**************
After shopping for the entire day, Colt returned home with Koyuki and Shion, both of whom were still not entirely satisfied, and eager for more shopping.
Now, they needed a place to stay in.
Fortunately, Colt had anticipated this and made preparations.
A long time ago, Colt had purchased all the surrounding houses and transformed them into a massive mansion.
Otherwise, there wouldn't have been enough space for everyone to stay.
Seeing her son return with two beautiful girls, Mieko smiled with satisfaction, completely ignoring the cold, disapproving gaze of Shin.
Shion, a priestess, and Koyuki, an actress, both had high emotional intelligence.
It didn't take long before they had Mieko laughing and enjoying their conversation.
That night, Mieko sent Colt to the guest room, leaving him scratching his head.
None of the girls stayed with him that night, and even Yakumo had also been taken back by Kurenai.
After washing up and preparing for bed, a crack in space opened, and Kaguya Ōtsutsuki appeared.
Her white eyes glowed faintly in the darkness, a solemn look on her face.
"You now possess Ōtsutsuki chakra..." she said.
"You can sense that?" Colt was surprised.
He hadn't converted all of the chakra into his own power, as he had reserved some for Hinata. However, the chakra shouldn't be detectable.
"It's an intuition among the Ōtsutsuki clan," Kaguya explained softly.
Colt nodded and then began to explain his pupil's techniques and plans.
Kaguya was visibly startled as she realized how terrifying Colt's Rinnegan abilities were.
She retreated a bit in panic.
"What's wrong? You know I'm not interested in your chakra," Colt said, exasperated by her sudden tension.
Kaguya's lips pursed slightly, looking a bit aggrieved.
Nevertheless, she offered, "If you wish to awaken the power in that girl's body, my chakra would be the most suitable."
She added, "Her lineage traces back to Hamura. Her Byakugan's purity is good, but her body is lacking."
"I can fuse some of my chakra, but not too much," she concluded.
Colt rubbed his chin thoughtfully.
Kaguya had a point.
Compared to the Ōtsutsuki clan, Hinata's physical constitution might be considered weak, but among normal people, she was undoubtedly strong.
"Alright, I'll leave Hinata in your care," Colt said as he summoned a ball of light in his hand.
"As for Ishiki's chakra, you can take it as payment."
Kaguya's eyes widened in disbelief. Such a strong power was being offered to her so casually?
"This small amount of power is insignificant to me," Colt explained.
"You lost the chakra of the Nine-Tailed Beasts, so this should help you. But you already know my condition: don't involve yourself with the ninja world anymore."
Kaguya looked at Colt for a moment, then reached out and took the chakra ball.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Her figure faded as she left with a parting comment:
"Understood."
The next morning, Hinata arrived at Colt's house with Hanabi.
Koyuki and Shion, seeing the two Hyuga sisters, grew nervous.
They felt somewhat out of place and subconsciously inferior.
Thankfully, Hinata had a kind and welcoming demeanor.
She had heard Colt talk about Koyuki and Shion, so she greeted them warmly.
Surprisingly, they got along quite well.
But there was a certain troublemaker joining too this time.
"Stupid elder brother! You're such a flirt!" Hanabi, more vocal than her sister, ran up to Colt and playfully hit him with a headbutt to the stomach.
Colt laughed and ruffled her hair.
He wasn't sure if this was Hanabi's way of showing affection or just teasing him.
"Hinata, come inside for a moment," Colt said, gently coaxing Hanabi and leading Hinata
into the house.
Inside, Kaguya was sitting quietly.
"Hello, Kaguya-sama," Hinata greeted her respectfully, attempting to bow, but Colt stopped
her.
"No need to be so formal. Just treat Kaguya like anyone else," Colt reassured her. "Besides, you're my girlfriend. Who in this world dares to ask for respect from you?"
Though his words carried a sense of arrogance, it was hard to argue against them.
Colt was now the uncrowned king of the ninja world, and Hinata's status had risen along with
his.
You can say, besides him, all of his girlfriends came second, none would dare front them or disrespect them. Not after what he had done.
"But... Kaguya-sama is our ancestor..." Hinata's voice wavered, recalling how her father, Hiashi Hyuga, had nearly bowed in reverence upon seeing Kaguya.
"You can call me by name," Kaguya interrupted.
"Yes," Hinata replied seeing that even the person in question didn't mind.
Satisfied with the conversation, Colt spoke again:
"I'll leave the rest to you. Make sure Hinata's safe."
Kaguya nodded, floating over to Hinata and placing her hand gently on her forehead.
Hinata, unsure of what was happening, felt an extremely potent chakra flow into her body.
The chakra already within her seemed to recognize its superiority and began to shrink back. "She is stronger than I expected," Kaguya observed.
Hinata only furrowed her brow slightly, showing that her body could handle the powerful
chakra.
Carefully, Kaguya sent another stream of chakra.
The two chakras began to fuse.
The activation of the Tenseigan required the fusion of a high-purity Byakugan with the
Ōtsutsuki chakra.
As the chakras merged, a powerful energy surged through Hinata's body.
She instinctively opened her eyes, but this time, they looked different. The usual blue hue was fading, and her pure white pupils gleamed with new power.
"Ah!" Hinata gasped, covering her eyes as a tingling sensation made her uncomfortable.
"Relax, Hinata. Your eyes are evolving, and Kaguya's chakra is also enhancing your constitution," Colt said softly, pulling her into his arms.
"Once this process is complete, you'll become far stronger than before."
