Summer, the sixty-first year of Konoha.
At five-thirty in the morning, it was the practice ground on the west side of the Hinata family mansion.
Sweat dripped onto the hard soil and was absorbed instantly, leaving only dark dots. Hinata Qi adjusted his breathing and assumed the starting position of Soft Fist. His movements were standard, and every palm thrust was accompanied by the sound of wind, but the wind was very thin and dissipated after the third palm.
There were more than a dozen other children of the same age standing next to them, each with a white bandage on their forehead. Under the bandage, there is a cyan Caged Bird curse seal.
