Late at night, after sending Naruto home, Neji walked alone on the streets of Konoha Village.

At this time, most shops are closed except for some pubs which are still open.

In the residential area behind the shops, the villagers went to sleep even earlier.

It’s not that Neji doesn’t want to go home and sleep, but twenty large bowls of top-quality Ichiraku ramen are really too cost-effective. Even though Neji consumed a lot today, he still couldn’t digest so much energy at once.

Looking up at the sky, Neji discovered that it was a full moon today. Although the lights in the village were off, they were still very bright under the moonlight.

Neji remembered that the moon in Naruto seemed to be different from the real one. The moon in Naruto was actually an artificial moon.

Thinking of this, Neji was suddenly inspired to explore.

"Why not find a high place and take a closer look at the moon."

Looking around, Neji found the tallest building, a tall pavilion located in the north of the village. It was in a remote location and at a suitable height.

Anyway, no one will say anything no matter what time Ningji comes home, after all, he is the head of the family.

So what’s the next step?

Since Neji now has more than one means of displacement, he can choose any one he likes.

The displacement methods currently mastered by Ningci are:

The first is the Super Shadow-level Stand Technique that Neji first mastered. Although it can be used as instant teleportation, it has a long cooldown time. After observing it over the years, Neji found that this technique is very useful for moving once, but it cannot be used continuously.

This substitution technique is best used to save lives and escape at critical moments. Using it to move is a bit too extravagant.

Moreover, there are many foreign ninjas in the village, as well as hidden forces such as the Sound Ninja and the Sand Ninja. It is too risky to use life-saving skills at will.

Secondly, there is the space-time ninjutsu, Kamui, which Neji later mastered.

This ninjutsu requires Obito's Mangekyō Sharingan as a medium. Although it will cause incredible damage to the eyes themselves, fortunately Neji has a large number of spare eyeballs that can be replaced, so he can use them at will.

Moreover, using it extensively and repeatedly can also help Neji improve his proficiency and eye power with the Mangekyō Sharingan, which is an invaluable benefit.

However, with Neji's current proficiency, it would take a little time for him to instantly move his body or other objects. For the time being, he cannot disappear in a whirlpool like Obito did.

However, when the two eyes are in the state of Kamui, the speed can be doubled, but Neji has not yet developed more abilities of this double Kamui.

But despite this, Kamui, as a space-time ninjutsu, can not only help Neci achieve instant teleportation, but also consume a large amount of chakra, which is exactly the best choice for Neci at the moment.

Thinking of this, Neji looked around and found that there was no one else, so he walked to the corner and quietly changed the Mangekyō Sharingan from the system space.

"Divine power!"

As Neji moved his mind, his body was slowly drawn into a vortex and finally disappeared.

The next second, Neji arrived at the top of the tall building that he had previously locked onto with his naked eyes.

The roof of this high-rise building adopts the typical Japanese architectural style of Irimoya-zukuri, which is derived from the Chinese hip-and-gable roof shape. On both sides of the long roof stand two huge Chiwen in the shape of dragon heads and fish bodies. At this time, Neji was standing on the Chiwen on the east side.

"Wow~ It's really high! But I can't see it clearly..."

Neji's pair of Sharingan are recently facing the fate of being eliminated due to excessive use.

"I can still use it again. After I'm completely blind, I'll store it for future blind box draws."

At this moment, the careful calculation Ningji suddenly felt as if there was a pair of eyes behind him quietly observing him, and cold sweat immediately broke out on his forehead.

"who!"

As he turned around, in order to keep a low profile and hide his identity, Neji changed his eyes back to his usual Byakugan.

At this time, Neji discovered that on the Chiwen at the other end of the roof, there was a red-haired ninja with a large gourd on his back. It was Gaara from the Sand Village. At this time, Gaara seemed to be quietly admiring the moon just like Neji.

"I should be the one asking this..."

Gaara said lightly, his tone sounding calm.

"Oh? So there's someone here. Sorry to bother you."

Neji knew that Gaara was the type of person who would not offend others unless they offended him, so he greeted him very politely.

Gaara was a little confused by Neci's polite greeting. He felt that the ninja in front of him seemed different from the others. He did not feel the vigor and combativeness that he should have at this age, nor did he feel any hostility at all.

This reminds me of when Gaara first arrived at Konoha Village:

At that time, the Byakugan Ninja also came to my side silently, just like this time. How did he do it?

A second ago, there was nothing on the Chiwen opposite, but when I turned around after admiring the scenery, I found that he was already standing there.

Gaara found it incredible.

"..."

Gaara did not answer Neji's words, but just observed quietly, suppressing his restless heart. He looked up at the moon slightly and found that the full moon was becoming more and more dazzling.

Seeing Gaara's actions, Neji suddenly realized something.

In the original work, Gaara in the early stage had a werewolf-like setting, and would become agitated or even go berserk during the full moon, although this setting was gradually eliminated in the later period.

But it’s better not to provoke him for now. If he fights, Neji is confident that he will not lose, but no matter how he wins, it will not help his plan.

At present, Neji’s goal is to let Sunagakure and Sound Village join forces to stir up trouble in Konoha, kill the Sandaime, and give Konoha a new blood.

The most crucial thing at this stage of this tactic of killing with a borrowed knife is to rely on Gaara to complete it.

Moreover, the Nine-Tailed Fox in his body and the One-Tailed Fox Shukaku in Gaara's body are incompatible. If they get close to each other in their current state, they might react to each other, and the situation will definitely get out of hand, which is something Neji absolutely does not want.

So the best solution for Neji at this time is to delay the attack and keep Gaara from getting too excited.

But seeing that Gaara didn't say a word, it was obvious that he was a taciturn person, so Neji could only make small talk.

But what to say?

At this time, the bells hanging on the Chiwen under Ningji's feet were blown by the wind, and bursts of silver bell-like sounds came out, which was very crisp and pleasant.

"The wind is a bit noisy today..."

After saying this, Neji turned around and looked into the distance, suddenly feeling very embarrassed.

What am I talking about... Neji thought.

At this time, Gaara discovered that the direction of Neji's wish was exactly the direction of the Sand Village, and the "wind" in Neji's mouth, combined with the Sand Village, these keywords seemed to evoke some feelings in Gaara, so Gaara responded lightly:

"It's just that the long way home has been buried by the sand..."

Unlike Neji, Gaara was full of his childishness at this time, and he was not embarrassed at all even when saying such lines.

But Ningji was working on his feet again.

Thanks to the blessing of Otsutsuki's chakra, Neji's toes were extremely powerful, and the tiles under his feet were shattered by his toes.

What kind of a chuunibunny conversation is this, Neji thought.

He turned his head and observed Gaara, who seemed to be still waiting for Neji's next words.

Good man, are you planning to battle with me?

"Well... but fortunately... this bright moon..."

Neji deliberately used a strange tone and read the second-year dialogue as if he was reciting a poem, but he seemed unable to utter this sentence.

Fortunately, someone came to the rescue the next second.

Suddenly, a ninja covered in bandages jumped onto the roof. It was Toss, the captain of the Sound Ninja Team.

Toss said to Neji and Gaara with a happy look on his face:

"I came here just for the red hair, but I didn't expect to get something unexpected."

After saying that, Toss showed off his proud arms and stared at Neji and Gaara, wondering which one he should get rid of first.
