At the same time, Shinichi and Kai approached Shisui one after another. After Shinichi reached Shisui, he bowed slightly and apologized:

"I'm sorry, I don't have a clear understanding of the power of this technique."

"I shouldn't have used such a technique on my partner. It's a good thing that Shisui-ge just showed me mercy."

"I'm so sorry."

Although his ninjutsu didn't harm Shisui at all, using such a ninjutsu, which he himself couldn't control, during sparring was ultimately Shinichi's problem. Shisui wasn't injured because he was strong enough; another ninja might not have been so lucky.

Ultimately, the reason this accident occurred during the exercise is still due to Shinichi's problem.

"it's okay no problem."

"You didn't do it on purpose, and I'm not hurt, so don't worry about it, Shinichi."

As always, Shisui was gentle. Facing Shinichi Hyuga, who was five years younger than him, Shisui showed kindness and spoke kindly.

"Let's stop the sparring here for now. Although it started off a bit anticlimactic, we've at least gotten to know each other a little better."

"As for the next steps in getting to know each other, I will ask the Fourth Generation for a few simple tasks."

"You should use the enemy to test your ninjutsu from now on."

At this moment, Aburame Shiki also tried to smooth things over, glossing over Shinichi's mistake in his words. He had also realized that Shinichi lacked awareness of the power of his own ninjutsu, and if they continued sparring, there was no guarantee that an accident wouldn't happen.

What's worse, Shinichi has mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique, so even a seasoned Jonin like him can't control the situation.

For safety reasons, Shii Aburame announced the end of the sparring session.

However, although the battle was brief, the team members gained a basic understanding of their teammates' abilities.

For a small team, this is enough for now.

In fact, during wartime, ninjas died every day, and countless squads went through the process of being dismantled and reorganized every day.

Amidst the busy battle, squad members didn't have much time to get to know each other.

Shinichi's squad is actually quite special at this juncture.

After the sparring session ended, the team did not disperse. In order to get closer to everyone, Aburame Shiki invited them to his home.

Aburame Shiki is the son of the current head of the Aburame clan. His residence is quite large, and even after Konoha was redeployed, the clan's territory is still located in the central area of ​​Konoha. Not far from the residence is a bustling street.

The thoughtful Zhiwei prepared a gift for each team member.

He gave Kai a pair of dragon-mouth nunchucks; he gave Shinichi a set of specially made half-armor; and he gave Shisui a chakra dagger mixed with special iron ore.

The recipients were all delighted. Shisui even considered refusing the gift because it was too valuable, but he was forced to accept the dagger by Shiwei's insistence.

The gifts that Yu Nu Zhiwei sent were quite extravagant.

Neither those nunchucks nor Shinichi's special armor were ordinary items.

The true meaning of it is for the user to experience for themselves.

This was the first time Shinichi had ever received such a gift in his life, and after expressing his gratitude, he gladly accepted it.

After having lunch at the oil lady's house, the team members left one after another.

Back home, Shinichi tried on the specially made armor.

The armor was custom-made for him, protecting his vital parts without hindering Shinichi's movements.

As Shinichi grows older, this half-armor set will not be obsolete; only the straps need to be replaced and the elbow, arm, and knee pads need to be remade.

Standing in front of the mirror wearing half-armor, looking at himself, Shinichi truly felt that the battlefield was getting closer and closer.

In the following days, the team members often got together.

During the days of waiting for mission instructions, Shinichi practiced diligently. However, now when he was training, Shinichi would wear armor to get used to the subtle effects that the protective gear had on him.

However, as time passed, before the day the team was to be dispatched on a mission arrived, his mother, Hyuga Hanako, gave birth first.

December 27th.

The cries of a newborn baby echoed through the Hyuga main family compound, and Shinichi Hyuga officially became the "elder brother".

Hanako gave birth to a girl, who was named Hinata Hyuga. Hinata's pronunciation is similar to Hinata, and it means "a place where the sun shines."

The name Hinata implies Hiashi and Hanako's expectations for her, hoping that their child will always be protected by the "Hyuga" family.

"Shinichi, from today onwards, you can love and care for your little sister!"

"You are the eldest son and the future heir of our Hyuga family. This is both your responsibility and your duty."

In the room, Shinichi sat by Hanako's bed, looking at the wrinkled little baby with a smile on his face.

Hiashi gently patted Shinichi's shoulder and softly gave him some advice.

………………

Chapter 53 First Mission!

Although Hinata Hyuga's birth did not cause the same shock as Shinichi's birth, it still received enthusiastic congratulations from all branches of the Hyuga family.

For a family like the Hyuga clan, a large and prosperous main branch is always a good thing.

Moreover, as for Hiashi Hyuga's own family, he also hoped to have both a son and a daughter, and to live a happy old age surrounded by his children and grandchildren.

Hinata's birth also fulfilled his life in a way.

Even though Shinichi was busy with his training, he would still make time every day after Hinata's birth to help his mother take care of his younger sister.

Although Hanako had maids from the branch family helping her take care of her, outsiders are still outsiders. No matter how diligently they did their job, Hanako was still more at ease with her own son.

Several weeks passed quietly, and Hinata, whose face was originally wrinkled, gradually grew up, becoming fair and tender, which made her very popular with Hiashi and Hanako.

Shinichi was no different. He had never personally experienced caring for an infant, even in his previous life. Sometimes, holding the soft and boneless Hinata, Shinichi Hyuga became increasingly aware of the "responsibility" he bore on his shoulders.

Brother...

Being a good older brother is not an easy thing.

While Shinichi Hyuga was enjoying a warm family life, the situation in the ninja world was quietly changing.

The fundamental conflict that led to the Third Shinobi World War was the struggle for resources between major powers.

The Land of Fire, due to its powerful national strength, occupies one of the most fertile regions in the entire world.

The disappearance of the Third Kazekage was merely the fuse for the Ninja War. In order to appease the ordinary ninjas and the public who were unsettled by the loss of the Kazekage, the Sand Village leadership chose to divert internal conflicts by waging war against external forces.

The Land of Fire, rich in land and waste resources, naturally became their target.

After the Sand Village and Konoha went to war, other major powers also became eager to join the fray. The Land of Earth, the Land of Lightning, and the Land of Water also joined the battle, participating in the division of the Land of Fire.

The Ninja World War was thus ignited.

To withstand the powerful forces from all sides, Konoha Village naturally deployed its elite troops. In the early stages of the Ninja War, Konoha's White Fang killed the son and daughter-in-law of Sand Village's Elder Chiyo, crushing the morale of the Sand Village in one battle.

As the war continued to escalate, Konoha stabilized the situation after suffering heavy casualties.

Minato Namikaze performed brilliantly in the Fourth Shinobi World War, helping Konoha win the Battle of Kannabi Bridge. Not only did he help Konoha win the Battle of Kannabi Bridge, but his team, which partnered with Jiraiya, also managed to escape unscathed after being surrounded by two Jinchuriki from Iwagakure.

Meanwhile, Minato also intimidated the Kumogakure's Abby duo on another battlefield, leading to a tacit understanding between the two sides and easing the pressure on that front.

Escaping the encirclement of the Iwa ninja Jinchuriki and intimidating the Abby duo foreshadowed the later falling out between the Iwa and Kumo ninja.

When Minato became famous during the Ninja War, Konoha's genin Might Guy opened all eight gates to protect his son, directly crippling the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.

After several major battles, the terrifying results achieved by Konoha thwarted the plans of other major powers to carve up the territory.

As the situation has evolved to this point, the Sand Village has been defeated by the Leaf Village, and the Land of Wind, a country already severely lacking in resources, is no longer able to support the Sand Village in their war effort.

The Sand Village and Konoha signed a peace treaty, becoming allies.

The battle lines between the Land of Earth and the Land of Lightning became deadly feuds because the Third Raikage was surrounded and killed by a force of 10,000 Iwa ninja.

Although both sides still have minor frictions with Konoha, the strategic focus of these two major powers is on each other.

With the pressure on several fronts reduced significantly, Konoha was given a chance to recuperate.

Now, Konoha's greatest enemy is actually the Land of Water.

However, Konoha Village had an overwhelming advantage over Kirigakure. In the eyes of Minato and other high-ranking officials, the threat posed by Kirigakure was nothing more than a minor ailment.

Against this backdrop of the Ninja War, Shinichi Hyuga's squad received their first mission since the squad was formed.

"Dismantle the bandits?!"

In the Hokage's office, Aburame Shiki, who had just received the mission assignment, quickly glanced at the mission details and murmured to herself with a hint of unease.

The Third Shinobi World War lasted for several years, and order was disrupted in many regions due to the war.

During the Ninja Wars, many deserters and rogue ninjas emerged from various ninja villages. These rogue ninjas gathered in twos and threes to form bandit gangs, making a living by plundering.

As the situation in the Land of Fire gradually stabilizes, these bandit groups that disrupt local order naturally become a thorn in the side of those in power.

Inside the office, the entire Aburame Shinobu squad was present, and in addition to them, Hyuga Hiashi also made an inappropriate appearance in the Hokage's office.

The mission for the Zhiwei team was carefully selected by Minato and approved by Nissai before it was decided to be assigned.

The mission objective is a bandit group of about twenty people.

The leaders were three Konoha rogue ninja; the rest were just a group of strong rogue ninja who had gathered together, and were not ninjas at all.

These rogue ninjas were all Chunin during their time in Konoha, and their strength and qualities were only so-so.
