Naruto : The ultimate Troublemaker

Chapter 161: Moon Princess



*In the sanctuary of the Otsutsuki descendants of Hamura on the Moon*

The lunar surface shimmered with a pale light, illuminated by an infinite black sky where stars seemed frozen in time. In the distance, immense structures of dazzling white rose, reminiscent of ancient and ethereal architecture typical of the Otsutsuki clan. These massive buildings, adorned with intricate patterns and spiral engravings, seemed to float slightly above the ground, held aloft by advanced technology.

Luminescent gardens stretched around the dwellings, powered by bioluminescent vegetation unique to this world. Delicate paths wound through these gardens, where Otsutsuki descendants of Hamura went about their business. Some meditated near clear water basins, while others trained in combat, their graceful movements reflecting their ancestral mastery of martial arts.

In an observation tower atop one of the main buildings, Toneri Otsutsuki sat near a large window. His piercing gaze fixed on the horizon, though he was absorbed in troubling thoughts. The memories of the human who had visited their sanctuary, and the warnings he had left behind, were still vivid in his mind.

This man, a mysterious and terrifying being, had forced him to take a disciple to eradicate them on the spot. He claimed that the Otsutsuki clan must prepare for threats from other dimensions. Toneri, initially incredulous, had scorned these warnings. It was only after Urashiki Otsutsuki's attack two years ago, where a part of the clan had nearly been decimated, that he understood the gravity of the situation.

Gazing at the dark sky, a shiver suddenly ran through him. Unfamiliar chakra signatures had just emerged. He furrowed his brows, his hand gripping the windowsill.

"Something is approaching," he murmured to himself.

He immediately sat up straight. His tone was grave as he gave his orders:

"Alert the entire clan. Prepare for an imminent attack. And you," he said, gesturing to a young Otsutsuki nearby, "go and inform the princess. Tell her it's time to act."

The subordinate nodded nervously and dashed off at full speed.

Not far away, in a vast courtyard surrounded by carved pillars and statues depicting Hamura, a woman trained with formidable grace and precision. The ground was covered in cracks, witnesses to recent battles, while dozens of Otsutsuki clan warriors stood in formation around her, ready to face her.

The woman, her eyes blindfolded, moved like a dancer, each movement calculated, every gesture devastating. Her long purple hair floated behind her, as if carried by an invisible wind. Dressed in an immaculate outfit, she wore a white combat dress adorned with silver patterns, cinched at the waist by a belt. Long, flowing sleeves swayed with each of her strikes, accentuating her elegance.

Her taijutsu was impressive: destructive palms and kicks of unmatched precision. She seemed untouchable, anticipating every attack from the warriors around her. One by one, they were thrown to the ground, their bodies crashing violently against the stone.

Despite the intensity of the training, she remained surprisingly calm, her breath steady, and not a single drop of sweat appeared on her forehead. She dominated the terrain with total mastery, crushing her opponents with apparent ease.

The subordinate sent by Toneri arrived running, but slowed down upon seeing the carnage. The warriors lay around the princess, some with dislocated limbs, others barely conscious. His courage wavered.

"Prin... princess..." he stammered, nervously bowing.

The woman finished off her last opponent with a precise strike to the throat before turning towards him. Her voice was calm but authoritative:

"I know."

She slowly removed her blindfold, revealing a face of striking beauty but marked by a glacial hardness. The place where her eyes had been previously empty now glowed with a nacreous light. The veins of her Byakugan instantly appeared around her temples.

"Two presences..." she said, squinting. "One is insignificant, but the other... It is far more powerful than anything I have faced so far."

She surveyed the warriors at her feet, but granted them no pity or interest. Her words were cold and determined:

"Inform Toneri-kun to stay back. These parasites are mine. There's no need to mobilize the clan."

The subordinate quickly nodded, too terrified to respond.

Without waiting, the princess leaped forward, creating a gaping crater beneath her feet. Her departure was so sudden that the air was disturbed, raising a cloud of dust.

She dashed towards the chakra signatures, her mind focused, her Byakugan analyzing every detail on the horizon. The lunar soil cracked beneath her feet, and the wind she generated seemed to tear at the atmosphere.

As she advanced, her mind ignited with a cold anger. She still remembered her transformation into the Moon Princess. Recognized for her beauty and power, she had been crowned as the protector of the Moon. Her new life had made her harder, more formidable, very different from the fragile little Hyuga.
