Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan C.786 - The Secrets of the Caged Bird

Drip… Drip…

The sound of water droplets falling on the stalagmites constantly echoed, as a figure cloaked in black walked through the depths of the dark and damp cave.

This figure–cloaked in black–appeared a little weird, as if… as if it wasn’t a human or animal, but rather a puppet with a mechanical body. The way it moved clearly showed that it lacked any sense of coordination that a human has.

The lack of coordination did not affect its actions. And not long after, it reached the deepest part of the cave.

Although this cave was dark, the figure did not have any problem seeing things around him, as if it was adapted to seeing things at night, and looked at–something that appeared to be–a stone gate in front of it.

The stone gate was very tall easily reaching the height of several humans, and except for the engraving of a giant eye, it didn’t seem to have any carving or inscriptions on it, giving it a sense of mystery that was difficult to resolve.

Despite spending a lot of time, the figure couldn’t figure out anything from the engraving of the giant eye. Not sure what might be behind this giant gate, the figure was helpless, it reached for the small bag tied around the waist and after taking out a parchment it compared the shape of the eye on the door with the eye marking on the map.

“This is really it… but how to open it?” it wondered. In the past few minutes, it has already tried quite a lot of methods but there doesn’t seem to be any information on the map about how to open the gate. After thinking about it for a while, it muttered in realization, “Maybe I should use the eye!”

‘Byakugan!’ and immediately activated the pair of Byakugan in its eye sockets.

With the activation of Byakugan, the figure would see everything around it clearly, but what’s surprising is that it couldn’t see behind the Stone door. It seems that the Stone Door was designed to be able to block Byakugan’s penetrative vision.

But it didn’t matter because as soon as the puppet activated its Byakugan, it soon noticed some odd things in the cave and quickly figured out that it was the mechanism to open the door.

Click!

With a clicking sound, the piece of rock was pushed inside the cavity by the figure, a loud sound echoed through the cave, and a lot of dust fell off of the stone door.

Bang!

Immediately afterward, the tall and heavy ancient stone was opened.

As the gate opened, a very wide interior space became visible to the eyes of the figure surprising it.

“I just hope there won’t be some kind of monster behind.” Muttered the figure nervously as it took a step and slowly walked inside.

“This is?” it had just taken a few steps and it was shocked.

The space on this side of the stone door was completely different from the outside. Although deep underground, it wasn’t dark the space was not dark everything was clearly visible.

At first glance, this place looked like a temple to the figure. There was an altar-like platform at the center with a giant sculpture of an eye placed on the altar, and all around the altar, there were hundreds of statues of people bowing down to the eye sculpture.

After carefully observing everything inside the temple, the figure walked towards the altar with a curious expression. It took a few rounds around the sculpture of the giant eye and people, and muttered, “It’s really a beautiful work of art.”

It was difficult for the figure to explain, but there was this aura around the sculpture that gave it a life-life feeling, as if… as if it was no mere sculpture but a real eye.

Gently stroking the sculpture of the giant eye, the figure couldn’t help but wonder, “Is this the crime that they wanted to hide?”

The figure was a little puzzled at this time, what does a temple with an altar and a few sculptures have anything to do with that? However, the map clearly pointed at this place and based on the information he had read in those ancient scrolls, this is exactly the place… the place where the biggest secret of the clan is hidden.

But now that the figure has come here, it’s nothing but a temple with an altar and a few sculptures. How can this place have anything to do with the ‘secrets’ that they tried to hide? Confused, the figure took out the map and tried to see if he can find any clue on it.

As soon as the figure took out the map, he was shocked to find that the map in his hand was illuminated by the dim light of the temple and some special characters had appeared on it.

After reading the special characters, the expression on his figure became clear and it looked at the sculpture of the giant eye at the center of the altar, and muttered, “So this it!” Now he has understood everything.

He walked towards the sculpture of the giant eye, weaved some hand signs, and then pressed on its surface as he transferred his chakra into it and said, ‘Open!’

Immediately, the surface of the sculpture crumbled as if it were mere sand, and what appeared before the figure deeply shocked him.

“This is it… supreme tressure of my Clan… the Tenseigan!” he exclaimed, in shock and ecstasy as he looked at the bright golden eye that illuminated the temple. It looked beautiful and powerful as it is the most beautiful thing in the world and contains the power to destroy this whole world!

In ecstasy, the figure reached out and touched the Tenseigan. Immediately, a huge amount of information entered the figure’s brain.

“Ahhhhhh!” Even for him, this sudden influx of information was too much and caused him to roar in pain. After a while, the pain subsided, and the figure–now knowledgeable about things–muttered in pity, “It’s a pity that such power was sealed here, with this we could have…”

It was really absurd.

With the power of Tenseigan, they could have dominated the entire Shinobi World. What Senju? What Uchiha? Those clans are unworthy, it would have been only Hyuga if the ancestors didn’t hide away this tressure in this place!

The figure shook his head and looked at the Tenseigan.

Now he also knows that this piece of tressure is the core of ‘Caged Bird’ Juinjutsu.

“No wonder no one in this Shinobi World has succeeded in breaking the ‘Caged Bird’. To break that cursed seal, there are only two methods… they would have to either destroy this Tenseigan, or they would have to be more powerful than Tenseigan… No one has found the Tenseigan up to now and…” he doubts anyone could be more powerful than the power of Tenseigan.fr(e)enovelkiss

Therefore, it makes sense that ‘Caged Bird’ Juinjutsu is unbreakable.

What he didn’t know was that even being more powerful than this Tenseigan wouldn’t help in breaking the ‘Caged Bird’ Juinjutsu. Hyuga Kuroto is the prime example. When Kuroto activates his Tenseigan, he can bypass the ‘Caged Bird’ but when he deactivates the Tenseigan, he is again vulnerable to the ‘Caged Bird’ making it clear that being more powerful than this Tenseigan would only allow one to by-pass the cage, it wouldn’t be permanent, only temporary.

Such is the power of ‘Caged Bird’ Juinjutsu. Once a Hyuga shinobi is marked, not even death can free them, perhaps only the destruction of Tenseigan can give Hyuga people the freedom that they desire.
