"Ōtsutsuki?" Hyuga Hiashi clearly had no idea what the Ōtsutsuki Clan was capable of.
"That's what they call themselves, anyway. Ōtsutsuki was the surname of the Rabbit Goddess and the Sage of Six Paths and his brother. The Sage's two sons, Asura and Indra, didn't use the name, but the descendants of his younger brother always have.
"I imagine the Hyuga Clan used the Ōtsutsuki name too, before our ancestors came down from the moon.

What? Those people shared the same ancestors as them?
Well, the Senju Clan and the
