The Sharingan Hyuga - Volume 3 Chapter 80 Teiji And Zetsu

After the first meeting with Teiji and Zetsu ended, He returned to the home and sighed when he saw Kurama and Shukaku arguing again while the remaining were ignoring their stupid quarrel.

Matatabi shouted and dashed towards him, “Teiji Nii”. She jumped into his arms and slept peacefully while he’s stroking her back. The remaining ones too instantly jumped at him causing him to fell on his back. He laughed while he’s surrounded by nine of them. Hagoromo also smiled while secretly observing him.

He thought “well, I guess I will wait for another couple of years and will start my journey. He already received the chakra from each of them a little bit. So, later when they were separated, he can become the medium for every Bijuu to meet other siblings”.

The scene once again changed as Teiji is now a 15 years teenager. Just like usual, he went to the forest and shouted “Oi, Zetsu, come out. You know that my Byaringan can see everything, right?”. Zetsu jumped down from a branch of a tall tree. His appearance has changed from back then. With a robe and a hood, he looks more like a 6-7 year small kid if no one sees his face. Zetsu replied, “Teiji, you are here. you took 3 months this time. I was feeling bored. After all, you are the only friend I have”.

Teiji replied, “well, my father is ready to go on a journey while leaving me in charge of the village. There were so many things I’m busy with. Now that all of my Nine siblings going to leave soon in the future, I have no choice but to spend extra time with them other than village matters. Are you still afraid of humans?”.

Zetsu stayed silent. Teiji sighed “fine. I won’t talk about it. So, what did you in these past 3 months?”. Zetsu immediately began to tell his adventures. Later, while he was just about to return, he saw two people cutting down the trees.

Teiji shouted, “Hey you two, stop cutting them”. Both of them turned towards him who is in an Otsutsuki clan’s white robe and seemed pure and harmless and beside him, they saw a little kid in robes and hood. One of them said: “go away from here. Mind your own business, brat”.

Teiji looked at them seriously “don’t you know cutting down trees here is a crime? You two don’t seem to be from here”. The other one immediately attacked them with the ax in their hand. Teiji dodged it with ease while Zetsu who also dodged the attack hit his toe to a stone in the side and fell on his face.

While Teiji helped him up, his hood has gone down revealing his face which surprised the two of them. One of them said “Brother. Isn’t that the creature we saw on the wanted posture? The one Izumo-sama wished to capture?. How about…”.

Teiji looked at them coldly after hearing their words while activating his Byaringan shocking both of them. They immediately ran away as they were scared by his weird eyes. He looked at Zetsu after calming down “be careful. I have a feeling that they will come back”.

Zetsu replied “who do you think I am. No one can catch me you know”. Teiji caught his hood from behind and lifted him. He started to walk away and turned deaf ear while Zetsu shouting “hey you, let me down”.

Shuichi who was witnessing it commented, “is that Zetsu for real? way different in the past. So, what changed him then?”. Hagoromo then replied “or rather what made him remember his goal?”.

The scene changed. Teiji came again to the forest after a few days later, but this time, he didn’t found Zetsu. He scanned the entire forest and found that he was moving with a few humans and almost at the neighboring village entrance.

He ran towards their direction and later found Zetsu was tightly bounded by a rope and was prisoned in a cage. He dashed towards them and shouted, “Stop right there”. They turned back and two of them recognized him “oh!! you are that brat who stopped us from cutting down the trees”. The leader who just came down to receive the package asked, “what’s going on?”.

They told how they met him and warned “careful Izumo-sama. He has weird eyes”. Teiji spoke, “release my friend”. As Teiji shouted earlier, it alerted some of the guards who then surrounded him and some of the villagers also gathered.

Izumo opened the cage and dragged Zetsu out while speaking “this is my village and here I’m the king. You can’t do anything. This little sh*t stole away the grains and began to throw in the well or the ground or anywhere making them useless.

When the cloth-covered his mouth got taken away, Zetsu shouted: “that’s because you people always threw stones at me and tried to kill me a few years ago”. Izumo looked at Zetsu curiously “oh, you are the same weird creature back then? You even had hands and legs now. A strange creature indeed. But you have to pay for what you have done…”.

He threw Zetsu on the ground and kicked him hard. Zetsu screamed while Teiji was surrounded by the guards. He wasn’t taught any fighting from his birth. So, Teiji didn’t know what to do. Izumo picked up a huge stone beside him “because of you, our village starved for the past 6 months”. He looked at others and shouted, “what should I do with this creature?”. All villagers who were gathered shouted one by one “Kill it. Kill it. Kill it…”.

He looked at Zetsu who was beaten up “now, Die”. Teiji shouted, “no, don’t…” Izumo who was filled with hatred hit the Zetsu which was already beaten down with the huge stone and placed it on him after his body turned into a paste. Teiji who was enraged for the first time in his life awakened Mangekyou sharingan and Rinnegan simultaneously and all the guards who surrounded him were pushed away by an invisible force. Izumo and others shocked and frozen like a statue.

He walked towards Zetsu and pushed the stone away and took Zetsu who was like a meat paste-like how he was originally when he first met, in his arms. Strangely, he was still alive and was shocked for a different reason. He whispered “Rinnegan” unknowingly and many memories began to appear his mind and fainted right away.

Teiji who saw the cruelty of humans for the first time wasn’t able to handle his Rinnegan’s power and the village was destroyed completely along with the villagers. Only then, he found out that Zetsu was still alive but all the villagers were dead or rather killed by him. “What have I done!!!”. He kneeled and went into an extremely depressed state, blue pupils seemed to have appeared in his white eyes.

The scene changed again. Teiji’s eyes were covered with a special cloth that restricts chakra. He stood before Hagoromo and surrounded by nine Tailed beasts which were already bigger than him. He raised his palm and all of them put their paws on his hand one by one and found their chakra which was given to him before was returned to them.

He spoke “forgive me, my siblings, I’m not worthy of being your guardian anymore. I hope in the future you will find a worthy one. Forgive me, father, for everything”. Hagoromo then replied, “you can atone your sins by serving the people in need”. Teiji replied, “and I’m planning to do that”. Hagoromo asked, “what do you mean by that?”.

Teiji smiled and turned back “Uncle, let’s go”. They disappeared from there and appeared on the Moon. Teiji then said “Is this Moon, uncle?. I feel light”. Hamura replied “yes. We are on the moon”.

Hamura then spoke to Shuichi “after donating his eyes to make an Energy vessel on the moon, he disappeared and went back to earth”. Hagoromo then said “Only after my death when I became a spirit and traveled through chakra, I found him by accident.

The scene once again changed. Teiji now seemed like a middle-aged person whose eyes were covered by a white cloth indicating he was blind but anyone with good observation skills can see that he doesn’t possess even eyes anymore.

Despite being blind he can walk around without anyone’s help, and also he seems to have many disciples following him. They began to travel all over the world healing all kinds of diseases, wounds etc…and died at an old age and was buried somewhere later.

Shuichi asked, “I have one last question. Earlier, you told me that you have been watching me from my birth. So, why appear now? why didn’t you appear when I left the village? or at least when I awakened Rinnegan?”.
