【Naruto】Hyuga Neji’s Beautiful Life

Chapter 41 If you just walk on the road

On this day, the genius was bright.

Incense sticks burned slowly in the incense burner, and wisps of white smoke floated from the top of the hollowed-out family crest. The door on one side of the room was open, facing the atrium. There is a pine tree in the atrium, which seems to speak of the upright beliefs of this family.

The only sounds in the air were the "pop-pop" sound of the shogi being dropped and being struck on the chessboard, and the intermittent conversations between Elder Seiichi and the Hizu clan leader.

"Today is Hinata's graduation day, right?"

"..."

"As a father, don't you go and take a look?"

"...The things you told me before have not been completed yet, and Hanabi still has training."

"I heard that Kakashi Hatake defeated that copy ninja?"

Elder Seiichi is full of kindness. He is wearing a white robe with gold-plated decorative patterns on the cuffs, including auspicious dragons and auspicious animals. Opposite him, Rizu is extremely simple, only wearing a green shirt and a washcloth. His coat was slightly faded, and his face looked tired, much older than before. The topic changed suddenly, but Rizu immediately knew what he was talking about.

"Ah, there are still many members of the branch family watching the battle."

"To say he is a genius that only happens once in a thousand years is to underestimate him."

Elder Chengyi lowered his head with a smile on his face.

"It is quite inappropriate to say that he is the reincarnation of Hyuga Tennin."

The elder continued, then picked up the still warm tea cup on his left hand and took a sip of tea. He frowned slightly, swallowed the tea, and in the next second poured the entire bowl of tea over the head of the girl who was waiting next to him.

Before Elder Chengyi could speak, the girl was dragged away by two secret soldiers who appeared in a flash. The girl was so scared that she couldn't even cry. She seemed to have only the strength left to freeze. She didn't beg for mercy, she didn't apologize, and there was no room for struggle.

Rizu watched the girl being taken away, and just clenched the chess piece in his hand.

"Neji is indeed a rare genius in the Hyuga clan, but he is far from the level his father said he was."

"This class of juniors is the best in terms of talent. Both Yuan and Hanabi are the best among their peers."

"Yes," Elder Seiichi paused and glanced at Hinata's room with disdain, but immediately returned to being kind and kind. "It would be great if Neji was a child of the clan." After that, he stood up and showed off his talent. shape.

"It's a pity, it's a pity..."

The elder lowered his head, pressed his chest with one hand, and sighed twice.

"However, a branch family can't stir up any trouble." Elder Chengyi chuckled. "The game is over, Hizu." He played with the eaten king general in his hand and put it on the table with a "pop" sound. Use two fingers to push towards the foot. Hehe smiled and walked away with his hands behind his back.

When he came to the door, he didn't forget to look back at Rizu, who was still kneeling in the same place, and said kindly: "Don't forget to come to the dinner tonight. It's good for you to take care of the clan's affairs seriously, but you should also pay attention to relax."

"Yes, thank you father for your concern!"

Rizu looked up in embarrassment, but only saw the back of Elder Chengyi and the closed door. Through the paper on the partition, one can vaguely see that the figure of Elder Chengyi is getting smaller and smaller, becoming more and more blurry, until it is completely invisible.

Only then did Rizu slam his fist on the chessboard as if to vent his anger. The solid wood chessboard shattered with Rizu's fist as the starting point, and the chess pieces were also doomed, being shaken to all corners of the room by the aftermath. Only one chess piece slid back to Rizu's hand after hitting the wall. He turned to look at the chess piece, narrowed his eyes, and put the chess piece into his arms.

"General Wang..."

Successfully graduating from the ninja school means that children can wear forehead protectors and become genin. Only then do they truly become ninjas. This is also the first step on their journey to ninja.

There was a lot of noise outside the Ninja School. The scorching sun mixed with the noise, making it very lively. People in the Ninja Village naturally value ninjas and are proud to be ninjas. On this important day, almost all adults will be present with their children. They will go to the information session with their graduation certificates, take photos with their teachers, and say goodbye. The child will proudly show off his forehead protector to his elders, and the elders will shed tears of pride, and then watch the child laughing and playing with their friends without forgetting to grin at him.

On such a day, it seems that the only colors are full of vitality, full of hope and longing for a better future.

But it seems that's not necessarily the case. Almost will always be almost. The colors beside them were all covered by the light and huddled in the shadows.

It was rare for Neji to wander aimlessly on the street. Today is the anniversary of his father's death. In previous years, he would have been practicing Rouquan or studying fortune telling at the training ground. But today it was strange, just wandering among the streets.

The bad premonition grew stronger in Neji's heart, and he could see the death of his neighbor with just a casual glance. Neji had not seen such a strong death sign for a long time, and it was very likely that it would happen to his neighbors even in the past two years.

What's even more weird is that after watching several people in a row, their dead faces seem to be continuous in a narrative, like close-ups of each character in a picture.

In order to confirm his suspicion, Neji came to the street and looked at almost everyone he met with his eyes. The distribution of death signs is very concentrated, most of them are ninjas, and there are even many jounin! This indeed confirmed Neji's guess. In a few years, there will be a man-made crisis coming to Konoha, and the opponent is powerful and has a lot of resentment towards Konoha. The severity of this attack made it difficult to deny that the other party was aiming to defeat Konoha. But judging from the number of survivors, it was obviously a failure.

"Defeat Konoha..."

Of course Neji didn't want his neighbors and colleagues living in the same village to die, but he now, or even two years later, didn't have the ability to turn the tables in one fell swoop. but......

"Hinata family..."

The sense of betrayal and powerlessness lingered in Neji's heart, making him breathless.

Sometimes there is such a big difference between what can't be done and what can be done. On the one hand, it is absolutely impossible, on the other hand, it is easy to do.

It would be great if I could keep walking on the road like this.

The thought of escaping dominated Neji for the first time.

He just wandered along with the crowd, and when he came to his senses again, he was already in the middle of a noisy crowd. This scene was all too familiar to him. A year ago, he walked out of this place, leaving the noise as a covered color.

The crowd had lost its vitality and was gradually dissipating. Neji came to his senses in a daze. Miss Hinata had already left with the maid Hyuga Natsu. The open space in front of the school only left shadows and colors revealed after the light dissipated.

The boy sitting astride the swing under the shade of the tree looked somewhat similar to his previous self, but mostly different. He was dejected and looked at the school from time to time, as if he was expecting something.

When you are confused, you may become nosy.

Neji thought mockingly to himself, but still walked towards the boy on the swing.

"Hey, what's your name?"

The boy in white looked down at the boy.

"Uzumaki...Naruto." The boy looked at Neji blankly, as if he didn't know what he was here for.

This man looked older than him, with his arms folded coolly, and even his stinky face was similar to that of Sasuke. Naruto's eyes moved upward and saw the forehead protector on the young man's forehead.

"Anyway, you are here to laugh at me."

"Without my family coming to my graduation ceremony, I couldn't even pass my graduation exam..."

"You also want to say that people like me are not worthy of becoming ninjas!"

The boy had a unique accent at the end of his sentence, and he expressed it with excitement, which looked a little funny.

Neji narrowed his eyes and looked at him before answering his words.

"So what?"

"Then I will become a ninja and Hokage, so that you people will look at me with admiration!"

Naruto suppressed his blush.

"I will definitely become a ninja and become Hokage!"

The boy had tears and nose running down his face. He looked so slovenly. Before Neji could reply, Naruto ran away.

"Yes...so what..."

The person I most wanted to convey this sentence to was none other than Neji himself.

"Thank you for now, Uzumaki...Naruto."

The man who existed in the form of his death.

The moonlight arrived as promised, and confusion made way for the full moon like clouds.
