I practice martial arts in Konoha

The next day.

The white clone had tidied up the house early in the morning.

All items to be taken away are packed and placed in the carry-on scroll.

Not much actually.

The really important things are hidden in a secret base 300 meters underground.

What I keep around me are mainly some research materials and notes.

dong dong dong...

"Master Neji, the clan leader invites you to come over."

The maid Hinata Natsu knocked on the door and said.

"I know, it's over."

The white clone stood up and went out slowly.

Hinata Xia bit her lip and looked at his short and lonely back.

There was a hint of complexity in the snow-white eyes.

After coming out of the hospital, Master Neji seemed like a different person.

What he does becomes increasingly unpredictable.

Today, the Hokage Assistant even came to visit him personally, wanting to accept him as his disciple.

For thousands of years, no family member has been able to escape the fate of a caged bird. Will Master Neji be the first?

◎

As soon as the white clone stepped into the clan's mansion, he felt a solemn atmosphere.

Danzo was sitting at the guest seat, holding a cup of matcha, his eyes lowered and silent.

The second-in-command in a black cloak, Aburame Ryoma, stood quietly behind him, like a background that was easy to ignore.

And on the opposite side.

Hinata Hizu and the three clan elders were all present. Except for Hinata Hizu who was expressionless, the three elders all had gloomy faces.

You can tell at a glance.

The two parties had not been able to reach an agreement on the matter of recruiting disciples.

The three elders did not want to let him go easily.

Seeing the white clone arriving.

Hinata and Hinashi turned a blind eye and had no intention of speaking.

As the oldest clan elder, Hinata Shinko had no choice but to step forward. A sharp light shot out of his eyes, with a very explicit hint, as he stared at the white clone.

"Neji, Lord Danzo wants to accept you as a disciple and let you join the Roots. What do you mean?"

The white clone said calmly: "It all depends on the family."

Hinata Mamitsu choked.

According to his idea, he wanted the white clone to refuse, and then he could go with the flow and show respect for the white clone's wishes, leaving Danzo speechless.

I didn't expect the white clone to answer like this.

But this answer is very consistent with the duty of dividing the family.

He couldn't fault it either.

Fortunately, he had prepared a backup plan.

"Danzo-sama, although Neji is very talented, he is too weak now, regardless of his age or strength, to serve Danzo-sama."

"Our Hyuga clan is full of talented people, why don't you choose someone else, Danzo-sama?"

Having said this, Hinata Mamitsu paused and gave a light drink.

"Iroha!"

boom!

The smoke dispersed.

A Hyuga boy knelt down on one knee and appeared in the field.

"Hyuga Iroha graduated from the Ninja School at the age of nine, participated in the Ninja World War, and became a Chuunin at the age of ten. He is 13 years old this year. He has submitted an application for promotion to Special Jonin and is currently waiting for the approval of Lord Hokage..."

Hinata Mamitsu introduced with a proud look on his face.

Hyuga Iroha is a branch genius trained by his lineage. Regardless of the purity of the Byakugan or the speed of growth, it is better than the youngest Jonin in the clan leader's lineage, Hinata Fire Gate.

His original plan was that as long as Iroha successfully promoted to special jounin, he would push Iroha out and become the signature ninja of the Hyuga clan. He would compete with Uchiha Shisui of the Uchiha clan and compete for Hinata's reputation. .

But now.

Although it was heartbreaking, in order to keep Neji, a super genius, I had to sacrifice Iroha.

"Special jounin? I have no shortage..."

Danzo didn't even raise his eyelids.

Hyuga Shinko's mouth twitched when he heard this: "Danzo-sama, please think twice, Iroha is already Hyuga's most outstanding genius."

Danzo: "Really? I don't believe it!"

Hinata Shinko smiled slightly, "Otherwise, let Iroha and Neji compete, and the winner will become Danzo-sama's disciple!"

This statement came out.

Everyone looked at him strangely.

I didn't expect this old guy to be so shameless and let a four-year-old little bean sprout compete with a 13-year-old special jounin. Is there anyone who bullies people like that?

No matter how talented Neji is, what strength can his hands and feet have with his immature body of only four years old?How much chakra can be in the body?

And "the winner will be Danzo-sama's disciple"?

It's like forcing Iroha to be Danzo-sama's disciple!

In the face of everyone's witnessing, Hinata Shinko seemed to turn a blind eye and still sat upright, looking magnanimous.

Danzo turned to look at the white clone, with a hint of testing in his one eye.

"Ningji, what do you think?"

"Follow your Lordships' instructions."

The white clone remained noncommittal.

Hinata Shinko thought he had a chance of victory and coughed lightly: "Iroha, go and teach Neji his soft fist technique. Be careful not to hurt him."

"Yes!"

Hinata Iroha stood up.

Only then did everyone see his appearance clearly.

There is no ugly person in the Hyuga clan.

After all, the blood of Otsutsuki Kaguya flows through her blood, and her skin color is a bit paler than that of ordinary people.

A white cover a hundred ugliness.

But compared to those handsome-looking Hyuga clan members, although Iroha's appearance is not ugly, it is still slightly mediocre.

He inherited the iconic square face of Hinata Shinko's lineage.

He looks dignified, calm and reliable.

And his eyes did reveal a sense of loyalty and honesty, even a little dull.

The white clone secretly pouted.

I checked with my eyes, you are not the talent Danzo needs!

"Master Neji, please give me your advice."

Iroha faced Neji and formed the Seal of Opposition with one hand.

The expression on his face was serious and serious, and he did not show any slightness due to the young age of his opponent.

"Brother Iroha, please give me your advice."

The white clone also formed a seal of opposition.

But what he was thinking about at the moment was how much strength he should use later.

He has the powerful strength of an adult corpse bone jounin. If he goes all out and uses taijutsu, he may be able to break Iroha's arm in three or five moves. Therefore, he must hold back his strength and not act too outrageous. .

Kakashi was a five-year-old genin and a six-year-old chuunin.

And he is a better super genius than Kakashi.

Although he is only over four years old, it is not too much to have the strength and speed of an average genin, right?

What is the specific level of strength and speed of an average genin?

The white clone recalled the scene when he first met Tatsuya...

"Blind eyes!"

Three meters apart.

Iroha shouted softly, opened his eyes, and made a soft fist stance.

The white clone did not do this.

Because he didn't have Byakugan, he only had the power to transcribe the seal, and the secret was revealed as soon as he opened it.

Waited a few seconds.

Seeing that the white clone had no intention of attacking first, Iroha moved and took the initiative to attack.

Whoosh!

The air hummed softly.

He is worthy of being a Hyuga genius who is confident of being promoted to a special jounin. He is very fast, even faster than the average jounin.

Just a flash.

He arrived in front of the white clone and struck out with soft fists and acupuncture points with both hands.
