Chapter 457: Chapter 457: Awakening the Tenseigan
A year had passed.
Shishou's livestock farms had once again produced a large number of new animals.
So, he traveled to the livestock farms in the Land of Water, the Land of Fire, and the Land of Lightning, where his bugs devoured the newly bred tens of thousands of livestock.
After completing these tasks, he returned to his underground laboratory in Fire City and resumed his experiments with Hamura cells.
With the energy provided by the tens of thousands of livestock, he quickly cultivated enough Hamura cells for transplantation.
Transplant, divide, devour, and feed back.
After devouring and feeding back all the White Zetsu implanted with Hamura cells, Shishou's chakra reserves increased rapidly.
As Hamura's bloodline power within him grew stronger, Shishou could feel his right eye's Byakugan constantly evolving.
As the feedback continued, the increase in chakra within Shishou gradually slowed and eventually halted.
Noticing this, Shishou stopped the feedback process and closed his eyes to sense the changes within his body.
He could clearly feel the power of Hamura's bloodline converging in his right eye.
As the power continued to gather, Shishou felt the clear signs of the Tenseigan awakening.
Two hours later, the pulsations in his right eye finally subsided.
When he opened his right eye, a bright purple pupil reflected in the mirror.
The Tenseigan had awakened!
"So, this is the Tenseigan..."
Seeing the Tenseigan in his right eye, Shishou was overjoyed.
He had initially thought it would take several years, but he hadn't expected to awaken the Tenseigan so soon.
After a moment of thought, Shishou understood the reason.
He had already awakened the Kaguya clan's Shikotsumyaku, a descendant of Hamura's brother Hagoromo. Combined with the full bloodline power of Hagoromo and the power of the Divine Tree within him, it made sense that he awakened the Tenseigan so quickly.
Moreover, he had directly absorbed Hamura's bloodline power, making his awakening much more straightforward than Hinata Rimei's.
"Left eye Rinnegan, right eye Tenseigan."
"I now possess the bloodline powers of both Hagoromo and Hamura."
"There's no one in the ninja world who can stand against me now."
Feeling the immense power within him, Shishou was filled with pride and excitement.
Next, he began to experiment with the Tenseigan's powers.
In an instant, a black Truth-Seeking Orb appeared beside Shishou's hand.
Seeing the Truth-Seeking Orb in his hand, Shishou couldn't help but smile.
After receiving the Divine Tree's power from Kaguya, he could also create Truth-Seeking Orbs.
However, like Nagato, once the Divine Tree's power was depleted, he lost the ability to create them.
But now, with the Tenseigan's power, he could freely create his own Truth-Seeking Orbs.
This signified that he had permanently stepped into the Six Paths level.
Creating the Truth-Seeking Orb, Shishou went to the moon to practice using the other Tenseigan abilities.
With five Truth-Seeking Orbs floating around him, a golden light sword materialized in his hand.
Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!
Capable of slicing through the moon with a single strike.
As Shishou continued to experiment, his understanding of the Tenseigan grew more comprehensive.
The Tenseigan's abilities were extensive.
It could use the Yin-Yang Release to create anything, and it possessed powerful offensive techniques like the Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion and Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion.
It could control gravitational and repulsive forces, manipulate planetary trajectories, absorb chakra, imbue puppets with life, and perform various other highly practical skills.
Most importantly for Shishou, it had spatial manipulation abilities, including time-space capabilities.
Shishou's Tenseigan could create spatial portals between two targets, similar to the one between the moon and the ninja world.
However, creating such a portal required an enormous amount of chakra, making it impractical for regular use even with his current chakra reserves.
Nevertheless, with this ability, Shishou contemplated targeting Kaguya's Dimension of Beginnings.
The thought of the sage creatures in Kaguya's dimension, which had developed over a thousand years, made Shishou eager.
If he could devour all the sage creatures in the Dimension of Beginnings, he might dare to attempt feeding back Kaguya's cells, potentially obtaining the same bloodline powers as Kaguya.
Alternatively, he could cultivate the Divine Tree and harvest the Chakra Fruit.
As for whether Kaguya would kill him for exploiting her dimension, that remained to be seen.
After thoroughly mastering the Tenseigan's abilities, Shishou concealed the Rinnegan and Tenseigan in his eyes and returned to Konoha.
With the Tenseigan awakened, his next goal was to awaken the bloodline powers of all the Tailed Beasts, attempting to obtain the Divine Tree's power or become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki.
Since Shishou's bloodline powers were all acquired through the feedback from his bugs, he wasn't worried about Kaguya reviving through him.
After all, the Ten-Tails wasn't exclusive to the Otsutsuki clan. If revival through another Ten-Tails was possible, Kaguya would have already revived, not waiting until now.
Moreover, given his relationship with Kaguya, she wouldn't harm him.
With these thoughts in mind, Shishou glanced at the time and headed into the forest of Konoha.
Upon entering the forest, he saw Tenten sitting quietly under a large tree, meditating with a few butterflies fluttering around her.
Tenten's calm and unassuming nature made her well-suited for sage training, even though her aptitude didn't match the likes of Ringo Ameyuri, Naruto, or Sasuke.
Under Shishou's guidance, she was making rapid progress.
Additionally, with the small amount of White Snake Sage's bloodline he had fed back to her, Tenten had a good chance of becoming the fourth successful sage practitioner among Konoha's younger generation.
Sensing Shishou's presence, Tenten opened her eyes, glanced at him, and then continued her meditation.
Shishou waited quietly nearby, not wanting to disturb her.
After finishing her daily sage training, Tenten stood up excitedly and jumped onto Shishou's back.
"Shishou, I'm hungry. Let's go eat together."
Tenten happily clung to Shishou's back.
Carrying her, Shishou smiled and said, "Your birthday is coming up. What do you want as a gift?"
The day after tomorrow, March 9th, was Tenten's birthday.
On that day, she would turn eighteen and officially become an adult.
Hearing that Shishou remembered her birthday, Tenten was overjoyed.
Resting her chin on Shishou's shoulder, she said with a smile, "As long as it's from you, Shishou, I'll love it."
Shishou laughed and said:
"Is that so? Then I'll give you your present in advance."
