The Hyuga clan's Byakugan always looked the same, but Karin could deactivate hers at will, just like the Rinnegan.
Uchiha Shunichi did not know which of the two was better.
But now that Karin had suddenly awakened the Byakugan, the Giant Tenseigan in his Kamui Dimension could finally be put to use.
"Lord Shunichi, my body feels different!" Karin stared down at her hands in bewilderment.
Compared to before, Karin's body had changed considerably. It was not just her chakra and Byakugan-even her appearance had undergone some subtle changes.
Her skin had improved, and she had grown a little taller. Her hair had turned an even more vivid red, as though reflecting her abundant vitality.
"It's perfectly normal. Don't worry. You'll probably need a few days to adjust to your sudden increase in strength. Once you've gotten used to it, I'll see if I can make you even stronger," Uchiha Shunichi reassured her.
"Lord Shunichi, my eyes..." Karin suddenly remembered her Byakugan. It was the Hyuga clan's exclusive kekkei genkai.
If they discovered that someone else possessed it, they would surely suspect that a Byakugan had been stolen. Even with Uchiha Shunichi as Hokage, the Hyuga clan would not let the matter rest.
"It's fine. Just come with me to visit the Hyuga clan tomorrow. Don't worry about it," Uchiha Shunichi replied.
With something like this, it was better to be upfront than to hide it. The Sage of Six Paths' family affairs had already spread through nearly the entire shinobi world anyway. Few people knew about his brother's family affairs, but those were hardly a big deal either.
If he hid everything out of fear of this or that, then once someone discovered it, he would never be able to explain himself, even with the truth on his side.
