Hyuga Neji.
The son of Hyuga Hizashi from the Hyuga branch house.
Although he was from the branch house, he had shown extraordinary talent from the moment he first encountered the Gentle Fist.
High hopes were placed on him by all members of the Hyuga Clan, including the clan leader, Hyuga Hiashi.
Find Taiwan novels on Taiwan Novel Network, all the excitement is there.
But one day, a small figure broke into his life.
“Brother Neji, please give me some guidance.”
He remembered that was when Hinata had just started learning the Gentle Fist.
Until now…
Figures moving back and forth in the Training Ground were reflected in his pure white pupils.
The moves were fierce, the actions swift.
Not just Hinata, but even this Toneri, whom he was meeting for the first time, was the same.
Every strike was clean and decisive, and every attack carried a sharp intent.
Neji had thought his cousin Hinata was already the best among her peers.
He hadn’t expected to meet another peer today who was not inferior to Hinata.
Yes, not inferior to Hinata.
Hinata was currently exchanging blows with Toneri; every frontal collision was accompanied by a clash of Chakra, so much so that a peculiar sonic boom of Chakra rang out every time they fought.
Theoretically, Toneri and Hinata belonged to the same clan; although one group was on the moon and the other on Earth, and the techniques they used were different, the pattern of seeing through meridians based on the principles of the Byakugan and releasing Chakra through pressure points was exactly the same.
So, while it appeared they were in a Taijutsu battle, it was actually a contest of Chakra.
If a pressure point was sealed by the opponent, one could only use Chakra to force a breakthrough.
At the same time, one had to seal the opponent’s pressure points.
Having been in this world for six years, only Hinata herself knew that in her exchanges with Neji and other peers, she was essentially an adult bullying children.
After all, Hinata was entirely a born-knower; this was the fundamental reason why she could suppress Neji and all her peers in the Hyuga Clan.
It was difficult for children to understand techniques and the pressure points and meridians described by their elders; after all, many of them hadn’t even fully learned to read.
Because Hinata was a born-knower, based on her own talent, she could understand the various theories explained by her elders at the fastest speed.
But this kind of understanding only had a certain effect against ordinary people.
The Toneri opposite her was one of the top geniuses in the Ninja World.
Being a so-called born-knower might offer a slight advantage against such a person, but it was absolutely impossible to create a massive gap.
Therefore, Hinata not only wanted to dispel the inexplicable feelings he had for her but also wanted to see if there was a gap between herself and a true genius.
Hinata had no so-called cheat or any of those inexplicable systems.
She only had her own brain and talent.
If she wanted to replace her dear son Uzumaki Boruto’s position in the future, relying solely on talent was clearly not enough.
And the ultimate enemy was very likely to be that Ōtsutsuki God who transcended dimensions.
The one known as the omniscient and omnipotent Ōtsutsuki Shibai.
Bang!
The wind from the palm strike was biting, blowing the hair on Toneri’s forehead.
A flash of amazement crossed his Byakugan, which he had inherited from his father’s eyes.
A palm stopped in front of him.
This was Hinata’s palm; if it had moved half an inch further, it would have struck him squarely in the forehead.
He was ‘dead.’
Toneri had fought with Hinata for nearly five minutes before finally being defeated.
“Hinata is very impressive.”
Toneri had a reserved smile on his face, his white pupils looking at Hinata with amusement.
“You’re not good at Taijutsu?”
Hinata didn’t feel happy about winning against Toneri; instead, she frowned and looked at him with a puzzled expression.
“Yes.”
Toneri spoke with some embarrassment.
Because he was born without eyes, his Taijutsu had previously been taught bit by bit by Otsutsuki Kanme.
Before this, Toneri had always practiced the control and flow of Chakra.
Not good at…
Taijutsu.
Watching from the side, Neji remained silent.
Toneri, who was not good at Taijutsu, had fought Hinata for five minutes before losing.
Whereas he…
Neji once again experienced that sense of powerlessness when facing Hinata head-on.
A genius?
Nothing but a joke.
Though Neji appeared calm at the moment, ripples were already stirring in his heart.
If someone like Toneri was called not good at Taijutsu, then what did that make him?
“Boring.”
Hinata waved her hand, looking somewhat disappointed.
She had been wrong from the start.
She had thought that while a strong person might not be good at Ninjutsu or Genjutsu, it was impossible for them not to be good at Taijutsu.
She hadn’t expected to encounter an anomaly like Toneri, who was born without eyes.
Thinking carefully, in the final movie, Toneri relied entirely on the Tenseigan Chakra Mode to fight the young Naruto; it could be said he relied completely on the Giant Tenseigan and massive Chakra to go head-to-head with Naruto.
Moreover, Toneri had only just obtained his eyes recently.
He was still in the adaptation period.
She had been too impatient.
“Keep practicing. I need an opponent.”
“Bullying you is no fun.”
Hinata tugged at her collar and walked out of the Training Ground on her own.
“Does Hinata need an opponent?”
Hearing this, Toneri looked toward Hinata.
“Yeah.”
“Don’t make me wait too long.”
Hinata waved her hand and disappeared alone around the corner of the Training Ground.
Leaving Toneri there by himself, looking thoughtful.
Hinata didn’t have much intention of putting effort into Ninjutsu.
A person’s energy is limited.
Twenty years isn’t long, but it isn’t short either.
Facing the Ōtsutsuki Clan in the future, almost every one of them has the ability to absorb Ninjutsu.
Learning two or three Ninjutsu is enough.
Hinata wasn’t interested in Sealing Jutsu either.
The strongest known Sealing Jutsu is the Six Paths — Chibaku Tensei used to seal Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, which is also a sealing technique of the Ōtsutsuki Clan.
Using Ōtsutsuki techniques to deal with the Ōtsutsuki?
It might be somewhat useful, but not much.
After all, there’s no guarantee that Ōtsutsuki Momoshiki’s Takamimusubi couldn’t absorb it, and then throw an even larger one back at her.
In Hinata’s view, the true future battle with the Ōtsutsuki will be a battle of Taijutsu, the purest form of confrontation.
Just like Naruto in Baryon Mode after the Nine-Tailed’s sacrifice, fighting against Ōtsutsuki Isshiki.
The future safety of the Ninja World depends on the smallest margin of combat.
So even though Hinata knew that Ninjutsu paired with the Byakugan could achieve beyond-visual-range strikes, she had no such thoughts.
Ninjutsu, in the end, are techniques of the Ninja, used to deal with other Ninjas.
They are not techniques for dealing with the Ōtsutsuki.
The results of using Ninjutsu against the Ōtsutsuki in the future have already explained everything.
The only Ninjutsu Hinata truly valued were Space-Time Ninjutsu Formula like the Flying Thunder God Technique and auxiliary techniques that could stimulate the body’s potential.
If the Eight Gates and the Byakugan system weren’t completely diametrical, Hinata would have planned to go and apprentice under Might Guy to become a Hyuga girl praising youth and passion.
Although the Hyuga’s Byakugan system isn’t heaven-defyingly strong, it has the Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm for long-range, Rotation for defense, and the Gentle Fist for close combat, and none of them require hand seals.
Overall, it’s quite comprehensive and balanced, and Hinata doesn’t necessarily have to use the Gentle Fist.
