"Neji." Hinata said to Neji.
"What is it? Hinata?"
Neji couldn't help but frown when he saw her anxious look.
"I... I..."
Hinata suddenly remembered Shiki, and the originally intimidating Neji seemed to transform into a carrot.
She gradually loosened her clenched hands, took a deep breath, and said, "I want to talk to you."
Neji was a little surprised but soon snorted coldly.
He knew what Hinata wanted to discuss.
It was nothing more than the ridiculous unity between the main family and the branch family.
How was that possible?
From the moment you were branded as a caged bird, your fate was already sealed.
"We have nothing to talk about."
Neji said expressionlessly, "Hinata, drown in your ideals, because this is reality."
"Niji..."
Hinata opened her mouth.
But Neji didn't give her a chance to speak and turned away to his seat.
He had come today to watch the game.
Hinata looked at his back and stood there in a daze.
If Shiki-kun was here, what would he do?
"Hinata."
The sudden voice made Hinata turn her head subconsciously.
It was Ino, who was waving at her.
In addition, there were Sakura, Chouji, and Kiba.
As for Shikamaru, he was lying at home, too lazy to move.
Hinata felt warmth in her heart, and the gloom from just moments ago was swept away.
She walked forward and sat next to Ino.
Outside the venue, Morino clenched his fists with a look of jealousy.
The excitement was theirs; he had nothing.
It was all because of that damn question 10!
What's so important about companions?
Morino took a deep breath.
It was not time to give up yet.
He recalled when he lost the qualification for the Chunin Exam because of the tenth question, and the man appeared in front of him.
"Idate, do you want power?"
A kind smile appeared on Aoi's face.
"Of course!"
Morino clenched his fists, his face full of resentment.
"The Sealed Book filled with forbidden techniques, the Second Hokage's Thunder God Sword—I've placed everything on this map. Go get it!"
Aoi took out a scroll and said.
"What is the price?"
Morino's heart was shocked, and he couldn't help but hesitate.
"Escape from Konoha."
Aoi said proudly, "Don't worry; I have already contacted the leader of the Hidden Rain Village, Hanzo, who is known as the demigod."
Salamander Hanzo!
He was a peerless warrior who could defeat three Konoha ninjas alone!
With his help, what would happen to Konoha Village?
Thinking of this, Morino grasped the scroll as if he were grasping the future.
He wanted to become stronger!
When the time came, he would return and slap those who looked down on him.
The memories ended.
Morino became resolute.
He turned and headed toward the Hokage building.
Hiruzen and many high-ranking officials would participate in the Chunin Exam.
The Hokage Building was now emptier than ever.
But getting in was not easy.
Because of the dark side.
Morino came to a corner.
He quickly formed seals.
With a bang.
His body and appearance underwent tremendous changes.
This was the image of his brother.
The reason why Kui looked for him was because of his brother.
In the original work, Ibiki appeared when Naruto and others participated in the Chunin Exam.
He was the examiner of the first written test and the captain of Konoha's interrogation department.
But now he was a member of the Anbu.
Due to his outstanding work ability, he was highly praised and trusted by people like Hiruzen.
Morino managed to get into the Hokage Building without any trouble.
He followed the map given by Aoi and came to a room.
In the center was a sword, or to be more precise, the hilt.
It went really smoothly.
Morino smiled, wanting to open the champagne.
Is this the heavily guarded Hokage Building? Nothing more than that!
He accepted the Thunder God's Sword with a smile!
Morino stepped forward and took the hilt.
The next step was to go to the Hokage's office, where the Sealed Book was hidden.
It would be more dangerous there.
But now, Morino was feeling extremely confident, so he was not afraid at all.
He left the room and went upstairs.
"Ibiki-senpai?"
The sudden voice made his body tremble.
"What's the matter?"
Morino imitated his older brother's tone.
Combined with his ferocious expression, he didn't seem like a good person.
"Ibiki-senpai, didn't you go to the Chunin Exam venue with Hokage-sama?"
The young ninja asked, a confused look on his face.
"Are you teaching me how to do things?"
Morino's face darkened as he asked.
"I dare not."
The young ninja quickly waved his hands.
Morino walked into the Hokage's office without even looking at him.
He couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief and then began to look for the Sealed Book.
But when he opened the drawer, he suddenly touched something.
Morino was stunned.
'It's a trap!'
Hiruzen would definitely notice something.
Morino didn't have time to think and hurriedly left the Hokage's office.
That was the strongest Hokage.
A great fear enveloped him.
He headed north toward the place where he had agreed to meet with Aoi.
But what he didn't know was that above his head, several extremely tiny insects were following him.
Forest of Death.
Shiwei and Shiki stood on the tree trunk, their bodies hidden by the dense leaves.
Just then, a black shadow flashed by quickly.
It was Ibiki.
"Here."
Shiwei pointed out.
Ibiki leaped up the tree.
When he saw Shiki, he couldn't help but frown.
"Master Shiki."
Ibiki said flatly, "I hope what you said is important enough."
He had come here at the risk of being noticed by Hiruzen.
What he saw was a six-year-old kid.
"Your brother stole the Thunder God Sword."
Shiwei said directly.
"What did you say?"
Ibiki's eyes narrowed as he said, "That's absolutely impossible."
The Thunder God Sword was a ninja tool of the Second Hokage.
If this were true, then perhaps the whole family would suffer.
Because it would be disloyal to the Hokage.
"You'll find out soon enough."
