"Hahaha!"

After listening to Konoha Maru saying these absurd words, Neji laughed happily.

"It's so interesting..."

Neji yawned and couldn't help but feel a little sleepy, but Konohamaru's conspiracy theories were really one after another, which made him feel very novel.

"What are you doing? Hmph..."

Konoha Maru became vigilant, thinking that Neji was going to brainwash him again, so he subconsciously resisted.

And Neji just glanced at him disdainfully and said, "Sleep and sleep!"

"Hey! You... don't! Tell me!"

What a trick to play hard to catch, and teach people to drill in by themselves!

Konoha Maru came up with curiosity, and didn't care whether he would be deceived or not, just wanted to make Neji feel clean.

Ningji sighed and explained simply: "You are very careful, you can guess those things closely, but now the times have passed, so there are some things that don't need to go into depth. But as the grandson of the three generations of Hokage, I miss you. Who is Grandpa, I should have to tell you."

Neji's face also became serious.

But Neji's seriousness was not a black face.

Rather, it seems to be a tribute, as if telling the story of a great person.

"I didn't use the third Hokage, your grandfather... No, he's not just your grandfather, he has always been the third Hokage of Konoha Village. In the past, I had the same opinion as you, these high-level figures are just exploiting relationships. So, in order to increase my probability of achieving my goal, I naturally put forward a plan that is beneficial to your grandfather. That is, I will fight Orochimaru in person. But..."

Neji explained indifferently, "However, he refused."

Konoha Maru was a little surprised.

Ningci continued: "The safety of the village was handed over to me. He said that Orochimaru was his disciple and he had to deal with it himself. In order to destroy Orochimaru's future plan, he would not hesitate to sacrifice his life, or at least destroy it. Orochimaru's hands. To be honest, your grandfather's death was not in my plan. He could have survived because I was there. But he didn't, and he finally chose to be the hero himself. He fell as the third Hokage. In front of my former lover."

Neji's words were a little lonely.

"So, you are his grandson, and you should understand it even more. Like Asma, he is not someone who abandons you and ignores you. He is the real hero of this village. That's why I brought you out, you... There are more possibilities than fireworks."

"More possibilities?"

Konoha Maru didn't understand.

He quickly asked, "Why? Why do I have more possibilities?"

Neji explained: "Your master Uzumaki Naruto, isn't that the case? Children who grow up alone are more likely to understand the meaning of heroes. Isn't it?"

Neji turned around, and at this moment, Konoha Maru looked at the snow-white slender back in front of her, and for the first time gave out her heartfelt admiration.

Is this the person that even Naruto admires? There is no pretentiousness, all words are so real, close to everything he sees and touches!

"It's just, no matter what you say, the Hinata clan did take over Konoha Village, didn't they? Didn't you also achieve your own goals?"

Konoha Maru frowned, protruding again.

Neji only glanced at him and said, "If the Hinata clan only cared about themselves, they would not pursue such things as Hokage. On the other hand, if the Hinata clan wanted to completely control the village, then the position of Hokage would never be handed over. Compromised."

"This village is a village cultivated by generations of people like your grandfather. No one can easily take it away. All we have to do is protect it."

"how to prove?"

"Ok?"

"How to prove... Did you voluntarily give up control of Konoha Village, or did you simply fail to do so!?"

This kid still doubted himself, and Neji felt a little impatient.

But he just showed a charming smile, and he couldn't help but decide in his heart, just sleep with him in the cold air tonight, this kid is really annoying, he talks so dry, and there are so many things!

Neji just said casually; "How to prove it? You took so much information from the Hokage building alive, this is the best proof."

After Neji finished speaking, he turned around and left.

And Konoha Maru, who was sitting on the spot, was stunned for a long time.

That's right, with such a huge disparity in strength, if he was targeted, he would have been a different person long ago.

How could he really rely on his own cleverness to survive until today?

Besides, everything after that is indeed his own speculation.

…

That night, the cold wind howled.

The next day, early in the morning, the sun was shining brightly.

With a "click", Neji threw the bamboo tube filled with water to Konoha Maru and drank it himself.

After a moment of hesitation, Konoha Maru drank it.

The two hit the road again.

Along the way, Neji took over almost all the work of reconnaissance, pathfinding, designating travel plans, and mission guidance, while Konoha Maru was only responsible for listening in.

All of this made Konoha Maru begin to officially start the person who he used to be somewhat hostile to.

So powerful and excellent, it seems that Naruto is really not touting, this person really has qualities that are difficult to detect in other people.

"and many more."

Finally, in a woodland area, Neji stopped.

"What's wrong?"

Konoha Maru's reconnaissance ability is naturally far below Neji, and the command of the team is also in Neji's hands.

Ningci said, "It's nothing, just some ordinary people."

Neji frowned slightly and didn't care.

But Konoha Maru asked, "Eh? What the **** is going on? You seem to be very clear, is the Joinin as arbitrary as you? Shouldn't we share information as teammates?"

Seeing Neji's helpless appearance, Konoha Maru said, "I told you that kind of thing yesterday, are you going to hide any information from me? Besides, the command is in your hands anyway. , I won't disobey your orders or anything..."

Neji shrugged and said, "Okay, from the ten o'clock direction here, there are people fighting at about 700 meters, but it should be bandits in the mountains or the like, and the people who loot should be people living nearby. It has nothing to do with us ninjas."

"what!?"

"Let's go quickly. Today's journey is very smooth. If there are no problems, we may be able to reach Yanyin Village before dark..."

Before Neji could speak, Konoha Maru clenched her fists and roared, "What are you thinking!? Really!"

Neji was startled, and Konoha Maru said righteously, "How can you just stand by? My master is a hero who saves this world!"

After saying that, Konoha Maru immediately turned around and ran!
