"To reshuffle the Shinobi World?"

Is this the kind of shuffling I'm thinking of?

The Hyuga clan members were shocked.

Hyuga Hiashi frowned. "What exactly was our ancestor's long-cherished wish?"

Otsutsuki Toneri stared Hiashi at Hiashi.

Although it has no eyes, it seems as if it can see, staring at Hyuga Hiashi.

"Our ancestor's long-cherished wish was for us, the members of the Main Family, to keep a close watch on the Shinobi World created by our ancestor's Hagoromo Otsutsuki, and not to stray from it."

"The current Ninja World War Shinobi World is riddled with problems due to frequent wars. To restore it to its original state, it must be reborn from the ashes, reshuffled, and the existing Shinobi World Shinobi World destroyed and rebuilt to save it."

"..."

Hyuga Hiashi.

"War is frequent, but the Shinobi World is not without its peaceful periods. Wars eventually come to an end, and the Shinobi World was born in this environment."

"In peacetime..."

"I've been observing the Shinobi World for a long time. I've given them many chances— the First Shinobi World War, the Second Shinobi World War, the Third Shinobi World War..."

At this point, Toneri paused, then continued, "And now, the Fourth Great Ninja War is about to break out. I can foresee that, so all I need to do is prevent the Fifth Ninja World War from happening."

"If I start the Fourth Great Ninja War, and I end it, then there will never be a Fifth Shinobi World Ninja World War."

He slowly explained his planned approach.

Upon hearing Hyuga Hiashi, Hiashi and the others gasped in shock.

The other person described it casually, as if they could really do it so easily.

However, what the other party said was not entirely unreasonable.

Throughout the history of the Shinobi World, whether before or after the establishment of Shinobi World villages, wars have been constant and have never truly ceased.

Everyone knows this, and the current era of peace is a facade.

In recent years, Konoha alone has been plagued by frequent incidents, not to mention the frictions between smaller countries.

It felt like a war every single day.

If you don't annex other small countries, those small countries will become powerful after annexing others, and then they will come and annex you.

The Five Great Nations have developed to the point that annexing smaller countries would not have a significant impact; their relationship is more about mutual checks and balances.

The conditions for imbalance have now emerged.

The destruction of Cloud Village and the emergence of the First Tsuchikage foreshadowed the imminent collapse of the balance of power among the Five Great Nations.

After a long period of contemplation, Hyuga Hiashi raised his eyes and asked, "How can you guarantee that all wars will end after this one?"

"Therefore, I need to cooperate with you," Otsutsuki Toneri extended his right hand, "Head of the Hyuga Clan, hand over your eyes to me, and I will have a way to reshuffle the Shinobi World this time."

Hyuga Hiashi was immediately startled.

"You want my Byakugan? You want to awaken the legendary highest level Byakugan — the Tenseigan?!"

"Tenseigan? Clan Head Lord, what is that?"

Hyuga Kō asked in confusion.

Not only him, but none of the Hyuga clan members present had ever heard of the Byakugan being able to level up!

"That's something recorded on the ancestral Stone Tablet..."

Hyuga Hiashi's expression was grave.

Besides recording the origins of the Hyuga Clan, the most important thing on the Stone Tablet is the Tenseigan.

However, the conditions required to Tenseigan are extremely demanding.

It requires Byakugan of very high purity, plus the bloodline of the Otsutsuki Hamura clan, to be able to activate.

That is, the bloodline of the Main Family on the moon.

Only their bloodline might produce someone who carries Hamura's bloodline at the moment of birth.

Otsutsuki Toneri was that one in ten thousand.

However, while possessing the power of this bloodline, he was also born blind.

The strongest is also the weakest.

But it is precisely because of his innate Hamura bloodline that he is able to wield the Giant Tenseigan.

Years ago, two different interpretations of the ancestor Hamura's long-cherished wish arose on the moon, causing the Main Family to split into two factions.

Finally, one group combined all the Byakugan to form a giant yellow Tenseigan, defeating the other force in one fell swoop. From then on, only the Main Family, adhering to Hamura's long-cherished wish, remained on the moon.

The enormous Golden Tenseigan was also left behind.

Not only does it possess immense power, but it can also create Puppet Army and even traverse time and space to spy on the Shinobi World in real time.

"If it's the power of the Tenseigan, perhaps it really could be done..."

Hyuga Hiashi murmured softly.

If it is truly as recorded on the Stone Tablet, that those who possess the Tenseigan have the power to destroy everything in the All-creation, then ending the war in the Shinobi World is not entirely impossible.

"How?"

"We are all of the same kind, and it is our duty to fulfill the long-cherished wish of our ancestors."

"I am not flustered," said Otsutsuki Toneri calmly.

The main reason was that he knew Kanami and the others weren't in the village.

From the moment Kanami, Hinata, and the others left the village, he began to think of other countermeasures.

It was after observing the purity of Hyuga Hiashi's Byakugan that he chose to come to Konoha Village.

Although Hyuga Hiashi's Byakugan purity is definitely not as high as that of Hanabi Hyuga or Hinata Hyuga, as long as he can generate the Tenseigan, it will be enough for him.

Hyuga Hiashi placed his hand over his eyes.

"Clan Head Lord, what's wrong with you! You can't let him bewitch you!"

Seeing this, Hyuga Kō shouted anxiously.

At the same time, he hurriedly channeled his Chakra into his eyes.

"Byakugan... Open!"

As the veins near his temples bulged, his Byakugan (Byakugan eye) actually broke through the high pressure in his blood vessels and forcibly activated.

Otsutsuki Toneri glanced at him and said, "My premonition was right. You're not bad either. If these eyes fail, we can use yours to try and awaken the Tenseigan."

Hearing Hyuga Kō's reminder, Hyuga Hiashi finally realized what was happening.

He had always been proud of the Hyuga Clan, but today he had so easily abandoned the glory of the Hyuga Clan and chosen to bow down to the so-called Main Family that had suddenly appeared.

"How ridiculous! I'm so ridiculous!"

He shook his head and chuckled softly.

Upon seeing this, the Toneri realized something.

"What, are you going to back out now?"

When did I agree to that?

Hyuga Hiashi retorted, frowning.

"Cooperation is possible, but it will be you cooperating with us, not the other way around."

"What's the meaning?"

Otsutsuki Toneri countered with a question.

Hyuga Hiashi chuckled, "Of course. You've given us the power of your ancestors' bloodline, and you've also said that Hyuga Kō's eyes meet the criteria. So, if you cooperate with us, we might both possess the Tenseigan."

"Wouldn't it be easier to fulfill our ancestors' long-cherished wish with two Tenseigan?"

Otsutsuki Toneri was silent for a few seconds, then shook his head. "Impossible."

"Give me your eyes."
