Hinata had been with Liu Chen for about a year and a half, but in that year and a half... it was strange to say, Hinata had never seen Liu Chen truly make a full move. The few times he did act, it was merely flicking Iruka away and stunning Hiashi Hyuga with lightning. And his speed of action was incredibly fast. So fast that Hinata only just saw a hand extend... and then nothing. Everything returned to calm. The only two times he acted were very brief, and Hinata couldn't even clearly see what happened before it was all over, so fast it was astonishing. This was her first time seeing Guardian Spirit Brother act slowly.

"Lightning Strike..." Only a voice resembling a demonic whisper was heard. Immediately after, a dazzling flash of light suddenly appeared. Hinata watched in astonishment as there hadn't been a single dark cloud in the sky, yet a purple lightning bolt, out of nowhere, fiercely struck down! The purple lightning was incredibly thick, almost covering an area of twenty meters in all directions. The blinding light made her eyes involuntarily squint. A deafening roar echoed in her ears. "Rumble—!!" It made little Hinata's eardrums ring. The purple lightning engulfed all the corpses within, and terrifying electric arcs snaked across the ground. Even the thinnest arc... looked as thick as an arm, which was astonishing. "Sizzle-zizzle-zizzle..." "Sizzle-zizzle-zizzle..." "Sizzle..." "..." The strange sounds of the flickering electric arcs, accompanied by a smell of burnt things, made the scene before her seem incredibly eerie and unpredictable. This didn't look like a Lightning-style Ninjutsu at all, because she hadn't seen Liu Chen form any hand signs. And Hinata hadn't seen any Chakra fluctuations either. This meant... Guardian Spirit Brother, he can... he can control the lightning in the sky?! This was a bit too unbelievable, wasn't it?! Could it be a Bloodline Limit? But in the ninja world... is there such a strange Bloodline Limit?

When all the wandering electric arcs dissipated, the scene before her eyes was revealed. The ground, previously covered with corpses, had already become a giant crater. A giant, charred crater. The crater's diameter was at least twenty to thirty meters. The depth seemed to be... at least ten meters, right?! "So... so terrifyingly powerful. Guardian Spirit Brother's move, isn't it already as strong as Father's?! And it seemed so effortless, as if he hadn't consumed anything, perhaps... perhaps he didn't even use thirty percent of his strength." Hinata's small face bore a hint of shock. Liu Chen had only said two words, and hadn't even performed any ninja hand signs. Immediately after, a massive lightning bolt fell. An area of twenty to thirty meters... everything turned to ash! In fact, her guess wasn't wrong. Liu Chen truly hadn't used even thirty percent of his strength. If he had really unleashed a "Raikiri" on Konoha Village, he could have directly destroyed the entire village. And the number of people who would survive would definitely not exceed ten. Plus, the power of the Goro Goro no Mi (Rumble-Rumble Fruit). It wasn't just about electricity... how could Liu Chen not understand the principle of electricity generating magnetism?! So, with the Goro Goro no Mi's ability, he not only possessed the power to control lightning. He even possessed the power to control magnetism! If he used 100% of his power, that terrifying, peerless destructive force was simply beyond what little Hinata could imagine...

In truth, in the Naruto world, if you just ignore the Ōtsutsuki clan, Liu Chen could wipe out all of humanity in this world. Excluding the Ōtsutsuki clan... the strength of Naruto's world was just that. Although still very powerful, it was still a bit distant from Liu Chen. But as soon as the opponent activated Six Paths Sage Mode, things became a bit tricky. That was like a tenfold increase in power. It was completely a cheat-like ability. Whenever Liu Chen thought of this, he wished he could transmigrate back to Earth and kill that old rascal Kishimoto for not properly controlling the power system, resulting in the entire system collapsing in the later stages. Of course, this thought had just arisen when Liu Chen dismissed it. He hadn't even conquered the Naruto world yet, let alone returning to reality. That was completely unrealistic, alright!?

Hinata, by a clear river, washed the blood from her hands. Looking at her reflection in the water, she couldn't help but murmur, "A year and a half has passed. The change is quite significant!" Even she herself had to admit that her transformation was truly immense. And all of this had to be attributed to Liu Chen's guidance. If not for Guardian Spirit Brother's guidance... she might still be bullied by those three brats right now. Guardian Spirit Brother... could be said to be the one who changed my destiny! A faint, gentle, and sweet smile appeared on her face. The negative emotions in Hinata's heart, caused by her first kill, gradually began to dissipate significantly.

"Let's go... back to the village." Watching Hinata skip towards Konoha Village, her demeanor suggested she had emerged from the psychological shadow of killing. Liu Chen couldn't help but smile faintly. This girl's growth was truly fast enough. It was also time to teach her real Taijutsu. After all, her physical foundation was thoroughly laid. Those ordinary training exercises would no longer be of much use if continued. He hadn't expected that his first disciple, the disciple who would inherit his mantle... would actually be Hinata Hyuga. Before transmigrating to the Naruto world, Liu Chen had considered taking a disciple when he was sixty or seventy. He hadn't expected to already have a female disciple at only 26.

"Recently, I feel like my power has increased a little..." Liu Chen's face showed a thoughtful expression as he looked at the innocent-looking Hinata. In his mindscape, he clenched his fist. He pondered, murmuring, "Could it be... Hinata's growth can bring me an amplification of power?!"
