Konoha: Starting with the Tenseigan and Taking Over Team 7

That gesture was not a hand seal.

It was—

A flick to the forehead?!

Samui froze. Was that some kind of hand seal he had invented?

She certainly did not believe

that a Konoha Ninja would try to face Lord Raikage, the fastest man in the Shinobi World, with Taijutsu.

The next instant,

Aogetsu Hyuga's hand moved.

His finger snapped forward, unleashing the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit in an instant.

Bzzz!

A piercing hum rang out.

But not one of them dared take their eyes off Aogetsu Hyuga's technique.

They saw it.

They saw a burst of white light.

The first burst of momentum was the strongest; each attempt after that would only weaken.

Now

it was Samui and the surrounding Kumogakure Ninja's turn to stare in astonishment.

As far as they knew,
