Because Naruto's attention was captured by Hinata, he didn't eagerly jump out as soon as Iruka finished speaking.

Without Naruto initiating, Iruka had no choice but to have the students introduce themselves according to their seating order.

However, when it was Uchiha Sasuke's turn, he kept looking in Hinata's direction during his introduction. Hinata knew that Sasuke probably saw her as a rival.

"My name is Uzumaki Naruto, and my goal is to gain everyone's recognition and become Hokage!"

When it was Naruto's turn, as expected, he declared his Hokage ambition.

And, as expected, it drew laughter from his classmates.

Then, it was Hinata's turn to introduce herself.

"My name is Hyuga Hinata."

"Alright, Hyuga-san, you can sit down."

Iruka waited for a moment, only to realize that Hinata only intended to say this much.

He had no choice but to let Hinata sit down. After everyone had finished their introductions, Iruka began to talk about the origins of the Ninja Academy and the Will of Fire.

Naruto, sitting next to Hinata, listened with burning passion, wishing he could become Hokage immediately.

"He's so foolishly cute."

Hinata didn't know what to say anymore.

If someone else with Naruto's experiences were in his shoes, they probably would have turned dark and sought revenge on Konoha long ago.

Not long after Iruka finished explaining the Will of Fire, the Third Hokage arrived at the classroom.

After all, everyone present was the future of Konoha, so the Third Hokage had no reason not to make an appearance.

However, after Iruka finished explaining the Will of Fire, the Third Hokage explained it again...

Hinata: "..."

Oh well, she wasn't here to learn anything anyway.

She was just going through the motions; whatever they wanted to talk about was irrelevant to her.

While the Third Hokage was speaking about the Will of Fire on the podium, Hinata shifted her attention to the System Panel.

More specifically, to [Immortal Body] Lv2.

In these two years, Immortal Body had finally upgraded.

Just as Hinata had guessed, along with [Immortal Body], [Byakugan] had also upgraded.

The upgraded [Immortal Body] had terrifying vitality, capable of regenerating from a single drop of blood!

Besides vitality, Hinata felt there were other abilities, but they would require time to discover.

The changes to [Byakugan] after reaching Lv10 were even more significant.

After upgrading, the Byakugan's abilities were surprisingly similar to the Tenseigan, or rather, it was the Tenseigan.

It just didn't require Chakra, instead consuming Hinata's stamina and mental energy.

With Hinata's stamina and mental energy from her Immortal Body, she could probably keep the Tenseigan activated indefinitely without much consumption.

Moreover, Hinata discovered that the power of her Tenseigan seemed immense.

And not just a little bit immense; Hinata had a feeling that a single Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion from her could cleave the ground beneath her feet in half.

Most importantly, this wasn't an illusion...

But none of that was important. What was important was that after awakening the Tenseigan, Hinata gained not only control over repulsion and attraction but also the ability to manipulate space.

This made Hinata extremely happy, as spatial abilities would be incredibly convenient for dealing with those bizarre creatures in the future.

Even though she had a bizarre creature in her possession that could create a subspace, it wasn't her own power and was inconvenient to use.

The only thing troubling Hinata now was that even though Immortal Body and Byakugan had upgraded, the experience bar for [Great Void Sword Qi] was still not full.

During this time, Hinata dragged the Cun Jin Cultivation Method onto Great Void Sword Qi, allowing it to absorb the cultivation method, but it still didn't fill the experience bar for Great Void Sword Qi.

There was always that last 10% missing to level Great Void Sword Qi to ten.

Currently, Hinata was learning the Hyuga Gentle Fist.

She discovered that while practicing the Hyuga Gentle Fist, the experience bar for Great Void Sword Qi increased by a tiny bit.

Even though it was only a tiny bit, it gave Hinata hope.

But Hinata estimated that even fully mastering the Hyuga Gentle Fist wouldn't be enough to upgrade Great Void Sword Qi.

Therefore, Hinata planned to learn Konoha Steel Fist after mastering the Hyuga Gentle Fist. After learning Konoha Steel Fist, she intended to visit other ninja villages.

What was currently giving Hinata a headache was that after Immortal Body and Byakugan upgraded, their experience bars stopped moving.

Hinata thought for a long time before realizing that Immortal Body and the Tenseigan had likely evolved to their peak, with no further evolutionary paths.

This gave Hinata a severe headache.

The Tenseigan was a different story; Hinata had already thought of a method to fuse the Rinnegan and the Tenseigan. Although she didn't know if it would work, it was at least a direction.

But the method to upgrade the Immortal Body was something she couldn't find anytime soon.

Hinata wondered if she could absorb the power of Bizarre Creatures to evolve the Immortal Body and other abilities.

But after experimenting, she found it was completely impossible!

Hinata had once risked absorbing a small portion of a Bizarre Creature's energy.

However, once the energy entered her body, it acted like a mortal enemy, attacking and destroying Hinata's cells.

This energy was like a potent poison to living beings; it simply couldn't be absorbed.

Gradually, Hinata gave up on this method.

Then, Hinata set her sights on the Divine Tree, or rather, Otsutsuki Kaguya!

After consuming the Chakra Fruit, Otsutsuki Kaguya's life level had evolved. She had become truly immortal.

Her Vitality was estimated to be only slightly weaker than Hinata's, and if she could devour it, it would likely be a great supplement for Hinata.

But the problem was, Hinata's Immortal Body upgraded or evolved by consuming Divine Tree factors.

Would devouring Otsutsuki Kaguya, who had transformed into the Divine Tree, be effective?

If she couldn't even split the moon, why not try devouring Otsutsuki Kaguya?

Setting aside what would happen to the Shinobi World without the moon, the Sage of Six Paths himself probably wouldn't agree.

Although his agreement didn't really matter, the Shinobi World couldn't exist without the moon. Her home was here.

However, Hinata knew she was being a bit too greedy.

The Level 1 Immortal Body was already incredibly overpowered, and the immortality of the Level 2 Immortal Body made Hinata virtually indestructible.

Moreover, Hinata's own strength was already immense; not just anyone could kill her.

The pursuit of upgrading the Immortal Body was merely to see what kind of existence she would become after the Immortal Body reached Level 10.

Although the thought of upgrading the Immortal Body was temporarily set aside, Hinata hadn't given up.

After all, as long as she wasn't killed, she could live forever, and she couldn't be killed...

Hinata withdrew her attention from the System Panel because the Third Hokage's speech had ended.

She scanned the classroom and noticed that the children inside weren't tired of listening.

She knew that when she was in school, if the principal lectured on the stage for that long, everyone would have been drowsy long ago.
