The Road to the Throne of White Eyes

After the trial of the bandit suppression mission, Hinata Feng officially joined the cannon fodder ninja team and began his life as a slave in Konoha.

During this period, Hinata Feng's daily routine, apart from suppressing bandits, was mostly patrolling around Konoha Village and secretly searching for and hunting down infiltrating spies. He basically had no rest at all.

In just a few months, they experienced several thrilling battles.

After the Nine-Tails Rebellion a few years ago, the villagers of Konoha were already skeptical about their safety. The recent espionage incident has intensified their suspicions and insecurity, and they are eager for a stable and peaceful life.

In this situation, Konoha Village must take some substantial actions to respond to those doubts and expectations.

Therefore, under the eager expectations of the villagers, the top leaders of Konoha Village made a great determination and took major actions to eliminate spies and bandits with extraordinary efforts and long-term efforts, and further promote the safety and stability of Konoha Village.

Yes, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen made a great decision, so Hinata Feng and his group of small soldiers had to put in a lot of effort, do big things, and were used like oxen and horses.

During repeated explorations, tracking, and battles, Hinata Feng had to show more strength. He was proficient in exploration, killing enemies, rescuing, and medical treatment for teammates. It seemed that his strength was improving rapidly in actual combat. He gradually grew from a green novice to an excellent ninja who could stand on his own on the battlefield.

However, the performance of his two supporting teammates was much worse, and they were a bit unable to keep up with Hyuga Feng's style. After all, not everyone is Minato Namikaze who can stand out from the civilian ninjas.

Early in the morning of that day, Hinata Feng set out on patrol again. They first had to patrol several main commercial streets of Konoha, and then patrol the easily hidden areas around the village. It basically took a whole day.

Old dog Sarutobi, you really treat me like a donkey. Hinata Feng gritted his teeth secretly and beat the old monkey in his heart, but his face was calm and composed, as if he was patrolling and observing seriously.

In his previous life, he was a social person tempered by alcohol. He had experienced many strange leaders and had learned to coordinate himself long ago. He knew how to make himself look busy on the surface, while secretly slacking off without making a sound.

What's more, these tasks are now child's play for Hinata Feng, whose real strength is between the level of Jonin and elite Jonin.

Therefore, Hinata Feng could still cope with his work while simulating battles in his mind and comprehending martial arts. Although he had extraordinary qualifications and extraordinary comprehension, he did not have Shenlan, so he could only improve little by little on his own.

In the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun cast dappled light on the quiet forest, and the leaves swayed gently in the breeze. The Hyuga Wind Team patrolled the dense forest outside Konoha Village and was about to complete their day's mission.

At that moment, Hinata's intuition alerted him that something was amiss: an enemy was within thirty meters. He immediately exchanged a subtle glance with the chunin captain, Kobayashi Yoshiyasu, and at the same time, seemingly unintentionally, snapped his left fingers three times—their pre-agreed signal.

Kobayashi Yoshiyasu was very experienced and there was no sign of abnormality at all. Inoue Nobuyuki and Tanakagawa had much worse control. Although their expressions did not change, their hands unconsciously touched the blades at their waists.

At this moment, the enemy launched the first attack! With the cry of Thunder Release—Lightning Wave—a blinding flash of lightning pierced the air. Inoue Nobu was struck head-on and fell to the ground, wounded and groaning in pain. Tanaka Kawano was much luckier, having stepped back in time. He was only slightly affected, his body temporarily numb.

At this time, two masked ninjas wearing cloud forehead protectors rushed out from a tree about ten meters in front of the left, approaching quickly with short blades in their hands.

"Go! Chuan, send out the signal quickly."

Kobayashi Yoshiyasu decisively stepped forward, holding a ninja sword and facing the enemy who rushed in front. The two figures crossed each other, and the ninja swords collided with a harsh metal clang, and for a moment, the fight was difficult to resolve.

"Go to hell!"

The slightly lagging Cloud Ninja rushed straight towards Tanakagawa and slashed with his sword. The two Cloud Ninjas moved swiftly and fiercely, and each blow was full of deadly threats.

"Blind eyes!"

Hinata Feng formed seals with his hands, channeling his chakra. Veins bulged around his eye sockets, and he quickly joined the fray, using his soft fist—Baguazhang—to intercept the enemy's attacks. As for being a Cloud Ninja, he'd better put in a little more effort and eliminate him to avenge his original family.

The two Kumo ninjas lurking around Konoha Village both appeared to be chunin. After a few exchanges, Hinata Feng came to a conclusion and felt relieved. However, his teammates weren't up to par. Inoue Nobu was completely unable to move, Tanakagawa was still paralyzed, and Kobayashi Yoshiyasu was gradually losing ground in the battle and had sustained some injuries.

"I still have to rely on myself!" Hinata Feng thought to himself, and used more strength, stepped on the mysterious footwork, avoided the enemy's attack, and used the soft fist Bagua palm from behind him - thirty-two palms!

The Cloud Ninja did not expect that Hinata Feng had such strength at his age. He was hit instantly, and then suffered a series of Baguazhang attacks. Finally, his internal organs ruptured and he fell down unwillingly.

After knocking down an enemy, Hinata Feng didn't stop, but immediately turned and rushed to the battlefield on the side, cooperating with Captain Kobayashi Yoshiyasu to complete the final kill. Only then did Tanakagawa's body relax, took out a flare from his ninja bag, and was stunned.

The battle was over, and Hinata Feng immediately rushed to Inoue Nobu and started first aid. This cannon fodder Genin posed no threat to him and was not an enemy, so he had to be saved if possible.

On the side, Yoshiyasu Kobayashi bandaged himself skillfully. He had experienced many battles and knew some basic first aid.

"I'm sorry, I'm holding you back," Tanakagawa said with a guilty look on his face as he watched Hinata Feng perform hemostasis techniques to save his teammates, his heart filled with self-blame and fear.

"Don't say that, we are from the same team," Captain Yoshiyasu Kobayashi patted him on the shoulder and comforted him.

"But I couldn't help at all, and I still needed Hinata Feng's protection," Tanakagawa was still very conflicted.

"Don't belittle yourself. After all, Hinata Feng is a genius from the famous Hyuga family. If he wasn't strong, he wouldn't have been assigned to the task force so early," Kobayashi Yoshiyasu continued to comfort him.

Hinata Feng finished the treatment, "I'm still far from being that strong, I'm not a genius. This time, the enemy underestimated me because of my young age. He was also focusing on your movements, distracting me, which allowed me to dodge behind him and complete the attack."

"Don't underestimate yourself, Feng, your strength has improved very quickly in the past few months. I and the two civilian ninjas really can't keep up with your speed of strength improvement." Kobayashi Yoshiyasu waved his hand to stop Hinata Feng from interrupting, and continued: "I have reported your achievements and strength progress. With this achievement and the accumulation of mission experience for a period of time, I believe you will be promoted soon."

Tanakagawa and Inoue Nobuyuki who had just woken up beside him showed expressions of admiration and envy. Hinata Feng was humble in words but calm in heart, thinking that he was just a more useful ox or horse.
