A Hyuga Jonin who had awakened the Byakugan walked onto the training ground.
Naruto, who was usually boisterous, became extremely serious during battle, so he didn't say anything inappropriate, but instead looked at his opponent with a serious expression.
Naruto was well aware that the power of the Byakugan was very strong, and there was also the Hyuga clan's unique Gentle Fist.
Gentle Fist is a taijutsu that involves injecting one's Chakra into an enemy's body, thereby damaging the enemy's Chakra pathways, the 'circulatory system,' and internal organs; when combined with the Hyuga clan's bloodline limit, the Byakugan, its power can be perfectly unleashed.
Because internal organs cannot be trained, even the most powerful ninja struck by Gentle Fist often suffer fatal blows.
The opponent did not show any contempt for Naruto's young age; they had seen Naruto and Neji's battle clearly through their Byakugan.
After all, how could the aura of Nine-Tails Chakra erupting within their own clan not be observed?
"Hyuga Takayuki, Jonin, please instruct..."
Naruto, rarely treated with such formality, paused, then also said earnestly, "Naruto, lets have a good match!"
According to the rules, both sides formed the Seal of Confrontation.
Hyuga Takayuki immediately activated his Byakugan; in an instant, his entire eyes turned bluish-white, veins bulged around them, and black marks appeared in his pupils.
Nine-Tails Chakra erupted from Naruto again, with two tails swaying brightly behind him.
Just as he was about to charge, Yang Tao's voice came from the side: "Hey, Naruto, use your full power!!"
Use full power??
Naruto was a bit confused, but he still nodded.
"Okay, I understand!!"
As he spoke, more tails emerged from behind Naruto, and the Tailed Beast Cloak that enveloped Naruto became even thicker.
Hyuga Takayuki's Byakugan widened involuntarily.
Soon, six tails appeared behind Naruto, and the Nine-Tails Chakra leaked further; Naruto's body underwent obvious changes, but he still maintained his human form.
Yang Tao, standing on the viewing platform, stroked his chin and muttered to himself, "Did I go the wrong way? Why are there more and more tails... Shouldn't he be entering Nine-Tails Chakra Mode? Could it be that the Nine-Tails still hasn't acknowledged Naruto?"
However, this matter should still be handled by Naruto; Naruto in his six-tailed state is enough to deal with many things now.
Hyuga Hiashi looked at Naruto, whose skin had turned black and who was exuding an evil aura, and sprang up from the viewing platform with a whoosh.
He, who had always been unperturbed, finally showed emotion on his face, filled with disbelief and surprise.
"Homura, Tetsu, Tokuma, Ibiryo, you all together!"
"Yes, Clan Head."
As his voice fell, four more Jonin leaped into the training ground, and Naruto took the initiative, using his foot to activate the ability of Shave, appearing before Hyuga Takayuki, and unleashing a one-handed Rasengan.
However, Hyuga Takayuki, as a Jonin, was naturally not to be trifled with; he immediately dodged while simultaneously striking a palm towards Naruto.
'Iron Skin!'
Naruto tried to withstand Hyuga Takayuki's attack with his physical body, but what he didn't expect was that Hyuga Takayuki's casual strike couldn't break through the defense of the Tailed Beast Cloak at all.
Naruto: "..."
This was truly casting pearls before swine, which made him feel a bit uncomfortable.
Yang Tao watched the chaotic group with a chuckle, then turned to Hyuga Hiashi and said, "How do you feel about this son-in-law?"
Hyuga Hiashi: "..."
"Naruto is still giving you face; you should know that in his Tailed Beast state, he can completely unleash miniature Tailed Beast Bombs from his mouth. I think Clan Head Hyuga should know what a Tailed Beast Bomb is, right?"
A miniature Tailed Beast Bomb is still a Tailed Beast Bomb.
It couldn't blow Konoha sky-high, but it was more than enough to blow the Hyuga clan training ground sky-high.
Hyuga Hiashi naturally knew what a Tailed Beast Bomb was, after all, he had also experienced the Great Ninja War.
Just then.
A Hyuga clan member used the Body Flicker Technique to appear before Hyuga Hiashi.
"Clan Head, Lord Jiraiya said he sensed the Nine-Tails Chakra and is bringing some Jonin to check the situation."
After only a moment of hesitation, Hyuga Hiashi said, "Take me there."
With Naruto's current strength, as long as he marries Hinata, and with his own maneuvering, gaining the full support of the Hyuga clan is already a foregone conclusion.
Since that was the case, as the clan head and future father-in-law, he naturally had to rally forces for Naruto; those civilian Jonin and Chunin, as well as Jiraiya, one of the Sannin, were all potential targets for recruitment.
Just as Yang Tao said yesterday, even if he didn't interfere with anything, Naruto could still become the Hokage.
Bidding farewell to Yang Tao, Hyuga Hiashi followed the clan member out of the training ground to welcome Jiraiya and his group.
Yang Tao reached out and caught the Hyuga Jonin who had been hit by a Rasengan and sent flying, then placed him on the ground.
Homura clutched his abdomen and said somewhat painfully, "Tha... thank you..."
"You're welcome, continue."
Homura looked at Naruto in the arena, a bitter smile on his face; initially, when he heard that someone wanted to marry the main family's princess and that he was a yellow-haired brat, his heart was filled with disdain.
But now he highly doubted whether this kid's bloodline was even human.
The opponent took five Gentle Fist attacks without changing his expression or missing a beat, his body merely swaying a little, then he forcefully broke through the limit and sent him flying.
With one person missing, the remaining few became even more uncomfortable.
Yang Tao sat in the VIP section watching with great interest, while the Hyuga clan members watching the show also had complex expressions.
In this situation, whether Naruto won or lost, it seemed they wouldn't feel good.
"How is this possible!"
Jiraiya, one of the Sannin, hadn't even arrived, but his astonished voice already reached them.
"The Nine-Tails' power has leaked so much, how on earth did Naruto manage to resist the Nine-Tails' mental erosion?"
According to his estimation, the Nine-Tails Chakra would certainly leak out after so many years, but he never expected Naruto to be able to withstand the erosion of such evil power.
Nine-Tails: I wish, but Naruto is not only Asura's reincarnation, he also awakened the Adamantine Sealing Chains!
Naruto: Is it my fault for having a skill granted by a job transfer bloodline awakening?
Accompanying Jiraiya were several Jonin, including Kakashi and Might Guy, as well as some other civilian Jonin.
People from other major and minor clans were still observing.
However, those guys were nothing to worry about.
As long as the Hyuga were dealt with, those minor clans were just fair-weather friends.
The battle was also nearing its end; Naruto might have learned some social graces, or perhaps because these people weren't true enemies, he didn't go for the kill.
He simply dragged the Hyuga Jonin until they were exhausted.
It wasn't until Hyuga Hiashi called for a halt that these guys retreated, their faces somewhat pale.
Everyone present could see what was going on, but the Hyuga still maintained a shred of dignity.
At least they didn't lose, right?
