He rapidly Hand Seals, and two Shadow Clone appeared beside him.
A violent surge of wind-style Chakra gathered wildly in Naruto's palm, accompanied by a piercing tearing sound.
A Chakra ball spinning at high speed like Shuriken instantly took shape.
" Wind Release: Rasenshuriken!" Naruto proudly held up the ball of light that radiated terrifying power.
He has already developed this S-rank Ninjutsu, preparing to give Xin a huge surprise.
However, Xin looked at the Rasenshuriken and just chuckled dismissively.
"That's all you have to offer? Too little."
Xin slowly raised his right hand, without needing any Shadow Clone to assist him, and flipped his hand over.
boom!
A burst of wind-style Chakra, more than ten times more violent than Naruto's, erupted instantly.
The ear-piercing sonic boom echoed throughout the practice area.
A giant Rasenshuriken, several times larger than Naruto's Rasenshuriken, instantly materialized in Xin's palm!
The terrifying tearing sensation caused the surrounding air to visibly distort.
Naruto stared wide-eyed at the massive Rasenshuriken in Shin's hand, his pupils dilating violently.
"This... this is impossible! You've never even seen it before, how could you use the Ninjutsu I just developed! And it's so big!"
Naruto was so shocked that he couldn't even maintain his Ninjutsu, and it collapsed.
Xin casually dispersed the Ninjutsu in his hand. He had long sensed that the Nine-Tails inside Naruto had been acting according to his instructions from back then.
He diligently provided Naruto with Chakra, which is why Naruto's outburst just now didn't cause him to go berserk.
Naruto swallowed hard, completely convinced.
He rubbed his swollen cheek and muttered, "Brother Xin, you're a monster."
"But it's alright, Jiraiya- sensei said he'll be taking me to Mount Myōboku to train in Senjutsu soon."
"Once I learn Senjutsu, I'll definitely surpass you!"
Xin was slightly surprised. It seemed that because of her intervention, Naruto's journey to Mount Myōboku was much earlier than in the original story.
"Alright, test complete." Xin clapped his hands. "Weren't you going to treat me to ramen? Let's go."
Afterwards, the two went to Ichiraku Ramen.
The steaming hot ramen was served, and Naruto's stomach rumbled as he looked at the tempting noodles.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, a piercing pain shot through his swollen cheek.
"Ouch... it hurts... I can't open my mouth..." Naruto scratched his head in frustration.
Xin sat beside him, smiling and saying with concern, "Oh dear, how can you not eat when you're injured? Here, let me feed you."
As he spoke, Xin picked up his chopsticks and scooped up a large clump of piping hot ramen.
With his other hand, he ruthlessly pried open Naruto's swollen mouth, which was difficult to open, and stuffed the ramen noodles into it.
"Waaaaah... It's so hot..."
Naruto burst into tears and struggled desperately, but Shin held him firmly in his seat.
Watching this scene from behind the counter, Ayame's eyes twitched violently, and she silently sighed in her heart: Naruto, you're so pitiful.
Inside Ichiraku Ramen, billowing white steam rose continuously.
Uchiha Xin sat on a high stool, holding a large bowl bigger than his face, and drank the last mouthful of delicious noodle soup in one gulp.
"Happy."
He put down the porcelain bowl, grabbed a tissue to wipe his mouth, and let out a satisfied sigh.
Beside him, Naruto Uzumaki was lying miserably on the table.
Naruto's face, which already had a somewhat silly look, was now swollen like a pig's head.
His eyes were bruised and purple, barely visible as slits, and the nosebleed had stopped.
But his nose was swollen high, and his mouth had several large cuts. Even his breathing was heavy and labored.
Just now, Uchiha Xin's merciless force-feeding of scalding ramen had burned Naruto's mouth, leaving it bright red.
Now he can't even utter a complete sentence; he can only let out weak sobs.
"Waaaaah..."
Naruto covered his swollen cheek, his eyes filled with grievance and accusation, looking like a stray dog being bullied by a bully.
Uchiha Xin turned his head, looked at Naruto, and smiled happily.
He raised his hand and patted Naruto's shoulder heavily.
Eat more, you need to grow.
Naruto shuddered from the slap, tears welling in his eyes from the pain, but he didn't dare utter a single word of protest.
Uchiha Xin stood up with satisfaction and casually pulled out a few banknotes, slapping them on the counter.
"Boss, the bill, please."
He ignored Naruto, who was in excruciating pain beside him, and put his hands in his pockets.
He strolled leisurely out of the ramen shop and headed straight for the Hyuga Clan's Earth Flow.
The streets of Konoha were bustling with people, and the early summer breeze felt pleasant on their faces.
Uchiha Xin arrived at the gates of the Hyuga Clan without any obstacles.
Two Hyuga clan members Hyuga guard spotted Uchiha Xin.
He immediately straightened his back and bowed respectfully.
" Lord Xin, you've arrived."
Uchiha Xin nodded slightly and strode into the Hyuga Clan Compound.
He crossed the courtyard with practiced ease and went directly to the Hyuga Clan's most central meeting room.
The atmosphere in the spacious, antique-style conference room was exceptionally solemn.
The head of the Hyuga Clan, Hyuga Hiashi, sat solemnly in the main seat.
Beside him, three gray-haired elders Hyuga the Hyuga clan sat upright, but their eyes revealed an undisguised urgency.
On the other side of Hiashi, Hinata Hyuga was kneeling obediently.
Upon seeing Uchiha Xin open the door and enter, the eyes of the three elders instantly lit up, like hungry wolves spotting fresh meat.
The Grand Elder skipped the pleasantries and went straight to the Gate of Opening.
" Lord Xin, you're finally back."
The elder's voice trembled slightly with excitement.
"Two years ago you said you had a way to bring about the ultimate transformation of the Hyuga Clan's Byakugan."
"Now that you've returned, I wonder when you'll be able to help Hinata evolve that legendary Tenseigan?"
The Second Elder and the Third Elder stared intently at Uchiha Xin, their breathing becoming heavy.
Tenseigan!
That was a supreme divine object recorded in the ancient texts of the Hyuga Clan, the ultimate power surpassing even the Byakugan.
For the Hyuga elders, who valued their bloodline and Dōjutsu more than their own lives, this temptation was simply irresistible.
Uchiha Xin walked to the conference table and casually pulled out a chair to sit down.
His gaze swept over the three anxious elders, his tone calm yet exuding absolute confidence.
What's the rush?
Uchiha Xin leaned back in his chair, his fingers lightly tapping the table.
"Since I promised you, I will never go back on my word. I have made all the necessary preparations."
Upon hearing this, the three elders trembled violently. They exchanged glances, each seeing the fervor and excitement in the other's eyes.
"Very good!"
The elder was so excited that he slapped his thigh hard, and the veins on his hand bulged out.
" The Hyuga Clan is finally about to usher in true glory!"
