If Jugo does enough of these then I think he could disorientate or make Neji stum8le enough for him to get a hit.
The pro8lem is that Neji hasn't 8een shown to fight a single time since the timeskip. He has almost no feats. Although with Jugo's mutated 8ody, I wonder if gentle fist would even work on him.

Personally, I think Jugo's fighting style here is far too rough for him to land a hit on Neji, the Chakra beams are pretty much his only way to win here, and he only used them to surprise A, I'm pretty sure Neji will see it coming and respond
Yea, a heavy brute-power method probably isn't the best way to fight a Hyuga on his level.

It's been reversed once, and blocked once. So it's not a sure thing...
It may be based on Hokuto Shinken, but it's not nearly as effective.
Jugo has reacted to A and managed to block attacks from him(in monster form) and Darui while out of monster form.
He also did this while not in monster form.

Whereas the best showings of Neji's Kaiten post time skip is tearing up some parts of the earth.

Which is inferior to Hisashi's feat here by the way.
^Yeah that might be true...however you have to take into consideration the fact that his Juken style can penetrate Jugo's body and seal his transformation along with the rest of his chakra. The thing is Neji has the reflexes to react and vision to see it coming, Jugo's attacks will be transparent to him and the fact that he doesn't have any real form to his attacks will make them all the more predictable.
Neji as already proven that Eight Trigrams 64 Palms can seal THRU the Curse Mark II...not to mention that battle with Kidomaru was a worst case scenario for Neji in terms of matchups. He would have had a less difficult battle with any of the other Sound ninjas....except maybe Kimimaru; that's assuming he couldn't penetrate his Kekkei Genkai which by all rights he should be able to.
Neji does not have the reflexes to deal with Jugo. Neji has been caught by White Zetsu, the mookiest of the mooks. Jugo has intercepted Darui(who is fast enough to intercept Sasuke, who is faster than pretty much anyone Neji fights post time skip) and reacted to the Raikage. Jugo is faster based on showings, with only the databook implying Neji's speed is anything special.
As for power, Jugo has more power when he is partially transformed that Neji's Trigrams have shown on. Killermode would be much higher than that.
