Naruto: Reborn With Combat Simulation Space

As time went on, with the companionship of Tsunade, Mito, Nawaki, Kazuki, and Mikoto, Kushina gradually developed a sense of belonging to Konoha.

Now Kushina knew that war could erupt at any time, and she did not want Konoha to suffer the same calamity as the Land of Whirlpools.

She did not want Kazuki and the others to endure the same fate as her.

Rinka glanced at Kushina , puzzled, and then introduced herself, "My name is Hyuga Rinka, and I specialize in Gentle Fist. There's nothing I particularly like or dislike."

"As for my dream, it's probably to become stronger and then master my own destiny."

"Become stronger and master your own destiny? That's a good ideal." Tsunade gave Rinka a meaningful look.

Although the Hyuga clan wasn't exactly useless, there weren't many ambitious people among them.

She hadn't expected that her team would get a Hyuga who wanted to become stronger, so she wanted to see how far Rinka could grow.

Rinka looked at Tsunade openly and confidently. Among the female Ninjas in Konoha, Tsunade was considered one of the best, and she hoped to learn a thing or two from Tsunade.

"Alright, I'm familiar with Kazuki and Kushina's strength. Next, you'll have a match with that kid, Kazuki, so I can see your strength. Remember to use all your power, or you'll lose badly."

Tsunade glanced at Kazuki, a hint of mischief flashing in her eyes, and pointed at Kazuki as she spoke.

Kushina was too young and had been training for too short a time, so she probably wasn't Rinka's match, but Kazuki was different.

She didn't believe that anyone in this age group could be Kazuki's opponent. Nawaki couldn't do it, and it was difficult for Minato to catch up to Kazuki. Only Jiraiya consistently and firmly believed that Minato could catch up to Kazuki in the future, or even surpass him.

Kazuki could just suppress Rinka a bit, making the proud young lady behave a little more in her team afterward.

As for how Kazuki and Rinka would get along afterward, that wasn't Tsunade's problem.

If they truly clicked, they would naturally cooperate closely in the future. Jiraiya and Orochimaru didn't usually get along, but in battle, they could still entrust their backs to each other.

If they couldn't click, then she didn't need to bother. When the war started, Kushina would go back to school, and Kazuki could join Nawaki's team.

As for Rinka, as a Hyuga, the Hyuga clan probably wouldn't want her to go to the battlefield.

Tsunade was quite open-minded in this regard.

"Yes!"

Rinka was stunned for a moment. She hadn't expected Tsunade to ask her to fight Kazuki, but this also suited her. She wanted to see the strength of Kazuki, the Uchiha's top genius.

It should be known that she was also considered the Hyuga's hidden top genius, and her strength was no less than Hiashi's, even though she was a year younger than him.

It was a good opportunity for the Hyuga clan's top genius to witness the Uchiha's top genius's strength.

Fugaku: I am the Uchiha's top genius.

Rinka looked at Kazuki with eyes full of fighting spirit, which made Kazuki sigh helplessly. Sure enough, Tsunade wouldn't make things easy for him.

"Then please enlighten me." Kazuki formed a confrontation seal towards Rinka.

Rinka returned the gesture, and then her figure transformed into a leopard, quickly approaching Kazuki and striking him with a palm.

Kazuki quickly blocked, entering into a taijutsu exchange with Rinka, continuously fending off her attacks.

For a time, the "thump-thump-thump" sounds on the training ground were incessant. This scene made Tsunade's expression subtle. Kazuki was stronger than Rinka, that was for sure.

Even though Kazuki was young, he already had the strength of a Chunin, but Rinka's performance exceeded her expectations. She was quite good.

The key was that the battle between Kazuki and Rinka resembled a battle between members of the Hyuga clan. If Kazuki had activated his Sharingan and used their own methods against them, Tsunade could understand, but Kazuki's Sharingan hadn't even been activated yet.

The Sharingan was not the Byakugan, which possessed terrifying insight. Kazuki was using the Hyuga clan's techniques to fight Rinka.

Anyone unaware would have thought Kazuki was also a Hyuga.

Fortunately, Kazuki was not using Gentle Fist, otherwise, the Hyuga clan would probably have caused an uproar.

Little did she know, Kazuki's situation was not as effortless as Tsunade imagined.

What he had to do was defeat Rinka with taijutsu, and he also had to guard against Rinka using pressure points to cut off his Chakra. If he stumbled in a ditch, it would be embarrassing.

Rinka continuously attacked, but the more she attacked, the more anxious and angry she became.

Kazuki seemed to understand Gentle Fist extremely well. Every time she attacked, Kazuki seemed to anticipate her movements and block her path.

The opponent's taijutsu was superior to hers, and he also understood Gentle Fist well. Rinka quickly realized this, but the more she did, the more unwilling she became.

In her relentless pursuit, she took a deep breath.

Gentle Fist: Eight Trigrams: Sixty-Four Palms.

Finally, she used it?

A smile appeared at the corner of Kazuki's lips. The moment Rinka's first palm landed on Kazuki's body, he dissolved into a Shadow Clone.

"A clone? Is this a Shadow Clone! When?" Rinka was startled.

Just as she opened and closed her eyes, trying to find Kazuki, Kazuki's voice suddenly rang out.

"Earth Release: Headhunter Jutsu."

Then, Rinka felt as if her ankle was grabbed by something. Before she could resist, she was dragged into the ground by this force, leaving only her head above the surface.

Kazuki's figure also appeared beside Rinka in time. Looking up at Kazuki's face from below, Rinka's face was filled with unwillingness.

"That's great, Kazuki, you won!" Kushina cheered, full of joy.

"Kushina, she's your teammate too!"

Tsunade rolled her eyes at Kushina in annoyance, then walked over to Rinka.

Cooperating with Kazuki, she pulled Rinka out. As she pulled Rinka up, she asked, "You used a single hand to form the seals for Shadow Clone and Transformation Jutsu earlier, using the stones by your feet to conceal it, but Rinka has the Byakugan. How did you know the Byakugan couldn't see through it?"
