Something Went Wrong

Was it really that far?

Bai Yue was stunned. He wasn't tired, just a little surprised by the distance.

The Hyuga Clan Compound lay northwest of Konoha, yet under Hyuga Jinren's lead, they crossed the entire village and headed southeast.

They walked and stopped along the way. Though his reputation wasn't great, even Qin Hui had three friends, so Hyuga Jinren still had a few acquaintances in the village he could nod to.

It took over an hour before Bai Yue finally reached their destination.

Of course, Bai Yue hadn't forgotten to pick up the customized gift from the Ceramics Shop along the way.

"Uncle Shinnin!"

The moment they arrived, a somewhat rough female voice rang out.

"It's Kiba." Hyuga Jinren looked toward the source of the voice and greeted her with a smile.

"This kid is your grandson?" Kiba Inuzuka was exceedingly bold and forthright!

In Bai Yue's eyes, Kiba Inuzuka felt more like a man! He had absolutely no interest in her...

"Kid, you look like you're thinking something unpleasant!" Kiba Inuzuka slapped Bai Yue on the head, her smile gradually turning savage.

Yes, that was right. This woman was far too forceful. Even her smile carried a vicious air.

"?!" Bai Yue was dumbfounded. The slap had landed with just the right amount of force—enough to daze him without hurting his brain.

Bai Yue didn't know whether to praise this woman's beast-like intuition or her utterly uninhibited boldness...

Honestly, this was the first time Bai Yue had ever been hit!

"That expression looks much better now. Hahaha..."

Hyuga Jinren rubbed his forehead. He couldn't even bear to hit his own well-behaved grandson, yet Kiba Inuzuka had greeted him with a slap!

And he had no idea how to deal with this woman's forthrightness.

"Hua'er, come take a look at your partner for tomorrow." She vigorously ruffled Bai Yue's head, directly ruining the high ponytail Aunt Hanako had painstakingly fixed for him.

I can't fucking tolerate this!

Adamantine Sealing Chains!

Bai Yue attacked immediately!

During this past month of Sage Mode training, it wasn't just his Sage Mode level that had improved. His Sage Chakra had increased dramatically as well!

That was right!

Bai Yue hadn't refined ordinary Chakra. He had gone straight to combining physical energy and spiritual energy with Natural Energy, directly refining Sage Chakra!

In the original story, cultivating Sage Mode first required a large amount of Chakra as a foundation. Otherwise, one could easily suffer backlash from Natural Energy.

But Bai Yue was different. Perfect Blood let him skip straight to the final step!

With such a foundation, ordinary Chakra? Sorry! Never heard of it!

In other words, Bai Yue's Sage Mode was practically permanently active!

Bai Yue's sudden attack immediately drew everyone's attention.

As one of the main figures in this fight, Kiba Inuzuka sprang backward several times the instant Bai Yue formed his hand seals, rapidly retreating away from him.

It was precisely because she retreated so quickly that she avoided being tied up like a dumpling at once.

"Not bad, kid! You've got some skill!" Kiba Inuzuka's smile became increasingly unrestrained. Her hands were starting to itch for a fight!

"Bai Yue!" Hyuga Jinren immediately shouted, "What are you doing?!"

"..." Bai Yue froze, then immediately released the Adamantine Sealing Chains.

Fuck, he had gotten a little carried away!

He had even forgotten that tomorrow was Minato Namikaze and Kushina's Wedding!

And he had actually started fighting in such an important place! He was way too full of himself!

"Sorry, Grandpa!" Bai Yue immediately apologized.

"You shouldn't be apologizing to me!" This was one of Hyuga Jinren's rare reprimands.

"Sorry, Teacher Minato!" A yellow flash passed by, and Minato Namikaze appeared on the scene.

He had originally been inside Changchun Shrine, asking the priest about matters requiring attention during the Wedding. But upon sensing the powerful Chakra fluctuation, he had rushed over at once.

"What happened, Bai Yue?" After looking around and finding nothing unusual, Minato Namikaze turned to Bai Yue and asked.

"I just learned a powerful technique and wanted to test it. I forgot this was the important venue for Teacher Minato's Wedding tomorrow..." Bai Yue decisively apologized and explained the reason.

He had truly gotten too carried away just now! He had completely lost himself in excitement!

He had actually fought in a place like this!

If this had been his previous life, starting a fight the day before someone's Wedding would get him thrown out at best—and cut off forever at worst.

"I see!" Minato was stunned. He had never expected Bai Yue to do something like this.

In Minato's impression, Bai Yue was a smart, diligent, polite, sensible, and steady good child who occasionally liked to play pranks.

"I'm rather curious. What kind of technique could make you this excited?!" Minato couldn't help becoming curious.

"!!!" Bai Yue was startled!

Something was fucking wrong! Even with the cheat ability I brought from crossing over, I could keep myself restrained and low-key. Would a mere Sage Mode really make me lose myself like this?

There was something wrong with this Sage Mode!

Bai Yue immediately realized something was off!

Jugo would go berserk in places rich with Natural Energy because his Sage Chakra was incomplete.

I won't go berserk, but does it seem to affect my mind too?

Or is my control insufficient, so I'm being affected?!

No matter what, I need to calm down first!

"Teacher, seal my Chakra!" Bai Yue suddenly raised his head and said solemnly.

"Alright!" Seeing Bai Yue so serious, Minato did not hesitate. He nodded gravely, then used the all-purpose Four Symbols Seal to directly seal Bai Yue's Chakra. "Are you... being affected by the technique?"

"Yes. There's a strong possibility that my control over the technique isn't sufficient, so it affected me."

"A technique whose side effects can affect one's mental state?" Minato's tone turned serious. "I don't know what technique it is, but don't use it again until you're absolutely certain it's safe!"

"I understand, Teacher!" Even without Minato Namikaze's warning, Bai Yue would never risk continuing his Sage Mode training.

"Kid, are you done?" Kiba Inuzuka stood nearby with her arms folded, teasing him. "You gave me quite a scare just now!"

"Sorry, Senior Kiba. I got too carried away just now." Bai Yue admitted defeat. After all, this woman really would beat him if she said she would. He had just had Minato Namikaze seal his Chakra, so he currently had no ability to fight back at all.

"Don't be like that. If I were you, I'd be even more arrogant! Wahaha..." She patted Bai Yue again, though this time on the shoulder. "You're only one or two years older than my Hua'er, yet you can already use such a powerful Sealing Jutsu as Adamantine Sealing Chains!"

"Bai Yue, don't study those techniques anymore for the time being." Hyuga Jinren spoke up from the side as well.

From Bai Yue and Minato Namikaze's conversation, he had learned that his own great-grandson had run into trouble while cultivating a secret technique! He hurriedly put a stop to Bai Yue's recent research.

"I understand, Grandpa. In the next phase, I'll train Taijutsu instead."
