Chapter 356

It is clear that Konoha has completely distorted history and implemented an extreme policy of keeping the people ignorant!

"Hmph... Everyone outside knows about the Nine Tailed Beasts. Ask the ninjas of Sunagakure, ask the Kazekage, ask the ninjas of other countries, even the ninjas of Kusagakure... We all know about them!"

Why is it that only Konoha doesn't know?

Don't ask me, go ask the Hokage.

"The Nine Tailed Beasts are among the most powerful creatures in the world. The Chakra of a single Nine-Tails is equivalent to that of tens of thousands of ninjas!"

In the original work.

In the Fourth Shinobi World War, Crown Prince Naruto Minato Namikaze, and the Yin-Yang Nine-Tails wrapped the Tailed Beast Cloak around tens of thousands of Allied Shinobi Forces.

"You've heard about the Nine-Tails' Attack back then, haven't you? The powerful fox that attacked the village, causing the deaths of countless ninjas, even the Fourth Hokage, was sealed inside Naruto Uzumaki! He just used that power to break through the Gentle Fist's seal, and then he keeps saying he defeated you through hard work. If you believe that, you're a fool!"

Neji: "..."

Upon hearing this...

Neji couldn't believe it; he looked at Naruto Uzumaki.

The latter looked completely bewildered, but stammered and couldn't say anything.

Because Naruto Uzumaki did indeed borrow power from Nine-Tails just now.

"As for Naruto Uzumaki's 'noble' bloodline, you're not qualified to know... I can only tell you that even your clan leader Hyuga Hiashi, or even Kakashi Hatake... no, even Asuma, the son of the Hokage, doesn't have as noble a bloodline as him!!"

Asuma: "..."

Asuma is the son of the Hokage.

Naruto Uzumaki is also the son of the Hokage.

But the value of it is as great as that of a star versus the sun.

Leaving aside those with connections like Jiraiya, his very identity as the reincarnation of the Six Paths Child 'Chakra completely overshadows everyone else.

Okay, even if we remove the Chakra of the Six Paths Child.

Just because he's the son of the Hokage.

Crown Prince Naruto is Neji Hyuga, who is considered a "lowly commoner".

"So... do you understand now? You... Hyuga Neji Hyuga, a 'lowly commoner,' have absolutely no right to be arrogant towards Naruto Uzumaki. He's just playing dumb to take advantage of others; the Second Hokage is roaming the world disguised as a loser."

Ying's words tore open the bloody reality.

It dealt a heavy blow to Neji Hyuga.

The crowd was buzzing with discussion.

Feeling anxious Neji could only turn his gaze to Guy, the teacher he respected most.

But...

He faced Neji's questioning gaze.

Guy simply shook his head.

This shows that...

"Just as I expected..."

Neji slumped on the ground, his fingers gripping the soil tightly.

Because of the excessive force, blood was squeezed out of his fingers.

Like begets like; a rat's son knows how to dig holes.

"Everything... is predetermined by fate..."

Neji gave a self-deprecating sneer.

He didn't look at Naruto Uzumaki again, but instead, hunched over and limping, he walked forlornly into the passage...

"Look at Neji Hyuga, he looks like a dog."

Neji thought to himself, feeling utterly ridiculous.

Others must think I'm a pathetic stray dog licking its wounds!

"Neji."

Hizashi Hyuga watched his son's performance with a mix of heartache and relief.

"Thank you, Miss Ying..."

Because he understood that self-deception and believing in falsehoods are the real tragedies.

In contrast, it's better to see reality clearly sooner rather than later, at least to live with a clear understanding.

And...

"After what has happened, Neji... will definitely come with me."

Hizashi Hyuga are determined.

As long as I show up later and confront my brother, Neji will definitely be able to leave Konoha with me...

280. Ying vs. the Crown Prince: Ordinary People vs. Bloodline Theory

"Father..."

Hanabi looked towards Hyuga Hiashi.

Hyuga Hiashi watched Neji leave with a serious expression.

He was considering whether or not he should hand over the handwritten note left by Hizashi to the current Neji.

Human destiny is like floating and sinking in a current that has already been predetermined, like clouds.

Still...

What can you follow the trends you choose?

Hyuga Hiashi: "Even I don't know much about it."

But now it seems...

It seems everything was predetermined.

Just like the fate of the Main Family and the Branch Family.

On the main ceremonial platform.

Rasa watched this scene. "The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki... Is this kid Konoha's Tailed Beast Weapon?"

Then, Rasa shook his head.

That alone is not enough to defeat Gaara.

Because it's obvious that Gaara is the true monster!

"You bastard!"

Just then, Naruto Uzumaki yelled at Ying.

"You say strange things that are completely incomprehensible, but... I know it makes people feel uncomfortable! I'm going to beat you!!"

"Get out of here, don't block other people's matches, Naruto Uzumaki."

Ying simply said something coldly, then turned and walked towards the corridor.

This behavior further enraged Naruto.

He yelled and vowed to teach Ying a lesson.

Urged on by Genma Shiranui.

Only then did he leave.

The controversy Naruto Uzumaki did not generate a particularly strong reaction.

Everyone assumed that this was simply Konoha giving more training to its Jinchūriki.

This is quite normal in any country.

Next, the fourth match began.

"Ying vs. Darui"

I abstain.

Darui chose to abstain.

The main objective has been achieved.

Now, let's just sit quietly in the stands and watch the rest of the match.

Time flies.

The first round of the competition is drawing to a close.

Ajisai vs. White.

Both players forfeited, ceasing their fight because it was pointless.

In the end... only Sasuke didn't come.

His opponent was Fu, the Seven-Tails Jinchūriki.

Just as the audience was getting impatient...

Sasuke and Kakashi stood there gracefully.

Then, using moves copied from Lee, or perhaps Guy, he easily defeated Fu.

Sasuke, leaving her unable to react immediately.

Because this was something no one had anticipated.

Sasuke won by using intelligence to kill his opponent on their first meeting.

The team successfully advanced to the second round.

Examiner Genma Shiranui announced the name: "Tsuchigumo Hotaru... Yes... Naruto Uzumaki!"

This round of competition unfolded without major incident, thanks to various arrangements made by the Akito.

One of Akito's plans was to have Hotaru defeat Naruto Uzumaki during the Chunin Ninja Exams.

Now it seems...

The plan is already half successful.

"Even if you're beautiful and cute, I'm still going to beat you to a pulp!" Naruto Uzumaki raised his fist and declared his statement.

"Ha, you talk too much nonsense."

Ying gave a cold laugh, her face full of disdain.

Ordinary people vs. the theory of bloodline.

Collective human wisdom vs. ancestral lineage.

Who will win and who will lose?

The Akito... waits quietly through the shadows.

Without unleashing the Nine-Tails, Naruto Uzumaki would have absolutely no chance against Hotaru.

"But he is Crown Prince Naruto, the ultimate embodiment of the theory of bloodline. Ying, do not underestimate him."

Akito's calm voice echoed in Ying's mind.

Oboro, Kagari, and Mubi had underestimated the main characters in the Forest of Death.

That's how he was finally taken down.

The concept of a chosen one is like a protagonist in a fantasy novel.
