When Uchiha Hikari moves his muscles.
Nara Residence, the afternoon sun shines lazily in Courtyard.
Shikamaru was enjoying a period of leisure that had no official documents, no urgent meetings, and no "too much trouble" before his career. He lay in the room, looked out the window, looked at the changing clouds in the sky, and enjoyed the vacation granted to him by Naruto.
Suddenly, a strong and overbearing Chakra wave that seemed to be able to pierce the sky suddenly erupted from the direction of the Hyuga Clan's station!
Shikamaru almost bounced off the floor, and his originally lazy eyes instantly became sharp.
He opened the door suddenly, and his figure appeared in Courtyard in a flash, his eyes fixed on the direction of Hyuga Clan Compound.
Although that wave of Chakra only passed by in a flash, its texture and intensity were definitely beyond what ordinary Ninja could possess, and it even had a vague sense of unfamiliar and palpitating oppression.
"What happened?"
Shikamaru frowned and murmured to himself in a low voice. Hyuga Clan has always been known for the Main Family Branch Family's strict system, and internal affairs of the clan rarely make such a big fuss.
This level of Chakra broke out. Could it be that it was invaded by a powerful enemy?
Or is there something unexpected happening within the clan?
Almost at the same time, the sliding door of the next room was violently opened.
Shikaku Nara, this Acting Hokage, who was appointed by Sixth Hokage Naruto Uzumaki before leaving and had just taken office a few days ago, had messy hair, sleepy eyes but his eyes were awake, and his face was obviously ugly.
He finally finished dealing with the mountain of documents today and took some time to catch up on a nap. However, not long after he lay down, he was awakened by the sudden Chakra fluctuation.
For a Acting Hokage who needs to stay calm and energetic at all times to handle government affairs, there is nothing more annoying than having precious sleep interrupted.
"What's going on?"
Shikaku's voice was hoarse as if he had just woken up, but more of it was the displeasure of being disturbed and the vigilance of veteran Ninja.
He also looked in the direction of Hyuga Clan Compound, his brows knitted into knots.
"What is Hyuga Clan doing over there? This Chakra doesn't look like ordinary sparring or training."
Not only Shikamaru and his son, but also Ninja within Konoha whose Sensing abilities reached a certain level, were more or less aware of the abnormality in the direction of Hyuga Clan Compound at this moment.
It is daytime now, and the village's defense Barrier is in normal operation. Such an sudden and strong Chakra outbreak is like a bright light in the dark, and it is difficult not to attract attention.
The ANBU team on duty responded quickly, and several black shadows silently flew towards Hyuga Residence.
The patriarchs and Jonins of each family also walked out of their homes or Office one after another, all looking in the direction of the Hyuga Clan.
In the calm Konoha afternoon, there was a trace of nervousness due to this sudden change.
Hyuga Clan Compound.
Sasuke Uchiha expressionlessly put the Kusanagi Sword that Orochimaru had just given him in his hand into the sheath slowly, his movements smooth and indifferent, as if he had just done a trivial thing.
The friction between the sword blade and the scabbard made a slight "chicken" sound, which was particularly clear in the silence of Courtyard.
Not far from his feet, a Ninja wearing Hyuga Branch Family clothes lay on his back, his eyes wide open, and there was still unbelievable horror and a trace of fanaticism on his face.
The veins on his forehead popped out, and the meridians around the white eyes protruded, but deep in the pupils, there seemed to be a strange pale golden light that was different from the ordinary white eyes.
This person had obvious trauma on his body, his breath was weak, and he had obviously lost consciousness.
Sasuke didn't even look at the person on the ground, as if it was just a piece of useless garbage.
After he sheathed his sword, he turned around and walked towards Corridor outside Secret Chamber. The black figure quickly disappeared around the corner, leaving only a place of solemnity and silence.
Sasuke didn't even look at Hyuga Hiashi, who had a solemn face on the side, or a feminine woman beside him, wearing white Kimono and Long Hair shawls.
Orochimaru Golden Snake Eyes looked at the unconscious Branch Family Ninja on the ground with great interest, then looked at the direction Sasuke was leaving, and finally turned his attention to Hiashi, who had an ugly face, and a meaningful and slightly playful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Haha..."
Orochimaru's voice has a unique hoarse magnetism, but his tone seems quite relaxed.
"Once a person suddenly gains power far beyond his control, his mind will easily become unbalanced, become arrogant, arrogant, and even breed undue ambition..."
This is human nature and is not surprising. Why should Clan Leader Hiashi sigh like this?"
Hiashi Hearing this, his brows were full of exhaustion and fear.
He looked at the unconscious Branch Family member on the ground with complicated eyes.
According to the plan agreed in advance with Sixth Naruto, in order to study the mystery and controllability of "Tenseigan".
Hiashi carefully selected Ninja from the Branch Family, who is usually calm and talented, and is going to try to inject Chakra, the part of Hamura Otsutsuki left by Naruto that was sealed in the cyan gourd.
Naruto told him that by combining the pure Byakugan of the Hyuga Clan with the Chakra of Hamura, there might be a chance to induce "Tenseigan".
Although Hiashi felt that the risk was not small, considering Naruto's strength and vision, as well as the potential benefits of this matter to the Hyuga Clan's future, he finally agreed to try and invited Orochimaru, who has the most research in this area, to assist and observe.
However, they still underestimated the impact of suddenly gaining great power on people's hearts.
Just now, when the Byakugan evolution of Ninja was completed, a drastic change occurred. A faint Golden light emerged from the depths of his pupils, and a huge and unfamiliar Chakra erupted.
But then, instead of the expected stable evolution or power control, ecstasy, greed and murderous intent suddenly burst out in the eyes of that Ninja!
And the target is him, the patriarch.
The power of "Pseudo-Tenseigan" that had just been turned on and was not yet stable gave him the illusion that he could instantly surpass Main Family and even control Hyuga Clan.
He actually targeted Hyuga Hiashi, the patriarch of the clan, who was just around the corner as soon as he awakened his power!
If Hiashi hadn't been prepared, he would have invited Orochimaru and Sasuke Uchiha on Orochimaru's side to the scene in advance.
If Caged Bird Seal's mark Hiashi hadn't been lifted when Neji was about to become the clan leader, he might have been in trouble.
Caged Bird Seal itself was passed down from the annihilated Main Family of the Moon lineage before it was completely destroyed. However, what Hiashi didn't expect was that the Branch Family in front of him would not have the same effect as before when he activated Caged Bird Seal.
Hiashi looked at the unconscious tribesmen on the ground, feeling frightened in his heart.
He was not only afraid that he was almost attacked, but also felt deeply worried about the uncontrollability of this force and the internal tearing and disaster it might bring to the Hyuga Clan.
The Ancestors Chakra left behind by Naruto... indeed contains unimaginable power, and also comes with huge risks.
"Lord Orochimaru said..."
Hiashi has a deep voice.
"I just didn't expect that the most honest person would become so strange in the face of power."
He paused and looked at Orochimaru, "The next step is up to you.
It is important to clarify whether this is a special case or... inevitable."
Orochimaru licked his lips, Golden Snake Eyes's face shone with excitement and exploration. "Of course, Clan Leader Hiashi. With such an interesting sample, I will naturally 'research' it carefully."
But..." He changed the topic and looked in the direction where Sasuke disappeared, "Sasuke-kun, your attack was really clean and neat.
It seems that Master Sixth told me before that if Tenseigan matures, he must take Sasuke with him. It was not an unintentional move."
Hiashi is silent.
Of course he understands that the appearance of Sasuke is no accident.
This is Naruto's protection against the Hyuga Clan and Konoha.
With Caged Bird Seal interrupting this Branch Family member using a strange technique, Sasuke seized the opportunity and knocked him out directly.
That technique was too dangerous. Blue Light soared to the sky, making Hiashi shudder. If he hadn't interrupted it in time, Konoha would have suffered heavy losses from that move.
He looked outside Hyuga Clan Compound again, and could feel the surprised and suspicious glances from all over the village.
The Chakra outbreak just now has probably caused quite a commotion.
It doesn't take much thinking to know that a lot of trouble will definitely follow.
"Alas..."
Hiashi sighed again, feeling that Acting Hokage Shikaku's nap over there might have been completely ruined, and he himself would not even think about having a peaceful sleep tonight.
