Seeing Neji like this, Hagoromo didn't ask any more questions.
Instead, he simply sat down to the side, letting the disciple perceive it carefully before speaking.
Neji looked at his palm in disbelief, then looked up at the sky.
When he looked in the direction of Hagoromo again, he was startled.
After all, in his sight, Hagoromo was like a huge Chakra reactor, surging with massive Chakra fluctuations.
And it seems that his perception has changed a little.
The strange energy emanating from the Chakra startled Neji.
Hagoromo, seeing Neji seemingly lost in thought, waved his hand and asked.
"What's wrong?"
"I don't know how to say it," Neji, shaking his head.
"Just explain it in detail, as you can understand it." Hearing this, Hagoromo became curious instead.
"The field of view has expanded significantly; previously, the radius was less than fifty meters, but now it's well over half a kilometer."
"Furthermore, I can feel a significant improvement in the depth and precision of my vision; I can see Chakra flow and the details of meridians and acupoints much more clearly and subtly."
"And..."
Neji didn't finish his sentence before reaching out and grabbing a dragonfly that was flying towards him.
Hagoromo understood immediately, and her dynamic vision was also enhanced.
"But, teacher, the most important thing is that I've noticed the Chakra I see now is different from before; there's something else involved."
Neji released the dragonfly and spoke to Hagoromo.
"A little extra stuff?" Yu Yi asked, a hint of curiosity in her Hagoromo.
The sheer increase in insight and the enhancement in dynamic strength alone can be said to have instantly raised the ceiling of a ninja.
After all, ninjas have always been a tool for assassination.
"Yes, it's like I can sense a faint emotion in your Chakra, Hagoromo- sensei."
Neji considered his words before speaking.
Hagoromo's eyes widened involuntarily, her emotions...
This directly touches upon the soul, a perception that only Karin in the original work has ever experienced.
Moreover, it's something she possesses from Mind's Eye of the Kagura, just like how she can sense Sasuke and Naruto's Chakra fluctuations.
However, it's estimated that it doesn't qualify yet.
Hagoromo said to Neji, "Yes, for now, you should keep it a secret and not tell anyone."
Neji nodded; naturally, the fewer people who know about this, the better.
As he thought about it, Neji took off the black ribbon from his head.
Hagoromo naturally understood Neji's meaning, and after observing for a moment, he said:
"It's nothing, nothing has changed, but you'll still be tied up."
Neji nodded upon hearing this. He considered it a humiliation, and naturally, he couldn't openly reveal it.
"Besides these, is there anything else?"
Hagoromo then got up and went to Neji's side to ask, since he was more concerned about the development of Neji's Byakugan.
"Yes, it's as if there's a force constantly in my mind, albeit very slowly."
"But I can feel my focus and the precision of my Chakra control slowly increasing."
Neji nodded.
Hagoromo stroked his chin and said to Neji, "Hinata will take a look at you tomorrow. You can come to my house tonight."
The Byakugan can see through things, so the Hagoromo can prevent Neji from being detected by Byakugan.
"... yes."
Neji before slowly nodding.
--
The next day.
"Oh! Why is it so late again!"
Naruto had just gotten up, glanced at the alarm clock and was immediately startled awake.
After a flurry of activity, he headed out with his ninja tool bag.
Every now and then, out of carelessness, they stepped directly on some of the railings on someone's roof, causing chaos and confusion.
"Feel sorry!"
Ignoring the old Naruto cursing him from the balcony behind him, Naruto apologized and quickly left.
He had barely stepped onto the training field when he called out breathlessly, "Teacher! I didn't mean to be late!"
On the training field, Hagoromo helplessly covered his forehead. Naruto, that kid, although he was the most enthusiastic in training...
But sometimes I can't get up, mostly because I chatted with Nine-Tails Fox too late last night.
"Naruto-kun, you haven't eaten yet, have you?"
Hinata then came to Naruto's side and handed him a bento box.
"Thank you, Hinata!"
Naruto accepted it with a smile, then, as if sensing something, turned his head to look.
"Hey! Aren't you that grumpy guy?!"
Naruto pointed in shock at Neji, who was training alone in the middle of the field, and shouted.
Seeing Hinata and Neji get pointed at by Naruto like that, I was speechless.
Snap--
Hagoromo slapped Naruto on the head in an annoyed tone.
"Naruto, you shouldn't point your finger at people, it's very impolite."
"Furthermore, starting today Neji will be training with you all."
"Yes, teacher!" Naruto replied without the slightest complaint.
Then, she moved over to Neji's side and looked at him curiously.
Neji, who was currently practicing the Inch Power Eight Gates taught by the Hagoromo School, twitched his lips and turned to ask:
"Is something the matter?"
"Uh, no. Want to eat together?" Naruto asked, holding up the bento box in his hand.
"No."
When Naruto approached him with the Hinata had given him and asked if he wanted some, Neji simply shook his head.
When she arrived this morning, Hagoromo had already shown Hinata face.
Hinata saw nothing different about Neji in Hinata Byakugan.
Once they arrived, Hagoromo felt relieved.
At least, Neji has had time to develop.
Seeing this, Naruto didn't say anything more and turned to start eating breakfast.
Having just finished eating and thanking Hinata, Naruto turned and challenged Sasuke.
"Sasuke! Come and get your punch!"
"... You're Dead Last, have you gotten a little cocky lately?" Sasuke, who had been called out, looked at Naruto speechlessly and asked.
"Getting cocky? You think the victors worry about getting cocky?"
Naruto crossed his arms and said to Sasuke in a very irritating way.
After all, he had a better record against Sasuke than against him in their past battles.
Sasuke felt veins bulging on his forehead, turned around and walked towards the Earth Flow, saying as he did so:
"Dead Last, I'm going to beat you up today!"
"Who's afraid of who!" Naruto retorted.
Neji, standing to the side, stopped his training and pondered the new circle he had just joined.
He was momentarily at a loss for how to adapt; were all of Master Hagoromo's disciples so strange?
"Neji, let's take a look together. Occasional competition can be beneficial for training."
Hagoromo replied with a smile.
He no longer needs to give Naruto and Sasuke tasks; they will fight each other before or after training.
Neji nodded, temporarily putting aside his training. He also wanted to see just how strong this blond-haired Naruto really was.
After all, their last match never really started.
Or rather, I already lost last time.
