The gust caught him completely off guard, making him stumble.
He steadied himself to avoid falling and embarrassing himself, then looked up.
Hinata, who should have been writhing in unbearable pain, had somehow already freed herself from the black flames. Her condition was also extremely strange.
Her pair of brilliant, glowing blue eyes were soul-stirring, like the most beautiful things in the world, utterly mesmerizing.
Sasuke frowned. "What is that? That shouldn't be the Byakugan, right?!"
Hinata sighed. Poor kid, don't you pay attention to the news in the shinobi world?
She had already found it strange that the entire shinobi world was buzzing with the belief that she possessed a pair of Rinnegan. Though that was wrong, the discussion around it was incredibly widespread.

With that thought, Hinata's figure slowly began to rise into the air.
Then, from above, she looked down at Sasuke with those beautiful but largely expressionless eyes.

She regretted it somewhat after saying it, but when she saw Sasuke's dazed, stupefied expression, Hinata felt a burst of pleasure
