Chapter 69
Haruto Saito had just begun sprinting when he suddenly halted. His Byakugan was still active, and as he instinctively glanced to both sides, something caught his eye—another group of people.
His Byakugan allowed for a 360-degree field of vision, but due to his current chakra reserves and ocular prowess, he could only maintain full-surround observation within a limited range. Concentrating his sight in one direction enabled him to see vast distances, possibly up to ten or twenty kilometers, but a full 360-degree scan significantly reduced that range.
Out of habit, he had focused straight ahead, but as he turned slightly, he noticed another presence.
One kilometer southeast, hidden within the forest, six figures maintained a stealth formation, vigilant and scanning their surroundings. Each of them bore distinctive pale eyes and the signature facial creases of the Hyuga clan.
"The Hyuga Clan...?" Haruto murmured to himself before his expression hardened. "They're here to kill me, aren't they?"
His gaze methodically moved across each figure.
"There's even a top-tier Elite Jonin among them."
