A Crushing Defeat

Makoto winced in pain, but he still pushed the people around him away, stood up with difficulty, and moved his still uncontrollable hand.

"I underestimated you, but you only have brute strength. All of that is useless in front of Byakugan and Gentle Fist!" He said harshly.

Shintaro ignored his words but focused on the difference between Hyuga Makoto and the other Hyuga Clan members around him.

Among those people, only Hyuga Makoto openly displayed his forehead, while the others covered theirs with fabric headbands, scarves, and other accessories.

If it were just this, Shintaro wouldn't find anything unusual.

However, the Six Eyes could see something deeper beneath the surface. Behind the covers were certain restrictions imposed on the brains of the Hyuga clan, limiting their vision and abilities.

This might be the reason why these people only followed the orders of the Main Family. These restrictions must be a symbol of status and an embodiment of subservience.

However, Shintaro didn't know the specific details. He planned to go back and ask the Clan Leader. As a high-ranking official in Konoha and the leader of the Uchiha Clan, Fugaku should know this well.

Makoto recovered his arm as Shintaro studied the mystery of the foreheads of some people. Although it still felt a bit numb and sore when he waved it, it did not affect his basic activities.

Makoto formed a seal with his hands: "Byakugan!"

Veins appeared around his eyes, and his eyes suddenly became sharper.

Shintaro noticed a large amount of chakra from Makoto's body flowing into his eyes, causing an overload around his eyes, resulting in this phenomenon.

Compared to the Uchiha Clan's Sharingan, the Hyuga Clan's Byakugan had a much lower usage threshold. Even some Ninja School students who hadn't graduated could open it.

Makoto even assumed the Gentle Fist stance. This made Tetsuo and the others, who had been harshly taught with this method, start to feel scared, and they hid behind Shintaro.

Makoto sneered, "Hiding is useless. In front of Byakugan, you have nowhere to hide!"

He lowered his body, put one hand in front and the other behind, and assumed the Gentle Fist stance.

"Juken."

Makoto's aura suddenly changed, making Shintaro feel wary.

The two were at a stalemate for a moment, and soon Makoto couldn't resist taking action first. He stepped forward methodically and attacked quickly with two palm strikes.

Makoto continued to pursue, "Four strikes! Eight strikes! Sixteen strikes! Thirty-two strikes!"

After completing thirty-two strikes, he was panting and physically exhausted.

However, Shintaro looked relaxed and comfortable, as if he had just taken a leisurely walk.

But in his heart, he still admired the Hyuga Clan's Gentle Fist. He believed that a great clan passed down for many years indeed had its own foundation.

Shintaro imitated Makoto and concentrated chakra at his fingertips. Then he immediately took action and directed his finger at the acupuncture point on Makoto's chest to force him back.

Makoto was shocked and thought: 'Why does this move look like Gentle Fist?'

He didn't know that this was a move Shintaro imitated after understanding the principles of Gentle Fist with the Six Eyes.

At this moment, Makoto had lost his previous confidence and hurriedly called for the people around him to rush forward.

However, Shintaro walked among them.

Makoto's Gentle Fist couldn't even touch the corner of his clothes, let alone the fragmented Gentle Fist mastered by this group of trash.

Shintaro's flexibility was also due to the strong insight of the Six Eyes and the strong physical fitness brought by Cursed Energy. These two cheats from his past life made his strength far surpass his peers.

And Shintaro didn't just dodge without fighting back. While dodging, he extended his fingers to poke the acupuncture points of several people. The smarter thing was that he also used the weaknesses of their encirclement to make them hit each other with their Gentle Fist.

Makoto finally regained his composure and rushed into the crowd, but Shintaro quickly struck his acupuncture point.

Makoto's whole body immediately went numb. Shintaro pulled him and turned around, just in time to use him to block one of the Hyuga Clan members.

Makoto cursed angrily, "Don't you have eyes?"

The other party was terrified and humbly apologized immediately.

Shintaro gave no face, grabbed Makoto's arm, and threw him, aiming at the round-faced Hyuga Clan member.

With a bang, accompanied by the screams of both people, they were thrown together and couldn't get up again.

Shintaro's eyes turned to the others, making them tremble and afraid to step forward.

So he took the initiative and defeated everyone with three punches and two kicks.

This scene made Tetsuo and the others, who were watching the battle from the sidelines, tighten their sphincters, as they had ended up like this last time.

Among those watching the battle, Tetsuo reacted the fastest and shouted, "Boss Shintaro is mighty!"

Hamasu and the others shouted, "Boss is mighty! Boss is mighty!"

Shintaro gestured for them to calm down, and the volume gradually decreased.

He lowered his head and asked, "Still want this place?"

The defeated didn't dare to answer. They all waited for Makoto to speak.

Makoto said painfully, "Not anymore…"

Satisfied, Shintaro walked away, and the people piled in the human tower rose one by one.

Makoto covered his swollen cheek and glared at Shintaro.

Shintaro noticed Makoto's gaze and turned to look.

Makoto was so frightened that he immediately looked away and fled with a few people in despair.

During the fight, one of their hairbands had come loose, allowing Shintaro to see the green X-shaped mark on their foreheads. This mark caused the limited brain vision observed by the Six Eyes.

'The Hyuga Clan is really incompetent with seals. Do they use this method to ensure the survival of the main family?'

With these keywords, Shintaro could roughly infer the hierarchy of the Hyuga Clan.

He didn't think much of it. This hierarchy only stifled the potential of the family.

Compared to the hierarchy and customs of the Hyuga Clan, Shintaro was relatively satisfied with the customs of the Uchiha Clan.

The Uchiha Clan always respected strength. No matter whose child, they would be recognized as long as they were strong enough.

This was one of the reasons why Shintaro quickly gained recognition from the Uchiha Clan.
