Starting with Hyuga, traversing countless heavens

Chief Hozuki praised himself for his cleverness, thinking, "As expected of me, I came up with such a brilliant plan. Not only did I not lose face, I also gained something substantial."

Looking at the evil adult before him, Hozuki Mangetsu suddenly felt his impure heart growing ever darker.

He suddenly had an idea: teammates and clansmen were just burdens; as long as he was strong enough, none of that mattered.

Seeing that things were not going well, the ANBU at the door notified the Mizukage's office. Uchiha Obito had no choice but to control Yagura Karatachi and send him to the Hozuki clan.

Regardless, Yagura Karatachi is the Mizukage. On the surface, he is at odds with the bloodline clans, but if a bloodline clan is actually attacked, he can't just stand by and watch; he has to at least see the live broadcast.

When Yagura Karatachi arrived, the Hozuki clan was cleaning the ground with the gate wide open. When the Hozuki clan chief saw Yagura Karatachi arrive, he pretended to greet him.

"Lord Mizukage, what brings you here?"

"We have received intelligence that members of the Hidden Cloud Village have broken into the Hozuki clan and are wreaking havoc. As the Mizukage, I cannot stand idly by."

It means, "You've already been attacked at my doorstep. I'm just here to watch the show and, incidentally, to save your life."

"The thieves, fearing the reputation of my Hozuki clan, have already fled. Lord Mizukage, you are overthinking it."

The Hozuki clan chief's meaning was clearer: "My family is powerful and influential; our reputation alone is enough to scare him away. I don't need your pretense."

Hyuga Hoshino leaves the Hozuki clan, releases his wooden clone, and takes control of Hozuki Gengetsu.

Hinata Hoshino stroked his chin, having roughly figured out the general chakra flow of the Water Transformation Technique, but the specific details still needed further refinement.

However, there is someone right in front of us who is skilled in water-based techniques, so we can't let him go to waste.

"Little Mustache, tell me the specific details of the Water Transformation Technique."

Hinata Hoshino took out his notebook, wrote things down one by one, and patted Hozuki Gengetsu on the shoulder.

"You are no longer of any use to me."

Using a storage scroll, Hozuki Gengetsu is put away. Entering the Kamui dimension, Hyuga Hoshino attempts to train in the Water Transformation Technique.

Recalling Hozuki Gengetsu's explanation and the chakra changes he had directly observed before, Hyuga Hoshino's right pinky finger changed.

The pinky finger moves with the muscles in a water-flowing state. Success! The most difficult first step has been completed. The next step is to gradually achieve full-body hydration.

As we all know, there are seven chakra natures in Naruto, and one of them can be water-based. Why hasn't anyone tried other types?

No, we did try it. The Earth Release: Earth Spear technique of Iwagakure (Hidden Rock Village) forms hard rock on the skin's surface to enhance defense.

The Lightning Release Chakra Mode of the Hidden Cloud Village is like a finished product of an attempt at the Lightning Transformation Secret Technique.

Hyuga Hoshino had absolutely no recollection of Fire Release and Wind Release. Was it because Fire Release and Wind Release were too lethal and he failed too many times? Or was there another reason?

But shouldn't lightning release be even more violent?

Wind Release is a specialty of Sunagakure, but Sunagakure also has Magnet Release and Puppet Technique.

Puppetry is an excellent way to save one's life; there's no need for the secret art of weathering to prolong one's existence.

Fire Release is an ancestral technique of the Uchiha clan, but they have the Sharingan and can pilot Gundams later on, so it seems they don't really need the cremation technique.

Furthermore, the Uchiha clan usually cremates their enemies.

It's not hard to understand why the Hidden Cloud Village, Hidden Stone Village, and Hidden Mist Village, relatively speaking, don't have many ways to survive, and most of them rely on a single attribute.

Three more chapters to come, stay tuned!

Chapter 71 Ice Maker, get

In Naruto, the five chakra natures have the following strengths and weaknesses: Earth beats Water, Water beats Fire, Fire beats Wind, Wind beats Lightning, and Lightning beats Earth.

Hyuga Hoshino's left hand flashed with an arc of electricity, which struck his right pinky finger. His right hand went numb, and he exited the water-like state.

Water and thunder are not supposed to be incompatible, so why can thunder break the water-transforming technique?

Shaking his numb right hand, Hyuga Hoshino continued experimenting with the water-transformation technique. After a day and a night, he had only managed to water-transform his entire right hand. Unexpectedly, it was quite difficult, so Hyuga Hoshino temporarily gave up his training.

The purpose of this trip to Kirigakure is not yet complete; we'll discuss it another time. Hyuga Hoshino lightly pressed his temples; another matter had been added to his list.

Sage Mode becomes the norm, chakra levels increase, Tenseigan and Rinnegan levels increase, research into bloodline limits continues, and experiments with Impure World Reincarnation are conducted. Ah, the joy of being busy.

Kirigakure was already in chaos, and urban legends of coffin-carrying among ordinary ninjas and villagers were born.

Every night, a group of five people with bronze skin would wander through the village carrying a coffin and dancing joyfully.

In particular, the bedroom of underage girls is the place they yearn for most.

Mei Terumi woke up in the middle of the night. No, who spread this rumor? Are they crazy?

The Kaguya clan and the Yuki clan have their clan territories outside Kirigakure. When the Kaguya clan goes berserk, they cannot distinguish between friend and foe.

The Snow Clan lives in an exceptionally cold region. Kirigakure is already damp and prone to rheumatism, and the cold only exacerbates the problem; it's not like everyone here suffers from chronic leg pain.

The Snow Clan is not yet extinct, but the clan leader, with foresight, has sent some clansmen away to integrate into the ordinary civilian population of the Land of Water.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain how Haku's mother managed to leave Kirigakure and escape to a small village while being pursued by the Hidden Mist Village's ANBU.

Hyuga Hoshino activated his Byakugan, using his natural energy perception to aimlessly search the outskirts of Kirigakure.

The Hozuki clan's previous experience made Hyuga Hoshino realize that not all bloodline clans have an alarmingly high chance of awakening their bloodlines, like the Uchiha clan.

Instead of trying your luck with the Snow Clan, it's better to come directly to Bai.

"Kill them! Kill those monsters!"

"Kill them."

"Yes, kill them."

Hinata Hoshino watched from afar as a group of villagers, carrying farm tools, surrounded a mother and daughter.

However, no one dared to step forward; they simply stood around, shouting incessantly.

It must be Bai, the mother and daughter. Bai's father, seeing that no one around dared to make a move, picked up a hoe and approached them.

Bai's mother looked at Bai's father with a sharp gaze, and the man paused in his steps.

Seemingly frightened and embarrassed, he blushed and raised the hoe, hitting Bai's mother with it. She felt dizzy.

Hyuga Hoshino smiled, his whites instantly turning bloodshot, and the kaleidoscope in his eyes disappeared.

Eye Technique: True Illusion

Under the Mangekyou Sharingan, Haku's mind was highly focused, and he finally broke through his limits, awakening Ice Release.

There should be hope for them, mother and daughter. After all, Hyuga Hoshino isn't some kind of monster, so we should try to save them if we can.

Corpse beetle, Pure Vision Agama, centipede, human-faced owl, and Hozuki clan ninja: Ah, yes, yes, our lives are not lives.

In villages where snow falls year-round, temperatures are extremely low. As the white snow awakens, the temperature drops drastically within a hundred meters of the white snow.

The villager, wrapped in a tattered cotton-padded coat, couldn't help but shiver.

Their eyes grew increasingly terrified as they looked at Bai, their hands trembling as they gripped the farm tools. Swallowing hard, they still raised the tools and smashed them down on Bai and her daughter.

"click"

The farm tools were covered in solid ice, which spread to the hands that held them. Before they could react, the villagers were frozen into ice sculptures.

Bai's father managed to drop his farm tools in time, thus avoiding being covered by the ice.

Seeing the miserable state of his fellow villagers, he used both hands and feet to turn backward, feeling the cold behind him. When he looked up, he saw it was their village chief.

The ice sculptures were so lifelike that they added a touch of yellow to the snow, but a strange odor permeated the air, which terrified him.

After a moment of confusion, he knelt down and begged for mercy.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Bai, I'm your father, you can't... Ah!"

There was only time for a scream before another ice sculpture took shape.

“Mother, Mother! You can’t abandon me, you can’t leave Bai, you’re Bai’s only family left. Mother… um, um, um…”

Bai shook her mother, who had fainted at some point, and did not respond. Bai lay on her body and wept.

A hand landed on Bai's head, and Bai felt warmth from above, a warmth he had only ever felt from his mother.

"You want to save her?"

Haku raised his head, like an abandoned little animal, looking at Hinata Hoshino with tears in his eyes. At that moment, Haku seemed to see a soft-hearted god.

"May I?"

With the use of the Palm Healing Technique, Hyuga Hoshino's hand glowed with a green light. Upon examination, it was discovered that Haku's mother had fallen into a coma due to excessive blood loss from her injuries.

The Palm Cultivation Technique stops bleeding and stimulates cell self-healing. The wound scabs over and stops bleeding.

"Yes, but he has lost too much blood. He can be saved."

Haku, his face flushed with excitement, began to kowtow. Hyuga Hoshino felt a pang of guilt once more, finally understanding Orochimaru's penchant for kidnapping. He understood Orochimaru, and then transcended him.

"Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir."

"Little girl, do you want to understand the meaning of life?"

The main god, Hinata Hoshino, smiled and spoke. Shiro raised his head and nodded heavily, appearing somewhat dazed from the force.

"Follow."

Hinata Hoshino picked up Haku's mother and headed towards the nearest town. Haku followed closely behind, enduring the freezing snow and exhaustion he had just expended, yet he persevered.

Hyuga Hoshino thought he was a promising talent. He could become the white protector of Hyuga Miesei, the Lord of Hyuga Palace.

It's cold now, so we can't see how white will be used. In a few months, when it gets warmer, that'll be the time for her ice maker to make its debut. Anyway, ice maker, got it.

When Haku used Ice Release earlier, Hyuga Hoshino had already observed that if it weren't for the stimulation of the Mangekyou Sharingan, Haku might have awakened after his mother's death.

A tremendous mental shock? Although it was faint, I could still sense the aura of Yin Release.

Therefore, Ice Release is composed of Water, Wind, and Yin Release. Ice Crystal Mirror and other Ice Release ninjutsu have hallucinogenic and shaping effects, which are somewhat similar to the characteristics of Yin Release.

As expected, the Ice Release technique has immense potential.

Noticing that Haku was about to faint, Hyuga Hoshino released his chakra, which transformed into a large hand, lifted Haku up, and placed him on his shoulder.

After absorbing the energy of the star, Hyuga Hoshino can shape his chakra by releasing it externally, but the strength is not as great as Susanoo.

Haku wrapped his arms around Hinata Hoshino's neck and nuzzled him. Hinata Hoshino smiled. Interesting. A new bond has been formed.

Upon arriving in town, they booked two rooms and asked Bai to take care of her mother.

Although Hinata Hoshino loves big cars, he's not an animal and has some self-control.
