Hokage: I will never go offline

"how?"

Jiraiya's eyes were full of anticipation.

Ning Ci broke out in a cold sweat.

As far as Zilaiye's attitude is concerned, how can this be Master's attitude?
Hearing this, Neji was convinced that Jilai also wanted to accept him as a disciple. If he didn't listen to Zilai, he would say nothing. Looking at his appearance, Neji thought it was the legendary Sannin who wanted to take him as his teacher!
Seeing that Ning Ci was not as active as he imagined, he was a little embarrassed instead.

Zilai also panicked immediately, and he explained: "Oh, actually, I have no other intentions, it seems that your seedling is very good."

"You know... I am the gold medal mentor of Muye Village! How many people want to worship me as a teacher? But I decided many years ago not to accept disciples, so..."

"What about Naruto?"

Ning Ci shrugged, Zilai is definitely not his type, although he has a good reputation, but it is too late to teach the current self the truth.

And Jiraiya must also protect Naruto, and the most important thing is that Neji does not lack teachers and the like.

"Uh……"

Jilai also narrowed his eyes, caught in a dilemma.

This matter is a bit difficult to explain, although he must protect his son for his apprentice, but Zirai has also seen Neji's battles several times, and the shock is not small.

How could Ji Lai Ye be willing to give up this kind of rare talent that is rare in a hundred years?
"Boy, are you not short-tempered?"

Seeing the servile attitude is not flattering, Jiraiya seems to have changed tactics.

"Just tell me, the legendary Sannin is right in front of you! You really don't want to learn some powerful ninjutsu?"

Ning Ci was a little indifferent, and even wanted to laugh.

If it wasn't for respecting the elders, Neji would have said the words that floated in his heart.

"Not long ago, I faced three legendary Sannin at the same time, and I had a good time in front of them!"

"Ugh!"

Ji Lai also covered his face and sighed, a little helpless.

This kid Ning Ci is indeed unusual, not only is he super strong, but his personality is also mature beyond his age.

I saw Ning Ci spread his hands and said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Ziraiya, as for me, I'm better at learning without a teacher."

After all, he smiled "hee hee" at Zilai.

Ji Lai also frowned slightly, speechless.

This "Teacher Zilaiye" also made him feel a little bitter.

"I'm not old yet, alas...you make me feel that I'm old..."

Ning Ci was sweating profusely: "Mr. Ziraiya, please don't make a show of bitterness. I am also a special Jōnin from the intelligence department, and I know very well what Uzumaki Naruto means to you."

"Instead of wasting time on me, it's better to collect more information-especially information about that organization."

As Ning Ci said, he took several steps back, looking as if he wanted to continue practicing and didn't plan to chat with Jilai.

Ji Lai was also startled: "You? Oh, that's right."

He realized it later, slapped his forehead, and murmured: "I heard that last time Kakashi and Asma were injured by Uchiha Itachi, you saved them? How can you be on par with that Uchiha Itachi?" , It’s really scary for young people.”

Ning Ci smiled awkwardly, and explained: "Where, that Uchiha Itachi didn't use all his strength, even that weirdo Kirigakure didn't fight us seriously."

"Um……"

Jiraiya suddenly squatted down, and finally looked up at Neji who was standing there.

"Boy, let me ask you, in your opinion, what is the purpose of that organization?"

Ning Ci was startled and fell silent.

The Akatsuki organization is just a group of ordinary ninjas who pursue peace on the surface, but in fact they are all ordinary ninjas with their own thoughts and persistence.

What's really scary are those ninjas who are manipulating this game of chess behind the scenes.

And these are the truths that Jiraiya, who only searched for superficial actions, failed to find out until the end.

"Perhaps...they just want to satisfy their own vanity and think it's cool to gather together?"

Ning Ci said.

Jiraiya frowned slightly, and after several seconds of frozen expression, he finally bowed his head.

He sighed heavily, and said: "Ah, I really am, I would actually want to get some hint from you..."

He stood up and walked back.

Before leaving, Jilai also left a word.

"Oh, by the way, Neji, I almost forgot to talk about business. After dinner, go to the Hokage Council Hall. The high-level officials have something to ask for you."

Ning Ci looked at Jiraiya's eyes, suddenly a little serious.

He had a vague premonition in his heart.

……

Hokage Building, Council Hall.

The two advisors, Mitomon Yan and Zhuanju Koharu, sat at the top.

And Neji is the most important one standing in the council hall, surrounded by several Anbu ninjas, all wearing masks, whose identities are unknown.

"The incident this time is really too serious! Although you did get back some information, your team only has one Chunin and two Genin!"

Kadoyan stood in a daze, looked at the mission report and accused Neji.

Zhuanzhu Xiaochun also slapped the table and said, "It's really irresponsible! As the team leader of the intelligence department, don't you even have the most basic combat attempt?"

Ning Ci was speechless, but it was not without quibbles.

It's just that he feels that for this Muye Village, explaining to these two people doesn't actually mean much.

They have never been exposed to the chaotic world outside, and only deal with internal affairs. It is normal for them to have deviations in their knowledge.

At this time, the door was pushed open by someone, and there was a plump but pretty woman.

After redressing, Tsunade looks like a 50-year-old woman?It's like a young lady in her twenties.

"Ningji? What did they say?"

As soon as Tsunade came in, his face was a little fierce.

Turning to bed Xiaochun and Mito Menyan were both startled, and Monyan sat down directly.

Although the faces of the two are still dissatisfied.

"Uh, it's fine."

The superior's opinion was to cancel Neci's team captain's status and disband the team, but Neji didn't care about this, because the mission this time was indeed a near-miss.

Neji was also thinking about whether it would be better to act and escape by himself the next time he meets Dashewan.

"Ningci's team leader status should be cancelled, this time's behavior is too messy! In addition, you are not allowed to accept any missions within a month, don't worry..."

Koharu was talking, when Tsunade suddenly stepped forward in a few steps.

Neji watched Tsunade twist and turn like this, and strode over, putting one hand on the table.

"You two consultants, the internal affairs of the village have been messed up by you all these years when I was away. Do you still want to mess up?"

"Tsunade, you..." Mito swallowed, wanting to refute but didn't dare.

Tsunade stood up, put his arms around his chest, and took a deep breath.

She roared angrily: "If it wasn't for Ningji Hinata this time, I would have been taken away by Orochimaru! The Konoha Village that Mr. Sarutobi guarded with his life is not for you to command coolly here!"

Xiaochun retorted resentfully: "But now you are not Hokage, Hokage is the Hyuga Clan's Nichizuki, and he also agreed to the treatment of Neji. Besides, the Hyuga Clan has recently been in the village..."

"How? The prestige in the village is getting higher and higher, are you worried?"

What Tsunade said made the two of them look at each other in blank dismay, at a loss for what to do.

She snorted coldly: "It stands to reason that you two are not the ones to panic, right? I am the granddaughter of the first Hokage Senju Hashirama, Senju Tsunade! I didn't say anything!"

Her words made the two of them visibly terrified, and they stopped talking.

And Neji unconsciously twitched the corners of his mouth, took a deep breath, and lamented how powerful women are sometimes, especially Tsunade.

It is really big.

"I'll tell you!" Tsunade turned his head full of momentum, thinking only of Neji.

"From today onwards, in this village, this kid will be contracted by me!"
