"Puff!"
Outside, one second later, Uchiha Sado trembled, his face turned pale and bloodless, his forehead sweating, and his body shaking like a sieve.
Everyone's attention was on him at this moment, and Uchiha Sado fell to his knees with a plop, beginning to retch with his hands on the ground. He felt so weak that he seemed close to death.
Swish!
The other two Uchiha did not hesitate at all and directly drew their kunai, subconsciously blocking in front of Uchiha Sado, with extremely vigilant expressions.
The three Hyūga retreated quickly, and their expressions were also vigilant.
Ishigami Hara looked normal and did not care about the actions of these people, but asked Uchiha Izuna in his mind: "How is my Tsukuyomi?"
Uchiha Izuna watched the whole process; of course, this was deliberately shown to him by Ishigami Hara, so his feelings were clearer than others.
At this moment, Uchiha Izuna was a little silent.
He knew that Ishigami Hara had amazing talent, but he didn't expect him to be this buggy.
That was Tsukuyomi, the ability of Mangekyō awakening. In the entire Uchiha history, there were only three or five clan members who had awakened this ability. It is precisely because of this that it further illustrates the power and rarity of this ability.
But with such an ability, the other party was able to learn it directly without external force, which was beyond normal comprehension.
Ishigami Hara didn't care about not getting a response from Uchiha Izuna. His eyes swept over the three Hyūga and then fixed on Uchiha Sado.
"Uchiha Sado, can you calm down now? Or do you need to experience it again?"
His voice was calm and indifferent, as if he was talking about something unrelated.
"Ah!!!"
Uchiha Sado quickly crawled back, using his hands and feet, very embarrassed, but dared not make a sound.
Nawaki saw this scene, his expression quite strange, and he couldn't help asking: "Hara, what did you do?"
"Nothing, just let that guy feel my illusion. Now it seems the effect is very good."
The other two Uchiha also changed their expressions when they heard this. Uchiha Sado was obviously shocked by the illusion, as if he had seen the most terrifying thing. Others don't know what this means, but how could the Uchiha not understand?
The two of them couldn't help but turn pale, and a sense of fear arose spontaneously.
There is only one possibility in the Uchiha clan that can easily make Three Tomoe Sharingan fall for it, with such serious consequences.
Inexplicably, the two of them thought of something, and after looking at each other, they subconsciously swallowed their saliva. They then quickly supported Uchiha Sado and, without leaving any words, retreated quickly.
At this time, the others present were even more puzzled, especially Nawaki, who was very curious.
"Hey, why did they run away?"
Nawaki wanted to chase after them and ask, but he held back. He knew he couldn't cause trouble at this time, so he just watched from the side.
The reaction of the three Uchiha gave Hyūga and his two companions a big shock. The Hyūga trio was in trouble.
As shinobi, and one of the eye-jutsu clans, if you ask which family in the entire shinobi world knows the Uchiha best, besides the Hyūga, there is probably no one else.
It is precisely because of this that the three Hyūga understood what Ishigamihara's achievement meant: absolute domination of ocular power.
In other words, it was not difficult to crush them with eye power that could overwhelm the Three Tomoe Sharingan.
At this time, Ishigami Hara's gaze fell on the three of them, and they immediately grew pale.
"What do you want to do?"
Like a reflex, the leading Hyūga spoke immediately.
Ishigami Hara said calmly: "Fighting with fellow villagers is an act of treason. Although you have the confidence to do so as a bloodline clan, I don't like this kind of behavior."
The faces of the three Hyūga darkened immediately after hearing this—their most dreaded outcome had arrived.
But Ishigami Hara continued: "The fault is yours. The Uchiha have already been punished. As for the three of you, I won't make things difficult. Go back and report that you were defeated by me."
As he spoke, Ishigami Hara took a step forward, and in the next moment, his figure suddenly disappeared.
"What?"
"Not good!"
"So fast!"
The three had different expressions, but their reactions were the same. They all assumed the Hyūga clan's Gentle Fist starting stance simultaneously, ready to face Ishigami Hara.
Ishigami Hara was deliberate in his actions. He didn't unleash his full power right away. Instead, he controlled the pace, allowing the three to display their skills.
In fact, he was simply curious about the effectiveness of the Hyūga clan's Gentle Fist technique.
Bang, bang, bang…
The field echoed with the muffled sounds of fists and feet. Ishigami Hara's figure flickered through the battlefield like a shadow. His strength was so overwhelming that the three Hyūga were struggling to catch their breath.
"Gentle Fist Art: Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms!"
"Two Palms!"
"Four Palms!"
"Eight Palms!"
"Sixteen Palms!"
"Thirty-Two Palms!"
"Sixty-Four Palms!"
The three worked in perfect unison, successfully executing the Gentle Fist Method: Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms together.
Each palm was infused with a special Chakra Nature Transformation. This transformation wasn't intense but gentle. Combined with the Gentle Fist technique, it easily penetrated the opponent's body.
By striking the enemy's chakra points, they could sever chakra pathways within the body, achieving the desired effect.
"I see."
Ishigami Hara responded with the Konoha Steel Fist Style, causing each of their palms to hit only air. As the three encircled him, he moved like a butterfly among flowers, always evading by mere millimeters.
At the same time, Ishigami Hara's eyes scanned their movements. He quickly grasped the essence of their techniques.
With his Byakugan, he could clearly see the chakra flow within their bodies.
Using his Sharingan's insight, he even detected the subtle Chakra Nature Transformation as they attacked.
Coupled with his level 4 learning ability, he instantly understood everything.
Shua!
Ishigami Hara twisted his body, dodging all attacks, and then assumed the Gentle Fist starting stance.
The sight shocked the three Hyūga.
"Could it be…"
The thought crossed all their minds at the same time, but before they could react, Ishigamihara made his move.
"Gentle Fist Art: Counter Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms!"
Having observed the Gentle Fist Method: Sixty-Four Trigrams Palms, Ishigami Hara adapted effortlessly, responding to their attacks with a variation of his own.
Thus, the Gentle Fist Method: Counter Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms was born.
The three Hyūga's faces twisted in disbelief. They wanted to react, but Ishigamihara didn't give them a chance.
"Four Palms!"
"Eight Palms!"
"Sixteen Palms!"
"Thirty-Two Palms!"
"Sixty-Four Palms!"
"One Hundred and Twenty-Eight Palms!"
The sounds of blows rang out continuously, and each time, one of the three would tremble in response.
Looking on, it seemed as if a ball of red light was rotating in the field, while the three were frozen in place, like statues, with only shock visible on their faces.
After a moment, Ishigamihara exited the circle and began walking toward the camp.
"Let's go, Nawaki, time to head back."
"Huh?"
Nawaki, confused, glanced at Ishigamihara, then at the three Hyūga, clearly conflicted.
"Will those three be alright?" Nawaki asked.
Ishigamihara didn't even turn his head. "They'll be fine. Let them calm down here."
In his mind, Uchiha Izuna finally gave his assessment.
"What a monster."
