The Kaguya clan is one of the major families in the Hidden Mist Village, their standing comparable to that of the Uchiha clan in the Hidden Leaf Village.

Though no one from the clan has ever held the title of Mizukage, their status has remained high throughout history.

Since the founding of the Hidden Mist Village, they have been the foremost clan in the village.

This is due entirely to their overwhelming power.

More specifically, their unique kekkei genkai: Shikotsumyaku, the Corpse Bone Pulse.

The Kaguya clan can manipulate their own bones as deadly weapons, both offensively and defensively. They have complete control over the bones in their bodies—from osteoblast activity to calcium levels—allowing them to generate, dissolve, and harden bones at will.

In battle, these bones become piercing spears or impenetrable shields.

Their offense and defense are both exceptional, making them formidable opponents on any battlefield.

For over a century, the Kaguya clan maintained their elite status within the Hidden Mist Village due to their fearsome bloodline limit.

However, not long after the Third Great Ninja War, everything began to change.

"Damn it! We can't go on like this!"

"The people of Kirigakure need to see how powerful we really are!"

Inside the home of the Kaguya clan head, several key elders of the clan were gathered, heatedly discussing recent events.

"These past few years, the Fourth Mizukage has gone mad, targeting all clans with bloodline limits throughout the Land of Water."

"The only reason he hasn't dared move against us is because the Kaguya clan is still too strong for him to crush easily."

"But at this rate, it's only a matter of time. Other bloodline clans are being eliminated one by one. We're next on the list!"

"We can't sit here waiting to die. If we must perish, let's go down fighting!"

A middle-aged shinobi in his thirties slammed his fist into the floor in frustration.

"That's right, clan head! When has the Kaguya clan ever backed down? If we die, we die with honor!"

"To hell with them—those bastards from the Hidden Mist Village!"

"We'll make them remember the power of the Kaguya! We're not a clan you can mess with!"

...

The nearby Kaguya shinobi all voiced their rage.

The Kaguya are a warrior clan.

Their thoughts are straightforward, without much scheming or diplomacy.

If people treat them with respect, they respond in kind.

But if you cross them, they will not forgive you.

They don't bluff or hesitate. Once they decide to act, they commit fully.

For years, the Kaguya have swallowed their pride under the oppressive rule of the Fourth Mizukage.

And the only reason they've tolerated it this long is because of their clan head.

Though the Kaguya are known for their aggression and bloodlust, they also respect strength.

The current clan head is the most powerful member of the Kaguya today.

He holds absolute authority.

A man in his forties, with hair as white as snow, dark green eyes with a mysterious glow, and two red markings between his brows.

Unlike the typical hot-tempered Kaguya, he exudes calm and intelligence.

He stood still, fingers tapping rhythmically against the table, deep in thought.

The situation was clear: once the Fourth Mizukage finished eliminating the other bloodline clans, their own Kaguya clan would be next.

There was no avoiding it.

But should they launch a rebellion now? What were the odds of success?

Even with their strength, the Kaguya couldn't match the full might of the Hidden Mist Village.

What was the right move?

Just then, a soft chuckle echoed through the room.

"Heh... Is this all the Kaguya clan amounts to? Weak and vulnerable?"

The voice was faint, distant, and surreal—yet at the same time, it sounded as if it were whispered directly into their ears.

"Who's there!?"

The gathered Kaguya shinobi sprang up, scanning the room with sharp eyes, searching for the source of the voice.

The topic of their meeting was extremely sensitive. If any of it leaked, the consequences would be catastrophic for the entire clan.

They couldn't afford even the smallest breach.

And yet, they were too late.

A man stepped out from the shadows at the far end of the table, as though he had been there all along.

His expression was cold. His robe was black as night. And his eyes—blood-red, spinning.

The Hidden Mist Village had long since ceased to regard the Kaguya clan as their own.

Because of this, even the head of the Kaguya clan remained completely unaware of matters that Mei Terumi had knowledge of.

But ignorance didn't cloud judgment.

The moment Uchiha Haru appeared, the Kaguya clan leader immediately ordered, "Capture him!"

Their secret had been overheard. Whoever this man was, he couldn't be allowed to leave.

In an instant, every member of the Kaguya clan present—excluding Uchiha Haru—launched themselves at him. Those seated at this table were not ordinary clan members. They were elites, the best of the Kaguya clan.

In other clans, high status didn't always mean great strength. For instance, the Uchiha clan's elder might hold a lofty title but wasn't necessarily strong enough to command true respect. Many younger Uchiha could defeat him easily.

But the Kaguya clan was different.

They were warriors. Their strength was their rank.

Among them, the clan head held absolute authority—and was also the strongest.

The rest of the elites all held key positions within the clan, earned through martial prowess.

So those qualified to discuss rebellion with the clan leader were not just strategists—they were battle-hardened veterans.

The moment they moved, their power was undeniable.

Fast, aggressive, and unrelenting—their fighting style was as brutal as it was effective.

The Shikotsumyaku, their kekkei genkai, transformed their own bones into weapons—jagged spears of calcium and hardened armor of marrow. In taijutsu, they thrived. Flesh met fist, bone met blade. That was the Kaguya way.

"Wood Release: Deep Forest Emergence."

Facing their sudden assault, Uchiha Haru calmly performed a set of rapid hand seals. The speed of his movements blurred, almost dazzling in complexity.

Even as the Kaguya warriors leaped midair to strike, he completed the final seal.

The wooden floor beneath their feet erupted. Twisting vines shot upward like serpents, coiling around their limbs with predatory precision.

Before they could land a single blow, they were tangled and hoisted aloft, immobilized and hanging.

"Hmph..."

The Kaguya clan leader narrowed his eyes, a flicker of surprise showing on his otherwise impassive face.

That ninjutsu… that kekkei genkai...

Wood Release!

A power spoken of in legend. A bloodline that had long vanished with the First Hokage.

The suspended warriors struggled, muscles bulging as they fought the vines. But these were no ordinary plants. They were supple, yet iron-strong—natural chakra constructs capable of strangling even the likes of Shimura Danzo.

"RAAAHH!"

Snarling in fury, the warriors activated their Shikotsumyaku. Their skin cracked, and pale bone spurs tore through flesh and muscle, jutting outward like brutal thorns.

The sharpened bones shredded cloth, flesh, and the wooden tendrils that bound them.

Creaking sounds echoed. The vines, though durable, began to split.

"Oh?" Haru tilted his head, an amused smirk playing across his lips.

"Shikotsumyaku... fascinating."

Snap!

The first vine gave way, then the next. One by one, the Kaguya elites tore themselves free.

Landing heavily on the ground, their eyes blazed with fury. They prepared to charge again—

Until the clan leader barked, "Stand down!"

"Why—"

The warriors turned toward him in protest.

It wasn't just that Haru had overheard their plans.

He had bound them—humiliated them—before they'd even touched the ground. For warriors like the Kaguya, this was more than defeat. It was disgrace.

They burned with the need to avenge it.

But the clan leader's voice cut through their bloodlust.

"I said back off! Don't ask why. If he meant to kill you, would he have given you time to break free?"

"You are no match for him."

"But—"

They wanted to protest further, but an order from the clan head was absolute.

Even in their frustration, they could not disobey. With clenched fists and stormy glares, they stepped back, positioning themselves behind the clan head.

They did not sheath their bone blades. Their eyes still locked onto Haru with pure hostility.

The Kaguya clan leader took a few slow steps forward.

His expression was composed, but his voice carried the weight of authority.

"You came all the way to the Kaguya clan... just to eavesdrop?"

"Who are you? And why are you here?"

Uchiha Haru stood unflinching, robes rippling slightly with his movement. His Sharingan eyes—deep crimson and swirling with tomoe—bore into the man before him.

"Uchiha Haru," he said simply.
