Chapter 48: Uchiha Maniacal Laughter

Hinata Hyuga walked aimlessly on the street.

In the previous skipping class, Kitazawa was there, so she didn't need to consider anything, just follow him, but now she was alone.

After walking for a while, Hinata Hyuga had an idea, and she came to that small forest again.

This time, what appeared in her mind was no longer fear.

Hinata Hyuga took a deep breath and started the tree-climbing training.

Perhaps because of the change in her state of mind, she felt exceptionally smooth today.

By noon, she had climbed to the top of the tree for the first time.

Hinata Hyuga clenched her fists, waved her hand, and a smile appeared on her little face.

She looked at the sun, realized the time, and quickly jumped off the tree and ran toward the Ninja Academy.

"Teacher Kitazawa!"

Hinata Hyuga ran into the office.

"So punctual?"

Kitazawa put down the lunch boxes in his hand one by one and joked, "It seems my 'meal-opening ninjutsu' has been practiced to the point of perfection."

"I..."

Hinata Hyuga's little face turned red, not knowing how to explain.

She really didn't run so fast because she was in a hurry to eat.

"Come over and eat."

Kitazawa looked at her embarrassed appearance and couldn't help but laugh.

Hinata Hyuga was even more embarrassed, but her body was very obedient, sitting opposite him.

"Where did you go this morning?"

Kitazawa handed her a pair of chopsticks and asked.

"I completed the tree-climbing training."

Hinata Hyuga was reminded by him, quickly raised her head, looked at him, and said.

"Well done. You are the first to complete the tree-climbing training; even Sasuke can't compare to you."

Kitazawa met her gaze, felt her emotions, and praised her.

Hinata Hyuga's mouth couldn't help but rise, and her two little feet swayed in the air.

It wasn't the first time she had been praised, but it was the first time she had been praised by someone she recognized.

In her mind, Kitazawa's status was now second only to Hiashi Hyuga.

"The improvement in chakra control ability is very helpful for you to master the Gentle Fist."

Kitazawa thought for a moment and said, "Of course, just climbing trees is not enough."

"I will work hard!"

Hinata Hyuga's eyes lit up.

If she could master the Gentle Fist as soon as possible, she would definitely be able to satisfy her father.

Kitazawa knew what Hinata Hyuga was thinking.

She and Sasuke Uchiha were the same, both wanting to get their father's approval.

But the predicament they faced was also the same.

How does the saying go? Comparing people to people will make you angry.

Sasuke Uchiha had Itachi Uchiha as a comparison, and Hinata Hyuga had Neji Hyuga as a comparison.

And Neji Hyuga was undoubtedly a rare genius.

In the original work, he realized the Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms and Rotation, which only the Hyuga main family could learn, by self-study.

"Have you opened your eyes?"

Kitazawa took a bite of fried shrimp and asked.

The Uchiha clan's eye-opening requires a certain amount of talent and emotional stimulation, but the Hyuga clan's eye-opening is very simple, just needing training.

Theoretically, every ninja of the Hyuga clan can open their eyes.

It's just that after they open their eyes, they lose the path of promotion, unlike the Uchiha clan, which still has one-tomoe, two-tomoe, three-tomoe, and Mangekyo.

This is also why Neji Hyuga's middle and late stages were far inferior to Sasuke Uchiha's.

Although he didn't have a late stage.

"No."

Hinata Hyuga shook her head and said.

Kitazawa didn't feel surprised upon hearing this.

In the original work, Hinata Hyuga used the Byakugan for the first time during the Chunin exams.

Although he didn't know the specific eye-opening time, it wouldn't be too early.

Kitazawa shoveled a mouthful of rice and chewed slowly.

He knew nothing about the Byakugan and Gentle Fist, so naturally, he couldn't help Hinata Hyuga.

But fortunately, he already had hope.

As long as he completed Hinata Hyuga's mission, he could get the Byakugan.

"There is a monthly exam in April."

Kitazawa thought for a moment and asked, "Do you want to get first place?"

"Me?"

Hinata Hyuga was stunned, and confusion appeared on her face.

"I can help you with special training."

The new way to practice courage that Kitazawa thought of was a school-wide speech.

A speech undoubtedly requires courage, especially in front of so many people.

And after the monthly exam, there would be a speech segment for excellent students.

"Thank you, Teacher Kitazawa."

Although Hinata Hyuga didn't quite understand, she didn't want to refuse Kitazawa, so she agreed.

"It's nothing."

Kitazawa smiled, but didn't mention the speech.

Time reached the afternoon.

Today's practical class was still ninja tool throwing, but not kunai, but shuriken.

Each ninja tool has its own characteristics, so he had to spend time practicing again.

However, for the ninja clan geniuses, it wasn't difficult.

The quiet training ground of the Ninja Academy.

At first, it was special training for Sasuke Uchiha alone, but now Hinata Hyuga, Ino Yamanaka, Naruto Uzumaki, and Yakumo Kurama had been added.

"Naruto and Yakumo, go run."

Kitazawa ordered, "Ino and Sasuke, practice climbing trees."

"Yes, Teacher Kitazawa!"

Naruto Uzumaki's execution was full, and he turned and ran.

Yakumo Kurama looked at his full-of-life appearance with envy.

She followed Kitazawa's teaching and started jogging in the training ground.

"Teacher Kitazawa."

Ino Yamanaka asked curiously, "Is Hinata not practicing tree climbing?"

"She has already completed the tree-climbing training."

Kitazawa said with a smile.

"So amazing!"

Ino Yamanaka couldn't help but exclaim.

She had also done tree-climbing training, so she knew the difficulty.

Sasuke Uchiha's body swayed, and he subconsciously clenched his fists.

He was actually one step slower than Hinata Hyuga?

Always considered a genius, he felt unwilling, so he quickly turned around and started climbing the tree.

"Sasuke-kun, wait for me!"
