Chapter 94 Hinata's Only Use

Chapter 95 Hinata's Only Use

"But if that happens, won't those branch family ninjas lose their eye powers and go blind?"

One elder couldn't help but show a look of pity, while the elders beside him wore expressions of sorrow and compassion, sighing in unison:

"There's nothing we can do about it!"

"The situation in the village is so tense right now, we desperately need strong combat power to turn the tide!"

"And even if they don't have white eyes anymore, we can still transplant ordinary people's eyes into them!"

"Although our combat capabilities have been greatly affected, it definitely won't disrupt our normal lives!"

"These sacrifices were all made for the village, and the village will forever remember their contributions!"

"Everything is for the village!"

"Indeed, wherever Ye Wu goes, his will never ceases; this is his very essence!"

Amidst everyone's chatter, the "Ten-Sengan" experiment plan was officially finalized.

"So, who should be the test subject—no, who should be the first to shoulder the hopes of all the Hyuga clan members?"

Everyone shut up again.

They would certainly be willing to enjoy the physical enhancements brought by the "Tenseigan," but before the experimental results came out, none of them were willing to take any risks for it.

After exchanging glances for a moment, someone immediately suggested:

"Hinata is now the acting head of the Hyuga clan, so it is most appropriate for her to bear the expectations of all the Hyuga clan members."

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up, and they all expressed their agreement.

"Ah, yes, yes, Hinata is currently the most respected person, so it would be perfect for her to be the first user of the Tenseigan."

"Such a golden opportunity for evolution should naturally be enjoyed by the acting patriarch first."

But dissenting voices immediately followed.

"But Hinata is too young; she's not fully developed yet! Using her eyes for experiments—no, using her eyes to begin evolution—isn't that too risky?"

"But besides Hinata, do you have any other candidates you could use?"

The person asking the question immediately had nothing to say.

There are many children of marriageable age in the Hyuga clan, but none of the main family children are of marriageable age!

The main branch of the family was already very small, and Orochimaru had targeted and killed off a group of them. Now, those who remain are all old guys.

"Actually, if we use a qualitative change in eye power to drive the evolution of the Byakugan, then the eyes of the branch family might not necessarily be unable to synthesize the Tenseigan!"

"Actually, Neji is quite good. Although he is from a branch family, he is a genius ninja. Since it's just an experiment, we might as well let him try it out first."

"Nonsense!" someone immediately objected vehemently, "How can you use a branch family to evolve the Byakugan?"

"You know perfectly well how much the divided family hates the main family!"

"If the evolution fails, it's fine; we'll just lose some disdain from the branch families."

"But what if it succeeds?"

"Who can guess what terrible things this branch family, possessing the power of 'in the blink of an eye,' might do?"

Have you considered the consequences?

"If Hizashi were still alive, perhaps he could be used to keep him in check, but now that Hizashi is dead, Neji is definitely not trustworthy!"

The person who made the suggestion was dissatisfied and argued:

"Isn't the 'Caged Bird Seal' still there?"

"If any members of the branch family dare to disobey, why not just punish them with a curse?"

"Foolish!" The elders were even angrier, directly rebuking him, "Who knows if the 'Caged Bird Seal' will still be effective once the Byakugan evolves into the Tenseigan?"

"Everything in the ninja world is built on chakra. Under the influence of powerful chakra, no secret technique is safe!"

"Are you betting that the 'Caged Bird' curse won't wear off in the blink of an eye?"

"We can't take that risk!"

"We really can't take that risk. It looks like Hinata is the only option left."

The person who made the suggestion nodded silently, agreeing with the conclusion, but then asked with concern:

"But this kind of thing is a bit dangerous, would Hinata be willing?"

"Why wouldn't you want to?"

Everyone glared angrily at the elder who always disagreed, and shouted sternly:

"As the acting clan leader, you should naturally set an example!"

"A clan leader is someone who should bear responsibility. How can they shirk their duties based on their own likes or dislikes?"

"Besides, Hinata-san is so timid and doesn't have much talent in ninjas. What use is she other than serving her clan?"

Seeing that he had angered everyone, the elder quickly shut his mouth and lowered his head, not daring to say another word.

Seeing the tension rising in everyone's words, an elder stepped in to smooth things over:

"Besides, being young isn't without its advantages; it means greater potential and malleability. At worst, we can use medication to accelerate its development."

"What the village needs is a pair of powerful eyes; as to whose eyes those eyes are, that's not really important."

Having understood the meaning behind those words, all the clan elders stuck out their tongues and licked their chapped lips, their hearts filled with excitement.

Finally, after heated discussions, all the clan elders unanimously agreed and passed a resolution to begin the evolution experiment of the "Tenseigan," with Acting Clan Chief Hinata as the vessel.

After the discussion was completed, the elders of the main family came to find Hinata.

Hinata was hiding at home, hugging her knees and crying secretly. When she saw everyone arrive, she quickly wiped away her tears and ran out to greet them.

"Um—any news about my father and sister?"

Seeing Hinata's timid and hesitant appearance, the elders of the main family couldn't help but frown.

The leading elder bowed respectfully and said:

"Please rest assured, young lady. The person who took the clan leader and Hanabi away was also a Byakugan ninja, likely a power exclusive to the clan leader. The clan leader and Hanabi will be in no danger."

"But why haven't they come back yet?" Hinata asked anxiously.

"This—." The elders of the main family were also somewhat anxious about this, feeling that there seemed to be something wrong with everyone's judgment, but they could not say it at this moment, lest they add pressure to Hinata.

So the elder of the clan smiled and reassured them:

"Perhaps something important has held him up!"

"Perhaps she's been training in a secluded place. Maybe when we meet again, Chief Hiashi will have greatly improved in strength!"

"Let's put those things aside for now. We've come to see you, sister, because we have something important to discuss with you."

It was supposed to be a discussion, but Hinata didn't understand anything at the moment, and her personality was timid, so she could only agree to whatever the elders said.

After dealing with Hinata, the elders of the main clan surrounded her and placed her in the position of clan leader. Then, they secretly invited a group of medical ninjas to connect various instruments and equipment to Hinata's body to record relevant data at any time.

Finally, they summoned a group of branch family ninjas and had them wait outside the hall, preparing to have them dedicate their eye power to Hinata one by one.

The first one to be called into the hall was Hyuga Neji.

The reason for choosing him is partly because he is currently weak, just a student at the Ninja Academy, at best a Genin.

The village is currently engaged in a fierce battle with an enemy, and every Jonin is a valuable fighting force that cannot be wasted. Therefore, we have to start by testing on the Genin to accumulate more experience and data.

On the other hand, after careful study, the elders unanimously concluded that the quality of pupil power should be more important than the quantity in influencing the evolution of the White Eye.

A pair of pure white eyes should be more effective than mixed white eyes.

So how do you determine if the whites of a pair of eyes are pure?

Of course, it depends on how close or distant the relationship is with the main family.

Neji Hyuga's father, Hizashi Hyuga, and the current clan leader, Hiashi Hyuga, were twin brothers, so their bloodline was definitely the closest to Hinata's.

If it weren't for the fact that he was from a branch family, the purity of his Byakugan would probably surpass that of Hinata Hyuga.

Therefore, using his eye roll as the first attempt is the most appropriate thing to do.
