Setting aside how Sasuke went home to contemplate his new power, Naruto, who had literally forced Sasuke's eyes open, teleported to the rooftop after school at five the next day to wait.
Two minutes later, little loli Hinata and little cool guy Sasuke appeared one after the other.
"Let's go," Naruto created a shadow clone. Opening a portal, the clone grabbed Sasuke's arm, while Naruto personally took Hinata's small hand. The little loli, blushing, was led away by Naruto.
"Is this how Naruto-kun used to disappear?" Hinata asked. She had only watched before and didn't expect to actually go through the portal with Naruto today; she was very happy.
"Yeah, it's pretty interesting, right?" The feeling of teleporting was still quite fun.
"Mm-hmm."
The three arrived at a clearing. Naruto explained, "Today's main goal is to distinguish the difference between these types of grilled meat."
Naruto took out a table, removed the tablecloth, and threw the table away. Couldn't help it, the dwarf's table was too low; only a certain general could use it. (Hey, General, listen to me... Boom)
He took out two identical pieces of grilled meat again, placed them down, and continued explaining, "And this requires both of your eyes."
Naruto rattled off more explanations, and in the end, both indicated they understood.
The three began their plan. Naruto's idea was to fight first until they got hungry, then eat. While eating, they would observe carefully and then distinguish the grilled meat.
Naruto created a shadow clone and said to Hinata, "Hinata-chan, hit it however you like, don't worry, it's just a clone."
"Hey, hey, hey, original body, aren't you going too far?"
Hinata found it difficult to attack Naruto himself, but she could let loose more against the clone. If the clone was destroyed, he could just make another one.
Inside the small grove, four figures faced each other in pairs.
"Byakugan!" The veins around Hinata's eyes bulged, looking quite ferocious.
"Sharingan!" Sasuke's eyes turned scarlet, tomoe appearing.
Don't even mention Naruto's frustration. Can't you guys activate your cheats without shouting it out?
"Kurama!" Naruto called out to the Nine-Tails in his spiritual world.
"Hmm?" The Nine-Tails, currently eating grilled meat, fried eggs, grilled fish, drinking cola, and hard liquor, glanced at him doubtfully.
Naruto looked at the fat fox, sighed, and said, "Nothing, just calling out."
The Nine-Tails ignored him and continued eating. Cola mixed with hard liquor; his body felt tingly and warm, a particularly special feeling.
The cheat wasn't helpful; he had to rely on himself.
The original body and the clone systematically dealt with the attacks of the other two.
Twenty minutes later...
Naruto had black lines all over his head. You two collapsed already? I haven't even used much strength.
Sharingan and Byakugan consume a lot of chakra. The fact that they could fight for twenty minutes was purely due to willpower.
Couldn't be helped. Naruto summoned water and washed the dust off his hands and arms.
He first walked over to Hinata's side. The little loli's sweat soaked her clothes and hair. She was already showing promise, much better than Sakura-bro.
He placed his left ring finger on Hinata's lips. The little loli's lips were soft, her face red. So cute.
"Take a bite," Naruto explained again.
Watching the little loli's cute expression as she bit his finger, Naruto felt the plan was a great success. The left ring finger is for wearing a wedding ring. When Hinata puts a ring on it for him in the future, will it feel very sweet? Ehehe...
Hinata finished replenishing her mana. It was Sasuke's turn. Naruto stretched out his arm and said, "Same spot as yesterday. Bite wrong and I'll beat you."
The difference in treatment showcased Naruto's clueless straight-guy aura.
The two rested for a while, relieving their fatigue.
Seventeen or eighteen minutes later...
Naruto replenished their mana again.
"Sasuke, speed is good, but endurance is more important," Naruto said with disappointment, like hating iron for not becoming steel. No wonder you only had a daughter later.
Sasuke didn't know what was wrong with him, going further and further down the path of speed. And the Sharingan was special; the later Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, plus the Lightning Release Armor, made his speed even faster than Sage Mode Naruto's. And Naruto could compete with the Raikage in speed!
The two lying there were completely bewildered, not understanding his meaning.
After relieving their fatigue, the three prepared to eat. Having fought after school without eating, they were all quite hungry. Besides, the body absorbs nutrients better after exertion.
The two ate the grilled meat with their bloodline abilities activated, observing while they ate.
Sasuke ate 11 pieces, Naruto 17, and Hinata... ate 32 pieces...
After the two were full, they watched Hinata eat alone, dumbfounded.
After finishing eating, Hinata's face was so red steam seemed to be coming off it...
"It's okay, I can afford to feed you," Naruto quickly came to Hinata's rescue. He kept the fox spirit well-fed, how could he not feed his own wife?
It would have been better if he hadn't said anything. After he spoke, Hinata's face turned even redder, almost seeming like it would drip blood... So embarrassing, eating so much...
Naruto didn't care how much Hinata ate. Eating more meant supplementing more. Sakura-bro definitely had a small appetite, and Veneto, being a ship girl, didn't eat. This all made perfect sense.
After a while, Hinata finally calmed down. Naruto kept stealing glances; the little loli's red face was very cute. He couldn't look directly because it would make her blush even more.
Naruto took out 80 pieces of grilled meat and gave them to the other two to distinguish.
"Naruto-kun, am I very useless?" the little loli said, aggrieved. Naruto-kun had asked her for help this one time, and she actually couldn't help...
Maybe the Byakugan naturally wasn't suited for this kind of thing, or maybe Hinata hadn't fully developed it. Anyway, she just couldn't see the difference.
"How could that be? Hinata will become very, very strong in the future. I believe in you," Naruto comforted her.
You couldn't compare Hinata to himself and Sasuke, two cheaters. One activated cheats more fiercely than the other, and they didn't even get banned. The GM, old man Sage of Six Paths, even personally delivered the cheats. There was no comparison.
At worst, he could steal Toneri Ōtsutsuki's Tenseigan later and activate a cheat for her himself.
The little loli decided to go back and redouble her efforts. First, she set a small goal: beat Hanabi until she called her "Big Sis."
The cheater ranked second on the leaderboard discovered the difference. The single tomoe couldn't see it, but the double tomoe could.
Sasuke distinguished, Naruto recorded, and Naruto categorized by number.
One: 11, Two: 9, Three: 10, Four: 8, Five: 14, Six: 7, Seven: 8, Eight: 13.
Four and Six corresponded to the red and black dragon meat. Naruto sighed; he really was an unlucky chieftain.
Putting the paper down, the two glanced at it and then looked away. Anyway, it wasn't very useful.
Next was assembly line work: Naruto's clone summoned grilled meat, Sasuke stared with one eye to check, and Naruto took out storage scrolls to seal them.
"Why does Naruto-kun seal them up?" Little Hinata asked curiously.
"Because, after we graduate, we'll become ninjas. It's said that some missions take a very long time," Naruto explained.
"If Sasuke and I are separated then, there'd be no way to distinguish them. So I'm storing them now. Later, even if we're separated for a while, we can take them out to eat."
Naruto couldn't very well say that later Sasuke would defect from the village, he'd go traveling, and everyone would go their separate ways. Seal more now, so later, when the three of them had bigger appetites, it could last for a while.
The two seemed thoughtful...
After being busy for half the day, the time was approaching six-thirty. Hinata needed to go home, or she'd get scolded if she was any later.
Opening a portal, he sent the loli to her back door. He had sent her here before; full of memories.
"Hinata-chan, remember to bring two storage scrolls tomorrow." Naruto really had no money to buy more; if he bought more, he'd have to borrow money.
"Well then, goodbye," Naruto said after giving the instruction, waving goodbye.
"Goodbye, Naruto-kun."
Turning, he returned to the small grove where only Sasuke remained.
As for how the Hyuga clan saw it?
They'd see it with the Byakugan, duh.
After getting married, I fucking suffered the judging eyes of my family, and had to suffer the judging eyes of my wife's family too. Did I complain?
Because of what? Just because there's a fox spirit in my belly?
Then Sasuke, why are your eyes red [with envy]?

"Where are you going next?" Naruto asked.
"Right here," Sasuke said. He wanted to see why Naruto was so much stronger than him at the same age.
He could tell from the surroundings that this was Naruto's training spot.
"Okay, then call me when you want to leave, I'll send you back," Naruto said. Ignoring Sasuke, he started dragging trees.
Sasuke watched and decided he couldn't do that. He went to the front of the tree Naruto used for training and started hammering it.
Sasuke actually wanted to train with Naruto yesterday. A teammate who let you train without worrying about chakra consumption, without fear of injury, and even provided food – you couldn't find another one like that in all of Konoha.
Yes, Sasuke thought Naruto was a power bank, the kind with tens of thousands of mAh.
