The moon is not round.

Neji raised his head, but it was not as good as Bai.

At least not as white as it had appeared in the tent.

Suddenly, the world became blurry, and all the strength in my body was like a drop of water under a blazing flame.

evaporation.

dissipate.

No trace left.

The temperature burned in the body, and the night breeze was chilling to the bone.

Is the wind so cool at night?

Neji seemed to know the answer, but at this moment, he didn't know it anymore.

He fell backwards, and the scenes of what the man in black had said and done before turned into a movie, replaying meaninglessly before his eyes.

The body is filled with lead and the limbs are no longer under the control of the owner.

He fell straight down like this, but he couldn't continue thinking about what would happen after he fell down.

When the boy came to his senses, he was already in Tobirama's arms.

Tobirama was not wearing the blue armor, but a casual dress.

This shouldn't be a cold day.

Neji thought.

Tobirama was wearing very thin clothes, only a single piece of clothing, and it seemed as if he and I, who were wearing an outer coat, did not belong to the same season.

The man's skin was shiny, and Neji felt cool just from touching it.

"Tobirama..."

"Tobirama-sama!"

Neji's voice was weak and was completely drowned out by the powerful voice of a young man that came afterwards.

But Tobirama heard it.

He put his face close to Neji's ear and muffled his answer through his nose.

"Um..."

"I'm here."

People should walk on the ground.

I heard Tobirama's reply, but a figure flew past me.

Rather than being clear about the final chapter of the net, I feel more exhausted.

The boy, about sixteen or seventeen years old, was wearing a ninja costume, and the metal forehead guard on his forehead just reflected the moonlight.

Which village is it from?

Neji couldn't see clearly.

The pockmarks on the boy's face were clearly visible.

He was like a bird, spreading its wings and flying across the night sky.

Behind the young man were two people who were all too familiar to him.

Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo.

They turned into the night wind, galloping in the air, calling the men beside them.

"Tobirama-sama!"

"Tobirama-sama!"

The identity of the freckled boy was also revealed during the shouting.

Although he looks like a rookie, he has already embarked on the road to the battlefield.

No, he's already there.

To Neji, this was a boy he had never met before.

Unlike the false feelings during the "first meeting" like Tobirama and Hashirama, when facing the person in front of you, your feelings should be real.

If not today, the boy will die on this battlefield in the near future.

The moonlight obscured the boy's forehead protector, and even if Neji squinted his eyes, he still couldn't see clearly.

"Host, who is this guy?"

After careful calculations, System 001 concluded that it should ask questions at this time.

And that's exactly what he did.

It’s a pity that the host, the only person in the world who can hear the system, chose to ignore it.

He suddenly felt very tired, which was something he should have noticed a long time ago.

Hyuga Neji's life was forever frozen at the age of sixteen.

The boy in front of him was only about sixteen or seventeen years old.

they are the same.

For some reason I am standing here, and for some reason I can no longer "go home".

I don't know when the clouds floated over, and the time around seemed to stop at this moment.

There was a hole in the sky.

Neji thought so, but found that it was just clouds moving over and covering the moon.

The moon does not emit light and it also blocks light.

He could feel that Tobirama, who was supporting him, was hesitating about something.

How to settle him.

After all, it is not something a Hokage can do to track down the murderer behind the scenes with a feverish burden.

If it were Neji himself, he would not make the same choice.

He didn't want to go, and even breathing became labored under the overwhelming exhaustion.

Even taking a step forward requires all of your strength.

"Excuse me."

Neji still stood up from Tobirama's arms, stared at the other party's astonished eyes, and made a request in a voice as thin as a mosquito.

"You need to take me with you."

Neji always felt like he had things to do.

After all, it is not easy for the four people present, including Danzo and Hiruzen, to catch their breath.

Hinata said with controlled chakra.

Spin, emit, cover...

Although he does not have as terrifying chakra as Uzumaki Naruto, just a thin layer covering the four people is enough to isolate the virus from the body.

He was very careful, and the chakra was very little, so it was not easy for Danzo Shimura and Hiruzen Sarutobi, who did not have Byakugan, to discover him.

Especially now Danzo Shimura and Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Whether it is ninjutsu or taijutsu, it is always changing with each passing day.

Apart from heroes across the ages like Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama, the rest of the powerful ones have a shelf life - even Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama, in the future before Neji arrives, will only become the "best".

Neji was definitely not in a state to give chase.

Neji wasn't the only one who was present.

Tobirama's hesitation was inevitable.

Just a few minutes ago, he had just reflected on his behavior.

Around: "This is all his fault, it's all his fault."

In just a few dozen minutes, the "Tobirama Guilt Theory" which would not be known to the world later was completed.

But now, the theory that Tobirama is guilty will stop with Tobirama.

Not the Second Hokage.

He knew what Neji was doing and what he was going to do next.

The control range of chakra is limited, and Tobirama can understand it just by observing Neji's reaction.

Now it can be roughly divided into two situations.

It’s not that Neji is temporarily unable to use the Byakugan, but even if he opens the Byakugan he is unable to achieve long-distance control.

Just looking at his personal preference, he would rather the latter.

.......

"Host, do you want to be lazy?"

001 said meanly: "It's obvious that you don't want to leave and want Tobirama to carry you on his back."

Excuse me, if I had known that Tobirama's "carry" meant the posture of holding a child like this, Neji would have crawled instead of asking for it.

He is indeed not as tall as Tobirama.

There are probably not many people in the entire ninja world who are of similar level to Tobirama.

The Senju family always has many strong men. In comparison, the members of the Hyuga family are slim and slender.

"To call this a betrayal is really unfair to you."

001 intuitively felt that he had said something other than "back", and his once-in-a-millennium host would die in front of him in the next second.

The boy was held by Tobirama with one hand, and those hands just happened to hold Neji's legs.

Generally speaking, the other hand can be placed aside as a ready arm to attack.

But Tobirama was afraid that he would fall.

The arm was like a seat belt, crossing over Neji's shoulders and holding him firmly in place.

The gazes of Danzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen were like daggers and like boiling water.

Sticking to Neji all the time.

Ninjas are such amazing creatures. Even when they are moving at high speed, even when they are chasing a target, when there is something they must see.

He would look at it without hesitation.

Don’t get me wrong, this is not a lack of focus.

But after the ninja's attention is distracted, the remaining part is completely sufficient most of the time.

The peace of mind that comes from a cloth strip and mask on your face is unmatched.

The dizziness in the head and the aching limbs became bearable with the help of the shelter and the evening breeze - so what if they were unbearable?

He has not died yet, and with Tobirama's help, everything has become unusually smooth - the biggest obstacle last time has now turned into a reliable helper.

It tastes really good.

Besides...

"Danzo, Monkey, focus!"

Tobirama spoke.

He is usually considerate, Neji thought.

The two of them could only sneer and look away, their eyes still filled with the determined gaze of Tobirama-sama.

As expected of Master Tobirama...

The rare tacit understanding between the partners happened in such an unexpected night.

It was clearly a chase battle with a crucial move, but the atmosphere was eerily peaceful.

It seemed as if the young man was already in his grasp - if only that were true.

"Danzo, report the current known information."

Tobirama said seriously, his hands protecting the person in his arms more seriously than his eyes.

As the Hokage, there is no way he would make the same mistake a second time.

No matter if it caused harm to others or allowed unknown persons to take advantage of the situation - he would definitely catch the man in black and bring him to justice.

"We found it at the edge of the bamboo forest..."

Danzo had only said half of his words when the terrain beneath his feet seemed like the surface of water with wind blowing.

Swaying and shaking, the soil and plants have lost their original "stable" property. In the next second, huge waves will be set off, sweeping everything on the land into the turbulent waves.
