Hyuga Sho

"Hyuga Sho... Hyuga Sho..."

Hearing someone call his name, Hyuga Sho opened his eyes, only to feel a splitting headache.

The last thing he remembered was the image of a nuclear missile exploding.

He was alone against the world, but he never expected them to actually use such a weapon to eliminate him.

So, logically, he should have turned to ash. Then what was this now...?

His blurry vision gradually cleared.

The silhouette of an incredibly cute loli slowly appeared before his eyes.

"Who?"

Could she have saved me?

Also, what's wrong with this girl's eyes?

Cataracts?

"Sho-kun..."

Hearing Hyuga Sho's question, the girl before him, who possessed the "Byakugan," couldn't help but show a worried expression.

'Come to think of it, those eyes are beautiful...'

Those crystal clear eyes, shimmering with a white luster, were so clear before Hyuga Sho.

As Hyuga Sho was contemplating, memories that did not belong to him flooded his mind.

In his original body's memories.

This world was a supernatural world where the primary profession was "Ninja."

There was a ninja clan called "Hyuga," whose special ability was the "Byakugan," capable of seeing through objects and observing the body's meridians.

This clan was divided into the "Main Family" and the "Branch Family."

The Main Family, holding a dominant position, branded the foreheads of the Branch Family members with a "Curse Mark" called the "Caged Bird Seal."

This not only sealed the Byakugan's abilities after the user's death, but the lives of the Branch Family members were also entirely controlled by the Main Family.

During the process of Hyuga Sho being branded with the curse mark, there was a slight deviation, resulting in a rejection reaction with a probability as low as winning the lottery.

The next moment.

Text and a voice popped up before his eyes.

[Doka Degree: 1%]

Having read countless fantasy works, Hyuga Sho immediately realized that this was likely a "cheat"... no, an "effort" system.

Then what did this Doka Degree mean?

Did it mean that 99% of the quantifiable value remained to break free from the control of the Caged Bird Seal?

"A-Natsu, I'm fine."

Hyuga Sho, with his extreme adaptability, quickly accepted the current situation.

The loli before him, Hyuga Natsu, was the same age as him.

At 5 years old, she also belonged to the Branch Family.

"I'm glad you're alright, here..."

Hyuga Natsu breathed a sigh of relief, picked up a spoon from a wooden tray beside her.

She supported Hyuga Sho with one hand to sit up, and then...

She gently blew on the rice porridge scooped onto the spoon and brought it to Hyuga Sho's mouth.

Hyuga Sho: "..."

The loli with dark green hair was exceptionally beautiful.

She was cuter than any girl Hyuga Sho had ever seen in his previous life.

In the 2D world, this was probably what it would be like.

But no matter what, this feeding action was a bit too intimate.

Thinking carefully, besides being "clan members of the same clan, Branch Family," they didn't seem to have any special relationship like childhood sweethearts or a sudden romance...

Was it because she was naturally kind? Or was she the type who let her guard down easily? Or was it because she was a child and didn't realize it?

The intimate feeding continued, enough to satisfy any loli-con.

After Hyuga Natsu, who had finished taking care of him, left.

Hyuga Sho's body gradually regained some strength.

He slowly stood up and walked to the mirror. Hyuga Sho got a clear look at his face in this life.

A delicate-looking shota.

It was foreseeable that he would be stunningly handsome when he grew up.

"So I really did turn into a child's body..."

He carefully examined his new body, and then his eyes.

"Is this the Byakugan?"

Hyuga Sho reached for his eye sockets, gazing at the white eyes in the mirror, so similar to Hyuga Natsu's.

Finally, his gaze settled on the strange, light green pattern on his forehead.

"Caged Bird Seal."

It was the Main Family's control over the Branch Family.

He sat down cross-legged, carefully thinking and summarizing the current information.

A moment later.

The allure of the supernatural powers in this new world spurred Hyuga Sho into action.

"Gentle Fist!"

Hyuga Sho attempted a palm strike, swiftly thrusting forward.

Next was...

"Eight Trigrams Two Palms!"

Hyuga Sho attacked with both hands, pointing two fingers in quick succession.

Snap, snap!

The air vibrated.

Blue vortexes shot from his fingertips.

The supernatural power of this world, the source of its energy, was called "Chakra."

Using Chakra to power the Gentle Fist was the essence of the Hyuga Clan's Taijutsu.

"Eight Trigrams Four Palms!"

He struck four times in a row.

Four blue lights bloomed in the air.

"Eight Trigrams Eight Palms!"

This time, it was eight strikes.

As a member of the Branch Family, Hyuga Sho currently practiced a Taijutsu routine called "Gentle Fist: Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms."

Ten minutes, twenty minutes, half an hour...

Only when his arms were too sore to lift did the continuously training Hyuga Sho have to stop.

[Doka Degree: 2%]

"The value increased because I practiced the Eight Trigrams Palms? What will happen when it reaches 100%?!"

In his previous life.

Hyuga Sho was trapped in a world without miracles.

It was the happiness of the weak, but the sorrow of the strong.

But now, he knew, everything was different.

"To roam the world, invincible."

"To turn the tide with my own strength, making every man a nation."

"I started doing things like this in my last life, but I couldn't fully achieve them... but in this life..."

Hyuga Sho's eyes burned as he gazed at his reflection in the mirror.

"Next, I need to think carefully about how to bide my time and cultivate a harmless persona, before I become strong enough to escape the Main Family's control..."

Hiding my strength was fine.

Lying low was just to soar into the sky in the future.

He sat down cross-legged, allowing his body to rest.

What Hyuga Sho didn't know was that while he was training, Hyuga Natsu outside had not left and had secretly watched the entire process.

"Sho-kun..."

A blush slowly spread across Hyuga Natsu's cute face.
