Chapter 59: Hard Work Pays Off

The transformation ended at noon.

After eating and drinking for a while, Ryosuke took a comfortable bath and then went to the training ground.

Hiashi also took advantage of this short period to rest. These past few days, he hadn't closed his eyes for even a second. He just sat in the study, guarding Ryosuke.

In the afternoon, in the training ground exclusively used by the Hyuga clan, Hyuga Hiashi had been waiting for a long time.

With dark circles under his eyes, he was mentally exhausted, but his tone was full of impatience as he asked, "How is it? Are there any changes in your body?"

Hiashi had witnessed the entire process of Ryosuke's transformation with his Byakugan activated. Honestly, this process was amazing.

There was no training process, but under this change, every organ in Ryosuke's body seemed to have independent consciousness and began to improve itself.

Almost every second, he could feel Ryosuke's physical strength changing. But specifically, Hiashi still wanted to hear Ryosuke's feelings.

"I'll give you an answer through actual actions," Ryosuke said with a chuckle. In the next second, his body disappeared from Hiashi's sight.

Without hesitation, Hiashi activated his Byakugan and spotted Ryosuke's figure dozens of meters away.

"Pure physical speed?" He soon witnessed what Ryosuke called the change. Without utilizing the amplification of chakra, his physical speed alone had now reached the same level as before when chakra was amplified.

The next moment, when the chakra in Ryosuke's body surged, flowed through his body, and began to amplify his body's various functions, his speed increased again. His figure once again disappeared from Hiashi's sight.

Frowning, Hiashi poured more chakra into his Byakugan. When the range of his Byakugan's insight expanded several times and reached the limit of what his eyes could bear, he was able to capture Ryosuke's figure again.

This means that next time he has actual combat training with Ryosuke, he has to exert 100% of his strength and face the battle seriously to ensure that he will not lose during the battle.

Boom—

At this moment, in the dense forest of the training ground, a towering ancient tree fell like a warning sign, breaking from the trunk. Dust flew up, and among the scattered birds and beasts, Ryosuke slowly withdrew his slightly numb shoulder.

In this attack, he also relied on pure physical strength. Each of these ancient trees has a history of more than a hundred years, and their hardiness is far beyond the reach of those seedlings.

But it was so easy. He broke the tree trunk with pure physical strength, without the help of chakra or any power of ninjutsu.

Slowly twisting his shoulders, Ryosuke could feel the massive recoil force caused by the previous collision. In the previous attack, he did not use fists or elbows but rather used stronger skeletal parts of the human body. While testing the strength, he also tested the body's resilience.

He directly relied on his body to hit the tree trunk and did not use any force techniques in the process. In this case, only some traces were left on the surface of his body, while the internal muscles, bones, and meridians were not affected too much, only slightly numb.

"Speed and strength have been improved, as has physical endurance..." Ryosuke stretched his body. Unlike the first transformation, where only his eyes and blood changed, this time, not only his eyes changed, but his body also transformed significantly.

"Next is... the Byakugan." Turning around and looking back, Ryosuke's Byakugan penetrated the woods in front of him and saw Hiashi outside the forest. Their eyes met, and he nodded slightly, mouthing the words, "Please step back."

In the distance, in response to his words, Hiashi was visibly stunned for a moment, then he retreated a hundred meters and entered a state of combat readiness to deal with any sudden situation.

In his vision, Ryosuke closed his eyes after seeing that he was ready.

Boom—

Before Hiashi could figure out what he wanted to do, the roar was deafening. The nearby birds and animals fled in all directions at the roar. With Ryosuke as the center, all the trees and land within a hundred-meter radius seemed to have been crushed by a meteorite falling from the sky, and they had become half a head shorter.

All living things in this area, whether hares, insects, or even birds in the sky, were turned into pools of bloody mud in an instant.

"God... a miracle," Hiashi stared at everything in front of him with wide eyes. It all happened so fast with almost no warning. He didn't even have time to observe the changes in Ryosuke's chakra.

Such power is like the destructive force that only ancient ninjas possessed according to Hyuga history records. In recent years, only the brothers Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama have possessed such god-like power.

Sure enough, if Uchiha and Senju have it, how could they, Hyuga, not have it? Hiashi looked at Ryosuke with eager eyes.

In the forest, Ryosuke opened his eyes and saw devastation everywhere. He raised his hands and looked at his palms.

There was still chakra left in his body, and everything in front of him was the power after compressing his perception range.

But...

"I can now use my coercion or intimidation more smoothly. Could it be that...  I am really taking the same path as Kaguya Ōtsutsuki?" Ryosuke frowned, feeling somewhat confused. He had expected that his eyes would change after the transformation. But the improvement in the proficiency of the skills he had already mastered was unexpected.

Nowadays, whether it is genjutsu or coercion, it is smoother than before, as if it has been run-in for a long time.

"No, that's not right. These changes have nothing to do with Kaguya Ōtsutsuki..." But soon, Ryosuke rejected this idea. How could it be such a coincidence? As soon as he thought about it, he ended up following the old path of Kaguya Ōtsutsuki and used two different techniques: genjutsu and coercion.

In this case, the progress bar in his mind may not be targeting his own bloodline but the abilities he possesses.

Perhaps, just as he thought initially, this progress bar is more like a limiter. After reaching the limit, it helps him remove restrictions to a certain extent.

Or it could be an improvement in bloodline, or perhaps a technique mastered, or physical strength. But the actual ability needs to be mastered by himself.

For example, he spent time and energy developing genjutsu and coercion, so after the transformation, his use of these two techniques improved. Even the strength of his body has been enhanced.

On the other hand, when he transformed for the first time, he had not undergone high-intensity training but only paid special attention to the aspect of eye techniques. So when he transformed, he gained the improvement of his bloodline and the Byakugan that was closer to the Otsutsuki's.
