Neji's indifference towards Hinata was not like this from the beginning.
When he was very young, he was told that he was a member of the branch family and his only purpose of existence was to protect the clan.
My father has always lived like this, and as expected, he should also do the same, protecting the lovely sister of the clan family.
But after being carved with the mark of the caged bird, his mentality changed.
The cyan mark represents his identity, and even his tall father cannot escape it. As he lives in the branch family, he inevitably develops resentment towards the clan family.
Why is there a difference between clan families and branch families?
Why is Hinata's sister so weak in character? In the future, she can become a member of the clan and lead the entire family.
He understood that he himself was destined not to be the exception in the family, and that the family would never have an exception like Brother Zang.
Suppressing the unwillingness in his heart, Neji did not look back and walked towards the training ground.
Looking at this scene, Hinata was a little distracted. She knew that there were gaps between them, but she didn't know what those gaps meant.
I walked aimlessly along the streets and unknowingly arrived at the village's commercial street.
Hinata thought about going to Ino's house to buy some flowers, but she saw a familiar figure not far away, the girl's crush, the number one student in her class, Uchiha Sasuke.
At this time, Sasuke was following behind a young man wearing a police uniform. His usual indifference was no longer on his face, and he looked very happy.
Judging from his appearance, that young man should be Sasuke's rumored brother, the legend of the Ninja School.
Looking at Sasuke and Sasuke's brother who were talking and laughing, Hinata's eyes were full of longing. She actually envied the affection between these brothers and their families.
Brother Ningji would only be indifferent, and Hanabi would only embarrass her and say bad things about the division of the clan.
After buying flowers from the flower shop, as she passed a corner, a pair of strong hands pulled her closer to the alley, and a pair of blue eyes appeared in front of her eyes.
"Rou Fist, Baguazhang!"
Hinata subconsciously used her soft fist and punched the attacker in the abdomen. Hinata grabbed the opponent's collar, turned her hand into a knife and pointed it at the attacker's neck, ready to deliver a fatal blow at any time.
After experiencing being kidnapped, Hinata is no longer afraid of hurting others.
Only by making the enemy lose their ability to resist will they not hurt those around them.
At this time, the figure in the darkness said: "Hinata, it's me, it's me..."
Hinata couldn't help but frown when she heard the familiar voice. She didn't let go immediately, but slowly opened her Byakugan. With the help of her Byakugan, the dark alley became clearer.
After completely seeing the figure who was beaten by him, Hinata panicked for a moment and said: "Naruto, how could it be you? It suddenly scared me..."
At this point, Hinata's face became hot and she did not dare to look directly at Naruto in front of her.
Naruto got up from the ground, patted the dust on his body, then looked at Hinata and said, "Hinata, I didn't expect you to be so powerful. You could subdue me in two or three strokes."
"I'm sorry, Naruto-kun." Hinata's face turned redder.
Naruto said embarrassedly: "It doesn't matter, I attacked you first. I was too anxious just now to ask you for help...I forgot to identify myself?"
"Help?" Hinata looked confused.
Naruto scratched his head and said, "Yes, I asked you for help. I saw a suspicious person on the road, and I thought of finding someone to investigate with me, so I thought of you."
Hinata asked softly: "Naruto-kun, where is the suspicious person?"
Naruto seemed to be reminded of something. He jumped up and said, "Oops, I seem to have lost you."
Hinata chuckled, and after seeing Naruto's embarrassment, her shyness was relieved, and she immediately took the initiative to ask about the appearance of the suspicious person.
Naruto nodded happily, sketched the appearance of the suspicious person, and looked at Hinata carefully, waiting for the other party's answer.
With the help of Byakugan, Hinata quickly located the suspicious person in the crowd, and the two left the dark alley.
In the darkness, Hyuga Tokuma, who was secretly protecting members of the clan, shook his head and quickly followed.
The Byakugan that Miss Hinata can skillfully use is indeed something that makes Hinata happy. It proves that Lucky's Byakugan talent is excellent. When he easily subdued the yellow-haired kid before, it also proved that his physical skills talent is not weak.
But the eldest lady seems to have forgotten one thing. You are not allowed to use the Byakugan casually in the village, especially on the streets filled with countless ninjas. This is very taboo.
The moment Miss Hinata opened her eyes, he felt peeping.
Not long after Hinata Tokuma left, an ANBU appeared here. He was the ANBU responsible for protecting Naruto. After sighing in his heart, he could only follow.
Near Shadow Rock.
After passing through several streets, Naruto and Hinata followed carefully and lurked in the nearby grass to observe the suspicious person, an ordinary-looking old man.
Naruto was actually not sure whether the old man was a suspicious person or not. He was relying solely on his feeling to sense the ill will that the other man had towards the village.
He didn't know whether the feeling was reliable, but it was almost his only pastime when he had nothing to do.
He has no family and very few friends, so he can only focus on ninja games. If he really captures a suspicious person, he will definitely cause a sensation in the class.
He had already imagined the scene where he would be noticed in the class, and a silly smile appeared on his face.
After suppressing his silly smile, Naruto asked Hinata, "Does the opponent have a lot of chakra?"
Hinata stared for a while and shook her head slightly: "He looks like an ordinary person..."
"Ordinary people..." Naruto twitched the corner of his mouth, "This is different from what he imagined. Could it be that the other party is really not a suspicious person? His intuition is wrong."
At this moment, the old man seemed to notice them, looked towards the grass with a chuckle and said, "Stop hiding, I have already seen you!"
"See us already?"
Naruto was a little panicked, so he jumped out and shouted: "How did you see us? And what is your purpose?"
As soon as Naruto came out, Hinata followed suit, assuming a soft fist stance.
After seeing that there was really an ambush, the old man panicked at first, and then after seeing the two children clearly, a disapproving smile appeared on his face, "It turned out to be just two brats, I thought they were Konoha ninjas."
After that, the old man moved in the direction of Naruto and Hinata, and pointed at the location of Shadow Rock as he walked, "But it's okay, you can also witness the destruction of Konoha Ninja Village together."
Naruto stopped in front of Hinata, who in turn stopped him, retreating step by step as the old man approached.
After hearing the old man's words, not only Naruto and Hinata, but also the Anbu and Hinata Tokuma were all shocked by what the old man said.
If in normal times, they would just sneer when they hear a weak-looking old man talk about witnessing the destruction of the village.
However, the village has been on alert recently, repeatedly emphasizing that it may encounter unprecedented attacks.
When they heard such words, they could no longer remain calm, and even secretly became on guard.
They couldn't feel the old man's power. There were only two possibilities. One was that the other party was just an ordinary person, and the other was that the old man's strength was beyond their imagination.
But there are no traces of the transformation technique on the opponent's body, which is very worth pondering.
At this moment, the old man had already approached Naruto and Hinata, and he raised his cane, seemingly harmless, and swung it at the two of them.
At this moment, several ninjas lurking in the dark directly used the teleportation technique.
It is their duty to protect Hinata and Naruto.
However, what no one expected was that Naruto's headbutt directly knocked the old man to the ground. The old man was lying on the ground, and it was very difficult to get up.
Seeing this scene, everyone froze in place, not knowing what to do.
Naruto looked at his hands, then at the old man who fell to the ground, and said blankly: "Am I really going to find out? This is just an ordinary old man."
"It seems so."
The ANBU ninja agreed, he didn't expect that the old man who looked thin was really very thin. It seemed that the previous words were just the old man's oral pleasure, which almost gave him a heart attack.
Naruto nodded slightly, then looked at the ANBU beside him suspiciously: "Uncle Ninja, why are you here? Did you also see it wrong?"
"It's to protect you..." Anbu replied vaguely, feeling a little embarrassed.
Hinata also discovered Uncle Tokuma who was secretly protecting her. She knew this uncle from a separate family, but this was the first time she saw him on such an occasion.
After replying awkwardly to Naruto, the ANBU ninja looked at the old man on the ground again. Although the other man was just talking about it, it also caused a very serious impact. He was almost ready to launch a flare.
Therefore, this arrogant old man must be dealt with, but this is a matter for the security force. Perhaps it can also be handed over to Deputy Minister Uchibo.
After some words, the ANBU ninja said: "Old man, you are talking nonsense and violating public security regulations. You will be handed over to the police force for processing. Do you have any objections?"
"Nonsense...hehe."
The old man showed a charming smile and shifted his gaze towards Shadow Rock. "You think it's nonsense, but I don't mean to lie at all. Destroying Shadow Rock should be regarded as destroying Konoha."
"Shadow Rock?!" The ANBU ninja's expression changed, and he used Wood Release to restrain the old man in place, and immediately ran towards the Shadow Rock. He had already seen the detonating talisman piled up above the Shadow Rock.
He did not imagine that this old man was just an ordinary person, and his target was the symbol of the village, Shadow Rock.
As a gust of wind hit, the detonating talisman gradually flew, and the runes lit up on the talisman paper, setting off an explosion in mid-air.
These detonating symbols may not only target Shadow Rock, but also the residents of the village.
With this thought in Yamato's mind, he bit his fingers and slapped the seals on his hands to the ground, and dry forest trees rose up from the ground and spread towards the shadow rock.
Boom boom boom…
The detonating talisman set off waves of air, causing the flow of the wind to change. The dazzling fire was like the sun, shining incomparably dazzlingly.
Watching the explosion of the detonating talisman, the old man showed a satisfied smile on his face.
But the next moment, the flying detonating symbols did not undergo a chain reaction. After the first few explosions, other detonating symbols flying in the wind did not explode, but burned like normal paper strips.
These detonating symbols that did not explode scattered away, and the burning ashes blended perfectly into the sunset.
"How could this happen?" The old man's face became extremely stiff and he shouted "impossible, impossible". How could he fail after so long preparation?!
Hyuga Tokuma and Yamato also looked confused, wondering why only a very small part of the detonating talisman exploded.
At this time, a figure appeared behind the old man, attracting all the attention, and slowly said: "Of course it's because your detonating talisman was switched by me... How does it feel to witness failure?"
The air was quiet for a few seconds. Yamato patted his chest and said, "Senior Yin, if you had told me earlier, it almost scared me to death. If I hadn't accidentally destroyed the house, I would have had to rebuild it."
Hinata Tokuma stared at the sound, and then closed his eyes out of politeness.
But with just a quick glance, he could feel the powerful aura on the other person's body. No wonder it never happened to him with the Byakugan.
It is very likely that the other party has been hiding in the only blind spot of the perspective.
Compared with these ninjas, Naruto and Hinata had much less mental activity. They expressed their admiration directly and said: "My sister is so powerful, she should be the jounin in the village."
Looking at the short Naruto, Yin nodded slightly: "I am indeed the jounin of the village. In the future, you must also work hard as a jounin."
Encouraged, Naruto scratched his head and said with a smile: "I actually aim to become Hokage, because becoming Hokage will gain everyone's recognition."
Yin's expression changed slightly, and then he said with a playful smile: "What a coincidence, I am also targeting the Hokage..."
After the joke, Yin glanced at Hinata, used the Sharingan to cast an illusion on the old man, and made him fall asleep. He handed it to Yamato and ordered: "Yamato, transfer him to the torture class."
Yamato nodded. Although ordinary people did not need to use the torture class, the other party's activities had already reached the level of a terrorist attack and were difficult to tolerate.
Taking a few steps forward, Uchibo arrived at the top of Shadow Rock, which was the center of the previous explosion.
The center of the explosion was scorched black, and small cracks appeared in some places, but the wife was not affected.
This time she accepted Zang's commission and came to visit Hinata, her future disciple, but she didn't expect Hinata to meet Naruto, and she also witnessed this farce.
An old man, who was just an ordinary person, almost blew up Shadow Rock and brought shame to the village.
In fact, even she didn't notice the detonating talisman hidden in the shadow rock at first. After all, no one would attack it casually.
So when the detonating talisman exploded, she was also shocked, so there was no such thing as the act of swapping the detonating talisman.
In fact, she used the pupil technique immediately after the detonating talisman exploded to avoid the subsequent explosion of the detonating talisman. However, her performance was very calm and under control.
