Naruto: Starting With Tenseigan C134 (Patreon)

"Chapter 134: Konoha Tradition?

Hyuga Makoto was feeling quite helpless right now.

The death of the Fourth Raikage had nothing to do with him; one could even say it was something worth celebrating.

After all, Konoha and indeed the entire Ninja World shared a consensus on this.

"His death alone is greater than all the contributions he made to the Ninja World in his entire life!"

Konoha was indeed overjoyed, and Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't even manage basic facial expression control for a moment.

【Writing up to here, I hope readers remember our domain name, Taiwan Novel Website, accompanying you in your leisure, super thoughtful.】

However, Konoha still had many matters to deal with; after all, a whole bunch of people were searching for the Fourth Raikage's remains!

Regarding this matter, Hyuga Makoto was somewhat lacking in enthusiasm.

After all, the person was killed by him, and the corpse was even sold by him and Shisui.

As for the intelligence inside this Guy's brain?

He already knew everything he needed to know, let alone...

"I've already destroyed his brain, what use would getting his remains be?"

Yet he couldn't speak of this matter, and Hiruzen Sarutobi's gaze also fell upon him and Jiraiya.

Barring any accidents, this mission would most likely fall onto them.

This caused Hyuga Makoto to silently curse the people in the black market inwardly; they clearly wanted to make a quick buck too!

Furthermore, Hiruzen Sarutobi, being in high spirits, seemed determined to push Hyuga Makoto to the forefront.

Therefore, after some brief discussions, he proactively stated that he wanted to see Hyuga Makoto's new technique first.

"The development of a new technique cannot be done behind closed doors; perhaps I can offer some suggestions, and many people in the Village want to see the person who defeated the Raikage, as well as that legendary technique!"

Facing Hiruzen Sarutobi's words, although Hyuga Makoto found it somewhat troublesome, he ultimately did not refuse.

After all, this wasn't a bad thing for him; his main quest was right there!

Showing his face in front of some people within the Village didn't seem like a bad thing either.

Moreover, Hiruzen Sarutobi had restrictions on who was allowed to watch this time; they were basically Konoha Jonin, members of the Hyuga Clan, and some of his friends.

"Hey, kid, the barrier is set up, are you ready or not?"

However, just as he was pondering, Jiraiya couldn't help but chuckle.

"Having been my Disciple for so long, we've never sparred yet. Rest assured, I won't go too hard on you."

Hearing this, Hyuga Makoto almost rolled his eyes.

To prevent their battle from accidentally affecting others, there was naturally a barrier protecting the area.

Yet Jiraiya's words amused him somewhat.

"Pervy Sage, I'm actually more worried that I might accidentally beat you to death."

"Tch, stop boasting..."

Jiraiya curled his lip, though his gaze became much more serious.

He had naturally witnessed Hyuga Makoto's abilities and certainly understood this kid's terror.

Yet precisely because Hyuga Makoto was so incredible, he couldn't wait to try, disregarding the fact that his body had just recovered.

"Furthermore, the Great Toad Sage's judgment regarding the Child of Prophecy has been updated. I wonder if it could be this kid..."

Regarding matters of the "Man from the Heavens" and the "Otsutsuki", he hadn't had any opportunity to bring them up earlier.

After all, he himself had been stunned dumb by the death of the Raikage, let alone looking at Hiruzen Sarutobi's state—the Old Man probably wouldn't have the heart to process it even if he heard about it right now.

He planned to wait for the Old Man to calm down before having a proper chat with them.

After all, the Toad Sage's abnormal behavior worried him somewhat, but what he cared about even more was the "Child of Prophecy"!

"Let me see just how far you kid have grown."

As he spoke, he formed the seal of reconciliation, and Hyuga Makoto followed suit.

Hum—the moment they finished forming the hand seals, Hyuga Makoto flashed and rushed directly in front of Jiraiya!

"Such fast speed..."

Hyuga Makoto's sudden burst startled the surrounding Jonin.

Guy couldn't help crying out; they had all heard of Hyuga Makoto's name, but they had truly never witnessed his combat.

"Is this Lord Hyuga Makoto's true speed?"

Meanwhile, the people from the Hyuga side were relatively calm, having after all seen Hyuga Makoto make a move against the Main House.

Back then, they all knew Hyuga Makoto hadn't used his strength at all.

Now, facing Jiraiya, one of the Sannin, they felt Hyuga Makoto would probably get serious.

"Hey, you kid are going a bit too far..."

Facing such speed, Jiraiya was still handling it with ease. He effortlessly raised his hand to block the blow while muttering a quiet complaint.

"Don't you even know how to respect your teacher and revere the Dao? You should have waited for me to strike first."

As he spoke, Jiraiya's arm flicked smoothly, shedding the impact force while attempting to grab Hyuga Makoto's shoulder.

"You have the nerve to say that? Isn't a teacher supposed to go easy on their Disciple, or are you saying..."

However, Hyuga Makoto raised an eyebrow, slapped away Jiraiya's hand with a backhand, and couldn't help teasing him as he swung out with a palm strike.

"Pervy Sage, have you already concluded that you're no match for me?"

"You Guy..."

Jiraiya let out a light snort at those words, but now he grew even more serious.

Hyuga Makoto's Gentle Fist completely broke conventional patterns; every single move and stance was completely untraceable!

Even though he had some understanding of the Gentle Fist, facing Hyuga Makoto's attacks gave him a feeling of not knowing where to begin.

For a moment, Jiraiya could only keep retreating to defend, while Hyuga Makoto kept advancing and launching fierce attacks!

The speed of the two of them grew faster and faster, and their figures slowly began to blur.

Furthermore, air vortices were already swirling around them, and the resounding "bang, bang" noises echoed continuously within the training ground.

"So amazing!"

Guy's eyes lit up as he watched; this kind of taijutsu clash was always something he craved.

"Indeed impressive, and that kid Makoto's Chakra control is truly incredible."

Asuma, biting on a cigarette, couldn't help speaking up, and the rest of the Jonin nodded along.

They all had more or less understanding of the Gentle Fist, and naturally understood just how meticulous Hyuga Makoto's Chakra control was when doing this.

Such control capabilities were difficult for even medical Ninja and certain genjutsu Ninja to attain!

"What's so special about that? This level is just a warmup."

Kakashi, on the other hand, was burying his head in a book; hearing this, he merely raised his head to glance briefly before speaking indifferently.

"The things Makoto has mastered far exceed your imagination."

"Far exceed our imagination?"

The group of Jonin were somewhat curious, but Kakashi just shrugged and smiled without speaking further.

"So amazing..."

Naruto watched the speeding figures in the training ground, his eyes becoming somewhat dazed.

Hearing the news, he had naturally run over, and everything before his eyes made him feel it was unbelievable.

He knew Hyuga Makoto was very powerful; after all, every other day he would disappear to carry on missions, staying away for over a week each time.

Clearly, the missions carried out definitely wouldn't be simple.

But just how powerful he was, he had completely no concept of!

"You idiot, having been so close to him, don't you even understand that?"

Sasuke stood to the side with a soft snort; he wasn't particularly surprised by Hyuga Makoto's performance.

After all, he had witnessed with his own eyes how Hyuga Makoto defeated Uchiha Itachi!

Yet his eyes were filled with envy; he too craved such power.

"Hey, you bastard, talking as if you know him so well!"

Naruto felt somewhat displeased and glared at Sasuke, which caused Sasuke to raise an eyebrow.

"You two, quiet down."

But before Sasuke could speak, Uchiha Izumi shook her head and interrupted them.

"Senior Makoto has always been very powerful, and moreover, this is just a warmup for him. Just watch slowly."

"Huh?"

Naruto opened his mouth wide—this level was still just a warmup?

He incredulously glanced at the people around him, especially that bunch of Guys who possessed large Byakugan just like Hyuga Makoto.

He found that apart from fanaticism, these people seemed to have no other astonished expressions, which left him somewhat depressed.

"I've trained with this Guy for so long, how come I completely didn't know any of this..."

Naruto seemed somewhat troubled, but soon he heard the surrounding people let out bursts of exclamation.

He immediately turned his head to look, only to see that while blocking Jiraiya's offensive, Hyuga Makoto had actually sent Jiraiya flying with a single palm strike!

Meanwhile, Jiraiya leaped backward quickly along with Hyuga Makoto's palm wind, instantly putting a significant distance between them.

"You kid, you really strike hard."

Jiraiya rubbed his arm, complaining unhappily.

"If you're this ruthless to your teacher now, I wouldn't dare imagine how it'll be in the future!"

"Hey, don't go talking nonsense, Pervy Sage..."

Hearing this, the corners of Hyuga Makoto's mouth couldn't help twitching, because he suddenly remembered Konoha's "traditional arts".

When it came to "respecting teachers and revering the Dao," Konoha seemed to have mastered the "core advantage"?

"In that case, should I give Jiraiya a hand and sell them out in advance?"

Hyuga Makoto pondered inwardly, while Jiraiya chuckled at this moment.

"However, I've finally put some distance between us."

He quickly brought his hands together, Chakra surging within his body, and the next moment he pressed one hand onto the ground.

"Then the warmup is over; I'm going to get serious. Earth Release: Swamp of the Underworld!"

Hum—under the effect of his Chakra, the originally hard ground instantly turned into a patch of mire.

Hyuga Makoto was instantly trapped within it, yet this method also left him somewhat amused and exasperated.

"No wait, why are you also using this kind of tactic?"

"Didn't you say that a Ninja must use any and all means?"

Jiraiya didn't mind at all and immediately formed hand seals once more.

"Fire Release: Flame Bullet!"

Fire Release intertwined with oil refined from Chakra, and instantly a massive blaze swept toward Hyuga Makoto.

The warmup was already over, so Jiraiya naturally had to get a bit more serious. He was very clear on what the purpose of this bout was.

It was to let everyone take a good look at his Disciple!

And at the same time, to let this Disciple of his showcase his new technique.

This level of attack actually didn't amount to much; he still had a thorough understanding of Hyuga Makoto.

"That is..."

Sure enough, as the flames headed toward mid-air above Hyuga Makoto, amidst a chorus of gasps from the crowd, Hyuga Makoto moved instantly.

Black curse marks suddenly appeared on his body, spreading from his hands all the way to his face.

This curse mark carried an inexplicable aura of Chakra, seeming to blend into nature while also possessing a distinct terror!

"Rotation!"

Seeing this, Hyuga Makoto's Chakra stirred slightly, and in an instant, his body began to spin.

The power of Rotation instantly deflected these flames while continuously spreading outward in all directions.

Not only that, even the swamp beneath his feet was shattered and dispersed by his Rotation!

"Is this Rotation?"

Everyone present was somewhat dumbfounded—could Rotation be used this way too?

Moreover, Hyuga Makoto's Rotation seemed vastly different from what they remembered?

Yet they didn't have time to think further as Hyuga Makoto instantly dashed toward Jiraiya.

At this moment, his speed was clearly even faster and far more ferocious!

"Earth Release: Earth Style Wall!"

Seeing this, Jiraiya didn't hesitate to form hand seals once more, and a massive earthen wall instantly burst forth, blocking Hyuga Makoto's path.

Meanwhile, he quietly began preparing the Barrier: Canopy Formation; after all, he knew Hyuga Makoto could use the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Even though this kid didn't like throwing Kunai, the mere existence of this technique was an unknown terror.

Besides, after trading taijutsu blows with Hyuga Makoto just now, who knew if his body was already covered in "markers"!

"Eight Trigrams Mountain Crusher."

But before he could fully prepare, Hyuga Makoto had already broken through his defense.

That massive earthen wall was smashed to pieces by a single palm strike, and countless fragments of rock carrying an invisible shockwave swept toward the surroundings in an instant.

"Reinforce the barrier, quick!"

Seeing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi quickly gave the order; he knew absolutely no one wanted to leave right now.

Even he himself felt the same—he genuinely wanted to see just how far Hyuga Makoto could go!

"You kid..."

Jiraiya was also somewhat dazed by Hyuga Makoto's move; unable to prepare the "Canopy Formation" any further, he could only helplessly form hand seals once again.

"Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet!"

A berserk blaze instantly attacked Hyuga Makoto. This flame danced across the sky like a wandering dragon, completely blotting out the sky with no way to dodge.

Such flames made Hyuga Makoto pause his steps slightly, yet he had no intention of dodging whatsoever.

Looking at this overwhelming blaze, he pondered for a moment and then raised his right hand.

Hum—a bizarre power pulsed quietly at this moment, and the berserk flames instantly grew quiet.

Guided by that bizarre power, the flames began to spin at high speed.

They turned into a vortex, then continuously shrank and vanished. In the blink of an eye, the blaze was completely gone!

"What is this?!"

At this moment, the expressions of everyone watching changed drastically.

For the vast majority of them, it was their first time seeing such a scene.

Even Kakashi and Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had heard rumors beforehand, had expressions of disbelief at this moment.

Tsunade raised an eyebrow even further; although it wasn't her first time seeing it, she had always been pondering the principles behind it.

Furthermore, she had always wanted to find time to visit the Hyuga Clan and have a good chat with Hyuga Makoto.

Only...

"Damn Old Man, as soon as I get back there are so many troublesome things, simply hateful!"

Tsunade glared at Hiruzen Sarutobi beside her; it was this Old Man who kept her from having the time.

Yet she also had some doubts in her heart, because she remembered that the last time Hyuga Makoto used this move, his Yin Seal had already turned blue.

"Why is it still black this time? Could it be..."

That this kid has made progress again, or modified the Yin Seal once more?

"Pervy Sage, your attacks don't seem all that impressive."

Just as she was pondering, Hyuga Makoto looked at Jiraiya with a smile on his face.

He had already decided to sell people out, and he had also decided to respect "Konoha tradition".

"While battling you, I was even able to consider another matter."

"You kid..."

Jiraiya gathered his focus and Qi, but at this moment Hyuga Makoto's aura had abruptly changed.

In an instant, everyone felt their breath catch; it was as if they were being choked by some invisible force around their necks, feeling extremely uncomfortable!

"We went to four places: the Land of Fire, the Land of Rain, the Land of Rice Fields, and the Land of Hot Springs,"

Yet Hyuga Makoto acted as if nothing was wrong, his voice calm and filled with a hint of curiosity.

"Yet they accurately ambushed us, but setting up an ambush takes time."

"You mean..."

Jiraiya's brows knitted tightly, but the next instant he could no longer speak.

Hum—Hyuga Makoto had ferociously struck. Even across a distance, he could feel an irresistible force rushing toward his face!

"This is..."

Jiraiya murmured. His vision seemed enveloped in a patch of white light, and blistering power surged continuously.

"Oh no, reinforce the barrier further!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi and the other Jonin also changed expressions drastically, but the speed of all this was simply too fast.

The next instant, the inside of the barrier turned into a blinding white!

A violent roar erupted within the barrier, and the entire barrier constantly twisted and warped at this moment.

Crack—in a split second, the sturdy defensive barrier could no longer support itself; it shattered abruptly like glass!

A violent shockwave poured out, shaking everyone so hard they couldn't even lift their heads.

Right now their minds were somewhat dazed, not expecting—and right at this moment, Hyuga Makoto's voice appeared behind them.

"That's right, Pervy Sage, I suspect they were lurking in one of those places..."

"
