The Little Sister System.
As the name suggests, as long as the host interacts with a younger sister whether through conversation or physical closeness rewards can be earned.
Neji froze for a moment, then broke into a wide grin.
Now this made sense.
Since he had transmigrated into this world, how could he not be equipped with a system?
Everyone knows: a transmigrator without a cheat is like a soldier going to war without a weapon. Completely useless.
Just then, that cold, mechanical voice echoed in his mind once again.
"Host has hugged Hyuga Hinata. Reward granted: Byakugan (100% Purity)."
What?! A 100% pure Byakugan?
Neji was stunned. It might not seem like a game-changing reward at first glance, but he knew better. This was one of the core conditions required to awaken the Tenseigan.
The Tenseigan-an ultimate ocular jutsu that can only be awakened by combining the chakra of the Otsutsuki clan with the pure Byakugan of the Hyuga. It holds the power to destroy and create worlds.
It is the final evolutionary form of the Byakugan, equivalent in status to the Rinnegan passed down by the Sage of Six Paths. Both possess extraordinary abilities.
If the Rinnegan is the final form of the Uchiha's Sharingan, then the Tenseigan is the pinnacle of the Hyuga's Byakugan.
But awakening the Tenseigan is no easy feat.
The Byakugan part was now solved. The harder requirement was the chakra of the Otsutsuki clan.
In other words, the bloodline of the Otsutsuki.
The Hyuga may be descended from the Otsutsuki, but after generations of dilution, their bloodline was now incredibly faint.
You need both elements. If either is missing, then even someone like Toneri Otsutsuki wouldn't have needed to come and seize the Byakugan for himself.
Neji sighed at the thought.
Still, if he could somehow gather those two components early on and unlock the Tenseigan, he could pretty much do whatever he wanted in this world.
"Forget it. Better to be realistic. No use daydreaming."
He shelved those thoughts for now. Hinata was still unconscious, so this was the perfect chance to test the power of the purified Byakugan.
"Byakugan!"
Neji's eyes snapped open, the veins around his temples bulging as chakra surged.
Under the influence of the Byakugan, everything within a 200-meter radius became crystal clear. Even the subtlest of movements could be detected with pinpoint accuracy.
"Incredible. The vision is sharper, the precision far greater!"
In the original story, Neji could only see within about 50 meters at best.
"And even more amazing…"
Neji smirked. "The infamous blind spot directly behind the first thoracic vertebra it's gone."
This Byakugan is terrifying!
"Unnnh…"
Just then, Hinata stirred and slowly regained consciousness.
"You're awake," Neji said, deactivating the Byakugan, his voice calm and expressionless.
Still, the excitement behind his tone was barely hidden.
Hearing his voice, Hinata immediately recalled the awkward scene from earlier. Her doll-like porcelain face flushed pink, steam practically rising from her head.
"E-Ennn…"
So adorable.
Neji looked at the small figure before him and couldn't help but admire her.
In the original timeline, Neji was such a blockhead. Didn't he understand the concept of "a nearby spring quenches the thirst"?
Well… perhaps he really didn't.
Thankfully, he was here now. He would take good care of Hinata. As for Naruto…
He could go live his life chasing Sasuke for all Neji cared.
"N-Neji… big brother… I'm heading back…" Hinata murmured shyly.
With that, she covered her face and dashed away.
Neji watched her flee in embarrassment and couldn't help but chuckle.
This girl really gets flustered too easily.
"System, how exactly were you activated?" he asked, puzzled.
"The activation condition was: physical or emotional intimacy with a female character."
"Oh, I see." Neji nodded. "So what functions do you have?"
"This system is named the Little Sister System. As long as the host engages with a female especially younger sisters rewards will be granted."
"Rewards are not limited to this world and may include non-living items or other entities."
"However, most rewards will relate directly to the female character involved in the interaction."
"The system also comes with a storage space. The host may store any non-living item or system reward inside it."
So that explains it!
No wonder he was given a pure Byakugan.
Neji chuckled with excitement.
That meant he didn't have to train hard every day. Just a few casual chats or games with Hinata could yield valuable rewards.
He could grow stronger effortlessly.
This was practically a cheat code for a laid-back life.
Sure, he didn't mind working hard but if there was a shortcut to power, why not take it?
Wait a minute…
He only had to interact with a female?
"System, aren't you called the 'Little Sister System'? Shouldn't I only get rewards for interacting with my sisters?"
Neji rubbed his chin, his expression skeptical.
Everyone knows, he only had two sisters.
Hyuga Hinata. Hyuga Hanabi.
If it were limited to just those two, the reward pool would be pretty narrow.
"The host is reminded to maintain proper perspective. You must remember… they are all sisters."
Oh-ho!
Now that was bold.
This had a similar energy to that one infamous line: "You're all my little brothers!"
If people ever found out about this system, he'd probably get beaten to a pulp.
After training solo for a while to get accustomed to the new Byakugan and chakra control, Neji made his way to the other side of the training grounds.
This area was filled with wooden training puppets. Each puppet was inscribed with sixty-four chakra points of the human body.
Once a person entered the training zone, the puppets would activate. The only way to deactivate them was to strike all sixty-four chakra points accurately.
It had to be said the Hyuga clan spared no effort in nurturing their younger generation.
At the very least, Neji hadn't heard of any other clan that had this kind of advanced training facility.
No wonder they were once the second most powerful family in the entire Leaf Village.
Still, Neji didn't care much about that. He was here for one thing only: to test out his Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms.
With the pure Byakugan activated…
Neji smiled faintly and leapt into the crowd of training puppets.
Dozens of wooden figures activated instantly, converging on him with deadly precision.
He didn't dare take them lightly. Rumor had it even elite jonin couldn't dodge all of their strikes unscathed.
"Byakugan!"
"Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms!"
The pure Byakugan granted him an edge he could sense the movements and attacks of the puppets far more quickly and accurately.
His attacks, already swift and precise, became almost flawless with the new Byakugan.
With 360-degree vision and no blind spots, his palm strikes rarely missed.
Even when overwhelmed by numbers, he could rely on the Eight Trigrams: Rotation to repel them all.
"Hyuga-style taijutsu… offense and defense in one. Truly formidable," Neji praised.
After a round of intense training, he'd taken about twenty hits.
But the results were more than worth it. At the very least, his chakra control and mastery of Hyuga-style taijutsu had improved significantly.
"System, show me my status screen."
