For the past five days, Jun Tianlin had been wandering around Rouge Town, gathering intelligence like a diligent little bee. His hard work had finally paid off, and his efforts were not in vain!
During these five days, Jun Tianlin had effortlessly located his final target: Hyuga Taiyuan. The man left early and returned late every day, making no attempt to hide his tracks as he swaggered through the pleasure districts.
It was baffling where a mere jonin-level rogue ninja like Hyuga Taiyuan found the confidence to be so brazenly carefree. Was he not afraid of bounty hunters from the underworld or the pursuit teams sent by Konoha?
Or did this guy truly believe his strength was enough to handle any enemy, leaving him with no cause for concern?
Faced with such behavior, Jun Tianlin could not fathom the reasoning. He eventually gave up on thinking and cursed under his breath, "What an idiot!"
However, cursing was one thing; the task at hand still had to be done.
After spending five days gathering intelligence on Hyuga Taiyuan and observing him repeatedly, Jun Tianlin had a rough grasp of his daily habits. Finally, after careful consideration, he decided to strike on a small path that Hyuga Taiyuan was bound to take on his way home.
Jun Tianlin did not rest for the entire night, instead continuously adjusting his state to keep it at its peak to prepare for the coming battle.
Early the next morning, Jun Tianlin arrived at the path Hyuga Taiyuan was sure to take, standing there motionless as he began his wait.
It was still early morning; although the sky was bright, the sun had yet to rise, and a light mist and dew permeated the flower-lined path.
"Tap, tap, tap, tap."
Dozens of minutes later, a faint sound of footsteps slowly drifted through the quiet path. A middle-aged man wearing a blue robe with black hair draped over his shoulders walked forward with a light step, his eyes showing only whites without pupils, a lecherous grin hanging on his face.
Is he here?
Just by looking at the characteristic white eyes of the Hyuga Clan, Jun Tianlin was certain that this middle-aged man, reeking of lechery, was undoubtedly Hyuga Taiyuan!
If one were to look for a Kekkei Genkai clan in the entire Ninja World that could be identified at a single glance, it would surely be the Hyuga Clan, who possessed the Byakugan Kekkei Genkai.
There was no helping it; the Byakugan of the Hyuga Clan was just that iconic. With eyes lacking black pupils and showing only whites, anyone who wasn't a fool would know they belonged to a member of the Hyuga Clan upon seeing those distinctive eyes.
In an instant, Jun Tianlin shed his previous casual demeanor. He stared intently at the approaching Hyuga Taiyuan, his gaze gradually sharpening. A faint aura of killing intent began to permeate his surroundings—the prelude to a kill!
"Hmm?"
Hyuga Taiyuan, who had been happily thinking about finding Xiangxiang for some fun once he reached the Flower Pavilion, suddenly sensed a faint killing intent coming from ahead and became alert.
He abruptly looked up, narrowing his cataract-like eyes toward the source of the killing intent. Jun Tianlin's signature white hair and white clothes came into view.
Looking at Jun Tianlin's emotionless eyes, Hyuga Taiyuan put away his frivolous, lecherous grin, a ferocious sneer appearing at the corner of his mouth instead.
"I was wondering who would be blocking my path so early in the morning. So, it's a bounty hunter who accepted a mission to take my head! But tell me, you white-haired brat, are you sure you have the ability to take down a tiger like me?"
In the silence, Jun Tianlin's eyelids closed, and when he opened them again, a sharp light surged forth. At this moment, his spirit and energy had reached their peak, and his killing intent began to churn wildly.
"Enough talk. Let's see what you're made of. Die!"
