I practice martial arts in Konoha

"untie!"

The transfer seal is unlocked.

The chakra that originally belonged to Neji was released.

With the help of this chakra, his soul easily took over Arashimaru's body.

"Um……"

Neji walked a few steps against Arashimaru's body and flapped his wings.

Because Arashimaru didn't resist, he felt that the chakra was not consumed quickly and could last for about an hour.

If he keeps extracting Arashimaru's chakra, it can last longer.

But Arashimaru is just a goshawk after all.

Its body cannot bear two souls for a long time.

Neji's soul is parasitic in Arashimaru's body, which is okay for a short time, but over time, he will have to fall asleep for most of the day, thus reducing consumption.

despite this.

This is also a powerful trump card.

With this trump card.

From now on, the Hyuga clan will never think of killing him easily through the Caged Bird Curse Seal.

Fire Country Forest.

boom!

The detonating talisman made a loud sound, and the fire was accompanied by air waves.

The smoke dissipated.

Tatsuya and his three teammates all looked at the wandering ninja who was in the center of the explosion unscathed with shocked expressions.

"Haruhiko, Kyoko, Tatsuya..." the chuunin captain shouted: "You go first, I will take the lead!"

Tatsuya: "Are you kidding? I am no longer the person I used to be. I will not run away again!"

"Tatsuya, don't be impulsive!"

The chuunin captain spoke gravely.

"If I read it correctly, the technique used by the opponent should be Earth Release and Hardening Technique. It can harden his body to be harder than rock. It is used to defend against various physical attacks. Judging from the fact that the opponent can ignore the power of the detonating talisman Look, he has obviously reached the level of a jounin... I am not sure I can hold him back for too long, so run away!"

"Is it a Jōnin-level jutsu?" Tatsuya's eyes lit up and he became inexplicably excited, "Then I'm about to learn about it!"

Before he finished speaking, Tatsuya had already rushed out with a kunai in hand.

"Tatsuya!"

"careful!"

Teammates Haruhiko and Kyoko couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Hardening Technique...I don't believe you can even harden your eyes!"

Tatsuya rushed forward and poked the wandering ninja in the eyes with the kunai in his hand, without concealing his intention to attack.

"Humph!"

The wandering ninja sneered and grabbed Tatsuya's kunai with his hand.

"Soft Fist Technique·Mianzhang!"

Tatsuya also sneered, let go of the caught kunai, turned his body slightly to one side, and took advantage of the moment when he passed by the opponent, lightly patted his chest with his palm, and immediately accelerated his feet to rush forward, fighting with The opponent distanced himself.

"Boy, are you tickling me?"

The wandering ninja laughed.

The chunin captain had a dark look on his face: "You idiot Tatsuya, did you tell me that the hardening technique was applied to the opponent? Taijutsu attacks are useless!"

"Not necessarily!"

"No technique can resist the ultimate Taijutsu secret taught to me by Neji-sama!"

Tatsuya took a breath and turned to look at the wandering ninja with a dead look in his eyes.

"As my first sacrifice on the road to becoming a strong man, you are qualified for me to remember your name. Tell me, what is your name?"

"Boy, do you want to laugh me to death?!!"

The wandering ninja smiled and laughed, but suddenly his throat felt fishy, ​​his nostrils felt hot, and blood spurted out from his mouth and nose at the same time.

"That slap just now...why didn't I...feel it?"

Tatsuya: "Because the moment my cotton palm destroyed your heart, it also destroyed the pain-sensing nerves!"

"So... that's how it is!"

The wandering ninja fell down helplessly.

"Tatsuya, I didn't expect you to have grown to this point without knowing it!"

The chuunin captain and two teammates came over, their expressions a little complicated.

"After returning to the village this time, I will apply to be a teacher at the Ninja School. If you want to take the Chunin Exam this year, I will write a recommendation letter for you."

Tatsuya: "Thank you, Captain Iruka."

Iruka took out the storage scroll and went to collect the bodies of the wandering ninjas.

Tatsuya: "Haruhiko, Kyoko, did you see which direction the group of monkeys on the canopy of the tree ran to?"

Kyoko was furious: "What the hell are you doing, Tatsuya? When you leave the village this time, you are either chasing tigers or looking for pythons. You are very strange!"

Sungai tribe.

Soft boxing training ground.

"Brother Neji, come on!"

Hinata rolled her eyes ferociously and put on a soft fist defensive stance.

Hinata Hizashi is not here today, probably studying Bagua Yushen Palm with all the Hyuga ninja.

So Neji originally wanted to catch a fish and fool him through today's sparring.

Anyway, he no longer expected to get anything good from the Hyuga clan.

Unexpectedly, Hinata became serious instead.

Seeing how motivated she was, Neji also became interested.

"Hinata, if you want to become a soft fist master, you must first understand a truth."

"A thousand Hyuga clan members have a thousand kinds of soft fists."

"The soft boxing techniques used by each Hyuga clan member, even if the movements look similar, actually have different styles. This is determined by their respective personalities and life experiences, and also determines their path to soft boxing. direction."

"What about you Hinata?"

"What kind of style do you think your soft boxing should have?"

Hinata: "..."

Although I don’t understand what Neji-nii is talking about, it sounds awesome!

Neji soon realized that he was talking to a cow, so he decisively changed his words.

"guard!"

"Hinata, your soft fist style is protection!"

"Not only Unomaru, Shimomaru, and Yukimaru, but also Hizu-sama, Sister Natsu, and even the entire Hyuga clan and the entire Konoha Village are the ones you protect!"

Hinata: "But my father is the clan leader, and his soft fist is a thousand times more powerful than mine. Konoha Village has the strongest Sandaime Hokage, and there are many powerful Jonin. They shouldn't need my protection, right?"

"No matter Mr. Hizu, the Hokage or the Jonin, they are all getting older day by day. Sooner or later, one day, you will be the Jounin of Konoha and the leader of the Hyuga clan. The future of Konoha and Hinata must be protected by you!"

"But what shall I do?"

"Guarding is the core, but guarding is not just passive defense, but a defensive counterattack!"

"In the initial stage, you can look for the enemy's flaws in defense, and then wait for opportunities to counterattack to win. But to become a strong player, you must combine defense and counterattack into one, and do it in one go, without leaving any chance for the enemy!"

"Defensive counterattack...I understand!"

Hinata nodded heavily.

"Blind eyes!"

Neji's meridians bulged out from the corners of his eyes, and he took a soft fist stance.

"It's not enough to understand in your heart, you must understand in your body."

"This time, I will use soft fists and acupuncture points. If you are hit too many times, your chakra will be blocked and you will lose your fighting ability."

Hinata said seriously: "Brother Neji, come on, my body is ready!"

"..."

Neji's mouth twitched.
