Chapter 10: A Wind Style Genius
Looking at Hinata's appetite, Tenten and Naruto seemed to want to say something, but they were stopped by Bai Xuan.
After all, Hinata's personality is very timid, and she usually didn't dare to eat with an open stomach.
If her appetite was mentioned today, what if Hinata was embarrassed to eat her fill in the future?
Also, a girl's appetite doesn't seem to be an appropriate topic of discussion.
Additionally, Hinata's byakugan is very pure. Even Otsutsuki Toneri from the moon calls Hinata the Byakugan Princess.
If this world follows the original trajectory, Hinata would never have enough to eat throughout her childhood because she was too embarrassed.
Even the Hinata who grew up like this can be called the Byakugan Princess by Otsutsuki Toneri.
If Hinata is able to eat enough all throughout her childhood... maybe she could evolve Tenseigan without all of the detours of the original timeline.
As for the relationship between appetite and Tenseigan, Bai Xuan believes that if the appetite is large, and there is sufficient nutrition and energy, humans develop faster and more perfectly.
Physical development is essential, especially for Byakugan and Sharingan, the special Kekkei Genkai. This is shown through the bloodline diseases of Uchiha Itachi, Kimimaro, and Kurama Yakumo.
Itachi opened Mangekyo too early, and the strain of the eyes, even ignoring the blindness caused from overuse, led Itachi to an early grave even without the final battle with Sasuke.
Kimimaro's body was overexerted by his own Kekkei Genkai, and he even died on his own during his battle with Gaara and Rock Lee.
Kurama Yakumo's body was so weak that even with an incredible illusion ability she was unable to become a ninja, driving her into despair and awakening her Id personality.
From these examples, it is clear to Bai Xuan: Proper nutrition is essential for the strength and perfection of these Kekkei Genkai. {T/N: Ok, before y'all say anything, I know that Tenseigan requires Otsutsuki and Hyuga chakra to mix. I promise that I will not give her the Tenseigan through some nonsense like proper nutrition. If all that was needed for something to evolve was a lot of food, the Akimichi clan would rule the world.}
Bai Xuan thought of these things casually while feeding Hayate.
As time passed, the four people and the dog finally had enough to eat and drink, so Bai Xuan began packing up the barbeque grill.
After putting those things away, Bai Xuan said to Tenten, Naruto and Hinata, "Since we have eaten and drank enough, let's head back. Next time we have a chance, we will picnic again. For now, I will take you all home.
Listening to Bai Xuan, the other three all seemed to be somewhat reluctant. They didn't expect that the outing would end so quickly.
Sure enough, the good times don't last.
But as if he were oblivious to their reluctance, Bai Xuan honestly brought each of them home. Tenten's house was the closest, followed by Naruto's, and Hinata's clan compound was the farthest.
After all, the Hyuga clan has its own clan land, and the Hyuga clan is a large clan, so the clan land is also quite large, and maybe it is because of this, or maybe because of sneaky snakes hiding under the tree, the Hyuga clan cannot be too close to the center of Konoha.
Because of this, Bai Xuan sent Tenten and Naruto home, leaving Hinata and himself alone.
In order to save time, Bai Xuan and Hinata sat on the back of Hayate and Bai Xuan made Hayate gallop towards the Hyuga compound.
After a while of speeding, Bai Xuan and Hinata arrived at the door of the Hyuga clan.
"We are here." Bai Xuan smiled at Hinata.
"Yeah." Hinata gave a small nod and a cute smile in response.
When Bai Xuan waved goodbye and rode off on Hayate, Hinata couldn't help but stare at his back for a long time.
When Bai Xuan completely disappeared from her sight, Hinata strode through the clan gate and returned to her room.
After she returned, Hyuga Hiashi, who was not far away, looked at Hinata and sighed.
"I don't know if what happened today is a good thing or a bad thing for Hinata.
After all, she is too soft and timid. Her personality is really not suitable for the head of the family.
So... do I need to have another child?" {T/N: ...Praying for you, soldier.}
With some hesitation, Hyuga Hiashi decided to think about it.
After all, this matter is not a trivial concern, it concerns the entire Hyuga family.

At Bai Xuan's Residence
After returning home, Bai Xuan grabbed a group of scrolls from his desk.
He opened the first scroll, which recorded the Shadow Clone jutsu, one of the techniques his father left for him.
"The ninjutsu of this world is really quite magical.
Shadow Clone not only has the ability to think independently, but it can also fight, study, work, and practice on behalf of the caster.
As long as the caster can withstand the memory load, fatigue, chakra consumption, etc. brought by the Shadow Clone's efforts, it's basically a universal plug-in cheat."
Bai Xuan couldn't help but whistle at the marvels of this technique, both from reading the scroll and seeing the technique in action in his past life.
"Even more fantastic is the Multiple Shadow Clone jutsu, which increased even Naruto's learning and practice speed by many times.
Although currently, my physique is not as good as Naruto's Sage Body, as long as I sign contracts with a few more summoning beasts or my summoning beasts evolve a few more times in succession, my physique will naturally be able to surpass the Sage Body.
Then, I will be able to use the Multiple Shadow Clone jutsu to cheat as well."
Thinking this way, Bai Xuan began to learn and practice the technique.
It's important to note, Bai Xuan's learning talent is really above average.
He only spent half an hour to learn the Shadow Clone Technique.
Then, Bai Xuan began to practice the technique.
After all, learning is learning, but to use the technique flexibly in situations like battle, practice is definitely necessary.
While practicing, Bai Xuan also began to daydream.
One day, when he has evolved all of his summoning beasts, and challenges opponents like Uzumaki Nagato, Uchiha Madara, Otsutsuki Kaguya, or the creepy lurker, Sage of Six Paths, when they finally defeated one of his summoning beasts with great difficulty and were finally able to fight against him, he would simply kill or defeat them in an instant.
If they were able to survive, imagining their faces filled with horror brought a smirk to Bai Xuan's lips.
Of course, the scenario Bai Xuan hopes for is that no one in this world will be able to defeat his summoning beasts.
After familiarizing himself with the Shadow Clone jutsu, Bai Xuan took out the second scroll, which recorded Wind Style: Breakthrough.
It is a very basic Wind Style ninjutsu, which allows the caster to blow a guys of wind from their mouth.
It's not very powerful, but it can be used to interfere with the enemy's movements or it can blow away some kunai and shuriken.
In just three minutes, Bai Xuan memorized the order of the seals and the key to casting Wind Style: Breakthrough.
In order to practice, Bai Xuan came to the courtyard.
"Shadow Clone jutsu!"
With a puff of smoke, three shadow clones condensed and appeared beside Bai Xuan.
"Begin practicing the Wind Style: Breakthrough ninjutsu."
After giving the order, Bai Xuan and the three shadow clones went to an empty spot and began their practice.
Hand seal, open your mouth, blow the wind, repeat.
"Hu~~"
Between breaths, the gust of wind blew towards the edge of the yard, and in its path, dust and smoke rose, obscuring vision.
Looking at the clearly visible gust of wind, Bai Xuan couldn't help but feel some satisfaction.
"Sure enough, with Hayate's shared talent, Wind Style Affinity, the wind style ninjutsu got a significant boost in power.
The basic Breakthrough technique actually displayed the power of Wind Style: Great Breakthrough."
Bai Xuan nodded to himself.
"And I am just beginning this technique, I am not proficient yet.
The talent of Wind Style Affinity is really powerful.
I am looking forward to Hayate's second evolution.
The increase in strength, the upgraded talents, and also the awakening of new talents... very exciting."
After sighing, Bai Xuan began to practice diligently.
End of Chapter
.............
Yo, so this chapter, while complete, had a couple of holes in it, especially around the whole Tenseigan thing, and no extra explanation was given.
I patched it a bit, and added the explanation regarding Itachi, Kimimaro, and Kurama Yakumo.
Please note that these are AU explanations, as Itachi Uchiha's sickness was never clearly explained, nor did we ever understand Kimimaro's.
But to complement the original author's writing, I added a bit of substance to their nutrition and energy argument for Kekkei Genkais.
Please let me know your thoughts. Thanks for reading!
