Chapter 259 The Unavoidable Showdown

Chapter 259: The inevitable confrontation.
Eight trigrams sixty-four palms·two palms!

With his mind filled with rage, Neji Hyuga immediately launched an attack mixed with chakra towards Hinata Hyuga.

Snapped!Snapped!
The next second, Hyuga Neji, who had originally planned to use all sixty-four palms in one breath, looked at Hyuga Hinata with disbelief who had casually deflected his attack.

That's right, he didn't block it, but directly bounced off the palm that was pushing towards him with a force that surprised Hyuga Neji.

The powerful force not only deflected the attack, but also caused Hyuga Neji's fist stance to be out of shape, leaving the middle door wide open.

Then Hyuga Neji looked at Hyuga Hinata in front of him and stretched out a finger towards his abdomen, a finger that was condensed with chakra visible to the naked eye.

Acupuncture?!

How can this be? !
puff!
The next second, the finger pierced Hyuga Neji's abdomen at a speed that Hyuga Neji could not react to, and a stream of blood spurted out.

Hyuga Neji's legs suddenly went weak, and with that little force he sat down on the ground.

"This is impossible!" Hyuga Neji, who was sitting on the ground, had his eyes full of disbelief.

He couldn't believe that he lost the game so easily.

After all, a few months ago, he had taught Miss Hinata in front of him a lesson and made her miserable.

Although he had murderous intent during that training, he was severely punished by the clan leader Rizu using a caged bird.

But it also has its advantages. After all, the clan will not let you waste time practicing with other people anymore.

Although during this period I heard people say that Miss Hinata seemed to be changing.

But how could it be possible for that cowardly Miss Hinata to become so strong in just a few months?

"Why not?" Hyuga Hinata asked Hyuga Neji.

"Why is that possible!" Hyuga Neji really couldn't accept it at this moment.

After all, acceptance means denying his own efforts.

If I were easily defeated by an unenlightened loser, then all my hard training over the years would be meaningless.

"Brother Neji, this is really ugly." Hyuga Hinata suddenly sighed and said.

"What's so ugly?" Hyuga Neji asked subconsciously.

"Brother Neji, as the saying goes, family disgrace should not be made public, and conflicts within the family should not be exposed. So you should have withdrawn from this competition at the beginning. This is not to give way to the main family, but to preserve the reputation of the Hyuga clan.

But not only did you not care about the family's reputation, you also acted like a shrew who couldn't stand losing, and threw him out of the village. Is it so difficult to accept failure? Or is it that you just can't accept being defeated by me?

In fact, no matter who wins or loses in a fight between the main and branch families of the Hyuga clan, the Hyuga clan will lose. The only difference is that if you lose, it is natural, but if I lose, it will bring shame to the main family, and this is probably what you want.

But even if you win and bring shame to the clan, what practical significance does it have to you? Will you be able to take off your forehead protector and hold your head up high in the future, or will you be appreciated by someone?
If not, what does this battle mean to you? Just to bully me? Or to vent the anger that has been pent up in your heart? You haven't learned any of the excellent qualities of your teacher Might Guy. "

Hyuga Hinata couldn't help but shook her head when she said this.

"Enough!" After hearing this, Hyuga Neji became even more angry and embarrassed.

After all, he believed that the hatred in his heart could not be understood by Hinata Hyuga who was preaching to him.

But what they didn't know was that Hyuga Hinata not only understood it, but also had a deep understanding of it.

You should know that Xue Ji's mother was killed by her fiancé Yue Dan.

Although it was a little different, she could really understand the hatred in Hyuga Neji's heart.

It’s a pity that Hyuga Neji is too inexperienced, and he doesn’t even know who his enemy is.

He has always stubbornly believed that it was his family that forced his father to death, but he did not expect that if there was no external pressure, a dignified thousand-year-old family would be forced to use the life and body of the patriarch's own brother in exchange for peace.

There may indeed be a weak side to Hinata Hiashi, but when a person carries the responsibility of an entire family, weakness proves that he is truly considering the family.

If he had really risked his life and insisted on confronting the village, it would have proved that Hinata Hiashi was not a qualified clan leader.

However, Hinata Hyuga couldn't say these words to Neji Hyuga here.

In fact, her previous remarks had already caused many people to frown secretly.

At least when Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Hyuga Hinata off the field, his eyes were unusually deep.

I was wrong!
I’m really old!
Was that a test of something?

But this little girl's thinking is a bit dangerous!
Not only has he not learned the Will of Fire, but he only has narrow-minded family values. After the Chunin selection is over, it seems necessary to promote him to Chunin and let him lead the team alone.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's thoughts were changing rapidly in the stands, but Gekkou Gale had already announced the winner of the match.

After all, Hyuga Neji couldn't stand up, but Gekko Gale could still see it.

Back in the stands, watching the match between Rock Lee and Gaara below, Hinata Hyuga shook her head secretly.

Sarutobi Hiruzen did have a way of dying.

Why arrange Rock Lee to fight Gaara? Isn't it just to let Rock Lee test the strength of the Sand Village's Jinchūriki?

Even if the disciple who was to inherit Might Guy's mantle died here, it is estimated that when Might Guy attacks the Sand Village later, he will become extremely violent for revenge.

Is it because he is a civilian ninja with no background that he can be so reckless in his calculations?

So arrogant!
But Might Guy, a fool, probably didn't realize such a disgusting plan.

This is probably another reason why Kakashi stopped Might Guy from rescuing Sarutobi Hiruzen during the third assessment.

Even though Kakashi Hatake looks like a lazy fish, he still has a temper. Do you really think he won't be indifferent?

"Ahhh!"

Accompanied by miserable screams, Rock Lee had some bones of his left hand and left foot crushed by Gaara's sand, just like in the original work.

Bang!
After a loud explosion dispersed the gathered sand, Might Guy appeared on the scene and saved his own disciple.

As the medical team came on stage and began to examine Rock Lee, the expression of the medical jonin in charge of the examination immediately became serious.

"You are the leader of this child, right?" The medical jonin looked up and asked Might Guy.

"Yes, I am!" Might Guy answered. "Please follow me." The medical jonin said immediately.

Might Guy, sensing something strange, followed immediately.

"Although we managed to keep him breathing, he has suffered shattered bones all over his body and many of his muscles are torn. I think it will take a long time for him to recover, but that's fine.

But his left hand and left foot were seriously injured, really too bad, and although I hate to say it, I'm afraid he can no longer live as a ninja."

After hearing this, Might Guy and Uzumaki Naruto beside him were stunned.

Even tears appeared in Might Guy's eyes.

"It's too early to cry, Might Jounin!" A voice sounded softly from behind Might Guy.

"You are Miss Hinata." Might Guy turned around and saw the little girl who had appeared behind him at some point.

"Might Jonin, I also heard what the medical Jonin said, but what he said only represents himself, because he is only at that level. It does not represent others. Do you understand what I mean?" Hyuga Hinata continued softly.

"Ms. Hinata, are you saying that Li can still be saved?" Might Guy asked excitedly at this moment.

"Might Jonin, haven't you heard that our Hyuga clan is now transforming from reconnaissance ninjas to medical ninjas? We, the Hyuga clan, have greater advantages than any medical ninjas, because no injury can escape our eyes." Hyuga Hinata said, pointing to her own eyes.

"Really? That's great." Might Guy said with joy as if he had been saved from a desperate situation.

"I just took a look at your disciple's injuries. They are very serious. Even the elite medical jonin are not sure. If our Hyuga clan does not take action, then if you want to cure him, I guess you can only ask Lady Tsunade, one of the Three Ninjas, to create a miracle." Hyuga Hinata said slowly.

"Then can I ask you, Miss Hinata?" Although Might Guy did not have much political wisdom, he was not stupid. He naturally understood what Hinata Hyuga meant by saying this, so he spoke without hesitation.

As for Princess Tsunade mentioned in the previous words, how could Might Guy not know that she had left the village for many years.

If you want to find it suddenly, you don't know where to go. This is a typical case of distant water cannot put out nearby fire.

"Of course, our Hyuga clan is very willing to make friends with elites like Might Jonin." Hyuga Hinata replied with a smile on her face.

Although the conversation between Hinata Hyuga and Might Guy was not loud, many people in the stands heard it.

Especially Kakashi who had already come down.

Although he wanted to say something, after opening his mouth slightly, he was unable to utter any words.

In fact, Kakashi knew what it meant for Might Guy to agree to Hinata Hyuga in such public.

Perhaps Matka himself did not quite understand that in the eyes of some people, his actions were tantamount to naked betrayal.

It is estimated that when Hyuga Neji and Rock Lee recover from their injuries and return to the team, there will be many difficult tasks waiting for them in the future.

But Kakashi couldn't remind him, after all, Rock Lee was like his own son to Might Guy.

So even if there was only a little hope, he couldn't stop Might Guy from seeking medical treatment from the Hyuga clan.

As for why Hinata Hyuga wanted to stand up and win over Might Guy at this moment, it was mainly to provoke Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Another purpose is to use the special case of Rock Lee to promote the Hyuga clan's reputation as a medical genius.

After all, Sarutobi Hiruzen has been stimulated. With the methods of this old silver man, the medical ninjas of Konoha Hospital are likely to treat Rock Lee at all costs before the Hyuga clan takes over Rock Lee.

According to Hinata Hyuga's estimation, Rock Lee would not only not die, but he would also be disabled or even paralyzed.

Of course, these are not problems for Hinata Hyuga, but instead can help her become famous.

After all, without comparison, it is impossible to highlight who is better.

As for Sarutobi Hiruzen not being stimulated, that doesn't matter.

Anyway, Hinata Hyuga's main purpose is to make the Hyuga clan famous and to win over Might Guy. As for the others, they are just a shot in the dark and it doesn't matter whether they can succeed or not.

After a brief interlude, it was the final match between Choji Akimichi and Toss Anvil.

This was almost a terrible battle.

However, before the Akimichi clan practiced the multiplication technique to the whole body, they did not have any good way of attack. Who told them to just focus on storing fat and not think about other practices?

When Akimichi Choji was defeated, the 2.5 qualifying games were finally over.

With the announcement of the time for the third test, it was time for the draw.

Hinata Hyuga felt that if they were divided into groups according to the electronic screen just now, the possibility of her facing Gaara would be extremely high.

Fortunately, the third test is different from the additional preliminaries, so even Sarutobi Hiruzen cannot easily make changes.

This is also why the qualifiers rely on so-called random draws, while the main competitions rely on direct drawing of lots using slips of paper.

When Hinata Hyuga took the note out of the box and opened it, the corner of her eyes twitched slightly.

Because the number she drew was 1, the person who got number 2 not far away was none other than Uzumaki Naruto.

"Hahaha, you still can't avoid it." Li De, who was far away on the moon, got a reply from Hinata Hyuga and immediately laughed.

"Sid, is it so funny?" Claire didn't quite understand why Reed was laughing so happily.

"Not really, I just feel a bit fatalistic. After all, I reminded Hinata to stand on the far left and draw the first lot. And she drew number 1, which belongs to Uzumaki Naruto.

I thought that after this disruption, I would face other people, but I didn't expect Uzumaki Naruto to draw number 2. "Li De couldn't mention the powerful plot of the original work, so he could only use fatalism instead.

"Although Hyuga Neji was defeated by Uzumaki Naruto in another world line, it should be easy for Hinata to defeat Uzumaki Naruto if it were him." Alpha on the side said lightly.

"Well, as long as we don't provoke Uzumaki Naruto like we did to Hyuga Neji in another world line, it should be easier to win. Of course, even if he provokes us, it doesn't matter. At most, we will just show a little more strength." Li De agreed with this point.

Because in the third selection test, winning or losing is not actually important, the main thing is to use the Chunin test as a platform to showcase what you have learned.

Therefore, winning only means that the fighting ability is good, but it does not mean that one is qualified for the position of captain of the Chunin.

However, this did not make sense to Uzumaki Naruto. After all, in his mind, the only standard for being promoted to Chunin was probably winning.

Therefore, if you want to ensure victory and win beautifully, you need to think carefully about what means to use.

This is where adjustments need to be made on the spot when writing the script.
