Although he had already activated Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, Zhang Miao remained humble because he only had enough power to protect himself. He was still far from his goal to rule the Ninja World.
In the original work, after Sasuke obtained Itachi's eyes and awakened the Eternal Mangekyo, he became a bit arrogant. He brought his new "Taka" team to capture the Eight-tails, but in the end, he was beaten badly by Killer B.
If not for the help of Jugo and Karin, even though he was Indra's reincarnation, he would surely die.
Madara's eyes were even more powerful. His Sharingan had already evolved to Rinnegan, and he also managed to become the Ten-tails Jinchuuriki. In the end, he was still beaten up by Guy who had opened the Eighth Gate.
If Guy had kicked his head at that time, even though he was the legendary Madara himself, he would succumb to defeat.
With the two examples of Sasuke and Madara in front of him, Zhang Miao would of course double his caution.
"The Ninja World is too dangerous. There are endless kinds of awesome jutsus and forbidden techniques out there. I'd better keep a low profile in the future. Anyway, with Naruto and co. saving the world, I just have to do my own thing. My goal is to live to the end!"
After setting the ultimate goal, Zhang Miao continued to carry out his short-term goal - to continue recruiting Ninjas!
After driving all the people in the room out, Zhang Miao immediately closed the door and took out Neji's fragments.
"Since the system said that it has the perfect solution, then I will give it a try!"
Although Zhang Miao felt that the System he carried was very stupid and narrow-minded, and would occasionally trick him a little, it would not harm him and was very trustworthy.
Therefore, when Zhang Miao took out the Neji's fragments, he bled his thumb again and began to quickly make a seal.
"Summoning Jutsu!"
As Zhang Miao pressed down his blood-stained palm, a burst of white smoke suddenly rose in the room. When the smoke dissipated, Neji, who was wearing a ninja vest, appeared in front of Zhang Miao.
"Responded to the summoning. I ask of you, are you my Master?"
Zhang Miao: "...."
"What now? Artoria Pendragon?"
At this time, Zhang Miao did not know how to respond, and the system did not give him the chance to. As soon as Neji's voice disappeared, the system's voice echoed in Zhang Miao's brain.
"[Ding! Congratulations to the host for recruiting a 6-star Elite Jonin, Hyuga Neji, and obtaining Neji's chakra reserve. Since Neji is a Gentle Fist user, the host has gained a specialty: Shock Strike. Every time host uses Taijutsu, the additional power will shock the opponent's internal organs.
"Shock Strike?"
Hearing this specialty, Zhang Miao's brows immediately moved.
Although Zhang Miao now had Mangekyo Sharingan, he could not easily expose it now. Otherwise, he would definitely attract a lot of trouble. The same case also applied to the Ino-Shika-Cho combo. Unless it was absolutely necessary, he could not use it.
Therefore, Zhang Miao's regular attacks were still based on Taijutsu.
As for Zhang Miao's Taijutsu, it had always been direct. This kind of attack was extremely effective against those with weak defense, but once he encountered a ninja who specialized in defense, it seemed to be somewhat lacking.
For example, in the original plot, when Rock Lee faced Gaara in the Chuunin Exam, just breaking his opponent's Sand Armor took a lot of effort. If not for the fact that he had the Eight Inner Gates, then he would definitely have lost very badly in that battle.
Moreover, Gaara was nothing compared to some monsters like the Raikage who could fight against a Tailed Beast. Unless he opened the Eight Inner Gates, his Strong Fist would probably only tickle the old man.
But with the "Shock Strike" specialty, it was different.
Now that Zhang Miao had grasped the monstrous strength, even if the opponent was a Kage-level ninja, as long as they took a punch from him, he would inevitably break a few of their ribs. In addition, the Shock Strike was a specialty that could attack the opponent's internal organs. Even if against Raikage's Strongest Shield, Zhang Miao was confident that he could beat him until he screamed!
It could be said that the "Shock Strike" was very useful for regular physical attacks!
Thinking of this, Zhang Miao nodded with satisfaction.
"Hm, I really picked up a treasure this time. System, help me open Neji's specialties list!"
"Yes, the system now opens the list for the Host!"
The system was still as clean and efficient as before. As soon as the notification sounded out, Neji's specialties list appeared in front of Zhang Miao like a screen.
[Option 1:]
[Bloodline Limit - Byakugan: Hyuga clan's prized dojutsu. The following abilities will be obtained: Enhanced Vision Range, X-Ray Vision, 360-degree Vision, and Subjugation.]
[Note:]
[Enhanced Vision Range: With the Byakugan, the user can see the situation in a radius of one kilometer.]
[X-ray Vision: When opening the Byakugan, the user can see through objects, enabling you to see them ]
[360-degree vision: When opening the white eye, the user will have a 360-degree field of view. ]
[Subjugation: By releasing a huge pressure of chakra through the Byakugan, the user can make the surrounding enemies faint and cause substantial damage to the surrounding environment (Requirements not met). ]
[Remark: This is a pair of eyes that are not inferior to the Sharingan. ]
[Option 2: ]
[Hyuga Bloodline: Giving the host the Hyuga DNA. Without the Hyuga Bloodline, the Byakugan will be greatly restricted and the user will be unable to use the Subjugation ability]
[Note: Without the Hyuga Bloodline, the Byakugan can not be compared with the Sharingan.]
[Option 3:]
[Gentle Fist: A fighting style exclusive to the Hyuga clan. It can directly attack the opponent's Chakra Pathway System. At the same time, it can also damage the opponent's internal organs. The jutsu included: Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven, Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms, Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm, and Eight Trigrams Mountain Crusher.]
[Note: To others, it is a treasure, but to the host, it's worthless.]
Zhang Miao quickly finished reading the three options. When he saw the annotations of the third option, he could not help but laugh.
"Haha, it seems that you know me very well, system. Gentle Fist is indeed useless to me, so I will choose this for now!"
As he spoke, Zhang Miao pointed to the second option. Just as his hand touched it, the system's prompt sounded.
"[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Hyuga Bloodline. After awakening the Byakugan, you can obtain the Byakugan's complete abilities!]"
Hearing this notification, Zhang Miao nodded in satisfaction again.
"This is what I want!"
At this point, Zhang Miao seemed to have thought of something and quickly turned to look at Neji who was standing at the side.
"Neji, is your Cursed Seal still here?"
Hearing Zhang Miao's words, Neji did not speak but directly untied the Konoha forehead guard on his head. Looking at his bright forehead, Zhang Miao immediately grinned.
"Haha, good. Since you don't have any cursed seal, you will no longer be bound by that ugly fate. So from today on, your name is Hyuga Yuji!"
As soon as Zhang Miao finished speaking, Yuji, who had received his new name, immediately knelt down on one knee toward him.
"Thank you, Master!"
"Uh..." Hearing this address, Zhang Miao immediately covered his forehead and then waved his hand at Yuji. "Don't call me that. In the future, you should call me 'Boss'!"
"Yes, Boss!"
