Chapter 276: Chapter 276: Hinata’s Blessing in Disguise
Everything in life has two sides, just like light always casts a shadow. It's a natural balance.
Right now, Hinata's body was in trouble due to the strain of forcefully awakening the Tenseigan. This was undoubtedly a bad thing.
But could there also be a good side to it?
Akira, hearing this, looked at Tsunade, curious to know what the good side might be.
"Her Byakugan has already evolved into what I've heard called the Tenseigan," Tsunade explained. "As long as her body can hold out through this period and adapt to the Tenseigan's chakra consumption, she will officially step into the realm of Kage-level chakra reserves."
"Not only that, but as her chakra increases, the full power of the Tenseigan will gradually be unlocked."
Tsunade's words were clear and precise, laying out the situation for Akira.
"I see, that makes sense," Akira nodded thoughtfully in response.
"Hinata's courage is truly admirable!" At this moment, a hoarse but charismatic voice spoke up-it was Orochimaru!
Back when Hinata's body was restored, it was the combined efforts of both Orochimaru and Tsunade that had made it possible. So when news spread of Hinata's condition, it wasn't just Akira and Tsunade who were informed-Orochimaru had been notified as well. He arrived just in time to hear Tsunade's explanation.
As Orochimaru entered, his eyes fell on Hinata, a flicker of admiration in them. "I once heard about a certain kind of eagle. When they are young, their parents break the bones of their wings and push them off a cliff."
"Only those that survive by instinctively learning to fly become the true rulers of the skies. And those that fail? Well, they simply perish."
"Hinata's courage reminds me of that eagle," Orochimaru said with a hint of respect in his voice.
Knowing that Hinata had forced her Byakugan to evolve into the Tenseigan through sheer willpower earned her a new level of respect from Orochimaru. Such bravery wasn't something just anyone could muster.
Originally, Orochimaru had thought Hinata was merely lucky to have caught Akira's eye. She had always seemed too kind-hearted and gentle, hardly resembling a true ninja.
But today, Orochimaru's view of Hinata had changed dramatically.
"Well, well... It seems Akira really does have an eye for people," Orochimaru mused internally. "He saw something in her that none of us did."
"Hmm. Why don't you take a look and tell me when she'll recover?" Akira said, gesturing toward Hinata.
Hinata's body, having undergone treatment that included cells from both Sasuke and Naruto, had been most thoroughly studied by Orochimaru.
"Of course, Akira," Orochimaru responded respectfully, nodding his head before approaching Hinata to examine her more closely.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"Wow, he's so respectful towards you," Tsunade said, raising an eyebrow. "I've never seen him act like this before."
"She's not part of your Uchiha clan yet!" Hiashi snapped, visibly irritated by Akira's casual
remark.
Even though Hiashi had once hoped to rush the relationship between Hinata and Akira, Akira's teasing now was getting on his nerves, especially with others around to hear.
Tsunade and Orochimaru, watching the interaction between Akira and Hiashi, exchanged
amused glances.
"Hiashi-sama, Akira, it seems the two of you get along quite well," Tsunade remarked with a
smile.
"You're mistaken! Not at all!" Both men said at the same time, causing Tsunade and Orochimaru to
chuckle softly.
Seeing that the two men had had enough of their playful banter, Tsunade and Orochimaru
took their leave.
"Take good care of yourself, Hinata. I'll come check on you again soon," Akira said softly
before departing.
After leaving the Hyuga household, Akira couldn't help but reflect on everything that had just happened. Hinata's situation, while alarming at first, had actually turned out to be a blessing
in disguise.
Perhaps her frustration with being unable to help had driven her to push herself this far. But
Akira was grateful. "To have a woman like her by my side... what more could I ask for?" he thought, his heart filled with appreciation.
When he returned home, he found Keiko busy with something. But she didn't look as cheerful
as usual. "Keiko, what's wrong? You've been in such good spirits lately," Akira asked curiously. "Well, Akira-sama, Konan... she's returned," Keiko said, glancing at him with a hint of
concern.
