Chapter 406 406: 13 Days in Immortal Village
After being purified by Toneri's body, the origin power of the Giant Tenseigan continuously surged into Shun's body.
After more than ten minutes, the large Tenseigan completely lost all its light, turning into a gray, lifeless object.
Meanwhile, the Tenseigan Chakra within Shun's body became increasingly vast, making his gaze both majestic and profound.
"Hinata, it's time for us to go."
Shun opened the Spatial Gate, casually picked up the unconscious Toneri by the collar, like a worn-out cloth bag, and threw him into the Spatial Gate.
Then, he slipped his left hand under Hinata's knees and supported her back with his right hand, lifting Hinata, who was nestled in his arms.
Hinata subconsciously wrapped her arms around his neck, her cheek pressed against his warm chest, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly on her closed eyes.
The other side of the Spatial Gate connected to a plain on the Ancestral Star.
The sun was shining brightly there, the plants were lush and green, and the air was filled with the fresh scent of grass and soil.
The moment she stepped through the Spatial Gate, the warm sunlight fell upon her, causing Hinata to instinctively shrink her neck and bury her face deeper.
Shun gently placed Hinata on the ground, then casually threw Toneri aside.
A flicker of disgust flashed in his eyes, and he stomped his foot heavily on Toneri's chest.
Crack!
With a crisp sound, Toneri's ribs broke, instantly waking him up.
Just as he was about to beg for mercy, he saw the cold killing intent in Shun's eyes.
"You used the Giant Tenseigan to peek into others' privacy, with no bottom line, you deserved to die long ago."
Shun's voice was devoid of any warmth, and the force in his foot increased.
"No! Don't!"
Toneri let out a tragic scream, his body twisting and struggling on the ground, but it was no use.
With a dull thud, Toneri's heart was completely crushed, the light in his eyes extinguished, and his body slumped to the ground, losing all signs of life.
Shun withdrew his foot, disgustedly patted the sole of his shoe, then turned, picked up Hinata, and walked towards Immortal Village in the distance.
Immortal Village was nestled in a valley on Ancestral Star, surrounded by dense forests, with the air filled with rich Natural Energy and the fresh scent of plants.
This was not only a training place meticulously crafted by Shun but also possessed special time law.
Five days passing in Immortal Village was equivalent to only one day in the Ninja World, making it the perfect place for Hinata to consolidate her power and complete her Tenseigan transformation.
For the next thirteen days, Shun meticulously cared for the blind Hinata in Immortal Village.
Every morning, just as dawn was breaking, Shun would take Hinata for a walk in the forest. He guided her hand with Chakra, teaching her to perceive everything around her through Natural Energy.
The trembling of leaves in the breeze, the trajectory of falling dewdrops, the sound of distant streams, and even the wriggling of earthworms in the soil became clearly discernible in her perception.
After breakfast, Shun would comb through her Chakra pathways, injecting the stored pure Tenseigan Chakra into her body in batches, guiding the power to deeply fuse with her bloodline.
Although Hinata could not see, she could clearly feel the changes in the power within her body.
That warm energy, like a stream, flowed through, continuously washing and nourishing the Chakra pathways around her eyes, and the discomfort caused by her blindness lessened day by day.
The afternoon was relatively leisurely. Shun would sit on a stone stool in the courtyard, telling Hinata stories about the history of the Ninja World, the secret history of the Ōtsutsuki clan, or teaching her more refined Chakra control techniques.
Hinata would sit obediently beside him, her head gently resting on his shoulder, listening intently, occasionally asking one or two naive questions, which Shun would patiently answer.
"Shun-sensei, the flowers on Ancestral Star seem a bit different from those in the Ninja World?" Hinata asked softly, sniffing the newly bloomed wildflowers in the courtyard.
Shun raised his hand to stroke her hair, his fingertips carrying the fresh scent of plants. "The plants on Ancestral Star are nourished by more Natural Energy, so they are a bit different. When your eyes are better, I'll take you to see the Flower Rain in the Ninja World."
Hinata's cheeks flushed slightly, and she nodded gently. "Okay, I'll be waiting."
At night, Shun would sit by her bed, humming soft melodies until she fell peacefully asleep.
Sometimes Hinata would frown in her dreams due to eye pain, and Shun would reach out, gently soothing her eye sockets with the Chakra in his palm until her brows relaxed.
During these thirteen days, their relationship grew increasingly intimate.
Hinata's initial dependence gradually turned into deep admiration.
Shun was also touched by her gentleness, obedience, and resilience, and while caring for her, he also showed a tenderness and patience rarely seen by others.
He would choose the softest clothes for her, prepare meals that weren't too hot, and even, when she was sensing butterflies, gently guide them with Chakra to land on her fingertips, allowing her to feel their delicate touch.
As time passed, the Tenseigan power within Hinata became more stable, and the pain in her eyes completely disappeared, replaced by a vast energy surging in her eye sockets.
She could vaguely feel that her vision was being reshaped, as if countless eyes were opening simultaneously, capable of piercing through darkness and reaching distant unknowns.
On the morning of the twelfth day, as the first ray of sunlight streamed through the window onto Hinata's face, she slowly opened her eyes. There was no intense pain, only a warm power blossoming in her eye sockets.
Her original Byakugan had long disappeared, replaced by a pair of Tenseigan. Her pupils were a clear, light blue, and the whites of her eyes glowed faintly, exuding a pure and powerful aura.
She could clearly see everything in the room: the wildflowers on the table, the swaying leaves outside the window, the birds flying in the distant forest, and she could even see through the wall to Shun tending to the flowers and plants in the courtyard.
Her vision had not only recovered but had also become incredibly vast. As far as her gaze reached, planets over 400,000 kilometers away were clearly visible.
"Shun-sensei... I... I can see!"
Hinata excitedly stood up, her eyes filled with tears, and ran towards Shun in the courtyard.
Shun heard the voice and turned to look. When he saw the clear Tenseigan in Hinata's eyes, a relieved smile appeared on his face.
"Congratulations, Hinata. The Tenseigan evolution is complete."
Hinata threw herself into his arms, her tears soaking his clothes, her voice filled with excitement and sobs. "Thank you, Shun-sensei... thank you for always being with me and taking care of me."
Shun gently embraced her, raised his hand to wipe away her tears, and said softly, "This is the result of your own hard work. You now possess power capable of changing the course of battle."
The sunlight fell upon them, warm and dazzling.
The thirteen days in Immortal Village, which was just over two days in the Ninja World, not only allowed Hinata to complete her transformation from Byakugan to Tenseigan but also deepened the bond between her and Shun, solidified by daily companionship and care.
Shun looked down at Hinata in his arms, his eyes gleaming with fighting spirit. "Let's go, Hinata. It's time for us to return to the Ninja World. Naruto is still waiting for us, and this great war should finally come to an end."
Hinata nodded.
Feeling the vast power within her, her heart was filled with confidence.
