Naruto: My mother, Haruno Sakura, is so smart that she is almost a demon
Chapter 74: Knockout Round with Frequent Problems
After Hinata sent Neji to the infirmary, Hyuga Hiashi arrived as expected and dismissed the medical staff and Hinata as soon as he entered the door.
Neji found it ridiculous looking at the servile Hyuga Hiashi in front of him.
Because of Sakura's spoiler, Neji now felt that it was really funny that Hizashi, who usually showed off in front of the branch family, was so afraid of the crisis of public opinion.
If it weren't for Sakura, even if Neji wanted to change the fate of the branch family, he wouldn't be able to find the direction to work towards.
In the animation, it is not so much that Neji was persuaded by Naruto, but rather that he was waiting for someone to persuade him.
Neji needs someone to convince himself, even if that person tells some empty lies, he is willing to be deceived.
Because he knew very well that he could not resist fate at all, he needed a lie to free himself from the pain of not getting what he wanted.
When Hiashi took out his father's handwritten letter, Neji pretended to be touched, but he was furious in his heart:
Why are you bringing out your father's last words now?
In order to resolve the crisis of public opinion, are you going to even use your deceased father?
Although Hizashi still kneels to Neji as in the original work, the effect achieved is very different from that in the animation.
Neji only seemed to be obedient on the surface, but in reality, he became even more determined to rebel against the main family.
"Please stand up quickly, Lord Rizu!"
Neji quickly got off the bed and helped Hiashi up.
"Don't worry, Lord Rizu, I swear on my life:
From now on, I will do my best to protect Miss Hinata.
Even if it means sacrificing my life."
Of course, this is limited to Hinata and does not include other main families.
Neji added in his mind.
Feeling that his goal had been achieved, Hiashi exchanged a few words with Neji and left.

In the players' lounge, it was time for the second game to start, but Sasuke still hadn't shown up.
Just when Genma Shiranui was about to sentence Sasuke to defeat, the Kazekage suggested to Sarutobi Hiruzen to postpone this key battle, after all, many viewers came for this match.
Moreover, many people are betting on Sasuke as the focus of the battle, and even if Gaara wins without fighting, it will not be able to stop the gossip.
Sarutobi Hiruzen also took the opportunity to accept the Kazekage's proposal.
"Yes, my lord."
Genma Shiranui naturally had no right to disobey orders.
"The next match is between Kankuro and Aburame Shino!"
"I surrender!"
As soon as Genma Shiranui finished speaking, Kankuro raised his hands in surrender.
This time Kankuro was on a secret mission. He could see that Shino was different from Ken Misumi, and he couldn't defeat Shino easily.
In order not to expose the various mechanisms of the Crow, Kankuro had to give up the competition.
"It seems your opponent hasn't arrived yet?"
Shikamaru still didn't see Toss, so he asked Sakura curiously.
"Oh? Shikamaru, do you still have the time to care about me at this time?
Friendly reminder, it’s noon now! "
Sakura teased Shikamaru.
"Trouble!"
Shikamaru immediately understood what Sakura wanted to express. The Nara family's shadow ninjutsu can extend the distance with the help of the shadows of other objects. If Toss didn't come, he would appear in advance regardless of delaying the exam or being judged as a loser.
Then Shikamaru's heart suddenly tightened. He didn't expect Sakura to know so much about the Nara family's secret techniques.
"Ah, according to the latest intelligence!
"Tos Anvil has seriously violated the exam rules during the one month of preparation and has been disqualified from the exam."
Genma Shiranui's words caused an uproar among the audience in the venue.
"Sakura, why don't you look surprised at all?"
Shikamaru looked at the calm smile on Sakura's face and felt that she must have known that Toss would not come.
"Did you break the rules of the exam during the month of preparation?"
Shikamaru muttered to himself and began to think in his mind:
Isn't this month a free time? If there is any violation that can affect the exam, it can only be against the candidates...
Wait, could it be...
"Yes, it's just as you thought. Toss Anvil tried to assassinate me, but failed."
Sakura looked at Shikamaru's expression and knew that he had already guessed what was going on.
"Then...Tosita..."
Shikamaru questioned.
"I told you... the assassination failed."
After hearing Sakura's answer, Shikamaru sighed.
Throughout history, the fate of ninjas who failed in assassination attempts is self-evident.
"Next match, Temari vs. Nara Shikamaru!"
Following Genma's order, Temari jumped down from the lounge stand with great momentum.
"Damn it, why do I have to be the only one to appear early?!
I want to abstain too!"
Shikamaru's mentality was a little broken at this time. He should have been the last one to enter the battle. The lower altitude of the sun would make his ninjutsu more powerful.
But accidents kept happening one after another, forcing me to be the second one to appear on stage, and it’s noon now!
"Come on, Shikamaru!
cheer up! "
Just as Shikamaru was about to raise his hands in surrender, Naruto suddenly pushed Shikamaru.
Naruto's rough action directly pushed Shikamaru off the stands!
Then, the match between Shikamaru and Temari began.
The reason why Sakura asked Sasuke to come later was not only to avoid the butterfly effect that would cause problems in Konoha's collapse plan, but also because she didn't want the battle between Shikamaru and Temari to be cancelled.
This can be said to be the beginning of the fate of the two.
Although Sakura doesn't know the ending of the animation, Shikamaru and Temari are one of the most compatible couples in the original work.
The sense of CP is even second only to Naruto and Sasuke!
If the two of them can really be together, it can also strengthen the Sand Village's dependence on Konoha. After all, Temari's identity is there. She is the daughter of the Fourth Generation and the sister of the Fifth Generation. As long as her strength is acceptable, Temari's future status is estimated to be on the same level as Chiyotoki.
The result of the match was similar to that in the anime, with Shikamaru successfully controlling Temari through the hole dug by Naruto, but unexpectedly choosing to forfeit afterwards.
A typical example of losing the game but winning life.
Although the content of the game was quite exciting, Sakura couldn't help but complain in her heart:
When the shadow imitation technique is successful, Shikamaru will not lose as long as he has a kunai in his hand.
During the time before Shikamaru's shadow imitation technique failed, he was able to kill Temari with kunai eight times!
Is it so difficult to hold a kunai in your hand while making a seal?
Even if you are afraid that something in your hand will affect the seal, didn’t you see that there is such a big fan next to Temari?
Control her head and hit it!
I guess Shikamaru didn't think about winning in this game, or in Shikamaru's opinion, he had already won.
Sakura felt that although Shikamaru hated fighting, he was very keen on gambling.
If this match was viewed as a game of chess, then the moment Shikamaru's shadow imitation technique succeeded, he had already won.
“As long as the game is exciting, that’s fine.”
After leaving these words, Shikamaru lazily turned around and walked towards the lounge.
Temari stared at Shikamaru's back. At this moment, she knew that this boy, who was three years younger than her, was not walking into the lounge, but into her heart.
Before Shikamaru had time to reach the lounge, Sasuke, who was late, finally arrived at the player's lounge.
"Xiaoying, as you said, I left home at noon, how are you doing?
You promised me that you would not disqualify me."
"Of course, no problem. Thanks to my efforts, your game has been delayed."
Sakura shamelessly told another lie.
“The main characters always appear at the end.
How about it, Sasuke, are you ready?"
Sasuke curled his lips into a confident, devilish smile, confirming what Sakura said.
At this time, Shikamaru also walked into the lounge again.
Sakura looked at his listless appearance and would definitely not believe that there was no shady deal for him to become the only Chunin in this exam.
Judging from the performance of the six people who appeared, he might be only slightly better than his opponent Temari.
If you look at it without tinted glasses, Naruto's sudden inspiration for the battle plan may not be much worse than Shikamaru's, and even though they are both losers, Shikamaru's ability is not as good as Neji's.
