Chapter 48
Clash with Might Guy

The Hyuga clan territory, training ground.

Two figures, not yet adults, were engaged in a "pap pap pap" battle.

They exchanged blows, accompanied by panting and shouts, the battle seeming quite intense.

Moreover, their "pap pap pap" moves were very similar, and with the addition of chakra, their speed was fast enough to produce afterimages.

“Pap!”

After another collision.

Seven Night looked at Hyuga Setsuna, who was panting, and suggested:

"Setsuna-san, let's call it a day for today?"

"You're progressing very fast."

Hearing Seven Night's praise and compliments, a hint of joy flashed in Hyuga Setsuna's eyes, but the etiquette and rules stemming from her identity forced her to maintain a calm demeanor. She merely gave a slight lift of the corner of her lips.

Hyuga Setsuna pursed her lips and said, "Seven Night-kun, you must be stronger than a genin now, right? Why don't you graduate early?"

Seven Night said, "Why graduate early?"

"Our Hyuga clan, our Gentle Fist is self-proclaimed as a lineage. Our instructors cannot provide guidance and only teach us about ninja missions and experiences, it's not very meaningful."

"Moreover, with the family, I don't lack money, so instead of doing missions, I'd rather cultivate and improve my strength."

It's true that Seven Night has a monthly allowance.

Especially since Seven Night has demonstrated extraordinary talent, after submitting the [Body Flicker Technique], he received more resources.

Families that can be passed down for thousands of years all have their own operating systems. While they may not be able to be completely fair and just, they must be able to maintain the continuation of the family.

It is impossible for a genius to be abandoned for the sake of livelihood in a large family like the Hyuga.

Moreover, what Seven Night truly desires now cannot be bought with money.

For example, information and insights on Yin Release and Yang Release, or the secrets of Sage Mode and Nature Energy…

"Seven Night-kun, I'm going to practice calligraphy."

As the eldest daughter of the Main Branch, Hyuga Setsuna not only had to learn Gentle Fist, but also received training in various cultural disciplines.

"Setsuna-san, then I'll be leaving."

Seven Night tactfully took his leave.

After spending some time with Hyuga Setsuna, he realized that the eldest daughter of the Main Branch is actually a good person.

She is not spoiled or arrogant, just always looking proper and dignified, lacking the playfulness and innocence of other children her age.

"She's a Main Branch lady after all!"

………

Small forest.

Two figures were exchanging blows, their movements turning into afterimages.

“Bang! Bang! Bang…!”

The green figure, like a gust of wind, charged forward.

"Leaf Hurricane!"

Powerful leg strength carried with it a whistling whirlwind kick, the air itself whistling.

"Body Flicker!"

The white figure instantly disappeared from its spot, appearing like a flash of light at the green figure's side and behind it.

"Gentle Fist - Eight Trigrams Palm!"

With a light press on his thigh, the white figure used the force to somersault and retreat.

The green figure stumbled, barely avoiding falling to the ground.

"Dai, your steel fists are getting even more fierce!"

Seven Night praised, looking at the two-headed-taller Might Dai.

Due to the difference in physical attributes, his sparring with Might Dai would not involve him directly confronting his opponent's fist strength.

Because there is no comparison at all!

He is only 8 years old, his body has not yet begun to develop; while Might Dai is already 16 years old, his muscle and bone strength is simply not comparable to Seven Night's.

If it wasn't for the existence of chakra, this extraordinary energy, Seven Night wouldn't be able to engage in combat with him, let alone take the upper hand.

The strike he landed on Might Dai's thigh earlier had already used Gentle Fist chakra to disrupt the flow of chakra within his body.

"I'd say your taijutsu is already exceeding that of an average Chunin."

"Thanks!" Might Dai laughed with a wide grin. "But, youth hasn't given up yet! ~"

"Seven Night, let me show you my training results from the past year!"

Might Dai crossed his arms in front of his head, squatting slightly, exhaling and applying force.

"Eight Inner Gates - First Gate…"

A suppressed aura emanated from Might Dai, the dust and leaves on the ground began to tremble.

Seven Night's eyes narrowed, this posture, could it be…

"Open - Open!"

With a low shout, a powerful chakra wave emanated from Might Dai, a whirlwind spontaneously formed around him, pushing aside debris within three meters.

The chaotic and violent chakra, like a surging flood, instantly dispelled the Gentle Fist chakra that Seven Night had injected.

"As expected, it's a bit painful…!"

Might Dai frowned.

He could feel the intense pain coming from his muscles and meridians, especially his meridians. No matter how hard you train, meridians are very difficult to train.

Seven Night's skin tightened, the danger Might Dai posed to him had greatly increased.

"As expected, it's the [Eight Inner Gates], but…"

"Why only the First Gate?"

"In the original timeline, Rock Lee could already open the Fifth Gate at 13 years old!"

However, Seven Night quickly understood.

It must be that Might Dai spent 20 years refining the [Eight Inner Gates] training process, correcting all the errors and passing it on to his son, Might Guy. While Might Guy stood on his father's shoulders and trained for decades, he gradually figured out the difficulties in training the [Eight Inner Gates]...

So, it was like two generations of people taking turns, feeling their way through the process, allowing later generations to benefit.

"Seven Night, I'm going all out!"

After roaring, Might Dai slammed his foot down on the ground, his figure instantly disappearing from its spot.

His speed was at least 50% faster than before.

Seven Night's Byakugan widened, the veins on his sides bulged, yet his face remained calm.

"Flicker! ~"

Between the changes in light and shadow, his figure instantly split into five or six, momentarily blinding Might Dai.

"Never mind, just knock down every single one."

But Might Dai charged left and right, only striking scattered afterimages.

"Dai, this technique makes your speed and strength explode…"

"But the problem is, uncontrolled strength is just a huge burden..."

"How long can you maintain this state?"

Seven Night's voice was ambiguous, coming from all directions.

Sure enough, less than 30 seconds later, Might Dai was panting heavily.

This was the first time he had opened the [Eight Inner Gates], he didn't expect the burden on his body to be so great.

"Gentle Fist - Eight Trigrams - Four Palms!"

Seizing the opportunity while Might Dai was catching his breath, Seven Night's figure instantly appeared.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

He struck Might Dai four times in succession on his limbs, Might Dai groaned and then fell.

He was like a deflated balloon, the violent chakra fluctuations instantly subsided.
