Neji looked at the mere three or five scrolls in his hand, a little disappointed, but he also understood.
The Hyuga clan was a big family, and the rules were very strict. Basically, everything was in the hands of the Main family, and the Branch family people usually didn't have much stock.
"Just these scrolls, when will I ever achieve anything with my Ninjutsu at this rate?" Neji said speechlessly.
"System, open the attribute panel," Neji said in his heart.
[Host: Hyuga Neji]
[Age: 13 years old]
[Chakra Attribute: Fire, Earth, Water, Wind, Lightning]
[Bloodline Limit: Byakugan (Pure)]
[Taijutsu: Gentle Fist, Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven, Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms, Eight Trigrams Empty Palm, Gentle Step Twin Lion Fists]
[Ninjutsu: Three Body Technique (Transformation, Substitution, Clone), Fire Release Great Fireball Technique, Palm Sage Art, Summoning Technique (Tools)]
[Overall Strength: Elite Chunin]
Elite Chunin, maybe very strong, but with this bit of strength, he can't beat Gaara.
Gaara's strength is definitely at the level of a Special Jonin.
In such a short time, it's hard to improve Taijutsu. He can only start with Ninjutsu, but, alas...
He finally gathered all five Chakra types. Is he just going to stare blankly?
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Neji was stunned. Who could it be so late?
"Neji, it's me," a voice rang out from outside the door.
Hearing this voice, Neji's eyes narrowed slightly.
"What's coming will always come," Neji said, putting away the Ninjutsu scrolls on the table and getting up to leave.
Hyuga Hiashi, as a head of the family, he is undoubtedly qualified, but as a father, he also has many inappropriate things he has done.
But later, as the Main family head, he became the biggest breaker of Hyuga clan rules.
At least, that's how Neji thinks.
However, Neji makes no comment on this. The clan rules have good and bad sides. As the saying goes:
Don't advise others to be kind if you haven't been in their shoes.
"What's the matter?" Neji asked, looking at the person outside the door.
Hyuga Hiashi looked at Neji in front of him, wanting to speak but hesitating, hesitating but wanting to speak.
After a long silence, Hyuga Hiashi finally said, "Can you give me some time?"
"I'm here to tell you about the truth of that day."
"The truth?!"
Neji was a little surprised. He thought Hyuga Hiashi was here for Hinata and Hanabi's sake. He didn't expect him to bring this up.
Probably because he heard something from Hinata and Hanabi.
But, that's good too. He can take this opportunity to get something from him.
"Please come in," Neji said.
After that, Hyuga Hiashi took out a scroll from his arms: "The truth about your father's murder back then is inside."
Neji just glanced at it faintly and put it aside.
He knew these things very well. Although it was because of the orders of those higher-ups, it was also Hyuga Hizashi's own will, to protect his respected older brother.
So, Neji wouldn't say anything about this, especially since he is no longer the Neji he used to be.
Hyuga Hiashi thought Neji would have very intense emotional fluctuations, but he found that Neji was very indifferent.
"Neji, you..." Hyuga Hiashi asked with some doubt.
"Hiashi-sama, the deceased is gone, I have learned to look forward," Neji said righteously.
But he immediately changed the subject: "However, if you feel sorry for me, then give me some help."
For some reason, seeing Neji like this, Hyuga Hiashi inexplicably had a feeling of a lamb entering a tiger's mouth.
But in order to make up for his guilt towards Neji, he gritted his teeth and asked, "What?"
"Let me see the family's Ninjutsu scrolls."
Hyuga Hiashi: "???"
That's it? He had already prepared to bleed a lot, and even considered giving away his daughter in marriage, but Neji just made such a request.
This made Hyuga Hiashi's unchanging zombie face couldn't help but change a little.
Just like that, Neji got Hyuga Hiashi's permission as he wished. He could freely browse the Ninjutsu scrolls collected in the family.
After sending away Hyuga Hiashi, Neji smiled slightly: "Taking the Hyuga clan for my own use is not a bad choice."
In this world, it is more important to have a strong force than to be strong alone.
Think about Uchiha Madara and Ootsuki Kaguya, no matter how strong a person is, they can't resist a group of people.
The next morning, Neji was still sleeping in bed, but there was already a knock on the door.
"Who is it so early in the morning?" Neji mumbled, opening his eyes in a daze.
After getting Hyuga Hiashi's permission last night, he couldn't wait to take some Ninjutsu to practice, and he practiced until the middle of the night before falling asleep groggily.
At most, he only slept for four hours, but the progress was also obvious. Taking the Dragon Fire Technique as an example, he has already developed some prototype of it.
Knock, knock, knock...
The knocking continued, and Neji put on his clothes groggily and opened the door.
Today, Hinata was very nervous. After going to the training ground early, she received the news that she would participate in the Chunin exam.
Although she wanted to refuse, Yuhi Kurenai said with a smile: "The exam requires a group of three. If Hinata doesn't participate, Shino and Kiba will also have to withdraw."
Finally, under Kurenai's patient guidance, the overly simple Hinata was immediately tricked. Without knowing what she said, she agreed to bring Neji.
"Hinata, good luck. The future of Team Eight depends on you," Kurenai encouraged.
Looking at Kurenai's expectant eyes, Hinata clenched her fists and showed a firm but naive face:
"I will definitely work hard."
But when she came to Neji's door, the previous bold words immediately disappeared, leaving only the girl's endless shyness.
Thinking about it carefully, it was her first time coming to a boy's house alone.
"So shy..."
Even though she received Kurenai's beautiful words and inexplicably shouldered a difficult task, Hinata only dared to gently pat the door, not daring to speak.
"Creak."
The door opened, and what came into view was Brother Neji's slightly tired face and the mess all over the ground.
"Brother Neji, what are you..."
"Oh, it's Hinata."
Before Hinata could finish speaking, Neji also spoke. Seeing Hinata's stunned expression, he suddenly glanced around himself.
It was all caused by rummaging through boxes and cabinets to find Ninjutsu last night, and he hadn't had time to clean it up yet.
Neji subconsciously thought that Hinata saw that his house was too messy, and couldn't help scratching his head.
A girl comes to a boy's house, but finds that the boy's house is so messy. This will greatly damage the boy's image in the girl's mind.
How could Neji tolerate this, and quickly squatted down to move the things under his feet away.
"Hinata, wait a minute, I'll clean up."
"No, Brother Neji, I'll help too."
