"Honestly, just watch the matches. But something might happen later, so you two be careful." Otsutsuki Toneri pondered briefly, then smiled gently. The Konoha Crush Plan was imminent.
The entire venue would inevitably descend into chaos when it began.
Although the sisters were ninja and reasonably capable, they would not necessarily be safe then.
After some thought, Otsutsuki Toneri took Matatabi out of his robe and placed her in Hinata's arms. Matatabi obediently offered no objection.
After all, she spent every day nestled against Otsutsuki Toneri's chest and knew his affairs better than anyone.
"Huh? What a pretty kitty! But why does she have six tails?" Hanabi Hyuga's eyes lit up. Instantly forgetting what Otsutsuki Toneri had said, she looked at the dainty little Matatabi and exclaimed in delighted surprise.
But then she looked at the six tails behind Matatabi in confusion. Were there mutant cats, too?
"She's my summoned beast. Let her keep you company for now." Otsutsuki Toneri smiled. After five years, Matatabi's strength had reached an extremely high level.
Moreover, she had grown six tails...
Drinking his bloodline's blood every day, she had evolved to another level.
It was not just her strength. Her appearance was also undergoing constant, subtle changes. Her blue fur gradually grew paler, and the mysterious black markings on her body had begun to thin.
Overall, she looked countless times prettier than before. Her voice had also become increasingly clear and bright, unlike its former mature, resonant tone.
They chatted leisurely, while the two contestants gradually reached a decisive outcome. Neji Hyuga, the previous year's number one prodigy, lost to this year's dead last, Naruto Uzumaki!
It was not carelessness or underestimating his opponent. He had been utterly defeated!
"I really didn't expect Neji to lose to Naruto. Has Naruto gotten that strong?"
