Three years served as an accumulation period.
And the effort put in during that accumulation would determine the final result.
This was a Progress Bar where only effort could bring rewards.
Without effort, any transformation that occurred might be minimal.
This was Ryosuke's speculation regarding the Progress Bar in his mind after the second transformation.
Of course, whether that was truly the case would have to wait until the third transformation before he could reach a conclusion.
This time, during these three years of training, Ryosuke would pay attention to the directions in which he put effort and those he neglected, to see whether the gap between them would be significant when the time came.
"How do you feel?"
Seeing Ryosuke emerge from the deathly silent forest, Hyuga Hiashi hurried forward and asked, "Did that technique just now... place a heavy burden on your body?"
The use of any power came at a certain cost.
According to Hyuga historical records, during the Warring States Period, Madara Uchiha had gone blind for a time after awakening the Mangekyō Sharingan. It was suspected that his body had been unable to bear the burden of its consumption after awakening the Mangekyō Sharingan.
Though no one knew how he had ultimately resolved that problem, Hyuga Hiashi was deeply afraid that Ryosuke might encounter the same thing.
After all, over the thousands of years since the path of evolving the Byakugan and gaining new abilities had emerged, Ryosuke was the only one from the Hyuga Clan who had managed to achieve it.
"Father, don't worry. I feel fine. Other than the Chakra consumption, there's no other burden on my body." Ryosuke answered with a light smile. Although the display just now had been tremendous, the Chakra in his body had not even been fully depleted.
