"En, there's something I want to talk to you about." After leaving Orochimaru's research facility, Asana suddenly said in a serious tone.
"What is it?" Uchiha En asked.
After confirming they were alone, Asana activated her Byakugan.
Seeing Asana's Byakugan, Uchiha En's expression instantly turned serious.
At the center of Asana's eye, the ordinary white pupil, which was identical to those of all other members of the Hyuga Clan, had turned blue. Around the pupil, circles of arc-like energy continuously emanated.
This appearance was extremely similar to how Ōtsutsuki Toneri looked after activating the Tenseigan.
"En, that day..." Asana then explained to Uchiha En the reason for the change in her Byakugan, and also told him that she had acquired two special abilities.
That's right, two, not one. Asana had kept some things hidden from Orochimaru; the only person she could trust 100% was Uchiha En.
Asana had only told Orochimaru that she possessed the ability to control puppets, but in reality, Asana had also gained another ability: control over attraction and repulsion.
This ability was similar to the power of the Deva Path, one of the Outer Paths of the Rinnegan, but it was different.
The Tenseigan's attractive force was stronger than its repulsive force. With a thought, Asana could uproot a large tree and pull it toward her, but the repulsive force could not repel most attacks like the Deva Path; it could only push away Ninjutsu that were small in scale and low in power.
In the original work, the Tenseigan's attractive force was also relatively strong; Toneri once used the Tenseigan's attractive force to control the trajectory of a celestial body.
"Asana, after your Byakugan evolved, did you feel any discomfort?"
Asana shook her head and replied, "No, ever since I activated these eyes, I've felt very comfortable. Even the Caged Bird Seal has been somewhat weakened. The Caged Bird Seal can no longer destroy my nerves and kill me directly."
Uchiha En's eyes lit up upon hearing this. According to Asana, as long as her Byakugan continued to evolve and became the Tenseigan, the Caged Bird Seal would likely be undone.
Thinking of this, Uchiha En decided to tell Asana a few things.
Thus, Uchiha En activated his Mangekyo Sharingan. Asana had long heard Uchiha En mention that he had activated the Mangekyo, but this was the first time she had seen the full appearance of Uchiha En's Mangekyo.
"Is this the Mangekyo Sharingan? The pattern in the pupil looks much more complicated."
"It's not just the pattern. Compared to the Three Tomoe, the Mangekyo's insight, dynamic vision, and Eye power are all much stronger. It also comes with two unique Dojutsu of its own."
"Unique Dojutsu? Are they like my puppet control and attraction/repulsion abilities?"
"Actually, it's not quite the same. Yours aren't Dojutsu; they are the basic functions after your eyes evolved. Your eyes are currently likely in the preliminary stage of the Tenseigan. If you can obtain Otsutsuki Hagoromo's Chakra and undergo a few more awakenings, you will truly unlock the Tenseigan."
"Tenseigan? What is that?" Asana asked, looking confused.
"That requires starting from when I was taken away by that pale guy in the Land of Bears. At that time, I met Uchiha Madara."
"Uchiha Madara? The Uchiha Madara who founded the village with the First Hokage? Didn't he die long ago?" Asana couldn't help but exclaim.
"He didn't die. That battle back then was merely a scheme Madara used against Senju Hashirama." Uchiha En then told Asana the details and aftermath of the battle at the Valley of the End, as well as the two forbidden Dojutsu of the Uchiha Clan, Izanagi and Izanami.
After listening, Asana's expression shifted several times before she finally let out a long sigh: "Sigh! I never expected Uchiha Madara to have secretly prepared so much. But why would Uchiha Madara do this?"
"This is the main point I'm going to talk about next, and you could say it's the biggest secret in the entire Ninja World."
