Chapter 57: The Birth of Sister Complex

After relentless efforts from Sakura and the others, they finally managed to ask Hinata about the reason for her bad mood. Several of them felt helpless upon hearing the reason.

Hinata's personality is particularly kind, which makes her always reluctant to hurt others, even when sparring with others. However, the problem is that if Hinata were just an ordinary ninja from a civilian family, her personality would not be a problem. She could just become a lower-ranked ninja or a Chunin and only execute non-lethal missions. But as the eldest daughter of the Hyuga clan head and the future manager of the Hyuga family, she cannot be too kind if she wants to manage a large family.

Hyuga Hiashi has been worried about this issue for a long time and has talked to Hinata about it many times, but to no avail.

"And, there's one more thing!"

Hinata suddenly looked embarrassed. "Something has happened to me recently!"

As she spoke, Hinata extended her right hand, and everyone saw her index and middle fingers slowly crystallizing.

"Just a few days ago, I discovered that I can turn a small part of my body into this..."

Hinata bit her lower lip. The Hyuga clan's Kekkei Genkai is the Byakugan, which is well known. But she inexplicably developed another special ability. When it first appeared, it frightened Hinata, but she didn't dare to tell Hyuga Hiashi about it. After all, Kekkei Genkai is passed down through bloodlines, but Hyuga Hiashi doesn't have this ability. If she has this Kekkei Genkai, does that mean she's not his biological daughter?!

Young Hinata instantly imagined countless love and hate stories in her mind. She was afraid of facing Hyuga Hiashi, and even her daily training would become distracted. The pressure weighed heavily on her, making her feel suffocated.

"Is this a Kekkei Genkai?" Sasuke frowned. "Isn't the Hyuga clan's Kekkei Genkai the Byakugan? I've never heard of any other Kekkei Genkai in the Hyuga clan."

"No, this isn't a Kekkei Genkai!"

Sakura stared at the crystallized part of Hinata's hand with a happy expression. Hinata's ability reminded her of a character from the Marvel Universe - the White Queen. One of the White Queen's abilities is diamond form, which can turn her entire body into a diamond. In diamond form, her body is almost invulnerable, can withstand tremendous force, doesn't tire, doesn't need water or food, and is immune to mental attacks. Especially the immunity to mental attacks, this ability is almost like a bug in the Hokage world.

"This isn't a Kekkei Genkai?" Hinata's heart suddenly tightened. If this isn't a Kekkei Genkai, it means this ability isn't passed down through bloodlines. Then her bloodline is pure Hyuga clan bloodline, and her father is her biological father.

At this moment, Hyuga Hiashi, who didn't know he had been betrayed by his daughter once, suddenly shuddered.

"Well, do you remember why I asked everyone to practice chakra together?" Sakura said. "It looks like my plan worked!"

"You mean this is the thing you said that can quickly improve our strength?" Shikamaru and the others looked at Hinata's diamond-like fingers with curiosity.

'I have six Infinity Stones, and one of them, the Mind Stone, contains huge energy. This energy can give people special abilities, but I can't control what abilities they will develop!'

Sakura didn't know what abilities Naruto and the others would develop, but Hinata's ability seemed to be suitable for her.

"Hinata, you don't have to worry. This ability is very powerful and suits you well..."

Sakura briefly introduced the diamondization ability, causing the others to gasp in shock. Fortunately, she had released a bit of energy around them, so the ANBU behind them couldn't hear anything.

"You see, Hinata, your kindness makes you vulnerable. This diamondization ability can protect you and is perfect for you..."

"Can it protect me?" Hinata's eyes gradually lit up. She didn't like attacking others and was good at silently guarding. This ability to turn her body into a diamond seemed to be tailor-made for her.

"But Hinata, even with the diamondization ability, you can't let your guard down. It can protect you, but it can't protect others!"

Seeing Hinata's expression when she talked about protecting others, Sakura suddenly had an idea.

"By the way, Hanabi is so cute!"

"She's really cute!" Although Sakura's sudden change of topic confused Hinata, when she heard about her newborn sister Hanabi, her heart softened. That soft little bundle of joy was her sister.

"If someone wants to hurt Hanabi, what would you do?" Sakura gradually influenced Hinata's thinking.

"No one can hurt Hanabi!" Hinata tightened her fists. Her soft little sister who always smiled at her like a bun, if someone hurt her, she would be heartbroken.

"So Hinata, you want to protect Hanabi, right?" Seeing Hinata's expression, Sakura knew that things were going well. "But the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan is something many people want. When the time comes, Hanabi may be kidnapped by bad guys, and those bad people will be cruel enough to dig out Hanabi's eyes. Hinata, do you want to see that happen?"

"No, I will protect Hanabi, and no one can hurt her!" Hinata's heart tightened again. She thought of the time she was kidnapped by Hidden Cloud Village a year ago. Fortunately, she was rescued, but if Hanabi were also kidnapped and not rescued in time, would she end up like Sakura said, with her eyes cruelly dug out?!

Thinking of Hanabi being kidnapped and her eyes being dug out, Hinata felt panicked. She didn't want anyone to hurt her sister.

"So Hinata, you have to work hard to become stronger to protect Hanabi!" Seeing Hinata's reaction, Sakura breathed a sigh of relief. She finally found a way to persuade Hinata. But she didn't expect Hinata to have a hidden sister complex.

"As long as you become strong enough, you can protect Hanabi from wind and rain and keep her safe!"

Sakura quietly dissipated the power of the Mind Stone. If she hadn't influenced Hinata's mood with the Mind Stone, making her seem to have really seen the scene of Hanabi being hurt, it wouldn't have been so easy to persuade her.

"As long as I become strong enough, I can protect Hanabi?" Hinata clenched her fists. She must protect her sister and not let anyone hurt her.
