Chapter 52

In the hidden lab of Naruto,

Hinata was seated on her bed, diligently practicing her Byakugan. She was on the cusp of achieving her goal: to observe the DNA within her body and gain the ability to manipulate it.

Her eyes were gently closed, as she meticulously scanned every inch of her form. Gradually, she drew nearer to glimpsing the intricate DNA nestled within each cell. DNA stood as the fundamental building block of every living being.

She beheld spirals of various hues within her DNA, an array of colors unlike any other. Although she drew near, the distinction within the DNA still eluded her grasp.

Suddenly, memories flooded her mind, memories belonging to her shadow clone that she had left back at the Hyuga compound.

With a jolt, she opened her eyes, a fiery rage now evident within them.

In those memories, she found herself being summoned to the elders' meeting—a meeting where grim intentions had been revealed. According to the elders, the time had come to subject her to the cursed mark.

Hinata, who was peacefully practicing her Byakugan, found her clan intervening in her affairs. She hadn't interacted much with her clan, but now the elders and her father were growing impatient due to her rapid growth in the past six months.

It was clear to them that if they allowed her any more, she will surpass them. This was the main reason that there was no Hyuga powerhouse in the Konoha.

The elders fears them and had a sense of danger, and this was the case with Hinata, they could not control her, because she didn't have any curse seal on her forehead.

The primary reason for the Hyuga clan's lack of significant powerhouses lay with the clan's elders. They forbade anyone from advancing beyond the Jonin rank.

Even individuals in the branch house refrained from striving for strength, understanding that even if they were to become powerful, the main house would subdue them. There was no escaping their predetermined fate, leading to a broken spirit in their pursuit of strength.

Hinata sifted through her memories, her expression contorting with disgust. Her animosity towards the clan elders surged, a wicked grin spreading across her face.

"Curse mark seal, hehe... let's unveil your secrets, my dear father," her words resonated into the void, spoken to an unseen presence.

However, the very atmosphere seemed to heed her words, an aura of coldness descending upon her surroundings. Those imprisoned in the cells shuddered as an icy chill enveloped their bodies.

Tiny fissures began to snake their way across the room, a visual testament to the immense pressure she radiated.

"Jougan," she murmured in hushed tones, the words carrying an air of invocation. As her utterance hung in the air, a profound transformation overtook her eyes. The sclera darkened, engulfed by inky blackness, while her irises underwent a mesmerizing metamorphosis. They assumed a bluish-white hue, devoid of any pupils, an otherworldly manifestation of power.

The very space around her began to ripple as if the fabric of reality itself was responding to her presence. Before her eyes, a peculiar vortex began to take shape – a swirling, obsidian void that bore an uncanny resemblance to a black hole.

Within a span of mere seconds, the portal expanded, its dimensions growing until it stretched wide enough to accommodate her entry.

The portal's manifestation extended even into the heart of the Hyuga compound. It materialized within the confines of Hinata's room, a spatial rift that bridged two distant points. Stepping forth from the portal, she emerged into the chamber, her presence a testament to her mastery over this mysterious power.

As swiftly as it had appeared, the portal behind her sealed shut, severing the connection between the two locations.

This marked one of Jougan's unique capabilities – the power of dimension-traveling. This extraordinary ability harnessed the potential of her eyes, harnessing their enigmatic nature to traverse the boundaries between realms. Remarkably, this feat didn't demand an exorbitant amount of chakra.

The Elemental Nations were surrounded by a myriad of dimensions, each concealed from the ordinary eye.

To gain entry into these hidden realms necessitated a distinct set of skills or specialized implements. Her Jougan granted her access to this hidden web of dimensions, enabling her to embark on journeys that few could even fathom.

Like Obito's Kamui, Kamui had its own separate dimension, he can travel through it, the Kamui dimension was connected to the original dimension but located on a different plain.

Similar to the unexplored dimensions that lay within Obito's Kamui realm, the Jougan harbored access to a multitude of untouched dimensions. With this ability, she possessed the means to open gateways into these hidden realms, just as Kamui had done.

However, unlocking these passages required a distinct connection – an innate attunement to the dimensions themselves.

To navigate these alternate realms, the Jougan's power went beyond mere mechanics. Sensing the presence of these dimensions was the initial step; once she established this connection, the Jougan would seamlessly facilitate her passage, orchestrating her journey through the enigmatic web of dimensions.

Indeed, Hinata stood as an unparalleled figure within the Elemental Nations, possessing the extraordinary ability to teleport to various dimensions at will. Her mastery over dimension-traveling through the Jougan marked her as the foremost adept in this esoteric art.

Whether she relied on specific coordinate points or honed her innate ability to sense the desired destinations, the realms and dimensions of the world were at her fingertips, waiting to be explored with her unique prowess.

Indeed, the dimension-traveling capability was merely one facet of the Jougan's vast repertoire. This enigmatic dojutsu held a trove of uncharted abilities waiting to be unearthed. With its potential seemingly boundless and its mysteries deep, the Jougan stood as an unparalleled force among dojutsu.

In summary, its multifaceted nature and latent powers positioned it as one of, if not the most, formidable and versatile dojutsu in existence, possessing abilities that could shape the course of events on a grand scale.

Hinata materialized within the confines of her room, her gaze sweeping across the familiar surroundings. Drawing in a deep breath, she soaked in the ambiance that surrounded her.

"It's been some time," she whispered to herself, the words carrying a tinge of nostalgia.

Ever since Naruto's discovery of the concealed laboratory, her presence had remained tethered to it, both as its guardian and as her representative within the Hyuga clan. To balance these dual roles, she had enlisted a shadow clone to stand in her stead.

Stepping out of her room, Hinata embarked on a journey toward the meeting room. The corridors seemed to yield to her presence, a silent acknowledgment of her status.

As she approached, she encountered her fellow clan members – each one displaying a humble deference, their heads respectfully lowered.

The memory of the past, the mistakes made mere months ago, loomed over them like a cautionary tale. This time, their demeanor radiated a solemnity, a collective determination to avoid repeating past missteps.

Before her stood a room, its entrance marked by gates of remarkable size. In stark contrast to the compound's other gates, these were grand and imposing.

This chamber held a distinct significance within the clan – it was the venue for the clandestine gatherings, shrouded in secrecy and reserved for discussions of the utmost importance.

"Lady Hinata, please proceed inside. The clan head and elders await your presence," the guard before the room respectfully addressed her. With a gesture of deference, he swung open the gates, inviting her to step into the chamber where the weighty matters of the clan were to be discussed.

Acknowledging the guard's words with a nod, Hinata proceeded into the meeting room. The gates sealed shut behind her, cocooning the chamber in a hushed atmosphere.

Illuminated by the warm glow of candles, the room unfolded before her. As she advanced, her gaze fell upon the assembled council of elders, a solemn assembly of eleven individuals. Ten of them were elders, each possessing a wealth of experience and wisdom, and her father, the patriarch of the clan, completed the assembly.

They also looked at her, they were in haste to put the curse mark on her, fearing her growth, they could feel the power from her, but the fools didn't know that was the shadow clone they were feeling until now, and now she stood in front of them.

"Hinata, you know why are you here," Hiashi spoke in his usual tone, without any emotions.

Her gaze locked onto her father's, the flames of her fury burning bright within her eyes. With deliberate steps, she advanced and took her seat, positioning herself across from Hiashi.

The tension in the room palpably hung in the air, a silent testament to the emotions that simmered beneath the surface.

A seemingly innocent smile graced Hinata's lips as she addressed her father.

"I don't know why I'm here, Could you please enlighten me…dear father?" Her words carried the sweet cadence of sincerity, the smile she wore radiating a sense of purity.

Yet, hidden within that façade was a veiled malevolence, a darkness lurking behind her expression.

The elders, seasoned observers, sensed the duplicity woven into her words, recognizing that she was far from genuine in her demeanor.

"Drop the pretense of innocence, Hinata," Hiashi's voice cut through the air, its icy tone carrying a hint of exasperation.

The transformation in Hinata was swift and chilling. Her once warm smile gave way to eyes as cold as ice, her visage assuming an unyielding stoicism.

The very air within the room seemed to congeal with frost, an eerie chill descending upon them all. Those assembled felt an inexplicable pressure settling on their bodies, an unspoken weight that was almost suffocating.

Involuntarily, her fingers began to crackle with small arcs of electricity, the sparks winding around her digits like serpents of light. It was a manifestation of her Storm Release.

a force that responded to her emotional state. The atmosphere itself trembled, echoing her newfound intensity.
