Well, I made it. The cluster began to pulse more intensely, and an uncomfortable pressure built in my lower abdomen. I'd better not overdo it, or I might burn my chakra channels, and that would be the end. Or what happens if I push the chakra source to extreme limits? Damn, it started to bend like it was convulsing. I'm such an idiot. The box opened much more simply than I thought. I didn't need to stretch and force it. All I had to do was mentally touch the point with the tip of my finger. That's it, the process started. I'm pulling a thin thread upward. Oh, it's bending a lot. And, interestingly, every bend is accompanied by a slight sting of pain. It feels like someone is pulling on something inside me. I hope it doesn't snap. I'm already drenched in sweat, my lip is bitten raw. I don't care, I'll manage. Pull, thread. The feeling of wooden clamps on my shoulder? Whatever! There's contact! Oddly enough, aside from a mild burning sensation in my eyes and the feeling of stretched skin above my nose, everything feels normal. Alright, I can open my eyes now.
Opening my eyes, I witness a true masterpiece. I've never seen the effect of the Byakugan with just life chakra before. That pesky entity had shown me all three types of chakra at once. But there was definitely something to look at. The 'bird' standing a step away from me, his hand gripping my shoulder, is covered in a pattern of numerous threads. There are also many small spheres. Heh, one of the spheres is under my right clavicle, right where Hizashi 'glided' me with his juken. So that's what tenketsu are like... Aside from this, there are also larger clusters. Well, I get it now. The head, solar plexus, kidneys, and liver. With the Byakugan of life, I can see the centers of chakra. As for the true Byakugan, it showed everything in colors. As I understand it, those colors corresponded to the chakra that was being used most intensely. Now, what's that in the bushes? Turning my head slightly, I spot at least a dozen silhouettes covered in channels. Wow, Danzo brought some backup. Shifting my gaze back to the mask, I part my glued lips.
"Excuse me, 'Bird'-san, could you remove your hand? It hurts. " - Well, it's your move, gentlemen. Hizashi, with a frozen expression, steps toward me, his fury breaking through the emotionless mask. The emotions crash into the area in front of the gates like a tsunami. I guess this is the infamous 'Ki'—the thirst for murder. Was there something on my shoulder? Nah, it was probably just my imagination.
"How interesting, Hizashi-san. At your age, and you can activate the Byakugan without seals?" - And now Danzo speaks up. His first words. I focus my gaze on the bandaged face, struggling to keep my jaw from dropping. Oh, what a tangle of threads around his left eye, which is covered with bandages. Wait a second... So, that's you, transplanted and thus always active, Sharingan. Curious, do the Hyuga experience this too when activating the Byakugan? I'll have to ask Hizashi to activate his eyes.
"Very good, young man." - Damn, he noticed me staring openly at his left eye. -" I think we'll meet again. And we'll have a conversation. " - H-huh. He leaves. Movement is also visible in the bushes as they retreat along the wall. Something about this Konoha doesn't sit well with me. I feel like I'm in for flying bricks, poison mushrooms in ramen, and falling poorly baked loaves of bread from rooftops.
"Students, meeting tomorrow in front of the Hokage's tower at nine o'clock. Akira-chan, try to keep the Byakugan activated longer, but supply less chakra, now that you've activated it—practice, since life chakra consumption in basic mode is very low. Now, we're going home. "- Oh, God... The last thing I need right now is explaining things to the clan elders and personally to Hizashi's brother, Hiashi... This day is going to be fun, I just have to survive it. A strong male hand grabs my little, very childlike one. And we go.
