Hinata: The World is Wrong!

"Good, Lord Hinata, you've got spirit!"

"Lord Hinata, put more force into your next punch!"

"Lord Hinata, if you follow my teachings and train your body and technique hard, I promise you'll become as strong as the clan head, Hyuga Hiashi!"

Hyuga Hinata, an easily shy girl, was the heir of the Hyuga main family, a major clan in Konoha, blessed with the Byakugan of immense potential.

Yet among her peers, her strength had never reached the top tier.

Right now, she was in a training ground, practicing taijutsu under the guidance of a clan chunin named Hideo Hyuga.

With the village swamped with missions, jonin were often away, and even the clan head, Hyuga Hiashi, had his hands full.

So much of the teaching fell to the clan's chunin.

Hideo Hyuga had a lean, sharp build and a crew cut. Though only a chunin, his aura was brimming with vigor—he looked full of spirit!

And Hinata was doing her best to meet Hideo's demands.

But this training style... it made Kazeka furious!

Yes, furious.

"Relying on a brain the size of a paramecium, yet daring to think you can teach a student—you're just leading them astray...

What's worse is that Hyuga Hiashi actually entrusted his own offspring to a fool like you. Seems his judgment isn't all that great either!"

"Hey, Kazeka, you said that out loud. Have some damn restraint when you look down on people!"

Kazeka's voice wasn't quiet, and he clearly hadn't bothered to hide it from Hideo. Hideo knew Kazeka was a weird one and wanted to ignore him, but Kazeka's words were too harsh!

"A brat still in the Ninja Academy has no right to critique me, a chunin!"

"Judging insight by such shallow ninja rankings—as expected, your brain capacity stops there. This level of understanding is enough to make one weep..."

Facing Hideo's angry glare, Kazeka didn't back off. Instead, he stepped closer, then leaned against a big tree:

"You want to train with pure passion, but in your excitement, your form's already breaking down, and you don't even think to correct it.

What's even harder to watch is that you've gotten the core direction of teaching completely wrong!"

"What I'm teaching Lord Hinata is the most standard taijutsu training method of the Hyuga Clan.

It's precisely because I've mastered it most thoroughly that Lord Hiashi entrusted me with teaching the young lady..."

Hideo Hyuga laughed in anger at Kazeka's words:

"As a member of the Hyuga Clan, even if those experiments messed up your head, can you really forget something this basic?"

"The taijutsu instruction isn't the problem, but the key is to pair it with the Byakugan.

Look at Hinata—her focus has clearly shifted to taijutsu, and she's gone completely off track!"

Kazeka yawned:

"Without the Byakugan, you train the body; with the Byakugan, you still just train the body—then what's the point of having the Byakugan?

Has your brain really been flushed down the sewer?"

"Do you think our Byakugan is like the Uchiha Clan's Sharingan, needing step-by-step upgrades?"

Hideo shot Kazeka a vicious glare:

"Unlike them, our Byakugan is already at its peak from birth. All that's left is gradual refinement—no need to waste any more thought on it!"

"And that's exactly why you're so second-rate..."

Kazeka couldn't be bothered to argue with him anymore and fixed his gaze directly on Hinata:

"Hinata, I'm sure you're tired of this kind of training too, aren't you?

You have incredible talent, and you work hard at your training, yet this is all you get in return!"

"Ah... this... this..."

Hinata was naturally shy, and with Kazeka's aggressive stare boring into her, she stammered.

Her timid demeanor, her adorable blushing face, made her look like a helpless little figurine:

"B-but... all my previous t-training was like this!"

"Then that proves they were all wrong!"

Kazeka walked toward Hinata step by step, a faint, unusual fragrance seeming to trail him:

"You have such high potential, and you're getting plenty of clan resources and guidance, yet all you've achieved is strength on par with your peers.

That only means their brains aren't fit to teach you.

And as the heiress, being mediocre is the same as failure!"

Kazeka stopped right in front of Hinata, staring intently at her as she fell silent:

"Come to my laboratory. With my surgery, with my experiments, I'll bring out your full potential and give you true power!"

"Ha, Kazeka, I knew you were up to no good!"

At these words, before Hinata could say anything, Hideo was already shocked.

He knew all too well what Kazeka's laboratory was like:

"Anyone who goes into your lab never comes out whole—either missing an arm or with some monster grafted onto their body.

That most evil murderer from death row was knocked out and dragged to your lab; when he came out, his whole personality had changed, like a little girl who'd been repeatedly violated!

Every test subject there wishes they were dead—your place is basically Frankenstein's research ground..."

As he spoke, Hideo couldn't help swallowing hard, then glared angrily at Kazeka:

"Lady Hinata is the main house of our clan, the one we'd die to protect—how dare you say something like that!"

"Different people, different constitutions—the experimental methods naturally differ too.

And since Hinata is main house, I'll give her special care!"

Kazeka waved dismissively at Hideo, then turned his head back to Hinata:

"Don't you want power beyond ordinary people?

Don't you want strength that the clan head would acknowledge?

Hearing Lord Hyuga say, 'I'm sorry, my teaching was wrong before!'—wouldn't that be thrilling?

Hinata, think it over—how can you train properly with these Worms?"

"Enough!"

Seeing Kazeka growing bolder, Hideo finally lost his temper:

"You Mad Scientist who only knows how to seduce—I won't let you lay a hand on Lady Hinata!"

Hideo mobilized his Chakra, ready to shut Kazeka up with his chunin-level strength.

But just then, Hinata, who had been standing still, suddenly flashed behind Kazeka.

She drove a fist hard into Hideo's abdomen.

"Boom!"

With a loud crash, Hideo was sent flying by Hinata's punch!

Pushing aside the broken log that had crushed him, Hideo stared in shock at Hinata before him, suddenly realizing.

The timid, shy Hinata seemed to have changed into someone else, staring at Hideo with a cold expression like she was looking at trash:

"So I can unleash this much power—your useless teaching really was the problem all along..."

Hinata clenched her fists:

"As I thought, it's not me who's wrong—it's this world!"
