Hinata: I Have a Feeling Something Big Is About to Happen

"Let's begin our training!"

"Hehehe..."

Hinata, Kakashi, and Naruto stood in a triangle formation at a training ground on the Back Mountain of Konoha.

Seeing Naruto grinning foolishly, Kakashi rolled his deadpan eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"

Naruto scratched his head and said, "No, it's nothing! It's just that I haven't trained with Teacher Kakashi and Hinata in a long time, and I'm inexplicably excited."

Kakashi retorted, "Haha, you can only laugh now."

Naruto: "..."

"Because time waits for no one!" Kakashi said seriously.

"Akatsuki has already begun its operation, and the Nine-Tails within you is precisely their target."

After a pause, Kakashi continued, "The purpose of this training is to master your own unique and strongest Ninjutsu that surpasses the Rasengan."

Kakashi taught Naruto two techniques of Chakra: 'Shape Transformation' and 'Nature Transformation'.

"If you want to master Ninjutsu that surpasses the Rasengan, you must master the technique of 'Nature Transformation'."

Hinata listened listlessly from the side.

Hinata had already learned almost all the uses of Chakra from Orochimaru. Although Gentle Fist directly uses Chakra, in order to master the stronger Yin-Yang Release, Hinata also needs to master the Chakra Nature Transformation with both Yin and Yang attributes.

Thanks to her innate talent and her research into the Tenseigan's eye techniques, Hinata has almost mastered the nature of Yin-Yang Release.

Kakashi rambled on and on, first explaining the wonders of Shadow Clone to Naruto, and then testing Naruto's Chakra attributes with Chakra Paper.

Immediately afterwards...

The first step in training wind-style Chakra Nature Transformation is to use Chakra to cut leaves.

Hinata watched helplessly as Naruto's Shadow Clone plucked all the leaves from a large, leafy tree, and then a thousand Naruto each held a leaf and strained with all their might, their expressions like those of someone constipated.

What a pitiful tree!

Hinata and Kakashi, having some free time, went to the side to drink tea and read books, occasionally chatting to relieve their boredom.

Hinata clapped her hands to brush away the pastry crumbs and looked at Kakashi, asking, "Teacher Kakashi, how's your training going lately? Could it be that the three of us have really surpassed you?"

"Haha... How could that be?"

Kakashi chuckled and said, "You guys are still far behind me."

Hinata rolled her eyes. "Such a stubborn pride."

Meanwhile, at one of Orochimaru's secret bases.

Hinata's true form sat leisurely on the sofa, Hinata personal chef Orochimaru, brought Hinata a carefully prepared fruit juice drink.

"Orochimaru, your cooking skills are getting better and better! Don't you really want to open a restaurant? If you do, I'll definitely be a customer Tenten!"

Hinata spoke from the heart.

Orochimaru is a very meticulous person. Even if mixing fruit juice was not his original intention, once he started, Orochimaru would do his best.

As far as Hinata knew, the experimental data on making fruit juice alone filled three whole scrolls.

Orochimaru's face darkened. If he could defeat Hinata, he was certain Hinata Orochimaru would be three feet old by now.

Sasuke is almost here!

After finishing her juice, Hinata stood up and said, "Let's go check on Urashiki!"

Orochimaru was eager to hear this.

He has been studying Urashiki's corpse for ten months, but Orochimaru can only obtain Urashiki's Chakra through cell transplantation. He is very curious about what method Hinata will use to help Sasuke obtain Urashiki's power.

Orochimaru also had a vague suspicion that Sasuke's inexplicable surge in strength might also be related to Urashiki.

'Click!'

The secret laboratory's mechanical door slowly opened, Hinata curiously peeked inside before turning away, her face flushed.

"Orochimaru, you're shameless!"

Urashiki's body was preserved in a container by Orochimaru, but that's not the point. The point is that Urashiki was naked...

Hinata didn't know why she suddenly felt shy. She should have been used to this kind of thing in her previous life, right?

It's probably a physiological reaction!

Orochimaru glanced at Hinata and gave a disdainful sneer.

Having conducted human experiments for many years, Orochimaru claims that he has seen all kinds of bodies.

This may be the main reason why Orochimaru is not interested in women; no matter how beautiful a woman is, she is nothing more than a pile of experimental data in Orochimaru's eyes.

"Urashiki has a strong vitality, so he shouldn't need to be soaked in medicine, right?" Hinata asked curiously.

Orochimaru nodded slightly.

"That being said, Urashiki's vitality is slowly fading. Experimental materials like this should certainly be preserved for as long as possible."

As he spoke, Orochimaru had already taken Urashiki out of the container.

Orochimaru placed Urashiki on the testing table and considerately covered Urashiki's private parts with a white cloth. Then he said to Hinata, "Alright, you can come over now!"

Hinata walked to the experimental table, Orochimaru, still looking shocked, said, "No matter how many times I've seen it, this kind of life will always seem incredible."

Orochimaru reached out and ran his hand across Urashiki's body. The sharp Chakra pierced Urashiki's skin and flesh, but Urashiki's body healed naturally in just a moment, without leaving a single scar.

"A body full of life, but it has been dead for a long time."

Orochimaru speculated, "Hinata, do you think that if this body continues to maintain its vitality, over time it might give birth to a new self?"

"I don't think so..." Hinata, somewhat uncertainly.

Orochimaru's face showed great interest. "To be honest, I really want to be reincarnated into this body... but I have a vague feeling that if I do that, I might cease to exist."

Hinata frowned slightly. Was Urashiki still not completely dead?

That shouldn't be happening!

Hinata was certain that she had indeed killed Urashiki back then.

"Could it be..."

Orochimaru suddenly turned to look at Hinata and asked excitedly, "What did you think of?"

Hinata paused for a moment, as if she had something to worry about, then shook her head and said, "I can't tell you yet."

The Urashiki in front of us is Urashiki from another world, while there should be another Urashiki in the world Hinata lives in.

The power of these two Urashiki is from the same source.

Since they share the same origin, will Urashiki of this world be able to sense this body?

Or perhaps it is the same will that stimulates this body to give birth to a new self?

Hinata thought of a movie she had seen in her previous life called "The One," which was about how killing all her parallel world selves would grant her superhuman power.

"..."

Hinata mind was racing, suddenly sensed something and temporarily put aside these thoughts. Hinata turned to Orochimaru and said, "Sasuke has arrived. Let's go greet him together!"
