"Hey, are you still afraid that I will know?" Mito tried to give him a teasing smile.
Unexpectedly, Kyosuke nodded without hesitation and said, "Of course, the transaction needs to be kept secret. Letting too many people know will easily cause unnecessary trouble."
"...Okay." Hinata Hyūga originally wanted to refuse outright. He didn't think there was any need to interfere in the fight between the two clans.
Not long ago, an envoy also came to Senju and offered many tempting conditions, but he sent him away without hesitation.
Now that it's Uchiha's turn, nothing will change.
Choosing to listen was just his way of expressing his respect for a division commander.
Soon, the two people who were listening left together, leaving only Kyosuke and the Hyuga clan leader in the living room.
Unexpectedly, he still shook his head and said frankly, "Excuse me for being blunt, but can you guarantee that our conversation won't reach the ears of a third party?"
Taking a deep breath, Hinata Hyūga could clearly feel his patience running out bit by bit.
However, considering the young man's identity, he suppressed his impatience and activated the isolation barrier that was essential for the conference room.
"Don't worry, even the Byakugan can't peek in here now."
"That's good." Kyosuke nodded and said something that almost made the Hyuga clan leader jump up.
"Do you know about the existence of the Tenseigan?"
He subconsciously rolled his eyes, and the ferocious blue veins completely diluted the elegance of the man.
He now looked like the head of a clan that dominated the Warring States Period.
"Where did you hear this name?" asked Hinata Hyūga.
In fact, he couldn't remain calm. As the patriarch, he had the authority to inspect all the classics in the family.
In some incomplete books, he had heard of the existence of a similar Tenseigan, saying that it was the end point of the Byakugan's evolution.
It also involves unknown words such as Hamura's ancestors, the Ninja Clan, the moon, and risks in the dark.
Once upon a time, Tennin thought that he had no way of finding out the truth of thousands of years ago, but he didn't expect to get information from a kid from a foreign race today.
"Please take a seat, Chief of the Hyuga clan." It seemed as if the two sides had swapped roles, and Kyosuke's every move was filled with the calmness and composure of a master.
Realizing that he had lost his composure, Tennin Hyuga took great effort to force himself to sit down.
He had to admit that the other party was indeed well prepared.
He, who originally didn't care much, has now been completely aroused. Now it depends on how the young man will seduce him.
"Rumor has it that the Sage of Six Paths saved the world, founded the Ninja Clan, and ushered in a thousand years of prosperous ninja history."
Upon hearing this, Hinata Hyūga's expression remained unchanged. He had heard many such mythological stories and could tell several different versions off the top of his head.
"Of course these clan leaders have heard of this, but you probably don't know that the Sage of Six Paths actually has a younger brother."
Brother? He leaned forward unconsciously, his attention focused.
"Yes, his brother's name is Hamura Ōtsutsuki."
Snap! The poor armrest was crushed into pieces by Tennin Hyuga. After hearing the name of Hamura's ancestor, he probably believed it 70% of the time.
You know, even he only knew the two words "Hamura", and had no connection with Otsutsuki or Six Paths Sage.
He had a lot of questions to ask, but soon stopped guessing because the boy continued to explain.
"For some reason, the noble ancestor decided to leave the ninja world and go to an unknown place to guard against the threat from the dark."
"Therefore, his Sharingan was split in two, and the Sharingan that remained in the ninja world is the Hyuga clan."
The Tennin Hyuga across from him felt like he was listening to a myth in a restaurant.
Is this kid making up a lie to fool me?
In order to gain his trust, Kyosuke thought for a moment and revealed a little more information to him: "Your two clans have inherited different powers from Hamura Ōtsutsuki."
"You inherited the 'Eye', while another clan formed the 'Body'."
"To open the Tenseigan, the eye and body must be combined. In that way, you can gain power that surpasses the Mangekyō Sharingan."
The existence of the Mangekyō Sharingan is no secret to the top leaders of the ninja world.
For a period of time, there were a large number of Uchiha people who used the Mangekyō Sharingan, and they once bullied the entire Land of Fire. Unfortunately, they eventually fell to a civil war.
In order to suppress the Mangekyō Sharingan ninjas, the forbidden technique "Izanami" came into being. There was no record of this within the clan, and he only learned about it through the memories of Itachi Uchiha (reanimated via Edo Tensei).
By mentioning the Mangekyō Sharingan, he wanted to show the power of the Tenseigan and at the same time tell the other party that he was not a little kid who knew nothing.
After a long silence, Tennin Hyuga suddenly regained his composure and said calmly, "Your story is very vivid, but unfortunately it is not enough to convince me."
It seemed that the other party never believed his words.
Unfortunately, this trick doesn't work on Kyosuke at all.
"I see. Since the Hyuga clan leader doesn't want to believe it, then we should just remove the barrier."
"It's just a joke anyway, why bother about others hearing it?"
Kyosuke's words were an attempt to force the emperor to abdicate.
You say you don't believe it?
Well then, why don't we all speak frankly and reveal the secrets of your Hyuga clan to the world.
There was another period of silent silence. After a long while, Tennin Hyuga spoke again: "You have to provide some evidence to convince me."
Faced with the temptation of the Tenseigan, even though he knew the chances were slim, he had to try his best to get it.
"Evidence." Kyosuke shook his head in distress, then suddenly leaned forward with a wicked smile on his face. "If the head of the Hyuga clan agrees to form an alliance with our clan, I can personally take you to meet him."
That clan is indeed still alive... After a brief struggle, Tennin Hyuga said decisively: "Very good, as long as you prove the feasibility of your plan, I, Hyuga, will be your most solid ally."
He didn't say Uchiha, but directly used "you". It must be said that these old foxes really understand the art of negotiation.
Hearing this, Kyosuke smiled slightly and slowly extended his right hand towards the other party.
"Deal, I hope our cooperation will be pleasant."
...
In the northern part of the Land of Fire, Uchiha Maya led his personal guards and had been staying in this area for a long time.
According to the map of the area given by the adults, she explored almost every corner of the earth and finally found a space–time barrier in a cave.
"The road to the moon."
After ordering people to carefully cover up the cave and record the detailed coordinates, the team quickly left.
Now that the thing has been found, what happens next is none of her business.
Soon, Kyosuke, who was a guest at the Hyuga clan, received a message from Maya.
Using the Hiraishin kunai placed along the way, he successfully reached the cave in about half an hour.
Next, it is time to study the space–time barrier.
When it can be perfectly reproduced, I will be able to lead the Hyuga clan to realize their dream of landing on the moon.
