Chapter 275: Control of Ability
Ryosuke was a man of balance.
His personality and emotions remained steady and controlled.
Even though he harbored an insatiable hunger for strength and an intense desire to battle—
He was not like those mindless war addicts who lost themselves in the thrill of combat.
During a fight, his blood surged and his fighting spirit ignited.
His body heated up with the rush of combat.
But his soul stayed calm. His mind remained cold, and his thoughts, calculated.
Ryosuke's way of fighting was grounded in precision.
He gathered intelligence, analyzed every possible attack, defense, dodge route, and movement pattern of his enemy—
Then fought flawlessly.
Even if the opponent was stronger—so strong it bordered on crushing—
He would always find a way to compensate.
That's why Ryosuke rarely encountered an enemy he could not overcome, or a moment where he felt truly at a loss.
It was as if everything was under his control, as though he always had a plan.
Deduction and prediction were the compass that guided his preparation.
Yet even so, errors could still occur.
There had never been a moment completely outside his control, but the possibility was always there.
And now…
That weakness had finally been resolved.
"Precognition."
For the first time, Ryosuke let his emotions overflow without restraint—despite being in a foreign, desolate place.
He lay flat on the soil at the moon's core, surrounded by pitch-black emptiness, yet nothing could extinguish the fire burning in his heart.
At last—he had taken control over the ability to foresee the future.
Moments ago, by channeling power through the enhanced Tenseigan, he had successfully glimpsed his own future along the great river of time.
And for Ryosuke, this was an unprecedented breakthrough.
Though his power hadn't ascended, this ability had already allowed him to exceed its limits.
To see the future proactively…
It meant the power to reshape fate itself—to walk forward like a god among mortals, omniscient and omnipotent.
Unlike a time traveler who distorts history and unravels timelines until chaos ensues, Ryosuke's ability was cleaner, complete.
No matter how the timeline might change, he could continue using foresight to stay ahead—always prepared.
Before, he had passively glimpsed possible futures and made changes based on what he saw.
But that required immense time and effort—gathering intelligence, increasing his margin for error, and calculating safe moves.
Now, he could act freely and actively.
No longer was he bound to deducing probabilities. Now he could directly see what each choice would lead to—what every decision would cost.
If his thoughts changed now—if he suddenly chose not to unseal Kaguya Ōtsutsuki—
Then his foresight would instantly shift, showing him an entirely different outcome.
And with enough processing power, he could trace countless paths and select the optimal future every time.
To confirm it, Ryosuke remained in the depths of the moon for a long while.
After his body, mind, and chakra had fully recovered, he triggered his precognition again.
And just as he had expected, the vision changed.
He was no longer focused on breaking the seal, but instead saw himself returning safely to the Ninja World.
In the time between planets and across weeks of distance, he returned—only to discover three days had passed.
The Land of Water, broken into scattered islands during the battle, had begun to stabilize. The sea had calmed, and the volcanoes nearby had gone silent.
Aside from the lives lost, the world itself was returning to equilibrium.
The ninja coalition forces from the Great Nations had begun withdrawing—slowly, cautiously—shell-shocked by the battle they had just witnessed.
But Ryosuke paid little mind to them.
As for Uchiha Madara… once Ryosuke left the Ninja World, his body became a battlefield of conflicting forces.
The consciousnesses of Black Zetsu, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, the Sacred Tree, and the Ten-Tails all resided within him.
He couldn't even control his own body anymore. Even if he felt shame, he was powerless to resist.
Still, Ryosuke had no real concern for Madara.
His attention shifted to Hinata, still in the Land of Rain.
The fight between Ryosuke and Madara, and the resurrection of the Sacred Tree, had shaken the entire Ninja World—
And the Land of Rain was no exception.
Thankfully, Ryosuke had made preparations in advance.
There were no casualties within the Hyūga clan.
Only areas outside the capital were affected by the encroaching vines of the Sacred Tree.
Thanks to Ryosuke's foresight, Hinata had made advance preparations for post-war recovery.
She began recruiting capable talents to restore the Land of Rain strength.
The damage caused by the destruction of Amegakure had been patched. New teams were assigned to the lumberyards, farms, and mines.
However, the sheer magnitude of the war had left the entire world in fear.
Before Ryosuke's return, Hinata chose not to act beyond maintaining stable development.
But his return changed everything.
Like a weight anchoring the heart of the Hyūga clan, his presence steadied them—allowing them to stretch their wings again and compete for power.
After witnessing Ryosuke's might, other forces became timid during negotiations, willingly offering heavy concessions.
Yet the Hyūga didn't conquer the world as many expected.
Instead, they retreated, choosing to remain in the Land of Rain.
…
Time passed slowly.
When Ryosuke finally gasped and pulled himself free from foresight, the vision faded—and reality returned.
He was still on the moon.
He had not returned to the Ninja World.
He had not seen Hinata or his family.
"So this… is what it means to control your fate…"
His voice was low, his tone a mix of awe and exhaustion.
The memories of the future he had seen overlapped in his mind with the moment he now lived in.
"But the difference in consumption… between the two uses…"
It was then that Ryosuke noticed it.
In Ryosuke's prediction, the time consumed in the real world remained unchanged.
The chakra and pupil power consumed during the process were also the same.
However, while the consumption was identical, the scope of what he predicted differed drastically.
Previously, he had entertained the idea of destroying the moon to unseal Kaguya Ōtsutsuki. The timeline he foresaw spanned no more than half a day. Adding rest and recovery, the total duration was a single day.
But this time, the vision he received was far longer.
When he chose to abandon the unsealing plan and return to the Ninja World instead, the future extended for thirty-five full days and nights.
In the shorter vision, Ryosuke didn't even experience the strain of space pressure—his precognition ended early due to insufficient chakra.
Yet the longer vision, which lasted over a month, continued until he could no longer bear the burden of foresight and was forced to exit due to mental exhaustion.
Two futures. Same chakra consumption. Different results.
Why?
Ryosuke felt the urge to test the answer immediately.
He wasn't concerned about the situation back home—he already knew everything in the Rain Country was stable. There was no need to rush.
Sitting down in silent meditation, he refined his chakra and let his body recover.
Once his strength had returned to its peak, Ryosuke entered precognition again—this time choosing the same course as the first attempt: to forcefully unseal Kaguya Ōtsutsuki.
As his consciousness faded, his eyes grew deeper and darker.
…
Time passed.
He woke again—gasping, weak, collapsed on the ground. His expression dazed, his body thinner than before, almost as if hollowed out.
"Same choice, same effort… but a completely different outcome."
Memories of his third foresight replayed in his mind, and a sense of weight settled on his heart.
"Even though I gave it my all this time… I failed to break the moon's core seal. I didn't manage to release Kaguya like I did the first time."
"Before I could reach the final moment, my body collapsed under the pressure of the universe. I had no choice but to exit early."
"The power I used was identical. But the results… were not."
As expected, controlling the future was not as simple as he once believed.
So what was different between the first successful foresight and this failed replication?
While his body recovered, Ryosuke reviewed the memories in his mind.
And soon, he saw it clearly.
There were two major differences between the first and third attempts at predicting the same future.
First—the timing of the attack was different.
During the latest foresight, the operation was delayed by two days due to energy depletion from prior testing. Because of this delay, the positions of nearby celestial bodies had shifted.
This time, when Ryosuke attacked the moon, the gravitational conditions caused by the stars were no longer the same.
The result?
The pressure from the universe increased—enough to crush his body before he could complete the seal-breaking attack.
Second—his mindset and willpower had changed.
The first time, Ryosuke was uncertain. He fought desperately, unsure of the outcome.
But now, knowing he had once succeeded, he entered with overconfidence—expecting the same result.
That belief, that lack of doubt… ironically weakened his will.
And in those final moments, it cost him.
Had his resolve matched that of the first vision, he might've endured a few seconds longer.
And those seconds could've made all the difference.
These two revelations brought Ryosuke to a startling truth:
Even if one sees the future… it doesn't guarantee the ability to replicate it.
Knowing what lies ahead isn't enough.
To walk the path of a predicted future, one must match it perfectly—
Not just in action, but in timing, mindset, and intent.
Even a one-second delay could change everything.
For Ryosuke, this reality was sobering.
He could not immediately replenish his chakra and attack with the same power in the exact moment he exited foresight.
He couldn't perfectly imitate his future self.
This ability—amazing as it is—has limitations.
It could not yet be used for critical, time-sensitive events.
It was only reliable in situations with a fixed or stable timeframe.
Reluctantly, Ryosuke stepped out from the moon's core and returned to the surface palace.
The exploration was done. There was no point in retracing his steps.
Standing atop the moon, he faced the vastness of space.
From here, the galaxy stretched endlessly—bright, cold, silent.
It felt like fate itself, staring back at him… mocking him.
Mocking the man who dared to unravel its secrets.
Ryosuke chuckled bitterly. He wasn't discouraged.
He had simply been too eager.
The trajectory of fate was not something so easily mastered.
He had gained power—but lost sight of his caution.
If it were really that simple, the Ōtsutsuki would've already conquered the universe by now.
Precognition was merely a window into the future.
To make use of it—truly make use of it—required something more.
It was a test of the user's comprehension, execution, and most importantly—restraint.
Thinking this, Ryosuke's eyes gradually steadied.
From dull confusion to sharpened focus.
And then… he couldn't resist.
One more foresight.
Light filled his eyes. Then dimmed.
A storm of memories rushed into his mind, all tied to the future he had just glimpsed.
This time, he understood something new.
"Foreseeing the future… consumes more than chakra and vitality."
When he awoke, Ryosuke was still gasping.
The truth of it settled in.
This ability—it was too profound.
Every glimpse left him with more questions than answers.
And each time, he couldn't help but seek again.
In this vision, he had again chosen to return to the Ninja World.
But the predicted timeline had extended to three entire months.
For three months, he did nothing.
He merely watched the changes in the world unfold.
He did not speak to anyone—not even his family.
"I wonder… maybe the length of the vision is influenced by how much I change fate," he muttered to himself.
"Maybe… it's about how many people are involved."
Ryosuke made the guess instinctively.
