The Hyuga Shall Stand Above, In The Heavens!

Land of Fire.

Outside the hidden entrance connecting to the moon.

After agreeing on the appointment time with Hyuga Hitoshi, Orochimaru gave Patriarch Hitoshi a deep look and then turned to leave.

If before he was forced by threats to consider becoming an external research minister, now Orochimaru needed to seriously think about whether to work diligently in the position.

Hyuga Hitoshi was indeed very sincere. His theory of the Hyuga clan's evolution greatly benefited Orochimaru, but he was more interested in the ancient beings Hyuga Hitoshi mentioned.

Besides, the Ninjutsu collected by Hyuga Hitoshi over the years and the legacy left by Hamura made Orochimaru feel like he was in heaven.

Essentially, the two had no conflicts of interest, so cooperation wasn't impossible.

What's more surprising was that this kid openly stated that the Akatsuki organization could leave at any time, and if anyone caused trouble, he would help solve it.

He even said he would lend him a few pairs of Rinnegan to play with in the future.

That bold tone made Orochimaru respect Hyuga Hitoshi even more.

He didn't think Hitoshi was bragging because the golden mysterious eyeball on the moon didn't seem any worse than the Rinnegan. It was said that Hyuga Hitoshi personally researched it.

In short, everything on the moon was so shocking that Orochimaru's heart was completely shaken. It seemed that the position of the Hyuga clan's research minister was secure. The two agreed to talk in detail after handling some trivial matters. Orochimaru said that if Hitoshi didn't show off, they would have a good chat.

At the cave entrance.

The petite Rabbit Goddess curiously looked around, but when she saw Hyuga Hitoshi, a trace of disdain appeared in her eyes.

How could that snake-like man be so respectful to Hyuga Hitoshi!

Just now on the moon, her Byakugan saw clearly that this guy had marked Orochimaru, probably to track his movements at any time.

And this guy is fit to be the clan leader?

Thinking back, with just a glance, everyone in the nursery obeyed her. She never used such lowly methods.

Then...

"Then you were sealed by your own son."

Kaguya's expression changed, and she looked coldly at Hyuga Hitoshi.

Yes.

This body was created by the man in front of her, so he could probably know what she was thinking!

"Don't worry, unless necessary, I won't bother sensing the puppet."

Hyuga Hitoshi said calmly.

"As for Orochimaru? That's just my habit of keeping a backup plan."

The moon is the Hyuga clan's indispensable rear base. Hyuga Hitoshi took Orochimaru there and had to be responsible for his actions!

Leaving a backup plan, he openly led Orochimaru through the moon passage, clearly telling Orochimaru that he wasn't afraid of leaks and didn't intend to imprison him on the moon after he took office.

Such actions would make Orochimaru more cautious. If Orochimaru was smart, he would make the right choice.

As for Kaguya...

Hehe, if she had such a way of managing people back then and treated the earthlings as humans, her end wouldn't have been so tragic.

Openly telling the earthlings that the earth had been targeted by aliens and needed to create weapons to fight the enemy, wouldn't that be better?

You are the Rabbit Goddess, who would doubt you?

Some people are just not born to be leaders.

Hyuga Hitoshi glanced at Kaguya with pity, ignoring her clenched fists, and shifted his gaze to examine the surroundings of the cave entrance.

He could use space-time storage to transport the materials needed to build the base, so there was no need to go through the trouble of moving them through the passage.

The passage would mainly be used to transfer some clan members. After looking around for a while, Patriarch Hitoshi nodded in satisfaction. This place was hidden enough and would be useful if they were careful.

He planned to have Ushiuma send a few trusted people to keep an eye on things, which shouldn't be a problem.

After a thorough inspection, Hyuga Hitoshi had a clear idea and planned to start making arrangements to move the clan members once he returned.

The new Hyuga clan land was on the outskirts of the village, so it was easy to avoid drawing attention.

It's worth mentioning that after the Uchiha clan cleared their name, Brother Fugaku openly stopped the relocation of their clan land, and the higher-ups didn't say anything.

Brother Fugaku even publicly stated that the Hyuga clan didn't need to move and should stay where they were.

This was undoubtedly a betrayal to Patriarch Hitoshi, so he ordered Brother Fugaku to stop meddling in Hyuga clan affairs.

As a result, the new Hyuga clan land was the farthest from the center of Konohagakure, making them the true suburban kids.

But the Hyuga clan members were quite satisfied with this, and no one could find fault with it.

On a tree-lined path.

Patriarch Hitoshi, who intentionally let the Summoned Beast take a walk so that the Rabbit Goddess could enjoy the scenery, was strolling on the road to Konohagakure.

However, Hitoshi was somewhat puzzled by the surroundings.

He remembered that when he took this road to the moon before, the nearby villages and towns, although not prosperous, didn't have the current atmosphere of despair.

He could even see panicked civilians fleeing towards Konohagakure from time to time.

This made Hyuga Hitoshi frown, as the scene was easy to analyze.

In the original story, Kumogakure Village fought with Konohagakure for at least two years, but now the war had just started. Even if the "elite" combat forces sent by the old village chief were weak, it shouldn't have been possible for them to be pushed into the hinterland in just a few days.

Thinking it over, Hyuga Hitoshi pushed aside the obstacles blocking his view and curiously looked around at Kaguya, then his gaze suddenly became sharp as he looked into the distance.

Here it comes again!

This unique way of opening the eyes of the blasphemer!

The Rabbit Goddess wasn't very skilled now, but she had a lot of knowledge and could sense some special fluctuations after the Byakugan was activated.

So naturally, the Rabbit Goddess's face turned cold, she tightened her clothes, and retreated behind Hyuga Hitoshi. Even though she knew that everything behind her was visible after the Byakugan was activated, she still did it.

However, she felt that her behavior was somewhat inappropriate and frowned.

She was thinking about whether scolding the blasphemer would make him put away the Byakugan.

But unfortunately, before she could speak, Patriarch Hitoshi's figure had already shot forward like a cannonball.

Hmm?

The Rabbit Goddess was momentarily stunned, then her eyes sparkled.

She had already arrived on Earth.

Maybe she should stay away from the blasphemer and look for her separated will, trying to find a chance to truly revive herself?

Just as she was about to run away, Kaguya suddenly remembered the time she used her pressure, only to be pinned down by the blasphemer.

A thousand years had passed, and it seemed Earthlings had become much stronger.

Thinking about her current strength and comparing it to the blasphemer's terrifying eye power, Kaguya felt a bit confused.

In the end, she struggled and ran towards the blasphemer.

Maybe she could persuade the blasphemer to become her guard, and then take action!

If he begged her, the moon goddess might give him the chance.

Kaguya thought.

Finally.

The exhausted moon goddess, panting heavily, flew to Hyuga Hitoshi's side.

Alright, along the way she finally understood why the blasphemer was so confident.

If she moved a bit further away, controlling the puppet would be more difficult and consume her own energy. But next to the blasphemer, she would form a unique connection with him, serving as an energy source.

The plan to win him over might not go smoothly.

The somewhat dejected moon goddess moved closer to the sharp-eyed Patriarch Hitoshi, then followed his gaze.

This war-torn, rundown town.

On the long street, the two sides were facing off.

One side had a different symbol on their forehead protectors than the blasphemer, seemingly an enemy force, and they had a clear numerical advantage.

And the other side...

The moon goddess stared at the other side's trembling, imposing figure, whose chest was so large it could easily suppress her, and snorted without understanding.

She didn't choose to criticize the other person.

After all, that person didn't seem to be in a good state.
