Chapter 89: Hyuga Hiashi's Shock! Hinata's True Feelings! Please give me your monthly votes!!!
Ninjutsu: Sexy Technique, Shadow Clone Technique.
Taijutsu: Leaf Whirlwind, Leaf Great Whirlwind, Leaf Strong Whirlwind.
Pseudo-Nintaijutsu: Wind Body Flicker Technique, Wind Release: Gale Palm, Wind Style: Whirlwind Fist.
These are the techniques Naruto has summarized that he currently controls.
The reason they are called pseudo-Nintaijutsu is that they are not Nintaijutsu in the true sense.
Generally speaking, Ninjutsu requires Chakra refinement and hand seals to be released.
Taijutsu, on the other hand, does not require Chakra refinement (though not absolutely) nor hand seals to be released.
And Nintaijutsu... requires Chakra refinement but does not require hand seals to be released.
The most classic example, of course, is Raikage's Lightning Release Chakra Mode.
It clearly unleashes Chakra, and even has a nature transformation (Lightning Release), but the attacks used against enemies are still Taijutsu.
Examples of orthodox Taijutsu, such as Rock Lee, do not require Chakra or hand seals for any of his Taijutsu, except for the Eight Gates Formation.
Naruto's current pseudo-Nintaijutsu requires Chakra refinement and also hand seals.
However, it is indeed primarily an attack launched with Taijutsu.
Therefore, the current Nintaijutsu can only be considered a semi-finished product.
It is still very far from the true ultimate form of "Wind Release Chakra Mode."
The true Wind Release Chakra Mode should activate every cell in the body, unleashing unimaginable speed and strength, an existence that surpasses ordinary Ninja and Ninjutsu!
And now, it is merely a preliminary use of Wind Release's power, applied to the body to "blow himself away," simply to increase speed and strength.
Even so, Naruto, having undergone training with Asuma, now possesses an extraordinary understanding of Wind Release.
His own strength has also greatly increased... The system also provided a reward for completing Wind Release training within ten days.
This greatly increased the proficiency of all of Naruto's Wind Release Ninjutsu.
The next system mission is... [Host, please increase your Chakra reserves to 1000 points during the summer vacation!]
1000 points of Chakra!
That is to say, it is equivalent to a true Jonin level!
In fact, some Jonin probably don't even have 1000 points... During the exams, Naruto's Chakra reserves were around 360 points.
Now, with half the summer vacation over, it has increased to over five hundred points, a gain of more than a hundred... At this rate, even by the end of summer vacation, it would probably only be around six or seven hundred.
It's far from the system's requirement... "Hmm, it seems that while continuing other training, I need to intensify my Chakra improvement!"
Naruto made up his mind.
Of course, the training of various other Ninjutsu and Taijutsu cannot be interrupted, but at the same time, the focus will slightly shift towards Chakra improvement.
For the remaining ten-plus days, on one hand, he will improve his Chakra, and on the other hand, he will improve his academic performance.
These are the two small goals Naruto has tailor-made for himself now.
So... during this period, if Hinata had time, Naruto would tutor her.
If she didn't come, Naruto would focus on his own training.
This summer vacation has been more fulfilling than ever before... On this particular day.
Hinata changed her clothes, put on her sun hat, and was just about to leave.
Suddenly, a stern voice came from behind him.
"Hinata, are you going out again?"
Hinata was startled and quickly looked back, seeing her father Hyuga Hiashi's serious face.
"Fa-Father..."
Hyuga Hiashi walked closer to Hinata, his hands clasped behind his back.
"Don't think I don't know what you're going to do."
Hinata immediately lowered her head.
As the eldest daughter of the Hyuga Clan, Hinata actually always had people secretly guarding her.
It's just that they wouldn't show themselves unless necessary.
"Why are you helping that brat Uzumaki Naruto?"
Hinata's heart skipped a beat: "Father, I..."
Hyuga Hiashi said in a deep voice: "Even if you don't know the full picture, you should be able to sense that many secrets are hidden within that brat, and his identity and status are very sensitive..."
Hinata, of course, vaguely sensed all of this.
However... "Father, this, these have nothing to do with what I'm doing..."
"I don't care who Naruto-kun is, or what secrets he hides..."
Hyuga Hiashi frowned even more.
After all, he was an experienced man; how could he not understand his daughter's thoughts?
But in this way, it became even more dangerous.
"You like that brat?!"
Hinata's face instantly flushed red, she hesitated, rubbing the corner of her clothes, not daring to speak.
Hyuga Hiashi sighed.
"Why him of all people?"
Hinata whispered: "No, no reason..."
By saying this, she was essentially admitting it.
Hyuga Hiashi, however, was relentless.
"There must be a reason, right?"
Hinata was silent for a moment.
"Because Naruto-kun once saved me, and after that, I paid attention to him all the time, discovering his strength, his efforts, his never-give-up will..."
"Naruto-kun... he inspired me, making me see myself differently, and I also want to become better, stronger, and more outstanding..."
Hyuga Hiashi said: "So that's why you've been working harder than ever before?"
"Back then, to make you the successor of the Main House, I strictly taught you. Although you tried hard, your strength never improved enough, and you even lost to Hanabi in a match."
"Now that you are no longer the successor of the Main House, you have become even more diligent, and your strength is improving by leaps and bounds..."
"Could it be that my father's teaching is not as good as that brat's so-called inspiration?"
If it were the original Hinata, facing her father's stern expression, she would certainly be very timid and afraid.
But now, her personality is also slowly changing.
"Father, that's not it..."
"My slow progress in training before was because I never wanted to be the successor of the Main House."
"Losing to Hanabi, on one hand, was indeed because she was more outstanding than me, and on the other hand, it was also for this reason..."
"As for being inspired by Naruto-kun, I am striving to become stronger out of my own will, which is completely different from my previous mindset, so the results are naturally completely different..."
Hyuga Hiashi's expression changed slightly.
"You said you didn't want to be the successor of the Main House, why?"
Hinata looked up, and although her gaze wavered, she bravely met her father's eyes.
"Be-Because..."
"I have never liked the Main House-Branch House system of the Hyuga family."
"You..."
Hinata said: "Because of this system, Father and Hizashi-uncle went from being biological brothers to two opposing individuals..."
"Because of this system, I was also forced to compete with Hanabi..."
"And because of this system, Neji-nii hates our Main House to the bone..."
"Aside from causing brothers to fight, sisters to contend, and mutual hatred within the family, I, I see no benefit in this system..."
Hyuga Hiashi's heart suddenly trembled.
He naturally couldn't be unaware of the truth Hinata spoke.
What shocked him was that Hinata, at such a young age, had already harbored so many of her own thoughts and insights deep in her heart... He had always thought this daughter was kind but weak, gentle but timid, but in reality, he had underestimated her...
In fact, Hyuga Hiashi also hated the Main House system.
But wanting to change it, how easy was that... He sighed deeply and turned his back.
"Go, Hinata..."
Hinata gazed at her father's retreating figure, her heart still pounding wildly, but she was also very relieved that she finally dared to speak her true feelings to her father... Even if her father disliked her more because of it, it didn't matter.
Suddenly.
Hyuga Hiashi paused his steps and slightly turned his head.
"Oh, Hinata, I heard you got first place in the Ninja Academy assessment..."
"Well done, you are indeed my daughter."
Hinata stood frozen, her eyes wide, as if struck by lightning.
This was the first time her father had praised her... For a moment, looking at her father's receding back, tears blurred Hinata's vision... Chapter 90: Couple Training! The Legendary Dual Cultivation?! Please give me your monthly votes!!!
Hinata finally opened her heart to her father and spoke her true feelings.
Although the father and daughter did not have a deep conversation, they truly understood each other for the first time.
In reality, many so-called conflicts and disputes only arise from a lack of communication.
Especially within families and clans...
However, in this Ninja World, many Ninja adhere to the principle of absolutely no communication.
Any secrets are kept hidden in their hearts.
