Naruto: The Strongest Sage.

The eyes that Hyuga Hiashi gave to Aoba were all from the main family. This was almost unimaginable for the Hyuga clan.

Qingye was not polite. The research on Sharingan had reached a bottleneck, so it was natural to turn to Byakugan.

It’s a pity that he is now blind and a lot of research can only be done by laboratory assistants.

The Byakugan is different from the Sharingan.

The Sharingan has many abilities, including dynamic vision enhancement, illusion enhancement, illusion rebound, and even the unique ability of the Mangekyo.

All of these abilities require one's own chakra and the unique power of the Sharingan to be realized.

But the Byakugan is different. The Byakugan has only one ability, which is to enhance vision.

This kind of enhancement is comprehensive. Dynamic, static, and even perspective effects. Taken together, it is the special effect of the white eyes.

This special effect is more of a biological effect.

That’s right, according to laboratory research, these effects of the white eyes are more derived from the special structure at the biological level.

This is also an important reason why almost all members of the Hyuga clan can open their Byakugan. As long as the bloodline is continuous, every member of the Hyuga clan has this special physiological structure. As the body grows, it is almost natural for the Byakugan to open.

This is also the reason why Byakugan rarely mentions pupil power. Because Byakugan's special effects are not achieved by pupil power.

But not relying on pupil power to accomplish it doesn't mean there is no pupil power. According to laboratory research, there is a special chakra inside the Byakugan. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be the pupil power of the Byakugan.

However, this kind of pupil power is in an inert state. Not only is it hidden tightly, but even if it is noticed, it has no effect at all.

Aoba tried to use chakra to stimulate the pupil power inside the Byakugan, but it only caused the Byakugan's biological form to change.

That is, the Byakugan is open. It has almost no effect on the special inert chakra inside the Byakugan.

The Hyuga clan members were not unaware of this. At least Hiashi knew about it. He told Aoba that in the early years, the Hyuga clan members had also tried to advance the Byakugan.

But in the end, all failed. The pupil power inside the Byakugan seemed to be just a manifestation of incomplete evolution, without any effect at all.

Qingye didn't think he could surpass the Hyuga clan's own research in this area in a short period of time, so he shifted his goal to biological research.

The structure of the Byakugan is very complex, even more complex than the Sharingan. And it does not completely use chakra.

When transforming the form, a certain amount of chakra needs to be injected before it can be activated.

The opening of the Sharingan requires the stimulation of mental power, while the fusion of the Eternal Eye relies on some kind of completion.

So Aoba's initial goal was to find out whether the Byakugan was the same as the Sharingan.

This was not an easy task. It took the laboratory a full month to complete the analysis of the white eyes.

The final answer is yes. Byakugan is indeed imperfect and there are areas that need to be improved.

Aoba deduced that after the Byakugan was completed, it should be the Rinnegan that appeared in the plot.

It’s a pity that how to make up for the white eyes is still an unknown problem.

Hinata Hiashi is also very concerned about the research on the Byakugan and often comes to the laboratory to inquire about the progress.

"We once tried to fuse the Byakugan, but it was unsuccessful. There is a strong repulsion between different Byakugan, and they cannot be fused at all. In order not to waste the Byakugan, the Hyuga clan stopped this experiment a long time ago."

Hiashi's words basically blocked the path of fusion. But Aoba was unwilling to accept this because he knew something that the Hyuga clan didn't know.

That was the giant Samsara Eye on the moon. He remembered that the giant eye was obtained by fusing the Byakugan.

However, the plot does not give a detailed explanation of how the fusion is carried out.

But he also has an idea. To advance the Mangekyō Sharingan, there are bloodline conditions, which means that the Mangekyō of a blood relative is required to complete a certain kind of completion.

There should be some special limit to the advancement of the Byakugan. This limit must be found and overcome before the Byakugan fusion can be completed.

But what exactly the limitations are still needs to be tested bit by bit.

Aoba's behavior of staying in the lab all day soon caused dissatisfaction, mainly among Tsunade and Yumi.

Especially Tsunade.

Because every time Aoba entered the laboratory, no one helped her handle official business. Even her former best friend Shizune now began to stay out all night and spend every day with Kakashi.

Tsunade, who got and then lost her great grandfather, was extremely dissatisfied with Aoba's behavior, so she rushed into the laboratory and dragged him out.

"...You are the Hokage, you should pay attention to your image." Aoba always felt helpless when facing Tsunade.

Tsunade is not the soft and gentle type like Yumi. She has a strong and outspoken personality and does things without considering other people's opinions.

"Hey, you still know I'm the Hokage. Then who was it that insisted that I wear the Hokage robe last time..."

He didn't finish his words because Qingye stopped him. He was impressed by this shameless woman who dared to say anything.

After spending most of the day and destroying half of the laboratory, we finally managed to put our Hokage to sleep.

The two of them were lying on the bed in the lounge and talking.

This was a rare scene for the two of them. Tsunade had always treated Aoba as a tool. She would always chase him away after they slept together.

But this time it was different. Aoba could feel that although Tsunade seemed carefree on the surface, there seemed to be something different in her heart.

"Qingye, is it true that Grandpa will never come back?"

"I'm not sure about that. But I have to warn you not to hold out too much hope."

"Why did things turn out like this? Even a powerful man like Great Grandfather couldn't resist?"

"This is not a question of being strong or not. In other words, the strength of Senju Hashirama itself has a strong element of human intervention."

After hearing this, Tsunade was silent for a while, then stood up and lay on Aoba and said.

"Help me, Aoba."

"Didn't I just help?"

"Shut up, that's not what I'm talking about. I need to become stronger, at least when the crisis you mentioned comes, I can deal with it."

"Listen to me, I can..."

"Kamikawa Aoba, listen to me, I am the Hokage. I am the protector of Konoha. If one day a crisis really comes, you should stand behind me."

"...Okay. What do you want to do?"

"I need to upgrade my Hundred Healings Technique. The current Hundred Healings Technique, even if fully unleashed, can no longer keep up with your combat power. Therefore, I need to redevelop and perfect a stronger technique."

"No problem. You can use all the sealing data and resources in the laboratory."

"Very good, now get out of my lab, I need to get to work."

"…But this is my lab."

"It's mine now."

"Tsunade..."

"I am the Hokage!"

boom! ! !
