I'm In Konoha, Start With A Forest Fruit

"Alas...…………

The breeze blows.

On the open grass.

The two, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, sat there and chatted.

I heard that Lu Ren has experienced so much outside in the past two years.

In contrast, I can only sit in the small village of Konoha, like a frog at the bottom of a well, watching the sky from the well.

Hyuga Neji was even more envious.

"Oh? Is Xiao Li accepted as a disciple by Jōnin Might Guy?" Hearing Neji say that Xiao Li actually worshiped Jōnin Might Guy as a teacher, Lu Ren was a little surprised.

He didn't expect that Xiao Li, who was supposed to be accepted as a disciple by Might Guy after graduation.

He even got the approval of Jōnin Might Guy in advance and became his disciple.

"It's not because of you, Lu Ren. You mentioned to him when you came back last time that Konoha Jōnin Might Guy is a strong man who is not good at ninjutsu and specializes in physical arts..."

Hyuga Neji spread his hands helplessly.

Recalling the ups and downs of Xiao Li's apprenticeship, he sighed a little: "When the boy saw you being accepted as a disciple by Sannin, he got so excited that he searched around for Might Guy Jōnin's residence, ran to his door and knelt down. Three days and three nights, and in the end, I followed Might Guy Jōnin for exaggerated training and never gave up "Four Five Seven" for three whole months

"In the end, even Might Guy Jōnin was so impressed by his sincerity that he took him in as his disciple!"

It was the one-sided stupefied young man who was able to persevere.

If it were him, honestly, he would have given up a long time ago.

After all, Neji knows it all.

own arrogance.

It made him unwilling to beg for help in such a humble manner.

Even in a mediocre life, he still has his own persistence.

..." Lu Ren was speechless.

He didn't expect that he just mentioned it casually at the beginning.

It actually made Xiao Li emboldened to worship Might Guy as his teacher.

Moreover, it succeeded.

However, just from Neji's words.

He can feel the hardships and challenges involved.

If it were him, he might not be able to do what Xiao Li did.

Perhaps, because he was not a genius since he was a child, he was called the tail of the crane.

That's why I don't have that kind of arrogance, and I can grit my teeth and insist on doing whatever I'm sure of.

Even if it is a humble beg for help.

"brush......"

The light on the hand dissipated.

Lu Ren healed Neji a bit.

He has exercised all year round and has bruised hands.

And he recuperated his body that inevitably left some hidden injuries due to high-intensity training.

"Thanks.…………"

Neji smiled.

I sincerely thank Lu Ren there.

After Lu Ren's treatment, he really felt a lot more relaxed.

"It's a little effort, you're welcome...

Lu Ren waved his hand.

Looking at Neji's forehead which he purposely covered with a strip of cloth.

He was a little curious, and asked directly: "But, can I take a look at your Caged Bird?"

Although a little presumptuous.

But he was also really curious.

Curse Mark of the Hyuga Clan: What exactly is a Caged Bird like.

After all, he has mastered a lot of sealing techniques through the resources of "root".

In this regard, it can be regarded as an expert.

Like Curse Mark: Caged Bird, it is also a kind of sealing technique.

Hyuga Neji's expression froze.

The whole person fell silent, subconsciously clenched their fists.

Knowing that Lu Ren didn't mean to laugh at himself, he took a deep breath and took off the bandage on his head: "Just watch it if you want!"

I saw a kind of turquoise spell carved on the top of his head.

clear and distinct.

It looks rather ugly.

Let Hyuga Neji have a good appearance, and he has a lot of Martin.

"Isn't it ugly?"

Hyuga Neji was expressionless, and said lightly: "The supercilious eyes of the Hyuga clan have always been coveted by outsiders because of their excellent insight..."

"Therefore, in order to avoid losing the white eyes and protect the safety of the tribe, the ancestors of Hyuga developed Curse Mark: Caged Bird.

"As long as others try to take Baiyan, it will trigger Curse Mark: Caged Bird, directly destroying the white eyes of the Hyuga people."

"Even after death, the white eyes will also be destroyed by Caged Bird."

There is one thing he didn't say.

Because that involves the secret of the Hyuga clan's white eyes.

Caged Bird has a flaw, which will make the 360-degree field of vision of the supercilious eyes appear undetectable dead angles.

To Lu Ren who knows this well, he said bluntly: "I think the reason why you hate it so much is not just because it is like this?"

"That's right, once the Curse Mark: Caged Bird is engraved, you will be controlled by the clan for the rest of your life, life and death are involuntary

Hyuga Neji clenched his fists tightly.

The immature face became a little distorted.

With unconcealable hatred and unwillingness in his eyes, he gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "My father, because of the shackles of Caged Bird, had to sacrifice himself to act as the substitute of the head of the clan, Hyuga Hiashi. Qu's way to die!"

"The Cloud Shinobi Village thing? I've heard of it!"

Lu Ren nodded.

A series of divine operations over the years that Konoha F4 has been in power.

He was really speechless.

How powerful the former Konoha was.

To this day, even being bullied by Cloud Shinobi Village, I can only admit it by pinching my nose.

Back then, Cloud Shinobi Village, who coveted the eyes of the Hyuga family, sent people to kidnap the three-year-old daughter of the Hyuga family, Hyūga Hinata, under the banner of signing an armistice agreement.

He was discovered by Hiashi, the head of the Hyuga family, and killed him to save his daughter.

As a result, Cloud Shinobi Village beat him up and refused to admit it.

Instead, they kept saying that Konoha killed the envoy who came to negotiate on behalf of Cloud Shinobi Village, and threatened to make Konoha hand over the murderer.

In the end, considering that the Third Ninja World War had just ended and the strength had not yet recovered, the Nine Tails Rebellion was followed by a serious injury, and the war weariness of the villagers and ninjas became more and more serious.

Third Hokage could only pinch his nose, and agreed to use Hyuga Hiashi, the twin brother of the Hyuga patriarch, Hyuga Hizashi, to die instead of his elder brother, and handed over his household to Quyin Village.

Although peace was temporarily exchanged, war was avoided.

I also hit it a little bit, a little restless, always wanting to replace the former Senju clan, and the Hyuga clan who fought with Uchiha.

But as far as the result is concerned, it is undoubtedly a huge blow to Konoha's morale.

"It's ridiculous, isn't it?"

Thinking of my father, and my inescapable destiny.

Hyuga Neji was full of bitterness in his heart, and said quietly there: "Obviously they are a pair of twin brothers, but they were born a moment later, but the fate is very different!"

He asked himself even if he was not as talented as Lu Ren...

It is far from being comparable to the eldest lady of the Zong family with mediocre qualifications, cowardly personality, and no talent at all.

He also has no ambition to be the head of the Hyuga clan, he just wants to get rid of the cruel fate of the branch house.

But the Hyuga clan has passed down the Curse Mark: Caged Bird from generation to generation for thousands of years.

But it's like an insurmountable moat.

Bind him tightly.

Like a bird in a cage.

There will never be true freedom.

"Any family rule, no matter what the original intention is.

Stretch out your right hand.

Touched Hyuga Neji's Curse Mark: Caged Bird.

Using Chakra to perceive the complex internal spells, Lu Ren said lightly: "If it remains the same, if you stick to the old and stick to the broken, you will be corrupted if you don't change it.

Same goes for Caged Bird.

As time goes by, although it is also protecting the safety of the branch house people in Hyuga, it has also become a shackle that those branch house people cannot get rid of.

Make them like birds in a cage.

Although they are protected to a certain extent, they will never be able to obtain real freedom.

No one wants their destiny to be controlled by others.

With subtle Chakra manipulations.

Without provoking the seal, Lu Ren inspected the Caged Bird in detail, and retracted his right hand leisurely.

Looking at the depressed and unwilling Hyuga Neji in front of him.

Lu Ren fully understood the feelings of the other party, and said with emotion: "That kind of absolute power in the palm of others' life and death will inevitably lead to the arrogance of those in power in the clan. With the subtle influence of generation after generation, they will gradually leave The original intention of the ancestors....

"Over time, the clan will inevitably treat the entire branch house clansmen as slaves."

For a long time.

The clansmen of the Hyuga branch house are equivalent to servants, and they have guarded the clan for generations.

In order to ensure the continuation and inheritance of the family, the branch house is responsible for guarding the family, and there should be nothing wrong with that. 3.4

But the clan should also lead the Hyuga clan to prosperity, so as to protect the entire clan and make their lives better and more dignified.

This obligation should have been relative.

But the clan holds absolute power, so various problems will inevitably arise.

There is no doubt that the patriarchal patriarchal succession system, which is too rigid and inflexible, can certainly ensure the stability of family power when the old and the new change.

But if the patriarch of the clan is too incompetent, it will inevitably lead to the decline of Hyuga.

Thus, events like Hyuga Hizashi happened.

If Hyuga Hiashi, as the head of the family, has a strength that is no less than "shadow", the high-level cannot be underestimated, and his personality is stronger, not so weak.

Who dares to persecute the Hyuga clan in Konoha?

"You're right..."

Reattached the strips.

Cover up that ugly Curse Mark: Caged Bird.

Looking at the blue sky, watching the birds soaring freely.

Hyuga Neji couldn't help feeling envious, and laughed at himself: "But this is my fate... No matter how hard I try, I'm doomed to be unable to break free!"

"Not necessarily, your Caged Bird...maybe I can untie it for you!"
