Bang bang bang bang bang!!
This flurry of finger strikes landed on Hyuga Mami's body.
The force of the strikes penetrated.
Chakra entered her meridians.
Based on the Gentle Fist Style that Hyuga Sho had developed, the chakra within Hyuga Mami's body began flowing in reverse.
Various forces gathered together.
Like a time bomb, they waited to explode from within her body.
Hyuga Mami, who had been struck by the Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms, stood there.
Her lips trembled, her brows knitted tightly, and a trace of melancholy mixed into her expression.
Hyuga Sho...
Because the pain was about to erupt, Hyuga Mami could no longer speak.
She could only stare at Hyuga Sho's face.
"Young Lady, enduring pain is a basic skill for a ninja."
After finishing his attack, Hyuga Sho looked at Hyuga Mami.
The latter stood there, completely motionless.
Or rather, she didn't dare move at all.
The more she moved recklessly, the faster the chakra accumulated in her meridians would erupt.
As the Young Lady of the Hyuga Clan's Main Family,
Hyuga Mami had to preserve more than just the Hyuga Clan's reputation. She also had to maintain... her dignity.
Standing there motionless like a puppet was the greatest effort she could make to preserve her self-respect and maintain the Hyuga Clan's decorum.
"There's no need to worry."
Hyuga Sho took another step.
He came behind Hyuga Mami.
"I'll help the Young Lady maintain her dignity..."
As he spoke, Hyuga Sho raised his arm and covered Hyuga Mami's mouth.
A moment later, the chakra within her meridians erupted, and pain swept through Hyuga Mami's body like a tidal wave.
After more than ten seconds, the chakra within her meridians finished erupting.
Hyuga Sho released the arm supporting Hyuga Mami.
Thud...
Hyuga Mami collapsed to the ground.
