Naruto: The Primal Hyuga Pierces the Shinobi World.

After seeing off Hiashi Hyuga and the others, Shinichi clearly sensed an impending storm.

It was a discussion of both the weather and the current situation. However, Shinichi was ultimately too optimistic. He thought that the departure of Hiashi and the elite troops would not have a significant impact on the clan in the short term.

However, to Shinichi's surprise, the Hyuga family became unsettled on the very night Hiashi left.

As night deepened, a light drizzle suddenly began to fall from the sky.

Raindrops fell on the bluestone slabs and pattered on the roof tiles, making a clear, tinkling sound. Shinichi Hyuga finished his evening training, turned off the lights, and walked out of the dojo.

Standing under the eaves, I looked up slightly at the drizzling rain and couldn't help but drift into a reverie.

"Um?"

Suddenly, the surface of the puddle in the open space in front of the dojo trembled. Under Shinichi Hyuga's gaze, the water flowing around the puddle began to gather rapidly, and in just a moment, a figure faintly materialized.

The person who arrived was shrouded in a black raincoat. He was tall and slender, and when he looked up, the headband he was wearing reflected a glimmer of light under the corridor lights.

"A Mist Ninja?"

Shinichi Hyuga recognized the other's headband at a glance. As his heart sank slightly, his right hand formed a hand seal in front of his chest, and his Byakugan activated.

"They actually managed to sneak into a place like this."

"The village's barrier-protecting team is far too lax."

In Shinichi Hyuga's memory, Konoha seemed to be infiltrated by enemy ninja villages at all times, like a sieve.

In the early years, there was an incident where the Cloud Ninja stormed into Konoha and almost kidnapped the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. Not long ago, Obito Uchiha even took a stroll around the village.

If it's somewhat understandable that Obito Uchiha, despite possessing Kamui, was able to bypass the barrier even though he was not a Konoha ninja, then the fact that Konoha was infiltrated by the Cloud Ninja and had its Jinchuriki kidnapped in its early years is an unforgivable mistake.

There have even been instances where Konoha was completely undetected because someone planted explosive tags all over the village.

Now, even the Hyuga clan's territory, located deep within Konoha, has encountered invaders. It's no wonder Shinichi is speechless at this level of defense.

However, this is a misunderstanding of Konoha's intelligence department. For ninjas, disguise and infiltration are their essential skills. In addition, Konoha is an open ninja village. If ninjas disguise themselves as civilians to make a living in Konoha, even the most elite intelligence department cannot identify and intercept them all.

It wouldn't be difficult for other ninja villages to create a false identity for their spies.

"She's very calm... as expected of Hyuga."

From beneath the black raincoat came a hoarse and deep male voice. As the man spoke, he grinned, revealing a row of jagged teeth.

The next instant, the man's wide sleeves suddenly shot towards Shinichi, and six senbon needles shot towards Shinichi's legs under the cover of night. In just the blink of an eye, they had already attacked Shinichi.

"Who are you?"

Facing the enemy's attack, Shinichi Hyuga remained calm. With a casual wave of his hand, a powerful chakra palm strike was unleashed, instantly sending the attacking Senbon flying and heading towards the location of the man in black.

While casually deflecting the enemy's attack, Shinichi also asked a question. Although he had already recognized the other party's headband and knew that his question was rather silly and would not get a response, Shinichi still asked it anyway.

Maybe...maybe the enemy has a personality like Naruto's, and will give a silly answer?!

"boom!!!"

Shinichi's palm strike was even faster than the black-clad man's senbon speed. The man stood there, seemingly never expecting that a child as young as Shinichi could launch such a fierce counterattack. He was directly hit by Shinichi's empty palm strike, and his entire body flew back several meters, crashing into the courtyard wall.

Slowly withdrawing his hand, Shinichi showed no joy on his face. He didn't even look at the location of the person he had knocked away, but instead turned his head to look at a puddle in the corner of the courtyard.

"Such petty tricks are meaningless against the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan."

Shinichi Hyuga stood under the eaves, his hands hanging down. As he spoke, the puddle he was watching slowly rose and condensed into a human shape after a moment.

The man in black who had been knocked away by Shinichi earlier had now turned into a puddle of water, splashed to the ground, and vanished without a trace.

Water body.

Although the Byakugan cannot identify this variant of the Shadow Clone Jutsu, it doesn't matter. In the face of the Byakugan, any chakra reaction can be traced.

As long as the enemy is still alive and lurking, they cannot escape the capture of the White Eyes.

Seeing that his whereabouts had been completely tracked, the person hesitated briefly before abandoning his attack on Shinichi Hyuga. Instead, he quickly pulled out several smoke bombs from his sleeve and threw them on the ground, where they exploded.

A sudden burst of purple smoke instantly filled the courtyard. The man leaped up and quickly jumped onto the wall. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly sensed a surge of chakra behind him.

Sensing something was wrong, the Mist Ninja quickened their pace, wanting only to escape as soon as possible.

The target's abilities far exceeded the intelligence. The moment the first raid failed and the enemy gained access to his trail, he knew that this mission could not continue.

However... it's too late to escape now!

Shinichi Hyuga, who was standing under the eaves, raised his right hand again. The overflowing chakra on his hand condensed into the shape of a lion's head. The lion opened its mouth, and a ball of chakra was gathering inside.

The moment the man in black disappeared over the wall, the chakra ball in Shinichi's palm, held in the lion's mouth, suddenly shot out.

The thick purple smoke was instantly pierced by the chakra ball, which created a large hole in the wall the moment it hit it.

On the long street outside the courtyard wall, the man in black landed, and the aura of death suddenly enveloped him. In the instant he turned around in terror, the chakra ball was already close to his eyes and quickly exploded.

"boom!!!!"

A deafening roar echoed through the Hyuga clan's territory, followed by a burst of intense white light that illuminated the sky above the Hyuga clan's lands.

Like a thunderclap from a clear sky, this loud noise woke up countless sleeping villagers.

Inside the Hyuga clan, clan members who heard the commotion rushed towards the main house, their faces filled with anger and worry.

...

Beneath a courtyard in Konoha Village.

Danzo Shimura stood in the spacious square, his head slightly raised as he gazed at the night sky.

The moment the loud noise erupted from the village, Danzo's breath caught in his throat. A flicker of surprise crossed his eyes before he silently lowered his head.

"Hinata..."

"It's a bit more difficult to deal with than I expected."
