I'm In Konoha, Start With A Forest Fruit

"Forget it, go see the old man of Third Generation..."

Had a delicious barbecue with Tiantian and Ino.

Lu Ren then sent the two girls back.

And under the reluctant eyes of the two girls, they made an appointment to meet in the "old place" in the afternoon.

On the Hokage rock from a distance, there is already a Konoha Shinobi who is good at Earth Style, who is responsible for repairing the cracked Hokage rock and clearing the green bushes on the head of the Third Generation fire-shadow.

So I took the time to go to the Hokage building and met with Third Hokage.

The name of "Medical Sage" Qianye Lu Ren has already been widely spread in Konoha.

As Sannin Tsunade Ji's direct disciple, and third Hokage's disciple in name, no one will make things difficult for him, so he will report it soon.

"Lu Ren, it's rare that you still remember to meet me, an old man..."

Inside Hokage's office.

Looking at the ridiculously young boy in front of him, Third Hokage spoke with a smile.

"Master Hokage was joking, you are not only Hokage, but also sister Tsunade's teacher, and you are also my teacher in name..."

With a smile on his face, Lu Ren looked humble and polite.

Not at all as rebellious as in the morning, he said with some embarrassment: "'Respect the teacher and respect the way, respect the old and love the young' is a fine tradition in the village for a long time...... I just came back, I'm too busy ?"

This has to be mentioned.

Since First Hokage and Second Hokage passed away one after another.

Over the years, the line of Hokage has implemented the fine tradition of "respecting teachers and respecting morality" to Ultimate.

It's just that it's going in the opposite direction.

All of them are ruthless, deceiving their masters and destroying their ancestors, and disciples of saint teachers to prove the way.

by contrast.

He was a rebel who only wanted to be the fifth hokage man.

It seems that it is really very kind, a white lotus that emerges from the mud but does not stain.

Thinking of this, Lu Ren couldn't help holding his head high.

Between the brows, there is a light and majesty.

Full of confidence.

The corner of Third Hokage's mouth twitched when he heard this.

If it weren't for what happened in the morning, he might really believe that this is a young man who is humble, polite and respects his teachers.

"Ahem...that's right, where the leaves are dancing, the fire is always alive..."

Chatterbox opened.

Third Hokage began to talk eloquently and at length.

To Lu Ren, instill the magic weapon that he has ruled Konoha all these years, and when dealing with those hot-blooded stunned youths, the magic weapon that is invincible--the will of fire!

Two hours later.

Lu Ren walked out of the Hokage building with black lines all over his head.

The old man rambled and tested there for a long time.

With the will to keep his mouth shut, he completely regards Lu Ren as his future successor, as if as long as he grows up, he can naturally become the next Hokage.

But Lu Ren just doesn't like oil and salt.

Not to mention whether Third Hokage has such thoughts.

Even if he really wanted to train him as Hokage's successor, he had no interest at all.

Hokage's seat.

He has always kept his distance.

Free and unrestrained, isn't it?

Being tied up in the office to review documents all day long, tired until midnight and having no time to rest, what good is there?

He just needs Hokage to be "one of his own".

so.

He refused in a few words.

Lu Ren hurriedly bid farewell and left.

Seeing that Yuhihong didn't come back.

Lu Ren didn't bother to go back and disturb the Xianglin mother and daughter who had just been reunited.

Walk aimlessly.

Unknowingly came to the suburbs.

"Gentle Fist Method Eight Trigrams...Sixteen Palms!"

"Bang bang..."

far away.

A thin figure in training clothes with a fire cloth tied on his head.

There, the figure was swift, and the bandaged palms turned into afterimages.

He kept beating the wooden stakes in front of him one after another.

It was a classmate whom I hadn't seen for two years --- Hyuga Neji.

"Huh......... Huh......"

Although never looked back.

But Hyuga Neji, who was panting there, had bulging veins in the corners of his eyes, and his white eyes were alluring.

"Lu Ren!?" The pupils shrank subconsciously.

Relying on the Hyuga family's vision that allows him to see through everything without any blind angles at 360 degrees, regardless of obstacles.

He noticed Lu Ren directly.

And, from that somewhat familiar appearance, the other party appeared.

But in the chakra meridian system of the other party, the Chakra is so huge that it is outrageous.

He couldn't help but his pupils shrank sharply, and he couldn't believe it.

"Um?"

Looking at the familiar figure in front of him.

Lu Ren raised his eyebrows, also a little surprised.

Greeting with a smile: "Hey, Neji, long time no see......

He has been walking aimlessly, admiring the scenery that he has not seen for two years.

The perception ability is not turned on all the time.

It's exhausting to live like that.

"You're back?"

Neji was amazed.

He naturally knew that the person in front of him had already been accepted as a disciple by the legendary Sannin, "Princess Konoha" Tsunade.

In the past two years, Lu Ren has been practicing with the other party.

"Well, just came back..."

Looking at the Bloodline oozing faintly from Hyuga Neji's bandage.

Lu Ren couldn't help but marvel: "You really worked hard...you can hit sixteen palms in an instant, you really deserve to be a genius of the Hyuga family!"

‥...seeking flowers...0

Although Xiao Li really worked very hard.

But I have to say that even if Neji's efforts are not as good as Xiao Li's, they are not far behind.

Behind the name of genius, it also represents countless blood, sweat and hard work.

"Hmph, compared to you, it's too far behind.

Although they didn't fight each other, Neji can analyze the huge gap between the two just from the huge amount of Chakra.

There is no intention of challenging the other party at all.

Perhaps, this is fate.

Some people are destined to be the kind of true geniuses that are rare in the world, dazzling, and countless people can only look up to.

Some people, even if they try their best, are just ordinary geniuses in people's eyes after all, unable to get rid of that sad fate.

Some people, no matter how hard they try and how unwilling they are to give up, they can't change their mediocre talents, and they are destined to be the bottom of the crane.

Think here.

Neji couldn't help clenching his fists.

Keep talking about fate.

It is precisely the performance that he is most unwilling to succumb to fate.

Obviously in the Hyuga family, his talent is not weaker than anyone else.

Even far surpassing that cowardly and mediocre eldest lady of the clan family.

However, the other party was born into a clan, with a high status and respected by others.

And the talent and ability are far better than the opponent's self, born at the day is the so-called branch house.

Even life and death are controlled by people, and they are born to protect the clan.

Said to be a member of the Hyuga family, but it seems to be a servant enslaved by the main family.

Can never get rid of that sad fate.

"Are you unwilling to accept your fate?"

Lu Ren knew it in his heart.

He is naturally very clear about Hyuga Neji.

It has to be said that Hyuga Hizashi, Hyuga Neji's father, was really unlucky.

Obviously, it was only a minute or two later than Hyuga Hiashi, who was born as a twin brother.

But the fate of the two is very different.

One, is the respected head of the Hyuga clan.

One, but was portrayed on Curse Mark: Caged Bird since he was a child, a branch house clansman whose life and death are controlled by the clan at all times.

Even Hyuga Neji himself was ruthlessly engraved with Curse Mark: Caged Bird when he was four years old, and failed to escape the fate of branch house.

That's all.

The point is, when Neji was four years old, it wasn't long before he was engraved with Caged Bird.

For some reason, his father died as a branch house instead of Hyuga Hiashi as the head of the clan because his appearance was exactly the same as that of his elder brother Hyuga Hiashi.

reduced to a poor victim.

This made him hate his clan and his own destiny to the extreme. .
