In addition to the omnipotent Shibai space, Neji awakened another ability called "Synthesis."

However, this seemed more like an auxiliary power of the Shibai space.

Like the omnipotent Shibai space, Synthesis also consumed Byakugan essence.

However, compared to the Shibai space, synthesis requires far fewer resources.

Similar to how lower-tier equipment in online games could be combined to form higher-tier equipment, the Synthesis ability provided Neji with a platform to merge two items into one.

"If the rules governing everything in the world are visible to us, then our primary task shouldn't be to describe the present."

"It should be to summarize the future…"

Neji recalled something his father, Hiashi, once said.

Insight.

Analysis.

Replication.

Synthesis.

And the Shibai space.

These were Neji's Byakugan abilities.

Apart from the Shibai space, which seemed mystical, the first four abilities formed a coherent logical chain.

Insight was a natural ability of the Byakugan, enabling the identification of weaknesses in specific parts.

When these "specific weaknesses" were combined, they allowed for the comprehensive "Analysis" of an object.

Once an object was thoroughly analyzed and understood its structure perfectly, one could naturally reconstruct its elements, leading to the ability to "Replicate."

The fourth ability, "Synthesis," came into play.

If "Insight," "Analysis," and "Replication" describe the present, then "Synthesis" clearly summarizes the future.

"If it can be analyzed, it can be replicated."

"And if it can be replicated, it can naturally be combined…"

Neji lost interest in the ability after creating and merging two standard long swords into one black long sword. While the black sword was noticeably stronger and harder, the cost of Byakugan essence deterred Neji from further exploration.

Neji wasn't even willing to use the essence to find a way to remove the Caged Bird Seal, so he certainly wasn't going to waste it on this.

Compared to the omnipotent Shibai space, the single-function Synthesis ability was clearly outclassed.

"I'll research this ability more when I have extra Byakugan essence."

Neji thought, finding it hard to believe that the Synthesis ability was so limited.

In the dark basement, candle flames flickered.

Back in the real world, Neji looked gravely at the ninjutsu scroll in his hand.

His self-created jutsu, seen by the Shibai space as full of flaws, had been "perfected" to expand tenfold in content. What was once a single jutsu was now divided into five major parts:

Byakugan: Planting Phase.

Byakugan: Growing Phase.

Byakugan: Blossoming Phase.

Byakugan: Fruiting Phase.

Byakugan: Harvesting Phase.

From the names alone, it sounded like a gardening manual for cultivators.

The 24-meter-long scroll contained five major sections, each with 1-2 core jutsus and several supplementary techniques.

These core jutsus were mostly of C-B rank in difficulty, with simple yet highly targeted designs. They were used only to ensure the "Byakugan" could grow and thrive, addressing any problems that might arise during its development.

The content was incredibly detailed and highly feasible. Although it followed Neji's original design concept, the Shibai space accounted for and corrected every possible flaw.

It could perfect things to this extent!

The whole concept of "Byakugan cultivation" was simple enough.

The Hyuga clan's Byakugan could increase in potency through training, but the process was agonizingly slow.

Using this method, it would take Neji at least twenty years to advance his second-stage Byakugan to the third stage, and reaching the final stage would take his entire lifetime.

Neji couldn't accept being a servant of the main family his whole life, so he took a shortcut: slaughtering the entire Hyuga clan and using their Byakugan for himself.

This was for freedom and power.

In the end, Neji was lucky. He succeeded, and hundreds of Hyuga clan members fell to his blade, allowing his Byakugan to reach its final stage and unlock the omnipotent Shibai space. But even so, this didn't mean that the slow, traditional method was wrong.

While most people didn't have the Byakugan, they could nurture it using a bit of essence that Neji provided, much like oysters turn grains of sand into pearls.

Neji's training might be slow, but with hundreds, thousands, or even millions of people—perhaps the entire shinobi world—working together to enhance their Byakugan essence, the quantity could compensate for the quality.

This was the design principle behind Neji's "Byakugan Cultivation Plan."

With the perfect, flawless "Byakugan Cultivation Manual" provided by the Shibai space, Neji was confident in the immense value that human cooperation could generate.

Even if people didn't want to unite under Neji, it didn't matter.

He wanted it, and that was enough.

The omnipotent power was addictive.

Neji vaguely remembered the name Shibai.

The Otsutsuki is closest to a god named Otsutsuki Shibai.

Neji's omnipotent Shibai space was undoubtedly connected to this figure.

Neji wasn't sure what this meant, but he was prepared. With caution and vigilance, he would use this "omnipotent" power wisely. After all, what else could he do?

The Otsutsuki god had already transcended the universe, and crushing Neji would be no harder than crushing an ant. Since Neji was still alive and well, it meant the god didn't care about his actions.

That was enough.

Neji might never meet Otsutsuki Shibai, but given his current trajectory, he would definitely encounter the Otsutsuki clan. When that happened, capturing a member of the clan would unlock the secrets of his Byakugan.

Neji wasn't in a hurry.

"Let's start with the Land of Waves," he whispered as he left the basement.

Begin planting Byakugan in the 50,000 residents of the Land of Waves.
