaneous long-distance teleportation.
• Hyuga Kazuya explained that chakra in Amegakure’s rain let the enemy surveil the village and that Jiraiya had already been discovered.
• Kakashi moved to warn Jiraiya, but Hyuga Kazuya grabbed him and told him not to rush.
