Chapter 2 Rebirth
It was the height of summer, and cicadas were chirping noisily in the trees of a courtyard. Under the trees, a child of about three or four years old sat cross-legged on the lawn, eyes closed, seemingly asleep and motionless.
Sunlight filtered through the dappled leaves, casting dappled patterns on the child. Suddenly, the child opened his eyes, exhaled a deep breath, and a glint of blue light flashed in his silvery-white pupils. He slowly stood up and stretched his body.
Looking up slightly at the azure sky, she appeared somewhat lonely.
The child muttered to himself, "Sigh! Progress is slow again today. That last bit of consciousness in my bloodline can't be erased so quickly!"
As he spoke, he looked at a 15 or 16-year-old girl standing motionless at the entrance of the courtyard, and his lips twitched slightly.
"Ayako, come in. What's the important matter now?"
"Young Master, the clan chief wants to see you. He says he has something important to tell you and you should be prepared."
"Okay! You can go now. I'm ready and will be there soon." He nodded to the girl at the door and gave her his instructions.
Watching the girl leave, the child looked up at the sky once more.
The child's name was Hyuga Kanan, but he also had another name, Zhang Xiaonan, and his Daoist name was Kanan Daoist. The artificial lightning tribulation at the time did not allow him to break through, but it blasted his body into nothingness. His soul was only able to survive because the ancient jade was protected by the thunderous roar.
The soul also possessed the ancient jade and lost consciousness, drifting in the void with the ancient jade.
After an unknown amount of time, his soul revived and his consciousness returned, only to find that he had been reborn. Gu Yu, on the other hand, remained unresponsive within his sea of consciousness.
For the next year, Zhang Xiaonan's consciousness would occasionally rouse him, but he would quickly fall back into a deep sleep. It wasn't until the second year that Zhang Xiaonan's consciousness finally fully awoke, and his soul power began to recover.
In the time that followed, Zhang Xiaonan became a special baby, extremely sleepy, spending more than four-fifths of the day in a drowsy state, and during his waking hours he also explored the world to some extent.
When she heard her parents speaking in this life, she thought she had been reborn in the land of cherry blossoms. But after a while, when her parents occasionally carried her outside, she saw figures leaping on rooftops and running swiftly with their arms swinging behind them. Most importantly, she saw two portraits on the towering mountain wall.
He confirmed his location—the Naruto world.
In the days that followed, he saw his father in this life, Hyuga Kakugen, with his bright white eyes, and everyone around him had the same white eyes. He also watched his father instructing the twins with white eyes on the fist techniques they used. It was clear that this was the Gentle Fist style of the Hyuga clan.
Zhang Xiaonan was also startled when she heard her parents call the twins Rizu and Richa.
Zhang Xiaonan is now known as Hyuga Kanan, the third son of the Hyuga clan leader.
Thinking back to when I watched this anime, I didn't see or find out that Hyuga Hiashi, Hyuga Hizashi, and their younger brother were there. I was just an extra one. Is this a butterfly effect of time travel or a time-space reorganization?
The reason a cultivator could recognize this as the Naruto world is entirely due to their own arduous cultivation in Earth's Dharma-ending Age. Naturally, they were interested in supernatural events, but after investigation revealed these to be fabrications, they became interested in films and television series featuring energy cultivation systems, wanting to compare their own systems. Naruto, of course, is one such supernatural energy cultivation system.
A powerful spiritual force scanned the surrounding environment. It felt different from its original Earth, because the surrounding energy was so abundant. The spiritual force could clearly sense the fluctuations in external environmental energy, a feeling of exhilaration never experienced on Earth. It was like suddenly arriving in a humid, primeval forest from a hot, dry desert, allowing the soul to become completely immersed in the experience.
Then came waves of ecstasy.
And so, four years have passed in the blink of an eye. Hyuga Kanan, who is now four years old, has not made rapid progress in his cultivation as expected, nor has he quickly recovered to his original Qi Refining Realm level, nor has he learned the Hyuga clan's Gentle Fist.
When Hyuga Kanan first learned chakra refinement and Gentle Fist from his father, he immediately detected a problem with the chakra upon contact with his soul power. He then spent a great deal of soul power meticulously examining every cell in his body, only realizing the severity of the problem just before he fainted.
The extracted chakra and the bloodline of his Hyuga clan both contain the consciousness of another. In other words, the ninja's training system and bloodline inheritance have a master, and a first-order controller at that. The more he cultivates the chakra system, the more he strengthens the master of the consciousness within his bloodline, who can reclaim it at any time if they so desire.
This made Hyuga Kanan think about the origin of chakra.
This world originally did not have the power of chakra; it was Kaguya Otsutsuki who brought it to this planet. She then distributed her chakra to her two children, who rebelled after growing up and sealed her away. Later, her eldest son, Hagoromo Otsutsuki, founded Ninshu and distributed chakra to others, including her own children, thus creating the ninja training system.
Then, after Hagoromo Otsutsuki died, there was endless war and slaughter, a war that lasted for over a thousand years.
However, as we know from the Naruto anime, Hagoromo Otsutsuki did not die and continued to watch over the ninja world. He simply watched as his two sons fought each other, only to be reincarnated and continue the fight.
This is highly abnormal. A person claiming to be a sage, vowing to bring peace to the world, has been secretly watching his two children fight each other without any intention of stopping them, causing endless death and injury to the world. Finally, he casually bestows a little power upon Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha, enabling them to reseal their mother. This power couldn't possibly fail to stop or kill their mother, unless she was unwilling to do so.
Based on the origin of chakra, could it be that Hagoromo Otsutsuki's chakra was not the first owner, but rather his mother? Even if the power he accumulated surpassed that of his mother, he dared not kill her and could only seal her away, probably because he was afraid that his power would lose its source.
The way Hagoromo Otsutsuki accumulated power was probably by having countless ninjas continuously train in the chakra system. Since chakra refinement involves the combination of spiritual and physical energy, and his will is present within that spiritual energy, the refined chakra is essentially his possession.
Instead of forcibly seizing the chakra cultivated by ninjas, he allowed his two children to constantly instigate wars so that these chakra cultivators would die continuously. Perhaps he was afraid that people would discover that the chakra they had cultivated their whole lives was being used to benefit others and thus give up their cultivation.
This method of treating the entire ninja world as one's own nursery, constantly harvesting and improving oneself, is truly unique. Kaguya Otsutsuki's forceful harvesting method was the reason for the rebellion of the Six Paths Sage, Hagoromo Otsutsuki.
......
Therefore, after discovering this problem, Hyuga Kanan immediately used his soul power to slowly erase the will of others in his bloodline, and had no time to cultivate.
"Well, I'm already here, there's no going back now. Besides, as long as I can erase the will in that bloodline, I'll definitely be able to cultivate to a higher realm in this energy-rich world. Maybe I can even reach the realm of immortality, breaking through the void and ascending to immortality," Hinata Kanan thought to himself.
