The Byakugan Princess of Konoha

The only ones who can pose a threat to Hinata are Gaara and Rock Lee.

Hinata suddenly became interested and said cheerfully, "Naruto, Sasuke! What do you think? Should we block the door here and snatch all the candidates' scrolls? Then only the three of us from Team 7 will pass the exam. That would be so impressive!"

Sasuke glanced at Hinata and said calmly, "What about those classmates? What are you planning to do with them?"

Hinata thought about it carefully and realized that Sasuke's words made some sense. If they were to steal the scrolls from the other Konoha members at this time, it would be detrimental to the Hyuga clan's diplomatic relations.

But asking them to pay tolls... that's too vulgar.

Hinata thought for a moment, then beckoned to Naruto and Sasuke and whispered, "Then let them treat us to a meal. They have to treat Team 7 to a month's worth of meals before we can pass this test."

Sasuke turned his head away, not wanting to talk to Hinata, but Naruto said excitedly, "Hinata, you're so smart."

Hinata looked at Naruto with a 'you're teachable' expression and said with a smile, "Right! Kiba's group, Shikamaru's group, and my brother Neji's group, each of them treated us to meals for a month, that's three months!"

"Not only can we have a big meal every day, but we can also save a lot of money."

Naruto, who was terrified of poverty, nodded vigorously, indicating that he completely agreed with Hinata's opinion.

Hinata glanced at Sasuke and said calmly, "Sasuke, it's two to one now."

Sasuke: You two idiots!

Somewhere in the Death Forest.

"Sand-bound coffin...sand explosion funeral procession!"

Gaara clenched his right fist and squeezed it hard, instantly turning three Amegakure ninjas into flesh and blood with sand, and blood rained down from the sky.

Gaara stands silently amidst the blood-soaked rain, holding an umbrella in one hand.

Kankuro picked up the scroll from the Rain Ninja and laughed, "It's the Book of Heaven, what a coincidence."

"Alright, let's go to the tower!"

Gaara coldly said, "Shut up!"

Gaara glanced at the hiding place of Kiba, Shino, and Sakura, and was about to say something when he suddenly turned his head to look in the direction of the tower.

"What exactly does this feeling mean?"

Chapter Sixty-Six: The Poor Little Panda

"Blind eyes!"

Hinata activated her Byakugan, put her right hand behind her back to signal to Naruto and Sasuke, and whispered, "Go and ambush them. When they arrive, give them a good beating."

Naruto confidently declared, "Alright! Hinata, don't worry!"

Hinata, without turning her head, said, "Naruto, forget it. You don't know any ninjutsu anyway. After Sasuke and I unleash our ultimate attacks, you can just create a bunch of shadow clones and gang up on them!"

Within Byakugan's field of vision, Gaara and his two companions leaped and bounded through the trees, hurtling toward the central tower at an incredible speed.

Hinata, Naruto, and Sasuke hid themselves well. Hinata clenched her fists tightly, waiting for Gaara and the others to arrive so she could throw a bomb in their faces.

However, considering that Gaara will eventually become the Fifth Kazekage of Sunagakure, and that he saved Rock Lee when chasing Sasuke, and that he risked his life to protect Naruto in the future, there's no need to kill them now.

"Okay! Then let's use bare hands!"

Hinata has already set up an ambush, and Gaara's trio is almost at the tower.

Gaara led the way, remaining silent the entire time, while Temari and Kankuro followed behind, trembling with fear.

Ever since he stopped Gaara from harming Shino, Kiba, and Sakura, Gaara's emotions have been extremely violent, and he exudes a faint but palpable killing intent.

With the central tower now in sight, Temari and Kankuro both breathed a sigh of relief.

At least I don't have to be with that monster Gaara anymore.

'Whoosh! Whoosh!'

Two barely perceptible whooshing sounds rang out.

Gaara and his two companions stopped and looked up. The dazzling sunset made the two figures in the air appear somewhat dim, but they could still make out that the girl was the one who had beaten Kankuro to the point of hospitalization seven days ago.

"Fire Release: Great Fire Dragon Technique!"

"Twenty Divine Void Strike!"

As soon as Gaara and his two companions entered the ambush site, Hinata signaled for the attack to begin.

Sasuke unleashed the strongest Fire Release technique he could currently master, while Hinata started with her trump card, launching an attack with her empty palm technique.

The two men, one on the left and one on the right, surrounded Gaara and his two companions from both sides.

A large amount of sand poured out of the gourd on Gaara's back, protecting him just before the attack hit.

Given Gaara's current state of mind, he wouldn't care whether Temari and Kankuro lived or died.

As the crisis loomed, Temari instantly activated her Three-Star Fan to protect herself, and shouted in a low voice, "Ninja Art - Kamaitachi!"

A battle between gale and flame.

Temari was caught off guard and unable to use her ultimate move for the time being. With Kamaitachi against the Great Fire Dragon Technique, Temari was undoubtedly at a disadvantage.

A scorching wave of air rushed towards her, and Temari leaped up to try and avoid it. Before she could even get into the air, she felt a tremendous force strike her chest.

The pure chakra, flowing through acupoints and meridians, continuously damaged Temari's internal organs.

Is this... Gentle Fist?

Temari has seen this move before; the last time Kankuro was severely injured by Hinata using this move.

"puff--"

Temari coughed up blood and flew backward. At that moment, she had only one thought in her mind: What sins have I committed? Do I look so easy to bully? Why do they have to use Fire Release and Empty Palm to hit me?

'boom! '

Temari slammed her entire body against the tree, feeling excruciating pain in her chest, coughing up blood uncontrollably, and experiencing a wave of dizziness.

Before losing consciousness, Temari saw that Kankuro had also been knocked away, and his condition was even worse than hers. He was flying in the air, spitting blood continuously, and before he even hit a tree, he had already lost consciousness.

Before losing consciousness, Temari felt a slight sense of relief: "At least there's someone worse off than me, at least I'm not the only one who got it. And... what am I even happy about?"

How about delivering ten empty palm strikes in a single move?

"call!"

Hinata leaped onto the tree and glanced down at the situation below.

Temari and Kankuro were already dead, and Gaara was heavily protected by sand, his gaze coldly meeting Hinata's.

"A perfect sneak attack!"

Hinata thought to herself, "Fortunately, Gaara doesn't have a sense of teamwork at this time, and he doesn't value his comrades enough. If he had protected Temari and Kankuro together, today would have been a really tough battle."

As Hinata was thinking, she suddenly felt the sky darken and a huge swarm of Narutos descended from the sky, pouring towards Gaara like garbage being dumped.

This idiot...

'Bang! Bang! Bang...'

As expected, Gaara didn't move an inch, or even glance at Naruto. A large amount of sand turned into small sand balls and rained down on Naruto like a storm. Naruto's numerous shadow clones instantly turned into smoke.

"Chance!"

Hinata's eyes lit up. Gaara launched an attack on Naruto, which meant that the sand around him would inevitably decrease.

Without a second thought, Hinata leaped down from the tree and rushed toward Gaara.

Gaara's eyes followed Hinata's figure as the sand waves surged towards her like a vast ocean.

Hinata's figure darted about, her light body dancing like a butterfly amidst the sand waves. Though seemingly slow, she always managed to dodge Gaara's sand wave attacks in time, and the distance between the two was closing.

Sasuke stood on a tree branch, his eyes fixed on Hinata's battle with Gaara, his fists clenched, filled with resentment.

He couldn't get involved in this battle.

The sandstorm was even faster than Sasuke. If Sasuke went down to fight now, he would only be a hindrance to Hinata.

Sasuke couldn't accept this at all; he wasn't even qualified to participate in a battle among his peers.

Gritting his teeth, Sasuke's expression was ferocious and ugly.

Looking at Hinata fighting below, facing Gaara's relentless attacks, Hinata's face was surprisingly relaxed, as if she wasn't using her full strength at all.

What Sasuke didn't know was that some people seem to have it easy on the surface, but in reality... they have it even easier behind the scenes.

When Hinata was about two meters away from Gaara, she moved her feet and increased her speed even further. She moved at a speed that was almost impossible to see with the naked eye, dodging all the sand waves in an instant and appearing in front of Gaara.

Amid Gaara's incredulous expression, Hinata clenched her right fist, gathering a deep blue chakra within it, and struck Gaara hard in the chest.

Hinata didn't know if Gaara had the Sand Armor. If he did, it would be difficult for her Gentle Fist alone to hurt him.

The Twenty Gods' Void Strike not only has the effect of attacking internal organs with a soft fist, but also the effect of causing physical damage with a steel fist, making it extremely destructive.

'boom! '

Gaara's figure flew backward at great speed, leaving a trail of afterimages in the air, and almost instantly crashed into the tree behind him, smashing the trunk into pieces.

"Naruto!"

Hinata shouted.

Now that Gaara is outside the protection of the sand, using a large number of shadow clones to deal melee damage is the most cost-effective way to deal with him.

Naruto had been waiting for a long time, and another large group of shadow clones descended from the sky, pouring towards Gaara's direction.

"Return to Heaven!"

Hinata's movement was much faster than Gaara's sand. She positioned herself between the sand and Gaara, spinning rapidly and using the Rotation Technique to deflect all the sand, creating an opportunity for Naruto to engage in close combat.

Chapter 67 Hinata: This Mountain Is Mine

'Bang! Bang! Bang... Clang! Clang...'

Hinata used her "Rotation" technique to deflect the sand that was returning to Gaara's aid. As soon as the spinning stopped, she saw hundreds of Narutos surrounding Gaara and giving him a good beating.

The scene was absolutely horrific.
