A week passed, and the village gradually fell into peace.

But what has happened cannot be changed, and the wheels of history that have already moved forward will not stop turning.

Naruto Office.

The third generation came out of the ward. His injuries have not fully healed, but as Hokage, it is definitely not okay to lie in the hospital all the time.In order to "stabilize the morale of the military," he also had to sit in the office.

Neji was now standing in front of him, reaching out and grabbing the documents on the table.

This is proof of his promotion to Chunin, and a letter of commendation for his performance during the Orochimaru Rebellion.

"Only you and Shikamaru became chunin this time." Sandai said, "You two have flexible minds and are very scarce talents in the village. In fact, with your current strength, Neji, it is enough to be promoted to jounin... …But after all, your qualifications are not enough, and you have done too few tasks.”

"clear."

Unless it is during a war where everything is simplified, the promotion process of Jonin is still quite troublesome.You have to complete a certain number of tasks, have to be inspected by the Hokage, have to pass the Jonin exam, etc.

"As for what you said before, that you want to join ANBU..." Sandai crossed his arms and paused for a long time. "It's better to take this matter slowly."

"..."

Slow down first?

Neji was slightly surprised, but then he thought that this was probably a knock on him.

Regarding what he did in the family, although the village chose to remain silent in the end, it was impossible to say that he had no opinions.

Moreover, he has also been thinking about one thing these days, that is, he killed the elder and the village senior officials remained silent.So when he really finds a way to release the caged bird, will the village still remain silent?

Now he is the only one to lift it, so the impact is not very big.Moreover, he is strong and has the ability to protect himself, so the village leaders will not worry that he will be easily captured by the enemy and rob him of his eyes.

but……

If one day, all the branch families are freed from caged birds, then... the robbery of Byakugan in the hidden villages of other countries is bound to happen.

And this is definitely something the village's senior officials don't want to see.

When he thought of this, Neji felt an invisible resistance surrounding himself.

He knew very well that the village leaders could tolerate him now, but when he really wanted to take that step, they might not be able to tolerate him anymore.

Unless, at that time, he had the capital to make the village leaders "tolerate even if they don't want to tolerate it."

This capital is more than just strength...

It is not enough to have power, you must also have a certain right to speak and influence public opinion.Otherwise, when your image is at the mercy of others, you will be a hero when others need you.When you don't need it, you can be branded as a scum, a traitor... or even an enemy of mankind in a matter of minutes.

So Neji didn't say anything more and said calmly: "Then let's do it."

"Um……"

The Sandaime looked at Ningji. Although he was young and had experienced many things, he still couldn't see through the young man from before.

A rebellious or uncontrollable person is not scary, but a person who cannot see through is scary.

For example, Orochimaru, although his research is very anti-human, his purpose is so simple and direct that it doesn't make people feel terrible.On the other hand, some people who may not have committed any terrorist acts are even more worrying, because we don’t know what they want to do, and if they are not protected, something big will happen at some point, which will catch people off guard.

Neji falls into the latter category.

The third generation's worries about him are also justified.

After coming out of the Hokage's office, Neji walked on the road. From time to time, villagers would recognize him and greet him cordially.

His appearance is still relatively recognizable, with his white robe and long black hair, which is considered a relatively individual image... However, since his outstanding performance, many children now imitate his dress, and occasionally he can be seen from the street. I saw several children playing in white robes, some pretending to be Neji and some pretending to be Suna Ninja.

Neji was still very happy about this, which showed that he was very popular.

But he didn't get carried away, because he knew that people's hearts are fickle.The battle has just ended, and the villagers are still deeply impressed, but they will probably gradually forget it after a while...

Later, if someone wants to mess with him, as long as he publicizes what he has done within the family and deliberately guides him, then these villagers who liked him may become disgusted with him... thinking that he killed his fellow clan members and killed others. Elders... From heroes to cold-blooded executioners, it only takes a moment.

"No matter what... I have to prepare for the worst."

Neji took a deep breath.He knew that the road he had to take was difficult and had many obstacles, but this was his choice.

He could just go with the flow, not caring about anything, and just focus on practicing. In the future, by helping Naruto defeat the villain, become a stable family elder, guide the younger generation, find a beautiful woman to live in, and enjoy the blessings of everyone from now on.

But that wasn't what he wanted.

……

Neji came to the training ground. Tiantian and Xiao Li were there. The latter had just been discharged from the hospital and could not train at high intensity now. He was only doing some recovery training.

Tenten was still studying his space flow ninjutsu. When he saw Neji coming over and learned that he had been promoted to chunin, he also expressed congratulations.

"That's great Neji! Let's go to dinner after training? Let's celebrate!"

"sure."

"Neji, you are already a chuunin, you are so awesome! It seems that I have to work harder!" Xiao Li was also happy for Ningci, and at the same time, he also encouraged himself.

"Okay, let's train."

"Ok!"

With all the busyness these days, Neji has fallen behind on his training.

He knew that he was no longer like before, keeping quiet and practicing silently every day.

Now, many people have noticed him, and many eyes are focused on him... He must ensure that he does not become stronger slowly. Only in this way can he protect himself.

Neji spent the whole day training.

He is currently saving energy bars to upgrade his Byakugan. Upgrading requires a hundred tubes, which is quite a lot.But now with daily diet and training, the limit is probably 6 tubes a week.There are currently a total of 40 energy bars remaining.

In other words, if you want to save up to 200 tubes, you still need 160.Assuming the limit is 6 tubes every week, it will take about 26 weeks, 6 or 7 months.

In the past, Neji didn't think half a year was very long, but it was different now... now there was time pressure on him.

This pressure comes from all aspects, the village, the family...

Yes, there is pressure on the family side too.It is true that everyone supports him now, but why?Is it all because of his charisma?Still have a domineering spirit?

Maybe some people really admire Neci as a person, but more of them are because Neji can help them release the caged bird.

There are basically only two possibilities for people to "manage" a person: first, this person wants something from you, and second, this person is afraid of you.

Nowadays, there are many families who want to beg Neji, but this "beg" is not indefinite... Neji promised to help them release the caged bird, but when exactly did it happen?Tomorrow, next week, next month, next year?

If there is no exact time, the people who separate will only gradually lose confidence...and gradually become dissatisfied with Neci, feeling that what he said does not count at all.

Therefore, the clan rule promulgated by Hanabi that "the clan is not allowed to use the curse seal to punish the division of the family" bought Neji a lot of time.

"The energy bar...is there any way to speed up the acquisition?"

After the training, after having a celebratory dinner with Tenten Xiaoli, Neji thought as he walked home.

At present, there are only two ways to obtain crimson energy, which are eating and training.

We have reached the limit in training, so we can only start with eating... Now that Neji is eating the best and most nourishing food every day within the conditions, how can he improve?

"It would be great if I could get a chakra fruit to eat like Kaguya, it would definitely have more energy." Neji couldn't help but think, he naturally knew that this was nonsense, but this suddenly gave him an idea .

Wait, chakra fruit...

Chakra fruit is formed by absorbing the energy of the earth and humans. If I build a similar device... No, that method is not what I should use, it is too anti-human.

But...what if humans aren't involved?

Neji suddenly came up with a somewhat scary idea: tailed beasts, are they considered to be a great tonic?
