"So, the so-called Tenseigan is actually your trump card against your mother," Yukika said, holding Kaguya's slender waist, standing in midair and calmly looking at Hamura.
"This is the power of the Otsutsuki clan. We sacrifice everything to maintain the world's balance," Hamura replied firmly.
"He says it's for the world's balance," Yukika sneered, hugging Kaguya's arm tightly. "You know nothing about power, Otsutsuki—not even your mother."
Even now, Hamura likely still believed Kaguya was a cursed woman bringing misfortune to the world, a tyrant aiming to rule the ninja world through the Infinite Tsukuyomi. He probably never intended to communicate with Kaguya at all.
"Your brother once said that giving chakra to others was meant to help them understand each other better—to know others' thoughts. But your chakra came from Kaguya, yet you never understood her feelings. Why pretend otherwise?"
"Using chakra as a bridge for communication? None of you ever really tried it. Isn't that ironic?"
Yukika's cold laugh carried no falsehood. The Will of the Ninja creed was to pass on chakra so people could communicate, but the Sage of Six Paths never did that himself. So what was the point of giving chakra to everyone?
"Whatever you say, today I will sacrifice my people to stop you from leaving," Hamura said stiffly, despite his bruised ego.
He never thought he was wrong. In his and his brother's eyes, their stance was righteous. Sacrificing family for the greater good was justified.
Looking at her child, Kaguya's eyes filled with disappointment. Even now, they still didn't believe they were wrong. She feared that even if she told them the Otsutsuki clan would return, they'd dismiss it as an excuse to evade guilt.
The Golden Wheel Tenseigan—
Yukika stayed calm. He knew too well how many people could sacrifice their loved ones for their so-called greater good. Talking to people like that was pointless.
For such people, the best punishment was to let them face endless scorn and see their pride shattered.
When ninjas fought the Otsutsuki clan, they'd realize how narrow-minded they'd been.
Losing interest in talking, Yukika turned to the enormous Golden Wheel Tenseigan. Though it looked like a golden wheel, it was entirely made of Byakugan, holding immense energy.
"Thanks for gathering all the Byakugan—it saves me a lot of trouble," Yukika smiled slightly, letting go of Kaguya and walking forward alone.
The Tenseigan—
In the original, it was on par with the Rinnegan but required far harsher conditions to awaken—not just bloodline, but also a huge number of Byakugan to sustain it. The Otsutsuki clan on the moon had multiplied for a thousand years, likely outnumbering the Hyuga clan many times over. Only that scale could sustain the Tenseigan's massive energy.
If not for Yukika's appearance, this would have powered the moon for ages.
Like the Rinnegan, the Tenseigan controlled gravity and repulsion but was more focused on offense and destruction.
How dare he approach it?
Hamura sneered. If Yukika dodged, it would take some effort to hit him, but he hadn't expected this kid to approach on his own. Without the bloodline of the Byakugan progenitor, anyone would be affected by the Tenseigan's power.
Without investigating, Yukika attacked—too naive.
With a wave of his palm, the Golden Wheel Tenseigan's light shot straight at Yukika. But to Hamura's shock, the light didn't absorb Yukika's power—instead, Yukika absorbed it!
The opposite effect.
"I told you, you know nothing of power," Yukika calmly accepted the baptism of the Golden Wheel Tenseigan, while his bloodline underwent transformation.
Energy absorption—just one of the Hougyoku's functions.
The Hougyoku boosts the user's power according to their desires. As long as you believe, it will keep evolving. But you can't doubt the power or the world. In the original, Aizen never stopped evolving but couldn't imagine the peaks beyond, which led to his downfall. When the Hougyoku stopped evolving, it began sealing.
But Yukika's Hougyoku was a replica, completely merged with him, erasing its own will. Though limited in reaching beyond worlds, it gained new powers—like energy absorption and amplification.
In simple terms, after absorbing the Golden Wheel Tenseigan's power, the Hougyoku would strengthen it, purify Yukika's bloodline, and even awaken the purest Byakugan, evolving into the Tenseigan.
Undoubtedly Yukika's greatest weapon.
Any power could be absorbed and strengthened—a terrifying force.
"How can this be?" Hamura, creator of the Golden Wheel Tenseigan, immediately felt something wrong. The Tenseigan's power kept dwindling—and at an alarming rate!
Why was this happening?
It was the power he sacrificed his whole clan for!
"You know nothing of power..." Remembering Yukika's words, Hamura suddenly understood something. How could an ordinary person tear apart the Six Paths Planetary Devastation alone? Even the Tenseigan was no match.
"This power—it's yours now. Not too hard to control," Yukika said, as the golden light dimmed and the Byakugan crumbled into ashes. Yukika closed his eyes, feeling the change. The Hougyoku had fully integrated the power, and Yukika sensed something new in his eyes.
In the original, the Tenseigan needed a maturation period, but for Yukika, that meant nothing. He could instantly master it.
Suddenly opening his eyes, blue light shot to the heavens, his powerful chakra erupting. A new Tenseigan Chakra Mode appeared. But unlike the Otsutsuki's, Yukika's eyes shone with golden light, as dazzling as the sun. The chakra mode wasn't purely forgiving in color but a deep ink-green, matching his crystalline hue.
"Let's go. Your brother is still waiting below," Yukika said softly, grabbing Hamura's spirit form.
"Ungrateful child, take a good look—you don't know what the true Otsutsuki clan is."
Trembling, Yukika and Kaguya left the moon, heading back to Earth. They flew fast and soon arrived under the vanished God Tree. The people of the ninja world, village leaders and civilians alike, had all gathered.
"Perfect timing," Yukika smiled, watching the rising sun. "Since everyone is here—"
"I, Senju Yukika, hereby announce the final Five Kage Summit begins now. After today, there will be no Five Kage, no concept of ninja villages, and no barriers between villages. True unity and peace need only one nation—God's Kingdom!"
