章 12: Chapter 12: Meeting Hiashi
Naruto: "..."
Unable to win the argument and feeling frustrated, Naruto could only sulk on his own.
Time passed quickly, and before they knew it, it was almost time to return to school.
Meanwhile, at the Hyuga household...
Hiashi calmly sipped his tea while casting a faint glance at Ryujiro seated across from him.
Outside the door, Hinata was feeling restless and anxious. She had suddenly received news that her father wanted to see Ryujiro. Could it be because of their frequent interactions?
"Don't worry, sister. Father won't make things difficult for your boyfriend," reassured the petite and lovely Hanabi.
Hinata blushed shyly at her sister's words, her face turning red.
"Don't talk nonsense, Hanabi. Me and Ryujiro..."
Hinata's voice trailed off, growing quieter as she spoke. Hanabi knew her sister's personality well. Though Hinata used to be timid, she had changed significantly since meeting Ryujiro.
In this world, as women mature early. Even though Hanabi was aware of Hinata's relationship with Ryujiro, she didn't say much about it.
"It's because of you that my daughter has changed so much," Hiashi said with a hint of severity in his eyes, exerting the aura of a high-ranking ninja.
However, even facing such a high-ranking ninja, Ryujiro was confident enough to believe he could defeat Hiashi. So, when talking to him, Ryujiro remained unchanged.
"She chose to change herself, not because of me," Ryujiro said calmly, meeting Hiashi's gaze.
A hint of surprise flashed in Hiashi's eyes, as he began to regard Ryujiro with even more respect. Could a kid have such composure and attitude?
He had witnessed Hinata's personality changing day by day, and he had once considered giving up on her.
Before meeting Ryujiro, Hinata couldn't even defeat her sister Hanabi, let alone Neji.
If it weren't for Neji being from a branch family, Hiashi would have considered focusing more on his training.
But as time passed, Hiashi noticed a change in his daughter. She became stronger, shedding her previous weakness visibly.
Almost every day, Hiashi watched Hinata train diligently in the family dojo, and her strength grew rapidly.
During a real battle with Neji, he witnessed Hinata completely overpowering him, leaving him defenseless.
This made Hiashi curious. What had caused such a huge change in his once timid daughter?
Upon investigation, Hiashi discovered that his daughter had been in close contact with a civilian student at school, and what surprised him even more was that this civilian student turned out to be a prodigy.
He had defeated Sasuke and even Neji.
When he learned that Ryujiro's strength was already comparable to that of a Jonin, Hiashi was stunned for a long time before regaining his composure.
A Jonin at the age of eight, a genius even surpassing Kakashi?
And Ryujiro's specialty was not ninjutsu but swordsmanship. Was Konoha about to produce another figure like Kakashi's father?
After careful consideration, Hiashi wanted to meet this extraordinary young man.
Upon seeing Ryujiro for the first time, Hiashi couldn't help but feel that he was unusually mature.
After conversing for about half an hour, Hiashi looked at Ryujiro seriously and said, "I don't oppose you being with Hinata, but take care of her, because she is my daughter."
Ryujiro lowered his eyes and sipped his tea, his dark green eyes exuding allure.
"As long as I'm here, Hinata won't suffer any harm," Ryujiro said earnestly, putting Hiashi's mind at ease.
As the door opened, Hinata and Hanabi, who had been eavesdropping, lost their balance and fell to the ground.
Especially Hinata, when she looked up at the tall figure of Ryujiro, blushed deeply.
The embarrassed Hinata hurriedly ran back to her room.
"Well, then, I'll take my leave, Hyuga-sama."
"Mm."
Watching Ryujiro's figure recede, Hiashi couldn't help but sigh.
Having the strength of Jonin at the age of eight... Did the Third Hokage want to groom this kid to be the Hokage?
However, Ryujiro had no interest in becoming Hokage. He just wanted to become stronger, continuously stronger!
What's the use of being Hokage? During the Fourth Great Ninja War, the so-called Hokage were powerless against Uchiha Madara, let alone the other members of the Akatsuki.
And in the later battles against Kaguya Otsutsuki, they seemed insignificant.
Moreover, Ryujiro didn't feel any sense of belonging to Konoha itself.
If Konoha's dark hands reached out to him, he wouldn't care about the village. Even if he became a rough ninja, so what?
Only strength mattered.
Right now, the primary goal was to raise the progress of the Mihawk template to 100% and unlock the second character template.
Even in his prime, Mihawk's strength was at most comparable to a high level Kage. But if he wanted to confront monsters like Otsutsuki, he was still weak.
Before unlocking the second template, if he had the chance to meet Jiraiya, he would ask him about Sage Mode and Senjutsu Chakra.
With Sage Mode, even without unlocking his second template, his strength could be greatly increased.
Right now, he was only at the beginning of his journey, and those monstrous beings were unlikely to appear. The Kage's are still an absolute powerhouse at this stage.
Ryujiro's figure appeared on the village road, and at that moment, a voice called out to him.
With his trademark short sleeves and unique black spiky hair...
"It's Sasuke!"
A smile appeared on Ryujiro's face, but he also felt a little surprised.
"Is what my brother said true?"
"Has your strength really reached the level of Jonin?"
Sasuke looked at Ryujiro with unwillingness in his eyes, feeling a bit bitter.
As a member of the Uchiha clan, he was proud of his identity.
The Uchiha clan had produced many geniuses—Uchiha Madara, Uchiha Shisui, his brother... And before Ryujiro entered school, he was also a genius of the Uchiha clan.
But since Ryujiro entered school, his brilliance as a genius had been gradually overshadowed.
After losing to Ryujiro, Sasuke's pride suffered an unprecedented blow.
"Well, perhaps I was no match for Itachi last time, but now I have the power to fight him," Ryujiro said calmly, causing Sasuke's eyes to shrink suddenly.
How is that possible!
