Jiraiya looked at Hinata in astonishment and asked, "How did you do that? I examined the Yata Mirror carefully when we came in. The barrier on its surface was so strong that even if Naruto, Future Naruto, Sasuke, and I worked together, we might not be able to break it, let alone you. How did you manage it?"

Hinata nodded, activated her Tenseigan, and took
