Chapter 499 - Chapter 157: Otsutsuki Hamura's First Experience with the Will of Fire, Aomi Awakens the Tenseigan!

"Sigh..."

Toneri, or rather Otsutsuki Hamura, looked at the stand-off between the Hyuga Main Family and the Branch Family and shook his head in helplessness.

Always like this, again like this!

On the Moon, among Hamura's descendants, a similar conflict occurred. The Branch sacrificed almost everyone to gather the Byakugan into a purple stone Tenseigan, and wiped out the bloodline-related Main Family in one fell swoop.

Afterward, the survivors of the Branch merged the Byakugan from the Main Family's corpses into this purple Tenseigan, transforming it into a giant golden Tenseigan.

The golden Tenseigan not only possesses the power to move the Moon but can also absorb chakra from those without Hamura's bloodline.

"The Branch on the Moon believed the world created by my brother was wrong, so they killed the Main Family supporting the status quo of the Ninja World..."

Otsutsuki Hamura concealed his existence with genjutsu, silently watching this drama of his last direct descendant, pondering:

"Then in the Ninja World, what will be the reason?"

Otsutsuki Hamura looked at this scene with conflict. Unlike the Six Paths Sage who firmly wanted to seal Kaguya, his mindset had also changed over the millennium...

Was it right or wrong to treat Otsutsuki Kaguya so violently without sufficient communication at the time?

And his brother Otsutsuki Hamura, who established the Ninja Sect based on mutual understanding and developed the Ninja World, was it really correct?

Throughout the thousand-year history of the Ninja World, Otsutsuki Hamura hadn't seen a hint of peace.

Instead, Kaguya's seal was loosening, unknown outside forces might arrive at any time, like a sword hanging over everyone's head, never knowing when it might fall...

This is why after Kaguya broke free, he chose to possess Toneri and come to the Ninja World himself.

Otsutsuki Hamura wanted to meet Aomi.

He wanted to see this extraordinary young man, the first in a millennium to pull Kaguya from the Moon without a Rinnegan and without contact with the Gedo Statue, and then re-seal her...

In Aomi, Otsutsuki Hamura seemed to see a glimmer of hope for the future of the Ninja World!

With the stance of a mortal, challenging the talent of a god, and a heart full of great love sufficient to protect this planet!

Otsutsuki Hamura wanted to hear what Aomi thought, and what he intended to do in the future...

However, if Aomi were possessed by Kaguya and planned to destroy the Ninja World, Otsutsuki Hamura would still choose to act...

And at this moment.

The heated argument within the Hyuga Clan began...

"Hizashi, the principle of our Hyuga Clan is self-preservation, never to take sides!"

The Main Family head looked sternly at Hyuga Hizashi, his pale eyes full of dignity accumulated over many years in a high position: "Don't even mention Uchiha Aomi, that genius from a rival clan to our Hyuga Clan..."

"Even if it's this village, Konoha, remember that the clan must come first!"

"You even want to mobilize other Branch members and request the Main Family to act together? Have you considered the safety issues of the Main Family at Uchiha Aomi's self-seal location?!"

"You're a Branch member, have you forgotten your duty as the Branch of the Hyuga Clan?!"

The Main Family head reprimanded Hyuga Hizashi, secretly pinching a seal under his wide sleeves, ready to use the Caged Bird Jutsu...

In truth, if it weren't for the concern of Hyuga Hizashi's Root-supported status, the Main Family head would have already imposed harsh punishment on this rebellious Branch member!

Listen to his words, where is there any semblance of a Branch member?

The only mission of the Branch is to protect the Main Family; no other thoughts should appear in their minds!

Hyuga Hizashi coldly laughed, shook his head and said:

"This is the Hyuga Clan... The old Root established by Shimura Danzo, a traitorous ninja, has always been called the darkest place in this village, chilling to the bone."

"And here, I see it's even more dark and impenetrable than that!"

Hyuga Hizashi made no secret of the disgust in his eyes, staring directly at the Main Family head, coldly saying: "Is this the Main Family? Similar to that scum Shimura Danzo, treating others as soulless tools..."

"Does your behavior conform to the Will of Fire?"

The Main Family head was stunned, a deep doubt in his eyes, tentatively saying: "Are you okay?"

The Will of Fire...

Is there truly anyone who believes in this?

Maybe it deceives small children, or Chunin and Genin who cannot reach the darkness and reality of the upper echelons...

Among ordinary Jonin, who doesn't chant the Will of Fire, yet is filled with their own concerns?

The world of adults is just like this.

In such a private place within the Hyuga Clan, the Main Family head considered Hyuga Hizashi might use Uchiha Aomi or Tsunade, Sarutobi Hiruzen, those high-ranking individuals aligned with Aomi, to pressure him.

But he never expected Hyuga Hizashi would use the Will of Fire as the opening argument...

Could the new Root have brainwashed this Branch member, truly making him believe in the Will of Fire...

"Hizashi, given your previous dedication and merits within the clan, I can let go of your rebellious words and actions this time, giving you a chance..."

The Main Family head looked at Hyuga Hizashi, and the Branch members behind him, burning with hatred and even a hint of excitement in their eyes. Even knowing the constraints of the Caged Bird, he still felt a deep fear within his bones.
