Hanabi sat obediently beside her.

"Hanabi, what do you think is the purpose of our hard training and becoming stronger?"

"Of course, it's to protect the Hyuga clan!"

Hinata smiled gently.

"Of course, that's the correct answer, but..."

"It shouldn't be the only answer."

Fireworks blinked their eyes.

"So, what else?"

Hinata glanced at the night outside the window, where the crescent moon cast a hazy, clear light.

"Everyone is different..."

"I want to gain recognition from others, I want to prove myself, I want to fulfill my dreams..."

"or……"

"I want to protect the people I love."

"But most importantly..."

"I want to become a better version of myself."

Fireworks seemed to understand but not quite: "To become a better version of yourself?"

"Didn't your older sister do the same thing before?"

Hinata sighed softly and shook her head.

“That’s different…”

"Hanabi, your talent surpasses mine, but you are still too young, and there are many things in the family that you haven't fully understood yet..."

"Although, I am the same..."

Hanabi scratched her head: "So, do you have someone you like now, sister?"

Hinata blushed instantly, but she didn't intend to hide it from her younger sister.

"……Um."

Hanabi's eyes lit up immediately, her face full of anticipation: "Ah, who is it? Who is it? Who is it!"

Chapter 35 Sakura Haruno: How can that be the same?! Please vote with monthly tickets!!!

Hinata looked at Hanabi's gossipy eyes, feeling both shy and amused.

She touched the little nose of the firework.

I'll tell you later...

"It will be kept secret for now."

Hanabi pouted slightly: "...Oh."

The little devil in her heart bared its fangs.

"Hehe, I can find out myself..."

Hinata stood up again and patted Hanabi's head.

"Go to sleep first, Hanabi."

"I need to cultivate for a while longer."

Fireworks nodded, walked out the door and was about to close it when she turned back and said.

"Sister, don't overwork yourself..."

"Ah."

The door closed, and Hinata's voice soon came from the training room again.

Neither of the sisters realized that their father, Hiashi Hyuga, was in the yard and had overheard their entire conversation.

"Hinata..."

Hiashi Hyuga frowned slightly.

He recalled the past and realized that his strictness towards Hinata had reached the point of being harsh.

but……

There was nothing I could do about it.

As the clan leader and the head of the main family, he had reasons to do so.

Even if she is his own biological daughter, it's the same.

Because that's how I grew up too.

In fact, this has been the way the main family has operated for over a thousand years since its branches split...

but……

Hiashi Hyuga also looked up at the crescent moon in the night sky.

Is it really right just because it has always been this way?

He saw that face again...

It had the same face as his own, except that it had a caged bird curse mark on its forehead.

"Hizashi, what... should I do?"

Will the tragedy between us brothers continue?

"Hinata, she..."

"So, all along, you've been using your own way to resist so-called fate?"

"On the contrary, I, the clan leader and the father, have done nothing all this time, and dared not do anything..."

"The cowardly one has always been me..."

He listened to Hinata's diligent training and let out a sigh in the desolate night.

……

When Naruto finally finished his day of training.

It was already late at night.

Under the system's prompting, he fell asleep almost immediately without any delay.

Through his continuous efforts in practice, he gradually became proficient in multitasking.

Chakra Refining Technique and Transformation Technique were used simultaneously, resulting in significant improvements.

Chakra Refining Technique Proficiency: 88 points!

Transformation Proficiency: 76 points!

Seduction Skill Proficiency: 70 points!

Multitasking proficiency: 61 points!

Chakra levels have also increased to 66 points!

of course.

The spiritual practice has not ended, but has just begun.

In his dream, Naruto once again faced off against Sasuke in ninja sparring.

This time, however, Naruto began to try to control himself.

While maintaining fighting spirit and killing intent, one must not allow oneself to completely lose one's rationality.

In other words, fighting spirit can boost one's morale and combat power, but this boost cannot be allowed to become insane or even completely out of control.

This is not a systematic special training program.

Rather, it represents Naruto's new and rigorous demands on himself.

Of course, even in this state, we must still do our best to defeat Sasuke!

Having experienced a real battle with Sasuke during the day, Naruto felt even more confident.

Because he understood that although he was on the verge of losing control and was ultimately stopped by the Third Hokage, he was finally qualified to fight Sasuke fairly!

That's the root of his confidence.

That night, Naruto grew a lot more.

……

The next day, Naruto still felt a slight pain in his right leg, but he gritted his teeth and persevered, and it wasn't a big deal.

Given his exceptional physique, he is already recovering rapidly from this level of injury.

He did not give up training because of his injury.

The system didn't give him that chance either.

On the way to school, I still had to walk upside down while carrying a heavy load, in addition to multitasking with my academic studies.

However, compared to yesterday, Naruto is now much more adept at multitasking.

The weight on his right leg made him grimace slightly.

But he persisted to the end.

Another road in Konoha Village.

Ino caught sight of that incredibly familiar back view. Her heart skipped a beat, and her brows furrowed slightly, but she quickly relaxed, revealing her usual bright and cheerful smile.

She quickly stepped forward and patted the other person on the shoulder.

Good morning, Sakura.

However, Sakura Haruno's face was as cold as ice.

"Do not touch me."

She twisted her shoulder, shook off Ino's hand, and strode away.

Ino's hand froze in mid-air.

"Sakura..."

Undeterred, she chased after him again.

Are you... are you still angry?

"I've already apologized to you..."

"You still can't forgive me?"

Sakura Haruno said coldly, "Don't think I don't know."

"After we argued yesterday, you went home with Hinata on the way home from school, right?"

"I think you've already made your choice."

"Our friendship seems to be worthless to you."

Ino's heart skipped a beat.

Did she see it?

but……

"That doesn't mean anything. I just exchanged a few words with Hinata..."

Sakura Haruno said, "No, as my best friend, you chose to stand on Hinata and Naruto's side, so there's nothing more to say."

Ino couldn't help but raise her voice.

"But Hinata and Naruto really didn't do anything wrong..."
