Hinata's Grace

"Hinata, do you know what you're saying? How can you say something like 'I don't want to be a ninja'?"

"You need to understand that only ninjas who constantly fight possess the strength to protect their families. I admit Naruto is quite strong, but if you're too weak, you'll be a burden to him."

Kurenai tried her best to persuade Hinata, expressing her deep sorrow over Hinata's decision not to become a ninja.

"Kurenai- sensei, even if I don't become a ninja, I will still train hard. Besides, Naruto doesn't want me to be a ninja, and I don't want him to be unhappy," Hinata said earnestly.

"Hinata, think it over carefully, consider it again, don't make a decision so quickly," Kurenai continued to persuade her.

"Ms. Kurenai, I've made up my mind. This is my final decision," Hinata replied, her face tense.

She had indeed thought it through carefully, and her progress over the past month had been significant; there was no need for her to waste time being a ninja.

But.

Kurenai, unaware of this, sighed helplessly and said, "How about this, Hinata? If you can hold out against me for three minutes, I'll agree to your proposal."

"Really?" Hinata asked hurriedly.

"Real."

Kurenai nodded. With her Jonin -level strength, defeating Hinata would be a piece of cake, so a smile appeared on her lips.

"Teacher, please get ready." Hinata assumed a starting stance.

"Hinata, watch closely. Your weaknesses are quite obvious. While you're good in close combat, you're much weaker at ranged attacks. You'll be at a disadvantage against ranged attackers, and as for Genjutsu ninjas..."

Kurenai revealed a faint smile, and suddenly formed a hand Hand Seals.

[Fantasy - Tree Binding Death]

The Chakra of the Genjutsu was suddenly released, surging around Kurenai. Normally, someone caught in this Genjutsu would see Kurenai disappear from the spot, and then be bound by a large tree.

But.

After Kurenai finished her attack, she was about to walk over to Hinata and defeat her when she noticed Hinata looking at her strangely.

"Huh?"

Kurenai was taken aback, then exclaimed in surprise, "You weren't affected by my Genjutsu? Impossible, your mental strength is absolutely no match for this level of Genjutsu!"

"Eh? Teacher, did you use an illusion?" Hinata asked cutely.

Gaa!

Kurenai was stunned by these words, feeling as if she had suffered a thousand points of damage. She exclaimed in surprise, "How is this possible? How can your mental strength be so strong? It shouldn't be like this."

Kurenai couldn't figure it out, but since the Genjutsu wasn't working, there were other ways, after all, she was Jonin.

So she flashed and quickly rushed into the bushes next to her. Immediately afterwards, a large number of Kunai the bushes and flew rapidly towards Hinata.

[Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm!]

Bang!

The powerful Chakra condensed into a shockwave, instantly blasting the Kunai away and easily breaking their Kunai.

"This!"

Kurenai stared at Hinata in surprise from the bushes. She never expected that Hinata would become so powerful after she returned from her mission, even mastering ranged abilities.

It's important to know that the Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm is an extremely difficult skill for the Hyuga Clan to learn. Even within the Hyuga Clan, very few people have mastered it. But now...

Looking at Hinata after she finished using the Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm, and seeing her silly look, Kurenai felt a headache coming on.

"I didn't expect her to grow so quickly in just one month. Could someone be teaching her? That must be it. Hinata couldn't possibly do this on her own. Who could it be?"

Kurenai Liu Mei slightly, pondering who was so capable as to have trained Hinata to be so strong, but after a moment's thought, she couldn't recall who it was.

Shaking her head, Kurenai decided to ask Hinata later. The most important thing now was to defeat Hinata, since some of the three minutes had already passed, and if it dragged on any longer, Hinata would lose.

"Looks like I need to get serious. As Jonin, even in close combat, I'm not Genin can withstand, not even Hyuga Clan, so..."

Kurenai's figure flashed, and she rushed towards Hinata in a blur.

"Hinata, I will defeat you where you are most proud, and make you understand the vast gap between your best close combat skills and those of Jonin." Kurenai said as she moved rapidly.

These words made Hinata take it seriously. Hinata had lost her sense of her own strength. Although she felt she had improved a lot, Naruto could always point out her shortcomings.

Therefore, Hinata wasn't very confident in her own strength, so when she saw Kurenai charging towards her, Hinata immediately decided to use her special move.

[Eight Trigrams Palm - Rotation!]

Whoosh!

A terrifying amount of Chakra condensed into a circle, spinning rapidly like a Hinata around Hinata, creating large-scale energy fluctuations and Chakra.

And at the moment when the Rotation complete.

Kurenai rushed into the attack range, and then, to everyone's astonishment, this powerful Jonin was struck by the Rotation.

Bang!

Kurenai tumbled and flew backward, rolling several times on the ground before finally coming to a stop. She was completely disoriented from the fall, but even so, it couldn't diminish the horror in her heart.

You have to understand, that's the Rotation, the strongest technique of the Hyuga Clan. And such a technique actually appeared on Hinata. The key is that the Rotation Technique has a very large range and its power is even more formidable.

This Jonin was defeated in one blow, a defeat that was completely unexpected. This result left her stunned, feeling as if something was wrong with how she left home today.

"Hinata... Hinata, you actually learned Rotation? There aren't many people in the entire Hyuga Clan who have learned Rotation, your talent is truly outstanding." Kurenai said in disbelief.

"It's all thanks to Naruto's excellent teaching. Otherwise, someone as slow as me wouldn't have been able to learn so quickly," Hinata said with a hint of admiration.

"Naruto was a good teacher?"

Kurenai was taken aback, then said in disbelief, "Impossible. He's from the Uzumaki Clan, how could he possibly know about the Rotation? You don't need to put all the credit on him."

Kurenai struggled to her feet, shocked by Hinata's strength, but completely disbelieving that this was Naruto's instruction.

"It really was Naruto who taught me. I even have all the analyses Naruto wrote about the Rotation."

Hinata was unhappy when she saw that Kurenai didn't believe it was Naruto's doing. After all, Naruto was very important to her, and she didn't want Naruto to look Naruto.

So she took out a notebook from her ninja tool bag, a notebook with Kaguya Otsutsuki drawn on it, and handed it to Kurenai to look at.

"An analysis of the Rotation?"

Kurenai took the notebook with some skepticism, glanced at Kaguya Otsutsuki's image on it, and wondered who this person was, but the contents of the notebook were more important.

So she opened her notebook.

What came into view were vigorous and powerful characters, flowing smoothly as if the writer had written them with great ease and speed. But these characters were very beautiful, much better than her own writing.

"The handwriting is nice, but I wonder about the content."

Kurenai admired the characters, finding Naruto's handwriting beautiful, but she still didn't believe he could guide Naruto in Hinata Rotation.

Only.

As she carefully read the contents, the disbelief on her face gradually faded, and her expression became increasingly serious and solemn, until finally only horror remained in her eyes.

"The analysis is so thorough, there are many aspects that I couldn't even have imagined. Did Naruto really write this?" Kurenai asked in disbelief.

"Of course, Naruto is the strongest, now you believe me, right?" Hinata said with a smile as she took back the notebook.

"I believe it now. I never imagined Naruto was so amazing. It's unbelievable."

Although Kurenai still had some doubts, Hinata had presented evidence, leaving her with no choice but to believe her.

"Then, Kurenai- sensei, from this day forward I will retire from the ninja ranks. Thank you for taking care of me during this time," Hinata said gratefully, bowing deeply.

"Sigh, what a pity, but you can learn more from Naruto, which is also a way."

Kurenai still felt a little regretful, but she could see that Hinata's mind was made up, so she couldn't force her to stay.

But she became very curious about Naruto and decided to find time to visit Naruto and investigate his background.

Whoosh!

A figure flew swiftly from afar, appearing extremely urgent.

"Kurenai- sensei, something's happened!" Shino Aburame rushed over and said hurriedly.

"What happened?" Kurenai asked quickly.

"It's Kiba Inuzuka's puppy, Akamaru; it's been poisoned," Shino Aburame replied.

Poisoning?

"Yes, he's been poisoned, and he's gotten as fat as a pig." Shino Aburame nodded.

"Huh? Fat like a pig?"

Kurenai and Hinata were taken aback, the image of Akamaru as a pig flashing through their minds, and their expressions instantly became somewhat strange.

But.

Hinata thought of the little fox at home, and seeing its chubby body, she vaguely understood something.
