The person who came was Yin Zhu.

Feeling the undisguised murderous intent in the young man's words, Sarutobi Hiruzen's pupils trembled slightly, but his face turned gloomy the next second.

He was in office for nearly fifty years, and during that time no one had ever spoken to him in such a bad manner.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's face darkened, and his eyes immediately looked at Yinzhu's forehead, but he did not find the forehead protector, and his eyes immediately swept over him quickly.

When she saw the black "?" mark embroidered on his white sleeve, her pupils shrank slightly and she shouted sternly.

"Who are you? How dare you take action in Konoha!"

"Otogakure, you are their leader, right? Why is Neji in your Otogakure!?"

Yin Zhu's eyes darkened slightly, and a simple double-edged sword suddenly appeared in his hand. He cursed coldly. "Shameless old thing! You attacked my people first, didn't you? You were submissive in front of Kumogakure, but you attacked our Yinnin heavily? You used the ninjas of your own village to eliminate the disaster, and now you want to kill the scapegoat's son! Don't be so shameless! If you dare to attack, stop talking nonsense!"

As he spoke, Yin Zhu also became angry.

Sarutobi Hiruzen obviously recognized Neji, but he was ruthless and merciless, using his status as the Hokage to personally deal with a younger boy. Killing Hizashi's son without any guilt was enough for Ototake to see how evil this person was.

"You!" Sarutobi Hiruzen's face suddenly surged with anger. Although he didn't understand what the other party said, he still felt it was dirty. Just as he was about to say something, his expression changed slightly.

boom--

An extremely cold chakra aura suddenly burst out from Yin Zhu.

His eyes were cold, and he seemed to casually glance at the surrounding stands. A slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said leisurely, "If you want to fight... I can accompany you, but unfortunately... there are too many people here, and it seems that if I am not careful, I will hurt innocent people..."

"This breath..." Sarutobi Hiruzen gritted his teeth and stared at Yinzhu, as if he wanted to eat him alive, but the rage in his heart slowly calmed down.

The people sitting in the stands around were either rich or noble, and even the Daimyo of the Five Great Nations were among them. Once they started fighting with the powerful leader of the Sound Village, the battle between ninjas of their strength would affect too many people.

Once the daimyo of the five major countries died here, even if Sarutobi Hiruzen won, Konoha would be completely defeated!

"We must not do it here!" Sarutobi Hiruzen felt a chill in his heart and veins popped up on his face, but he just couldn't utter a word.

"Hmph!" Yin Zhu snorted disdainfully and turned away.

Behind him, Neji stood there with a distraught look on his face.

He walked over, put his hand on the boy's shoulder, and said softly, "Ningji."

"......" Ningci was shocked and turned his head woodenly, but he didn't dare to look at Yinzhu, "I'm sorry... Lord Yinzhu... If I hadn't lost control just now, you wouldn't..."

Yin Zhu patted his shoulder and comforted him, "Don't apologize. If you can easily suppress emotions like hatred, then what's the difference between you and Dou?"

"..."

In the face of the boy's silence, Yinzhu just smiled and turned his gaze to Hinata.

Suddenly.

shhhhh--

Three figures fell behind Hinata, but did not dare to get too close. Red held a kunai, looked at Yinzhu with a vigilant face, and shouted coldly, "You guy, don't hurt Hinata!"

Yin Zhu glanced at the wavy girl indifferently, and didn't even bother to pay attention to her. Apart from her appearance, there was nothing about this woman that he liked.

Then he looked at the white afro with a mask in the middle, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

"Kakashi, long time no see."

"..."

Kakashi's face twitched, and he remained silent. Seeing Kakashi's tense body, as if he was facing a great enemy, Asuma beside him also became nervous unconsciously.

At this time, Yin Zhu spoke softly, "Ningji, continue to finish your game. I'll stand here and no one dares to disturb you." His voice was calm, but sharp, causing Kakashi and others on the opposite side to change their expressions suddenly, but they dared not speak out.

Only Hong shouted anxiously, "Hinata, give up!"

Hearing this, Neji's gaze slowly moved and fell on Hinata in front of him again.

The girl was like a wooden stake, just staring at him blankly.

After a moment's silence, Neji stepped forward, murderous intent reappearing on his face.

Hinata's eyes were filled with tears again, and tears flowed down her eyes. She looked at Neji, but there was no fear in her eyes, and she cried, "Brother Neji, if my death can make you feel better, please kill me!"

Hinata raised her chin, revealing her smooth, white neck, with a sad look on her face.

Ningci was shocked, but a fierce look appeared on his face, "Do you think I dare not?"

Hinata was frightened and trembled all over. Her little face turned pale and she couldn't help but sobbing softly, "Father, father didn't want to, but he couldn't do anything... Over the years, father also regretted it very much. He often stared at the spirit tablet of Uncle Hizashi... and the room where you lived when you were a child..."

"enough!!!"

Ningci suddenly shouted, a ferocious look on his face, and suddenly raised his hand and slapped Hinata on the head. "You want to die, then I'll grant your wish!"

The girl closed her eyes, a relieved smile appearing on her face.

"Hinata!"

Hong was startled and was about to jump to save him, but was stopped. She turned around anxiously, only to see Kakashi shaking his head slightly at her.

Hong was a little confused, and the next moment, she seemed to sense something. She turned around suddenly and found that the boy's palm suddenly stopped just an inch above Hinata's head.

The murderous intent on the white-clothed young man's face suddenly receded like the tide.

He stared at the dirty, young face in front of him quietly, with a complex look in his eyes. He stretched out his hand, and finally couldn't help but gently fell down and rubbed the girl's head.

"You are very good, but you are definitely not a qualified head of a family." Neji spoke slowly, his voice neither sad nor happy, "A truly qualified head of a family should be like your father, always putting the family first in everything..."

He actually understood that the fault for his father Hizashi's death was not that of Hiashi, nor that of Hinata.

"It's this family that's wrong..."

He smiled coldly, turned around expressionlessly, nodded to Yin Zhu, and walked towards Kimimaro and the others in the rest area.

One day, he will release all the caged birds in Hyuga with his own hands!

"Brother Neji!"

Ningji paused when he suddenly heard a girl's soft call from behind.

"Brother Neji, please come back!" Hinata looked at his back and pleaded in a sad voice.

After a moment of silence, Ningci smiled in surprise, then left without looking back.

Only a sigh was left, echoing faintly in the air above the stands.

"I can't go back, sister..."
