In Konoha, Naruto lies down

"This old man..." The Nine-Tailed Fox was speechless for a moment and didn't want to pay any more attention to Naruto.

"Since this is possible, why don't you become a cute beast-eared fox girl?" Naruto was full of curiosity and proposed a path that the Nine-Tailed Fox had never imagined.

“Hurry—!!!! Get out!”

"Oh my god! The Nine-Tailed Fox is too fierce!" Naruto opened his eyes from the cool, mossy stone steps, sat up suddenly and said angrily, "I'm just simply curious. If it doesn't want to change, I don't want to see it!"

"Pooh!"

With a slight sigh of regret, Naruto stood up and looked towards the central tower.

I decided to go in and take a look. Even though I wasn't participating, I was still a little worried. This additional exam seemed to be a 1v1 combat selection, and the opponent selection wasn't random, but completely opaque and shady.

But since I have already withdrawn, those stupid executives shouldn't put Hinata and Neji together, right?

A contest between a genius from the Hyuga branch family and a girl from the main family? Wouldn't that be a one-sided fight?

Worried, Naruto hesitated for a moment before deciding to go in and take a look. If things weren't going well, he should have just told Hinata to surrender. There was no point in persisting in this pure, stupid game of getting beaten.

With such a feeling, Naruto turned around and took a step when the mechanical synthesized voice in his mind sounded again.

"Ding!"

A panel pops up, displaying two options.

[Option 20: Use the Heart Transformation Technique (the system temporarily provides perfect compatibility) to take over Hinata's body and force her to surrender. Reward: Exploding Talisman x.]

[Option 2: Use the Heart Transformation Technique (the system temporarily provides perfect compatibility) to take over Hinata's body and control her to defeat Neji. Reward: Kusanagi Sword]

After looking at the options, Naruto complained subconsciously.

"How can we possibly win?"

"Choose one, choose one decisively."

As soon as he finished speaking, Naruto fell to the ground as if his soul had been sucked out, and fell into a deep sleep. After all, there was still a Nine-Tails living in his body, so he was not worried about who would dare to pick up his body.

In the central tower, Hinata, who was chosen to fight against Hyuga Neji, was a little nervous.

She stood aside nervously, her palms clenched with sweat.

The duel in the arena was between Inuzuka Kiba and Chouji, and the winner was about to be decided. The next match would be between her and Neji. Hinata was more afraid of her cold cousin.

But she didn't want to give up and still wanted to fight with all her might and dignity.

Suddenly, Hinata felt her body was out of control. The moment her pupils dilated, an unprecedented strange feeling spread throughout her body.

“Oops…body…!”

"what......"

Shino, who was standing by, noticed Hinata's abnormality and turned around to ask.

"what happened to you?"

"I'm fine." Hinata looked up, and Naruto's soul shadow just overlapped with her completely.

In Hinata's mind, in the area of ​​communication that only the two of them could hear.

"Naruto-kun? What's wrong with you...?" Hinata asked in panic. She felt that she had lost control of her body, only her eyes and brain could move.

"Don't be nervous, Hinata." Naruto comforted her gently, "This is a mental ninjutsu. I will take over your body for the time being."

"Take over...the body?" Hinata was stunned for a moment, then realized something and cried out, "You hooligan! You are not allowed to..."

That's right, this perfectly matched mind-transfer technique is a hundred times more sophisticated than the one Ino used. Naruto can not only perfectly control Hinata's body, but also share her consciousness, although there are inevitably some minor flaws.

"Um...Hinata, relax." Naruto said with a wry smile.

"Naruto-kun is a hooligan!" Hinata hugged herself tightly in her consciousness space and squatted down suddenly.

However, this was of no use, and it was still Naruto who was controlling Hinata's body.

"I'm sorry." Naruto said apologetically, "Please believe me, Hinata, I won't hurt you."

"If you were to fight the rest of the battle alone, you would definitely get hurt. I just don't want you to get hurt, so I had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure!"

Hearing this, Hinata calmed down a little. She looked up at Naruto and asked a little embarrassedly.

"Naruto-kun...are you really doing that because you're worried about me?"

"Of course!" Naruto said, "I'm definitely worried about you, so Hinata, please don't be angry, okay?"

"I...I'm not mad at Naruto-kun," Hinata said meekly, blushing.

"Don't worry, I will use your body well! I won't do anything rash!" Naruto promised seriously, "After this exam is over, how about I treat you to barbecue, Hinata?"

"Okay." Hinata nodded gently, her face as red as a tomato.

"Naruto-kun." Hinata spoke again.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"I know I'm no match for Neji-nii, and I can... guess what Naruto-kun is going to do. You want to give up the competition on my behalf, right?"

Naruto was silent.

"I know giving up is the best option, but... Naruto-kun, I also want to... practice my own ninja way." Hinata whispered, "Occasionally I also want to prove that I'm not... someone who will fail at everything I do."

"I chose the path of being a ninja myself, and I had a lot of fun training with everyone, so I really cherish this job as a ninja."

"So...so I was thinking, if my thoughts would embarrass Naruto-kun, could you please return your body to me?"

"Even if...even if I get hurt, I still want to give it a try."

While Naruto was silent, the battle off the field had already come to an end, and Inuzuka Kiba defeated Choji and won.

Moonlight Gale glanced at the stands, and that lazy and weak voice rang out in the stadium.

"Next match, Hyuga Neji vs. Hyuga Hinata!"

Seeing Hinata about to go on stage, Naruto took a deep breath and said.

"No."

"Huh?" Hinata was confused, "But..."

"I'll fight for you." Naruto interrupted Hinata and said, "I'm already here, don't worry Hinata, I will do my best."

As he spoke, Naruto controlled Hinata's body and slowly walked towards the field.

Chapter 55 Fighting

After the two of them stood in the middle of the field, Neji opposite them had a cold expression.

Naruto began to regret the complaints he had made about Hinata using the Ninja God Puppet. After exacerbating the conflicts within Hinata, now the cause and effect had returned to his hands.

Damn, it’s cause and effect, right?

Naruto looked nervously at Neji opposite him. The other's face was so gloomy that water could drip out of it, which made Naruto shiver.

Fortunately, I chose to help Hinata, otherwise Hinata would have been killed by me for no reason.

The guy opposite is really scary after turning evil. It looks like he will definitely use heavy force!

"Miss Hinata, I didn't expect to fight with you." Neji said to Hinata.

At this time, it was Naruto who controlled Hinata's body. He could talk to Hinata in the consciousness space while controlling Hinata's body to talk. At the same time, Hinata in the consciousness space could naturally perceive all the sounds outside.

"Brother Neji..." Hinata in the consciousness space was obviously in a low mood.

Naruto didn't care about that. The right and wrong were already obvious. The Hyuga clan was not a human being.

But for now, we have to save Hinata first, and then we can slowly deal with the other things.

"Yeah, I didn't expect that either." Naruto really couldn't call Neji "Brother", so he could only respond reluctantly.

At the same time, Naruto controlled Hinata's body and took a half step back, which was his usual starting move in battle. This was definitely a high-level game, and he didn't know much about the Hyuga clan's ninjutsu, so he could only understand it on his own.

While fighting, you also have to pay attention to the blue bar to avoid running out of chakra.

The chief examiner, Moonlight Gale, stood aside, glanced at the two of them, and said listlessly.

"Well, then, please let the competition begin."

Neji took a half step to the right and started. He looked at Hinata with a serious expression and spoke.

"Before the match begins, I want to give Miss Hinata a piece of advice. Give up. You are not fit to be a ninja."

"You are too weak. You don't have your own opinions, and you don't know how to say no to others. You are too gentle to everyone, which is why you are bullied everywhere. Ninjas are killing machines. People who are too kind cannot be ninjas. They will only hurt others and themselves!"

"I know." Naruto, who was using Hinata's body, said, "Giving up is impossible. There is always something in life that we need to hold on to."

"Miss Hinata, you're a little different than before," Neji said coldly. "You used to be used to running away. I don't know why you insisted on doing that, but that doesn't change your fate of failure."

"My eyes can see clearly your past failures, and your true nature will soon be exposed."

Facing Neji's psychological offensive, Hinata was almost withdrawn. Even though Hinata didn't speak, Naruto could feel the panic and anxiety in her body.

within the space of consciousness.

"Aren't you the main family?" Naruto asked

"Yeah." Hinata hummed.

"The main family has absolute control over the branch family." Naruto said, "Why should we be afraid of him?"

"I...I don't want to fight with Brother Neji." Hinata said hesitantly, "The relationship between the main family and the branch family has always been bad. Brother Neji was not like this when he was a child, it's just...just..."

"But the affairs of the main family are not something you can decide, right? Unless you become the clan leader." Naruto said, "Ningji hates you because he thinks that since you are a member of the main family, you have vested interests, so why do you two have conflicts? It doesn't make sense."

"I...I don't know." Hinata said.

"Big families are really troublesome."

After saying that, Naruto stopped talking to Hinata and locked his eyes on Hyuga Neji who had opened his Byakugan.

In an instant, Naruto changed his palm into a fist and opened his eyes.

Neji on the opposite side was a little surprised when he saw Hinata opened her Byakugan without forming any hand seals just like him.

Sakura suddenly asked from the viewing platform above.

"Um, why does Neji look so surprised? Did Hinata do something?"

Hearing this, Xiao Li on the side interrupted.

"It took Neji a long time to be able to open his Byakugan without forming any hand seals. Perhaps he felt that Hinata's ability exceeded his expectations."

The battle has begun and the two men have already started fighting.

Naruto controlled Hinata's body, and his fighting power was greatly weakened.

Just like Orochimaru's Reincarnation, his abilities are tied to the soul, not the body. However, within Hinata's body, Naruto will be limited by her chakra and stamina. Furthermore, the two's physical strength is incomparable; their upper limits are clear.

Naruto didn't know what his maximum speed was. His body, infused with the Nine-Tails' chakra, became active as if he had taken stimulants.

But in Hinata's body, Naruto could sense a limit, a physical limit. He was certain that if he exceeded that limit, his muscles might tear or suffer more serious injuries.

Neji raised his palm and took advantage of the momentum. His whole body was like the sharpest spear, so fast that it seemed like a sudden flash of silver light.

Naruto didn't use his palm to catch it, but just slightly turned sideways, instantly creating some distance.

The Hyuga clan's physical skills specifically allow chakra to attach to the palms. Even if they don't touch the enemy's body, they can still use the passing chakra to attack the enemy's internal organs.

The moment they closed the gap, Neji stepped forward and gave chase.

Naruto took advantage of the situation to dodge the palm strike and kicked forward, hitting a pressure point on Neji's arm.

Neji, sensing his rhythm was disrupted, cautiously retreated. This gave Naruto an opportunity to pull back and strike him in the face. Simultaneously, his waist twisted like a knob, and as Neji dodged and thrust forward to strike back, Naruto, using the momentum from his twisting waist, flipped over and delivered a back-slam.

Neji blocked the palm and hammer with his hands, and his soft fist used a clever force to neutralize the force with force.

Naruto's strength was his. Whether he was retreating or attacking with a single step, his moves were always continuous and fast! While Neji was blocking his way, Naruto had already raised his leg and swept across.

Ningji's lower body is steady, and his palms are like knives and swords.

Naruto didn't struggle with Neci in terms of palm techniques. Besides the fact that they were taught by a master who couldn't break through, Hinata's understanding of Baguazhang wasn't as good as Neci's. Naruto himself was just learning it on the spur of the moment, so it's impossible for him to be better than Neci in Baguazhang.

The battle is about playing to one's strengths and avoiding one's weaknesses. Naruto controls Hinata's body and moves flexibly, like a nimble cat on the field.

He kept making offensive moves, interspersed with a lot of feints. Even if Neji had his Byakugan, it would be hard for his brain to keep up with the hard-to-defend feints. These moves were not usually used by Naruto, but he just couldn't force them out right now.

Neji was obviously annoyed, and with a roar, he immediately started the Eight Trigrams Thirty-two Palms.
