On the way back to the village, Neji furrowed his brow and sank into thought.
Last night's battle had made him realize where he fell short.
Aside from his Tenseigan's progress, the factor limiting his strength was his chakra reserves.
In fact, every time the Tenseigan awakened, the amount of chakra in Neji's body surged.
It already far surpassed that of his peers, but Neji still wasn't satisfied.
Besides, Neji suspected that even with the Tenseigan fully awakened, he still wouldn't match a prodigy like Naruto..
Ultimately, the amount of chakra one had depended on one's bloodline.
He belonged to the Hyuga clan, not the Otsutsuki Clan.
The Hyuga clan was famous throughout the Shinobi World for its Byakugan and Gentle Fist, but its chakra reserves weren't particularly impressive.

The best charging stations in the Shinobi World.
Everyone should have one.
Even the One-Tail, with the smallest chakra reserves, had far more chakra than an ordinary ninja.
The only problem was that the Nine Tailed Beasts were controlled by the Five Great Nations, each of which had its own Jinchuriki.
If Neji wanted to get his hands on a Tailed Beast, he'd have to plan carefully.

Neji scratched his head and said with a grin, "I was wondering how your leg's doing, Captain."
Yugito had injured her leg and couldn't walk.
Neji was carrying her back to the village.
Aburame Ryoma's insects were troublesome. Once they latched onto their prey, they seeped into every opening like mercury.
As soon as Yugito broke free of the Mind Body Switch Technique, she entered a partial Tailed Beast transformation.
