Satoru Hyūga glanced at Obito who looked completely disheartened, and murmured silently in his heart, Obito, you can't blame me.

Anything stupid you do won't surprise anyone. You're the perfect test subject. Besides, I'm stimulating your learning motivation and preventing you from indulging in puppy love. It's for your own good.

Through the experiment of interfering with Obito's Shuriken, he found that he had a certain ability to control even high-speed flying Shurikens. In the future, ninja tools like this would basically pose no threat to him.

Looking at Obito who was dancing and gesturing wildly, Fujino Daikichi sighed and scratched his Mediterranean hairstyle (Mediterranean hairstyle refers to a hairstyle where there is hair only on the sides and back of the head, and the top is bald, resembling the shape of the Mediterranean Sea), suddenly feeling a headache.

"How did the Uchiha produce such a weirdo?"

"Next, Iroha Hyūga."

A boy with a bandage around his forehead and pure white eyes walked out from the crowd and threw Shurikens using both hands.

"10 points, 9 points, 10 points..."

"He's really good. Only a little inferior to Kakashi and the others."

"After all, he's from the Hyūga clan."

"Why does he have a bandage on his forehead?" someone whispered.

"Shh! Don't you know? That's a secret of the Hyūga clan..."

Iroha Hyūga's expression turned cold, and he clenched his fists subconsciously as he walked back to his position.

Fujino Daikichi nodded in satisfaction. Through these few days of observation, he found that although Iroha Hyūga wasn't the most talented, he must be the most diligent one. For the branch family of the Hyūga clan, hard work was their only way out.

"Next, Satoru Hyūga."

Satoru Hyūga stepped forward and picked up several Shurikens.

"7 points, 7 points, 7 points... 10 points."

After several consecutive 7 points, the last one barely hit the 10-point mark.

The crowd started whispering.

"Although they're both from the Hyūga family, he seems much worse than Iroha Hyūga! The gap with Kakashi and the others is even bigger."

"Yeah, after all, not everyone is a genius."

Satoru Hyūga's expression remained calm. He didn't want to expose his Electromagnetic Force ability so quickly. This level was more in line with his obscure persona in the Hyūga family.

Iroha Hyūga glanced at Satoru Hyūga and then retracted his gaze. Although they were both from the Hyūga family, they didn't have much contact usually. This level wasn't worth his attention.

However, Uchiha Rin looked at the target where Satoru Hyūga threw the Shurikens, and a sudden glint sparkled in her eyes. She noticed that the positions of the Shurikens on the target happened to form a hexagram together with the one in the middle.

A coincidence?

Interesting.

Not long after Satoru Hyūga returned home, someone knocked on the door. When he opened the door, it was a branch family guard.

The other person wore a Forehead Protector and handed him a slightly bulging envelope.

"Satoru Hyūga, this is the living expenses from the family for this month."

Satoru Hyūga took the envelope on which his name and the amount were written.

"Okay, thank you."

The guard nodded and disappeared on the spot.

This branch family guard was specifically here to deliver the living expenses. Satoru Hyūga would only see him once a month, and there was rarely any extra communication when they met.

Satoru Hyūga opened the envelope. Inside were 1,500 ryo in 15 thin banknotes. He felt a bit of a headache. In a world where a bowl of ramen cost 60 ryo, it was indeed a bit tight to make 1,500 ryo last for a month.

As one of the most famous clans in Konoha, compared with the Uchiha clan, the Hyūga clan's admiration for the clan and its system had reached an extreme. It was law - abiding yet suffocating.

Here, Satoru Hyūga truly felt the fickleness of human relationships. As an orphan, he lived alone in a corner of the Hyūga clan's territory. The clan barely paid any attention to him. This 1,500 ryo of living expenses was only given out of consideration for the fact that his father had died for the main family.

The Hyūga clan never supported idlers.

But it was also good this way. If he were from another branch family, his actions would basically be controlled by the main family. Now, he managed to gain a little freedom.

Regarding the caged bird, Satoru Hyūga wasn't particularly afraid. When the Electromagnetic Force grew to a sufficient state, it was almost omnipotent. Solving a Cursed Seal would be a piece of cake.
