The Byakugan Princess of Konoha

Defeating Uchiha Itachi was a task that Hyuga Hiashi gave to Hinata when she was five years old.

Hinata agreed without really understanding what was going on.

According to official data, Itachi Uchiha's 'spirit' stat is actually lower than Kakashi's.

Lost in thought, the match off the field had already been decided.

Naruto Uzumaki defeated Kiba Inuzuka for the second time, winning the match.

In this way, Hinata and Naruto from Team 7 can both advance to the third exam.

Sasuke is under a lot of pressure.

Naruto trotted up to Sasuke, beaming with pride, and said, "Sasuke, Hinata and I have both advanced successfully. Don't embarrass Team 7! I really want to spar with you!"

Sasuke snorted and turned his head away, but his eyes remained fixed on the screen hanging on the wall.

Having witnessed Gaara's strength, Sasuke knew that there were several monsters in this match that he couldn't defeat in his current state.

Furthermore, Hinata's cousin is also a source of concern.

The names on the screen flashed back and forth before finally stopping.

"Hyuga Neji VS Aburame Shino!"

Hinata walked over to Neji and whispered a reminder, "Neji-nii-san, be careful!"

Neji hadn't cared much at first, but after hearing Hinata's words, his heart grew heavy.

Could this guy named Shino Aburame be very strong?

Chapter 75 What goes around comes around

Shino Aburame's undefeated reputation is no exaggeration.

In terms of raw strength, Shino was still quite a distance behind Neji at this point.

Although Shino's family secret technique was strange and troublesome, Neji's Byakugan was no joke either.

Shino's ninjutsu and tactics were almost completely exposed under Neji's Byakugan.

Even at such a disadvantage, Shino still managed to hold his own against Neji for nearly five minutes before finally being defeated.

Five minutes may seem short, but in ninja battles, especially among genin, five minutes can feel like a long time.

Many people felt sorry for Shino. If Shino had been able to advance to the third exam, becoming a Chunin would have been a certainty.

He was still a bit unlucky. In the original story, Shino advanced smoothly, but didn't get a chance to play in the next match.

Neji still had his long, flowing hair and an air of refined composure. He appeared calm and collected, but his chakra was already more than half depleted.

At this point, Kurenai's group was completely wiped out.

The game continues.

Ino vs. Temari, Shikamaru vs. Tenten, Sasuke vs. Kankuro...

Including the previous three matches, only Choji, Lee, Gaara, and Toshi have not yet played.

Hinata, Naruto, Neji, Temari, and Shikamaru have all successfully advanced to the third exam.

Sasuke and Kankuro were still locked in a fierce battle, but Choji was already frantic with worry.

Of the remaining four, apart from Choji, none of them were pushovers.

In the previous round of the competition, the candidates had a general idea of ​​each other's strength. Gaara, Lee, and Toshi were all easy opponents.

The important thing is that Choji is hungry.

Shikamaru, that mischievous friend, put his arm around Choji's shoulder and grinned wickedly, "Choji, you're in big trouble now!"

Asuma lamented, "Yes! The rest are all experts, what are we going to do!"

Choji, sweating profusely, said hesitantly, "It's okay, I'll give up the match immediately."

Asuma said with a lewd grin, "So, the all-you-can-eat barbecue after the exam is canceled too..."

Shikamaru retorted, "Asuma, don't try to lure him with food, okay!"

"That guy from Sunagakure... his eyes are terrifying, he's clearly not normal. Apart from Hinata, he's the most dangerous one here."

In the first round of the competition, Hinata and Gaara were the most ruthless, one tearing their opponent's body apart and the other crushing their opponent into mincemeat.

Upon hearing this, Dingci's eyes lit up, and he roared, "That's right! I still have my boss!"

Ino asked, somewhat puzzled, "Huh? Boss?"

Seeing Choji rushing to her side, Hinata asked in surprise, "Choji, is something the matter?"

Choji stared intently at Hinata and said aggressively, "Boss, do you remember when you said you'd take me as your little brother?"

Hinata recalled carefully that when she was in school, she did indeed take Choji as her underling in order to trick him into giving her potato chips.

Hinata nodded and said, "Yes! Of course I remember. The leader must be loyal."

Ding Ci said dejectedly, "Boss, of the four people left, everyone except me is very strong. What should I do?"

Hinata said in surprise, "I didn't expect you to be so self-aware!"

Choji became even more frustrated upon hearing this.

Hinata patted the chubby boy and comforted him, "If you can't beat him, just admit defeat."

Choji said dejectedly, "But if I give up, Asuma-sensei won't treat me to barbecue... Boss, it's all-you-can-eat barbecue!"

Hinata's eyes lit up.

To be honest, after the qualifiers have gone on for so long, I'm definitely a bit hungry.

Can I join?

Ding Ci was overjoyed upon hearing this and said, "Boss, does that mean you're willing to help me?"

Hinata sighed inwardly, lamenting how the world had gone to such depravity and how people's hearts had lost their former virtues.

Even a simple, kind-hearted (and naive) kid like Choji has learned to negotiate.

Hearing Choji call out "Boss, Boss" over and over again, looking conflicted, Hinata felt a pang of sadness. After all, Choji was her childhood friend!

It's time to pay back the potato chips I tricked from that chubby kid back in school.

With that thought in mind, Hinata made a decision.

Hinata cleared her throat, glanced around, and shouted, "All Konoha ninjas, come here! Jonin-sensei, come here too, just to give me, Hinata Hyuga, some face."

The genin dared not disobey, and the jonin teacher, upon hearing this, also curiously came over, wanting to see what kind of trick Hinata had up her sleeve to help Choji pass the preliminary rounds smoothly.

"Cough cough!"

Hinata took out all the kunai and explosive tags from her ninja tool bag and wrapped the explosive tags around the handles of the kunai.

Hinata gestured to everyone and explained, "Everyone, take out your kunai and explosive tags and make them like mine. I'll give Choji about a hundred of them later."

"Choji, no matter who your opponent is, go up and blow them up with explosive tags. Once you've used up all the explosive tags, if they're still alive, immediately admit defeat!"

"..."

Everyone around was stunned. Was there really such a move?

Hinata scoffed, "A bunch of country bumpkins who've never seen the world. Do you know how many explosive tags Nan-nee used when she fought Uchiha Obito?"

That's a whopping six hundred billion explosive tags!

Most importantly, Sister Nan claimed that she had rehearsed countless times before...

Listen carefully, this has been rehearsed countless times!

Seeing that no one moved, Hinata was annoyed and said, "What are you all standing there for? Let's all help Choji!"

"No matter what, we're all Konoha ninjas, and we'll be seeing each other all the time. Please give Hinata Hyuga some face and help my little sister this time!"

Shikamaru was the first to take out his ninja tools, and the genin contributed a little each, quickly gathering more than a hundred explosive tags.

Those veteran genin (lower-ranking ninja) preferred to use explosive tags, which were not only powerful but also didn't require much chakra.

Out of respect for Hinata, almost all the genin contributed their stockpiles.

Looking at all those explosive tags, Hinata couldn't help but feel a little smug: "Looks like my connections do have some use! I've decided, in this game called 'Naruto,' I'm going to beat it all by using my connections!"

I really am the cutest!

Hinata glanced at the Jonin teachers and scoffed, "And you guys?"

Asuma laughed and said, "I'm Choji's teacher, so I'll provide some for Choji!"

After all, there's still Rock Lee on Konoha's side. It's one thing for the genin to mess around, but the jonin are too embarrassed to get involved in such things.

Asuma, the most powerful second-generation official in Konoha, was quite wealthy and provided Choji with more than twenty explosive tags.

Hinata calculated that if she tied all the explosive tags to the kunai, she could make about 126 kunai bombs.

Hinata patted Choji on the shoulder and encouraged him, "Choji, this is all the help I can give you. You'll have to walk your own path from here on out. Since we're not strong enough, let's show our opponents our wealth and bury them in money!"

Ding Ci, with tears in his eyes, said gratefully, "Thank you so much, Boss! You're so good to me!"

With these kunai bombs, Choji can fight the other two of the remaining three, except for Gaara.

Chapter 76 Konoha Genin Team Up to Oust Sand Ninja

Off the field, Sasuke and Kankuro's battle was extremely intense.

Kankuro is a puppeteer, and puppeteers are known for their stealthy and unpredictable attacks. Coupled with deadly poisons, even a slight scratch from a hidden weapon could be fatal.

However, Sasuke possesses the name 'Uchiha' and his Sharingan with two tomoe is enough to see through the puppeteer's hidden weapon attacks.

However, even if one's eyesight is good enough to see through an opponent, it doesn't mean that one's judgment and physical reaction can keep up with the opponent's attack speed and frequency.

Sasuke's fight was still difficult.

To maximize the effectiveness of the Sharingan, one must be able to make a quick judgment and respond the instant one sees through the opponent's attack.
