Chapter 505

Neji murmured something as he ran.

"Finally... I'm back..."

His chilling tone suppressed his emotions, and his handsome face instantly lost its mask of indifference.

The wind blew past my ear.

But I couldn't feel any warmth at all.

"The Main Family..."

A flame of hatred rose in his heart, as if he wanted to tear his enemy apart.

Just then, several Konoha Ninja suddenly appeared and blocked Neji's way.

In fact...

Neji had completely "seen" their hiding place.

Therefore, Neji was not at all surprised to see them appear.

Who are you?!

They noticed that Neji's forehead was smooth and free of Forehead Protector.

There were no markings indicating affiliation on their bodies.

"I have no interest in talking to dead people."

As Neji shouted, he collided with the three people coming from the opposite direction.

Gentle Fist!

His incredibly fluid Taijutsu allowed him to block three Kunai.

The two sides, in the instant they brush past each other.

Neji pointed out two more fingers.

Dark Chakra seeped into their bodies, instantly shattering their brains.

The third person also met a tragic end.

Neji kicked him in the abdomen.

The Chakra released from the soles of the feet also penetrated the body, shattering the opponent's internal organs.

The three bodies fell from the sky.

"..."

The three pursuers Guy, Lee, and Tenten, immediately stopped.

After examining the three bodies, Guy shook his head.

Lee and Tenten's expressions also turned grim.

"Neji... he..." Lee looked incredulous; Neji would kill his former comrade.

These three people were clearly dead.

Neji's actions will definitively confirm his status as a rogue ninja.

"Li, Tenten."

Guy composed himself, becoming more solemn than ever before.

"You know what this means, right?"

"..."

The two disciples remained silent, but still nodded.

"You all understand why Neji did this, right?" Guy asked again.

"It's because of the Main Family and the Branch Family," Lee replied immediately.

"That's not all." Tenten shook her head. "Neji now killed his former comrades, which means he's not just returning as an avenger..."

What does that mean?

Lee didn't understand.

"This means that Neji has fully accepted the Amegakure Emperor's ideology."

Guy said solemnly.

Only in this way can we explain why Neji became like this.

"Let's catch up with them right away and have a good talk with Neji."

Guy made up his mind, immediately got up, and chased after him...

"Brother."

In the homeland of the Hyuga Clan.

Hizashi Hyuga faced off against Hyuga Hiashi.

That's not all...

Hyuga Hinata, Hyuga Hanabi, Hyuga Ko, the elders of the Main Family... these are the Main Family.

Hyuga Iroha, Hyuga Tokuma... these Branch Family were also present.

They saw that Hizashi Hyuga was still alive.

Everyone was visibly shocked.

Because everyone thought that Hizashi Hyuga was dead.

"What... are you surprised, brother?"

Hizashi Hyuga at his older brother's appearance.

Hyuga Hiashi noticed that Hizashi Hyuga Amegakure was wearing Forehead Protector from Amegakure.

"You... became a ninja of Amegakure?!"

Hyuga Hiashi realized the seriousness of the situation.

This act of defecting to Amegakure will undoubtedly implicate the Hyuga Clan of Konoha.

"Both the ninja world and the Hyuga need a complete overhaul..."

Hizashi Hyuga assumed a fighting stance, facing the crowd.

"Everyone... the destruction of Konoha is inevitable. I urge you... to join Amegakure..."

"Absurd!"

The white-haired Main Family was the first to object.

"Hizashi! Kneel down right now!!"

"Kneel down?"

Hizashi Hyuga simply found it amusing.

"Why should I kneel down like I used to? What have I done wrong? Just because I was born a little later than my brother, does that mean I have to become Branch Family?"

A mocking smile played on Hizashi Hyuga's lips.

It only made everyone feel unfamiliar.

"Caged Bird!!"

Enraged, the Main Family immediately raised his right hand and cast the Caged Bird Seal.

426. Tsunade, I'm going to turn you into Dark Weapon!

This is the most severe punishment for the Hyuga Clan.

The Caged Bird Seal represents the existence of those who punish and hinder the division of the Branch Family.

However.

Aside from slightly frowning, Hizashi Hyuga showed no other reaction.

"This...!"

The Main Family was greatly surprised; he had clearly sensed the Caged Bird Seal Hizashi's forehead.

Why... did the attack fail?

"It's not that it's ineffective, but rather that it's been circumvented through certain means."

Hizashi Hyuga shook his head.

Besides the "Evil Sealing Method" suppressing the Caged Bird Seal.

The Dark Medical Ninjutsu modified the body, reducing Hizashi Hyuga's brain pain and weakening the impact of vital organs on the body, etc.

In this way, facing the activation of the Cursed Seal is like a katana cutting through the wind.

"Ladies and gentlemen, to be honest, His Majesty the Emperor has found a way to suppress the Caged Bird Seal."

Hizashi Hyuga announced this bombshell news to the stunned Branch Family.

"If you all come with me to Amegakure, you can escape the fate of the Branch Family and soar freely in the vast sky..."

One stone stirs up a thousand waves.

A heated whisper erupted from the crowd.

The Branch Family looked at each other in disbelief.

As Hizashi Hyuga pulled up the Forehead Protector on his forehead...

The "Caged Bird Seal" was clearly visible on his forehead.

However... in addition to the Cursed Seal, there is also an Evil Sealing Method for suppression.

"Look, everyone, this is the evidence."

Hizashi Hyuga said.

"Currently... the medical team at Amegakure is continuing its active research into medical technology. Although they haven't achieved absolute freedom, we've now reached the second stage..."

Hizashi Hyuga is the first stage.

The initial treatment has resolved the pain and death associated with the Caged Bird Seal syndrome.

"My son... Neji, at the cost of burning his Byakugan, has had the Caged Bird Seal removed from his forehead. You can all see that by observing with your Byakugan..."

To get rid of the Caged Bird at the cost of losing Byakugan?!

Hyuga Hiashi's expression changed drastically.

Everyone activated their Byakugan and immediately began searching for Neji's whereabouts.

At this moment, Neji had already led Guy's team towards the edge of Konoha, and it was clear that the battle would take place in the outskirts.

"I see him! It's Neji!"

"The Caged Bird Seal on his forehead is definitely gone!!"

The gasps of surprise from the Branch Family rose and fell.

"Everyone, although the second phase is not perfect yet, it is already an important step forward."

Hizashi Hyuga raised his voice.

"I believe that one day, we will be able to completely remove Caged Bird without causing them harm..."

The good news announced by Hizashi Hyuga caused a sensation among the crowd.

Not everyone enjoys being a slave.

Even if they are instilled with the idea of loyalty to the Main Family from a young age.

The ability to soar freely is also part of human nature.

Upon hearing this news, Hyuga Hiashi felt as if he were about to collapse.
