I am the most popular character in Naruto!

"I defeated Neji, I am the champion!"

"No! I am!"

"go to hell!"

Naruto's shadow clones charged toward Neji in a chaotic frenzy, with no order whatsoever among them, and some even fighting amongst themselves.

They launched their attack with sheer brute force, fearless and undaunted.

Well……

To be honest, the Shadow Clone Army doesn't really need any special tactics; all they need to do is brute force.

This is why the strategy of massing troops has been considered the ultimate tactic since ancient times.

Under equal conditions, the side with more troops will eventually win.

Even if there is a crisis for a while, when the opponent is relaxed and tired, it will be a victory for our side.

The Zerg have won a great victory!

Seeing the numerous shadow clones, Neji solemnly assumed a fighting stance.

Even he had never seen such a scene before.

Facing a hundred opponents, all he could do was conserve his energy and find Naruto's true form as quickly as possible.

"Blind eyes!"

"Soft fist technique!"

"Baguazhang!"

Neji swung his arms forward and backward, and a Bagua formation suddenly appeared beneath his feet. It was a faint phantom created by the materialization of chakra, and gasps of shock came from the audience once again.

It should be noted that even among the Hyuga clan ninjas, not every one of them can perform the Eight Trigrams Palm and create a phantom Eight Trigrams array under their feet.

Making chakra materialize is an extremely difficult thing, and most people can only do so at the level of Neji, who can create a faint phantom image of chakra under his feet or near his body.

Someone like Chiaki, who directly materialized a substitute using chakra, is completely beyond the imagination of ninjas.

Bang bang bang!

A series of explosions rang out, and Naruto's shadow clones were no match for Neji's Gentle Fist Eight Trigrams Palm.

The shadow clones will explode and turn into white smoke if touched.

To conserve energy, Neji directly used pressure point techniques from the Eight Trigrams Palm to attack the shadow clones. When the shadow clones gathered in large numbers, he used Naruto's shadow clones to collide with them, thus eliminating a large number of shadow clones in batches.

What should have been a proper battle suddenly turned into Neji's one-man show of mowing down enemies. Genma Shiranui, watching from the stage, couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth and turned his gaze to the five Kage and the audience in the stands.

Fortunately, the Five Kage's attention was not on this side at all. They were still exchanging sarcastic remarks to each other, and Chiaki, who was sitting behind the Five Kage, was also holding Mirai and whispering something.

As long as these big shots don't feel anything, that's fine. Speaking of which, they really don't care about battles between genin, right?

Genma Shiranui breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the audience in the stands.

The audience seemed to appreciate it, not finding Neji's mowing-down-the-grass behavior strange at all; on the contrary, they wanted to see more of it.

Look at all that crackling and popping! It's like watching a movie, so exciting!

Neji's movements were extremely fluid, and he reduced Naruto's shadow clones to just over twenty in the blink of an eye.

Wow...that's amazing.

Naruto crouched to the side, watching nervously. He figured he was no match for Neji at this stage, so he simply created a hundred more shadow clones.

Unlike his reckless self in the original story, after receiving Jiraiya's guidance, Naruto gradually began to understand how to use his power to overwhelm others and how to defeat his opponents more efficiently.

For example, using shadow clones to directly overwhelm the opponent's stamina is an excellent method.

That's called tactics, not cunning!

"Go, go, go!"

Naruto's shadow clones pounced on Neji, grabbing his legs when he wasn't paying attention.

Neji's heart skipped a beat, and then a large number of Naruto's shadow clones pounced on him.

"It's under control! It's under control!"

"Hurry! Send more people!"

Naruto's shadow clones charged at Neji one after another, shouting loudly.

The audience got excited. Sure enough, the mass army tactic was always the best. With Neji making a mistake, Naruto's shadow clone army gained the upper hand!

When faced with such a large number of ninjas, most ninjas had no choice but to surrender.

In the eyes of the audience, Neji was probably powerless to do anything in this situation.

"Naruto is too naive!"

"Bagua Palm! Reversal of Fortune!"

However, Neji let out a low shout and twisted his foot, spinning his body around.

Bang bang bang!

In an instant, an inverted blue dome formed, and all the shadow clones hanging on Neji shattered, turning into white smoke that filled the air.

Chapter 622 Mass Production Tactics

"This is—a miracle!!!"

The audience in the stands were stunned, and even many Hyuga clan members who didn't know much about Neji were stunned.

It's important to know that the Rotation Technique is a taijutsu that only core members of the Hyuga clan can learn.

Baguazhang·Return to Heaven!

The advanced taijutsu passed down in the main branch of the Hyuga clan is based on the principle that when attacked, one releases a large amount of Gentle Fist chakra from the chakra points in the body and then makes a circular rotation like a spinning top, which can deflect almost all physical attacks.

It can be said that this move is essentially the signature ninjutsu of the core members of the Hyuga clan's main branch.

Well.

That's what they say, but in reality, not many core members of the main family know this technique. This is because to release Gentle Fist chakra from all the chakra points in the body, one needs to be extremely familiar with all the chakra points in the body and be able to perfectly master the Gentle Fist technique, as well as the manipulation and control of chakra.

Unfortunately, Chiaki was exceptionally skilled in techniques such as knowing pressure points, mastering Gentle Fist, and manipulating chakra.

At the same time, Hyuga Hiashi, who was extremely good at reading people and going with the flow, saw that Chiaki thought highly of Neji, so he directly used his younger brother's connections to pass on the Rejuvenation Technique to Neji.

Neji lived up to expectations, successfully overcoming the flaws of the Byakugan from the branch family and forcibly learning this technique.

In a state of extreme surprise, Hiashi Hyuga casually brushed aside the questions posed by some sour members of the main clan, while simultaneously posing a soul-searching question.

Why can others do it but you can't?

Neji was just a child from a minor branch family, not even sixteen years old yet.

In order to cling to Chiaki's coattails, Hiashi Hyuga can be said to have been quite aggressive.

After seeing Neji use the Hyuga clan's signature Rotation, Hyuga Hiashi, sitting in the audience, nodded in satisfaction. He praised his younger brother Hyuga Hizashi beside him, saying, "You really raised a good son, Hizashi."

Hyuga Hizashi also had a smile on his face. He knew very well that this was not entirely due to his son's efforts, but also to Chiaki's.

If Neji hadn't been teammates with Chiaki, and if his son hadn't been highly regarded by Chiaki, then learning the Rejuvenation Technique might not have been a good thing.

With the formidable presence of the Chiaki clan, the main branch of the Hyuga clan couldn't say anything. They could only grit their teeth and accept that Neji was the best of the current generation, without resorting to any sarcastic remarks about the division of the main branch into sub-branches.

In the original work, Hyuga Hizashi and Hyuga Neji suffered even worse fates. One of them was kidnapped by the Land of Lightning, and in order to rescue Hinata, he offered himself up as a bargaining chip.

With the secret technique of the Caged Bird Seal, the Byakugan of the branch family could not be retained, and so Hyuga Hizashi sacrificed his life for the eldest daughter of the main family.

Hyuga Hizashi's sacrifice triggered a series of chain reactions, such as Hinata becoming more cowardly, Neji beginning to resent fate, and ultimately, his character's death in the plot.

Fortunately, given the circumstances, the ninjas of the Land of Lightning dared not risk the wrath of the world by kidnapping Hinata.

They weren't just being silly; why would they offend a princess of Konoha for the sake of a princess who rolls her eyes?

This little princess of Konoha is also the number one goddess of life in the world, which is quite similar to Cao Dan.

Without these events, Hizashi Hyuga would still be alive and well, so Neji would naturally have no resentment.

You've said too much.

Anyway, after Neji used his Reincarnation skill, the reaction on the field was quite intense.

The audience was especially thrilled when they saw Neji's Rotation skill take down so many Shadow Clones at once.

Naruto's shadow clones are indistinguishable from real people, meaning that Neji's Rotation gave the audience the feeling of an "absolute defense against ten thousand men."

If this is indeed the case, then if such a powerful secret technique passed down through generations of a large family is not strong, the Hyuga clan might as well not be called the number one powerful clan in Konoha.

Many other clans in Konoha are vying for the title of the number one clan.

For example, the Uchiha clan, which only had a few members left...

Uh.

Sasuke, standing in the stands, gripped his arms tightly. His expression was not good, and he subconsciously touched his neck with his palm.

As the sole heir of the powerful Uchiha clan, he felt helpless in the face of Hyuga Neji's attempt to turn the tide.

Wasn't it supposed to be that the Uchiha were the number one?

Why doesn't the Uchiha clan have such an exaggerated secret technique?

what?

You mean the Mangekyou Sharingan?

Who knows how that thing is operated... It's really outrageous.

Sasuke's face turned pale and then red, and the image of the woman who had left him the "gift" around his neck flashed through his mind.

“Uchiha Sasuke, I’m very interested in you.”

"If you're also interested in me, then come find me."

To be honest, Sasuke was tempted.

Orochimaru was also one of the legendary Sannin. Under Sasuke's subtle probing, Chiaki "accidentally" let slip something.

That means Orochimaru has already reached the Kage level!
