At just four years old, Ryosuke Hyuga trains relentlessly in the Hyuga clan courtyard, sweat dripping from his brow and determination burning in his eyes. Once a member of the oppressed branch family, Ryosuke was destined for the curse seal and a lifetime of servitude to the main family. But fate had other plans.

Reborn into the world of Naruto, Ryosuke awakened the Byakugan at birth — a feat unheard of even among the Hyuga. With his rapidly advancing eye techniques and innate talent, the clan hails him as a once-in-a-generation prodigy.

Hyuga Hiashi, the clan head who temporarily adopted him, watches his progress closely. The moment news arrives of his newborn daughter's birth, Hiashi makes a shocking declaration:
“From this day forward, you are the future husband of my daughter, Hinata. You will marry into the Hyuga main family.”

No cursed seal. No servitude.
Ryosuke will rise — not as a pawn, but as the shadow behind the Hyuga's future.

There's no actual story content in Chapter 98 because the author used it to announce updates for another one of their novels. The real Chapter 98 continues in Chapter 99. I'm still including this chapter here to keep the chapter numbering consistent. Otherwise, it might get confusing later—like when Chapter 65 on the page is actually Chapter 64 in the story.
