Chapter 105.3 : Hinata Dies!

[Deva Path Pain doesn't care; he just wanted to discuss it, regardless of Naruto's thoughts.]

[The other party can't see the future anyway.]

[Deva Path continues creating black sticks, then inserts them one by one into Naruto's joints, completely locking the opponent's Chakra and mobility!]

[Now, the overall situation has been decided!]

[He foresees the future, and it will soon come to fruition!]

["Then it's time to take you away."]

Deva Path opened his palm, but retracted it in the next second, jumping back.

[Boom!]

The paint on the ground cracked with spider web patterns, revealing a girl with white eyes and long hair standing in the spot just now.

Hinata stood in front of Naruto without hesitation, her eyes filled with determination.

"I won't let you harm Naruto-kun again!"

Kushina looked surprised off-screen. She hadn't expected a girl to step forward in this situation.

"Who is this girl?"

Naruto scratched his head, unable to figure it out. "She's called Hyūga Hinata, and she's my classmate."

Kushina nodded, not continuing to speak, sensing an unusual determination in the girl's eyes.

Meanwhile, everyone who knew Hinata was shocked!

Is this the introverted Hinata?!

Hinata, clasping her hands on her chest, watched the screen anxiously. But her worry was not for herself, but for Naruto.

[Naruto gets excited:]

[Run away, Hinata, you can't beat that guy at all, go away!]

["How could you come to such a dangerous place?]

[However, Hinata stood firmly in place, unmoved!]

[This is also the first time she has rejected Naruto!]

["I am standing here of my own will; this time, I am going to help Naruto-kun."]

["I gave up from the beginning; I just knew how to cry. I almost went astray several times. It was Naruto-kun who brought me back to the right path!"]

["It was Naruto-kun's smile that saved me, so I won't be afraid to die in order to protect Naruto-kun!"]

Naruto was left in awe.

At that moment, Hinata smiled, reflecting on the happiest memory of her life.

Without hesitation or shyness, she declared firmly, "Because I like Naruto the most!"

Off-screen, Naruto's eyes widened, his heart racing. In such a dire situation, her words carried a powerful impact.

Even Kushina was taken aback!

She couldn't help but feel that the girl standing fearlessly before Naruto, facing death, surpassed the previous Sakura, who only knew how to call out. It wasn't a slight against Sakura; it was just that Hinata's courage deeply moved her.

In Konoha, Hiashi Hyuga was astonished, then smiled.

He realized that his daughter, Hinata, had finally grown up, showing no trace of cowardice or fear. As for Hinata's feelings for Naruto, he was now completely supportive.

Inside the room, Hinata blushed, steam practically rising from her, nearly fainting from embarrassment.

Shikamaru and the others were equally shocked. They never expected such strength from the seemingly weak Hinata.

Hinata's face displayed unwavering determination, and the next moment, she opened her eyes.

Taking a step towards the heavens, she turned and struck Naruto's body with a palm, attempting to disrupt the black rod embedded in him.

Her goal was clear: to give Naruto a chance at freedom.

But the next moment, the air quivered, and Shinra Tensei, a force even Naruto couldn't resist, sent Hinata flying.

Undeterred, Hinata stood up, wiping blood from the corners of her mouth, and rushed at Naruto again.

However, the unseen repulsive force struck her once more, causing blood to flow from Hinata's hair this time.

Undaunted, she stopped wiping, concentrating chakra in her fists, forming a lion's head.

Launching into another attack, she persisted relentlessly.

In Naruto's widened pupils, Hinata soared into the sky, then fell to the ground, severely injured.

This blow was much more potent. Despite her injuries, she got up, staggering towards Naruto.

After a few steps, she couldn't go on and collapsed to the ground.

Off-screen, tears welled up in Naruto's eyes.

"Don't move, Hinata, you'll die," he pleaded.

Kushina, understanding Hinata's feelings as a woman, shared her distress.

Hinata couldn't stand anymore, crawling slowly towards Naruto, with one thought in mind: to pull out the black rod and save him.

Pain watched coldly as Hinata approached, holding the black rod in Naruto's hand.

"I don't understand. You know it's death, why come here, why fight?" Pain questioned.

Slowly raising her head, she looked into Naruto's eyes, a smile on her bloody face.

"Because. Doing what you say and moving forward bravely, this is my ninja way!" she declared.

Naruto's pupils trembled, recognizing these words as the ninja way he once spoke of. Hinata had somehow remembered and embraced it as her own.

"It's pointless," declared Pain, raising his hand to end it all.

In the next moment, Hinata was thrown into the sky and impaled by a black rod.

"You can also experience it. My parents were killed by Konoha's ninjas before my eyes," Pain said indifferently.

"It is precisely because of love that sacrifice is derived, hatred is derived, and pain is known," he continued.

However, Naruto, with eyes devoid of emotion, could only see blood flowing from Hinata's unmoving form.

The blood spread, vivid red in his colorless eyes.

Gradually, red overtook his entire eye, and then, in an instant, Naruto disappeared.

A scarlet monster emerged.

On it, ominous black and red chakra released a terrifying aura, piercing the sky like a sharp sword!
