Power Progression
Masahiko’s recorded progress with Gentle Fist:
| Stage / Realm / Level | Chapter | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | 115 | Appears on his Attribute Panel after he practices from Gentle Fist Basics. |
| Level 3 | 116 | Reached after more than a month of practice; he goes through the basics twice most mornings. |
| Level 6 | 126 | Reached after roughly half a year of focused training. The Hyuga Clan Head judges Masahiko’s Gentle Fist comparable to his own. |
| Level 8 | 128 | Reached through training over the following two years, without a reported bottleneck. |
| Level 9 | 165 | Masahiko’s first skill raised to level nine through his own training; it increases his Body attribute by a little over 500 points. |
| Level 10 / maximum | 239 | Completing his final practice round involuntarily draws him into a newly gained Eight Trigrams Domain. His Body attribute does not increase at this level. |
Background and Training
The Hyuga Clan Head asks Masahiko to take the young Hiashi and Hizashi as disciples. Although he initially expects Masahiko to teach only basic ninja skills, Masahiko requests Gentle Fist material so he can teach the children their clan’s style 114. Given Gentle Fist Basics, Masahiko learns its movements quickly and notices a resemblance to tai chi from his previous life 115.
Masahiko later credits the Hyuga style with giving him access to Space Ninjutsu years earlier than he otherwise expected 246. Gentle Fist remains part of his teaching: he guides Hinata through sparring and uses it as the foundation for his own eighteen-move taijutsu style 337 483.
Techniques and Limits
Chakra-point strikes
- Gentle Fist strikes can seal an opponent’s chakra points. Toneri immobilizes Uchiha Hoshino this way during a spar, then releases her points afterward 430.
- Masahiko cannot learn certain Hyuga secret techniques through Gentle Fist proficiency alone because he lacks the Byakugan. He specifically identifies Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven and Vacuum Palm as techniques he cannot use 126.
Bagua Palms
- By the time Masahiko investigates the Hyuga inheritance, the clan’s preserved sequence reaches 64 Palms. Its inherited 128 Palms repeats those sixty-four strikes in reverse rather than targeting 128 distinct acupoints 247.
- According to Hiashi, the lost true 128 Palms targets 128 acupoints and is more than ten times stronger than 64 Palms. The 256 Palms is stronger still and is said to produce a space-shattering attack when mastered 246 247.
- The Hyuga reconstruct the true 128 Palms with Masahiko’s help; Hiashi later brings him a manual for the 256 Palms 249 333. Toneri subsequently performs 256 Palms against Masahiko, with the force of his strikes increasing through the sequence 497.
Eight Trigrams Space
- Maxing out Gentle Fist gives Masahiko an enclosed Eight Trigrams Domain, which he names the Eight Trigrams Space 239.
- Within it, he discovers that he can bring in another living being, travel between nodes, and suppress other Release techniques 239.
- Masahiko shows the space to Hiashi, whose clan traditions link advanced Gentle Fist to the ability to shatter space 246.
