Chapter 262: Divine Heaven (2)
—
Despite Tsunade's internal musing, Neji didn't plan to abandon the village now that she had chosen him. But it was true he would have turned around and left if she hadn't run back to him.
In any case, Konoha was for later, Neji prime was now checking out his quest rewards.
He had realised only after the hunt had ended that he didn't get any quests for Pain. Right when he did realise, though, Sisty popped up a quest that had already been completed, in front of his eyes.
[I just thought you'd appreciate doing what you did for Tsunade out of your own free will rather than the possibility of you doing it for the quest. I have also blocked most of the level-up pop-ups. I won't do it again if you are displeased.]
Displeased? Far from that. He was rather touched. She worked hard in taking care of him.
He had earned 78 levels for Hiruko's subordinates' deaths, 92 from destroying the entire Rain (along with Hidan), 30 from Konan and 52 from Nagato (his Pains included). When he killed the Pains, he got levels, surprisingly, similar to when he killed Kisame and Itachi clones— however, when he killed Nagato in person, he gave far fewer levels than what a Low-Tier-11 enemy should give. So it seemed that although 'clones' made by the Rinnegan gave levels, it sucked the user's personal 'level-up essence' so it was kind of fair trade in the end.
With that, he had reached Level-985 there, and another 30 from the quest, making him touch Level-1015. Since he was in his Level 700s before, by reaching 1000s he had passed three hundreds, and therefore earned three more skills from his Voidmancer Class besides the [Dark Vision].
First was his 9th Voidmancer skill, [Darkness Adaptation: a passive skill; allows the user to adapt to dark environments, and increase his senses to match such environments. Such as at night time.]
Second was his 10th and possibly the second strongest skill after Blackflame, [Darkness Cutting: the user can project darkness/shadows in a way that allows him to cut through matter from a distance. Although this attack does usually slash damage, the user is able to focus it on a single piercing stab like an immaterial bullet.]
Third was [Zap: A tiny short release of darkness/shadow to cause pain or discomfort, usually too low-powered to be destructive.]
His Voidmancer class was level 10 now, with 11 skills (as [Blank] was a starter skill).
Since he had passed a 500 in his level, touching beyond Level 1000, he had earned another divinity as well. Namely, [Lightning of Heavenly Tribution], that was the divinity's name. It was the ability to create/manipulate fancy magical lightning. He appreciated it since it may strengthen the Jutsu, ‹Lightning Cloak› greatly. A thing to look into later.
As for the quest, it gave him 30 levels, which was somewhat little but the other rewards made up for it. Other than the regular HP, SP, and MP potions, he received ten Energy Potions, the ones that Shukaku had dropped. When taken, they could increase Chakra/Mana permanently. He even got five Tier Potions, his first ones since coming to this world. Most importantly, he received a Title.
[Title: Damsel in Distress? Not with me around.
Details: The troupe that Juliet always needs to be saved by Romeo is far more common than you may think, yet most Romeos do not succeed in reality. You, however, are an exception. If any of your girls were to fall into the hands of danger, you'd always come and save them, if any of your girls get bullied, you'd always avenge them! May everyone keep that in mind before targeting what belongs to you, because if they don't... they better be strong.
Effect: When fighting for a female—even if she's not your girl—you get a 2x boost in all stats until the task is done.]
That was honestly more of an honourable title, rather than important. This was a warning to everyone that they shouldn't mess with his girls (even though people couldn't possibly know he had such a title).
Next was his eyes, namely the Tenseigan add-on.
===
Quirk: Lord's Eye
Level: Four (4)
Details: Originally named the "Eyes of the Lord", later evolved into this after merging with the essence of the user's Byakugan.
–The ability to Copy any physical movements or technique on and below the ranks of [Low-Divine], as long as the user sees it with his eyes. However, the copied ability isn't permanent.
–Heightened Precision.
–Ability Set of the [Tenseigan].
===
Clicking on the last line, the abilities that he possessed of Tenseigan expanded in front of his retina.
===
Sub-Power: Tenseigan, the eye of Reincarnation
Details: An eye that can only be earned by mixing Hyuga Chakra with Divinity.
–The abilities of a pure [Byakugan]. Can see up to 100 kilometres in all directions.
–The ability of [Flight]. Can be temporarily shared with others by touching them with that intention.
–The ability of [Attraction-Repulsion] and the similar but much more versatile [Telekinesis]
–The ability to initiate [Tenseigan Mana Mode].
–The ability to use [Six Paths Mana].
–The ability to summon 10 [Truth Seeking Orbs].
–The ability to perform the signature jutsu of Tenseigan, the [Empyrean Rebirth Technique]
===
He was worried that the abilities will be less than when he and Kurai fused since the Divinity should be stronger then, but luckily it had all abilities he remembered while fusing.
'But not enough.' Neji thought as he slipped his hand inside his system and took out a water jar where a single eyeball floated. 'Time to assimilate the Rinnegan with it.'
He had left one eye beside Nagato for Obito to use, since otherwise Neji himself would have to do all the dirty work that he shouldn't need to do so given the free labour named Obito Uchiha. He brought one eye with him though, and he was pretty sure this alone would give him both Rinnegans.
Neji uncapped the jar and touched the eye. Unlike Quirks, which didn't have a specific power source inside the body and therefore needed the whole body intact for «Mine» to work, the Dojutsus of Naruto world were different. He felt his power click with the eye and with a mental command he felt the chakra, the essence of Rinnegan rush to his body.
[Ding! You have mined the Kekkei Genkai, Rinnegan - Level 6!]
[Ding! Rinnegan is reacting with the Tenseigan side of Master's quirk- "Lord's Eye"! The reaction is unstoppable! Please be prepared for unforeseen change!]
[Lord's Eye is evolving!]
Suddenly, Neji's eyelids twitched rapidly as he closed his eyes, a splitting pain emerging from his eyes as he hissed sharply, feeling something change within his eyes.
A minute of hissing later, the pain slowly subsided as he huffed for a breath.
Weird.
Neji grabbed a mirror and looked at his face.
"Ah...Huh."
But beautiful.
"...Sisty, report."
[Yes, master. The Rinnegan you Mined out had the Chakra of Sage of Six Path, which intertwined with the Sage's brother, Hamura's Chakra that was inside the Tenseigan, thus recreating the chakra of these two brother's birth mother, Kaguya Otsutsuki. That thereafter reacted with Master's strong divinity and gave birth to the Pure Eye that is seen in the mirror – the Jōgan.] Sisty explained.
The Jogan. Theorised to be the originator of all the Doujutsus.
As blue as the ocean, and as shiny as the sun. As he looked at his face in the mirror, Neji was surprised to say this himself, but his new eyes looked more beautiful than his previous pair.
Sisty continued. [Otsutsukis, in general, are lesser-divine beings. As in, only their eyes have divinity so they aren't a "God". However, what I gather from your 1st life's memories says that there is an "Otsutsuki God"? Assuming he truly is a God and has a proper divinity, unlike his subjects, that being is similar to you as you are a God as well. So it's not so weird for you to gain the Jōgan — which originally is the eye of this Otsutsuki God.]
That made sense. "Thanks. Show me the details for this eye."
Sisty did.
===
Ability: Jōgan
Level: One (1)
Details: Originally named the "Lord's Eye" which then intertwined with Rinnegan and your divinity to evolve to this!
Abilities: (7)
–The [Eyes of the Lord] powers.
–The [Tenseigan] powers, along with the ability to see dark chakra and sense dark emotions.
–The basic [Rinnegan] powers.
–The basic [Sharingan] powers.
–The ability to use [Yomotsu Hirasaka].
–The ability to predict the use of any sort of dimensional travel close to the user.
–The Yin-Yang release that allows the user to create things out of nothingness. Can heal most mental and physical wounds of the user—or of a person with whom the user shares his chakra—which in turn makes the user immune to non-divine curses.
*As this Genome Ability levels up, more powers and Dōjutsu will be added to it.
===
"Wow." Neji blinked. "It managed to change the name of the ability from Eyes of the Lord." That was the most surprising part to him.
In all the previous evolutions, the ability name still stuck somewhere around the original, Eyes of the Lord, as it was superior to the other ones. But finally, it was changed. The Jōgan was just that powerful.
As for how the eye worked, in general?
Neji looked at the mirror again. Pushing mana into his eyes, he watched the whites of his beautiful eyes become black, his eyes started to grow, and the world became bright.
In a hundred kilometres radius, he saw everything with the precision of Sharingan and EL. Even the movement of a group of ants carrying a dead fly 99 kilometres away from here didn't escape his eyes.
"Holy shit..."
If he wasn't a God already, he may have felt he became one right at this moment. With the ability to teleport using Yomotsu Hirasaka, which may be somewhat slower than FTG yet was easier to use, Neji was basically Omnipresent in his 100-km radius. Nothing escaped his eyes.
Really, was he the God of eyes now?
[Ding! Due to certain conditions meeting, the Divinity [Lord of Eyes] has been unlocked!]
[Divinity: Lord of Eyes
Effects: All abilities related to eyes get a minor enhancement, offensive or otherwise.
**Divinities' effects grow stronger the stronger the user's divine authority increases.]
Suddenly, he could see 105 kilometres all around.
"...Okay."
Neji shrugged and ignored it. No point in wowing over this, he had another job to do.
To bring the souls of recently deceased Konoha citizens into his Divine Heaven. It can't be empty, after all.
