Chapter 142 - End Seeds

As they spoke, the four remaining elite Hyūga clan Jōnin, along with Hyūga Hizashi and Hyūga Jirō, all felt a heaviness in their bodies.

"Change the gravity of our environment? It's so easy, without any hand seals or special preparations."

I couldn't even see the flow of energy within his body.

Hyūga Hizashi opened his mouth wide, his eyes widened, sweat dripped from his forehead, and he almost fell to the ground.

They wanted to find a weakness in Senju Nawaki, but discovered they had overestimated themselves.

"..."

All members of the Hyūga family behaved similarly to Hyūga Hizashi.

In particular, Senju Nawaki took special care of Hyūga Jirō and Hyūga Hizashi, ensuring that the gravity experienced by other ninjas was only twice that of the ninja world.

The Hyūga Jirō and Hyūga Hizashi differ five times.

Although ninjas in the ninja world are powerful, their physical strength is limited, and they still rely on the extraordinary power of chakra to resist gravity.

This level of restriction is sufficient to limit their actions.

Apart from Senju Nawaki, everyone else was panting heavily, trying to adapt to their new environment.

"Value? What exactly is the value he keeps emphasizing?"

Hinata Jirō and Hinata Hizashi looked at each other again, their eyes filled with helplessness and powerlessness, and the same question flashed through their minds.

The other four elite Hyūga Jōnin seemed to have completely resigned themselves to their fate, collapsing to the ground and looking at Hyūga Jirō and Hyūga Hizashi with pleading eyes.

They are not qualified to participate in an enemy of this caliber, or a battle of this level.

They realized from Senju Nawaki's words that the other party had no intention of killing them at all; everything he did was to unleash their potential.

No!

Now only Jirō remains.

Hyūga Hizashi no longer seems to have any value for development.

"Gravity Space!" Hyūga Hizashi made a firm decision, squeezing out the last bit of strength from his body.

Originally, under three times the gravity, I was trembling and struggling to stand.

With a low growl, he broke free from Senju Nawaki's restraints and shot straight toward Senju Nawaki.

"You have quite the talent. You've already mastered the rudiments of gravity space. If you continue to develop, it might become another gravity sphere."

A rare hint of amazement appeared in Senju Nawaki's eyes.

He began to examine Hyūga Hizashi before him, having already gathered his power and transmitted it to Hyūga Jirō, now rekindling his potential.

His skin was cracked, and blood was seeping from many places. Black lines flowed across his body.

These black lines joined together to form a gravitational space, baring their fangs and claws as they charged toward the Senju Nawaki.

The ground it passed through was annihilated by the gravitational force, leaving a ravine.

"Even if I can't kill you, I can buy time for my people."

Hyūga Hizashi's eyes were filled with determination. He spread his arms and merged his body into the sealing patterns to increase his power.

He no longer sought to harm the Senju Nawaki; his desired effect was to hinder it and buy time for his people to escape.

Senju Nawaki nodded slightly. Having such abilities already proved his worth, and his future achievements would at least reach the level of a sage.

You can arm wrestle with a dead toad.

However, Hyūga Hizashi was dying and did not leave a mark like a toad to allow him to return.

Given his scapegoat nature, he wouldn't want to use the lives of his clansmen or descendants to exchange for his own return to this world.

As agreed, Senju Nawaki should let them leave.

"The final bloom is indeed the most dazzling."

With his gaze fixed on the edge of the battlefield, Hyūga Jirō, along with four elite Hyūga clan Jōnin, attempted to escape during a brief opening.

Hyūga Jirō remains on high alert, ready to sacrifice himself at any moment.

He was unsure whether Hyūga Hizashi could stop the mysterious man.

Senju Nawaki shook his head in disbelief.

The selflessness and dedication of the two to their family impressed Senju Nawaki.

This world is so strange.

Some people are treacherous, like the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi. Despite his immense strength, he never appeared on the front lines, instead sending young Konoha scions to fight for his own benefit.

To deceive the foolish with words and actions, and die in their place.

Some people sacrifice everything for their beliefs, like Sakumo Hatake, the White Fang of Konoha, who ended his life because of a small misunderstanding and rumors that led to the village distrusting him.

Like Hyūga Shichi, who was ready to fight him to the death at any moment, and Hyūga Hizashi, who was already fighting desperately, both of them were far stronger than the Hyūga clan, yet they were willing to sacrifice themselves for the weaker members of the Hyūga clan.

Senju Nawaki harbored even stronger opinions about this twisted ninja world and wanted to change it.

"Is this what the Sage of Six Paths was thinking? These people are too foolish; we must follow our own will."

Senju Nawaki frowned, suddenly realizing that what he was doing might be the same as what the Sage of Six Paths had done.

It turns out that people can never truly understand each other; only the weak submit to the strong.

He shook his head and sighed.

Bang...

With a gentle wave of his hand, Hyūga Hizashi's gravity-filled space, brimming with life force, was crumpled into a ball by Senju Nawaki.

Hyūga Hizashi's dying body was also sent flying backwards, right in front of Hyūga Jirō, who was preparing to leave.

Everything happened too fast, in the blink of an eye, there was no time to evacuate.

Despair filled their eyes.

The Hyūga Jirō moves forward to inspect the condition of Hyūga Hizashi.

A surge of pure energy and a memory once again entered Hinata Jirō's body.

Hyūga Hizashi then completely lost his life.

In his final moments, he transferred all the power he possessed to Hyūga Jirō, ultimately contributing to the Hyūga clan.

This entire scene was witnessed by Senju Nawaki.

Whether it was foolish or great, Senju Nawaki doesn't want to comment.

He has completed all the arrangements for the Hyūga clan.

Jirō's body already bears his mark. He helped Jirō untie the Cursed Seal and left his mark, which still exists today.

He didn't want to be betrayed by his own subordinates one day.

This mark is different from the mark left by the Sage of Six Paths. It is not for seizing everything from others or changing others. After one dies, one can be reborn in the mark.

Senju Nawaki disdained this method of resurrection.
