The Byakugan's x-ray vision and wide field of view made it an excellent tool for tracking down the Sharingan.
Ordinary sealing barriers could not block the Byakugan's scrutiny.
Only sealed storage containers covered in sealing formulas, sealed stone walls, and sealing barriers could possibly disrupt spatial chakra and obstruct the Byakugan's vision.
Seals of that level were usually found only in the core treasure vaults of major ninja villages.
Although Kumogakure's workshop forging area was protected by a sealing barrier, it clearly could not stop an elite Jonin-level Byakugan.
The veins around Hyuga Ichiro's eyes bulged as he drove the Byakugan at full power.

Hearing this, Shisui turned to Kazuhiko and asked, "Should we infiltrate and take a look?"
"The destruction
