Battle Between Gentle Fists

"Hmph, don't make it sound like we have done something bad. We are from the main family. Hinata's father personally ordered us to do this. He did not care about the life of his untalented daughter. In his opinion, her only value was a tool to threaten Ryoha.

Kenta's face was a little ugly, but he did not want people to think that he was betraying the family by colluding with the enemy.

"What?" Neji's expression changed greatly. Before, Hiashi had given him his father's letter. Neji, who had changed his opinion after Hiashi's apology and supplication, now hated him even more than before. How could he betray his own daughter? He even threw away his values to do this. This made Neji rethink his opinions of him.

If he was not a genius of the clan, would he give Hizashi's letter to him? It was obvious that he was trying to buy his heart. Neji was angry, and Hinata was even sadder and angrier. She did not expect that it was her father who ordered this to her. Although his treatment of her had been bad, she still regarded him as her father.

She only thought that she was useless and not valuable in her father's eyes. Therefore, she tried very hard. However, she did not expect that in his mind, she was just a worthless and dispensable chess piece. And now her current value was to be used to threaten the person she liked. Hinata was deeply hurt.

"I did not expect that I was only a chess piece in your heart, Father." Hinata was heartbroken. She immediately thought of Ryoha. He was the person who often risked himself to see her even after leaving the village. She really wanted to throw herself into his arms and cry.

However, she couldn't do that. Her heart was strong. No matter what, she would never let Konoha's people get away with it. She would never let herself be a burden to Ryoha. She hadn't broke the Hiraishin kunai because she didn't want Ryoha to get into a conflict with Konoha again. If he got hurt, it would be painful to her.

"One hell of a father and clan leader..." Neji only felt that he was fooled by Hiashi.

He was sure that if he was mediocre, Hiashi would never hand his father's letter to him, let alone reading it himself. That letter was just a trick into buy his trust. If Hiashi could even treat his daughter like this, what else could he not do?

"Eight Trigrams: 128 Palms!" Neji suddenly rushed towards Shino's opponent, and unleashed his 128 against him. With Shino's insects restraining him, Junpei didn't have the chance to dodge. He could only defend himself.

When Neji was restrained by the cursed seal, his strength was already superior. Now, apart from the seal's status-degrading effect, it might be a blessing in disguise. After the seal was removed, his Byakugan, which had always been restrained, was stronger than those of the Main family, who never had the Seal. He was even more powerful than those who put a cruel fate on him.

Therefore, at this time, Neji was at the Elite Jonin's level. He didn't have anyone to teach him. He was a true genius, a genius who was even more talented than Sasuke. He had grasped the Gentle Fist, Eight Trigrams Palm, and so on. No one had taught him before, and compared to Sasuke and Naruto, who had Orochimaru and Jiraya, he was in a more miserable condition.

However, even if a real genius didn't have a teacher to teach him, he could still rely on himself to learn and explore things to make up for his shortcomings and constantly become stronger.

Sasuke and Naruto had members of the Legendary Sannin teaching them, but they only had the strength of an Elite Jonin (Sasuke) and the peak of Elite Jonin (Naruto).

However, Neji did not have the teachings of the Hyuga clan, nor did he have the jutsus passed down within the clan. He only had some knowledge and skills he learned from Guy, and he taught himself the rest by watching battles and his clansmen in secret.

By doing this, he reached the level of the Elite Jonin by himself. He was really worthy of being the second genius in Konoha, and this was really not an exaggeration.

"Rumble!"

A series of noises rang out. Under the joint attack of Shino and Neji, Junpei was still unable to escape Neji's 128 palms. He was hit over and over again. For ordinary people, being hit by the 64 palms was already miserable, let alone 128.

No matter how long the chakra flow was sealed, once it was sealed, if the target was not strong enough or they had no special technique that could break through the seal, then the winner would basically be decided.

This was the terrifying aspect of the Hyuga clan. Among the three great eyes, Byakugan was indeed the most mediocre, but Byakugan's greatest use was to combine it with the Gentle Fist. The combination of it and the Gentle Fist truly allowed Byakugan to become one of the three great eyes.

"You lost." Neji's Byakugan and Gentle Fist were much stronger after the Cursed Seal was removed from his forehead.

"As expected of the strongest genius of the Hyuga. Unfortunately, you are not born in the Main family." Junpei half knelt on the ground. The destructive power of Neji's 128 palms was not comparable to 64 palms. Not only could it block chakra flow, but it could also attack the enemy through their chakra points. The damage caused was not comparable to that of the 64 palms.

"It doesn't matter to me what family I live in. The important thing is that I am the son of Hyuga Hizashi." Neji put away the Eight Trigrams Palm posture, because he knew that Junpei had no power to resist, so the remaining enemies were the last three members of the Root.

"Quick, send the signal and inform the Danzo-sama! The situation has changed and we need support." The leader of Root members immediately asked one of the ninja next to him to send the signal. Sure enough, a signal light rushed to the sky. Danzo immediately knew that the situation had changed and immediately sent reinforcement to hurry. He knew that the signal would definitely make Jiraya sense something bad.

"Hurry up and get rid of these people." Kiba roared. He knew that more people would come soon.

"Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm!" Neji immediately helped Lee share the burden, but these Root members were not afraid of death in order to complete their mission. They were not going to catch Hinata but to stall her guards.

"Hinata-sama, you should go first." Neji shouted at Hinata while fighting.

"Unless Hinata wants to be a fugitive, we can't leave the village." Shino sighed. He did not want to pour cold water on her, but that was the truth.

"What should we do? What should we do? Oh right, the Hiraishin!" Neji's brain worked quickly, and suddenly a flash of inspiration appeared. He thought of Ryoha's Hiraishin. With Ryoha's love for Hinata, he would definitely leave a way to inform him, and Hinata should also have it.

She really didn't need to refrain from involving Ryoha just to ease his burden. It had to be said that women in love were often absolutely rational, but most of the time, their IQ was infinitely close to zero. With Ryoha's strength, Konoha couldn't do anything to him.
