Chapter 22

Neji couldn’t fall asleep all night.

The discovery of Chakra’s qualitative change made him once again re-examine the role of “Crimson”.

Before, he only regarded it as a “skill modifier”. However, it now appears that it is not a simple and crude direct modification. But… first absorb natural energy, and then through some transformation, inject it into his body.

In this way, Neji hardly needs additional training, so that his Chakra has undergone a qualitative change.

This was definitely a surprise to him, but he was not dizzy either. After calming down, what should he do.



He is now like a beggar holding a cornucopia. The future is infinite, but he is still a beggar at the moment, and he still has to “catch his tail to be a man.”

Otherwise, Muxiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, after all, as far as Konoha’s interior is concerned, it is not an absolutely safe pure land. Isn’t it enough to teach the Uchiha clan to kill the door overnight? Those powerful Uchiha ninjas still serve as police officers in the Konoha Guard Department during the day to maintain law and order. It is estimated that no one would have thought of dying cleanly on their own territory at night.

The next day.

Neji went to the training ground, and Tenten suddenly pulled him over and said mysteriously: “Neji, the iron tree is blooming!”

“……what?”

“Xiao Li! I mean Xiao Li!” With an Eight Trigrams smile on Tenten’s face, he lowered his voice, “He likes a girl!”

“Oh really?”

“Of course it’s true! After training yesterday, I went to Ino’s house to buy flowers. I happened to see Xiao Li on the road, staring at a girl, blushing like a lantern.”

Tenten chuckled and said, “I’ve inquired about that girl named Haruno Sakura. She is still studying at Ninja School and will graduate next year.”

“…”

“Haha, I didn’t expect Xiao Li, who only knows how to train, would also like girls!”

“This, it’s normal.”

“Really? By the way, by the way, Neji, you are also a training madman. Do you have a girl you like?”

Tenten said casually. Neji didn’t answer after she finished speaking, she was a little embarrassed.

“Hey, it doesn’t matter if you don’t say anything, I… I just asked casually!”

Seeing her like this, Neji couldn’t help but smile: “I’m better at practicing now.”

“Hey? But Neji, you are already very strong, right.” Tenten actually thought he would say that, but he didn’t quite understand the reason.

In her opinion, Neji is unique in all aspects. He is from a famous background, has outstanding talents, appearance conditions are nothing to fault, and his personality is also quite good.

Such a person can already live happily. Why do they have to become stronger?

Tenten can understand that Xiao Li’s obsession is to prove her forbearance, but for Neji, she has always been able to understand only one-sidedly and can’t go deep into her heart.

“Strong and weak are all made by contrast. I am stronger than you. But compared with my enemy, it is still terrifyingly weak.”

“… Neji, who is your enemy?”

Neji shook his head: “I can’t say who it is, it should be said that it is a rule. Of course, those who maintain this set of rules will naturally become my enemy.”

“…”

Tenten could probably guess what Neji was talking about as “rules”.

Her father also told her about Hyuga’s branch house. Finally, he said, “I like Neji’s child very much, but he himself should be in pain.”

Tenten had no personal experience and couldn’t empathize with her, but as a companion, she didn’t care about it.

“Neji.” Tenten looked at Neji’s face and shook his clenched fist. “If the enemy you meet is very strong, I will help you!”

Looking at Tenten with a serious look, Neji’s heart warmed: “I know. You are Tenten who is loyal. And you still want to inherit the ninja lady from the ninja shop.”

“Puff!”

Tenten couldn’t help but laughed.

“Who wants to inherit the old man’s shabby ninja shop! I will open one of my own in the future! And only sell fine ninjas, especially expensive ones!!!”

“At that time I will definitely be there.”

“Say good!”

The two talked and laughed, and then they started daily training.

In the distance, Guy and Kakashi are looking at this side.

“Guy, some of your students all look good.” Kakashi put his hands in Kabuto, his tone of voice was calm, his eyes especially on Neji.

“The genius of the Hyuga family’s younger generation does not seem to be in vain.”

“That needs to be said!” Guy was very proud, he was very proud of several students. Three people, each of them valued him very much.


But to say who is most optimistic about the future, it has to be Neji.

“Kakashi, Neji, I think I will surpass me in the future, even beyond… Hokage.”

Kakashi was stunned after hearing the words: “Ah Guy, is it a bit exaggerated?”

Guy shook his head: “He is the ninja with the best physical skills I have ever seen. He is very stable and smart. He likes to use his brain to study new skills. Most importantly, he is from the Hyuga clan… You should know what does this mean.”

“Um……”

Physical talent combined with Byakugan is really one of the best matches.

However, Kakashi knows that things are not that simple.

“A Guy, if this is the case, why do you always look at him with solemn eyes?”

“…Haha, you deserve to be my old enemy! Even the look in my eyes can tell!”

“…”

“Because I can feel that Neji has a very strong desire in his heart. Although this child has always been easy-going, I can always see flames burning under his eyes! This is probably related to the Hyuga clan, and he is very kind to the clan. Dissatisfaction…in the future…in my opinion there may be conflicts that are difficult to reconcile!”

Kakashi was also a little cautious when he heard the words: “Is that so? That’s really an incredible hidden danger.”

“Kakashi, are you the same as I think now?”

Kakashi looked at Guy, and the two looked at each other for a while, both of them understood what was thinking in each other’s mind and thought of the same thing.

“…Yes, Guy.” Kakashi said, “As for the Uchiha clan, no one wants to appear in the village a second time.”

Guy shook his head when he heard this: “Neji is different from Uchiha Itachi, and will never go the same way. Besides…”

Without going on, Guy converged some thoughts and said, “Although Neji is not a clan, but if he shows enough value, he will be respected by everyone. I think Neji himself has this idea…Next year In the Chūnin exam, he will surely win the first place and make a name for himself.”

“Oh? That’s not necessarily true.” Kakashi had different opinions.

Guy raised his eyebrows.

Kakashi continued: “Next year will be a very lively year. The children of Ino–Shika–Chō will graduate next year, and Sasuke…”

“Sasuke, the surviving child.”

“He is also a genius.”

“After all, they belong to the Uchiha family, and geniuses are commonplace. However, I believe that in front of Neji, any genius will be eclipsed!”

Kakashi shrugged and said nothing.

Guy didn’t plan to give up, grabbing Kakashi’s shoulder: “Kakashi, my old enemy! Why don’t we take a gamble!”

“What are you betting on?”

“Just bet on next year’s Chūnin exam, will Neji get the first place result!”
