I Punch the Tailed Beast Ball

After returning from studying that night, Neji lay on his bed and could not calm down for a long time.

He felt the difficulty of his current goal. He not only had to eliminate the Caged Bird and let the Hyuga branch family obtain freedom, but also eliminate the concept of the main family. From then on, there would only be the Hyuga Clan, and no such thing as branch family or main family.

None of these were simple matters, and after completing those things, he also had to think of a way to ensure the safety of the Hyuga clansmen.

Neji thought for a very long time, and in the end, only when he was truly too sleepy to keep going did he completely fall asleep.

This was also the first time Neji did not consciously wake up at seven after setting his ambition and working hard in training. Instead, he slept until his father woke him up for breakfast.

”Why didn’t you get up at seven for morning training today?” Hizashi asked casually.

Because Neji’s daily behavior was too calm and self-disciplined, Hizashi was also a little curious about his son not getting up early.

”I slept a little late yesterday, then thought about some things, so I didn’t get up,” Neji swallowed the food in his mouth and answered calmly.

”Slept late?” Hizashi originally did not think of anything, but suddenly remembered what Neji had said yesterday. A happy expression appeared on his face as he asked, ”You went yesterday? How was the result?”

Neji nodded and said, ”Just like Naruto said, Teacher Nagasawa indeed did not reject me. He only told me some things, then passed the Taijutsu to me.”

”That is truly wonderful.” Hizashi laughed happily. Being able to become Assistant Nagasawa’s disciple and study under him was simply the best thing possible.

While happy, Hizashi was afraid that Neji would become lazy in training because he had a famous teacher. Although he felt that his child was not that kind of person, he still reminded him uneasily.

”Neji, you must study well. You absolutely cannot disappoint Assistant Nagasawa’s expectations of you,” Hizashi instructed.

”I will,” Neji replied with a serious face.

”Perhaps in the future, you can become a ninja who surpasses all previous Hyuga predecessors,” Hizashi sighed.

He was a little envious of his son.

When he was that young, Second Hokage had not taken him as a disciple.

What he received was the education every Hyuga ninja would receive.

But his elder brother who was born fifteen minutes earlier was different.

Because he was of the main family, Hiashi did not even need to go to the ninja school and could directly become a ninja. He only needed to receive the Hyuga’s cultivation within the Hyuga Clan.

However, as for Chunin, that could not be done. One either had to take the Chunin Exam or rely on accumulated merits to be promoted.

Because the main family was passed down through a single line, the Hyuga Clan would of course spare no effort in cultivating the main family heir. Hizashi had been suppressed by Hiashi from childhood to adulthood.

”I will work hard to become that,” Neji nodded and said.

After that, Neji attended the Hyuga Clan’s morning Gentle Fist training course as usual, trained by himself for a while in the afternoon, and went to Nagasawa’s place after three o’clock.

When he arrived at Nagasawa’s place, Neji was surprised to discover that among the group of people he had seen when he passed on the message for Naruto before, three of them were actually Nagasawa’s disciples.

Neji’s memory was fairly good. Although he had only seen them once, he directly recognized Gaara and Sasuke.

”You should first get to know each other,” Nagasawa did not immediately begin training.

”Neji, you’re here too. I told you Uncle Nagasawa didn’t reject you,” Naruto walked up to Neji with a familiar manner and asked for credit.

”Thank you,” Neji thanked him sincerely.

He really was grateful to Naruto. If Naruto had not reminded him, perhaps he would not have been able to learn Nagasawa’s Six Powers and Breathing Style.

”Hehe, actually, it wasn’t anything big.” Seeing Neji seriously thank him, Naruto instead became a little embarrassed.

Gaara and Sasuke both looked at each other blankly, somewhat unable to figure out what had happened.

They had only seen Neji once when Neji helped Hinata pass on a message, and they had not participated in the later matters.

”You are the person who helped Hinata pass on a message before?” Sasuke thought of something.

”What person this person? His name is Hyuga Neji. Sasuke, you’re really rude.” Naruto seized the opportunity and attacked Sasuke with one sentence.

”I don’t know him. How would I know what his name is?” Sasuke retorted.

”But didn’t I already say it?” Naruto said.

”Directly calling the name of someone you don’t know would make others even more troubled, right?” Sasuke thought for a moment and said.

Naruto thought for a moment, felt that continuing to argue would not be good, and turned to ask Neji about his relationship with Hinata.

”Neji, what is your relationship with Hinata? Are you good friends? You helped pass on a message and also helped deliver a letter,” Naruto asked.

”No. I am her cousin,” Neji replied.

It was not that Neji and Hinata’s relationship was very good. Neji only felt that the matter was not too troublesome anyway, and Hinata really had no friends, so he helped.

”So you’re her brother.” Naruto was somewhat surprised.

”What is it?” Naruto’s surprise made Neji somewhat puzzled. What was there to be surprised about?

”Nothing. I just feel that you two are completely different types of people. I didn’t expect you to be siblings,” Naruto said honestly.

Although during his interactions with Neji, Naruto also felt that Neji did not talk much, Neji’s kind of not talking much was clearly different from Hinata.

Neji was the kind where it felt unnecessary to say more, so he did not talk much, while Hinata was too shy to dare speak and could not say anything.

”Getting to know each other is not just one-sidedly getting to know Neji,” Nagasawa raised an eyebrow and said.

”I almost forgot.” Naruto patted his head, then quickly introduced Sasuke and Gaara to Neji, while also mixing in some of his own private goods.

”He is Uchiha Sasuke. He’s very smug, but his person is still okay, and his strength is also okay. He is just far worse than me.”

”He is Gaara. He is very strong and is the One-Tail’s Jinchuriki. He can use a Tailed Beast’s Chakra to fight, can make good-looking sand sculptures, and is a very good person.”

Hearing Naruto crazily smear him, Sasuke could not hold back a little and could not help saying, ”What do you mean far worse than you? Didn’t I just lose to you last time? Are you going to talk about it for a whole year?”

”I will keep saying it until you defeat me,” Naruto said to Sasuke with a grin, making Sasuke furious but helpless.

Sasuke swore in his heart that if one day Naruto lost to him, he would definitely repeatedly bring it up every day at high intensity, at least once every hour.

Including but not limited to ”Eh, how did you know I defeated Naruto?” and ”The weather is really good today. No wonder I could defeat Naruto that day.”

”Actually, I’m not as good as you say, Naruto,” Gaara said, somewhat overwhelmed by the favor.

”But I’m telling the truth,” Naruto said as though it was only natural, unknowingly crazily increasing Gaara’s favorability.

Seeing the loving and relaxed atmosphere among Naruto and the three, Neji felt that he was somewhat out of place.

When training on the Hyuga Clan’s side, the atmosphere was never like this. It was much more serious and oppressive.

”All right, since you all know each other now, then begin training,” Nagasawa came out and stopped them at the right time.

So the three of them all nodded and began their own training.

Because there were not many students, Nagasawa did not have everyone learn the same things, but made them learn different things according to each person’s different characteristics.

For example, Naruto, at this stage, he mainly focused on physical training and the progress of Breathing Style.

As for Sasuke, it was somewhat different. Aside from the necessary Breathing Style, Sasuke was studying Nagasawa’s swordsmanship more deeply, then initially beginning to come into contact with Ninjutsu.

Because the paths the two would take in the future were not quite the same. Naruto had the Nine-Tails inside him. In reality, many times, he did not need too many flashy things. Great strength could make bricks fly. Rubbing a Rasengan from beginning to end was not a problem.

Nagasawa thought for a moment and said to Neji, ”You first practice the Six Powers. I will correct your problems.”

When he taught people, he liked to point things out when students made mistakes during training, then personally demonstrate and correct them. This would leave a deeper impression.

Nagasawa also did not only teach Neji. He also took care of the others’ side. It was only four people, so he did not even need one more shadow clone.

’In the future, after they all grow up, I will probably also be passed down as a legendary famous teacher of a generation.’ Looking at the four people training seriously, Nagasawa thought inwardly.

Without a doubt, all four of them were undisputed geniuses. Even if they followed the original trajectory, they would sooner or later bloom with their own brilliance.

Now that the situation had changed greatly, with Nagasawa’s teaching, the few of them would only become stronger faster than in the original plot, and also become stronger.

Adding Itachi, who was still traveling through the Land of Fire, their future achievements definitely would not be low.

The Third, who had cultivated the Three Sannin, had once been praised for a long period of time.

Nagasawa did not feel that his disciples would be worse than the Three Sannin during the Second and Third Wars in the future.

...

”Still investigating?” Hearing the situation reported by his subordinate, the expressionless face of Isshiki also showed a slight change. His brows furrowed slightly.

Recently, he discovered that there were many people investigating his organization. It was not only the people of the Hope Organization. There were also other ninja investigating.

If not for Isshiki having lived long and hidden deeply, and if the organization were not extremely low-profile, something might really have been investigated.

But he had not expected that after investigating for so long and finding nothing, those people would still investigate tirelessly, making Isshiki somewhat annoyed beyond endurance.

If they continued investigating like this, how was he supposed to carry out his new plan? That was not a plan that could be completed while hidden underneath.

But Isshiki knew that it should be Konoha that had mobilized its power, so he did not dare respond at all.

Because at this stage, he could not attack with full strength. Attacking with full strength would be suicide, and opposing Konoha would be seeking death.

Isshiki faintly breathed out, and a change appeared in his emotions, which had always been still like an ancient well. He was a little angry.

Because Isshiki had never treated the people of the Ninja World as equals to himself, but as a group of uncivilized natives, no matter what he encountered, Isshiki could treat it with a normal heart and would not become angry.

After all, those were all uncivilized natives. Feeling happy, angry, or sad because of such ignorant and humble existences would all be beneath an Otsutsuki’s bearing.

But this time, Isshiki really was a little angry.

He had only sent people to test Konoha, yet these natives were investigating his organization like mad dogs.

He had decided. After the God Tree bore fruit, he would conveniently kill all life on this planet as well, letting this planet completely become a dead star, because the natives on this planet had angered him.

At that time, the first to be destroyed would be that ninja village called Konoha.

Isshiki quickly calmed his emotions. Although he was somewhat angry, he had not completely lost his rationality. He knew that anger could not solve the problem. He had to think of a way to solve the problem.

Isshiki pressed his right hand against his forehead, revealing a thoughtful expression.

Very quickly, Isshiki thought of a method that perfectly solved this problem, perfect and fast.

That was to directly leave, to leave the Land of Rivers.

Konoha had discovered that Tsukasa was from the Land of Rivers, so they investigated this side madly. Then if he ran to another country and became a new organization, would that not be fine? Isshiki had no attachment to the Land of Rivers, although this was the place he had lived for over a thousand years.

”Bring the map over,” Isshiki instructed.

The ninja in the room quickly walked out, and soon placed the map of the Ninja World on the long table in front of Isshiki.

The ninja respectfully spread out the map.

Isshiki placed his gaze on the map, thinking about which country would be better to carry out the plan in.

Seeing the most eye-catching Land of Fire and Konoha in the middle, Isshiki first excluded the Land of Fire. First, Konoha had power capable of threatening him, and second, he now hated Konoha.

Immediately, Isshiki placed his gaze on the great nation west of the Land of Rivers, the Land of Wind. After thinking, Isshiki finally gave up.

Although Sunagakure’s situation had already been investigated, and Fourth Kazekage had nearly been killed by Sugiyama Minato, the environment of the Land of Wind did not fit his vision for carrying out the plan.

In the end, Isshiki decided to give up on the Five Great Nations, because aside from the Land of Wind, he had not attempted to learn how strong the other great nations were, so he would not take this risk.

Next was excluding the Land of Rice Fields, where that Light Ninja Village was. There was a strong person there who could instantly kill a cadre. It was not a safe place.

Isshiki placed his gaze on the Land of Rain, the only small country bordering the Land of Rivers, but finally still shook his head.

The Land of Rain’s position was too important, a place where three great nations converged. It was not a good place for stable development.

In the end, Isshiki roughly selected three small countries, namely the Land of Grass, the Land of Frost, and the Land of Hot Water.

”Bring over the materials on the Land of Grass, Land of Frost, and Land of Hot Water,” Isshiki ordered again.

He wanted to choose the place most suitable for the development of Kara Organization based on the development of these places.

After looking through the materials of the three small countries, Isshiki ultimately chose the Land of Frost.

The Land of Grass was a small country that the great nations were comparatively wary of, so it was excluded.

Recently, the Land of Hot Water had a poor relationship with its neighbor, the Land of Rice Fields. Considering the existence of the Light Ninja Village, Isshiki also excluded the Land of Hot Water.

As for the Land of Frost, its location was excellent. Only a small piece of territory bordered the Land of Fire, and it did not border any other great nation. Then, its development situation was also good, which was beneficial for the development of the Kara Organization’s plan.

After deciding, Isshiki quickly gave his instructions, then had people begin moving.
