Naruto Neji: I can see chakra!

"Okay, let's take a look together." Sarutobi Kuroishi agreed.

The other team members were enjoying a sweet sleep.

Hyuga Neji and Sarutobi Kuroishi decided not to disturb them.

The two men stood up and walked down the passage.

After waiting for half a minute, the captain of the first brigade of the Guishui Brigade, whose real name was Mitomon Hatanlang, who was staring at an ant on the ground in a daze, suddenly moved his ears and heard faint footsteps coming from the passage.

Pat pat pat——

"Two people? The sound of two people's footsteps——" Mitomon Hatanlang's ears twitched.

Then a hearty laugh was heard.

"Hahahaha-"

"Oh? It's Captain Guishui! What brings you here? Is there any task you want to arrange? How could you, the Captain, come here in person to inform us?"

Only two meters away from the door, Sarutobi Kuroishi saw the iconic ANBU mask of Guishui, the captain of the first ANBU battalion: a white background with purple wavy patterns on it.

Generally, the ninja masks in the Anbu are unique.

In other words, as long as there is one person who is using this mask and a certain pattern, then until this Anbu dies, the mask with this pattern will not be used by anyone else in the entire Konoha Village Anbu.

The Guishui Jonin can be regarded as one of the highest positions in the current Anbu: the captain of the first battalion.

Although he is not in charge of the brigade that Hyuga Neji and his companions belong to, he still has some authority over it.

Because during the years when the Anbu Minister and Deputy Minister were absent, the captain of the Anbu First Battalion was the best-equipped and the most powerful, so the title of No. 1 was not given casually, and to some extent he performed some of the duties of the Security Minister.

Mitomon Hatanrou took off the mask on his face, revealing the face of an ordinary middle-aged man.

Although he still has a head full of black hair, his eyes are full of the vicissitudes of life that come from having experienced a lot.

He just smiled friendly and said, "Sashibuli, long time no see, brother Black Stone!"

Sarutobi Kuroishi also smiled kindly and took off the mask on his face.

Hyuga Neji also did the same thing.

Mitomon Hatanrou's eyes lit up.

It’s not that I haven’t seen pictures of Hyuga Neji, but there is still a big difference between a camera and a real person.

Real people have a kind of temperament that may seem inconspicuous at first, but if you look at them for a second, you will find them mysterious.

"To be honest, I'm not here to look for you, my brother Kuroishi. Coincidentally, I'm here to look for the kid next to you! I'm looking for the young hero of our Konoha Village - Neji-kun!"

"Oh?" Hyuga Neji was a little surprised. Why would he look for him?

I searched through it in my mind and thought about it, and it was true that I had no connection with the captain of the first brigade of the Anbu.

Later he changed his mind and thought, since there is no position of minister or deputy minister in the Anbu of Konoha Village at present, the captain of the first brigade, who is ranked first in the sequence, that is, the Guishui Jonin in front of him, is naturally half a level higher in position than his other colleagues.

I haven't heard of any mutual attacks or disagreements among colleagues.

Finding something to do is also ruled out.

Therefore, the captain of the first brigade, the present Master Guishui, might have played the role of the head of the Anbu for a short period of time.

Then, of course, his own ninja files would also be kept by him.

I guess he saw my outstanding performance in various tasks, so he wanted to contact me and improve our relationship?

The Guishui jonin did not keep the secret, and his next words confirmed Hyuga Neji's guess.

"Ningji-kun, the young hero, completed his first small D-rank mission perfectly. I seemed to see the former Fourth Hokage returning to the village to perform tasks in the Anbu!!!"

He threw compliments everywhere without paying for them, and when Mitomon Badanlang Guishui Jonin felt that the relationship had become close, he told them the main purpose of his trip.

"In fact, after the Fifth Hokage Tsunade took office, when he was looking through the personnel files of our Konoha Village, he found your outstanding resume and outstanding performance in the Anbu files of Konoha Village! So he sent someone to invite you to the Hokage office building for a chat. I happened to have nothing to do at the moment, so I just came to invite our young hero to go over and make friends with him!"

After all, he is a ninja, not a politician - not a full-time politician, so his speech is not so roundabout that people can't understand him.

As long as he didn't keep silent on purpose, it was easy to understand what Mitomon Hatanrou meant: he wanted to take advantage of the fact that Hyuga Neji hasn't yet fully grasped greater power and make a bet in advance to make friends with him.

——It can’t be called support, but it can be considered as making friends.

Hyuga Neji also felt instantly refreshed, and displayed to the fullest the noble upbringing he inherited from the Hyuga clan. After the few of them exchanged greetings, it seemed as if they were not meeting for the first time but were good friends who had known each other for a long time.

While he was talking nonsense about all sorts of things, he was secretly amazed.

Afterwards, Mitomon Hatanrou inexplicably felt that there was a completely different aura emanating from Hyuga Neji.

That is confidence!

It's strange to say, a 13-year-old boy has the same calm and confident temperament no matter he is talking with the captain of the Anbu Brigade or chatting with his parents and teammates.

Although it is not displayed outwardly, everyone can still sense this temperament.

Mitomon Hatanrou's smile became even happier.

In the world of ninja, confidence often represents strength.

Just like Orochimaru and Minato Namikaze in the past, they would remain calm and composed with the demeanor of a general when facing any opponent, even teachers or classmates.

What they rely on is the powerful personal strength they have in their hands.

Because self-confidence brings absolute security, there will be no subconscious defense or sense of embarrassment.

"Let's go together?" Mitomon Hatanrou invited Sarutobi Kuroishi to go with them to meet the Hokage.

But Sarutobi Kuroishi declined.

He also had to stay on standby in the base with his two other subordinates to ensure that today's duty mission was completed smoothly.

Although today is the day for the Night Owl Team to rest and recuperate, there are still people who need to be on standby to respond.

Since there was nothing particularly important, they just gave Hyuga Neji a short vacation and asked him to go with the Guishui Jonin Mitomon Hatanro to report to the Fifth Hokage first.
