At the same time, Shinichi Hyuga swiftly pulled a kunai from his ninja tool bag with his left hand. While his right hand made a sword-finger thrust attack, his left hand also swiftly shot a kunai towards Juzo Biwa's feet.

"This little devil..."

Pipa Juzo suddenly turned around and saw Hyuga Shinichi, who had already approached him. While he became wary, he also noticed that the direction of the kunai he was shooting at had changed and posed no threat to him, so he ignored it.

On the contrary, Shinichi Hyuga's Gentle Fist attack, which quickly closed the distance, made Juzo Biwa pay full attention.

Shinichi was moving so fast that he couldn't defend in time while wielding his greatsword. So, Kizo simply loosened his right hand and let the battle sword fall while simultaneously bracing his arms to the sides, intending to use the armor on his arms to block the Hyuga clan's Gentle Fist.

After recognizing Hyuga Yuta and his group, Biwa Juzo had already mentally rehearsed the key points to consider when fighting the Hyuga ninjas.

The Hyuga clan's Gentle Fist is renowned throughout the ninja world, but its weakness is also very obvious: the Gentle Fist, which is based on taijutsu, has weak piercing ability. Even with slightly harder armor, it can block the most lethal pressure point attack of the Gentle Fist.

Normally, as long as a ninja's taijutsu can suppress a Hyuga ninja, and they are fully armed with armor, they have a chance to defeat the Hyuga ninja in a one-on-one situation.

Ultimately, the Byakugan's role in support abilities is far greater than its role in combat. Konoha doesn't use Hyuga ninjas for frontal combat; they are often assigned to intelligence gathering and reconnaissance.

Shinichi Hyuga was just a kid. In Juzo Biwa's eyes, it was already quite remarkable that the other party had mastered Gentle Fist. If he dealt with him seriously, he might even find an opportunity to capture him and find a way out for himself.

However, to Biwa Juzo's surprise, just as Hyuga Shin, who was right in front of him, was about to strike the arm guard, the small, thin figure suddenly disappeared from Biwa Juzo's sight.

The next instant, a terrifying force came directly from the abdomen of Pipa Juzo.

Lightning-attribute chakra covered Shinichi Hyuga's fingers as he attacked, and the piercing force caused Shinichi's Gentle Fist to pierce through Juzo Biwa's abdominal armor and strike his flesh.

The powerful chakra surged through his skin into his meridians, directly blocking the flow of chakra in his body.

"Well--"

The intense pain caused Juzo Biwa to let out a whimper. He slowly turned his head with a blank look in his eyes, only to find that Shinichi Hyuga, who had just disappeared from his side, had suddenly appeared in front of him and delivered a Gentle Fist directly to his body.

Pipa Juzo stiffened, unconsciously taking a step back to separate himself from Hinata Shinichi. At the same time, the intense pain forced him to bend over and kneel on the ground, panting heavily, looking exhausted.

“What…is going on?!”

Pipa Juzo had no idea how the brat in front of him had managed to appear in front of him. By the time he caught sight of him again, the brat had already been struck in a pressure point, and he probably couldn't even muster 20% of his full power at this stage.

Unwilling to give up, Juzo Biwa quickly crouched down, grabbed the Executioner's Blade, and suddenly slashed at Shinichi Hyuga in front of him.

However, the opponent's counterattack seemed to be exactly what Shinichi had anticipated. As his toes lightly touched the ground, Shinichi Hyuga quickly jumped back, widening the distance between himself and Juzo Biwa.

Meanwhile, the Hyuga clan members surrounding the battlefield saw that even after Biwa Juzo was acupunctured, he still fought back bravely, so they tightened their encirclement, fearing that Shinichi might be overturned by the enemy on his deathbed due to temporary victory and pride.

Similar incidents were common during wartime, and the ninjas who made such mistakes were often those who were new to the battlefield or "genius ninjas" who had long been favored by a group of people.

However, Shinichi Hyuga was not an arrogant person. After striking Juzo Biwa's pressure points, Shinichi did not underestimate the opponent's counterattack. While creating distance, he raised his right hand and directly swung a Bagua Empty Palm at Juzo Biwa.

The empty palm struck Biwa Juzo's chin directly, and the immense force sent him flying, as he already struggled to mobilize his chakra.

"Bam—"

As Juzo Biwa's body crashed heavily to the ground, the guillotine in his hand also slipped from his grasp and fell to the ground.

Seeing this, the Hyuga ninjas who were watching from the sidelines believed that the battle was over. They immediately rushed forward and firmly pinned down Biwa Juzo, who was trying to get up. At the same time, the clansmen also skillfully took out steel wire ropes and tied Biwa Juzo's hands behind his back, binding him tightly.

Then Hyuga Hizashi grabbed Biwa Juzo by the back of his neck and pulled him directly in front of Shinichi, kicking Biwa Juzo in the back of his knees and forcibly forcing him to kneel in front of Shinichi.

Of the six Mist Ninja, five died, and their leader, Juzo Biwa, was captured by the Hyuga clan ninjas.

From the moment Shinichi made his move to the end of the battle, everything happened incredibly fast. Ordinary ninjas were decapitated in a single exchange against Shinichi's Flying Thunder God Technique. Even elite ninjas as strong as the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist could not last more than ten rounds against Shinichi.

Even if Shinichi didn't use any weapons and only relied on Flying Thunder God and Gentle Fist, he could still defeat Kizo Biwa.

The reason why such elites could be defeated so easily is ultimately due to a lack of intelligence.

If he knew that Shinichi Hyuga not only mastered the Hyuga clan's Gentle Fist, but also the Flying Thunder God Technique, then he would have been more prepared for the kunai that had just missed its mark.

As long as he is prepared for the Flying Thunder God Technique, he will not gamble everything by using the arm guards on his arm to defend against Shinichi's Gentle Fist attack.

Furthermore, Juzo Biwa had not anticipated that a child of Shinichi's age could perfectly master the nature transformation of chakra. Shinichi's Gentle Fist was different from that of most Hyuga clan members; it could penetrate armor.

Even after being escorted to Shinichi Hyuga, he was still somewhat dazed, seemingly unable to believe that a ninja of his caliber could be so easily subdued.

Even though he knew that escaping from the encirclement of so many Hyuga ninjas would be extremely difficult, he still envisioned that even if he couldn't defeat them, he could take some of them with him to their deaths.

Unexpectedly... in just a few moves, he had already become a prisoner of the Hyuga ninja.

Shinichi Hyuga stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at Juzo Biwa, who was kneeling in front of him. He was somewhat dissatisfied with his performance in the face of battle.

Having his weapon knocked from his hand by someone's hand was still quite an unsightly sight, even though he wasn't exactly a skilled swordsman.

However, the final result was good, and Shinichi was satisfied with the effectiveness of the Flying Thunder God Technique in actual combat.

Loquat Ten Treasures...

Although the memory was somewhat distant, Shinichi Hyuga recognized the person in front of him as Juzo Biwa, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.

Even a ninja like Shinichi showed signs of being "unable to react" in front of the Flying Thunder God Technique, which is enough to prove the level of Shinichi's Flying Thunder God Technique skills.

Perhaps his speed is slightly inferior to that of Minato Namikaze, but it is more than enough to deal with ordinary ninjas.

As for the claim that Shinichi's mastery of the Flying Thunder God Technique is inferior to Minato's? Shinichi can easily accept that. Even the Second Hokage, the creator of the Flying Thunder God Technique, couldn't match Minato's speed. At his age, what's so unacceptable about his skill level being slightly lower?

The Hyuga clan members gathered around, surrounding Shinichi Hyuga and scrutinizing the Kirigakure prisoner before them.

In this short while, not only Shinichi Hyuga recognized Juzo Biwa, but some members of the Hyuga clan also recognized this member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.

However, Shinichi didn't say anything, and they swallowed back the compliments they had in mind, only secretly marveling at the situation.

Many people had only heard rumors of Shinichi's genius, and a few had actually witnessed his battle with Danzo. But today, Shinichi's swift and decisive defeat of so many Kirigakure ninjas reminded them of Minato Namikaze in his prime.

This is how the Golden Flash fought on the battlefield, and Hyuga Shinichi's use of the Flying Thunder God Technique is considered by the Hyuga clan to be no less impressive than that of the current Fourth Hokage, Namikaze Minato.

After gazing at the loquat tree for a long time, Shinichi slowly spoke:

"Ao, where is that ninja from Kirigakure who's named Ao?"

"If you can provide accurate information, I might consider not killing you."

Even though he knew in his heart that his interrogation might not be effective, Shinichi Hyuga still asked a question.

In Shinichi's memory, Juzo Biwa was the kind of man who would use his body to block a Tailed Beast Ball for his comrades. Although he didn't know why he saw him so easily let his subordinates become cannon fodder, Shinichi's impression of this man wasn't bad.

They decided to give the other party a chance to live.

"green?!"

Upon hearing this name, Juzo Biwa's eye twitched involuntarily. He instantly realized why he had encountered so many Hyuga ninjas on the border. It turned out that... this group of Hyuga was after the Byakugan, and he had just been unlucky enough to run into the "Oni" card!

Thinking about it now... since Ao tricked and injured the head of the Hyuga clan, the other side obviously sent a stronger force to deal with him.

Upon learning the Hyuga clan's purpose, Juzo Biwa's expression changed several times. He knew he had just had bad luck and encountered a ghost.

Upon hearing Shinichi Hyuga's question, Juzo Biwa also showed a thoughtful expression.

The other party is a Konoha ninja, who are mortal enemies of the Mist Ninja in the current situation. However, their target is Ao, and the person in charge seems to be a kid.

Following their advice might actually offer a glimmer of hope, but seizing that glimmer requires careful planning and consideration, and it's essential to make good use of one's identity and the intelligence one possesses.

Just as Pipa Juzo was pondering how to break the deadlock, a voice entered his ears.

"What? You're unwilling to betray your comrades?"

"Do you think a guy like you, who would use his subordinates as scapegoats to cover your retreat, would cherish his comrades?"

Yuta Hyuga was standing next to Juzo Biwa at that moment. Seeing the other party's hesitant appearance, he couldn't help but speak sarcastically.

Juzo Biwa's little tricks might have fooled the other Kirigakure ninja who were in a high state of tension within the encirclement, but they couldn't fool the Hyuga clan members who possessed the Byakugan.

Since the start of the battle, Yuuta Hinata's attention has been focused on Juzo Biwa and has never left him.

"What did you say?"

"What would someone like you know!"

"Only if someone with my strength survives can we better protect our village!"

"It was their responsibility and their awareness to cover my retreat!"

"You think they didn't notice my actions?!"

"My partners all understand this; it's an unspoken understanding between us!!"

"Don't insult the resolve of us Mist Ninja!!!"

Biwa Juzo turned his head and stared intently at Hyuga Yuta. Suddenly, he became agitated. Hyuga Yuta's words stung Biwa Juzo, and Biwa Juzo, who was kneeling in front of Hyuga Shinichi, began to twist violently, as if trying to break free from his restraints.

"Calm down!"

Fearing that Biwa Juzo might break free, Hyuga Hizashi, who was watching over him, gave a low shout and pressed his hands down on Biwa Juzo's shoulders. Even under restraint, Biwa Juzo's strength was still terrifying, and even Hizashi had difficulty holding him down.

Just as the other party was about to explode, Shinichi Hyuga suddenly spoke up:

"You don't think that... if I act tough, I'll think more highly of you, do you?"

"Don't make a futile struggle. Tell me about Qing, and I will fulfill my promise."

Shinichi Hyuga's words immediately calmed down the enraged Juzo Biwa. Even when he was angry, Juzo Biwa knew very well who he should and should not be angry with.

Shinichi Hyuga is the absolute leader of this team, a fact that Juzo Biwa has already deduced from his various actions.

He knew that as long as he could gain Shinichi Hyuga's favor, he could greatly increase his chances of survival.
