Do You Need Chakra to Deal with You?

Byakugan, activate!

The veins at Hiashi Hyuga's temples bulged as he activated his Byakugan and stared directly at Sasuke opposite him!

The next moment, he was stunned once again!

How could such an exaggerated amount of chakra possibly exist in a seven-year-old brat?!

Even a Tailed Beast was probably no more than this!

No wonder Fugaku had agreed so readily. The brat before him was practically a monster wearing human skin!

Huff!

He let out a long breath, calming the raging waves in his heart.

Then, though clearly unwilling, he said:

"Fine! Uchiha Sasuke, our Hyuga clan admits defeat! How can someone your age possess such strength? Release Makino at once, and the grudge between us will be settled!"

Based on the strength Sasuke had displayed, as well as the terrifying amount of chakra contained within his body,

Hiashi Hyuga understood that no one in the Hyuga clan could suppress this brat before them. Unless they mobilized the entire clan—but that would not be worth it. Thus, he decisively chose to back down!

"Heh! You say it's settled, and it's settled? Who the hell do you think you are?!"

Hiashi Hyuga's expression changed at once, and a bad feeling rose in his heart.

"Then what else do you want?!"

Sasuke pointed at Hyuga Makino beneath his foot and said calmly:

"Just now, this guy said he'd strip me naked and hang me at the village gates. As for me, I don't have many virtues, but one of them is that I like returning favors. So, I've decided to strip this guy naked and hang him at the village gates too. And I'll double the time—at least two days and two nights!"

"Bastard! Uchiha Sasuke, don't go too far!"

Hiashi Hyuga was utterly enraged, trembling from head to toe!

Humiliating them once was not enough? He actually wanted to do it again? This was simply too much!

"Too far?! I'm merely returning the methods you intended to use against me!"

Sasuke lightly pressed down with his foot, instantly stopping Hyuga Makino, who had been struggling frantically!

"Fugaku! Is this your intention as well?! Are you trying to make our two clans fight to the death?!"

Unable to persuade Sasuke, Hiashi turned his gaze toward Fugaku.

Fugaku fell silent at those words. Considering the Uchiha clan's current situation, he said to Sasuke:

"Sasuke! Spare people when you can! This is enough! There's no need to push things this far. Besides, you were the one in the wrong first, so..."

Before he could finish, Sasuke ruthlessly cut him off.

"Shut up! You don't get to speak here!"

Fugaku's face immediately darkened like the bottom of a pot!

Bastard! Scolding him in front of so many people—he really gave him no face at all!

Anyone who did not know better would think Fugaku was the son and Sasuke was the father!

That bastard had angered him again!

"Hmph! This guy must be hung at the village gates. I said so—even the Sage of Six Paths couldn't stop me!"

Sasuke kicked Hyuga Makino beneath his foot and spoke with complete calm.

"As the head of the clan, I will never allow you to do this!"

Hiashi Hyuga walked toward Sasuke step by step, his Byakugan remaining activated.

"I'll say it one more time. Release Makino!"

"Come on! If you can take him, you can have him back!"

Sasuke raised his chin, his expression brimming with provocation.

At the same time, he hooked Hyuga Makino with his toe and rolled him behind himself.

"I admit that, at such a young age, you possess the strength to be arrogant. But—"

As he spoke, Hiashi Hyuga had already closed to within two meters of Sasuke.

"—you're still too green, brat! Haven't you heard the saying in the Ninja World? Never let a prepared Hyuga ninja get close!"

Boom!

A powerful aura that had been building for a long time suddenly surged from Hiashi Hyuga's body.

"I've already locked onto you, brat. It's too late to run now!"

Hiashi Hyuga assumed a strange stance. Faintly, a Taiji Eight Trigrams diagram seemed to appear on the ground.

And Sasuke was standing right at the center of it.

Gentle Fist: Eight Trigrams 256 Palms!

Hiashi Hyuga let out a fierce roar. The next instant, countless palm strikes rained down upon Sasuke like a raging storm.

Two palms, four palms, eight palms, sixteen palms... one hundred and twenty-eight palms, two hundred and fifty-six palms!

Huff!

After finishing the palm technique, Hiashi Hyuga let out a long breath, a victorious smile appearing on his face.

"To deal with you, I unleashed the limit—two hundred and fifty-six palms. Be honored, brat!"

"All of your chakra points have now been sealed! Without an enormous amount of chakra supporting you, you're nothing more than a little brat I can handle however I please!"

Hiashi Hyuga carefully examined him with his Byakugan. When he saw that the chakra flow throughout Sasuke's body had completely stopped, a smug smile could not help appearing on his face.

"If you have anyone to blame, blame yourself for being too careless!"

With that, he reached out to grab Sasuke!

Yet he grabbed nothing. The person before him suddenly vanished!

Before his mind could process what had happened, a fair palm rapidly filled his vision!

Smack!

A resounding slap echoed throughout the entire scene!

"Do you need chakra to deal with someone like you?!"

Sasuke's face was expressionless as he delivered a heavy slap across Hiashi Hyuga's face.

At the same time, a system notification sounded in his mind.

[ Ding! Congratulations, Host, on completing the mission. Lottery draws +1 ]

At that moment, Hiashi Hyuga felt his head buzzing, while half his face had swollen bright red.

He... had actually been slapped in public by a little brat!

The instant he realized what had happened, he flew into a rage.

"You damned brat, how dare you humiliate me like this! Do you really think I can't handle you?!"

Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven!

Hiashi Hyuga roared as his body began spinning at high speed.

In an instant, a semicircular blue chakra barrier enveloped him.

He intended to use this method to force Sasuke back!

"You think this piece of junk can deal with me? Heh."

Sasuke gave a soft laugh and threw a punch at the blue chakra barrier before him.

The next moment, under Hiashi Hyuga's incredulous gaze, his Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven, known as the strongest defense, was shattered with a single punch.

Then, he could only watch helplessly as that small fist slammed into his chest.

Bang!

Crack!

Hiashi Hyuga flew backward, and who knew how many ribs in his chest had been broken!

"Clan Head!"

The Hyuga clansmen cried out in alarm and hurriedly caught their clan head.

"Bastard! How dare you humiliate our clan head like this! I'll fight you!"

"Let's attack together! I refuse to believe we can't take down this brat!"

Every Hyuga clansman was filled with indignation, looking as though they wanted to carve Sasuke into a thousand pieces on the spot.

Of course, how much of it was genuine anger and how much was merely an act was impossible to know.

After all, most of those present were members of the branch family.

Quite a few of them felt immensely pleased to see Hiashi Hyuga slapped and sent flying, though naturally, they could not show it on their faces.

"Stop! Don't attack! You're no match for him. Going up will only get you injured for nothing!"

Hiashi Hyuga hurriedly shouted to stop his clansmen, preventing them from continuing to throw themselves away.

"Though you're weak as hell, at least you know your limits!"

Seeing this, Sasuke sincerely praised him.

Hiashi Hyuga: "..."

I can't tell whether you're praising me or mocking me!
