Chapter 254: Different Ideas

"What are you all looking at?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Mikoto turned and replied, "Shishou is fighting on the moon, and we are a bit worried about him."

The voice continued, "I see. Well, you all keep watching. I'll take Hyuga Rimei to the moon first."

"Uh..."

Mikoto, Hyuga Rimei, and Pakura were all stunned.

"That voice sounded like Shishou..."

They put down their binoculars and turned to look at where the voice had come from. They saw Shishou standing beside them, squinting in the direction they had been looking, trying to figure out what they were watching.

"Shishou, didn't Rimei say you were fighting on the moon...?" Pakura asked, bewildered.

"I came to take Rimei to the moon. We'll talk again in a few days."

Shishou smiled, pulling the still-confused Hyuga Rimei into his arms and disappearing.

'To the moon...'

Hearing Shishou's words, Mikoto, Pakura, Anko, and Hyuga Natsu exchanged glances, feeling a bit envious.

The moon... they all wanted to go!

...

On the moon.

Inside the Hamura Shrine.

"Shishou, what is this?"

Hyuga Rimei asked curiously, looking at the giant glowing yellow eye before her. She felt a familiar aura emanating from it.

"Give me your hand and transfer some of your chakra to me."

Ignoring her question, Shishou extended his right hand to her.

"H-hand..."

Startled by Shishou's request, Hyuga Rimei nervously placed her left hand in his, starting to transfer her chakra.

Combining Hyuga Rimei's chakra with his own, Shishou used it to envelop the giant reincarnation eye before them. Then, he and Hyuga Rimei vanished, taking the giant reincarnation eye from the Hamura Shrine with them.

...

Back at their secret base in Fire Source City, Shishou placed the giant reincarnation eye in a room full of seals, leaving three wood clones to guard it.

After completing these tasks, he smiled at Hyuga Rimei and explained, "This is a reincarnation eye, formed from the white eyes of the Otsutsuki clan on the moon. It possesses extremely terrifying abilities."

With the giant reincarnation eye in hand, Shishou was in no rush to return to the moon. Without the power of the giant reincarnation eye, the Otsutsuki father and son would lose their chakra mode and the ability to create Truth-Seeking Balls, making them easy to defeat.

Careful above the Sage of Six Paths, he struck hard below it.

Hyuga Rimei was stunned by Shishou's words, asking, "What is a reincarnation eye?"

Shishou laughed again, looking at Hyuga Rimei's elegant face and explaining, "The special white eyes of the Hyuga clan, when combined with the chakra of the Otsutsuki clan on the moon, can evolve into reincarnation eyes, granting power far beyond the super shadow level."

"I call this power the Six Paths."

With the method to reach the moon found and the giant reincarnation eye obtained, Shishou planned to start Hyuga Rimei's reincarnation eye awakening project soon.

Hearing this, Hyuga Rimei's eyes widened, blinking at Shishou. She asked, "Shishou, do you mean the Sage of Six Paths?"

Shishou nodded, smiling. "Yes."

Hyuga Rimei continued, "And what exactly is a special white eye?"

She looked nervously at Shishou, holding his hand and feeling unsure whether she should take the initiative to advance their relationship.

Moreover, hearing that the special white eyes could awaken into the reincarnation eye with the power of the Sage of Six Paths, she felt a spark of hope that she might be the special one.

If she wasn't, she hoped Hinata or Hanabi would have such special eyes.

Seeing the hopeful look in Hyuga Rimei's eyes, Shishou smiled, gently pinching her cheek and caressing her soft lips.

Hinata and Hanabi were still young; Hyuga Rimei, who also had special white eyes, was the best candidate for his reincarnation eye experiment.

The power of the reincarnation eye rivaled that of the Rinnegan. If successfully awakened and mastered, it could immediately elevate one to the Six Paths level, providing Shishou with a powerful ally.

Moreover, he could potentially awaken his own reincarnation eye by transplanting cells from the awakened Hyuga Rimei.

Shishou wasn't worried about Hyuga Rimei's loyalty.

Firstly, he had already implanted Phosphorus Bad Bugs in her, preventing any betrayal. Secondly, he had noticed her unusual behavior, likely her attempts to seduce him, confirmed by Uchiha Mikoto a few days ago.

Hyuga Rimei blushed deeply at Shishou's actions, feeling shy and nervous. She decided to seize this rare opportunity, following Mikoto's advice, and lightly licked his fingers.

Embarrassed by her bold move, she lowered her head, avoiding Shishou's gaze.

Such a seductive little enchantress!

Seeing her shy demeanor, Shishou's breath caught. He retracted his hand, smiling at Hyuga Rimei. "You possess a pair of special white eyes, and I plan to experiment on you to see if they can awaken into reincarnation eyes."

Hyuga Rimei, who was a bit disappointed when Shishou withdrew his hand, lit up with joy and surprise. "Shishou, is that true? Can my eyes also awaken into reincarnation eyes?"

Seeing her happy smile, Shishou laughed. "Of course, why else would I have you by my side?"

Hyuga Rimei bit her lip, staring at Shishou silently. Though thrilled about her special white eyes, she felt frustrated that her months of attempts to seduce him had been fruitless.

Determined to achieve her goal, she mustered her courage, grabbed Shishou's hand, and asked nervously, "Shishou-sama, do you really have no other thoughts about me?" Hyuga Rimei asked, her voice trembling.
