Ch. 82. Hyuga Neji's realization. [1].

　　Rock Lee, who stayed where he was, had not yet reacted:

- "What do you mean, I forgot everything, why do you say it's good?"

It seems that I have realized something, but it seems that I have not realized anything.

　　The more Rock Lee thought about it, the bigger his brain got, but he didn't want to understand and felt unwilling to do so.

　　After all, Mizuki said that if you practice [Tai Chi] to a high level, you can withstand all attacks.

　　Rock Lee:

- "Forget it, keep exercising."

- "Mizuki-Sensei asked me to go back and understand it carefully. Once I understand it, I will learn it. Then I will understand it slowly."

　　The next day, team 3, lead by Might Guy, came to the Eighth Training Ground to practice.

　　Tenten practiced ninja tools every day, Neji practiced soft fists, Guy and Rock Lee practiced taijutsu.

　　[Konoha Taijutsu] is divided into two major schools, the [Hard-Fist Style] and the [Soft-Fist Style].

　　The [Soft-Fist Style] is exclusive to the Hyuga family and needs to be used in conjunction with the [Byakugan].

　　The [Hard-Fist Style] also has different inheritances, such as Might Guy's the [Eight Inner Gates], Tsunade's [Chakra Enhanced Strength], etc.

　　At this time, Guy and Rock Lee opened the [Eight Inner Gates] and practiced [Hard-Fist Style].

　　Everyone is serious.

　　When we are tired from practicing, everyone sits together to rest, and takes out snacks and drinks from the storage scroll every day.

　　Guy suddenly said:

- "Lee, you are practicing today, why do you look so absent-minded?"

　　Rock Lee said:

"I'm sorry, Guy-Sensei, I came into contact with a new taijutsu technique yesterday, but I haven't learned it yet. I've been thinking about it."

　　Guy became interested and asked:

- "What kind of taijutsu technique is it?"

　　Rock Lee replied:

- "Mizuki-Sensei taught me [Tai Chi]."

　　Hearing the word "Tai Chi", Neji suddenly looked up.

　　Guy was stunned for a moment and asked:

- "Mizuki? Does he know taijutsu technique's?"

　　Yesterday in the Hokage Building conference room, Guy had already gotten to know Mizuki again.

　　[Substitution Technique: Displacement], [Rasengan], and the courage to face Sandaime of accusations without fear.

　　Guy's face turned serious and he said:

- "Tell me about Tai Chi!"

　　Rock Lee scratched his head and said:

- "I don't know what to say. I haven't learned [Tai Chi] at all. Mizuki-Sensei demonstrated it yesterday, but I have forgotten it all."

　　Tenten asked curiously:

- "Is it very complicated?"

　　Rock Lee:

- "It's not complicated, it's just...how should I put it, very strange."

　　Guy said:

- "Describe it."

　　Guy said:

- "Yesterday I was exercising outside the village. Mizuki-Sensei found me and asked me to call him Sensei. He also said he would teach me a profound taijutsu technique."

He was not good at lying, and his face turned red when he said this.

　　But it would be even more embarrassing if the reason for pursuing Sakura's apprenticeship was revealed.

　　Guy said speechlessly:

- "It's just a apprenticeship. Why are you blushing? I didn't say you can't accept other people as your Sensei."

It was obvious that Guy had misunderstood.

　　Rock Lee:

- "After I became a disciple, Mizuki-Sensei told me that taijutsu technique he was going to teach me was called [Tai Chi]."

　　Rock Lee repeated Mizuki's original words:

- "...Contains the most fundamental principles of heaven and earth, such as yin and yang, movement and stillness, positive and negative, form and spirit..."

- "Use softness to overcome hardness, stillness to overcome movement, a small force to overcome a large force, slowness to overcome swiftness..."

- "...Four ounces and a thousand jing can withstand all attacks..."

　　After Rock Lee finished speaking, Guy's expression became more serious.

　　Tenten curled his lips and said:

- "Lee, have you been deceived? Mizuki is just a chunin, how can he master this kind of taijutsu?"

- "He must have deceived you."

　　Guy was noncommittal and asked:

- "Is there any more?"

　　Rock Lee:

- "Mizuki-Sensei demonstrated it once. After the demonstration, he asked me how much I remembered."

- "The first time I said I remembered 80%, Sensei didn't say anything."

- "After a while he asked me how much I remembered, and I said 30%, but Sensei still didn't say anything."

- "The third time I asked, I said I had forgotten all about it. But Mizuki-Sensei smiled, patted me on the shoulder, and said it was good!"

- "I still don't understand what it means!"

　　Tenten becomes more convinced that Rock Lee has been deceived.

　　Guy didn't speak, but frowned and thought.

　　The one who had the biggest reaction was definitely Neji.

　　His eyes were dull and he was mumbling something:

- "...Use softness to overcome hardness, stillness to overcome movement, a small force to overcome a large force, slowness to overcome swiftness..."

- "...yin and yang, positive and negative..."

These words were repeated over and over again in his mouth, and the more he said them, the brighter his eyes became.

　　Suddenly, he jumped up and shouted:

- "I understand!"

　　Rock Lee and Tenten looked at Neji with confused expressions:

- "What do you understand?"

　　Neji came to the open space aside, and a large amount of chakra was released from the acupuncture points on his body, and his body began to spin at high speed like a top.

　　A blue hemispherical chakra shield surrounded him.

　　This is [Eight Trigrams: Palm Rotation], which can withstand all physical damage and is known as absolute defense.

　　Ten-Ten asked curiously:

- "What's wrong with Neji?"

　　Guy didn't understand either, and just said:

- "Neji seems to have understood something and is experimenting."

　　In the field, Neji's rotation speed began to decrease, and the chakra emitted from his body also began to decrease.

　　Until finally, Neji stopped spinning completely.

　　The chakra shield turned into a thin layer, like a bubble, which seemed to be able to burst with a poke.

　　Neji:

- "Tenten, use your ninja tool to attack me!"

　　Tenten said:

- "Are you sure, Neji, I feel you will be hurt."

　　Neji said:

- "Don't worry, just attack. The more ninja tools the better."

　　Tenten:

- "Okay!"

She had no choice but to take out the scroll, summon a large number of shurikens, and attack Neji.

　　Of course, she restrained her strength. These shurikens were not fast and powerful. Even if they hit the body, they would only cause superficial injuries.
