4. Growth and the Hyuga Clan's non-innovative-ness

AN: I just wanted to say that I'm really really sorry for kinda sh*tting other fanfics. I really don't want to, but I don't know how to portray what I wanted without using them as examples.

I wanted to do something different from other fanfics and I genuinely think that Hyuga clan techniques are actually really solid. I think the reason why don't get as much recognition is that whenever Hyuga clan members are on screen, they're either children who hasn't learned much or they are almost always seen together with monsters like Naruto or Madara or Guy or someone stupidity strong.

Again, I'm really really really sorry. (⁠;⁠ŏ⁠﹏⁠ŏ⁠)(⁠;⁠ŏ⁠﹏⁠ŏ⁠)

AN2: Just in case you guys don't know, < {Insert technique name} series> , means there's a few more varients of that technique.

45 minutes later, Shizue is lying on the floor, breathing heavily.

"Puff-puff-huff-huff I can't move a muscle! And my whole body hurts! Even my tongue hurts!!.I think I'm gonna die!!.

Shizuka Hyuga(MC's momma) picks her up and says-

"You're being overdramatic again.Come on let's get you cleaned up. We have to go out and buy Young lady Hinata's Birthday gift. Don't you want to get close to her too?? ;)"

"I-I don't know what you are talking about mom"

"Fu~fu~fu. I can't say all but I do know some of what's going on in your little head. Do you think I'll miss all the signs like when your gaze never leaving her when we visited clan head's house, and your dreamy smile that whole day?? ."

"Mom!!! I'm three!!!"

"Age is but a number ;) "

And so, while arguing back and forth, the mother and daughter pair arrived at the bathroom.

"And....now is time for your mommy to wash you clean."

"No! I can do it myself!!"

"Ara~ara, now that you've found your love, you are pushing your mommy away already huh.You are making this old lady sad, sniff~sniff"

(An: EVERY MILF and Onee-sans HAVE to say Ara~ara. That's THE LAW!!)

"Gee, wonder where my overdramatic-ness comes from"

{Mc internal monologue}

The past three years have gone quite well. Life is good and Raphael and I (mainly Raphael)have been researching stuff to improve my combat prowess and to better understand how everything works in this universe.I can already activate my Byakugan at one year old. I didn't accidentally activate it, Raphael just told me I can.So I didn't freak my parents out. And I proceeded to ask Raphael if she can find a way so that I can use it without the veins protruding around my eyes. She told me that I don't have to worry about that and it will solve itself in a couple of months. She said she's guiding nature energy to fix all the imperfections of the body and making them better, like making the chakra pathways wider, more durable, correcting the slight deviations and other stuff.

Turns out, chakra pathways are not hollow tubes in our bodies, they are corporeal streams of chakra connecting 361 tenketsu points and chakra centre.They too are not physical things, they are just there in our bodies. Like dantain and meridians from those cultivation novels. That's why only techniques that release chakra externally and seals can block or interact with them. If not ,one cut and your Chakra flow will be messed up.

Anyways, because of this, a couple of months later, my eyes only have slightly more visible pupils when using Byakugan, no veins and stuff. Not only that, the blind spot on the nape is also getting smaller and smaller as the imperfections in my body are slowly but surely being fixed. So I've been using Byakugan to let Raphael analyze Gentle Fist and other techniques Hyuga clan uses. My thought was that I would let Raphael analyze those techniques and fix the so many flaws those techniques would have cause Hyuga clan is 'Traditional' and 'do not strive to improve' right? and ask Raphael to develop long bow techniques and stuff like those fanfics said. But than, I realized that I have been reading too many fanfics. And boy-oh-boy are those fanfics wrong.

Let me tell you this, the don't innovate because they don't NEED to.They have almost all the bases covered with their techniques. They may not innovate but had honed their techniques almost to perfection generation after generation. Even Raphael said that it was almost perfect, well, for regular human practice at least. When I asked for her modified and perfected version, she showed me the names, position, movement and role of each and every muscle fibers ligaments and bones along with longa*s complex looking mathematical formulas. And when I said that I didn't understand it, she made a new training method named {Combat techniques for dumb people} and also started teaching me maths, biology and physics. And I'm like...really n*gga!???.

Back to the topic, for your run of the mill ninja (like up to ordinary Jonins), a few hits from one of those MFs and you're screwed. And their techniques uses so little chakra and stamina that they can keep fighting for hours until their eyes gives out. Chakra Cloak?, threre's {Eight trigrams: Vacuum Palm} series and {Gentle step: Twin lion fists} series.

Long Bow? Have you ever heard of any competent ninja dying to a single arrow?? And Byakugan's range is only about 1km even for really strong Hyuga clan members. A Shinobi of that caliber can cross that distance quite quickly. So it's not really worth it. Shurikens and Senbon needle would do just fine. And the Eight Trigrams symbol visual effect when they use {Eight Trigrams: 16,32,64,128 palms} is not just for show. It is like their domain: they have pinpoint accuracy vision to attack, dodge, and defend in this domain. And the reason Hyuga clan members doesn't learn other ninjutsu techniques is that a human can only learn so much in his lifetime. Why learn other things when you can learn your clan's techniques that works really well with your kekkei genkai and does the job just fine?. As they say, don't fix it if it aren't broken. What I want to convey here is that Hyuga clan members know what they are doing!!. Well, except for the Caged bird seal. That's just power-hungry politicians doing power-hungry politician things(same as everywhere).

Anyways, that's that. And I also found out that Hyuga clan's bloodline is not just about Byakugan, it also let them expel chakra from any of the tenketsu points in their bodies. I thought everyone could do that, haha. They use that ability to perform techniques like {Vacuum Palm} series and {Revolving Heaven} series. First one eject chakra explosively from tenketsu point in their palms and second one eject dense chakra streams from tenketsu points all over their body and spins around really fast.(I personally think this one is initially developed as kinda a panic button. Imagine you are in a really tight situation, you can just use this jutsu and buy yourself several seconds to think!. I just don't think that this jutsu is created to cover up the blind spot. If you can't see the attack coming, how are you going to use that jutsu.). So yeah, I found out about a bunch of things during these years.

And my chakra reserves are at the levels of 8 year olds inside the clan so, not bad I guess. And it is also Senjutsu chakra, so that's that. My senses are really sharp and my body is also very strong, durable and generally just better than the others, cause permanent sage mode, nature energy and stuff. It doesn't affect my body's growth rate tho, it only makes it better, Raphael is making sure of that. Don't know how it works but it's a good thing. Raphael told me that my body is adapting to drawing nature energy and starting to draw in nature energy by itself. For now, it's too little that it wouldn't make a difference but, it's a good start!. Raphael also estimate that my body may develop to automatically make Senjutsu chakra by drawing in nature energy without Raphael's help!.It's not a certainty but it's something look forward to in the future.

Right now, by myself I could probably beat up a 7-8 years old kid. Not clan kids, just normal civilian kids ^⁠_⁠^. I know it's not something to be proud of, but , it is what it is ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯. But!! with {Auto battle mode}, I would be able to defeat an ordinary chunin in a frontal battle. Raphael's simulations estimated that. While my physical body and chakra reserves are miles apart compared to a chunin but in {Auto Battle Mode}, my techniques are what can be called the pinnacle of perfection.So yeah I can decimate a chunin even with the physical body and chakra reserves gap. And, if I use my Super-duper-ultra trump card, I should be able to assassinate a Kage. That trump card is of course, the {Truth seeking orb}. Yeah, I can use that. Well, technically I can't?..... Basically, Raphael can use that for me. But she advised me to learn how to do that my self as there's a tiny lag when she's the one doing the work. Same with combat techniques. It wouldn't matter in the low level fights now but in future the high speed battles, it can be detrimental. That's why I've been training so hard with chakra control exercises and combact techniques. Gotta prepare as early as possible!. And I have the best possible teacher {Raphael} so my progress is really fast.

Back to the Truth seeking orb. Well... technically,... it might be better to call it a {Truth Seeking Speck}.....

........

{Flashback to a little over 1year ago}

'Wait (⁠☉⁠｡⁠☉⁠)⁠! I have all chakra nature transformations!! So can I use truth Seeking orbs?? Raphael!??'

[Answer: Checking all informations on {Truth Seeking Orbs} ... insufficient information to utilize {Truth Seeking Orbs}.... Acquiring more information from {All of Creation}.... successful!]

'Well, guess all those reading around in "Narutopidia" are showing their worth now huh.'

[Manifestation of Truth seeking orbs involve ((k+2) (1 - [wz + h + j - q]^2 - [(gk + 2g + k + 1)(h + j) + h - z]^2 - [16(k + 1)^3(k + 2)(n + 1)^2 + 1 - f^2]^2 -[2n + p ..]

'Ok-ok stop. Damn, I couldn't understand half of what she's saying lately. Am I too dumb?? Nah!, Raphael is just too smart. Yeah...that must be it. Okay Raphael, how long is that gonna take'

[Answer: Normally, the {bloodline encompassing} handles all the necessary procedures and directly manifest the {Truth Seeking Orbs} based on the amount of chakra one possesses but I will have to do all the necessary procedures step by step so the estimated time of completion is about 4 and a half months]

{4.5 months later}

[Alert: {PROJECT:Heh, I'm OP now} is finished. Manifest a {Truth Seeking Orb}?]

<looks right-looks left and repeat>

'Ok, my parents aren't near. Do IT!!.'

[Manifesting {Truth Seeking Orb}... Complete.]

^⁠_⁠^

[=⁠_⁠=]

'.....soooo.....where is it??'

[Answer: Right in front of you.]

(↼⁠_⁠↼⁠)

<Sees a black pallet about 1mm in diameter infront for him>

'WHAT THE ACTUAL F*CK IS THIS!!! This aren't a {Truth Seeking Orb}...it's a {Truth Seeking Speck}!!!!!'

{End of Flashback}

........

{Back to MC's internal monologue}

'Yeah....But hey! It might be small but it's really really deadly. If Raphael coated it with nature energy and launch it at high speeds, then threre's no one currently who can sense it coming or block it. So yeah, it's my trump card for emergencies.

Ok that's enough thinking about the past and combat prowess, it's about time I think about truly important things like.....What gifts should I buy for Hinata's Birthday.....??...

.....END.....
