Hanabi placed her soft, white hand in Neji's, giggling.

Indeed, cuteness is justice.

"The host has joined hands with Hinata Hanabi and received the reward [Removal of the Caged Bird Seal]."

Upon hearing the system notification, Neji abruptly stopped in his tracks.

There really are rewards.

And it's exactly the reward I want right now.

May all your wishes come true?!

I subconsciously touched my forehead, but unfortunately there were too many people, so I couldn't take it off to look at it.

"Huh? Neji-nii, what's wrong?" Hanabi asked curiously when she saw Neji suddenly stop.

"It's alright, let's go." Neji patted Hanabi's little head.

Because the cursed seal was lifted, Neji was very happy at the moment and unconsciously became more friendly towards Hanabi.

"The host performed a head pat on Hyuga Hanabi and received the reward [Wind Release Chakra]."

Neji's lips twitched slightly. If this system's judgment method was followed, then...

He touched Hanabi's hair again, but found nothing.

"It seems that each interaction can only be used once per person," Neji thought to himself.

The Hyuga clan members who were hiding in the shadows to protect Hanabi were stunned when Neji took Hanabi away.

If he hadn't activated his Byakugan, one would have really thought someone had used a transformation technique to trick Hanabi.

Soon, Neji delivered the fireworks to his doorstep.

"We've arrived," Neji said.

"Yes, Neji-nii-nii," Hanabi said with a smile.

After saying that, he spread his arms and ran back into the house excitedly.

"Host brought Hyuga Hanabi home, obtained..."

Chapter 4 Hanabi's Temper Rages

"Host brought Hyuga Hanabi home, reward: [Chakra amount doubled]." The system notification sounded at the right time.

Chakra levels have doubled!

Neji was delighted; this would lay the foundation for his future dual cultivation of ninjutsu and taijutsu.

In short, he doesn't lack mana anymore.

Glug~ Glug~

I patted my stomach, which was acting up a bit, and looked up at the sky. There was still some time to go, so I should focus on getting by first.

Then he turned and walked into another room.

After Neji left, Hanabi suddenly peeked out, biting her index finger, and murmured, "Neji-nii seems different from before."

After dinner, he went to the training ground again to practice with the puppets.

Everything is for the sake of becoming stronger.

Neji was very satisfied to see himself improving at a visible pace.

"Indeed, only continuous effort will work."

Genius is 99 percent perspiration and 1 percent inspiration.

"Ok?"

At that moment, Neji's eyes suddenly caught sight of two figures walking towards them.

Hinata Hyuga! Hanabi Hyuga!

What are they doing here?

"Neji-nii-nii..."

"Good evening, Neji-nii-san."

Hinata and Hanabi greeted Neji when they saw him looking over.

"What are you doing here?" Neji frowned slightly.

At this moment, he was extremely flustered, worried that his removal of the caged bird curse seal had been discovered.

"We, we... want..." Hinata stammered, seemingly still remembering what happened today.

"We want Neji-nii to practice with us," Hanabi said casually.

Actually, they felt that Neji was in a good mood today and wanted to improve their relationship.

"practise?"

"I see," Neji breathed a sigh of relief, followed by a hint of joy.

A reward has been delivered to my doorstep.

Neji glanced around and said, "Alright, let's begin."

The practice they were talking about was two people sparring.

"Who will be in the first match?" Neji asked.

"Me!" Hanabi excitedly raised her hand.

"Come on." Neji glanced at it briefly.

"Hmph! Neji-nii, take this!" Hanabi shouted, raising her pink little fists and charging at Neji.

Honestly, Neji is in a complete panic right now.

Such a cute little firework, I hope it won't cry from punching itself...

Left with no other choice, Neji could only hide wherever he could.

No matter how talented Hanabi is, she's still too young. Compared to Neji, who has already reached the level of an elite Chunin, the gap is quite large.

Neji saw nothing but flaws in Hanabi's defenses.

After a few rounds, Neji simply lifted Hanabi up, thus ending the battle.

"Your attacks are too slow, you haven't mastered the body's pressure points, and your strength is insufficient..." Neji pointed out Hanabi's shortcomings one by one.

Pointing out their mistakes can help them improve more quickly.

Neji also hoped that they could improve their strength, at least to the point where they could protect themselves.

Hanabi was filled with shame: "Hmph! I'll try my best!"

Then, Hanabi went off to practice on a wooden stake a short distance away.

"Host has trained with Hanabi and received the reward [Bagua Empty Palm]."

Eight Trigrams Empty Palm: A unique long-range taijutsu derived from the Byakugan's abilities, using the palm to release a high-intensity, high-density chakra shockwave from a distance to attack targets at a distance.

Upon hearing the system notification, Neji's lips curled into a smile. This was a ranged attack technique.

This is enough to make up for his failure in long-range combat.

Next, it was his turn to fight Hinata.

I wonder what rewards I can get by training with Hinata?

"Hinata, nice to meet you." Neji said to Hinata in a low voice, forming the opposition hand seal.

Seeing Neji's serious gaze, Hinata took a deep breath and said earnestly, "Neji-nii-san, please guide me."

Hinata was very much looking forward to it at this moment. The Seal of Opposition is a way of showing respect for one's opponent.

Neji would never form a seal of opposition with him in the past.

"Neji-nii-san, I'm going to go!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Hinata appeared in front of Neji in a flash and raised her hand to strike him.

In the past, Hanabi might have been more powerful than Hinata.

However, after Hinata graduated, she followed Kurenai Yuhi and did many missions, and her combat experience and skills have long surpassed Hanabi's.

After all, in the original story, after being encouraged by Naruto, he was able to fight Neji to a standstill in a short period of time!

Seeing the fist coming straight at him, Neji remained calm and dodged it with a slight turn.

Hinata immediately turned around and threw a Gentle Fist at one of Neji's chakra points.

Neji slightly raised his hand and deflected Hinata's fist and palm, while at the same time grabbing at Hinata with his palm.

Hinata immediately retreated, forming hand seals: "Byakugan!"

"Gentle Fist!"

In the blink of an eye, Hinata's palm created many afterimages as she attacked Neji.

The response was good, but the attack methods were too simplistic.

Neji shook his head. Facing the incoming palm, Neji simply shifted his feet slightly and naturally dodged it.

At the same time, he grabbed Hinata's wrist with his other hand and subdued her in an instant.

"Hinata, you focus too much on striking pressure points, and your attacks are all in a straight line. Remember to adapt to different situations."

"Don't just focus on attacking pressure points. If you can't hit them, even the most powerful techniques are just for show," Neji said seriously.

"Furthermore, your personality is too weak, which limits your potential."

The Chunin Exams are a major event, and Hinata must have enough strength to protect herself.

"Yes! Neji-nii, please do it again," Hinata said earnestly.

This was the first time Neji had given her such careful guidance, and she was very happy.

Seeing Hinata get serious, Neji nodded with satisfaction. Hinata did have a certain heroic air about her when she was focused.
