[Back on the moon, Toneri took Hanabi's eyes and placed them into his own eye sockets.]
[He transplanted Hanabi's Byakugan and fused it with his own bloodline, transforming them into a pair of blue-white eyes—the cool Tenseigan.]
[This rare, ultimate contact lens successfully supports the future activation of the "Limited Edition Tenseigan Mode Chakra Cloak."]
[Finally, the Byakugan has its moment to shine.]
[Also… Neji, you died so tragically.]
"No, there's something wrong here."
Second Hokage's Timeline.
Tobirama Senju, who was already pondering the Tenseigan issue, saw Toneri dig out Hanabi's eyes and transplant them into his own sockets, turning them into Tenseigans.
This scene disrupted his thoughts.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Tobirama's strange expression, Izuna spoke with a hint of mockery: "Didn't we analyze this earlier? The Tenseigan is just an advanced version of the Byakugan. Toneri absorbed the power of Hanabi's Byakugan and evolved into the Tenseigan—that's how it should be, right?"
"No, it's not."
Tobirama glanced at Izuna.
He ignored Izuna's sarcasm, organizing his thoughts and said, "The light screen video earlier said the branch family used the Tenseigan as a weapon to eliminate the main family. The focus wasn't on the Tenseigan itself, but on the weapon.
I think the so-called Tenseigan weapon isn't the pair of Tenseigans Toneri has. Otherwise, there'd be no need to call it a weapon; it would just be called a Kekkei Genkai."
"Hmm."
Izuna thought for a moment and felt Tobirama had a point.
But eyes are just eyes, and he really couldn't imagine what it would be like to use eyes as a weapon.
"Damn it, Hanabi's eye got taken like that."
Fifth Hokage's timeline.
Naruto stared at the screen, seeing Hanabi with her eyes wrapped in white cloth, feeling very angry.
"That Toneri guy, I'm definitely going to beat him up."
Fourth Hokage's timeline.
Minato and the other two frowned at the scene.
"Didn't expect the Tenseigan to really evolve from the Byakugan."
Looking at the pair of blue-white Tenseigan, the Third Hokage felt very amazed.
"I wonder if someone from the Hyuga clan could evolve the Tenseigan too."
"In theory, since both sides descend from Otsutsuki Hamura, and Toneri evolved the Tenseigan after absorbing Hyuga Hanabi's eye power, then people from the Hyuga clan should be able to too."
Taking a sharp drag from his cigarette, under Kushina's disapproving look, the Third Hokage quietly asked, "How about letting someone from the Hyuga main family try?"
Minato hesitated about this.
He felt that digging out someone else's eye just to get the Tenseigan was kind of evil.
Besides, there weren't many people left in the Hyuga main family.
What if after absorbing all the eye power from the main family's Byakugan, no one evolved the Tenseigan? What would they do then?
Thinking about the tragic state where the entire clan had only one pair of Byakugan left, Minato shook his head.
"Let's wait until the Second Hokage grants us the resurrection technique before discussing this further."
Minato's calmness made the Third Hokage nod in agreement.
This matter would be dealt with later.
Third Hokage's timeline.
Like Naruto in the Fifth Hokage's timeline, Naruto in this timeline was also very angry.
But his anger didn't really help much because his power was lacking.
Even if Toneri appeared now in Konoha, it wouldn't be him to face him, but Madara, Jiraiya, and the others.
"Tenseigan? Hopefully, they'll bring me more surprises."
Madara Uchiha, who had regained his body, appeared in the office.
He hadn't spoken before partly to keep his aura, and partly because he had nothing to say.
Now that he saw the Tenseigans, theoretically comparable to the Rinnegan, he felt interested enough to speak.
"By the way, Madara, do you need to create the Six Paths of Pain?"
Madara shook his head at Minato's question.
"These are my own eyes. I don't need to create the Six Paths of Pain to use the Rinnegan's power. But Nagato is different. He can't fully use the Rinnegan's power; only by creating the Six Paths of Pain, each puppet controlling one path, can he unleash the Rinnegan's full power."
Hearing this, Orochimaru chuckled and said, "That's really a shame. I was hoping to see Madara controlling six paths cloned from himself."
"…With such careless words, do you really think I wouldn't kill you just because you have the resurrection technique?"
Looking into Madara's eyes full of killing intent, Orochimaru quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, I'm just a little curious. If you, Mr. Madara, don't want to, I won't force it."
"Hmph!"
[Toneri possessing the Tenseigan came to the surface on a starless night and took Hinata away, bringing her back to the moon to marry her.]
[Because Hinata accompanied Naruto on a mission, she also received instructions from her ancestor, Hamura, in the spiritual world, so she carried the plan to save Hanabi and the ninja world, and willingly threw herself into Toneri's arms in front of Naruto.]
[Naruto was a little confused and wanted to beat Toneri until he couldn't take care of himself before the blond on his head turned green.]
[But the movie wasn't over yet, so my Naruto was tricked by Toneri and also took a nuclear explosion hit.]
"How can Toneri travel so easily between the ninja world and the moon?"
The Second Hokage's timeline.
Six Paths Hashirama didn't understand how Toneri could freely travel between the ninja world and the moon.
If the Tenseigan is truly like the Rinnegan, then maybe Toneri really has that ability.
But he didn't have the Tenseigan before—so how did he come to the ninja world?
Madara looked at Hashirama with some disgust and said, "Do we really need to think about this? It must be because somewhere in the ninja world, there's a passage to the moon."
"I see, Madara, you're really smart."
Madara raised his head proudly and replied, "Heh, of course."
What Madara could think of, people from other timelines could naturally think of too.
At that moment, they all made a decision.
That after the video ends, they must find this passage.
Naruto and Sasuke from the Fifth Hokage's timeline exchanged a glance.
The fact that Hamura communicated with Hinata in the spiritual world reminded them of how the Sage of the Six Paths spoke to them during the Fourth Great Ninja War.
You could only say, true brothers—even their entrances are the same, both appearing inside someone else's spiritual world.
Thinking of this, Fifth Hokage's timeline Sasuke couldn't help but complain.
"If Hamura can appear in someone else's spiritual world, then why doesn't he show up in the spiritual world of the main or branch family members and clarify things? Wouldn't that stop them from splitting apart?"
Hamura: Shut up, you little brat. How would you understand my plans?
Sasuke: I think you've definitely forgotten.
Hamura: ...
