Naruto Neji: I can see chakra!

Hyuga Neji had no idea that his casual words had exposed his true identity.

This is the leader of the Konoha Village Intelligence Squad, Yamanaka Inoichi, who is good at interrogating and obtaining all kinds of information.

"Oh hahaha, do you think I'm cute too? It seems that what dad always says is right, I am still very cute after all, hehe."

Yamanaka Ino held her two little cheeks in her hands shyly and intoxicatedly, twisting and swaying. She was intoxicated by the cuteness and couldn't extricate herself.

Shan Zhong Hai held his forehead and smiled bitterly.

Neji Hyuga also stepped forward and looked at the 12 young members of Konoha who had just emerged from the oven.

Oh, no, now it should be the 11 Little Warriors of Konoha, because I am no longer one of them.

You will be the strongest.

Well, as expected, I can’t see anything. They are all ordinary kids with almost zero chakra in their bodies.

Chakra is indeed the most magical energy.

In fact, the larger the ninja clan is, the less likely they are to rush for quick results and let the children in the clan practice chakra refining and ninja training early.

Because chakra is the life energy extracted from 130 trillion cells in the body, you must first have this life force before you can extract it.

It is easy to tell that this life energy must contain something similar to the cell vitality in the body. So the amount that a child can extract is obviously not comparable to the amount that a fully grown adult can extract.

Therefore, the younger the child, the more he should be allowed to grow stronger. Usually, when he is four or five years old, it is almost time. We may try to let the children of these noble families start to refine chakra.

For example, Hyuga Neji, who is four years old this year, just started refining chakra yesterday.

"Good afternoon, all clan leaders, uncles and aunts! My father and I have been ordered by Uncle Rizu to invite everyone to enter the living room and have a banquet together."

Looking at Hyuga Neji, who was young but slender and had an outstanding temperament, the clan leaders nodded secretly. They admired the successor of the Hyuga clan branch.

Gift?

Of course, they don’t need to bring any gifts. Just the presence of people is the greatest gift.

They are all powerful families in Konoha Village. Although their sizes vary, there is no conflict of interest and their relations have been very harmonious since the establishment of the village.

The main reason for coming here this time was to take advantage of the birthday party held by the eldest daughter of the clan, the daughter of Hyuga Hiashi. The clan leaders took time out of their busy schedules to have a pleasant private conversation and to reach a tacit understanding among the clans on the distribution of benefits for the relevant villages in the coming year.

This way, the Hokage will not be at a loss as to what to do, which would lead to a situation that would harm the interests of both parties.

Another purpose is to allow the younger generations of each other to have friendly exchanges and get to know each other better.

I was too young before and couldn’t remember people at all.

After all, the Ninja School would start in two years. They would definitely be in the same class or one class apart, and they would definitely be assigned to the first class of their respective grades.

Hyuga Hiashi and today's protagonist Hyuga Hinata warmly welcomed all the clan leaders and the next generation of heirs in the clan's living room.

After throwing a few more children aside, several clan leaders and Hyuga Hizashi went to the study for a secret talk.

As for the official celebration scene, on the other side of the main family residence, it was an exclusive banquet for the majority of Hyuga clan members and some relatives and friends.

Hyuga Neji did not do anything to steal the show, and the team leaders were also very sensible and stopped at the right time. After they had a tacit understanding with each other, they chatted for half an hour after lunch, and then said goodbye without any prior arrangement and returned to their respective families.

After all, the original plan was not to come, but to send only their own clansmen and elders, but who knew that the leader of the Iwagakure Village society would do such a weird thing.

As a result, some of the original welcome ceremony and communication processes were cut short, and everyone left on bad terms.

Since I have nothing to do anyway, I came over to say to Hinata and Rizu: You see, we came here as soon as we got the chance, we are very good friends, it's not that I don't take this matter that you are taking seriously.

Well, anyway, the meaning is conveyed.

After all, everyone is now under the control of Konoha Village.

However, if the powerful families who control their respective armed forces gather together for a long time, it will cause misunderstandings among the real people in power in the Hokage Building.

A few years ago, the Uchiha clan was pushed out of the power center, and after the Nine-Tails Night, a civil war almost broke out. The aftermath still makes the major families feel uneasy.

The strongest clan that founded the village was humiliatingly squeezed out of the center of power.

Gradually disappeared from people's sight.

They don't even distribute tasks, they just waste time like this.

Life and death are uncertain.

The Sandaime Hokage is fine, but the main concern is the man standing behind him. I heard that he is very dissatisfied with the fact that the major powerful families have occupied a share of the interests in Konoha, both in terms of economy and power.

He always wanted to tear it off from them from time to time and put it into the root of his life.

Anyway, in order to reduce his troubles and deal with him, each tribe also sent a number of talented tribesmen to join the Root.

However, after these tribesmen joined, there has been no news of any of them returning.

No one knows whether he is alive or dead. As ninjas, everyone knows it and there is no need to ask for specific information.

The Root is the Anbu of the Anbu, the most secretive and darkest existence in Konoha. All the great and glorious clan leaders are unwilling to get involved in the darkness of Konoha, because the last time they got involved, the aftermath was that the Uchiha clan was excluded, and now they have no sense of existence.

Without missions, the ninjas won't get any training. How many generations can they last?

Underground on the edge of Konoha Village, at the Root headquarters.

Shimura Danzo silently listened to the report from his ninjas, and couldn't help but look regretful, and snorted: "Alas, these stupid guys are so cowardly!"

"I thought we could unite. Discuss something, like a conspiracy to overthrow the Hokage's power! This way we can catch them all in one fell swoop and take over all their occult business!"

"This way my Root can swallow them all up and become the strongest in the entire village. It won't be impossible for me to become Hokage directly then!"

Danzo Shimura was still thinking about whether he could take advantage of the signs of the Hyuga clan and the Konoha clans joining forces to launch an attack on them.

However, I didn't expect that the patriarchs of these Konoha clans were all very shrewd and did things just right so as not to give others any excuses.

It not only expressed respect for the Hyuga clan, but also took into account the face of the Hokage.

As expected, there is Nara Shikaku, the patriarch of the Nara clan, who is worthy of being the brain of Konoha.

"Since we don't have any evidence, let's forget about it and start plan B!"

"Follow the established route and start executing when night falls." Captain Shimura gave calm instructions to the ninjas around him.

Then he knelt on one knee and nodded to the Root Ninja. To show that he had received the order, he stood up and bowed, then retreated and disappeared into the darkness.

During the day, in the Hyuga clan territory, there had not been such a lively banquet for a long time. In addition, most of the guests present were members of the Hyuga clan, including a few members of the main family and most of the Hyuga branch families and their relatives and friends. So everyone was happily eating, drinking, dancing and playing, completely relaxed physically and mentally.

It was not until night fell that everyone said goodbye to each other reluctantly.

Today is destined to be one of the few wonderful days worth remembering this year. After a good night's sleep, I will get up tomorrow and continue to work as a social cow and horse.

As night fell and everyone left, the entire Hyuga clan fell into silence.

But outside the Hyuga clan's territory, many places in Konoha Village began to become lively.
