Chapter 170 Landing on the Moon
After leaving Root, Minato quietly arrived at the Hyuga residence.
With his strength, the Hyuga clan naturally wouldn't have noticed his arrival.
Minato, taking advantage of Hyuga Hiashi's sleep, branded him with the Umashiasa Bihikochi mark.
As the heir to the Hyuga clan's headship, Hiashi Hyuga's Byakugan purity goes without saying.
Although his younger brother Hyuga Hizashi was also quite good, Minato was worried that the Caged Bird Seal would have an impact, so he set his sights on Hyuga Hiashi.
It's worth mentioning that the mark on Umashi Asuka Bibikochi's body is very similar to the tattoos of those who have been marked with the wedge mark in Boruto.
The black markings resembled a large net, mostly covering the area around Hiashi Hyuga's eyes.
As time passed, the black markings slowly contracted, eventually transforming into a black mark with three interlocking circles in front of Hyuga Hiashi's forehead, resembling a Rinnegan.
At the same time, the same mark appeared on the forehead of the water gate.
However, unlike the large net on Hiashi Hyuga's body that shrinks into a circle, Minato's mark is the opposite, expanding from a circle into a large net.
And during this time, the large net continuously extracted chakra from Minato's body, a process that lasted for about an hour.
The pattern disappeared quietly after it was fully spread out, and at the same time, Minato vaguely noticed that his eyes seemed to have undergone some kind of change.
He left the Hyuga family home, returned to his own home, and went into the bathroom.
Looking at the light purple Rinnegan in the mirror, Minato followed that inexplicable intuition and channeled his chakra into his eyes.
A faint chakra fluctuation spread out, veins bulged at the corners of Minato's eyes, and the Rinnegan rippled outwards, revealing a pair of pure white eyes.
"That's what you call—the eye roll!"
A strange perspective appeared in Minato's mind. As if by instinct, in an instant, his gaze reversed and saw the scene two kilometers behind him!
Looking at his reflection in the mirror, Minato slowly withdrew his chakra.
However, something unexpected happened. Although he could clearly feel the power of the Rinnegan, his eyes were still those pure white ones.
Minato's eye twitched almost imperceptibly for a moment.
Buzz—
He adjusted his pupil power and switched to the Rinnegan again.
Then he adjusted his pupil power, and the white eye reappeared.
Where are my big, blue eyes?!
Looking into the pure white eyes in the mirror, Minato fell silent for a moment.
He remembered that Urashiki Ōtsutsuki could freely switch between the Byakugan and Rinnegan. Although he was an original character created for the anime, he was the only one he knew who could freely switch between eye techniques.
So, with the idea of giving it a try, Minato immediately replicated the Byakugan bloodline limit.
To say it was a success, it certainly was.
The Byakugan and Rinnegan can indeed be switched between each other, probably because they are inherited from the Otsutsuki bloodline.
Both the Rinnegan and Sharingan are branches of the God Tree's power, which is why the Rinnegan cannot be switched. There is no switching between the two; they belong to the same evolutionary system.
However, the Byakugan and Rinnegan are indeed two different systems.
Minato was very happy that he could switch between the Rinnegan and other eye techniques at will.
Why is the normal state after switching to white eyes?
Sunflower can also use Byakugan, but normally she still has blue eyes like those from the Namikaze family!
"That's thorough enough—"
Minato frowned, thought for a moment, and then looked at the moon outside the window.
If I remember correctly, the Tenseigan is also blue?
Although it was much more beautiful than his original blue eyes, he had no other choice.
If the villagers discover that he has awakened a pair of white eyes, then Konoha will have the biggest scandal of the year.
Thinking of this, Minato temporarily abandoned the idea of collecting bloodline limits, used the Flying Thunder God Flash to leave the Konoha barrier area, then activated the Rinnegan and flew towards the moon.
After flying tens of thousands of meters without feeling any lack of oxygen, Minato did not hesitate for a moment and flew towards the moon at top speed.
The ninja world's space has oxygen, which is very humane!
Furthermore, since the moon was created by the Sage of Six Paths as Chibaku Tensei, it is not far from the ninja world.
Furthermore, since there is no gravity in space, Minato does not need to continuously consume chakra; he only needs to use the power of the Deva Path to increase his speed to the maximum.
After flying for about two hours, Watergate slowly landed in a crater on the lunar surface.
He then activated his senses to the maximum and flew toward the far side of the moon.
A short while later, a small sun emitting a hazy halo appeared in the water gate's field of vision.
"If I remember correctly, Otsutsuki Toneri lived here—"
Minato squinted, pondering where he could sneak in, when suddenly a circular hole appeared in the sun.
Immediately afterwards, a young man and woman dressed in white robes, with white hair and white eyes, stood on the back of the flying puppet and flew towards the water gate.
"The Rinnegan?"
Minato's dark goggles failed to conceal the man's scrutinizing gaze; the man's Byakugan was clearly more insightful than that of the Hyuga clan.
"I never imagined that someone in the ninja world could awaken these eyes—"
As he spoke, the man's eyes sharpened: "So, you're the one who stole the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path?"
Minato shook his head, took out the container containing Madara's Rinnegan, and weighed it in his hand.
"Another pair of Rinnegan—"
Seeing this, the man's expression softened: "State your purpose, descendant of the Sage of Six Paths."
"You're from a branch family that split off from the descendants of Hamura, aren't you?"
After carefully sensing the area and finding no other signs of life within the small sun, Minato asked, "Has the main family been wiped out by you?"
"How did you find out?" the man didn't deny it, but asked with a serious expression.
"I have come to the moon at the request of the Sage of Six Paths to guide you to meet your ancestor, Hamura Otsutsuki."
Minato casually lied: "Hamura Otsutsuki's soul is still on the moon, unable to escape due to the conflicts between his descendants. The Sage of Six Paths couldn't bear to see his younger brother like this, so he entrusted me to come in a dream."
Now, only this young couple remains as descendants of Hamura. If possible, Minato doesn't want to clash with them. He's after the Otsutsuki bloodline, and it would be bad if he accidentally killed them.
He could sense that the young couple's strength was average, far inferior to Toneri who awakened the Tenseigan in the movie. Even with the Tenseigan, they would still be no match for him.
So, if you can fool someone, then fool them.
Besides, aside from the Sage of Six Paths' dream, Hamura Otsutsuki genuinely wanted to communicate with the descendants of the branch family, which could be considered a good deed.
In this way, I will help your ancestors find liberation, and you will cooperate with me to replicate your bloodline. Is that too much to ask?
