Chapter 12 Hyuga Zonghui

There was a faint sound of breaking through the air, and it hit the runner’s leg after a short while.

“clatter!”

The wooden needle fell on the ground, and the runner ran away from the alley without any influence.

Neji didn’t pursue it, standing still thinking carefully.

Sure enough, the power of the wooden needle is still insufficient…

If it is a steel needle or a silver needle, as long as the force is sufficient and the iron plate is not worn on the body, it can easily pass through the clothes and hit the acupuncture points. But if the wooden needle wants to hit the acupoint through the clothes, the force required to throw it is very large.

To gain this Isshin, this battle is not White Hits either.



Looking at the few people on the ground who were humming, Neji warned: “For the sake of the same clan, I will let you go this time. Next time who dares to find the difference…” He stared at Hyuga Silicon, “I’ll give up. Don’t even think about using Gentle Fist for the rest of your life with anyone’s hands.”

“…!”

Hyuga’s silicon lips squirmed a few times, but after all, she didn’t dare to say anything.

Even though he is Chūnin, he is quite a bit older, and he and Neji are still distant relatives. In fact, Neji should call him “brother”. But in Neji’s eyes, he only saw the merciless coldness.

This guy… never kidding!

Neji threw off a few people and left the alley to go home.

After thinking about it for a moment, he guessed that he was seen when Hanabi came to him last night.

Those people didn’t know why, and thought it was him who bullied the small.

But after thinking about it, I knew it was impossible. Even the original Neji was not of this kind of character, it was impossible to do this kind of thing. These branch house guys are obviously not pleasing to his eyes at ordinary times, so this time they deliberately borrowed the topic to play.

“It’s boring.”

Neji didn’t think much anymore, he had warned anyway, if someone provokes him again, he really wouldn’t mind making a heavy hand.

After eating dinner calmly, he started to practice step by step.

After the previous combat missions, these days, he has accumulated a total of 11 energy bars, but it is a pity that he can’t upgrade anything.

Basics Gentle Fist needs 50 tubes from master to grandmaster, and 30 tubes for Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms from proficient to Grandmaster.

Byakugan has not changed, because it has not been upgraded, so it still needs 20 tubes from the degraded version to the normal version.

For the time being, none of these have enough energy to upgrade, but Neji is not very anxious. One of his current practice focuses on physical fitness, and the other is flying needle punching.

Physical fitness is the most basic, not to mention the level of Guy, at least not much worse than Xiao Li. Flying needle punching acupuncture points is to supplement his current lack of medium and long-range combat capabilities. Although, this defect can also be supplemented by other tricks.

For example, one way is to find a way to sign a contract with a “Summoning beast” who is good at long-range attacks. When long-range warfare is needed, Summoning directly comes out to assist in the battle.

But let’s not say that such a Summoning beast is hard to find, even if it is found, it will be a “foreign object” after all. If the enemy’s continuous offensive forces you to have no time for Summoning, then it won’t be useful.

Another way is to rely on teammates to replenish long-range combat power, such as Tenten’s hidden weapon continuous bomb… After all, this is the meaning of the team’s existence.

In a small team, some people are good at close combat, some are good at long-range, some are good at illusion, and some are good at observation or medical treatment, and they can make up for each other’s shortcomings and fight more properly.

However, Neji still wants to make himself more versatile. If he is too dependent on others, it can only do more harm than good. Once something happens to the dependent person, he will fall into a situation of isolation and helplessness.

After practicing for an hour or so, suddenly someone came to the door.

“Tuk-Tuk-Tuk.”

There was a knock on the door, and Neji stopped.

“The door is open, please come in.”

“Crunch—”

The wooden door was pushed open, and an old man wearing a felt hat, a loose robe, and a cane entered the yard.

Neji saw the old man and said, “Elder Zonghui.”

“Hehe, Neji, good evening.”

The visitor was named Hyuga Zonghui, a respected elder of the branch house. When he was young, he also served as the escort of the last Patriarch, and his strength is good.

Neji wiped the sweat from his forehead with a towel, looked at the old man, and asked, “Is this elder Zonghui coming for Hyuga Si?”

He hadn’t had much contact with the elders, and now that he came to the door, he could only come for what happened in the alley.



Hyuga Zonghui smiled and sat down in the hallway, putting his crutches aside.

“Neji, Silicon and the others should play, you play well.”

“…”

“If you don’t know what happened, you will provoke, and you still have the face to come to me to complain.” Hyuga Zonghui snorted, “I just reprimanded them severely, and then asked them to apologize to you.”

“Then there is no need.” Neji said, “As long as they don’t bother me again.”

“Hehe, definitely not.”

Hyuga Zonghui looked at the Wooden Golem in the courtyard, and the traces left on the acupuncture points were obvious. With a glance, he could judge that Neji’s acupuncture skills were already very deep.

“Neji, I know you are very dissatisfied with the clan because of your father.”

“…”

“But, have you ever thought that our branch house is bound by the Caged Bird, but… also protected by it.” Hyuga Zonghui took off his hat, with white hair down, and on his wrinkled forehead, Curse Mark: Caged Bird is particularly conspicuous.

Neji raised his eyebrows slightly: “Protection?”

Hyuga Zonghui nodded: “Although Byakugan of the Hyuga clan keeps secrets, the other leaders of Ninja Village still know well and covet this extremely powerful investigative power on the battlefield. A long, long time ago, other forces also paid. At a great price, the kidnapping of members of the Hyuga clan happened.”

“…”

“But since the appearance of Caged Bird, there have been few such things.” Hyuga Zonghui said bitterly, “Neji, you are very smart, you should be able to figure it out. It is precisely because the other high-level people in the hidden village know that the branch house is taken away. It can also destroy the cranial nerves through the curse mark, thereby blocking Byakugan’s secret… That’s why it stopped targeting the Hyuga clan.

As for the Zong family, because under heavy protection, they rarely go out of the village, so it is very difficult for the enemy to take captives. In this way, the secrets of Byakugan of the Hyuga clan can be kept forever, without worrying about being caught by the enemy Master. Similarly, the life and wealth of the branch house is no longer so dangerous.

If there is no Caged Bird, do you know how many branch houses will fall into extremely dangerous situations? Yes, it is really ugly, and it will make the branch house planted by the curse a painful feeling, but compared with life, these trivial things are nothing. ”

Hyuga Zonghui said a lot in one breath, it seems that the same thing has not been said twice.

Neji knows very well that there are some branch houses that reject Caged Bird like him, but some of them endure and don’t show up, and some gradually get used to it.

Hyuga Zonghui’s words are not completely unreasonable, but it does not mean that it applies to everyone.

Besides, the enemy’s coveting is not a reason for self-defense…

Neji’s eyes were calm, and his tone was as flat as a glass of clear water: “Elder Zonghui, I understand what you said. But it doesn’t mean I will agree.”

“……why?”

“It’s not why, I don’t like it.” Neji looked at his hands, because he practiced Gentle Fist all the time, in order to protect his palms, his hands have been wrapped in bandages, witnessing the years of practice.

“And is this the style of a clan? Because I am afraid of the enemy coveting it, I put a shackle on my clansmen… Or, only in this way can the clan clan be the clan clan forever?”

Hyuga Zonghui’s face suddenly sank: “Neji, be careful!”

Neji shrugged indifferently.

His attitude fell in the eyes of Hyuga Zonghui, very disappointed.

“Neji…” Hyuga Zonghui took the cane, put on his hat, stood up and gave the last word of comfort.

“You are an undoubted genius in this generation. In the future, Ms. Hinata and Ms. Hanabi, no matter who is the head of the house, you must take good care of your protection. In this way, you should become the elder of the family in the future. When you become the elder, you can also You have partial decision-making power on the affairs of the clan, and it’s not too late to change what you want to change at that time… Don’t ruin your great future.”

After speaking, Hyuga Zonghui walked out tremblingly.

“I remember Elder Zong Hui’s words, walk slowly and don’t send them away.”

Neji watched him leave, his eyes cold.

The threat in Hyuga Zonghui’s words meant that he understood it. This is not surprising. It seems that several elders are also quite dissatisfied with his affairs.

Also, he is not only a new generation leader of the Hyuga clan, but also a well-known genius in the village. Such him, if he often opposed the clan in public, the impact on the clan would naturally be extremely bad.

Although that was done by the predecessor Neji, it can be seen now that many people in the clan have tolerated him for a long time…

“Really… the fist is not hard enough.”
