Both Ko Hyuga and Hinata Hyuga were stunned.
Neither of them could figure out what Ye Fan was planning.
After a brief silence, Ko Hyuga asked,
"What do you want me to do?"
Seeing the wary look on his face, Ye Fan smiled faintly and explained,
"I want you to cooperate with some tests to help Hinata create a Gentle Fist suited to her."
"What?"
Ko Hyuga thought he had misheard.
Create a Gentle Fist? Was this a joke? Did he think the Gentle Fist could be created so casually?
Disdain appeared on his face, but before he could speak, Ye Fan's voice rang out again.
"You can doubt it, but don't discourage Hinata's enthusiasm! Shouldn't you reflect on why Hinata didn't ask you for help?"
That simple sentence stunned Ko Hyuga once more.
That was right.
Why hadn't the young lady asked him for help?
Why had she instead sought guidance from an outsider who did not even possess chakra?
"For many things, the process matters more than the result! If you don't want to help, then step aside."
Ye Fan spoke again.
At that moment, doubt flashed through Ko Hyuga's mind. Could this kid be trying to help the young lady regain her confidence?
Was this so-called creation of a suitable Gentle Fist merely an excuse?
"How do you want me to help?"
Ko Hyuga was not asking because he believed Ye Fan. He merely wanted to do something for Hinata Hyuga.
"I need you to undergo some tests to prove that my theory isn't baseless."
After a pause, Ye Fan added, "But I should warn you, this may be a little painful. If you're unwilling, I can ask my younger brother Kiba to help."
Ko Hyuga frowned. He felt that this kid was looking down on him
