Chapter 1010 Contingency

Being competitive is an instinctive desire that is difficult for most people to get rid of. All kinds of conflicts also arise because of their unwillingness to admit defeat.

Just as Miss Saya was working hard to make progress, intending to close the gap with Kurama Yakumo, who was displeased with her, Hinata Neji, who was also unsatisfied with the status quo, also had more expectations.

It is still difficult to expect a dramatic improvement in strength within a month or so, especially for ninjas who specialize in physical skills.

The father and son, Matt Dai and Met Kai, have worked hard all their lives for a moment of brilliance. Rock Lee has practiced hard for nearly ten years in order to prove himself in the Chuunin Exam.

Although Soft Fist is powerful, it is not more magical than the Eight Gate Dunjia Formation.

Hinata Neji, who does not have the reincarnation chakra of Indra and Asura, is not a Jinchuuriki, and does not have a powerful teacher to teach him step by step, naturally does not have the possibility to soar into the sky.

Being able to calm down to tap the potential of Byakugan and improve the power of Rou Fist when his mentality is fluctuating is already an incredible calmness for a fifteen or sixteen year old boy.

In the secret training ground, Hyuga Neji, who was sweating with his agile posture, struggled to hold on under the siege of puppets that were a little too powerful.

Soft Fist still has a strong deterrent effect on ordinary puppet masters. Byakugan can see chakra threads and puppet centers, and Soft Fist can provide effective strikes against weak points.

But these puppets in front of them are very special. Whether it is acupuncture, air strikes or chakra interception, their combat power can only be reduced for a short period of time, but they cannot be knocked down at once.

If you wait too long, these puppets can even automatically recover from damage.

If you cannot destroy it with absolute power, you will be knocked down by these troublesome puppets sooner or later.

With such a judgment, Hinata Neji doubted the applicability of Rouquan for the first time.

It's not that similar situations have never happened before, but they were not as obvious or serious as they are now.

"Rou Fist is indeed a bit powerless when facing inhuman monsters! 』

In the decades since the Hyuga family participated in the establishment of Konoha Village, not to mention competing for the position of Hokage, even the leaders of the main departments in the village have rarely sought it.

Being content with self-defense and not keen on fighting for power is only part of the reason. Unless there is a breakthrough, it is not easy for the combination of soft fist and white eyes to match the combat power of "Shadow".

The Hokage is in a dangerous position, and all the previous Hokages have died violently. The Hyuga family can indeed pull out a row of political talents with the ability to manage village affairs. Who can really lead the Konoha ninja to charge into battle and compete with the top ninjas of other great ninja villages? Masters have not appeared in decades.

Hyuga Neji is the genius who has the best hope of growing to that level in so many years, but after all, it is just potential, and no one can guarantee it until it is realized.

boom……

A puppet hit by Soft Fist and Bagua Kong Palm again was paralyzed by the fierce chakra. Seizing the opportunity, Hyuga Neji stepped forward, his fists flew up, and he continuously hit the surface of the puppet that had no ability to resist. At the same time, he used the energy released by his chakra to lift away other besieging puppets.

After more than ten seconds, the severely injured puppet finally exhausted all its strength and was torn into several pieces and fell to the ground, never to be reassembled.

At this moment, a burst of applause sounded:

"Well done, barely up to standard!"

The hidden hibiscus appeared from the edge of the battlefield, clapped her hands happily and said,

"Finally, all the hard work has not been in vain, the combat power has crossed the minimum threshold..."

"Is this still an introduction?"

Hyuga Neji gasped and looked at the ferocious dolls that had stopped moving around him.

"A single combat power is stronger than most of the chuunin, and there is such a miraculous and exquisite coordination that most jounin would be filled with hatred on the spot..."

"People at different levels face different enemies. You have to adapt in the future..."

Jin waved his hands and warned solemnly,

"If you just compare it with ordinary ninjas who have no reputation within the Hyuga family, how can you gain influence beyond the family?"

There is no overwhelming advantage, and not many people will be afraid of what he says.

It's not easy to get a conservative thousand-year-old family to change for you.

"So, once you reach the level of jounin, the evaluation standards will be different?"

Hinata Neji seemed to have some realization.

Jin replied:

"Dozens of jounin are born in the ninja world every year. If you are just a mediocre one among them, why should we go to such trouble to find you?"

"When did the respected 'Jounin' compare to the 'mediocre'..."

Hinata Neji felt helpless.

Although Jin's tone was extremely loud, he still recognized it.

Not long ago, in a certain challenge, this puppet, which seemed to lack some common sense but was ridiculously strong, defeated him without any suspense in three different ways.

After that, Hyuga Neji paid more attention to Jin's words, because he could vaguely feel that the puppet in front of him, who didn't seem to be much of a threat, was not trying his best.

As a newly promoted jounin, Hyuga Neji admits that there is still a big gap between him and the copy ninja Hatake Kakashi, teacher Metkai, and bearded Sarutobi Asuma, but he is also a relatively strong level among jounin.

At this level, it can hardly pose a substantial threat to Jin, which can already explain a lot of problems.

"If you need some 'encouragement' to be motivated, I can also help you. I am also good at words that can subtly change people's minds, but I just don't like to use them..."

"forget it!"

Hinata Neji waved his hand and said with some wan interest,

"There's no point in deceiving yourself, let's leave it at that! Speaking of which, I achieved the goal you set, so what's the 'surprise' I promised?"

Seeing that the other party changed the subject, Jin also went directly to the topic.

"Mainly two aspects! The power of the Hyuga family consists of the Byakugan and the Rou Fist, so they will naturally find ways in this field..."

"Huh? Tell me carefully..."

He moved a small chair and a small table, sat down gracefully, and made himself a cup of tea. Jin replied slowly:

"There is a conclusion that has been confirmed for a long time, that is, you are not suitable for learning the sage mode...at least you will not be able to cultivate it in a short period of time, and your physical strength and chakra volume are not up to standard..."

Hyuga Neji has long understood this.

Even if it was really possible to achieve it, Daimaru would not easily teach it to Hinata Neji. Unlike Uchiha Sasuke, he could exchange enough chips for Daimaru to teach him step by step.

With such difficulties, it must be quite difficult to absorb natural energy into the body.

This is not the case with the development direction that Daimaru and Jin established for Hyuga Neji.

"The Byakugan's chakra vision is the unparalleled weapon on which the Hyuga family is famous. However, the natural energy that is almost everywhere in the ninja world cannot be seen by the Byakugan..."

In fact, it's not just the Byakugan that can't be seen, almost all pupil techniques can't be done. Even the Magatama Rinnegan of the Ten-Tails Jinchuuriki, Daimaru doesn't dare to confirm whether it has natural energy vision.

Ninjas who are powerful to a certain extent can indeed vaguely sense the existence of natural energy, but there are very few ninjas who can use it.

"You mean..."

Hinata Neji's heart moved, and he looked at Jin in disbelief.

"It's not what you think!"

Jin shook his head,

"At least I can't make Byakugan see the natural energy now. However, it doesn't matter if you can't see it. You can understand its flow traces in a roundabout way..."

There are many things that cannot be seen or touched, but can be understood indirectly through some sense organs.

For example, the flow of air is invisible to the human eye, but humans can judge the rhythm of wind direction and wind speed through the touch of skin and the traces of smoke drifting.

Natural energy is like air, and the chakra emitted by ninjas enters the smoke. As long as you can grasp the rules of the mutual blending and diffusion of the two, you can intuitively understand some basic information about natural energy.

Ordinary ninjas, not to mention natural energy, cannot even see basic chakra, and only the magical eye technique of Byakugan can indirectly understand it.

Daimaru, who has already cultivated into the immortal mode, has gained some experience over the past few days.

Daimaru didn't know whether the immortals of the three major spiritual beast holy places spent their energy in this field, but human ninjas who were not as good as each other in all aspects could create and use natural energy without the help of these laws summarized from "natural phenomena". If you use this method, you won't be able to compete with those psychic beast holy places.

If your congenital conditions are poor, you can only make up for them the day after tomorrow.

"It sounds reasonable..."

After listening to Jin's specious explanation, Hyuga Neji thought for a while and asked,

"But even if I can see it, what's the use? I have almost no way to use it..."

"You didn't, I did..."

Jin said very confidently,

"To be honest, it's not that magical. Natural energy and chakra are very different, but the energy type is the same. It can be transformed and borrowed under certain conditions..."

For example, the chakra of ninjas and the chakra of tailed beasts are in serious conflict. They are in the same body and can easily interfere with each other. Natural energy is the product of the entire ninja world's tangible material and invisible spirit. It is difficult to borrow it. It is even more difficult to achieve.

"You are different. If you can see chakra, you actually have the possibility to take advantage of the situation and borrow natural energy to strengthen your combat power. The only thing missing is the specific implementation method..."

"I... I probably understand what you mean..."

After Hyuga Neji was silent for a long time, he suddenly realized,

"You mean Rou Quan has such potential?"

"Yes, my brain is very good..."

Jin nodded appreciatively,

"Of course, you just have potential. Whether you can succeed or not depends on your ability..."

Soft fist is an extremely rare external continuous control type of physical technique. Hinata Hinata's Soft Step Double Lion Fist is a very typical example.

It is indeed a very good method to use the exquisite chakra control to wrap the power of the soft fist around the arms to expand the strike range.

Is there a way in the ninja world to actively absorb natural energy and enhance the power of ninjutsu?

The answer is yes.

The famous Curse Seal, a product of the degradation of Immortal Mode, can do it.

It's just that the curse seal is too dangerous and may not be suitable for Hinata Neji.

What's more, the tactics of absorbing natural energy into the body and releasing chakra externally through soft fists are actually completely opposite.

Therefore, the process of sensing, absorbing, merging into Senjutsu Chakra and then releasing it to perform Ninjutsu must be simplified to sensing, guiding and directly strengthening the power of Ninjutsu, eliminating the dangerous step of letting natural energy enter the body.

"Ordinary ninjas only regard chakra as the energy that combines the vitality and spiritual power extracted from human cells and can perform ninjutsu. This is not wrong, but you and I cannot have such a superficial understanding. , Next, I will teach you a small technique to temporarily isolate the interference of the curse seal, make up for the lack of insight of your white eyes, and some methods on how to indirectly mobilize natural energy for your own use..."

In fact, the ninja world already has a way to do this, that is, the sealing techniques and barrier techniques that are being studied by all the major ninja villages more or less borrow natural energy. Otherwise, how could the mere seals and talismans be used to make the tail? Even the beasts are powerless to resist?

But how to make Soft Boxing have the power to mobilize natural energy will definitely not be that easy.

Next, Hyuga Neji completely let go of his defenses, letting Jin take over his perception, letting her control his body, and perform a series of plausible soft fists.

Under the observation of Byakugan, who was obviously much sharper, the changes at the intersection of the soft fist energy and the invisible and colorless natural energy that could not be directly controlled were recorded one by one.

Dancing continuously with each punch, the Soft Fist chakra originally wrapped around the arm seemed to manifest a lavender halo under the blessing of some magical power.

"This is?"

It was the first time for the genius of the Hyuga family to see such a change in Rou Fist, and he looked at the change in surprise.

"Have you seen the purple-black and dangerous chakra that makes people feel evil after the curse seal of Uchiha Sasuke explodes? It's somewhat similar to that, but safer..."

In essence, it is an unstable combination of one's own chakra and natural energy. It is not the orthodox magic chakra, and it is naturally impossible to stimulate the sage mode.

Kina controlled the one used by Hyuga Neji, and did not even absorb the natural energy and this extremely degraded fusion power into the body. He only used some techniques to strengthen the power of the Rou Fist outside the body.

"It turns out that real masters use their power in this way. No wonder..."

"Individuals are small and always have their limits. It does not mean that ninjas cannot break through the shackles with their own strength. For example, the first generation of Naruto, Senju Hashirama, broke through the limits of human beings. But it is more difficult for ordinary people to do this. Difficult……"

"That's it!"

Hyuga Neji, who was feeling it quietly, generally agreed with Jin's words, but he always felt that there was something unfinished about him. After thinking about it for a long time, he suddenly felt something in his heart,

"Wait a minute, with this improved soft fist, the method of defeating enemies is not limited to acupuncture points, chakra breaking, and attacking internal organs, meridians and acupuncture points from a distance. Suppressing people with force is the main way to hurt the enemy. In other words... …”

"You are really a clever little guy..."

Jin shrugged and admitted openly,

"Without Byakugan, it can still be used. The difference is not big..."

But that's not Soft Boxing anymore.
