Chapter 20 One Year

Swoosh--

Two black shadows, with the sound of breaking through the air, kept colliding and fighting on the flat ground of the Hyuga clan's training ground.

"Eight Trigrams·Two Palms"

Two different voices sounded as they clashed.

As the voices fell, Hyuga Ryosuke and Hyuga Hiashi formed the last seal in their mouths.

Their white pupils locked onto each other, and chakra surged throughout their bodies, flowing freely in their meridians with the movements of their bodies, and finally gathered in the palms and condensed into shape!

"Four Palms."

The same moves, the same techniques, but the fighting methods and the order of the moves were different.

Every time they attacked each other, they would be resolved and counterattacked.

But because both of them were too familiar with Eight Trigrams Palm, they were in a stalemate for a long time, and they could not point any acupoints in each other's body for nearly 500 moves, and cut off a trace of chakra flow.

The Eight Trigrams Palm in the secret technique of the Hyuga clan-Soft Fist has a total of 64 palms, and each palm represents an acupoint in the human body.

Chakra flows through the meridians in the body, and acupuncture points are important hubs that connect the meridians.

By hitting different acupuncture points with soft fists, the chakra flow of the human body can be staged, and various negative states of the human body can be induced, such as dizziness, or short-term unconsciousness, inability to move, etc.

Ryosuke focused on this battle, which was not like the ninja combat in the past.

There was no strategy to kill the enemy, just a simple head-on battle.

But this battle made him feel more excited and enjoyable, but at the same time, his mind was extremely calm, dodging and parrying the attacks of Hinata Hiashi, and constantly looking for opportunities to counterattack.

Whether it was him or the opposite Hinata Hiashi, they knew that with such proficiency in Baguazhang on both sides, as long as either side was a little lax, they would probably be firmly seized the opportunity, and one blow could cause the battle to collapse.

"Eight palms... sixty-four palms!"

Since the serious battle, Ryosuke, who had remained expressionless from beginning to end, narrowed his eyes and suddenly tried to change his moves and change his fighting style in the battle.

At the same time, he directly performed a complete Bagua Palm without any reservation.

With his Byakugan turned on, and in such a high-intensity duel, Ryosuke was at a great disadvantage.

Although his physical fitness was based on his ancestral bloodline, it was far superior to his peers.

But compared with Hyuga Hiashi, it was still much worse.

If his physical fitness didn't keep up, then the amount of chakra would certainly be the same.

Now that the battle has lasted for so long, he still can't take down Hyuga Hiashi. Although Ryosuke is not anxious at all, if he continues without making changes, it is equivalent to admitting defeat directly.

"It's a bold idea."

Opposite him, Hyuga Hiashi quickly felt the change in Ryosuke's movements and praised him with appreciation.

However, his movements did not loosen up at all because of opening his mouth, but became more vigilant.

"There is a flaw!"

Changing your fighting style in the battle also means that in this process, Ryosuke's Bagua Palm may have errors in the fluency.

In less than ten moves, Hyuga Hiashi found one of his loopholes, his eyes flashed fiercely, and he swung his palm towards the acupuncture points on his body.

As long as this palm landed, the chakra mixed in his hand would block the chakra flow of Ryosuke's meridian, and his movements would become slow, and the outcome would be determined.

But just as his palm was about to press on Ryosuke, in Hyuga Hiashi's Byakugan, the chakra in Ryosuke's body suddenly burst out and surged.

"Kaiten!"

The disordered moves suddenly changed, and the remaining chakra gushed out from the acupuncture points all over Ryosuke's body, forming a spiral chakra cyclone, wrapping him tightly in it.

Hyuga Hiashi, who had already observed this scene through his Byakugan, had already given up the palm just now, stepped back a few steps, and avoided Kaiten's counterattack.

Ordinary ninjas can only transmit chakra through some parts of their bodies, such as hands or mouths and feet.

But the Hyuga clan has the Byakugan, which knows all the major acupuncture points in the body, and can transfer chakra from any acupuncture point in the body at will.

Kaiten is a secret technique passed down by word of mouth by the Hyuga clan. With the help of the characteristics of the Byakugan, the acupuncture points all over the body can instantly gush chakra, forming a spiral cyclone around the body, while resisting the enemy's attack, it can rebound part of the attack.

"That's it, you don't have enough chakra to fight me, you lose."

Hyuga Hiashi retracted his Byakugan, put his hands behind his back, and looked at Ryosuke who was panting in front of him.

"Indeed, I have no fighting ability anymore."

Ryosuke also smiled and retracted his Byakugan, and put away his fighting posture, "I didn't think I could beat you, at least I don't have a chance at the moment."

It has been a year since his physical fitness reached the standard and he officially practiced the soft fist method.

In this year, Ryosuke has learned all the secret techniques of the Hyuga clan and mastered them.

But based on his physical fitness, chakra volume, and chakra control level, he is still far behind Hyuga Hiashi. In actual combat, he has not had the opportunity to go all out.

"You can see your own strength clearly, which is very good. Let's stop here today." Hyuga Hiashi nodded and turned to leave.

But after walking a few steps, he paused again, "Tomorrow you and Hinata will prepare for school, you two should rest early."

After saying that, he slowly left the training ground, looking very calm.

At this time, Hinata, who had been silently observing the battle at the edge of the training ground, took the water and trotted to Ryosuke's side to hand it over.

"You are so powerful, Ryosuke, you can fight on par with your father." She looked at Ryosuke with some excitement, her tone full of envy.

"You think too highly of me. There is still a big gap between me and my father."

Ryosuke took the water with a smile and drank a big mouthful. "Now it's your turn to practice. I told you yesterday about the method of running the soft fist chakra. Are you proficient in it?"

Although Hinata had given up such an unrealistic goal after the chat.

But she still had to work harder. Without damaging her body or affecting her development, she completed the physical training one and a half years earlier than expected.

However, Ryosuke also helped her and corrected her reasons for practicing.

"Already...almost."

Faced with Ryosuke's inquiry, Hinata whispered, "If you can guide me a few more times, I should be able to remember it."

Chuckling, Ryosuke looked at her helplessly, "I told you to draw it a few more times with paper and pen to let your mind remember it first."

"If you personally urge me by my side and guide me with your fingers, it will be easier for me to get familiar with it." Hinata looked at him eagerly.

Compared to repeatedly drawing on the picture, she felt that letting Ryosuke slide his fingers on her body surface to guide her in the process of running chakra would make her feel more real.

"Okay, okay, but I have to rest for a while. My current chakra volume makes it difficult to even maintain the Byakugan." Ryosuke looked at her lovingly and sat down cross-legged.

His shortcomings are obvious, but it takes time to make up for them.

Cultivation is not a matter of a moment, but requires accumulation over time. Whether it is physical fitness, chakra volume, or chakra control, although it seems basic and easy to get started, the end of these roads is very far away, and each improvement process is not easy.
