"Lord Yuzuru, I... thank you so much."
Hanabi Hyuga was so excited that she could barely form a coherent sentence.
After all, not long ago, she had been in despair, thinking she would spend the rest of her life imprisoned as a blind person.
And now, not only had the bastard who kidnapped and tortured her been killed, but her sight had also been restored.
For a moment, the way Hanabi looked at Yuzuru was filled with dazed admiration.
Lord Yuzuru...
He really was handsome.
Compared to the excited Hanabi, Hinata Hyuga frowned and asked, "Lord Yuzuru, why did Hanabi's eyes turn into that when they were in Otsutsuki Toneri's body?"
"And what exactly is the Tenseigan?"
Hearing this, Yuzuru began to explain.
"Just as the Sharingan can evolve into the Mangekyo Sharingan, the Byakugan can also evolve."
"The Tenseigan is one form of the Byakugan's evolution."
"Roughly speaking... it would be equivalent to the Rinnegan."
After hearing Yuzuru's explanation, Hinata and Hanabi both sucked in a breath.
"The Rinnegan?!"
The two of them looked at each other in disbelief.
After all, the Rinnegan was a powerful kekkei genkai hailed as the "Sage's Eye."
The Byakugan could actually evolve to that level?
"You don't need to be so surprised. The ancestor of the Hyuga clan was the younger brother of the Sage of Six Paths."
"So there is nothing strange about the Byakugan being able to evolve into the Tenseigan."
Hinata and Hanabi nodded firmly, and an inexplicable sense of pride rose in their hearts.
Ever since Konoha was founded, the Hyuga clan's Byakugan and the Uchiha clan's Sharingan had always been known as the two strongest dōjutsu kekkei genkai in the ninja world.
The members of the Hyuga clan had also never felt that they were inferior to the Uchiha clan.
But after Yuzuru's meteoric rise, the Uchiha clan's Sharingan had displayed an unparalleled power.
Especially after the Sharingan evolved into the Mangekyo Sharingan, the power it displayed was something the Byakugan could no longer compare to at all.
Later, after Yuzuru evolved his Mangekyo Sharingan into the Rinnegan, the Hyuga clan's Byakugan had even less ground to stand on.
Although the Byakugan's abilities were still extremely practical, before the Sharingan, it had already been reduced to a second-rate dōjutsu kekkei genkai.
And because the Byakugan had always been compared to the Sharingan in the past, it only led to everyone mocking them, believing the Hyuga clan were all boastful, arrogant fools.
But now, everything was different.
After all, they had clearly felt the power Otsutsuki Toneri had just displayed with the Tenseigan.
Although it still could not compare to Yuzuru's power, it was enough to raise the reputation of the Hyuga clan's Byakugan by another level.
At the very least, it would not be like now, where everyone wore a look of contempt and disdain whenever the Byakugan was mentioned.
After thinking it over briefly, Hinata asked with some anticipation, "Lord Yuzuru, how can the Byakugan evolve into the Tenseigan?"
Yuzuru said slowly, "Because there is no intermediate transitional form, the Byakugan's evolution is even more difficult than the Sharingan's."
"Otsutsuki Toneri's Tenseigan was also only barely maintained through external power."
Hearing this, Hinata and Hanabi were slightly disappointed.
If it could not evolve, then wouldn't it be no different from before?
But before they could say anything, Yuzuru spoke again.
"You don't need to make that face. As it happens, I know there is still a Giant Tenseigan on the moon."
"As long as its power is absorbed, it will definitely help you awaken the Tenseigan!"
Seeing Yuzuru point at her, Hinata was somewhat surprised. "Me?"
"That's right. Did you forget? Otsutsuki Toneri called you the Byakugan Princess with the purest eyes."
Hanabi said excitedly, "Then what are we waiting for? Please help my sister evolve her eyes into the Tenseigan, Lord Yuzuru."
"Our Hyuga clan will surely remember your kindness forever. Even if we must go through fire and water, we will not hesitate!"
Yuzuru smiled. "There is no need for such flattery. I don't really have anything I need the Hyuga clan for."
Hearing this, Hanabi smiled charmingly and walked to Hinata's side.
"I've long heard that Lord Yuzuru has always been setting an example for the Uchiha clan's population revival."
"I wonder if you are interested in a pair of sisters?"
After hearing Hanabi's words, Hinata hurriedly said, "Hanabi, don't talk nonsense in front of Lord Yuzuru!"
"Sis, don't be shy."
After saying that, Hanabi reached out and gave Hinata a strong push on the back, causing Hinata to thrust her chest forward at once.
"Hanabi, you, you..."
Steam rose from Hinata's head. Her skin turned as red as a boiled lobster, and she closed her eyes and fainted on the spot.
"Why did she faint..."
"Lord Yuzuru, I'll leave my sister in your care."
Looking at Hinata, who had been pushed into his arms by Hanabi, Yuzuru forcefully suppressed the corner of his mouth and said in a deep voice, "Hanabi, wait here for a while. I'll go help Hinata absorb the power of the Giant Tenseigan."
Hanabi nodded obediently. "Lord Yuzuru, do your best!"
Seeing Hanabi's mischievous expression, Yuzuru also felt somewhat helpless. He directly activated Kamui and disappeared from the spot.
"Hinata, wake up."
Hinata opened her eyes in a daze and asked in confusion, "What happened to me?"
"You were too embarrassed just now and fainted."
After hearing Yuzuru's reminder, Hinata finally remembered what had just happened.
She lowered her head shyly and said, "Lord Yuzuru, Hanabi has always been like that. Please don't be angry."
Yuzuru shook his head and smiled. "Do I look angry to you?"
"Hinata, you just lack a little confidence."
Hearing this, Hinata said quietly, "But there really isn't anything about me that's better than others..."
"How could there not be?" Yuzuru said slowly. "Not being able to see your feet when you look down is already an advantage most people can hardly hope to reach."
Hinata froze for a moment, then lowered her head in confusion and glanced down.
Immediately afterward, she felt her body begin to heat up again.
Did Lord Yuzuru mean what she thought he meant?
"All right. I am going to transfer the Giant Tenseigan's power into your body now."
"This is the key to evolving the Byakugan into the Tenseigan. Calm yourself first."
Seeing Hinata show signs of fainting again, Yuzuru quickly changed the subject.
Hearing that it was serious business, Hinata hurriedly nodded hard. "I understand, Lord Yuzuru!"
Before long, after seeing Hinata nod to signal that she was ready, Yuzuru placed his hand on the Giant Tenseigan and began channeling its power into Hinata's body.
