Chapter 557: How to awaken the Tenseigan?
As soon as the meteor was smashed on the battlefield in the Land of Fire, Toneri collapsed on the ground and heavily gasped for breath.
Although Toneri possesses one of the purest Otsutsuki bloodlines and has extremely high talent as well as authority over the Giant Tenseigan, he is still an immature kid who has yet to enter his teenage, so, dragging a meteorite from all the way in deep outer space to the earth was still a very difficult task for him.
After all, the distance that the meteor had to cover is hundreds of thousands of miles. Just accelerating it and correcting its trajectory during the journey has put a lot of burden on Toneri and emptied his entire Chakra Reserves.
And this is still the situation when the main Chakra consumption is that of the Giant Tenseigan. If Toneri had relied on his own power, then let alone dragging it all the way towards the earth, he couldn’t even make the meteorite budge slightly.
Therefore, Toneri realized just how weak he is at this moment, because if not, then he wouldn’t be desperately gasping for breath at this moment.
“Sure enough… I am still not good enough.” After introspection, Toneri stood up on his soft feet and lightly pressed his palm on the Giant Tenseigan.
Although at this moment he is extremely tired and overwhelmed, he must at least confirm the result of the meteor collision to figure out whether the person who stole Gedo Mazo died in the attack or are they still alive.
‘Of course, no one can survive such an attack.’ That’s what Toneri thinks…
You must know that the meteorite that fell on the battlefield was an asteroid drifting in outer space, its toughness, density, as well as rigidity are much-much higher compared to the ordinary piece of rocks that are found on the Earth. Moreover, the entire process of the meteor collision was under the control of the Giant Tenseigan’s Chakra, so its power is multiple times higher compared to the artificial meteor fall.
As such, ‘There is really no way anyone can survive such an attack.’ That’s what Toneri believes.
“But there is no harm in confirming.” He still wants to be foolproof and verify whether that person is really dead on not.
With these intentions, Toneri activated the Giant Tenseigan, and his consciousness soon reached the Shinobi World on the Earth, and more specifically on the battlefield in the Land of Fire.
As Toneri looked at the battlefield, the first thing he saw was the mushroom-shaped cloud of dust and smoke that was constantly rising above…
The mushroom-shaped cloud not only contained a large amount of dust and ash but also extremely dense and chaotic chakra waves consisting of Rinnegan Chakra, Tenseigan Chakra, as well as extremely rich Natural Energy and Life Force, the combination of these scattered Chakra made the center of Mushroom-shaped Cloud extremely chaotic, filled with stormy winds and raging lightning thus making it extremely difficult for Toneri to clearly perceive anything inside it.
After discovering this situation, Toneri’s frowned brows gradually loosened with a relieved expression.
Although he doesn’t really have much combat experience, this does not hinder his basic judgmental ability in regard to certain things… And given the chaotic situation inside the mushroom-shaped cloud, Toneri didn’t really think anyone could have survived the meteor fall.
Therefore, it doesn’t really matter who stole Gedo Mazo, and what is the ‘Cause’ of the abnormality with the Giant Tenseigan on the Moon, after being crushed by the meteorite, each and every single one of them must be dead, which means everything is over!
In fact, Toneri even felt that the ominous Gedo Mazo might have also been crushed by the meteorite and permanently destroyed, so the Otsutsuki Clan would no longer have to be shameful for not being able to fulfill their responsibility of guarding the Gedo Mazo, and the threat of Juubi will also come to an end.
“With this, I hope that the people of the Shinobi World will learn a lesson and not use Chakra for creating more wars…” muttered Toneri and decided to withdraw his consciousness out of the Shinobi World.
ROAAARRRR!!!!
And just as Toneri was about to do so, suddenly, a breathtaking roar came from the center of the mushroom-shaped cloud and resounded all over the battlefield!
“WHAT?!!!” – Toneri exclaimed in surprise, shock, and doubt…
Immediately afterward, the mushroom-shaped cloud started to slowly disperse under the storm caused by the roar and revealed a hideous and terrifying head with nine eye sockets.
“The Demonic Statue of the Outer Path!? How could it still be, okay?” Toneri immediately recognized the statue and was surprised to find that even after being smashed in the head by the meteorite, it was not destroyed at all, which made Toneri extremely shocked!
But before Toneri could get any more answers, he keenly felt a force on the battlefield trying to perceive him
Upon feeling someone trying to perceive him, Toneri was extremely decisive and without any hesitation, he withdrew his consciousness out of the Giant Tenseigan and cut off all the connection between the Moon and the Earth, and that’s not it, he even activated several defensive barriers on the Moon that would prevent anyone from trying to invade here.
After finishing these series of tasks in one breath, Toneri again collapsed on the floor and faintly breathed a relieved sigh.
The experience just a few moments ago was really shocking for him, not only were the people of the Shinobi World able to resist and survive the meteorite fall, they still had enough Chakra and energy left to be able to perceive him, the perpetrator, who is present hundreds of thousands of miles away from them… This is too scary!
“What the Elder said is indeed correct… The has not yet arrived, so we can never be too careful or hasty with the Shinobi World… No matter what path I choose, I need to have the corresponding strength to follow that path…” muttered Toneri in understanding.
After learning this lesson, Toneri also realized why the ancestors haven’t dealt with the Shinobi World yet, and why they haven’t taken back Gedo Mazo, yet.
Previously, the ignorantly innocent, and arrogantly proud Toneri didn’t understand the caution of the Elders, but now he finally understood why the elders have been so cautious with the matters of the Shinobi World, despite having the Giant Tenseigan with them.
“Only when you awaken the Tenseigan will you be able to exert the True power of Hamura’s Tenseigan” – These were the words of the Elders before their death, and now Toneri has carved them into his brain…
The main reason why these Otsutsuki Clansmen of the moon are able to freely control the Giant Tenseigan is that the Giant Tenseigan mainly constitutes tens of thousands of Byakugan of their ancestors. This blood connection is what allows them to control the Energy Vessel.
However, the power gap between a single individual and the Giant Tenseigan that contains the Chakra of tens of thousands of people is still too great, as such, even if the Otsutsuki Clansmen of the moon have an innate control over the Giant Tenseigan, exerting its true power is still very difficult and burdensome for them.
The same is the case that happened now, although Toneri was able to drag a large meteorite from all the way in outer space to the battlefield in the Land of Fire on the Earth, doing so was extremely burdensome for him and emptied his entire Chakra Reserves.
Being able to do this is already the upper limit of the Otsutsuki Clansmen on the moon; therefore, the elders have been very cautious.
The elders understood their limits fairly well and acted within them.
Lest they mistakenly provoke an overly powerful enemy and end up suffering annihilation. After all, even if they have the Giant Tenseigan, they are not fully confident in their ability to be able to defeat the likes of the Gods of Shinobi… As such, they patiently bid their time and patiently waited for a better opportunity and placed all their hopes on the young to do the things they have been unable to do.
In their eyes, perhaps only Toneri has the ability to complete Hamura’s Decree of purifying the failed Shinobi World of Rikudo Sennin.
And Toneri also understood this, murmured to himself in a distracted tone, “I need to awaken the Tenseigan to fully use the power of Hamura’s eyes… but how do I awaken the Tenseigan?”
The young Toneri is obviously unaware of how to awaken the Tenseigan, and neither his father nor the elders of the Otsutsuki Clan on the moon told him how to awaken the Tenseigan.
The reason why they didn’t tell him is that they, themselves are unaware. And this is also reasonable, because if they were aware, then they would have long since stolen a pair of Byakugan from the Hyuga Clan on the Earth and awakened the Tenseigan by now.
But Toneri needs the Tenseigan to exert the power of the Giant Tenseigan, so after thinking a little, he muttered, “Perhaps I need to study the history of our clan, maybe I will be able to find something from there…”
…
On the Battlefield in the Shinobi World.
Crack… Crack… Crack…
Not long after Toneri cut off the Giant Tenseigan’s connection with the Shinobi World, the sound of the Spherical Shell made up of the Truth-Seeking Orbs sounded in Yama’s ears.
His previous speculations were indeed correct, not long after the meteorite collided on the battlefield, the connection between the Giant Tenseigan on the Moon and the Shinobi World was cut off.
In fact, not only was the connection was cut off, but several layers of the barrier were also deployed because of which Yama can no longer perceive the existence or Chakra of the Giant Tenseigan.
After losing the Charka support of the Giant Tenseigan, Yama’s strength decreased.
Fortunately, enough, Nagato lived up to Yama’s expectations, not only did he slow down the meteorite, he even offset most of the damage caused by the meteorite. Which made it possible for Yama and the Mainland to easily survive this calamitic situation with just some shaking and small-scale damage, respectively.
Crack… crack… Kacha… shatter!
It didn’t take long for the cracks to spread all over the Spherical Shell as it started shattering into dust and disappeared into the air.
The Truth-Seeking Orb was greatly damaged by the meteorite, and not that the resonant Connection with the Giant Tenseigan on the moon is cut off, so Yama could no longer maintain the Truth-Seeking Orb, as such, he didn’t insist on it and let it crumble to dust.
With the protection of the Truth-Seeking Orb gone, Yama’s figure appeared on the battlefield out in the open, and he looked at the figure of the bloody and scrawny Nagato not far away.
