Chapter 51: The Growing Girl

There are quite a few people in the Hyuga clan, but not everyone has the ability to open the Byakugan.

Whether one can awaken the bloodline and open the Byakugan depends on the intensity of one's practice and the purity of one's Hyuga blood.

The use of the Gentle Fist does not necessarily require the use of Byakugan.

The Byakugan plays an auxiliary role in the use of the Gentle Fist. In fact, the strength of the Gentle Fist mainly depends on the familiarity with acupoints and meridians, the control of chakra, and the force techniques.

The interior of the human body is extremely complex, and the number of meridians and acupoints crisscrossing within it is innumerable.

Without the Byakugan, it is possible to intercept chakra and press acupoints with just the naked eye and familiarity with the human body, but this is difficult to do without a certain amount of talent and hard work.

And even if they could do it, most Hyuga people could only use incomplete Gentle Fist techniques and could not exert their full strength.

The existence of the Byakugan is the shortcut for the Hyuga clan to master the Gentle Fist.

Originally, under Ryosuke's one-on-one guidance, Hinata was already very familiar with the meridians and acupoints of the human body and could use the incomplete Gentle Fist without relying on the Byakugan.

And now... she has awakened her bloodline.

Ryosuke was relieved to learn that Hinata had opened her Byakugan during the time he was away, but he still had no intention of letting her go.

With his hands behind his back all the time, he deftly dodged Hinata's attacks and occasionally gave some advice.

"After opening your Byakugan, your insight has improved, and your speed and strength have also increased, but your desire to fight is not strong enough, and you have not yet formed your own combat consciousness."

"Unfortunately, although your eyes can see my movements and transmit them to your brain, it is still too slow for your brain to respond in a short period of time and give feedback to your hands and feet to attack. This way, you will always be one step behind me."

"Byakugan and Gentle Fist are just means of attack; they are tools. You are the one who uses the tools. Thinking about how to use these powers well is the most important thing."

After Hinata opened her Byakugan, it meant that she would be able to see Ryosuke's body acupoints and meridians more clearly.

If he was touched, it was very likely that his chakra would be cut off, followed by a barrage of unfinished Eight Trigrams Thirty-Two Palms.

Although the Thirty-Two Palms is only a semi-finished product of the Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms, as long as it is used properly, it can also make him lose the enhancement of the chakra to his body in a short period of time.

But unfortunately, Hinata couldn't hit the target with this palm no matter what she did. It was exactly the same as before when she didn't open her Byakugan. She couldn't even touch the corner of Ryosuke's clothes.

"Come on! Come on, sister!"

In the distance, Hanabi under the lights was still cheering for Hinata happily.

Being too young to understand the advantages and disadvantages of this battle, she didn't understand what her sister Hinata was facing.

"Your chakra is almost exhausted."

Ryosuke reminded her softly, "With your chakra level, it's already very difficult to use high-level ninjutsu like the Shadow Clone. After opening your Byakugan, your chakra consumption will be even greater. Let's stop here for today's training."

He did not open his Byakugan, but from Hinata's increasingly slow movements and heavy breathing, he could tell that her current condition was extremely difficult.

However, Hinata ignored his words and continued to swing her palm with gritted teeth.

But unfortunately, such efforts were in vain.

As the chakra quickly dissipated, her speed, strength, and other parameters began to decline, and her Byakugan became very unstable and could quit at any time.

Slow steps, slow swings.

Since her chakra was not enough to maintain her Byakugan and enhance her physical fitness, she could only rely on her physical strength to persevere.

As a member of a physical arts family, Hinata has very good physical fitness. She persisted for a long time, but it was difficult for Ryosuke to be distracted during the battle to judge the approximate speed of time flow.

The Hyuga clan's territory is very large, and they, who are in the center of the Hyuga clan's territory, cannot feel the prosperity of Konoha Village at night.

This training ground has been extremely quiet since the beginning.

Under the night sky, they could no longer feel the passage of time.

Time passed little by little, Hinata did not give up, and Ryosuke did not continue to persuade her, and accompanied her to continue the test.

Until the end, her movements had almost become as slow as a snail, and her face was so exhausted that she almost lost consciousness. She gritted her teeth and didn't say a word, and Ryosuke also didn't let her touch him at all.

Even now, Hinata no longer has the ability to use the Gentle Fist.

Her palm strikes had turned into weak fists, but he always took them seriously.

But even if he took it seriously, the gap between the two was too big, and Ryosuke always regarded this battle as a test for Hinata.

"Ms. Hinata, Master Ryosuke, I'll take Miss Hanabi back with me first."

In the end, it was the Aliang who came to the training ground and broke the stalemate.

Due to her young age, Hanabi had fallen asleep on the chair at some point in time.

In other words, people in this world generally have superior physical fitness; otherwise, she would probably catch a cold tomorrow, after all, it is already autumn.

"That's all for today."

Ryosuke looked at Hinata who had stopped moving and spoke again in a gentle voice.

Her face was full of reluctance, but Hinata's body had reached its limit. Her trembling body no longer had the extra strength to continue the test.

"Can you still walk?"

Ryosuke chuckled and walked over, trying to support her.

Seeing that they were getting closer, Hinata suddenly used up her last bit of strength and lunged forward.

Thump—

She fell to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

Even at the last moment, Ryosuke did not let down his guard and easily dodged.

"Hateful!"

Hinata lay on the ground unwillingly, no longer able to get up.

"Tell me, should I say that you are very competitive, or should I praise you for your strong character?"

Ryosuke shook his head helplessly, walked over, and helped her up. This time, when Hinata reached out to grab his collar, he did not dodge.

"Take a leave of absence tomorrow. In your current state, you may not be able to resume normal activities tomorrow... or even the day after tomorrow. It will be troublesome to face Inuzuka Kiba."

After helping her sit down on a chair to rest, Ryosuke spoke gently, "Inuzuka Kiba won't be like me; he'll fight back."

"Ryosuke...is my talent really that bad?"

Hinata pursed her lips and leaned weakly on Ryosuke, looking very lost.

The confidence that had been built up over this period of time was destroyed overnight.

"It's not shameful to lose to me." Ryosuke's expression was a little subtle. He was afraid that Hinata would set the goal too high and then fall into self-deprecation after failing to achieve it.

"What do you think my current level is?"

As he asked Hinata, he pulled up her delicate arms and kneaded them to help her relieve the soreness and pain in her muscles.

"Ryosuke is amazing, the most amazing person I have ever met."

Her answer was very soft, and for some reason, Ryosuke felt that Hinata's body seemed to be shaking even more violently.

"So who do you think is stronger... me, Kiba Inuzuka, or Uchiha Sasuke?"

Because it was a bit awkward to massage her while sitting, Ryosuke simply stood up and stood behind her, using gentle acupressure techniques to stimulate her back and clear her meridians.

You know, stimulating acupoints and unblocking meridians is also one of the common methods used by medical ninjas, and almost everyone in the Hyuga clan knows how to do it.

"Of course... Ryosuke is more powerful."

It seemed that the chakra used to clear the meridians and relieve the fatigue that made Hinata feel uncomfortable, and her voice was intermittent.

"That's it. If I'm stronger than them, shouldn't you target them first? After you defeat them, you can challenge me, the strongest one."

Ryosuke's tone was very gentle. Hinata's persistence and hard work made him like this girl more and more.
