Naruto, all the ninja women love me, and Konoha depends on me.

Chapter 028: "Blind" Group Outing?

During the days when Tsukuyo was busy using cunning tactics to preserve the friendship between her elder brother Hashirama and the young Uchiha boy, she had no time to spare for Senju Wakama.

In the forests of Naka River, while routinely practicing his stealth techniques, Senju Wakama added a new martial art to his training regimen: "Taijiquan" (Tai Chi Fist).

This martial art was exceptionally unique, with its core focusing on internal energy. Practicing it required coordination with breathing techniques.

Due to the breathing techniques involved, Wakama couldn't master it in the same way as Tsukuyo, who had taught him the art. As a result, his practice of this fist technique led him down a different path of cultivation.

- Calm the mind and focus intent, breathe naturally;

- Maintain a centered and relaxed posture, gentle and slow;

- Use the waist as an axis, with the upper and lower body moving in harmony;

- Coordinate movements fluidly, distinguishing between solid and empty;

- Be light yet steady, combining hardness and softness.

The Senju Wakama of today was no longer the child who couldn't escape his sister's clutches.

Driven by the desire to break free from his sister's influence, Wakama felt that his efforts were never enough not enough, still not enough. He wasn't pushing himself hard enough; he hadn't yet fully escaped his sister's protection.

Fueled by this mindset of "not enough," Wakama trained day and night.

Combining his "Stealth Techniques" with Taijiquan, Wakama developed a unique aura, different from his sister Tsukuyo's.

Residing in the forest, he became one with nature.

His slow punches resembled an elegant dance.

Seemingly slow yet actually fast, smooth and natural.

The gentle breeze around Wakama stirred up fallen leaves, which swirled around him, forming vortices of yin and yang. The leaves spread out in all directions, eventually weaving into a complex, dense, and orderly invisible barrier.

Every bird and insect that accidentally passed by became trapped in the "meshes" formed by the leaves. No matter how they struggled, they couldn't break free.

Wind, the softest and formless entity, was now under Wakama is control through this martial art.

Wakama thought to himself, "This technique my sister Tsukuyo taught me has finally shown some initial results."

After all, Wakama was the brother of Hashirama and Tsukuyo, and his chakra reserves were far greater than those of his peers.

As he immersed himself in this peculiar martial art, Wakama became one with nature.

After completing the final set of movements, Wakama retracted the "invisible net" that had trapped the flying creatures around him.

The birds and insects, now free, quickly forgot their earlier predicament and resumed their carefree flight.

Next, Wakama began experimenting with a new technique that combined "Stealth Techniques" and "Taijiquan."

His steps were incredibly light, causing the already settled leaves to float up again, like green waves parting the water.

The once calm forest, stirred by Wakama is new "dance," erupted into a frenzy. Leaves detached from their branches and surged like raging waves, resembling a boiling cauldron, creating a breathtaking spectacle.

The air currents lifted the agile Wakama off the ground, soaring high into the sky.

The swirling leaves coalesced into a winding dragon shape, like a green dragon frolicking in the sea, its body coiling between heaven and earth.

Wakama stood atop the "green dragon's" head, its tail sweeping in all directions.

So much fun!

Wakama, still brimming with the enthusiasm and innocence of his age, created this dazzling move purely for his own amusement.

However...

While still habitually practicing Tai Chi at this height, Wakama noticed something strange when he looked down.

Not far away, there was a group of well-dressed individuals wearing bamboo hats.

If they were just ordinary travelers passing by, they wouldn't have been so noticeable.

What was eerie was that these elegantly dressed people, clad in traditional robes, all had their eyes covered with cloth strips.

A group of refined... "blind people"?

Wakama: "????"

The scene looked like a group of blind people on a spring outing.

How could this be?

The confusion lasted only a moment before Wakama remembered why he had been practicing this martial art in the first place. The root of his training was the Hyuga clan, who possessed the Byakugan (All-Seeing Eye)!

When Wakama noticed the Hyuga clan, who were hiding their kekkei genkai (bloodline limit) in the forest, they all moved at once, charging toward him.

Wakama landed gracefully, and the approaching "blind people" formed a crescent-shaped formation around him, stopping three zhang (about 10 meters) away.

...

Hyuga Toshimori had come personally, along with his guards, to investigate the "prospective son-in-law" his daughter Miyu had spoken of.

Hyuga Miyu had led the way.

When they found Wakama, he was engrossed in practicing that strange fist technique.

It resembled the Bagua Palm they knew, yet it wasn't.

Especially when they saw how the palm winds stirred the leaves, trapping the flying creatures around him, the Hyuga clan kept their distance, observing from afar without approaching.

Hyuga Toshimori had intended to ask his daughter Miyu about Wakama is other details.

More precisely, Toshimori wanted to inquire about the fist technique Wakama was currently practicing.

Before he could speak, Toshimori noticed that Miyu was completely captivated by Wakama.

Her body was still present, but her soul seemed to have left for quite some time.

Toshimori couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

The portrait Miyu had drawn of Wakama was only 70% accurate.

The real Wakama was even more handsome than the beautiful youth in Miyu's painting, and the aura he exuded was unmatched by most of his peers.

Toshimori finally understood the reason. Then, he ordered everyone to cover their eyes with cloth strips and use the Byakugan to scout the surroundings.

He hoped this would snap Miyu out of her trance.

But he didn't expect that just as they covered their eyes, Wakama, having reached the pinnacle of his practice, floated high into the air and spotted them.

Being caught spying was awkward.

Before they could react, Miyu, who had been entranced, suddenly exclaimed, "Wakama is escape skills are unparalleled! Father, don't let him get away!"

Her body moved faster than her mind, and Toshimori and his group immediately gave chase, almost as if they were ganging up on Wakama.

Wakama looked at this scene speechlessly.

Thanks to Tsukuyo's influence, the Hyuga clan's secrets were no mystery to Wakama.

After learning of Hyuga Miyu's existence, Tsukuyo, for Wakama is safety, had sent birds to spy on the Hyuga clan, especially Miyu.

After a period of "spying," Tsukuyo told Wakama that Miyu's feelings for him were more than 70% genuine and in a rather obsessive way. If not handled carefully, that love could easily turn into hatred.

Handle it well, and Miyu would be like a little bird;

Handle it poorly, and Miyu would become a yandere.

Considering that Miyu didn't know Wakama was aware of her actions within the Hyuga clan, the siblings decided to play along with her scheme.
