ACSP: Chapter 56: Byakugan vs. Sharingan, Prepare to Have Your Eyes Gouged Out!
Jiang Chen smiled.
He ignored Zhao Gang and turned to look at Zhang Xiaolin, asking, "Is this person your friend?"
"I... I guess so."
Zhang Xiaolin said hesitantly.
Although Zhao Gang was annoying, they had indeed been in the same team before.
She had to admit that much.
Seeing Jiang Chen ignore him and ask Zhang Xiaolin such a question, Zhao Gang's face immediately darkened.
"What? If I weren't their friend, were you planning to fight me?"
As he spoke, the veins around his eyes bulged, and his originally pitch-black pupils instantly transformed into a vast expanse of white.
——Byakugan!
The Byakugan in this world not only possesses the three basic functions of telescopic vision, X-ray vision, and insight.
But when looking through a target, it can also directly detect the other person's level.
After activating the Byakugan, Zhao Gang immediately saw Jiang Chen's level.
"Level 22?"
He was stunned at first, then immediately burst out laughing. "A Level 22 piece of trash, this is hilarious! Xiaolin, even if you can't find a decent damage dealer, you don't need to find a piece of trash like this to just make up the numbers, right? Tell me, did this kid get into the team through connections?"
Zhang Xiaolin frowned and said, "He is indeed Yanran's friend, but..."
"So he's Yanran's friend, no wonder."
Zhao Gang interrupted her directly, then turned to Jiang Chen and said in a mocking tone, "Kid, living off a woman might be a skill, but..."
"——Bang!"
Before he could finish his sentence, a fist smashed into him ruthlessly.
Zhao Gang managed to raise his arms to block just in time, but he was still sent flying by the immense force from the fist, crashing straight into the crowd behind him and knocking over a large group of people.
"Sorry, your friend was too noisy."
Jiang Chen retracted his fist and looked at Zhang Xiaolin and the others; although he spoke words of apology, his face remained as calm as a still well.
Zhang Xiaolin and the others smiled at each other and said nothing.
Zhao Gang got what he deserved; of all the people to provoke,
he just had to provoke Jiang Chen.
This guy was a ruthless character who could go toe-to-toe with an Elite Jonin in the secret realm.
Even if the City Lord came, he would probably be somewhat wary of him.
Let alone a mere Zhao Gang.
"Holy crap! He actually beat up Zhao Gang."
"This kid is in trouble. Zhao Gang is a Tokubetsu Jonin Contractor with the Byakugan Bloodline Limit; I heard even the City Lord thinks highly of him."
"But then again, to be able to send Zhao Gang flying with one punch, his strength is pretty good."
"That was a sneak attack, not the act of a real man. I could do it too if I were him..."
The people nearby exclaimed in surprise when they saw Jiang Chen send Zhao Gang flying with a single punch.
As a Tokubetsu Jonin Contractor with the Byakugan Bloodline Limit, Zhao Gang was quite famous in Jinghai City and was highly regarded by City Lord Li Hongfei.
No one expected someone here would dare to strike him.
"Jiang Chen, don't listen to them. I've hated that Zhao Gang for a long time; you did well to punch him!"
Ye Ju secretly gave Jiang Chen a thumbs up.
She found herself admiring Jiang Chen more and more.
He didn't say much, but he really stepped up when things happened.
And his strength was freakishly high.
At Level 22, he could already solo Elite Jonin and Ice Release Ninjas in Hell-level Secret Realms.
She could hardly imagine how much his strength would skyrocket if he reached Level 50 and fused with his contracted character.
Jiang Chen shrugged indifferently and was about to say something.
But in the next second,
several Shuriken suddenly shot out from the crowd, arriving directly in front of him.
Furthermore, those Shuriken were all stuck with burning explosive tags.
"You're seeking death."
Jiang Chen didn't move, but a bone-chilling Chakra aura rapidly surged from his body.
As soon as this Chakra came into contact with the air, it instantly condensed into a layer of crystal-clear frost.
The Shuriken with explosive tags didn't even touch the corner of his clothes before they were frozen into ice sculptures and fell to the ground.
"Ice Release Bloodline Limit? No wonder you're so arrogant, kid. It seems I underestimated you before."
Zhao Gang walked slowly out of the crowd with a venomous expression.
An illusory figure had already appeared behind him.
The figure mirrored his movements, and its eyes were white just like his.
"Not good, this guy has already fused with his contracted character."
Ye Ju thought to herself that things were bad and hurriedly warned Jiang Chen, "Jiang Chen, his Gentle Fist Taijutsu and Eight Trigrams Palm Techniques are very powerful; combined with the Byakugan, he can target your weaknesses. Be careful..."
"Too talkative."
Seeing Ye Ju reveal his specialty attack methods, a hint of killing intent rose in the depths of Zhao Gang's eyes.
"——Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm!"
Without another word, while spreading out the Eight Trigrams Divination Map, he struck a palm toward Ye Ju from a distance.
A dense burst of Chakra air blocks erupted.
The Vacuum Palm had not yet arrived.
The powerful wind from the palm already sent Ye Ju's hair and clothes fluttering in all directions.
Ye Ju was locked within Zhao Gang's Eight Trigrams formation and had no way to dodge the strike.
—Bang!
Right at that moment.
A massive blade over two meters tall flew through the air, plunging straight into the ground in front of Ye Ju, blocking the Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm.
"You are from the City Lord's Mansion, so I didn't want to make things difficult for you, but I can feel that you really want to kill me right now..."
Jiang Chen looked at Zhao Gang expressionlessly, his tone gradually turning cold.
A contemptuous smile appeared at the corners of Zhao Gang's mouth as he snorted coldly, "The rule of this world now is the survival of the fittest. I am the only Contractor in Jinghai City with the Byakugan Bloodline Limit. Even if I kill you in front of all these people, the City Lord won't do anything to me because my value to the City Lord's Mansion is immeasurable..."
"Is that so? Then what if I gouge out your Byakugan?"
"What did you say?"
Zhao Gang's expression changed drastically.
Dojutsu Bloodline Limits, just like Tailed Beast power, could be transplanted and plundered.
However, this information was only known to those who had contracted a Dojutsu Bloodline Limit.
It concerned their own interests and safety.
Currently, no possessor of a Dojutsu Bloodline Limit had made this information public.
Yet Zhao Gang never expected that...
...this level 22 guy in front of him would actually know this secret.
At that moment, Jiang Chen's pupils instantly transformed into a blood-red color.
Three-Tomoe Sharingan—Activate!
"Come, let me experience the Hyuga Clan's Byakugan and Eight Trigrams Palm!"
As Jiang Chen spoke, he had already begun to rapidly weave hand signs.
"Lightning Style: Chidori Senbon!"
In an instant.
A dense swarm of Lightning Release needles enveloped Zhao Gang like a violent storm.
"Sharingan? You actually have a Dojutsu Bloodline Limit too..."
Facing Jiang Chen's flood-like offensive, Zhao Gang had no time to think and immediately took the starting stance of the Eight Trigrams Palm.
Then, with a shift of his feet...
...a powerful current of Chakra surged violently from all the acupoints across his body.
—Eight Trigrams Palm: Rotation!
