During this year, because of Hiruzen Sarutobi's fear, Team 3 did not receive any mission to leave the Land of Fire. Hyuga Neji taught a lot of thoughts and physical skills to the members of Team 3, including the instructor of Team 3.
Nimaite Kai also became a mentee.
In this year, Tiantian and Locke Li have met many nobles and civilians during their missions. Even in a wealthy country like the Fire Country, there are still civilians who are as miserable as a war-torn country, and their survival is not guaranteed.
As he saw more and more civilians of the Fire Nation, Tiantian's thoughts and strength grew and matured at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After all, Hyuga Neji's teachings were not in vain. When Hyuga Neji's guidance overlapped with reality, Tiantian felt like tearing open this hazy film of reality, and saw the level of reality, wealth and poverty, life and death, luxury and cost, which gave her the inspiration
It’s the beginning of changing the world.
Hyuga Neji paid attention to Tenten and guided Tenten to think about his arrangements, which was very effective in the end.
As for Sarutobi Hiruzen, he frequently tried to get Hyuga Neji and Tenten to be promoted to chuunin.
If you are promoted to chuunin, you will have reason to split up the team, let each lead the team, and split up Hyuga Neji and Tenten.
Tenten's Flying Thunder God amazed the ninjas of Konoha, and another flash of Konoha made Sarutobi Hiruzen uneasy.
The main reason is that Tenten listens to Hiruzen Sarutobi on the surface, but something is really going on. Tenten is very individual and has independent thinking, which is beyond the scope of the will of fire. Hiruzen Sarutobi seems to have seen Madara Uchiha who talks about the unification of the ninja world all day long.
.
The main reason is that Tiantian is not just talking in vain. Tiantian is smart and has detached thoughts. He often wakes people up with just one or two sentences. His words may seem to be unruly, but they actually have an inescapable meaning.
Many ninjas interacted with Tenten and were impressed by Tenten, thinking that Tenten had the qualifications to be Hokage.
Sarutobi Hiruzen's scalp felt numb.
Even before I died, a little girl was thinking about the throne.
And Hyuga Neji's refusal made Sarutobi Hiruzen sleepless.
Especially when Hyuga Neji said that Tenten and Rock Lee needed to accumulate some experience and were not in a hurry to take the Chunin Exam, it made Sarutobi Hiruzen sigh even more.
Sarutobi Hiruzen always felt that Hyuga Neji would explode like a bomb sooner or later, but he didn't want to mention detonating Hyuga Neji's bomb himself.
He couldn't afford the consequences of detonating Hyuga Neji's bomb.
Sarutobi Hiruzen had predicted that if the bomb of Hyuga Neji exploded while he was in power, he would definitely become the "foolish king" who would be infamous for thousands of years and ruin Konoha.
Hyuga Neji also maintained himself very well, always jumping left and right in the line of fire that almost drove Sarutobi Hiruzen crazy, making Sarutobi Hiruzen uneasy.
The most important thing is that there is no civil strife in the Hyuga clan now, and the members of the Hyuga clan are still easy to listen to, as if nothing happened.
Sarutobi Hiruzen really didn't want to be the one to provoke civil strife in the Hyuga clan.
Until this day.
"Hokage-sama, this is the application form for the third class to take the Chunin Exam." Matt Kai handed the application form for the Chunin Exam to Sarutobi Hiruzen in the Hokage's office.
As long as anything related to Hyuga Neji, Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to throw it aside. He wanted to keep him cold, preferably until he died.
But as the Hokage of Konoha Hidden Village, it is obvious that he cannot.
Sarutobi Hiruzen kindly took the application form from Matt Kai, and wanted to say: Not allowed, I don't allow it!
But what happens after it is not allowed?
However, Sarutobi Hiruzen would not dare to easily make a decision on Hyuga Neji's behavior without discussing his matters with Hyuga Neji in detail.
Because Hyuga Neji has the strength and qualifications.
The most important thing is... Hiruzen Sarutobi and Hinata Hinata cooperated. Hinata Hinata used the caged bird curse seal in the Hyuga clan's territory to test who was Hyuga Neji's person. It turned out that more than half of the Hyuga clan's members
Although the members of the branch family had the Cage Bird curse mark on their foreheads, the Cage Bird curse was cast by themselves and there was no response.
Half of the members of the Hyuga family branch are already members of Hyuga Neji, which makes Hyuga Hizashi extremely heavy.
Right under his nose, he had no idea when half of the Hyuga branch members were no longer under his control.
Although on the surface he was still respectful to him, the head of the Hyuga clan, under that respect, Hyuga Hizashi felt that he was out of control and that he was insulted as a clown in his heart.
In this case, Sarutobi Hiruzen had to deal with Hyuga Neji's problem even more carefully.
"Kai, why did Class 3 choose this time to take the Chunin Exam? They should have had the strength to become Chunin last year, right?" Sarutobi Hiruzen kindly took the Chunin Exam application form and couldn't help but think of Hinata Hizashi.
It is determined that half of the caged bird curse seals are released after the separation, which means that more than half of the Byakugan is uncontrollable.
Sarutobi Hiruzen now has to be more cautious when dealing with Hyuga Neji. Otherwise, if he is not careful, he will directly lead someone away. No matter which village, they will treat the Byakugan as an honored guest, or they will directly kill people to capture the Byakugan. This pair
It was an unbearable pain for Konoha.
"What can I use to bind Hyuga Neji?" Sarutobi Hiruzen kept thinking in his mind, and began to consider preparing to transfer some interests and power and tie Hyuga Neji to the big ship of Konoha.
But he was afraid that Hyuga Neji would be too greedy, so Sarutobi Hiruzen also had a headache.
"It's like this, Hokage-sama, Neji thinks that Tiantian and Xiao Li need to accumulate a year of experience and thinking before they can be qualified to become chuunin. I also think Neji is right, there was no such thing as the last year.
They are taking the Chunin Examination." Matt Kai said seriously.
Chuunin are qualified to lead a team. If they don't have certain experience, they can easily lead the team into a dead end.
"Hmm..." Hiruzen Sarutobi pondered, rubbing his fingers on the application form to join the Chunin.
If it weren't for Byakugan's lack of genjutsu ability, Sarutobi Hiruzen would have doubted whether Hyuga Neji knew that the jinchuriki was also participating in this chunin, and whether he wanted to take action against the jinchuriki.
Just before Matt Kai submitted the application forms for Class 3 to participate in the Chunin Exam, the application forms for Class 7 led by Kakashi Hatake and Class 8 led by Kurenai Yuhi to participate in the Chunin Exam were handed over to him at the same time.
Not that the time was very close, even Sarutobi Hiruzen suspected that Hyuga Neji was watching the jinchuriki to take the chunin exam.
Sarutobi Hiruzen felt his head hurt, and everything involving Hyuga Neji was in a mess.
It was really exhausting for him to balance Hyuga Neji's ambitions and stabilize him from causing chaos in the Hyuga clan.
"Permission." Sarutobi Hiruzen picked up the Great Seal of Hokage and stamped it. He decided to quickly let Hyuga Neci transition to chuunin and become a jounin. He would take a position in Konoha for Hyuga Neci and not let Hyuga Neji take it.
If you are too idle, you will get into trouble.
"Thank you, Hokage-sama." Matt Kai bowed happily and left the Hokage's office.
