"Alright, that concludes today's training."
Uya stood in front of Hinata, and as Hinata attacked, he gently grasped her wrist and nodded slightly to her.
Unlike Uya Hyuga Hiashi and the others, who, even with their Byakugan, couldn't clearly see a person's physical strength or the extent of their physical endurance, Uya could clearly perceive what level of training was most suitable.
"Yes."
Hinata breathed a sigh of relief, withdrew her small hand in a graceful gesture, and then gave Uya a cute smile.
Now, she basically has no sense of awe or reverence for Uya anymore. In fact, she feels that Uya treats her better than her father Hyuga Hiashi.
This also helped her gradually emerge from the grief of her father's death.
Moreover, in the past few days, Hinata has noticed that when she goes out, almost every member of the Hyuga Clan will respectfully bow to her and call her Hinata -sama".
Although it was the same when her father, Hyuga Hiashi, was alive, she could now clearly feel that the Hyuga Clan members respected her even more than when Hyuga Hiashi was alive.
Gate of Opening, Uya walked out of his training room, followed by Hinata, Uya changed her shoes and walked out into the courtyard.
Uya only Hyuga Clan's residence when he is instructing Hinata in her training. At Uya's current speed, he can travel between Amegakure and Konoha in less than a moment.
Despite this, almost all the ninjas in the Hyuga Clan knew of Uya's existence, though there were exceptions, such as Neji Hyuga, who was studying at the Ninja Academy.
Just as Uya was about to take Hinata home, he happened to run into Neji Hyuga and his son Hizashi Hyuga.
Neji was momentarily stunned when he saw Uya.
He could clearly see that Uya's eyes were very ordinary eyes, not the Byakugan. In fact, every member of the Hyuga Clan is born with the Byakugan, with almost no exceptions.
In other words, Uya is not a member of the Hyuga Clan, so why is she appearing among the Hyuga Clan, and... she seems to be with Hinata?
Just as he was wondering, he saw his father, Hizashi Hyuga, change his expression slightly and bow to Uya.
" Lord Uya."
Neji Hyuga was completely bewildered by his father Hizashi Hyuga's gesture of bowing; he was utterly confused.
After Hizashi Hyuga bowed to Uya, he saw Neji standing there in a daze and immediately shouted at him, " Neji, quickly bow! This is Lord Uya!"
"Uh... Lord Uya."
Although Neji didn't understand the situation, he still listened to his father and bowed to Uya. At the same time, he felt that the name Uya seemed somewhat familiar.
Uya's gaze swept past Hizashi Hyuga, then fell on Neji Hyuga with interest. Without saying a word, he led Hinata past him.
Watching Uya's retreating figure, Neji Hyuga was filled with questions.
Watching Uya and Hinata's figures gradually disappear at the end of the alley, Neji Hyuga finally couldn't help but ask Hizashi Hyuga beside him, "Father, why did you bow to that person? He's clearly not from our Hyuga Clan..."
Neji, shut up!
Hizashi Hyuga was startled by Neji Hyuga's words and rebuked him without hesitation. Then, looking at Neji Hyuga with utmost seriousness, he said, " Neji, remember this: you must never be disrespectful to that person!"
Neji was startled by Hizashi Hyuga's expression and actions, and stood there for a moment, his face showing a look of great surprise and uncertainty. It was the first time he had ever seen Hizashi Hyuga with such an expression.
"Father, who exactly is he...?"
Seeing Neji's expression, Hizashi Hyuga took a deep breath, softened his tone, but still spoke in a very heavy and serious manner, "You just called out that person's name, don't you think of it yet?"
A confused expression appeared on Neji Hyuga's small face.
Lord Uya... Uya... Could it be?!
As if he had just thought of something, Neji Hyuga suddenly widened his eyes, a look of near disbelief on his face.
Even though he was just a student at the Ninja Academy, he had heard of Uya's legend.
However, because Uya looked so young, even much younger than his father, he couldn't connect Uya with those legends at all.
"Father, could it be that he is...?"
"That's right, he is the one who stands at the very pinnacle of all ninjas."
At this point, Hizashi Hyuga recalled the terrifying pressure that Uya's aura had exerted on him a few days ago, and a look of awe appeared on his Jonin as he said, "The one revered as a legend... the God of the Shinobi World!"
These words made Neji Hyuga take a deep breath, his face still showing an almost incredulous expression. He simply couldn't believe that Uya, who just looked so unapproachable, younger than his father, and like an ordinary person, was actually the legendary God of the Shinobi World!
"Father..."
" Neji." Hizashi Hyuga interrupted Neji with an extremely solemn look, saying, "I know what you want to ask. You don't need to know whether those legends about him are true or not. You only need to know that his existence is a legend in itself, and that's enough!"
Hizashi Hyuga's words greatly shook Neji Hyuga. Although he still couldn't believe it, Hizashi Hyuga's expression and words left him no choice but to believe it.
A few days ago, the Hyuga Branch Family ganged up to bully Hinata Hyuga Main Family. Naturally, Hizashi Hyuga couldn't bring himself to tell his son about this.
Time flies, and almost two years have passed in the blink of an eye.
In the past two years, Uya has occasionally entered and exited Konoha, but few people have been able to see Uya. Uya does not want to be seen, and if he conceals his aura, it is difficult to notice him, as he Uya just like an ordinary person.
However, although not many people in Konoha knew that Uya often appeared in the Hyuga Clan, those within the Hyuga Clan and Konoha's high-ranking officials, such as Hiruzen Sarutobi, did know.
Therefore, despite the heavy losses suffered by the Hyuga Clan, they were not oppressed in Konoha. The Konoha High Command's policy towards the Hyuga Clan had changed from suppression to appeasement.
As for the Hyuga Clan's internal affairs, management was handled by Hyuga Hiashi, the Hizashi Hyuga, while Hinata's grandfather provided some supervision and assistance.
In the past, Hizashi Hyuga had shown murderous intent towards Hinata during training and was punished by Hyuga Hiashi the Caged Bird Seal. However, now he no longer harbors any hatred towards Hinata, or rather, almost everyone in the Hyuga Clan treats Hinata, this young lady, with utmost respect.
He was even more respectful than when Hyuga Hiashi was alive.
" Hinata- sama."
Hinata walked along the road, members of the Hyuga Clan would occasionally bow respectfully to her.
Soon, she arrived at the place of cultivation. As soon as she entered the courtyard, she saw a familiar figure sitting on the wooden steps of the corridor. (To be continued.)
