"What are you so happy about?!"
Tsunade shouted at Neji. The whole way, Neji had been looking at her with a strange smile on his face, making her feel very uncomfortable.
And...
Tsunade narrowed her eyes, staring carefully at Neji as she asked, "You really do know the Yin Seal, don't you."
If she hadn't mentioned it, it would have been fine, but now that she did, Neji felt even more smug. He often felt grateful that his wishes came true, that he was a lucky person.
After saving Tsunade from Orochimaru and Kabuto, the system gave him the [Yin Seal] as a reward.
The Yin Seal is a Ninjutsu that allows for instant healing, enhanced attacks, and increased speed through subtle Chakra control. Skilled users can even rely on the low output and fine-tuning of Chakra within the Byakugo Seal to maintain a youthful appearance, improve bodily functions, and keep the body in peak condition.
It can continuously accumulate Chakra, greatly making up for his shortcomings. However, the most obvious sign of this technique is that a diamond-shaped mark will appear on the user's forehead, making it impossible to hide. Luckily, he has a forehead protector.
But even the best plans have flaws. Not long ago, Tsunade noticed when he activated his Yin Seal.
"Forget it, you have so many secrets anyway, it's not surprising that you know the Yin Seal."
Tsunade said helplessly. She had given in. Neji was impossible to deal with, and she couldn't get any information out of him. She just needed to know that Neji wasn't a threat to Konoha.
Seeing this harmonious scene, Shizune was very happy. Ever since her uncle and Nawaki died, Tsunade-sama had been depressed. She hadn't seen Tsunade so relaxed in a long time.
"That's great, Tsunade-sama. If Nawaki and Uncle knew you had let go of your worries, they would be very happy too." Then, Shizune turned to Neji and said, "Neji, thank you."
"No need to thank me for such a small thing." Neji waved his hand and said, "If my lover and family died in front of me, I might be even worse than you."
As he said this, Neji couldn't help but think of Sasuke. He was bound by hatred, and his life was a mess. Luckily, he had a friend like Naruto, or his life might have been truly ruined.
"Once we pass through this forest, we'll be at Konoha Village." Shizune said excitedly, as she hadn't been back in a long time.
"I wonder how Konoha is doing now."
But suddenly, she stopped talking and stopped in her tracks. Among the three, Shizune's strength had reached the level of a Jonin, so she could naturally sense the unusual things around her.
Ahead of them, there were several faint killing intents, hidden very deep. They must have been walking in the shadows for many years, mastering a certain level of stealth techniques. Even a Jonin like Shizune only caught a trace of abnormality when they were close.
However, Tsunade, as one of the Sannin, was an amazing Kage-level fighter, and had noticed it early on. As for Neji, he was even more outrageous. With his Divine Kagura Eye, these people were exposed long ago, and even their positions were clearly revealed.
"Who dares to assassinate Tsunade-sama in the Land of Fire?!" Shizune moved slightly, shielding Tsunade behind her. This was her duty. Even if Tsunade was far stronger than her, she had to protect Tsunade.
"Who else could it be besides Danzo." Neji had already activated his Byakugan, staring firmly at the people hiding not far away.
"Danzo!" Tsunade was taken aback and quickly shook her head, saying, "Although I don't approve of Danzo's methods, he is also an elder of Konoha. Although his methods are extreme, he is still doing it for the good of Konoha..."
"You only see the surface. You have been deceived by him for a long time." Neji snorted coldly and continued, "Danzo's ambition is great. He is determined to unify the ninja world. Everyone is either a tool for him or an obstacle."
It's laughable that Tsunade and the others still can't see Danzo's true colors and even want to defend him.
"Neji, Danzo has contributed to Konoha..."
"Excuse me, but I don't see where Danzo has contributed to Konoha. On the contrary, Konoha has been messed up by him, and many Kage-level masters have been taken down by him." Neji's words choked Tsunade.
On closer thought, Danzo really hasn't made any significant contributions to Konoha. Although he secretly dealt with some people who were harmful to Konoha, he also forced many of Konoha's top experts to their deaths.
If Konoha's top experts were still around, not to mention Orochimaru and Sunagakure, even if the four major ninja villages besieged Konoha, the old man wouldn't have died.
Swish, swish, swish...
At this moment, dozens of figures suddenly appeared on the branches in front of Neji and the others. Now that they had been discovered, they no longer needed to hide.
These people were not wearing headbands from any ninja village, and they were wearing black masks on their faces, making it difficult to identify them. But for Neji, there was no need to prove their identities. At this time and place, everyone but Danzo could be ruled out.
"Danzo, well done, assassinating the Fifth Hokage. You'll have a hard time dying now." Neji sneered.
"Water Style: Water Formation Pillar!"
"Wind Style: Great Breakthrough!"
Soon, these people moved, casting a large number of Ninjutsu towards Tsunade.
"Here it comes! Eight Trigrams: Mountain Crusher!"
Neji instantly appeared in front of Tsunade, gathering a large amount of Chakra in his hands, and swung forward. Suddenly, a white light flashed, turning into a solid beam that instantly destroyed the incoming Ninjutsu.
"I'll play with you guys properly."
These people are very strong. The weakest of them are at least Chunin level, and there are five Jonin leading the team. No matter where they are, they are a force to be reckoned with.
However, they chose the wrong opponent. Danzo underestimated Neji's strength and dismissed Tsunade because she suffered from hemophobia, not knowing that his information was outdated.
"Kill!"
Without any words, Neji jumped up and charged straight at them, his Chakra rolling and turning into two majestic and ferocious lion heads. The shimmering light illuminated them, carrying the force of thunder, overwhelming the mountains and seas.
"Gentle Step Twin Lion Fists!"
Neji reached out and shook, striking one of the people, instantly blasting that person apart, turning them into a bloody mist. That person didn't even have time to scream before becoming blood foam.
This was because Neji not only used the Gentle Step Twin Lion Fists, but also contained monstrous strength, which gave it such powerful destructive power.
"Your information is wrong. Today is the nightmare of your Root, but you won't see it."
Neji raised his hand and, without confronting them, rushed forward into a fierce close combat. None of the Root members were weak, but now they were being bullied by a teenager who was killing them left and right.
"Scatter!" A Jonin shouted and quickly got up to leave the spot.
Neji looked at him coldly, and a white light flashed in his hand, instantly shooting out a beam of light.
Eight Trigrams: Mountain Crusher!
The white light roared and surged, like a sharp sword that was unstoppable and had extremely powerful destructive power.
