A fist stopped an inch from him, and Hyuga Neji was looking at him calmly.
His defense had been broken.
Seeing this, a group of people stood there stunned. Even Sasuke's Great Fireball Jutsu couldn't break that defense, but a fist had broken through it.
"Gaara, please, for my sake, let it go this time," Neji said quietly.
Gaara's eyes were gloomy. He had already lost this fight.
If he continued, this guy would probably use Gentle Fist on him right away.
At such a close distance, he had no chance to dodge.
"Humph! Let's go!" Gaara said coldly, walking away with a dark face.
Temari and Kankuro immediately followed.
Around the corner, Gaara suddenly stopped: "Hyuga Neji, don't lose before you meet me in the Chunin exam."
After Gaara left, Neji's face instantly became serious. Gaara's fighting strength was too high. He had succeeded this time because Gaara was careless, but he wouldn't be so lucky next time.
"Has he already touched the edge of Jonin level?" Neji thought to himself, watching Gaara's departing figure.
"Um, that, thank you for saving me." Seeing Gaara retreat, Sakura stepped forward to thank him.
"It's nothing," Neji said.
At this time, having lost Gaara's control, Naruto and Sasuke also managed to break free from the sand's restraints.
"Heh, it seems this Chunin exam will be interesting," Sasuke said coolly.
"Yeah, yeah, this Chunin exam will be my stage, hahahaha..." Naruto chimed in.
This left Neji speechless. These two were too good at acting tough. They had almost been beaten to death just now, and now they had the confidence to say such things.
"You two shut up!" Sakura said angrily to the two of them.
This made Neji think a little. It seemed his arrival had caused some changes in this world.
But this was better, as he could put in less effort.
In the corner, Konohamaru and the others cautiously came out.
"Cough cough..." Sasuke coughed and then walked towards Neji.
"Hyuga Neji, I will definitely surpass you."
"Me too, me too, Uzumaki Naruto, who is destined to become Hokage in the future," Naruto said, jumping around.
Neji ignored them. These two were just pretending, especially Sasuke, who was deeply trapped in the art of acting.
However, Sakura was not bad, especially her super strength.
"Um, that, I'm Haruno Sakura, you can just call me Sakura," Sakura said bravely.
This made Naruto feel like he had been hit by ten million points of damage again.
Neji said calmly: "I look forward to fighting you in the Chunin exam."
"Hmph, I will defeat you," Sasuke said, looking up.
"Haha..." Neji didn't say anything and waved his hand as he left.
Uchiha Sasuke?
He hadn't even awakened the Sharingan yet, so he wouldn't pay any attention to him.
"Damn it!" Sasuke said angrily. When had the Uchiha Clan been looked down upon like this?!
At this moment, Sasuke's heart was filled with a desire for power.
After defeating Gaara, Neji returned to the barbecue restaurant, had a meal with everyone, and also received many rewards.
"Host accompanies Tenten to eat barbecue, reward obtained [Speed increased by 10%]."
"Tenten picks food for the host, reward obtained [Shuriken accuracy increased by 10%]."
"Hinata picks food for the host, reward obtained [Strength increased by 20%]."
After coming out of the barbecue restaurant, Neji was very happy.
One word - great!
This dinner not only improved many of his abilities, but also increased his feelings for Hinata and Tenten, which could be said to be a win-win-win.
It was already late at night.
After returning to the Hyuga clan's residence with Hinata, Neji went to the training ground, while Hinata returned home.
Hinata looked at the sky and was shocked: "Oh no, it's time for training."
Hyuga family training hall.
Hyuga Hiashi frowned: "Where's Hinata?!"
"Lord Hiashi, Lady Hinata has not returned yet!" said a Branch family member.
Hearing this, Hyuga Hiashi's face became even more ugly. Even the Branch family knew how to pursue progress, but Hinata, as the Main family heir, was so slack.
He glanced at Hanabi, who was sparring with someone nearby. Hyuga Hiashi felt that her taijutsu had improved a lot.
At this time, many Branch family members had been defeated by her. Hyuga Hiashi was very satisfied with this.
Thinking about Hinata again, she was not only timid but also didn't care about training.
"Alas, maybe Hinata is really not suitable to be the Main family heir," Hyuga Hiashi sighed.
"Father..."
Just then, a slightly anxious voice sounded, and Hinata rushed in.
"Hmph!" Hyuga Hiashi snorted: "Where have you been?"
"I, I..." Hinata stammered, not daring to speak.
If her father knew that she had gone to eat barbecue with everyone, she would be scolded again.
"Alas, come in and train." Hyuga Hiashi sighed. He had almost given up on this daughter.
"Yes, thank you, Father." Hinata hurriedly walked to the center of the field.
"Hanabi, go practice with your sister," Hyuga Hiashi said.
"Yes."
A moment later, Hinata was ready. Hanabi walked up to Hinata and whispered: "Sister, are you ready?"
"Yes, I'm ready."
The next moment, the two activated their Byakugan and fought together.
Because of Neji, Hinata and Hanabi's strength had improved very quickly, and many of their past shortcomings had been corrected.
Now, the two were fighting very fiercely, but Hinata was steadily gaining the upper hand.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The two palm strikes connected, with light blue Chakra swirling around them, like butterflies dancing.
Step!
Hanabi shot up and pounced towards Hinata.
"Eight Trigrams Thirty-Two Palms."
Hinata moved her feet slightly, dodged Hanabi's attack, and slashed a hand towards Hanabi.
"Oh no!"
Hanabi was shocked, but it was too late. Hinata's hand had already landed, and she knocked Hanabi to the ground with a palm.
This scene shocked Hyuga Hiashi.
"Not only has her attack speed increased, but her strength has also increased a little. Most importantly, she no longer hesitates."
Hyuga Hiashi's face became more and more serious and somewhat excited. Hinata's progress was too great.
"Hinata, I have something to ask you. Hanabi, you come too," Hyuga Hiashi said from outside the field.
He wanted to know the reason for their progress.
Hinata and Hanabi looked at each other and silently followed their father out.
At this moment, Neji had already returned home from the training ground and began to search for Ninjutsu scrolls.
Since he had decided to improve both his ninjutsu and body skills, he needed more ninjutsu.
Although the Hyuga clan was known throughout the ninja world for their Gentle Fist, it did not mean that they did not have Ninjutsu scrolls.
After all, it was a large family. There were still quite a few Ninjutsu scrolls, and even some experience from practice was marked, but they were usually not shown off.
"Tch, is that all there is?"
