Naruto: If I ask you to practice gentle fist, will you drive a Gundam?

A long time passed after Neji finished speaking, but Hinata Hiashi was still feeling the shock surging in his heart.

Of course, Rizu knew what these words meant.

To fight against fate is to fight against the main family, against Konoha, and against this corrupt order.

In fact, Hiashi had also thought of other possibilities when it came to this matter. If the Hyuga clan had relied on their resources and manpower to argue with Konoha, it would not be difficult to save Hiashi's life.

But every time Rizu discussed this matter with the elders of the clan, he would be refuted.

The Hyuga clan is ostensibly led by their patriarch, Hyuga Hiashi, but in this kind of large feudal traditional family, the elders in the clan often have the greatest say.

The Council of Elders headed by the Hyuga clan is the force that secretly controls the Hyuga clan.

When the Kumogakure incident happened, Hyuga Munen was present, and it was he who proposed replacing Hyuga Hiashi with Hyuga Hizashi.

Although Hyuga Hiashi is the clan leader, he can only do as he is told and dares not resist the orders of the elder at all. This shows how powerful the Elder Council is behind the Hyuga clan.

At this moment, Neji's words were like a spark that ignited a fuse called resistance and made Hiashi think about new possibilities.

If I had been braver back then, perhaps my younger brother Hizashi wouldn't have died, and my relationship with Neji wouldn't have become so strained.

As for the bird in the cage, Rizu actually didn't have much opinion. He just silently followed the tradition that had been passed down for thousands of years. However, he didn't have any likes or dislikes for this tradition itself. To him, the bird in the cage was more like a task and responsibility passed down from his ancestors.

But today, seeing that Neji was freed from the caged bird seal by his ancestor, Hiashi couldn't help but begin to doubt whether it was necessary to continue passing down this thousand-year-old tradition of the Hyuga family.

In the lounge, Neji calmly waited for Hiashi's reply, while Hiashi was caught up in a difficult brainstorming session. The entire room became extremely quiet because of the silence, and even the voice of the examiner Genma Shiranui could be heard through the thick walls:

"Since Sasuke is not here! The examiner has decided to postpone this match! Next match! Aburame Shino versus Kankuro! Please enter the venue, ninjas from both sides!"

The second match was supposed to be between Toth and Gaara, but because Toth lost his life in advance, Gaara got a bye and was skipped.

The third match was between Sasuke and Rock Lee. Because Sasuke had not yet completed his training and the top management attached great importance to him, Sasuke's qualification for the match was not disqualified but postponed.

"The next match is Aburame Shino vs. Kankuro? Haha, looks like we have to skip it again..."

Neji was in a very calm mood at this time, and he could even spare some energy to pay attention to the game outside the room.

Looking at Hyuga Hiashi's solemn and embarrassed expression, Neji knew that it was a bit too much to ask such a feudal patriarch to make such a decision, so he said:

"Master Hiashi, I've told you that you don't have to rush to make a decision. Wait until later today to see if the things Neji said will happen. Then you will know whether the ancestors' words are effective. It won't be too late to make a decision then."

Hearing what Neji said, Hiashi slowly raised his head, his eyebrows almost twisted together, and looked at Neji very solemnly and said: "This matter is of great importance, please allow me to think about it..."

At first, Hiashi didn't believe what Neji said, but somehow after Neji's words, Hiashi became more and more convinced of those terrible prophecies.

There will be a riot in Konoha today, and the Sandaime will be assassinated...

Obviously these things sound extremely unrealistic, but somehow, these news coming from Neji's mouth are incredibly credible.

What's even more terrifying is that Rizu found that he was secretly expecting these things to happen.

As the head of a clan, he would also like to hold real power and control all power of the Hyuga clan.

But those corrupt elders are too old, and I can only be on equal footing with them when I am as old as them. But what's the point of waiting until then? It will only add a new general to the elders council.

"Very good! I look forward to your reply..."

Neji replied with a smile, looking relaxed, because he had the capital to be so relaxed.

Even if Ningji is now targeted by the Konoha high-level officials and expelled from Konoha, the worst that can happen is that he finds a small village to establish his own ninja village and develop it slowly. What's wrong with that?

This is the worst case scenario, and other options may only be better than this.

Unlike Neji who looked relaxed, Hiashi was sweating profusely and his face seemed to have a few more wrinkles.

Hiashi slowly stood up from his seat and walked out of the house without saying another word.

Just as Hiashi opened the door, Aburame Shino walked in from outside.

She nodded politely when she saw Hiashi, but Hiashi seemed to be still deep in thought and didn't notice Aburame Shino.

Aburame Shino looked at Hiashi's slowly leaving back, a suspicious look appearing under her pair of black sunglasses.

"Your relative?"

Shino walked into the room and said to Neji.

Aburame Shino is usually a quiet person, but when he does speak, he tries to be as concise as possible, as if not being brief and concise would cost him his life.

"Ah."

Ningji had long been accustomed to it, and every time he talked to him he would cater to his preferences and follow this pattern.

"what happened?"

"fine."

"That's good."

"Ah."

Shino chatted briefly with Neji and then went to the lounge, found a sofa and sat down to rest.

Neji knew that it must be Kankuro who gave up voluntarily that allowed Aburame Shino to complete the competition so quickly.

Since Shino didn't say anything, Neji was tactful enough not to ask, because he knew Shino's taciturn character very well.

Shino, who was eager to try, was feeling depressed because he had skipped the competition. Asking rashly would only disgust the other party.

Not only Shino, but Ningji also remembers the personality traits of almost all the characters in the original work. It is precisely because of this that Ningji can quickly establish his own network of relationships, become friends with the Twelve Strong Men and enjoy a high prestige.

[Detected that Aburame Shino's bond value has increased! Currently 50%! ]

Seeing the system interface, Neji's previous actions were proven to be correct.

Sometimes doing nothing and just staying there quietly can also increase the other person's favorability. Of course, you must first have the ability to observe words and expressions like Neji, or have read the script in advance.

At this time, the voice of Shiranui Genma was heard again from outside the house:

"Next match! Nara Shikamaru versus Temari! Both parties, please enter the arena!"

This time, after Xuanjian announced the lineups of the two teams, there were no cheers from the audience as usual.

Perhaps it was because they had to skip several games in a row that made them lose interest, or perhaps it was because Temari and Shikamaru were too low-key, which made the audience lose interest. It seemed that very few people were looking forward to this game.

At this time, the annoyed Shino took the initiative to speak:

"What do you think of the next game?"

Hearing Shino's question, Neji thought for a moment and replied:

"Shikamaru, he will probably lose, he's too lazy..."

Neji imitated Shikamaru's expression of being bothered and waved his hand.

"Haha! I agree!"

Shino said with a smile, amused by Neji's imitation.

“But the process might be unexpectedly beautiful~”

Neji spoke to Shino in suspense, as if he had read the script in advance.

"Oh? Really..."

Aroused by Neji's words, Shino shifted his gaze to the live broadcast screen in the room and watched the live game.
