Chapter 429

He himself had never imagined that Susanoo would, under Hyuga Kazuki's fists,

as if it were made of paper,

without the slightest resistance!!

Even Hashirama Senju was utterly astonished by the outcome of their battle!! Shang.

199. The Rematch of the Rinnegan and the Tenseigan!!

The smile on Madara Uchiha's face at this moment completely froze,

he himself had not expected either,

in the clash just now,

that Hyuga Kazuki had also not used her full power!!!

Seeing Susanoo summon its complete form,

only to have it blasted into fragments by Hyuga Kazuki's fists!!

Madara Uchiha's expression flickered between green and white!!

At this moment he could only feel that the fight just now had truly been somewhat embarrassing!!

And he had thought he already had victory firmly in his grasp,

that he could defeat Hyuga Kazuki with a hundred percent certainty,

but who would have thought,

that he was actually no match for Hyuga Kazuki at all?!

"Madara Uchiha... I told you long ago, if you still look at me with the same eyes as before."

"You are destined to pay the price for your actions."

Hyuga Kazuki coldly "five-three-three" withdrew her fists,

and said to Madara Uchiha.

For the scene before her eyes,

she had been cultivating bitterly these past few years,

precisely to make Madara Uchiha understand,

that her own strength was not weaker than his!!

And Madara Uchiha himself had not expected,

that Hyuga Kazuki would actually defeat his Susanoo so easily!!

This was the point that made Madara Uchiha feel most helpless,

the former Madara Uchiha believed Hyuga Kazuki was simply no match for him,

that there was still a considerable gap between their strength,

but in the blink of an eye he had been slapped in the face!!

Slightly narrowing his eyes,

Madara Uchiha only now formally regarded Hyuga Kazuki as his opponent,

he knew,

that now this woman, after these few years of cultivation,

combined with the power of the Tenseigan,

was probably truly no weaker than himself, who had obtained the Rinnegan!!

If he were still to be careless,

then he might very well suffer a crushing defeat at Hyuga Kazuki's hands!!

"Hyuga Kazuki... the real battle only begins now... the fight just now was merely a warm-up."

"Now let us begin the true showdown!!"

After a hint of a wild smile had appeared on Madara Uchiha's face earlier,

the Mangekyo Sharingan in his eyes

instantly transformed into the purple Rinnegan!!

And Hyuga Kazuki, seeing this, was likewise unwilling to be outdone,

the Byakugan in her eyes, ring by ring, also transformed into the newly awakened Tenseigan!!

Hyuga Kazuki was likewise not very familiar with the abilities of the Tenseigan,

she had only witnessed the showdown between Ōtsutsuki Aoishi and Hashirama Senju,

and possessed only a rough understanding of the Tenseigan's general abilities!!

And Madara Uchiha was likewise not very familiar with the Rinnegan's abilities,

he too only had a vague idea of how to use it,

yet neither of the two was completely ignorant of their dōjutsu!!

……

Hyuga Hizashi, upon seeing Hyuga Kazuki's Tenseigan,

merely let out a deep sigh!!

If he could, he too would have wished to awaken the Tenseigan,

but he also knew that he currently had no way of taking that step!!

Only now did he realize that above the Byakugan there existed an even higher-class dōjutsu,

and this dōjutsu could help him personally,

and could also help the entire Hyuga clan take a step up to a higher level,

But exactly how could the Byakugan be evolved into the Tenseigan?

Hyuga Hiashi had absolutely no clue at all,

and in their timeline there was no such formidable research personnel.

In Konoha,

any research on bloodline limits and various human experiments could only be carried out in secret,

and could never receive open support!!

As for any useful research in this area,

it was probably all tightly controlled by Shimura Danzo.

Could it be that he would have to throw in his lot with Shimura Danzo to obtain these things?

Thinking of this,

Hyuga Hiashi still shook his head.

He did not want to defect to Danzo for this reason!!

……

The Akatsuki—

seeing this scene, Uzumaki Nagato could only feel a wave of bewilderment.

When had the Rinnegan become so cheap?

Moreover, upon seeing the Rinnegan in Madara Uchiha's eye sockets,

Uzumaki Nagato felt an even stronger sense of familiarity!!

He had a premonition

that his own Rinnegan and Madara Uchiha's Rinnegan seemed to be the very same pair of eyes,

although he had no basis for it whatsoever,

Uzumaki Nagato had this intuition deep inside!!

"Konan… don't you feel that Madara Uchiha's eyes look especially familiar?"

"I feel as if… my own eyes are that very pair of his…"

"I'm growing more and more suspicious about how my Rinnegan came to be in my body…"

Uzumaki Nagato slowly poured out every doubt in his heart.

And Konan, upon hearing his words, only fell silent.

They were naturally no longer those ignorant little children they once were,

and as the leader of the Akatsuki,
