67 BSNW CH 063 Rivals of the Future (1/2)
In a Forest that barely allowed a few rays of light to seep through its gaps, a cacophony of weapons clashing and shouting of people echoed. The intensity of the fight even scared away all the normal residents of the forests, as if warning them against the walking calamities that were roaming in the forests.
Klingg … Kabaang … fttinng… Baddoommmm … Crassshhh..
Among these clashes, suddenly a person was thrown out like a bag of trash . He went crashing into the forest trees, breaking through quite a few branches before he fell down to the ground.
”Ah .. hell-- (pui . pui .. puuagh). I almost puked out my guts… That kid never kids around or holds back his punches does he..” A man with a wide variety of scars on his face rose up.
As that man went back to the clearing in the forest where the fighting was taking place, he was greeted with a sight of various thug like men sprawled around on the clearing , all with varying states of injuries and unconsciousness.
”Oi Oi Oi… who would believe it has only been a few months since this guy joined our gang and he has already surpassed everyone? … Ok … You win.. What do you want?”
The man turned towards the perpetrator of all this violence , a young kid looking around 6-7 years of age, and asked.
”Nothing . I just want to leave the gang and roam the world!” Came the answer from the mouth of the black haired blue eyed boy with face that could be called the brand ambassador of impassivity.
”Ok fine. But please just heal these guys up, for good old times sake ? You are the best among us in healing arts right?”
”I don't know which good times you are talking about since all we are is a bunch of thugs that rob… But it is fine … you guys were decent sparring partners to get my bearing in this new world so I guess I will oblige.. 'Mass-Heal !!' ”
With a single gesture and a hand-seal, a fog of chakra descended upon the injured people and they started recovering at a fast pace.
The man who had requested this , bowed down to the boy who was departing and said with a voice filled with respect, ”Thank you for this favor, and I hope you have a wonderful life ahead.. Ikari Jihino!”
The boy merely nodded before disappearing into the forest.

In the Hidden Leaf, Hyuga Compound
Hinata's mother was in labour with Hinata's younger sibling and there were many close friends of Hinata and Hiashi and Hizashi Hyuga present in the Hyuga compound. Mostly it was Hinata's close friends Naruto , Ino , Sakura , Choji , Shikamaru who were there to support her.
Jun was there with his newly adopted sister Chino. He had Finally started his own Kigen Clan, despite many protests from Yoshino and Shikaku. Yoshino and Shikaku finally had to give in when he said that it was not because he didn't consider them as his parents , but because he had to provide a good environment for his new sister. Chino had a slight trauma because of what she had undergone with her clan , Therefore instead of her becoming head of her own Chinoike clan Jun persuaded her to join the village as a member of his clan.
His Kigen clan didn't have a set basis for Bloodline inheritance , so he and the Hokage decided to classify Chino's bloodline as a variant type like Jun's own. For the past two weeks Jun had been taking care of Chino and because of his mature disposition he had become somewhat of her guardian. Despite physically being of the same age, Chino regarded him like the elder brother she never had and had placed him as the only close confidant in her closed off world , Just them both against the world.
Back in Hyuga Mansion, Cries of a woman in distress was echoing softly , getting weaker by the minute. At that moment , a maid ran out of the room and said something to Hiashi. Seeing his face get paler by the moment, Jun decided to intervene.
