Reborn in Konoha; I Think I’m Cultivating Immortality

Chapter 79

Hui’s long lashes trembled slightly, then slowly lifted, revealing a pair of beautiful eyes. 

These eyes were unusually deep, yet they exuded a sense of purity. The combination was mesmerizing, creating a allure that could draw anyone in, rendering them unable to look away.

The pupils of his eyes contracted slightly, and faint patterns seemed to surface within, resembling intricately carved inscriptions or naturally occurring designs. However, the patterns soon faded, and his eyes returned to normal.

Glancing around, Hui quickly recognized the familiar surroundings—this was the Senju Clan's compound, where he had grown up as a child.

"So, I was saved and brought back to Konoha," Hui murmured.

Reflecting on his recent battle, he let out a sigh. "Every Kage-level ninja is indeed extraordinary," he muttered, recalling how he had nearly fallen to Kamizuru Ishigawa’s final move. 

Who could have guessed that Ishigawa’s ultimate trump card would be self-detonation?

For a moment, Hui thought of a certain future blonde boy who constantly shouted, “Art is an explosion!” 

Maybe that boy's inspiration came from Ishigawa, he mused, but he quickly pushed the thought aside and smirked.

"Although I almost died, you could say this was a blessing in disguise," he said to himself, his gaze shifting to the window. The mysterious patterns briefly reappeared in his eyes as he focused his vision outside.

"I can clearly see that stone on the mountain... five kilometers away. Incredible," Hui marveled.

Not only could he see things at a great distance, but his near-sight had also drastically improved. 

He turned his attention to a corner of the room, noting even the smallest specks of dust, things imperceptible to the naked eye.

"Not only can I see far, but I can also perceive even the tiniest details up close," he remarked, continuing to familiarize himself with his new vision.

“And it's not just my vision...”

As a small bird flew past the window, Hui instinctively followed its movement. He could vividly track every motion, every beat of its wings, as if time itself had slowed down.

His perception was beyond anything he'd ever experienced—like the difference between watching a 2D movie and a fully immersive 3D experience. Colors seemed richer, the world sharper, more detailed. Everything seemed clearer.

To put it simply, if the average person’s view of the world was 270p, and his previous perception was standard definition, then now... Hui felt like he was seeing the world in ultra-high definition.

The clarity of it all was simply mesmerizing, like a person with severe nearsightedness suddenly putting on the perfect pair of glasses, or stepping out of a dimly lit room into a brilliantly illuminated gallery.

He smiled as he watched the bird soar through the sky. It was now undeniable—his eyes were no longer ordinary.

The transformation reminded him of something from his past life—divine sight, a power beyond the ordinary.

Heavenly Eye, Hui thought with a hint of amusement.

"I knew I was cultivating something similar to immortality. Turns out I really was!" he chuckled, continuing to explore his abilities.

After some time, Hui made several key discoveries about his new eyes.

First, his vision had improved dramatically. His eyesight was several times better than a normal person’s, allowing him to see far-off objects and detect even the smallest details up close.

Second, his dynamic vision had also evolved. He could now track the movements of fast-moving objects with incredible precision, making it almost impossible to miss anything.

In essence, his eyes had become a hybrid of the Byakugan and Sharingan, though without the Byakugan's X-ray vision or the Sharingan's copying or illusion abilities. 

Nevertheless, it was still an impressive upgrade, and Hui had a feeling his eyes had yet to fully evolve. He suspected there would be even more abilities in the future.

But it wasn't just his vision that had changed—Hui clenched his fists, feeling a surge of power coursing through his body.

His strength had increased significantly, and it felt as though his body was brimming with an immense, untapped energy.

"Not only is my body stronger, but my eyes have also awakened some kind of divine power. I don’t know how long I’ve been unconscious, but my body has undergone a massive transformation. And I can feel it—I have access to far more energy than before!"

Hui marveled at the changes within himself, reveling in the sense of power.

"If I had known that getting injured would trigger such a transformation, I wouldn’t have needed Ishigawa to self-destruct. I would’ve jumped off a cliff myself!" Hui joked to himself. 

If Ishigawa could hear this, he’d probably be furious enough to rise from the dead and try to strangel Hui.

Suddenly, Hui's sharp hearing picked up the sound of footsteps approaching his room.

His senses had also undergone a transformation. Now, when he focused, he could hear all sorts of sounds, and sense things from the surrounding area.

Moments later, the door to his room opened, and one of the Senju clan members entered. 

Seeing Hui awake, the clan member was overjoyed and quickly greeted him before rushing out to report the good news.

Soon, Hui heard several sets of footsteps approaching. Among them was one person moving quickly, their steps light but urgent.

Before long, the door swung open, and a figure rushed into the room, throwing themselves into Hui’s arms.

It was Tsunade. She had come running as soon as she heard that Hui had woken up. Now, she clung tightly to him, tears streaming down her face.

Hui gently patted her back and spoke softly, his heart filled with warmth and a hint of guilt. "Alright, no more crying. I’m fine, see? In fact, this whole thing only made me even stronger."

Although every mission was for the sake of the village, Hui knew he was not alone. If anything had happened to him, it would’ve caused Tsunade great pain and sorrow.

"He’s right, Tsunade. Hui has come out of this ordeal even stronger," Mito Uzumaki said as she entered the room, smiling at the pair.

Behind Mito, Tsunade's parents entered as well, smiling warmly as they looked at their daughter and Hui.

A short while later, Tobirama Senju appeared in the room without warning, his lips curling slightly as he watched the scene before him.

"Alright, enough now. Everyone’s watching," Hui said with a smile, gently patting Tsunade’s back, his tone playful and light.
