Naruto: F**king Makes Me Stronger

Chapter 404: Hinata VS Toneri

Hinata subconsciously moved closer to Shun, her Byakugan activating again, her clear white pupils showing determination but no anger, only a hint of complexity.

"You... are you the last descendant of the Branch Family? The grievances of our ancestors passed a thousand years ago, why cling to them still?"

Toneri sneered, stood up, and his Tenseigan glowed intensely. "Back then, the Main Family regarded us as anomalies. Now, you thrive in the Ninja World, while the Branch Family withers due to the Tenseigan's backlash, leaving only me. How can this hatred ever pass?"

"Toneri, you should know that the tragedy of the Branch Family stemmed from greed for power, not oppression from the Main Family."

Shun interrupted him, his tone calm but carrying an undeniable force. "The Tenseigan's backlash is the price you pay for forcibly taking power that doesn't belong to you. I brought Hinata here today not to settle old scores, but for her to gain experience."

Hinata subconsciously moved closer to Shun, her Byakugan active, watching Toneri warily.

She could feel the suffocatingly immense Chakra within him, especially the bloodline suppression emanating from his blue Tenseigan, which made her body tense.

Shun patted Hinata's shoulder, his tone still gentle. "Toneri inherited Hamura's complete power, his Tenseigan has reached its peak. Hinata, activate Sage Mode and simply try to hold your own. The focus of this training is on perception and adaptability."

"Sage Mode..."

Hinata took a deep breath, Chakra surging around her. White Sage Mode markings appeared on her forehead and around her eyes. Although her Chakra was several times more refined than before, it was still far from the terrifying aura Toneri exuded.

"Hmph, even with Sage Mode, you're nothing but an ant." Toneri snorted.

"Tenseigan Chakra Mode, activate!"

A dense green Chakra suddenly erupted around him, enveloping his entire body in a brilliant green light. Twelve glowing green Truth-Seeking Orbs floated behind him, slowly rotating.

He raised his hand and waved. The twelve Truth-Seeking Orbs behind him instantly transformed into twelve green streams of light, shooting towards Hinata and sealing off all her escape routes.

Hinata's pupils constricted and she quickly used "Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm" to strike repeatedly.

The white Chakra palms collided with the Truth-Seeking Orbs but were swallowed up by them, failing to slow their trajectory in the slightest.

Just as the Truth-Seeking Orbs were about to pierce her body, a golden blur suddenly flashed past.

Shun's speed was extreme, almost leaving traces of spatial distortion. He wrapped an arm around Hinata's waist, teleporting them several meters away.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The Truth-Seeking Orbs landed where they had been, exploding into several bottomless craters, sending debris flying.

"So fast..."

Hinata was still shaken, her cheeks flushed from the wind pressure of the high-speed movement, and her hands subconsciously clutched Shun's sleeve.

A hint of surprise flashed in Toneri's eyes, then he coldly snorted, "You can dodge once, but can you dodge countless times?"

His right hand was covered in dazzling green Chakra, and a condensed green orb of light rapidly formed in his palm.

"This green orb can devour your Ninjutsu and drain your Chakra. Let's see how you dodge."

The green orb shot towards Hinata with a sharp whistling sound. At the same time, the Tenseigan in Toneri's eyes glowed intensely, and a powerful gravitational pull instantly locked onto Hinata, stiffening her body and making her unable to move.

This time, the orb's speed was faster than the Truth-Seeking Orbs, and being constrained by gravity, the difficulty of dodging doubled.

Protecting Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms!

Hinata gritted her teeth and channeled Chakra, forming an impenetrable defensive wall of white Chakra. However, the moment the green orb struck, it was frantically devoured, and the defensive wall disintegrated at a visible rate.

Just as the orb was about to touch her chest, Shun moved again. He raised his hand and conjured a thin golden Chakra barrier, precisely blocking it in front of Hinata.

Boom!

The green orb crashed into the barrier, erupting in a violent energy shockwave, but it was firmly blocked by the barrier, unable to harm Hinata in the slightest.

At the same time, Shun flicked a wisp of golden Chakra from his fingertip, breaking Toneri's gravitational restraint.

"Shun, must you repeatedly interfere?" Toneri's expression darkened.

The gravity around him suddenly intensified, and the rocks of the entire hall began to tremble violently, with large stones constantly falling from the ceiling.

"Since that's the case, I'll show you the power of the Tenseigan."

The Tenseigan's light surged, and the entire moon began to shake slightly. Jagged cracks appeared on the hall floor.

Hinata felt a mountain-like heavy gravitational pull from beneath her feet. Her body felt as if it were filled with lead, making even raising her hand difficult, and the circulation of Chakra became sluggish.

Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!

A massive green tornado erupted from the light circle, dozens of meters in diameter, carrying the power to tear space, and swept towards Hinata.

Wherever the tornado passed, rocks were instantly pulverized. Its power was strong enough to pierce the moon.

This attack had an extremely wide range, and the gravitational restraint had not been lifted, so Hinata had no way to dodge.

Just as the tornado was about to engulf her, Shun's figure once again turned into a golden blur. He shielded Hinata behind him, and with a wave of his left hand, golden Chakra formed a massive barrier, forcefully blocking the Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion in front of him.

Boom... Boom...

Deafening roars echoed throughout the palace.

The barrier trembled violently but remained standing.

Taking this opportunity, Shun teleported Hinata to the other end of the hall, away from the tornado's attack range.

"Damn it!"

Toneri watched Hinata being saved from peril again and again, his killing intent surging.

He clasped his hands together, and the Truth-Seeking Orbs behind him instantly fused, transforming into a giant yellow Chakra sword dozens of meters long.

Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!

The light sword emitted a terrifying aura. Wherever the blade passed, the air was scorched and distorted as it fiercely slashed down towards the two.

This sword had an even wider range, greater power, and extreme speed.

Hinata's face was pale. Even with Shun's protection, she could feel the aura of death emanating from the light sword.

"Hold on tight." Shun's voice remained steady.

He wrapped his arm around Hinata's waist, and golden Chakra erupted around him, increasing his speed to an unprecedented level.

He not only teleported Hinata but also left several golden afterimages during their movement, making it impossible for Toneri to predict their landing spot.

Swish!

The golden light sword slashed down in the center of the hall, carving a chasm several hundred meters long and dozens of meters deep into the ground. The entire palace shook violently, as if on the verge of collapse.

Meanwhile, Shun and Hinata had already appeared in the corner of the hall, unharmed.

Toneri looked at the empty attack range, then at Shun, who was calmly composed in the distance, his expression becoming solemn.

Although his Tenseigan could perceive trajectories, it simply couldn't keep up with Shun's speed. The other party's movement was so fast that it surpassed the limits of visual capture, even approaching the level of spatial leaps. Each time, he managed to take Hinata out of danger just before his attack hit.

"Your speed... how can it be so fast?"

Toneri gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with disbelief and frustration. "At this rate, I can't hit her at all."

He clearly possessed strength that could crush Hinata, yet because of Shun's unpredictable speed, his efforts were repeatedly in vain. This feeling of having power but being unable to use it made him feel extremely troublesome.

Hinata breathed slightly, fine beads of sweat appearing on her forehead. Most of her Senjutsu Chakra had already been consumed.

She knew that without Shun's protection, she would have been defeated numerous times already. Her dependence and gratitude towards him grew even stronger.

"Shun-sensei, I can continue."

Shun patted her shoulder, his golden Rinnegan looking at Toneri, a faint smile on his lips. "Toneri, although your power is great, you can't grasp the essence of speed. Hinata needs training, so be a good sparring partner."
