Little Friend with Red Eyes stepped forward!
He stepped forward!
He made his entrance!
He actually taunted his opponent, declaring that he would beat Neji into a pulp. The crowd cheered—cheered for Neji!
They moved! They were fighting!
Little Friend with Red Eyes was the first to use Fire Release, the signature of the Uchiha Clan. The scorching heat was astonishing.
What?!
Neji on the other side actually dispersed the flames with nothing but his fists. The entire crowd was dumbfounded, then erupted into cheers.
Was this the Hyuga Clan's Gentle Fist?!
Was this Gentle Fist?!
As countless people questioned it inwardly, the unwilling Little Friend with Red Eyes made another move.
He drew a kunai. Who would have thought he would use a weapon? That was simply too despicable.
Little Friend with Red Eyes exploded. He hammered at the keyboard. What was wrong with a ninja using a kunai?!
Nothing was wrong with it, but that did not stop everyone from looking down on him!
Seemingly threatened by the kunai, Neji was dodging. Dodging.
The red-eyed student wore a smug grin. Too arrogant. He was simply far too arrogant.
What?!
Neji actually knocked the kunai from the red-eyed student's hand with a single strike. It was unbelievable.
The counterattack began. Neji used his clan's signature technique: Gentle Fist.
One palm, two palms...
Accompanied by a silent KO!
Neji knocked Little Friend with Red Eyes down with an Uppercut, completing his harvest of this experience pack.
What a blood-pumping battle!
Neji looked with satisfaction at the experience he had harvested, a stark contrast to the red-eyed student lying on the ground questioning his life.
As for the red-eyed student's name, sorry! A guy who would not even survive a year did not deserve a name.
So Neji did not care what he was called. He returned to class and spent a leisurely day.
When school ended, Neji met Hinata at the school gate, and the two headed home together.
Along the way, Neji asked, "How have things been going at school lately?"
"It's alright. It's just that the class is a little too lively. Kiba, Naruto, and the others are too energetic," Hinata said somewhat bashfully.
Neji nodded. "I see. When there's a chance, invite them to the training ground. I have something to discuss with them."
Hinata gave a soft hum. She secretly glanced at Neji, curious why Brother Neji wanted to invite them.
But seeing the smile at the corner of Neji's lips, she thought it over with her little head. It should be a good thing, right?
Otherwise, why would Brother Neji be smiling so happily? She had to help Brother Neji invite them.
Meanwhile, Neji was thinking, Lively is good. Being full of energy is great!
They should recover faster then, so he could harvest experience from them a few more times.
It would also solve Hinata's troubles and keep them from being so noisy during class.
With the corners of Neji's lips slightly raised, Hinata had no idea that she was helping a tiger prey on others.
The two chatted all the way to Neji's Laboratory, where they stopped.
"Alright, Hinata, you go home first. I still have some things to do today, so I'll be back later."
"Mm!"
Other than on days when he taught Hinata, Neji stayed in his own Laboratory almost every time and only returned home at night.
After seeing Hinata off, Neji entered his Laboratory. Someone like him did not need to worry about Anbu or Root members watching him, nor about the Third Elder's Peeping Jutsu.
After all, wasn't the bathhouse white enough?
Looking at the jars and bottles in the room, as well as several fake eyes, Neji knew they were merely surface-level decorations.
They counted as another project, such as a Naruto-version surveillance camera. Those fake eyes had been made for that purpose.
Even as a surface tool, he still had to research and produce something practical.
According to his research on the fake eyes, combining them with things like Summoning Jutsu made them highly useful as surveillance cameras.
However, their shortcomings were obvious. At present, they were not stealthy or flexible enough. That needed improvement.
Setting aside those surface-level things, Neji went underground. The space was not large.
But it held something important to Neji: the Cloning Device he had built with his own hands.
Of course, it was still an unfinished product, because many components had to be crafted by him personally.
Buying them was impossible. For one, there were no channels. For another, it would expose him.
So he had basically borrowed Tenten's family workshop and built every part himself.
Flipping through his notes, he began today's assembly work while pondering several matters.
"At present, mass-cloning Byakugan is difficult, but it isn't too big a problem."
With Lineage Factor technology, handling such things was not an issue. What limited him now was merely the equipment.
"The problem is how to fuse them. That part is still unclear for now."
"But I can make a few Byakugan first and test it out."
"Maybe they'll just fuse with a snap. It's not impossible."
Neji smiled at the thought. In this world full of bugs, it was not entirely impossible.
After all, according to his vague memories, Toneri had said that the Tenseigan was Otsutsuki Hamura's eye.
In other words, it was very likely that Hamura's eye had evolved after he moved to the moon.
They were all plot holes anyway. Kishimoto had never filled them in, so there was nothing he could do. As for Boruto, what the hell was that? He had never even watched it.
"Well! The science of my life before last couldn't explain the Pirate World, so naturally it couldn't explain the Naruto World either. A lot of things still need to be tested first."
After thinking it over, Neji stopped dwelling on it. At worst, he could just storm the moon later.
He would seize the Giant Tenseigan directly. If the First Awakening was not enough, wouldn't the Second Awakening work?
Besides, there was even a Third Awakening. Couldn't he beat them after reaching max level?!
Thinking of Momoshiki, Neji continued assembling it. At the very least, it had to be usable within a year.
At this rate, that was going to be tough. Doing everything by hand was exhausting.
A year later.
The days passed one by one, accompanied by the brutalizing of twelve major experience packs.
Neji had reached level fifteen as he wished, and had even gained another level, reaching sixteen.
The Laboratory had also been completed long ago, because the Hot Pot Restaurant's profits had taken off.
There were now quite a few Hyuga Estate-controlled branches in various places, bringing in substantial profits.
Neji had begun spending more freely too. Many things could now be purchased and slightly modified.
He was currently eight years old. His DNF Qi Gong Master had reached level sixteen, with no need for a class advancement quest.
Quite a few skills did not follow the game's learning levels, and some skills did not exist at all.
The skills he currently possessed were:
Awakening (Passive Skill): Activates part of the character's potential upon class advancement, increasing attributes. Mastery of Throwing (Passive Skill): Increases the power and accuracy of thrown objects. Backstep: Makes the user hop backward slightly and evade enemy attacks. Level 1 Basic Skills: Back Kick, Uppercut, Front Kick Level 5 Skills: Low Kick, Doppelganger, Knee Strike, Back Throw. Level 10 Skills: Kin Crusher, Eagle Stomp, Steel Muscle Iron Bones (Passive Skill), Flash Step, Gale Chase. Level 15 Skills: Nen Perception (Passive Skill), Light Affinity (Passive Skill), Energy Blast, Thunder Stomp, Sand Throw, Spirit Ball Bomb.
Among them, Thunder Stomp infused lightning power into the leg for a single attack, dealing lightning damage.
As for Spirit Ball Bomb, it condensed Nen into a small ball and threw it out. It expanded upon hitting its target, carrying somewhat of the flavor of a Rasengan.
Those were the skills Neji currently possessed, not including ninjutsu such as Gentle Fist.
Might Guy: Ah, my nostalgic hometown. Bang, hahaha ^_^.
