Genocide.
What a chilling word.
Think about it—
the Uchiha clan, the most powerful family in Konoha Village, wiped out overnight?
All the elite shinobi, all the prodigies… just gone?
If that's possible,
then is anyone in Konoha truly safe?
The Third Hokage eventually blamed the entire incident on Uchiha Itachi,
insisting it was an internal clan conflict—a sudden, uncontrollable uprising.
But…
Would the major clans really believe that?
And even if they pretended to,
could they still view the Third Hokage the same way they used to?
Yoruha had a unique perspective on that question.
He remembered clearly:
during Orochimaru's assault on the village—when he trapped Hiruzen Sarutobi inside the Four Purple Flame Formation—
very few of the major clans moved to save him.
In the end,
the Third Hokage still managed to die a hero, sacrificing himself to protect Konoha,
earning the reputation of a noble martyr.
But that was just politics.
And it was only thanks to his own willpower that he could be remembered with such honor.
"Three years left before Orochimaru's attack..."
"And my current strength… is still far from enough."
To be honest, surviving the Konoha Crush wouldn't be that hard.
During the Chunin Exams,
most of the villagers are evacuated ahead of time.
If Yoruha really wanted to just stay alive,
he could easily take his family, find a quiet place to hide, and wait it out.
But that's not how his system works.
Knowing its twisted logic,
it would absolutely toss him right into the middle of danger with a cheerful message like:
"Sign-in successful! The greater the danger, the greater the reward!"
So if Orochimaru is the looming threat,
Yoruha had no choice but to prepare himself for it now.
And preparation means one thing:
Power.
A forest hidden from view.
Yoruha stood silently, scanning the area to make sure no one was watching.
Then, he activated his newly gained ability from last night's sign-in.
His eyes opened—
and the world around him changed.
"This 360-degree vision… it's surreal.
Too bad everything's black and white except for chakra."
Byakugan.
A bloodline dōjutsu originating from the Ōtsutsuki clan.
It granted nearly complete field of vision,
and the ability to see through chakra pathways, meridians, and pressure points.
But Yoruha wasn't sure if his version of the Byakugan was modeled after the Hyuga Clan's relatively "low-tier" form,
or if he had something closer to the Ōtsutsuki original.
If it was the latter…
"Then this is a jackpot."
After all, Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's techniques—like the Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack and Byakugan Suppression—
were practically divine in scale.
He moved his fingers slightly, watching his chakra networks shift and pulse.
Every strand, every flow, every reaction was laid out before him like a blueprint.
"So that's it…
If I can see my own chakra pathways clearly,
I can control chakra with far more precision."
Most shinobi possess multiple chakra attributes,
but it's rare—nearly impossible—for them to generate different elemental chakra types simultaneously in their bodies.
But Yoruha was different now.
Thanks to the Byakugan,
he could observe his meridians and control the individual flow of chakra types with surgical precision.
That meant…
he could potentially produce multiple elemental chakra natures at once.
But—there was a catch.
Hinata had once warned him:
"If two chakra natures merge inside the body without balance,
the resulting reaction could destroy your organs from the inside out.
The backlash is lethal. Many who try it die from internal explosions."
That's why only shinobi with bloodline limits—like the famous Kekkei Genkai—
can safely fuse chakra natures.
Take Pakura of Sunagakure, for example.
Her Scorch Release was a fusion of Wind and Fire natures.
Her unique bloodline allowed her to generate that chakra naturally, with no harm to her body.
Ordinary ninja couldn't even come close to doing that.
But now…
Yoruha had a bold, reckless idea.
What if, with enough control—
with Byakugan-enhanced precision—
he could force two chakra types to blend in perfect harmony, without a Kekkei Genkai?
What if he could bypass the body's natural limitations by managing chakra like a surgeon?
It was dangerous.
Insane, even.
But…
"If I can master it," he murmured,
"I might not need a bloodline limit at all."
Yoruha's eyes gleamed silver-white as chakra pulsed gently through his veins.
A new path had opened.
And he was ready to walk it.
