Hokage: I will never go offline

"Undercurrent? What exactly do you mean?"

Sasuke narrowed his eyes.

He still doesn't like this kind of hypocrisy.

Tsunade began to explain: "Hyuga Neji, this undercurrent, after the Fifth Hokage Hyuga Hinata and I took office as Hokage, it was basically Neji who was in charge."

"undercurrent……"

When Hyuga Ningji was mentioned, Sasuke fell into deep thought.

He began to stop worrying, and seriously thought about the profound meaning of this undercurrent.

It's just that Neji, he thinks, is more or less worthy of serious consideration.

"Tsunade……"

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes, and at this moment, he was also very interested in the meaning of Tsunade's words.

Tsunade sighed and began to speak.

"Sasuke, you have this doubt because the truth about your brother Itachi hit you... To be honest, I only learned about this kind of thing later, but when I knew it, I was the same as you, It was unbelievable at first, and the focus was on the upper echelons of Konoha Village. But because, I know a person who encountered these problems earlier than you, that is Neiji Hyuga... So, I am very concerned about such There are not many doubts about the problem."

Tsunade narrowed his eyes slightly, lost in memory.

"Just right, let me tell you about Neji Hyuga, his story."

"The story is not long, I only tell the identity story about him and Hokage."

"At the Chunin selection meeting three and a half years ago, Orochimaru also participated. There is no need to verify this matter. Now Orochimaru is at the scene."

Tsunade glanced at Orochimaru.

Orochimaru sneered softly, and said: "Hmph, indeed, but this matter has nothing to do with me now, right?"

"It has nothing to do with you? The Third Hokage died because of you, how could it have nothing to do with you!"

Tsunade frowned resentfully, and said: "Even if you saved me, it doesn't mean I will forgive you. As the rebellious ninja of Muye Village, it's fine if you betray the village. I didn't expect you to kill us with your own hands." My master, I have no intention of just letting this account go!"

Seeing Tsunade's angry expression, Orochimaru spread his hands and said, "Okay, it seems that the protagonist today is not me or you, so go on."

Tsunade grunted and continued.

"Neji was already acting in secret during the Chunin Selection Conference. At that time, Sasuke, you should have met Hinata Neji in the Forest of Death, right?"

When Tsunade said it, Sasuke had a complete impression.

Memories flooded my mind.

At the moment when he lost consciousness, he seemed to see a vigorous figure appearing.

"...It is said that at that time, the person who appeared in the forest of death and fought against Orochimaru was Hinata Neji?"

Sasuke asked.

Orochimaru hooked his mouth: "It seems that you already know it! Yes, I didn't expect it at that time, it was the time when my body was the weakest, and with the addition of a rival in love, I really didn't expect that the Hyuga clan who is a ninja Brat, you actually grasped my weakness thoroughly and entangled me! I almost killed myself in that battle! But at that time, I was still more interested in you! Sasuke-kun!"

Orochimaru raised an eyebrow and glanced at Sasuke.

Sasuke, on the other hand, had cold eyes and eyebrows, and didn't intend to talk to Orochimaru at all.

"what's next?"

Chong Wu asked.

About this story, he seemed to have heard half of Sasuke's story, but he didn't expect to hear the full version today!

"That's right, at that time, that person was Neji. I didn't understand at that time...Of course, everyone didn't understand. A ninja, even if his strength has risen rapidly, there is no need to do that kind of thing. In the very For a long time, I thought Neji was a reckless kid. He was fed up with being called the tail of the crane before, but he didn't hate it. Every time that guy showed his strength, he was forced..."

She let out a breath and said, "Oshemaru, do you still remember the Sannin War at that time? Neji Hyuga came and saved me and Jiraiya..."

Orochimaru smiled softly: "I really remembered when you said that! Neji-kun has always had a great impact on my plan, but I also discovered more interesting things because of it. Talent, it turns out that the upper limit is so high...that's a shining talent that is even more extraordinary than the Itachi back then..."

Tsunade ignored Orochimaru's muttering, and continued: "Many of Neji's actions, after I became Hokage, I started to be bewildered. The reason is that I knew the arrangement of the third generation. At that time , Ningji Hyuga made a deal with the third generation in advance."

"trade?"

Sasuke frowned slightly.

"That's right, Neji is an undercurrent, and it started to surge at that time. Before the Fifth Hokage and I, the Sixth Hokage, took office, as a ninja, he was already surging in the dark, using the title of Hokage , took advantage of everyone's judgment on him..."

"What kind of deal did you make?" Sasuke was very interested.

"I don't know what the specific transaction is, but in that transaction, Neji and the third generation finally reached an agreement. That is, Neji split up the plan of Orochimaru."

Tsunade's eyes fixed on Orochimaru.

Orochimaru was also taken aback, and opened his mouth slightly.

"Before the battle started, the master who was in the dark in the death forest, the master who helped Anbu out of the siege, and Anbu who overheard the negotiating between Sand Ninja Maki and Kazuma before Hayate died, all... Neji alone!"

Orochimaru was not shocked by this news, but Sasuke was quite surprised.

"At that time already..."

Sasuke gasped, at that time, he was still trying to master Chidori, and couldn't sleep at night!

And Neji, in the battle with the elite Jonin, has rapidly improved his strength!

"Ningji saw through Orochimaru's plan, but as a 13-year-old boy, that guy didn't seem to intend to report it completely. He used this matter to make a deal with the third generation, and finally established the police department of the Hyuga clan. After the death of the third generation , Neji successfully used the handwritten order left by the third generation to take Konoha's high-ranking army."

"At that time, Konoha's high-level officials had already begun to shake because of the end of the ninjas in the old era. But the appearance of Neji just took advantage of Orochimaru's plan this time, so that those who wanted to secretly control the situation lost the initiative. Because It was the third generation and Neji who settled the disaster. And the third generation just died in that battle, and the final benefit should all belong to Neji."

"Ningji took advantage of that battle to show his value in the hearts of the high-level. But he closed the net when it was time to close it, and included all the fish in the net. The Hyuga clan began to take power. In the name of Sarutobi Asma, Asma, as the son of the third generation, also has a deep relationship with many high-level officials. Asma’s student Ino, through her, successfully met Yamanaka Haiyi and broke into the intelligence department..."

"Promoting friendly cooperation between the Hyuga Clan and the Ministry of Intelligence..."

"Then, all he did was to prove that he is an excellent ninja. Has something to do with me? What does it have to do with the truth about Itachi?" Sasuke narrowed his eyes and asked.

Tsunade's eyes lit up, and he said: "It just so happens that there is a great relationship here! As I said, Neji is an undercurrent. Since then, the undercurrent has been surging until today!"
