Chapter 51: The Power of the Tenseigan

Read 20+ Chapter's Ahead in Patreon

In order to protect future generations of the Ōtsutsuki clan, Ōtsutsuki Hamura left behind two powerful trump cards.

The first was the terrifying human puppet-making technique.

The second was an imperfectly evolved Tenseigan.

The former emphasized quantity and could be used to resist foreign invasions.

If the Shinobi World ever faced a crisis, human puppets could also be used to suppress rebellions.

The latter emphasized individual power. If an enemy as terrifying as Kaguya ever appeared, the Tenseigan could be used to confront them.

For all these years, the second trump card was never used because there were too few people who knew of its existence.

Ōtsutsuki Sugito, originally a moderate leader who respected the clan's teachings and didn't want to start any wars, was pushed to his limits when invaders killed his only son.

It was intolerable!

Driven by hatred, he decisively activated the Ōtsutsuki clan's final trump card.

An imperfectly evolved Tenseigan.

"You will all die!"

The chakra constantly expanding within him made Sugito feel as though he might explode.

To avoid dying from chakra overload, he could only release the energy within his body.

"Ha!"

He opened his mouth and roared. A terrifying green chakra sphere formed in front of him.

The surrounding walls cracked under the pressure of the terrifying wave.

"This damn bastard!"

Hyūga Kenji, who witnessed the entire process through his Byakugan, knew that this would be a devastating attack.

While silently gathering his chakra, he marveled at the power of the Tenseigan.

What he didn't realize was that these eyes were only in their initial embryonic stage.

Unable to enter the Tenseigan chakra mode, unable to form the Truth Seeking Orb, and unable to perform the devastating techniques that could split the moon in two.

Apart from enhancing his chakra, Ōtsutsuki Sugito could only use the basic abilities of attraction and repulsion.

Even so, for an average elite jonin, his power was already overwhelmingly strong.

Buzz!

The massive chakra sphere whizzed toward them, destroying everything in its path. Even Kyosuke felt the unusual disturbance.

"What the hell is that?"

Kyosuke took a deep breath, momentarily thinking it was a Tailed Beast Bomb being launched at him.

Then he quickly realized that there could be no Tailed Beast on the moon.

Even the Ten Tails, now just a shell, couldn't mobilize chakra anymore.

"That green energy... No way, do they already have the Tenseigan?" He finally guessed the source of the problem.

Kyosuke quickly prepared to flee.

Opening the Tenseigan chakra mode would make its user a Six Paths-level warrior.

At this point in time, they would be strong enough to dominate the entire Ninja World.

Without breaking a sweat, just using the Chakra Orb could easily annihilate a large number of clan leaders.

"Step back a bit," Hyūga Kenji said as he assumed a Gentle Fist stance, exuding a terrifying aura.

Gentle Fist - Eight Trigrams Mountain Crusher!

The users of Gentle Fist could freely control the chakra points of their body, meaning they had exceptional control over chakra.

The Eight Trigrams Mountain Crusher was a technique that condensed chakra to create a force far beyond what it could normally produce.

Although his chakra was no match for the enemy's, by striking with precision, he was able to destroy the incoming green sphere.

Boom!

A loud explosion echoed, shaking the entire palace.

In the blink of an eye, Ōtsutsuki Sugito broke through the fog and appeared in front of the two of them.

The surge in his power gave him a false sense of dominance.

"You will all die here today." Sugito's voice was filled with hatred.

On the opposite side, Hyūga Kenji braced himself, knowing that the enemy's strength was on par with a clan leader's—definitely a formidable opponent.

Kyosuke, on the other hand, appeared puzzled.

The enemy's strength was overwhelming?

On the contrary, the man's power didn't match his status as a Tenseigan user.

Apart from the dazzling eyes, he hadn't activated any special chakra mode, hadn't summoned the Truth Seeking Orb, and couldn't even float.

The powerful Dojutsu of the Otsutsuki Hamura had been reduced to merely a chakra amplifier in his case.

It was ridiculous.

"Perhaps, the Tenseigan has stages of evolution, similar to the Mangekyō Sharingan," Kyosuke mused.

Clearly, this person wasn't worthy of the title of Tenseigan wielder, or perhaps his eyes weren't a perfect Dojutsu.

From the most straightforward observation, the enemy did possess clan leader-level destructive power, but in other aspects, he was severely lacking.

Simply put, it was like a child holding a gun: the destructive potential was there, but there was no mastery of the weapon.

For someone like Hyūga Kenji, the power might be enough to overwhelm him, but for someone of equal rank...

Suddenly, a loud bang came from the direction of the information room, and in just a few seconds, Hyūga Tenjin appeared next to Kyosuke.

He was holding the corpse of the young clan leader in his hand.

"Bastard, put down my son's body!" Ōtsutsuki Sugito's anger flared, and his attacks grew more vicious.

"Take the body," Tenjin said indifferently. "I've checked the relevant information. To activate the Tenseigan, you need to use the most direct Ōtsutsuki bloodline."

Kyosuke seemed to understand what he meant.

He ordered Hyūga Kenji to retreat, then, before leaving, Tenjin decided to test the enemy's power.

Having studied many records, he knew the enemy's state. The posture didn't seem like the true power of the Tenseigan.

With a cross-step and a graceful movement of his arms, he took the same stance as Hyūga Kenji.

Both were preparing for the Eight Trigrams Mountain Crusher, but the difference in their power was immense.

Chakra gathered with terrifying force, and with a swift motion, Tenjin struck at the critical point.

In an instant, an invisible shockwave spread out, destroying the green chakra sphere and obliterating the palace a thousand meters away.

Gentle Fist - Eight Trigrams Mountain Crusher!

This was one of the Hyūga clan's most powerful techniques.

Its power was comparable to a Tailed Beast Bomb, making it an S-rank skill in the realm of taijutsu.

Dazed, Ōtsutsuki Sugito finally snapped out of his delusion.

He realized that, even with the blessing of the ancestors' power, he couldn't unleash such terrifying attacks.

Unless, of course, the Tenseigan evolved to a higher level.

As the palace exploded, the enemy vanished from sight, and Sugito could not track their movements.

"My child..."

Hatred continued to spread, torturing his mind and body.

After venting for a while, Ōtsutsuki Sugito made up his mind.

He would take revenge on the hateful Hyūga clan.

But first, he needed to cultivate the evolved state of the Tenseigan.

As he thought about it, Sugito's gaze fell on the bodies of the Ōtsutsuki clan members being carried over.

They were dead Hyūga clan members.

"Wait... One day, I will find you all."
