Civilian Naruto: Becoming invincible from the Eight Gates

"Wow... so awesome!" Rock Lee said in surprise.

"Indeed. The technique that Senior Musashi taught Tenten is very powerful." Hyuga Neji said solemnly, "If I were to encounter it head-on, I wouldn't be sure I could take it."

"You can only look for opportunities to attack the caster."

Rock Lee asked curiously, "Doesn't the Soft Fist have a move that is also known as an absolute defensive move?"

Hyuga Neji looked at him coldly, his eyes looking as if he was going to hit him: "Yes, but I am not qualified to learn."

Xiao Li: “…I’m sorry.”

"It's okay." Hyuga Neji retracted his gaze: "It's just a ninjutsu. Since the predecessors were able to create this jutsu out of thin air, there is no reason why the future generations cannot do it."

"Really? Then Neci, you have to work harder!" Rock Lee said with innocent eyes.

Then, he looked at the arena, thinking about the ninjutsu that Tiantian had just performed, with envy in his eyes.

"Tenten is so lucky. I really want to learn powerful ninjutsu~"

……

"Si...Si Guoyi!~" *2. At the edge of the nearest stand, Uzumaki Naruto and Rock Lee held the railing and said with their eyes wide open.

"It's a very powerful technique." Uchiha Sasuke also came over and spoke with a serious look.

"The female ninja of Sunagakure is very strong. I didn't expect that Tenten could tie with him." As he said that, Uchiha Sasuke turned his head and looked at Uzumaki Naruto.

[Boss, you are so biased! You know such a powerful technique but you don’t teach me! ]

[Brother Musashi is so biased! He knows such a powerful technique but he doesn't teach me! ]

[I'll ask the boss (Musashi) to teach me this technique when I get back! ]

……

"That jutsu is the Rasengan for sure." Sarutobi Hiruzen stood on the high platform and watched from afar as Suzumiya Musashi carried Tenten to the stands. Uchiha Izumi, who had been watching the fight in the stands, immediately took over silently and began treatment.

"Did Minato teach him..." Exhaling a puff of smoke to block his vision, Sarutobi Hiruzen recalled the way Suzumiya Musashi looked when he first came into contact with Uzumaki Naruto.

'I will not leave Naruto, and I will never allow anyone to make me leave for any reason! Where the leaves of Konoha dance, the fire will never cease. Although I cannot protect the entire village like the Hokage, I will still carry out this will of fire to the end, and use my own strength to burn myself for the brightness of the village.'

The young man's passionate and impulsive look seemed to still be before his eyes.

Thinking about the techniques mastered by Suzumiya Musashi, Sarutobi Hiruzen knew that he had misjudged him.

Regardless of whether Suzumiya Musashi's will of fire is pure, the other party is definitely not as innocent as he appears to be.

"Musashi, it seems that you are also a person with worries."

"Forget it, let's deal with it after the Chunin Exam." Sarutobi Hiruzen whispered to himself, putting the matter aside for the time being.

The most important thing right now is to ensure the smooth progress of the Chunin Exam and to be prepared for the sudden appearance of Orochimaru.

-

"The game continues."

"Next game, ..."

"The next match is between Hinata Hyuga and Neji Hyuga!"

Looking at the two people walking into the arena, Suzumiya Musashi felt that there must be something shady about the arrangement of the contestants!

It seems strange no matter how you look at it to have the main and branch families of Hyuga confront each other.

The conflict between the Hyuga main family and the branch family has a long history.

In the previous generation, Hyuga Hizashi died for Hyuga Hiashi.

Now, Neji, the outstanding descendant of Hizashi, faces off against Hinata, the ordinary eldest daughter of the Hyuga clan.

It looks full of drama.

As soon as the battle started, Hyuga Neji showed his full suppressive power.

Facing the eldest daughter of the Zong family, he showed no mercy and every move was ruthless.

The Hyuga family's unique soft fist, with strong penetrating power, hit Hyuga Hinata's body with chakra, making Suzumiya Musashi frown.

Another Sigma man.

However, there is no distinction between men and women in the arena. Hinata has not admitted defeat, so Suzumiya Musashi naturally will not take any action to stop her. He just watches quietly.

By the way, let’s analyze the characteristics of soft fist.

Compared to the hard boxing that he and Might Guy mainly practiced, the characteristics of soft boxing are very distinct.

Precise, subtle, elegant... Under the extremely penetrating soft fist chakra attack, ordinary defense is completely ineffective. Once hit, the enemy's response will become increasingly difficult until they are unable to move.

Of course, there are also disadvantages.

It's fine when facing ordinary enemies, but once facing long-range attacks and powerful ninjutsu, the disadvantage of the soft fist's insufficient attack range will become apparent.

As for the so-called absolute defense - Huitian.

Too fast, not lasting enough.

Suzumiya Musashi felt that compared to the very majestic-sounding 'Kaiten', this move was more suitable for another name - 'Don't Come Close to Me'!

Even if we don't consider the Byakugan, this technique is not suitable for him.

In the field.

As the battle continued, Hyuga Neji couldn't help but start a conversation with Hyuga Hinata, who was not very motivated to fight.

Things like 'fate', 'family', 'bird in a cage', etc.

However, Hyuga Hinata still had no intention of fighting.

When he saw Hyuga Neji performing the family's secret 'Eight Trigrams Sixty-four Palms', only sadness remained in his eyes.

This is her brother, who clearly has talents far superior to hers, but is destined to bear a tragic fate just because of his different background.

As a gentle person, she had no desire to fight against such an opponent.

"Bang!~"

Hyuga Hinata could no longer hold on and collapsed to the ground.

"The winner is Hyuga Neji." Suzumiya Musashi immediately announced the result of the game.

Hyuga Hinata fell to the ground. She had obviously lost, but she still said: "All along... you have suffered more than me."

"The one who is confused and in pain... is you."

Hyuga Neji's eyes flickered.

The dead Hyuga Hizashi;

They were obviously of the same clan, but they could not be taught the "Eight Trigrams Sixty-four Palms" and "Return to Heaven";

The 'bird in a cage' that can't be escaped.

Hinata Hyuga's pitying eyes made his remaining sanity completely disappear, and he rushed towards Hinata Hyuga like a madman.

"Oh!"

A green figure flashed before my eyes in an instant.

The soft fist struck out fiercely, hitting the opponent's chest and abdomen, like hitting a stone wall.

Hyuga Neji raised his head, and there was still some madness in his shocked eyes.

"Musashi-senpai, do you also want to protect the young lady of the main family!?"

Feeling the effect of the soft fist chakra impacting his body, Suzumiya Musashi said seriously: "First, the game is over. It is against the rules to attack now."

"second."

"Even if I protect Hinata, it's not because of her status as the eldest daughter of the Hyuga family, but because she is Naruto's... friend."

"Naruto's friend?" Hyuga Neji's madness slowly subsided. Looking at Hyuga Hinata beside him, he couldn't imagine how the other person, who was so dull, could have other friends.

"That's right, Naruto's friend." Suzumiya Musashi said, pointing at Hyuga Hinata.

"She has been training with us in the woods for a long time."

"Yes, I'm talking about you, Hinata. I know everything you did secretly."
