Hashirama's transformation imdiately stunned everyone present, especially Tsunade.
She quickly realized that her grandfather had awakened the Tenseigan, an advanced evolution of the Byakugan of the Hyūga Clan.
But that only deepened her confusion.
What exactly was going on?
Was her grandfather now considered a mber of the Senju Clan, or had he sohow beco part of the Hyūga Clan?
Even Neji, watching from the side, was shocked. As soone who had also awakened the Tenseigan, he could clearly sense the pressure radiating from Hashirama's bloodline.
It was vastly stronger and far nobler than his own.
The feeling was like an ordinary beast facing the king of beasts—a tiger.
This was pure bloodline suppression.
And it was far stronger than that of a normal Tenseigan wielder.
If soone didn't know Hashirama's background, anyone seeing his current appearance would probably think he was an Ōtsutsuki.
Or rather…
At this point, he practically was one.
At the sa ti, the surrounding forest began to grow wildly. Trees expanded rapidly in every direction.
Naruto understood exactly what was happening.
This was the leakage of Hashirama's imnse life force.
Naruto did not stop it. Instead, he allowed it to continue.
For this land, it was a blessing.
After today, this place would likely beco a treasure land, overflowing with vitality.
A perfect place for cultivation.
At the sa ti, Madara was undergoing his own transformation.
It was similar to what had happened to Kaguya in the past.
The Rinnegan in his eyes began to change, developing tomoe patterns.
Madara's Rinnegan had evolved.
A tomoe Rinnegan had appeared.
At the sa ti, another eye opened on his forehead.
A Rinne Sharingan.
With it, Madara could simultaneously use the abilities of both the Sharingan and the Rinnegan. All of his powers were strengthened and enhanced.
Just like Hashirama, a single horn grew from Madara's forehead.
The two of them now possessed bloodlines purer than those of ordinary Ōtsutsuki clan mbers.
Such purity was enough to make many Ōtsutsuki feel envy, jealousy… and hatred.
The news of the Ninja World's victory had already spread throughout the Shinigami Clan.
What surprised many was how easily the Ninja World had won.
This result shocked the clan and also eased much of the confusion surrounding the agreent between them and the Ninja World.
Defeating that war-crazed madman of the Ōtsutsuki Clan was not sothing ordinary mbers of the Shinigami Clan had the qualifications to comnt on.
After all—
The strong have the right to speak.
Upon receiving the news, Yushento couldn't help but feel pleased.
He had already anticipated this outco.
After all, if Naruto could defeat him, then defeating soone slightly weaker than him was nothing surprising.
At the sa ti, the Ninja World's victory silenced several dissatisfied elders of the Shinigami Clan.
Because of this, the clan's attitude toward the Ninja World began to change.
"Have you really decided?"
"That's right. We will buy the Ninja World another ten years."
"Yushento, are you really that optimistic about the Ninja World?"
The elders of the Shinigami Clan were holding another eting.
This eting had been proposed by Yushento.
"I'm not optimistic about the Ninja World," Yushento said slowly.
"I'm optimistic about that man."
"In ten years, I believe he can create a miracle."
Since the two sides had already beco allies, Yushento had decided to help them one more ti.
Thinking of this, a faint smile appeared on his lips.
Originally, the Shinigami Clan had only intended to use the Ninja World to weaken the Ōtsutsuki Clan.
They had never truly expected the Ninja World to achieve even a temporary victory.
If the Ninja World were destroyed, they could simply reclaim all the Rinnegan afterward.
As for the alliance they had ford earlier, many elders believed it was nothing more than a temporary asure.
The Ninja World needed their strength.
And the Shinigami Clan needed the Rinnegan.
It was rely a transaction.
So elders even thought the idea of "cooperation" was ridiculous.
The only reason they had agreed was because they feared Naruto and his group might destroy the Rinnegan out of desperation.
That would have been unacceptable.
In truth, this had been Naruto's original plan—to force the Shinigami Clan into cooperation.
Both sides understood this perfectly.
There had been no need to say it aloud.
But now, Naruto's strength had earned their genuine recognition.
Yushento himself had even begun to admire Naruto.
"Ten years is still too short," one of the elders sighed.
It was Elder Hadō.
He still wasn't very optimistic about the Ninja World.
The Ninja World did have potential. With the power of the Rinnegan, if they were given enough ti, a true god might eventually erge.
At that point, they would beco another peak species in the universe.
"But if that's the case…"
Yushento looked at him calmly.
"Then, Elder Hadō, please lend that item."
Yushento spoke slowly, his tone calm.
But the expression of Elder Maya across from him changed instantly.
"You want the Ti Treasure Pearl?!"
"That's impossible. I cannot give you that!"
Elder Maya's eyes widened in disbelief.
"The Elder Council has already agreed," Yushento replied calmly. "You only need to hand over the item."
Elder Maya's face turned helpless.
So everything had already been settled…
The Ti Treasure Pearl was an extrely precious treasure. It contained a small independent world where the flow of ti could be accelerated tenfold.
It had always been kept under his supervision.
But that did not an the treasure belonged to him.
It belonged to the clan.
He was rely its keeper.
Even Yushento himself did not fully understand why he was helping the Ninja World so wholeheartedly.
But deep within his heart, a voice seed to be telling him sothing.
Helping them would benefit him in the future.
Since the Elder Council had already approved the decision, Elder Maya had no reason to refuse any longer.
With a reluctant expression, he handed the Ti Treasure Pearl to Yushento.
"Rember," Elder Maya said seriously, "you must return it in ten years. Do you understand?"
His expression was full of concern.
If this treasure were lost, it would be a devastating loss for the clan.
"Understood," Yushento replied.
After receiving the Ti Treasure Pearl, he turned and left.
The eting soon ended.
Not long after Yushento departed, about ten thousand li away, a tall figure silently watched him.
The distance was nothing to such an existence.
The figure's eyes seed to contain a forming universe.
They resembled black holes—one glance was enough to pull a person's consciousness into endless darkness.
A faint voice echoed through the void.
"I wonder… whether you can break the shackles of this epoch."
The whisper faded into silence.
No one heard it.
anwhile, back in the Ninja World, everyone was watching Hashirama and Madara with excitent.
Their bodies trembled slightly.
The hardened scabs covering their skin gradually fell away, revealing flawless skin beneath.
Both n had already been handso before.
But now, they possessed an indescribable noble aura.
"Big brother, how do you feel?"
Tobirama asked nervously while looking at Hashirama.
Hashirama's appearance had changed slightly. His expression now carried a cold, almost divine nobility.
However, the mont he spoke, that entire aura collapsed.
"Damn, this feels amazing! I've never felt this comfortable before!"
It was like watching a noble young master suddenly turn into a street thug.
All that dignity vanished instantly.
"But… I don't really like this appearance."
Hashirama frowned as he sensed the changes in his body.
Although he looked even more handso than before, the horn growing from his forehead felt extrely strange.
With a single thought, his body began to change.
Monts later, he returned to his original appearance.
The horn disappeared completely.
However, there were still subtle differences.
His features had beco slightly sharper, his complexion a bit paler, and his aura far more refined.
Naruto was not surprised.
At this level of power, a person could already adjust their own genetic structure to a certain extent.
Minor changes would not affect their essence.
After all, appearance was nothing more than a layer of skin.
