December 21, Konoha 54.
Before they knew it, the second semester had come to an end.
This semester, the first-year students had undergone very obvious transformations.
In the first semester, they only had cultural classes and physical education class, and without any practical experience, they were no different from those who hadn't entered the school yet.
The Taijutsu Sparring added in the second semester allowed them to grow through pain, shedding some of their childishness.
However, there was also a side effect, which was that it taught some students to solve problems with violence.
Fights or brawls at the slightest disagreement, or incidents of bullying classmates, occurred frequently.
More importantly, the teachers and the school did not stop these.
Obviously, in their eyes, cowardly guys were not worthy of becoming ninjas.
Rather than being killed while doing missions after graduation, it was better to be bullied by their own people and choose to drop out and become an ordinary person.
Therefore, in various grades and classes, there had been incidents of poor students trying to bully top students.
Like Itachi Uchiha back then, like Neji Hyuga, like Sasuke Uchiha...
They all had one thing in common, that was that they were handsome, geniuses, had a cold personality, and were very popular with girls.
However, these popular guys didn't like to join or form small groups, and seemed indifferent to both boys and girls.
This lone wolf appearance made many boys uncomfortable, wanting to teach them a lesson.
Unfortunately, these bullying attempts were all resolved without exception, and they were even beaten up.
Being beaten up didn't matter, but it was embarrassing that so many people couldn't beat them.
Afterwards, they would be bullied by the other party's Support Group, and be ostracized by the girls in the class and grade, and even be counter-bullied by the upper grades.
As a result, they hated these popular figures even more, and even hated the people of their clans.
For example, on this day, it was snowing heavily.
Finally, after the snow stopped, Hinata, who no longer needed Izayoi to transform into Ino Yamanaka to invite her and already had the privilege to go out freely, immediately trotted out of the clan grounds, ready to wait for Izayoi at the old place.
Hinata was wearing a white Snowman Suit, with a red scarf around her neck, looking chubby and very cute.
In the past half year, Hinata's hair had been deliberately grown longer at Izayoi's suggestion, and now it reached her shoulders.
She tied it into pigtails with hair ties, planning to change her hairstyle after it reached her waist.
Her cute little face was full of baby fat, slightly flushed in the snowy weather, making people want to pinch it.
To avoid being discovered, Hinata did not knock on Izayoi's door, but came to the open space outside the Ninja Academy, waiting for Izayoi's arrival, which had become their tacit understanding.
"Is that guy a member of Neji's clan?"
"White eyes, there's definitely no mistake."
"Let's go, let's teach her a lesson!"
Just as Hinata was waiting for Izayoi, she suddenly heard the voices of several boys in her ears.
When she turned her head to look, three boys who looked a year or two older than her had jogged over and surrounded her.
All of them wore malicious smiles on their faces.
"Um... is there something you need?"
Hinata asked.
Her voice was very gentle, but if you looked closely, you would notice that she didn't lower her head, but just looked at the three boys with a puzzled expression.
"Those are really annoying eyes, just like that Neji guy!"
Looking at Hinata's eyes, one of the boys seemed to recall some bad memories and shouted loudly, "What are you looking at, you Byakugan freak? Do you know you've offended me? Kneel down and apologize to me!"
Hinata tilted her head, somewhat uncomprehendingly.
However, upon hearing her cousin's name, she still asked in confusion, "Are you Neji-niisan's friends?"
"Who's friends with that Neji guy?"
Another boy immediately retorted loudly, "We're his enemies."
"Kneel down quickly, shout 'I'm sorry' loudly, and apologize to us on behalf of that Neji guy, or we'll beat you up!"
The last boy reached out his hand, wanting to hold Hinata's shoulder, force the member of Neji Hyuga's clan to kneel down, and then humiliate her severely.
Looking at the boy's outstretched hand, Hinata's eyes suddenly changed, and then her small hand wearing a white glove extended her index and middle fingers, stabbing at the boy's chest at an even faster speed.
"Ah..."
Even through the glove, Hinata's fingers were like silver needles, penetrating the thick winter clothes, causing the boy to let out a scream and fall to the ground.
Hinata then struck the other two boys in quick succession.
They also let out screams and sat on the ground.
"It hurts, it hurts, waah..."
They kept rubbing their chests, but the pain from the inside out didn't alleviate in the slightest.
Looking at Hinata in front of them, they seemed to see the reflection of Neji Hyuga, just as strong, just as condescending.
The newest novels are first released at Dingdian Novels!
Immediately, they were so frightened that they cried on the spot and ran away, scrambling on their hands and knees.
Hinata, who had instinctively counterattacked, tilted her head again.
She hadn't even channeled Chakra into her body, so why were they crying?
With such strength, were they really Neji-niisan's enemies?
Clap clap clap...
Just then, the sound of applause entered her ears.
Looking in the direction the sound came from, Hinata's face immediately revealed a happy expression.
"Izayoi-kun, you're here."
"Hinata, you looked really cool just now."
Izayoi, also wearing a white Snowman Suit, walked over and gave Hinata a thumbs up, saying, "When dealing with people with ill intentions, you should take decisive action, otherwise they will only become more and more aggressive, and even develop the bad habit of bullying others."
"Yes, yes..."
Hinata nodded repeatedly, very obedient.
Looking at her like this, Izayoi's heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment.
In the original story, Hinata was bullied by her peers more than once.
The dignified young lady of a wealthy family was bullied by a few commoner boys, which was a very outrageous thing.
What's even more outrageous is that Hinata had already started learning Gentle Fist at that time.
To be bullied to the point of crying even with that, it was undoubtedly a personality problem.
But now, Hinata has turned around and beat the bullies to tears, which shows that Izayoi's transformation has been very successful.
In the constant beatings, her personality is no longer introverted and weak, but has become firm and unyielding, and she will not give up easily.
Kindness is still there, but she will not sacrifice herself to take care of others. Her actions are not only decisive, but counterattack has become an instinct.
Unlike the delinquent girl in Infinite Tsukuyomi, the current Hinata is gentle on the outside but firm on the inside.
In just half a year, Hinata has been transformed into this way, and Izayoi is of course full of a sense of accomplishment.
But fortunately, the transformation was carried out so early. If Hiashi Hyuga and Neji Hyuga were to break up Hinata's spirit, it would not be an easy task to change this girl.
Hiashi Hyuga must be very grateful to Izayoi.
Hinata's privilege of going out freely is the best reward.
"Let's go, let's go to practice."
"Okay!"
Two children wearing Snowman Suits headed to the abandoned training ground.
