A space of ice and snow, with snowflakes dancing.
A black portal appeared.
Izayoi's figure flew out from within.
As soon as he appeared, Izayoi turned into an ice sculpture, his entire body encased in a massive blue block of ice.
Less than a second later, a cracking sound rang out.
After shattering the ice, Izayoi looked around the vast, white, snowy space, his brow slightly furrowed. "The air is so cold. The temperature here is many times lower than in the Land of Iron. Is this one of Kaguya Otsutsuki's Other Dimensions in Ame-no-Minakanushi?"
After awakening the Tenseigan, which allowed him to use Space-Time Portals that were more convenient and powerful than Kamui and the Great Sun Spirit, Izayoi no longer needed the Human Puppet, Danzo Shimura, to help him search for Other Dimensions.
He only needed to enter the Space-Time Passage of Yomotsu Hirasaka to sense the existence of other Other Dimensions.
It was then that Izayoi realized he had vastly underestimated this world.
The number of Other Dimensions in this world was simply too great.
These Other Dimensions were like curved doors, which could only be opened with Space-Time power.
However, most of what lay behind these doors were dark Other Dimensions. An ice and snow space with a light source and elements was extremely rare.
There were also many powerful Other Dimensions connected to the real world, and these doors could be found throughout the Shinobi World.
Ryuchi Cave, Sage Body, and Shikkotsu Forest were all such existences.
Izayoi had awakened the Tenseigan at the beginning of the year and could use Yomotsu Hirasaka that same day.
In the past half year, he had been to many Other Dimensions and had suffered a great loss once.
Because he had accidentally entered a super-gravity space, even he was pressed to the ground by the terrifying gravity. It took him a long time to adapt to the gravity in that Other Dimension before he could stand and walk with difficulty.
At that moment, Izayoi, who possessed Six Paths Level combat power, had his arrogance shattered.
His inflated ego instantly returned to normal.
Even after awakening the Tenseigan, he had only taken a big step forward in the realm of Other Dimensions.
In the Perk list ranking, the Tenseigan was also ranked behind the Otsutsuki Bloodline (Rainbow).
He still had a long way to go before transcending this world.
Besides the super-gravity space, this ice and snow space was the second Other Dimension that had caught Izayoi off guard, albeit only for a moment.
Izayoi strongly suspected that this ice and snow space was also one of Kaguya Otsutsuki's Other Dimensions.
Soon, Izayoi got his answer.
Without even a hand seal, Izayoi instantly activated Sage of Six Paths Mode and released his unique perception that could capture all life fluctuations. He quickly confirmed that this was a lifeless Other Dimension.
However, Izayoi did not leave immediately. Instead, he narrowed his eyes slightly.
In an instant, from Izayoi's perspective, a massive golden clock appeared out of thin air.
The hour, minute, and second hands spun rapidly.
But they were not turning clockwise; they were turning counter-clockwise.
Then, circular images flew out from inside the golden clock, rapidly expanding and passing through Izayoi's body.
The ice and snow scenery around him instantly underwent drastic changes.
Just a moment ago, it was heavy snow, but the next second the snow suddenly stopped, and then the second after that, the snow was flying again, repeating in a cycle...
The hands of the golden clock spun rapidly. At first, the speed was still relatively normal, but in less than ten seconds, they had turned into afterimages that were completely undetectable to the naked eye.
More and more images flew out from inside.
The scene of the ice and snow space was also changing rapidly.
Who knows how long passed, until even someone as strong as Izayoi felt his eyes growing tired. As an image passed through him, three figures suddenly appeared in the ice and snow space.
Izayoi immediately stopped the consumption of Eye Power and looked at the three people in the ice and snow space, his eyelids trembling slightly.
These three were one woman and two men, all wearing white robes with horns on their heads, pure white eyes, and purple ripple eyes. They were Kaguya Otsutsuki, Hagoromo Otsutsuki, and Hamura Otsutsuki, the mother and her two sons.
At this time, the three of them were engaged in a fierce battle.
The two brothers surrounded and attacked their mother, causing the world to collapse and the earth to crack.
With a casual strike, Kaguya Otsutsuki unleashed a Sage Art fist that shook the heavens and the earth. Its power was so great that two years ago, Izayoi probably only had the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion to contend with it.
However, such a Sage Art fist was easily repelled by Hagoromo Otsutsuki, who simply transformed the Sage's Staff in his hand into a strange-shaped black longsword and defeated the Kekkei Mōra level Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack with a single strike.
"Divine Sword of Heaven: Ame-no-Murakumo, is the principle of this divine artifact the same as the Sage's Staff?"
Witnessing this scene with his own eyes, Izayoi muttered with a somewhat solemn expression, "He actually mastered it before becoming the Ten-Tails. It seems I still underestimated this ancestor of shinobi..."
Although it was a recreation of a past scene, Izayoi's Tenseigan could see that Hagoromo Otsutsuki's strike just now contained a very special and powerful force.
It was at least on the same level as Kekkei Mōra, otherwise it would have been impossible to block a Kekkei Mōra level Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack so easily.
The original work explained Ame-no-Murakumo as a sword of the heart that could attach one's will to it.
The stronger the user's will, the greater the power of this sword.
As long as the will was strong enough, this sword was theoretically omnipotent. Creating and destroying the world were just a thought away, which is why the full name of the sword of the heart was... the Sword of Wishes.
In the final battle of the original story, Uchiha Obito, who was able to suppress the Ten-Tails' will and regain control of his body through sheer determination, lost because his dream of becoming Hokage wasn't strong enough, causing the Sword of Nunoboko to automatically shatter, and he was defeated by Naruto and Sasuke, who only had Super Kage level power.
Kaguya Otsutsuki and her two sons fought in the ice dimension for nearly half an hour.
After realizing she couldn't use the ice element to counter her two brothers, Kaguya Otsutsuki used Ame-no-Minakanushi again, and the three of them vanished from the ice dimension.
The golden clock didn't continue to spin counterclockwise either, but slowly disappeared. The chaotic ice landscape, ravaged by Kaguya Otsutsuki and her two sons, instantly returned to its original state.
It was as if everything that had just happened was merely an illusion.
And in fact, this was something that had indeed happened in the ice dimension.
However, the time span was a thousand years.
In other words, Izayoi had just been watching the battle between the Progenitor of Chakra and the Founder of Ninjutsu from a thousand years ago.
This was one of Izayoi's Rinne-Tenseigan's Exclusive Eye Techniques... Ame-no-Tokotachi.
The names of eye techniques in the Naruto world are either the names of gods, the weapons of gods, or a collective term for multiple gods.
For example, Uchiha Obito and Hinata's Kamui directly means "god."
And Shisui Uchiha's Kotoamatsukami is a collective term for five gods, also known as... the Five Pillar Gods.
These Five Pillar Gods are Ame-no-Minakanushi, Takami-Musubi, Kami-Musubi, Umashi-Ashikabi-Hikoji, and... Ame-no-Tokotachi.
Among them, Ame-no-Tokotachi is also known as the Eternal God and the God of Time.
The names of eye techniques in the Naruto world do not necessarily correspond to the abilities of those gods.
However, Izayoi, who awakened Ame-no-Tokotachi, did gain some control over the power of time.
The lie he told Madara Uchiha two years ago was surprisingly made true by Izayoi.
His eyes could truly see the past now.
Currently, Izayoi's left eye can not only see the past of a scene but also the past of living beings.
The time span for scenes is terrifyingly long, and the Eye Power consumption is extremely low.
Izayoi only felt slightly tired after watching the thousand-year-old battle.
When viewing the past of living beings, he can see up to the moment of their birth. The consumption is much greater than for scenes, but for Izayoi, this consumption is still negligible.
Ame-no-Tokotachi was an ability Izayoi awakened recently, and it might be an ability that his eyes just developed.
It was from using this ability frequently during this time that Izayoi almost developed Rinne-Tenseigan myopia, often seeing past reflections of Hinata and the other girls.
Ame-no-Tokotachi in the left eye is the eye that can see the past.
And Ame-no-Tokotachi in the right eye is naturally the eye that can see the future.
However, unlike the ease of viewing the past, the Eye Power required for Izayoi to see the future is dozens, or even over a hundred times greater than viewing the past.
This is because the past is something that has already happened, and reviewing it is as easy as flipping through a book.
In contrast, the future is a blank page that hasn't happened yet. Whether it's a painter or a novelist, they need to expend mental energy to come up with the next chapter. How could it be something Izayoi could easily see with a single glance?
Moreover, the Butterfly Effect is everywhere. Any random action, or even a thought, can cause the future to change.
Even someone as strong as Izayoi can currently only see five minutes into the future.
Just like Uchiha Obito's intangibility, once it lasts for five minutes, there will be a cooldown period.
If Izayoi continuously watches the future for five minutes, the ability of his right eye will also enter a cooldown.
However, as long as he doesn't continuously watch for five minutes, Ame-no-Tokotachi can be used repeatedly like Kamui.
After mastering Ame-no-Tokotachi, Izayoi not only explored new Other Dimensions but also returned to those he had visited before. First, he used Sage of Six Paths Mode's sensing to cover the Other Dimension, and then used the eye of the past to see if Isshiki Otsutsuki had been there.
The result was that Isshiki Otsutsuki wasn't in any of these Other Dimensions, nor had he ever visited them.
After exploring the ice dimension, Izayoi continued to use Yomotsu Hirasaka to go to other Other Dimensions, with the same result.
"Could it be that his Other Dimension is hosted within that 'black eye'?" Izayoi muttered with a somewhat grim expression, his wariness of Isshiki Otsutsuki increasing.
Although this superior of Kaguya Otsutsuki's current strength is far less than Kaguya Otsutsuki's, to the point where he needs to escape and hide when encountering him and Madara Uchiha.
But the fact that this guy hasn't been discovered by Kaguya Otsutsuki and her two sons for a thousand years, and even almost turned the tables in Boruto, shows that his trump cards are still quite high-dimensional.
"It seems that blindly searching Other Dimensions is useless. I need to find a way to lure him out, or set a trap for him."
Despite saying this, Izayoi still continuously used Yomotsu Hirasaka, continuing to explore Other Dimension after Other Dimension.
This was not only to search for Isshiki Otsutsuki's whereabouts but also to improve his proficiency with Yomotsu Hirasaka, allowing Izayoi to gain a deeper understanding of space-time.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have come in person; he could have just sent a Wood Clone to do it.
Izayoi can now easily create Space-Time Passages.
Not only that, but he can also use Space-Time Passages to create a connection between an Other Dimension and the real world, just like the Three Great Sage Lands. Others can enter as long as they find the entrance.
There is now a door in Izayoi's underground base that leads to a certain Other Dimension.
Moreover, that Other Dimension was transformed by Izayoi using Chakra Rosaries into a paradise, where they can not only enjoy the scenery but also use it as a training ground.
That Other Dimension has also become the secret home of Izayoi and the others.
How high Izayoi's current space-time talent is can be explained by the Sky Control (Rainbow) Perk.
It wasn't until dinner time that Izayoi finally emerged from the Other Dimension.
"Big Brother, welcome home!"
His figure flew out of the Space-Time Portal, and just as Izayoi's feet touched the ground, he saw a graceful silhouette rush towards him, clinging to him as usual.
Looking at the Byakugan girl in front of him, Izayoi smiled, "You're such a big girl now, why are you still so childish?"
"Hehe... In front of Big Brother, Hanabi will always be a little sister who never grows up," Hanabi said with a smile. "And you said it, Big Brother, no matter how old Hanabi is, she can still ask you for a piggyback ride."
"Did I? Did I say something like that?" Izayoi feigned ignorance.
"Big Brother, I'll bite you, okay?" Hanabi revealed her small fangs threateningly.
"Alright, alright, I did say it," Izayoi pulled Hanabi down, patted the girl's head, and sighed slightly, "Before I knew it, that little kid who loved eating mochi balls back then has already become an independent ninja."
"Hehe... That's all thanks to Big Brother's good teaching," Hanabi linked arms with Izayoi, first complimenting him, then looking up with a proud expression, "As the Sixth Hokage's only disciple, Hanabi didn't embarrass Big Brother, did she?"
"Not only did you not embarrass me, you've already broken all sorts of records in the Five Great Shinobi Villages," Izayoi smiled. "Kakashi was able to become an All-Rounder Jonin at twelve because it was during the Third Great Shinobi War. But you, in a time of peace, broke the record for the fastest to become an All-Rounder Jonin, lowering it to eleven years old. You've already created an impossible miracle."
That's right, Hanabi had already become an All-Rounder Jonin and was once again famous throughout the Shinobi World.
Unlike Hinata's gentle and low-key personality, Hanabi, who was lively and competitive, carrying the family's honor and the title of the Hokage's disciple, was very impressive.
She completed all her missions alone. Her physical skills, a combination of hard and soft styles, along with the Super Hurricane Sphere Combination inherited from Izayoi, as well as the Uzumaki Clan's sealing jutsu and the Fifth Hokage's medical ninjutsu – this versatility was recognized by the Shinobi World.
Coupled with her terrifying Chakra reserves, Hanabi had already become one of Konoha's Ace Combat Powers.
Besides the change in her strength, Hanabi's appearance had also undergone a huge transformation.
Again, thanks to the Gelel Stone and the Otsutsuki Bloodline (Rainbow), Hanabi had become a beautiful girl of 1.6 meters in the past two years, the same height as Hinata during the Shippuden period, only ten centimeters shorter than her Boruto counterpart.
At this rate, by the time Hanabi reached Hinata's age, she might break the original 1.7-meter limit and become a super beautiful girl with long legs.
Under the maturation effect of the Gelel Stone, Hanabi's face had long since shed its childishness and was already beginning to reveal the charm of Boruto's number one goddess.
After causing a stir in Konoha and becoming famous in the Shinobi World, she had also become the goddess of countless boys.
Currently, Hanabi's brilliance had long since overshadowed Hinata, who had transitioned to a civilian role.
It was precisely for this reason that in people's address to Hinata, the phrase "Hanabi Hyuga's older sister" would be included.
"Hehe..."
Hanabi, who received Izayoi's praise, smiled, her beautiful eyes curving into crescent moons.
"Izayoi-kun, you're back!"
"You're back at the right time. Get ready to wash your hands and eat."
Entering the dining room, Hinata and the other three girls were busy.
Shion and Karin also happened to bring out dishes and smiled gently at Izayoi.
Two years had passed, and Shion and Karin had also undergone huge changes.
The former, as a replica Hinata, despite only getting Izayoi's cheat in the past two years, her height had still surpassed the original, reaching 1.65 meters.
Her proud figure in white home clothes, with curves like Hinata, was a Big G second only to Hinata in terms of her chest size.
Because it was inconvenient for cooking, her rice-tea colored long hair was tied into a single ponytail with a hair tie.
As for Karin, she had grown to 1.66 meters, and her temperament had become as quiet and gentle as Shizune's.
More importantly, her "granary" had finally grown.
Although far from Hinata and Shion, it was at the same level as Ino Yamanaka and one level larger than Hanabi.
"Sister Shion, Sister Karin, I'll help too," Hanabi said with a smile as she entered the kitchen with the two girls.
Looking at the four girls chatting and laughing in the kitchen, a happy smile also bloomed on Izayoi's face.
In life, one cannot lack familial love, romantic love, and friendship.
Missing one or two, a person's life is incomplete; even if they can live forever, it will be lonely.
Izayoi's life in this world was undoubtedly happy and complete.
Therefore, he developed the ambition and desire to be forever happy.
He wanted to escape the limitations of lifespan with the four girls, including Hinata, and live on.
And this world happened to have something that could fulfill this wish.
The Pill Refining Method, he had to get it!
Izayoi thought to himself.
Suddenly, Izayoi's eyes changed slightly, then he turned to look in a certain direction, the corner of his mouth slightly raised.
The four girls, including Hinata, who were busy cooking and cleaning, also paused for a beat, put down their work, and turned to look in a certain direction, their eyes filled with astonishment.
