Naruto: F**king Makes Me Stronger

Chapter 403 403: Hinata's Training

Shun released Hinata's hand, his gaze sweeping over the palace. "This is the ruin of the Otsutsuki Main Family on the Moon. The guardian power that Hamura left on the Moon has now become out-of-control puppets and those rebellious branch family descendants... Though they once occupied this place, they gradually withered away due to the characteristics of the Tenseigan."

"The characteristics of the Tenseigan?" Hinata asked curiously.

"Although the Tenseigan is powerful, it needs to constantly absorb Chakra and life force to sustain itself. This led to fewer and fewer clan members, and now only Toneri remains."

Suddenly, a "clank clank" of mechanical operation came from the direction of the palace, and dozens of dark figures rushed out from the palace gate, surging towards the two like a tide.

Hinata subconsciously took half a step back, her Byakugan instantly activating. In her clear, pale white pupils, the enemy's appearance was clearly reflected.

They were dozens of Ōtsutsuki puppets, tall in stature, wearing black headbands with a moon symbol on their foreheads, with thick limbs and even four arms.

At the joints of each arm, mechanisms were hidden, and at this moment, blades "swished" out, with a faint green glow on their edges, clearly laced with potent poison.

Shun took two steps back, crossed his arms, and said in a relaxed tone, "These are the guardian puppets left by the Main Family back then. Their four arms carry poisonous blades and can also fire energy orbs. They were originally used to defend against external enemies, but now they have become an ownerless threat."

"Hinata, they're yours. Purify the ruins left by your ancestors, and also hone your own combat power."

Hinata took a deep breath, suppressing the excitement and nervousness in her heart.

At this moment, she was no longer just training for the Ninja World, but also to protect her ancestors' legacy.

Although the Yin Three-Tails in her body had long been sealed, she had never slackened her training over the years, and the Hyuga clan's Gentle Fist Moves were already deeply ingrained in her mind.

She spread her feet, assuming the opening stance of the Eight Trigrams Palms, her long clothes and trousers gently fluttering in the Moon's breeze.

"Okay. Shun-sensei."

The first puppet rushed forward, its four arms swinging simultaneously, the poisonous saw blades slashing at Hinata's vital points. The blades cut through the air, emitting a piercing sharp sound.

Hinata's Byakugan precisely captured the trajectory of the saw blades. She nimbly dodged sideways, while her right hand formed a palm, carrying a gentle yet firm Chakra, and slammed it into the crystal on the puppet's chest. That was the puppet's energy core, and also the Chakra node left by her ancestors.

Her movements were as fast as lightning, her hands striking alternately, her palm strikes fierce yet gentle, each palm precisely landing on the puppet's Chakra nodes.

White Chakra surged into the puppet's body with the wind, both destroying the out-of-control mechanical structure and soothing the residual Chakra of her ancestors.

The yellow crystal on the puppet's chest dimmed, its four arms drooped weakly, and it crashed to the ground, turning into a pile of scrap metal.

Behind her, a humming sound of energy gathering came. Hinata turned to see three puppets simultaneously raising their chests, their yellow crystals glowing with dazzling light, and three yellow energy orbs sped towards her.

She tapped the ground with her toes, her body leaping up, spinning in the air to dodge the orbs. At the same time, she clasped her hands together, then suddenly separated them.

Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm!

Two transparent Chakra whistled out like invisible sharp blades, accurately hitting and shattering the crystals of two puppets.

The third puppet took the opportunity to close in, its four-armed blades simultaneously stabbing at her waist.

A sharp glint flashed in Hinata's eyes and she twisted her waist sharply, avoiding the blades, while her hands condensed Chakra, forming two lifelike lion heads.

Gentle Step Twin Lion Fists!

The lion heads, carrying immense Chakra, slammed into the puppet's chest, sending it flying and crashing heavily onto the rocks, its body shattering and completely losing the ability to move.

On the Moon's surface, Hinata's figure moved nimbly through the horde of puppets.

Although her long clothes and trousers were conservative, they did not restrict her movements in the slightest. Every dodge, jump, and palm strike carried the pride and composure of the Hyuga Main Family.

The insight of the Byakugan allowed her to anticipate the puppets' attacks, the Eight Trigrams Palms' defense was impenetrable, and the long-range attacks of the Vacuum Palm and the close-combat burst of the Twin Lion Fists were used interchangeably, creating a powerful display.

Shun stood still, his golden Rinnegan quietly observing the battle, with approval in his eyes.

He could see Hinata's progress, from her initial slight nervousness to her later composure. It was not just an improvement in combat skills, but also an awakening of her bloodline.

Her combat rhythm became steadier, her use of the Byakugan became more proficient, and her Chakra distribution became more reasonable.

Several tens of minutes later, the last puppet had its body shattered by Hinata's Gentle Step Twin Lion Fists, and crashed to the ground.

Hinata panted slightly, fine beads of sweat appearing on her forehead, and a flush on her cheeks, but she still stood perfectly straight.

She looked at the ancient palace, her eyes filled with reverence. "The ruins of my ancestors, I... I protected them."

Shun walked forward, raised his hand, and used Chakra to wipe the sweat from her temple, his voice gentle. "You did very well. Next, I'll take you to see the scenery of the moon, to relax a bit, and then to meet that last descendant of the branch family."

He took Hinata's hand and walked towards the other side of the Moon.

There were no barren rocks there. The distant craters resembled natural lakes, reflecting the blue silhouette of Earth. This was the site of the Main Family's courtyard back then, and although things had changed, a trace of peace still remained.

Hinata's eyes were filled with wonder. She gently released Shun's hand and walked to a crystal tree, raising her hand to touch the cool crystal trunk. Her fingertips could feel a faint Chakra fluctuation, the residual aura of her ancestors.

A gentle smile appeared on her face. "It's so beautiful here. So this is where my ancestors lived."

Shun stood behind her, his gaze directed towards the core area of the palace in the distance. "The beauty of the moon is hidden in these forgotten corners, and also in your bloodline. However, we still have an 'old acquaintance' to meet... Toneri, the only remaining descendant of the branch family."

As his voice fell, he once again created a portal, leading Hinata into it.

This time, the two arrived at the core area of the palace.

On a high platform in the center of the hall sat a man dressed in a white robe. He also wore a black headband with a moon symbol on his forehead, his eyes were closed, and pale green Chakra surrounded him.

It was Toneri.

As the two stepped into the hall, he slowly opened his eyes.

They were Tenseigan, with pale blue pupils, emitting an eerie glow, yet also harboring a trace of imperceptible loneliness.

"Shun, Byakugan Princess, I didn't expect you to come here." Toneri's voice was cold.

As his gaze fell on the two, a hint of surprise flashed in his Tenseigan.
