Naruto: The Primal Hyuga Pierces the Shinobi World.

Shinichi Hyuga, having learned the list of his teammates, didn't even have much time to worry about his future. Just the next day, he received a summons from Captain Shiki Aburame.

It wasn't that any important mission had been assigned from above; it was simply that, with the team now formed, Aburame Shii, as the team leader, wanted the team members to meet and get to know each other first.

Aburame Shii is a very capable person. When Minato appointed her as the captain of this team, he also briefly explained to her what kind of mission this team would most likely be sent to carry out.

The chances of them getting to the front lines are slim; their squad's most routine task is to assist in reconnaissance.

While reconnaissance missions can avoid large-scale battles on the main battlefield, they often involve facing elite enemy forces. These missions place high demands on the squad's composition, requiring high mobility, good reconnaissance capabilities, and outstanding combat effectiveness.

Minato Namikaze's decision to form such a team was well-thought-out, and to some extent he actually approved of the arrangements made by the Japanese team for Shinichi.

He, being a genius himself, understood very well that for a ninja like Shinichi, the label of "genin" was actually a constraint.

Now that I've become a special Jonin, I need to accumulate ninja experience as soon as possible.

Aburame Shiki is one of his closest companions, and he doesn't bear the deep "Third Hokage's label." Furthermore, Aburame Shiki is a bug controller with a wide sensory range, making him a difficult Jonin for enemies to deal with. With him leading the team, they can minimize the chances of encountering invincible enemies.

Adding Uchiha Shisui to the team was also a well-thought-out decision by Minato, who hoped that the ninjas in this squad would become his main force in the future.

Shisui was an orphan with exceptional talent, becoming a Chunin at a young age. Minato had met Shisui and developed a strong liking for this gentle and mature ten-year-old boy.

Minato believed that a ninja like Shisui would be able to get along well with Shinichi Hyuga. The two were only five years apart in age, and with Shisui as a role model, Shinichi Hyuga would surely be guided by Shisui.

As for Might Guy, Minato valued his formidable taijutsu skills and his fiery enthusiasm. After all, he was a young Jonin from the village, and while his strength was enhanced, his personality should also be able to influence the young Shinichi.

Minato Namikaze put in a lot of effort to protect the Hyuga main family.

...

Konoha's Training Ground No. 1

As the team leader, Shiki Aburame arrived at the agreed location early, holding a file containing information about his team members and looking at it carefully.

Of these three team members, Shizuka Aburame was only somewhat familiar with Might Guy, the eternal rival of the genius Kakashi... Might Guy, the blue beast specializing in taijutsu, was actually quite famous in Konoha.

As for Uchiha Shisui, Aburame Shiki had only heard of his name, but had never met him.

Needless to say, Shinichi Hyuga was also someone I'd only heard of but never actually met, as was Shiki Aburame.

"A genius boy from the Uchiha clan, the 'treasure' of the Hyuga main family, and a wild, eccentric blue beast..."

"That Minato guy, he's putting so much pressure on me..."

Aburame Shiki noticed someone approaching and muttered a complaint under her breath, silently tucking the documents in her hand into her pocket.

Just looking at the information, Shiki Aburame already felt immense pressure.

He didn't know what kind of mission he would be carrying out in the future, but for him, leading three subordinates like these was undoubtedly an S-rank mission of difficulty...

"Captain Shimi Aburame?"

"Hello, I am Uchiha Shisui. Nice to meet you."

A clear, youthful voice rang in You Nu Zhiwei's ears. She looked up and saw a handsome young man with short black hair, carrying a short sword on his back.

Shisui was not tall and looked thin. He didn't exude any ninja aura. His gentle and sincere smile made Aburame Shiki feel a strong liking for this boy at first sight.

"oh!"

"Shisui! I'll call you that from now on. We'll be comrades and teammates in the future, so let's address each other in a friendly way."

"I'm Zhiwei, the oil girl. You don't need to call me Captain, just call me Brother Zhiwei."

Aburame Shiki was able to become one of Minato's closest friends, so her personality naturally wouldn't be the kind that's mean or mean.

Although it was their first meeting, a few words quickly bridged the gap between them. Shisui, being perceptive, knew from the brief conversation that his captain was the easy-going type, and smiled and nodded in response.

"Brother Zhiwei, please take care of me in the future."

After exchanging brief greetings, the two seemed to sense something and both looked toward the forest path not far away.

"Such a massive amount of chakra..."

Shisui murmured softly, and Aburame Shii nodded silently beside her. The parasitic insect that had been perched on her shoulder flew up uneasily and circled around Aburame Shii rapidly.

A moment later, the two saw a young boy dressed in training clothes slowly walk out of the woods and stroll toward the clearing where they were.

Their deep blue eyes met those of the others, revealing a complex mix of emotions.

Shinichi Hyuga glanced at his two teammates who had already arrived and, with renewed vigor, walked toward them.

Becoming Shisui Uchiha's teammate did make Shinichi uneasy for a time, but he quickly came to terms with it.

They're just teammates; their relationship is superficial and nothing to worry about.

Even if I were to take a step back and assume that I had indeed developed a deep friendship with Shisui, given Shisui's character, he would naturally not lay a hand on a close friend.

That's enough!

If external danger could cost him his life, then his teammates, whether or not they were Uchiha Shisui, would be the same. From this perspective, having Uchiha Shisui as a teammate is actually a good thing, because Shinichi understands that Shisui is not a useless teammate.

They've changed team members and formed a new group, but they don't know what kind of teammates they are or what their backgrounds are.

Ultimately, it all comes down to whether you're strong enough and have a tough life.

Those who are hesitant and indecisive will never grow into true strong individuals.

"Is that Shinichi Hyuga?"

"She really is as young as the rumors say."

"Hello, I am Shiki Aburame, and this is Shisui Uchiha."

"It's a pleasure to be your partner."

As Shinichi approached, Aburame Shiki warmly put his arm around Shinichi's shoulder and introduced them with a smile. He did not treat Shinichi and Shisui as children at all, and his attitude in the conversation was equal.

"Hello, Captain."

"Hello, Brother Zhishui."

Shinichi bowed slightly to the two of them, a smile on his face. He had a very good first impression of them, and their friendliness made him feel comfortable.

Before Shinichi, Shisui, and Shinobu could finish their conversation, a strange cry suddenly came from the sky.

The next instant, a gust of wind swept in from the sky, and a figure fell rapidly along with it.

"Konoha's Azure Beast—Might Guy!"

"Come on!!!"
