Chapter 96 - Waking Up

Shun turned around to look at Hinami who asked the question. He smiled and said, "They're alright, just a little incident I'm about to take care of now"

"Hmm. If you say so." Hinami nodded as Shun assuaged her.

Shun nodded and kept his smile and turned around. His smile dropped from his face and morphed into a frown as he brought out the pills.

The pills were Light gold in color with a faint white coloring around them that made them exude a bright light. It was the size of a bean and one could feel a substantial amount of energy from It.

This energy was neither chakra nor natural energy. It had the components of Senjutsu chakra but was still different somewhat.

'I wonder if they will awaken any other Kekkai Genkai' Shun thought.

Shun had once asked Kaguya if she had any other children as a joke in the past and Laguya didn't find it funny in the least. Shun's reason for asking was due to a certain doubt that has been plaguing him for some time.

In the anime, clans like the Yuki clan, Kaguya clan, and Nara clan, had Kekkai Genkai related to the Otsutsukis, the Kaguya clan with their bone, and Yuki clan with their ice were somehow related to Kaguya while the Nara clan shadow manipulation was used by Mimoshiki in the boruto series.

Shun wondered how they got these abilities since they were not members of the descendants of Kaguya. Uchiha, Hyuuga, Senju, and Uzumaki we're closely related to Kaguya so those were understandable. The rest, however...

Shun explained his reasoning for asking the question as him wanting to know if any weird bloodline will pop out in the future.

Kaguya said, "Of course, bloodlines will pop out. When Otsutsukis plant a chakra seed, the seed sucks out the planet's essence. That means whatever abilities they get originally belong to that planet, the humans of that planet have the potential to awaken those bloodlines but it is randomized and you can't find it until it is awakened."

After hearing this, Shun speculated that it was like the X-gene of the mutants from the Marvel world. They were like coded abilities, written into their genes and certain requirements had to be reached in order to awaken them.

That is to say that the Sharingannand Byakugan are eyes are not characteristic of this planet. The Chinioke's Ketsuryūgan, the Ranmaru guy whose dojutsu can revitalize life force, and Shion dojutsu that can foresee the future are all native dojutsus.

The same applies to all known kekkai Genkai.

As Shun looked at the pills in his hands, he knew that they possessed some amount of energy that could be used for varieties of things.

Shun had planned to give it to Hinami and Ria when they reached their Total Concentration Constant so that she could awaken the Tenseigan if possible for Hinami and further improve her possible kekkai Genkai for Ria if she had any.

As luck would have it, Hinami awakened her Tenseigan when she completed her training but she didn't have the chakra cloak Toneri had.

Ria got a boost to her already budding magnet release and became even more versed in it. She could control everything that had a sliver of iron in it. Blood included. She also learned to fly. This was all done on her own. Truly a genius girl.

With their training bearing fruits, Shun did not need to give them the pills and opted to give it an animal that will catch his interest. Maybe there'd be a mutation or something and he would get his own summoning animal or something. Not that he needed it.

Since then they had been lying idly in his dimension.

Looking at the pills once more, Shun closed his eyes and made a silent prayer to whatever God was listening.

'Please, let this work'

In a fluid motion, he sent the pills into their mouths and sent a telepathic message into their mindscape.

-Nagi, Nami, I hope you both can hear me. If you can, good if you can't then I can only hope... I checked out your condition and found it dire, Nagi your mindscape was too turbulent and Nami, I can only hope you are there somehow.-

-You both would notice a mass of energy being filtered into your system, now I want you both to remember what I usually say about cultivation. I want both of you to find a peaceful way to guide this energy into your mindscape and body.-

-Pass it through all your chakra pathways, then merge it with every form of energy you currently possess in your body. Be it your essence or your spiritual energy.-

-Nami if you can hear me then I want you to mix the energy that left your mindscape and entered your body, then when it is mixed, I want you to move a portion back and mend your mindscape. Then use the rest to form your chakra pool or core, whichever you wish-

-Nagi, I want you to find a way to release all the turbulent energy in your mindscape and mix it with the energy being filtered into your body. Whatever you decide to do with this energy is up to you.-

-This energy is yours for the taking, mold it in whatever way you want. Your mother and I will be waiting for you to wake up-

After saying all this, he opened his eyes and looked at them with a fond smile. He then touched the ground and two wooden beds sprouted up with them both on them.

"They will be alright," Kaguya said from his mindscape.

"I hope so." He replied and then turned around and faced the crowd watching him with varying emotions of which worry, confusion, and uncertainty were prevalent.

"They will be alright. The rest is up to them." He said, his usual calm and soothing smile back on his face.

The four with different Doujutsu looked at him with confused faces as they can't see what was going on in their body. Two though, knew the reason while the other two were still confused.

The ones with strong senses too had the same look. Well except Ashura as he knew what was blocking their senses.

Shun knew their reason for being confused and said.

"I used my domain to cover up their presence, It's nothing serious"

"Domain?"

"What's that?"

"Oh, you two old men haven't seen it before. It's one of the many unique skills I developed and perfected over the years. I covered our area with it to block off the pressure their souls released that moment I released their seals, I then used another domain to block off their spiritual pressure from affecting us inside the bigger domain"

"Just think of them in a subspace inside a subspace"

Shun explained. The two had looks of surprise on their faces before looking around once more and nodding their heads in understanding.

"This is intriguing. To think that it could even block Iff our eyes. Truly intriguing"

Hagoromo said. At this point, he had already opened his Rinne-Sharingan but still couldn't see through the domain fully.

Fully being the keyword. With his Rinne-Sharingan, Hagoromo managed to see some unique chakra construction around which further intrigued him.

"I never imagined spiritual energy alone could be used this way. Ingenious if I must say."

''As expected of my Son-in-law. You should have seen the ridiculous ideas he came up with back then on the moon. This shouldn't even surprise me but instill find myself surprised."

Hamura praised.

The atmosphere shifted from the former tense atmosphere to a rather calm one. Unknown to them, Shun could already manipulate the six senses of everyone in his domain to bring about any changes he desired.

He didn't use it to trick them per se, No, he used it to shift their attention away from the twins. He wouldn't know what to answer should they start asking all sorts of questions like:

'What was that pill?'

'What was that pressure?'

And other such questions. The concept of secret doesn't really exist that strongly in this era. You either answer or you run. Shun always opted for the second option in most cases. After all, you can't always lie to your family now. Can you?

Plus he was the fastest person currently in existence on this planet.

As he was breathing a sigh of relief as no one asked any question worth drawing back their attention back to the twins, he heard.

"So what was that pressure that came over us?"

Shunnwas startled and looked at the asker of the question only to see Indra looking at him with curious eyes.

'This fucker' Shun cursed in his mind.

"There isn't really any problem in telling them what you think now. Is there?" Kaguya asked from his mindscape after a short giggle.

"Well yeah, but still...."

"Just tell them what it is"

"Fine"

After this short conversation, Shun looked at Indra and said, "Well, I think that was pressure from their soul. Their soul was maturing faster than the normal child so Pops opted for me to seal it to an extent which I did. The entire thing being released at once must have caused that pressure."

"Hn. Is that so? It's good that you released it now then, it might have led to a more dire consequence if left as it was." Indra said in a rare moment of concern that made everyone look at him in shock.

Seeing the looks on everyone's faces, he remained stoic while turning his face to the side.

Hagoromo chuckled while the rest were still in shock. Apart from him, Hamura and Shun everyone was still scared of his habits and his aura did nothing to tell them otherwise.

"Anyways, they should be awakening soon," Shun said drawing their attention away from Indra.

They all looked at the twins, lying down peacefully on the wooden bed.

Meanwhile, in their respective body and mindscape, peculiar changes were occurring.
