Naruto Arrows

"Brother Ningji?"

Hinata, who had only met Neji a few times when she was a child and had never seen Neji again after the death of her uncle Hizashi, looked at the boy in front of her who was obviously different from the image in her memory, with a little uncertainty in her tone. More, but still shy.

Looking at his soft cousin who couldn't help but blush even when saying hello, Neji smiled and reached out to touch her head.

"Long time no see, Hinata-chan."

The predecessor might have had mixed feelings towards Hinata due to his status as a separate family, resentment towards the clan, but he obviously didn't have such a deep obsession.

Hinata's face became more and more rosy as Neji rubbed her hair.

Although she had some doubts in her heart and didn't understand why the cousin in front of her had such a big difference from the strict and unsmiling image in her memory, but in her heart, she still liked the cousin in front of her who was very affectionate to her. elder brother.

As the eldest daughter of the head of the clan and identified as the future heir of the clan, she had to accept many rules since she was very young. When she grew up, she had to undergo very strict training. Life was already boring, because of her noble status. Everyone treated her with respect. She didn't even have a friend of the same age with whom she could talk, so she was undoubtedly lonely.

It is precisely because of this that she remembered Naruto for the first time when she was three years old and felt his kindness and warmth from the bottom of her heart until she was a teenager.

However, many Hyuga clan members on the side couldn't help but change their expressions when they saw this scene.

With the hierarchical concepts of the branch family and clan family already deeply entrenched in their hearts, in their eyes, Neji's behavior was undoubtedly extremely disrespectful and even arrogant.

Even if they are actually only five or six years old, they should be an innocent age.

On the contrary, Rizu on the side looked at this scene, with a rare smile on his usually expressionless face.

He didn't dare to expect Neji to completely let go of Hizashi's death and forgive him completely, but he really didn't want to see Neji really break with their family, or even the Hyuga clan.

Therefore, now that I see Neji's unpretentious act of intimacy, I am naturally happy.

However, when his eyes glanced at the expressions of other people aside, his original good mood disappeared.

I have a long way to go to bridge the gap between the clan family and the branch family.

On the side, Hinata Yokoyama, the elder of the branch family, looked at these guys with dissatisfaction and even dissatisfaction on their faces and couldn't help but roll his eyes with disdain.

It was precisely because of seeing the expressions of Hiashi and Yokoyama that although the group of people were dissatisfied and angry, they still resisted the idea of ​​scolding Neji directly. But deep down in their hearts, everyone had already made up their mind to wait. I must teach Neji what "rules" are next.

. . .

"Have Ding Chou and Xin You not come back yet?"

On a big tree not far from Konoha, several root ninjas wearing masks with abstract patterns were gathering together. The leader was a ninja with red stripes on his mask. He looked at the masks that swept across the crowd, The brows under the mask couldn't help but frown, and he asked in a low voice.

This is already the time for their second gathering, but Ding Chou and Xin You haven't shown up yet. The original dissatisfaction in their hearts has completely turned into vigilance.

Although it has been confirmed from various sources that Uchiha Shisui is dead, no one dares to be 100% sure before seeing the other party's body.

"Jihai, go immediately and report to Danzo-sama. Others, follow me immediately."

Not daring to be careless, he made a decision immediately.

"Yes!"

After a neat low shout, there was no one on the tree trunk that was originally full of people.

. . .

"what?!"

In the study room of the head of the Zong family, after hearing what Hengshan said, even Rizu, who had always been calm, couldn't help but stood up suddenly due to shock, and looked at Hengshan who still looked calm with a look of horror.

"Don't worry, I handled the body. Even if Danzo went there himself, he wouldn't be able to find any trace."

"call."

After hearing Hengshan's relief, Rizu couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

After his younger brother Hizashi committed suicide on his behalf, he felt that the family elders had too many constraints on him, and he was gradually seizing the power that belonged to him as the head of the family. He has only achieved small results now. If Danzo is defeated by Danzo at this time The old silver coin has found a handle, and there is no guarantee that something will not go wrong.

After all, he had already had a head-on conflict with Danzo regarding Neji's matter.

"This guy Danzo is a little too arrogant. He dares to attack the ninjas in the village directly!"

After making sure that Yokoyama had picked off the Hyuga clan, Hizashi relaxed and couldn't help but frown and discussed the matter with Yokoyama.

"Hey, who said otherwise."

Hengshan nodded when he heard this and sighed softly.

"If it weren't for the fact that our Hyuga clan has always been low-key, and the existence of the family division and clan system would have made it difficult for the village to attack, Hizashi had blocked Kumogakure's sword for the village before..."

As a seasoned veteran, he could see clearly that Danzo, known as the Darkness of Konoha, was just a target floating on the water, and the one who truly dominated all of this was Hiruzen Sarutobi who was sinking further below.

"Ha, I don't believe he would watch Danzo snatch a kaleidoscope."

Rizu obviously understood what he meant. After shaking his head slightly, he chuckled and spoke.

Although the Mangekyo Sharingan is mysterious and has not appeared for a long time, it is not a big secret for a wealthy family like Hinata that has been passed down for thousands of years.

Especially after experiencing the years when Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara suppressed the ninja world.

Therefore, Hizu's views on this matter were not consistent with Yokoyama's. He did not believe what happened this time. Sarutobi Hiruzen knew about it and even acquiesced.

Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible for Danzo to get the eyes.

"He is using Danzo, so why isn't Danzo using him?"

There was a bit of ridicule on Rizu's face.

"Then shall we..."

Hengshan leaned forward slightly, lowered his already low voice again, and asked with a touch of excitement in his eyes.

"just forget it."

After Rizu closed his eyes and thought for a moment, he still shook his head.

"This may allow them to conflict again like last time, but in this case, we are also likely to be exposed."

Looking at Hengshan who had an unwilling look on his face, Rizu persuaded him earnestly.

"He will not be grateful to us. He will only be more wary of us. Maybe, in order to test and restrict us, he will deliberately leak the news to Danzo."

Speaking of Danzo, Hizu's face showed deep disgust, but he couldn't help but have a flash of fear in his eyes.

"That's a mad dog. It's better not to let him find any clues."

"Father, father."

Just when Yokoyama nodded in frustration, agreeing with Hizu's idea, suddenly, Hinata's anxious call came from outside.
