Toneri chased after Neji and I.

At the same time, there were many masked men riding on large black birds. These were Sheren's subordinates.

"Ningji, put me down."

Facing so many enemies, if I keep holding on to them I will just become their target.

Anyway, we are already far away from the wedding scene, so there is no need to worry about affecting innocent people if we stop here to fight.

Neji put me down, "Asaro, can you fly?"

The enemy has occupied the sky, and we are at a huge disadvantage fighting on the ground, so we must fight for air supremacy.

"I use Susanoo. How about you?"

"I used Hamura's chakra to stimulate the Byakugan, and I have discovered a new ability in the past few days."

"Flying ability?"

"Rather than flying, it's more like repulsion. As long as you change the attraction between you and the ground to repulsion, you can float in the air."

I was so happy that I was able to explore and master this level in just a few days. "You are really worthy of being Neji!"

The mint-colored giant rose from the ground, and I was suspended in the heart of Susanoo. Neji, repelled by the gravity of the ground, stood beside me.

The giant held a short sword that looked almost exactly like White Fang's and swung it down fiercely. A large group of enemies in the air were wiped out, while the other group was dealt with by Neji's Kaiten.

His Kaiten has a larger range, faster rotation, and stronger defense.

After dealing with the miscellaneous soldiers, we attacked Sheren together.

The spiritual sword White Fang in Susanoo's hand swung out an aurora-like afterimage. At the same time, I noticed that visible chakra condensed on Neji's palm - the faint blue color proved that the power of the Eight Trigrams Sixty-four Palms he was using at this time was definitely more powerful than before.

"Hmph..." Toneri did not dodge, and seemed to be very confident in his own strength. He raised his hand towards us: "The chakra of Hamura and the princess of Uchiha... all belong to me."

His palms were also covered with a layer of chakra visible to the naked eye, which was surprisingly similar in color to my Susanoo.

Two mint green chakra balls shot towards us. With Naruto's Rasengan in front, this kind of chakra "ball" was enough to make people 100% alert and vigilant.

Susanoo is huge, so it would be difficult to dodge it. I was ready to cut it into pieces with one knife, while Neji dodged in the air and found that the mint-colored light ball was chasing him closely, with a built-in locking and pursuit function.

The spiritual sword White Fang came into contact with the chakra ball that was flying towards me, but to my surprise, Susanoo not only failed to cut it off, but was instead blocked by its mint-colored chakra, which spread along the tip of the sword all the way to my arm, and then went straight to my heart.

The giant formed by the huge chakra released began to melt like ice and snow under the sun. Even though I tried my best to resist, I could not stop Susanoo from being swallowed.

I heard Neji's anxious voice: "Asaro!"

At last the mint light enveloped me—

My eyes went dark and I knew nothing.

……

When I woke up again, I saw a strange ceiling.

I was startled and subconsciously wanted to turn over and sit up to take pre-battle alert, but I realized belatedly that my whole body was too heavy to move.

It was like sleep paralysis. My consciousness was clearly clear, but I couldn't feel my body and couldn't move.

My heart sank, and I began to think of the worst-case scenario—was I paralyzed? Was I a vegetable?

Just as I was trying to find out how many parts of my body could move freely, someone beside me said, "You're awake."

My eyeballs can still move and if I try hard, I can flex and extend my fingers with difficulty.

I rolled my eyes to look in the direction of the voice, and it was indeed Sheren.

"I have taken away all your chakra." Sheren said calmly, which shocked me. "So you are very weak now. It will take at least two or three days to recover."

Deprived me of my chakra?

That mint ball of light he emits?

What about Neji? How is Neji?

Chakra includes mental power and physical strength. If all of it is deprived, it would be equivalent to having both mental power and physical strength cleared out in an instant. Since I was unconscious, if Neci was hit, the situation would not be much better.

But he needs chakra to maintain the "repulsion" to stay high in the air. If he falls suddenly, will anyone catch him?

Toneri's strength is beyond my imagination. Compared with ordinary ninjas, his methods are almost like those of an immortal.

However, as long as enough intelligence is collected, even immortals will have weaknesses that can be defeated.

At least now, since I'm lucky enough to have survived, I know that one of his abilities is flying - maybe like Neji, he uses repulsion, and his second ability is that he can instantly separate all of a person's chakra.

If he took me to his base, Shikamaru would be able to track down Toneri's hiding place using the locator placed on the inside of my clothes.

After I recover, I can also look for the location of the Samsara Eye next to Toneri.

——Except for the fact that Sheren's intelligence was much more powerful than expected, all other developments did not deviate too far from the plan.

But Neji...

Shikamaru, Gaara, Naruto, Sai, Sakura, Tenten...

Anyone is fine, please, make sure to get there in time to catch him!

I still have a lot of information to collect, but I don't even have the energy to speak.

"You have exceeded my expectations, Princess of the Uchiha," Toneri said, "I thought you only had the power of the Sharingan, but after bringing you back, I checked and found that your eyes were also evolving."

My eyes?

Evolving?

"also"?

"The Rinnegan - that is the name of the eyes of your Uchiha clan that are closest to the Eye of the Ancestor. Just like the Samsara Eye, even if the conditions for opening the eyes are met, it is often necessary to wait for a considerable period of time so that the eyes can slowly grow, move, and then descend..."

Toneri seemed to be in a good mood, "My Samsara Eye is about to open, and your Rinnegan is also slowly awakening. Our union will give birth to the most powerful and nearly perfect offspring."

"..."

No matter how shocked I was by the information revealed in his words, I didn't have the energy to give any response.

Rather than the Rinnegan or Samsaragan, I just want to know where Neji is now. How is Neji doing?

Toneri didn't care about my silence. He looked down at me and said, "You disappointed me before, Uchiha Princess. You chose the wrong person... Between me and that man, you should have chosen me. But your eyes gave me a surprise. I am willing to forgive your small mistake."

"..."

Intelligence number three: This guy... is undoubtedly an egomaniac.

I closed my eyes, put all the strength from opening my eyes and curling my fingertips into the vocal part, and said with all my strength: "Where... is he?"

"what?"

But speaking once exhausted the little strength I had barely recovered, and I was speechless again.

"You mean that inferior one? I could have killed him, but taking you away was more important. I left him alone, but he lost his chakra and fell from such a height, so he must have died."

"!"

"It seems that the line on Earth has become corrupted... The males of the Hyuga clan are no better than this."

"……point……"

"what?"

"Ningji is... a branch family..."

If Neji heard someone say that he was the head of the clan, he would be very angry.

He hated the fact that he came from a branch family, but he also hated being seen as the main family. Ultimately, what he hated most was the rule that divided people's status based solely on their birth.

I tried my best to speak, and I felt my head starting to swell and ache, "You... aren't you too?"

"That's all in the past." Toneri said proudly, "Now, I am the most legitimate... and only successor of the Otsutsuki clan. And you will be my bride."
