I will traverse countless worlds and become a god entirely on my own!

In fact, regarding the matter of entrusting Hinata to Byakuya for instruction, the clan elders had hinted to Hyuga Hiashi that Byakuya might not be able to teach Hinata well.

After all, the Hyuga clan is different from other ninjas. They all practice clan secret techniques, and basically all of the Hyuga clan's techniques are designed to serve the Byakugan.

However, Bai Ye doesn't have the Byakugan or the Gentle Fist. If she were to teach Hinata, no matter how powerful Bai Ye is, in the eyes of these elders, she wouldn't be able to make any waves at all.

Since Hiashi Hyuga didn't care, Byakuya and the others naturally didn't dare to say anything, so they tacitly accepted the matter.

Now, who in the entire Ninja Kingdom dares to disagree with Byakuya's decision?

"It's not like we're not going to send it back to you, is it really necessary to do this?"

Byakuya glanced at Hiashi speechlessly, then took Hinata and prepared to leave.

He suffered countless scornful treatment from the Hyuga clan.

Hinata, who was following behind Byakuya, was also somewhat quiet. In fact, she was also a little at a loss. She didn't know what she should say to Byakuya.

"You don't need to be so nervous. I don't have that many rules, and you don't need to worry that I will put you in a high-pressure environment every day in order to force you to become stronger."

Bai Ye seemed to sense what Hinata was thinking; the little girl was very nervous.

"But didn't you say before, Lord Baiye, that you would increase my strength?"

In Hinata's view, Byakuya was practically telling Hiashi Hyuga directly, "I will send back a stronger Hinata."

If one's own strength has not improved, then what Bai Ye said today is tantamount to slapping himself in the face, isn't it?

Therefore, Hinata, after considering this point, guessed that Byakuya might subject her to grueling training after returning home.

But she had actually prepared herself mentally.

Since Hinata had agreed to become a disciple, she was determined to train diligently under Byakuya's guidance, hoping to at least earn Hiashi Hyuga's respect.

"Improving your strength doesn't require grueling training, but rather finding the right method. In my opinion, your previous training methods were also problematic, not to mention that your personality is not suited to that approach either."

Teaching should not be static; training plans should be tailored to each individual's unique characteristics.

Just like Naruto, Sasuke, and Neji, Byakuya did not undergo hellish training.

With two overpowered characters and a genius, teaching them wouldn't be too difficult, especially after a friendly exchange with Kurama (the Nine-Tails). After Kurama promised to lend Naruto his chakra and not interfere with Naruto's own chakra anymore, Naruto's problems were properly resolved.

In return, Byakuya would have to retrieve the chakra sealed within Minato Namikaze's body and merge it with the Nine-Tails, and would no longer be able to use it as a jinchūriki.

This was also a consensus he reached with all the tailed beasts: they only needed to stay in the body of the current Jinchuriki until the Jinchuriki died, and then they would no longer be sealed in the Jinchuriki's body.

The terms offered by Byakuya were very generous, and the Tailed Beasts naturally agreed.

Compared to their lifespan, the number of Jinchūriki is nothing; at most, they can only stay for a few more decades. After a hundred years, they will be free no matter what.

From this perspective, there seems to be no reason to refuse.

"I understand, Lord Byakuya. I will do my best no matter what!"

Hinata's attitude was also very clear: regardless of whether Byakuya would subject her to grueling training, she was prepared to accept it all.

"Let's go, let's go to the ninja academy first."

"Go to the ninja academy?"

Hinata looked at Byakuya with a puzzled expression. Was he telling her to say goodbye to her classmates?

Hinata shook her head, seemingly confused, and followed Byakuya to the Ninja Academy.

After lunch break, the students began to arrive at the ninja academy one after another to prepare for class.

The ninja academy now also accepts many students from other ninja villages.

"Iruka, bring these children to the office."

Bai Ye handed the information to Iruka and arranged for all the children with potential to come over. These children were also the ones who might provide him with lottery opportunities later.

Besides the twelve Konoha 12, there are also Gaara and his two siblings from Sunagakure, and Karin Uzumaki.

If they all agree, there would probably be sixteen people.

Fortunately, I can leave one shadow clone behind each day to teach them.

"Yes, Lord Byakuya."

Although Iruka couldn't quite understand why Baiye had brought them here, he obediently did as he was told.

After summoning all these people to the office, many were curious about the leader before them, especially Karin, who had originally been intended to be taken to the battlefield as a blood pack during the war between Kusagakure and Konoha.

At that time, it was Byakuya who saved him and his mother. After arriving at the Ninja Academy with the ninjas from Konoha, and undergoing a series of examinations, it was later discovered that if his mother hadn't arrived early, he would probably have died soon.

After recuperating in Konoha, her health gradually recovered. When Karin arrived in Konoha, she was asked if she wanted to go to the Ninja Academy because of her Uzumaki clan identity.

After some thought, she chose to join. She wanted to improve her strength so that she could protect her mother. At the same time, she also wanted to learn medical ninjutsu so that she could heal her mother's illness.

And all of this is thanks to the man in front of me.

"Don't be nervous. I called you here because there's something I want to talk to you about: whether you want to graduate early and then cultivate with me?"

As soon as Bai Ye finished speaking, the eyes of the curious crowd were filled with shock.

They had been wondering why Bai Ye had approached them.

They thought about it a lot, but no one expected that Bai Ye would actually take them as his disciples?

"us?"

Temari pointed to herself in surprise, a hint of disbelief still lingering on her face.

Why would Bai Ye choose them as disciples?

Their identities are sensitive. First of all, they are from the Sand Village. Although it's no longer common to say which ninja village they belong to, we are all one big family.

However, they also knew very well that it was normal for Byakuya, as a former Kage of Konoha, to be biased towards Konoha.

Secondly, their father was Luo Sha.

Rasa was once hated by everyone in the Sand Village for betraying Pakura.

As Rasa's children, their status in the Sand Village was actually quite awkward. Although Pakura said she wouldn't pursue the matter with the children, others would inevitably view them through a lens of prejudice.

This also meant that the three Temari siblings didn't actually have a very good life.

Bai Ye was the one who saved Ye Cang, and they should have a good relationship. Why would he take me as his disciple?

"That's right, so think about it carefully."

After Bai Ye finished speaking, he didn't say anything more, but let them think about it themselves.

"Lord Baiye, I'm very sorry, but I refuse!"

Although Rock Lee was somewhat tempted, he still chose to decline.

He had already become an apprentice.

Might Guy is the teacher. Since he already has a teacher, there is no reason for him to become a teacher of someone else. Even if Byakuya is stronger than Might Guy, if he has to become a teacher of someone stronger than his teacher, what kind of person is he?

Rock Lee never forgot that it was Might Guy who had always encouraged him and taught him how to train.

After graduation, he will definitely choose to train with Might Guy, and he really enjoys the atmosphere of training with Might Guy.

"Okay, then you can go back to the classroom first!"

Bai Ye nodded, not making things difficult for Xiao Li, but perhaps he refused because he had already become Might Guy's apprentice?

Thinking about it that way, Bai Ye wasn't surprised.

After all, that's just Rock Lee's personality.

"This idiot actually rejected Lord Baiye?!"

Everyone present was somewhat surprised. They didn't expect Rock Lee to reject Bai Ye. Was he a fool?

“He’s not stupid. He’s a pretty good person. If someone abandons their teacher after encountering a stronger opponent, I would also look down on them.”

Rock Lee had already left, and Bai Ye offered an explanation on his behalf.

At least in Bai Ye's opinion, he wasn't stupid; he was a very honest person, and besides, Xiao Li might be better off following Might Guy than following him.

This is perhaps what youth is all about.

"Shikamaru, should we say yes?"

Ino leaned close to Shikamaru's ear and whispered something.

She was actually a little hesitant, since these clan ninjas usually needed to consult their clan's opinion.

"We'll definitely agree, even the family will."

Shikamaru blurted out his thoughts without even thinking.

Please!

The strongest ninja in the world will be their teacher!

Even if they were assigned other Jonin to lead their teams after graduation, could they compare to Byakuya?

Don't be fooled by the large number of disciples Bai Ye has taken on; he truly deserves them all!

"I heard Naruto is training with Lord Byakuya now. It seems like we'll be able to see Naruto again soon!"

Although Choji and the others could see Naruto when Byakuya gave him time off, they still saw him much less often than during their time at the Ninja Academy.

Upon hearing Choji's words, Ino suddenly realized something and exclaimed to herself, "That's right!! If I become Sasuke's apprentice, wouldn't I be able to see him?!"

good good!

I absolutely have to become an apprentice!

Even if her own father tries to stop her, it won't work!

"Lord Baiye, I agree!"

Ino quickly raised her hand and spoke.

"Hey, hey, hey, didn't you agree a little too quickly?"

"That's the magic of love! Women really are such a hassle!"

Listening to Choji's words, Shikamaru remarked from the side, "As expected, Ino's mind goes blank whenever she thinks of Sasuke."

"Inoboar, I won't let you succeed!"

"A broad forehead!!"
