When does a chess player need to consider the feelings of the pieces?

The Hokage factions and the Hyuga clan deliberately concealed the matter of Byakugan Byakugan infants being stolen to Kumogakure, and even in Konohagakure, only a few high-level officials still remember Neji.

A small village like Kusagakure knows nothing about Neji.

Therefore, when the Kusagakure Jonin saw the Byakugan, he concluded that Neji was from Konohagakure and felt uneasy.

He never expected that the person infiltrating the village would be a Konohagakure ninja.

The situation is a bit tricky.

It is obviously inappropriate to let him go like this.

What is the Hyuga ninja's intention in sneaking into Kusagakure, it must be clarified.

Only by understanding the other party's purpose can the next decision be made.

A sharp glint flashed in the eyes of the Kusagakure Jonin, and he tentatively asked, "Kusagakure and Konohagakure are allies, is this how the Fourth Hokage treats allies?"

"Allies? It seems your Kusagakure hasn't recognized its position."

"You are not allies of Konohagakure at all, you are just pawns used to contain Iwagakure... pawns that can be discarded at any time."

"When does a chess player need to consider the feelings of a pawn?"

Neji responded with a hoarse voice.

The contemptuous words made the veins on the Kusagakure Jonin's forehead bulge, and he suddenly raised his head with an angry expression.

Neji ignored it and continued to perform: "I am under the order of the Hokage to come here to find something."

"..."

Hearing this, the Kusagakure Jonin, whose heart was filled with anger, couldn't help but gasp.

If there is anything in Kusagakure that Konohagakure would value, it is probably the Box of Paradise left by their predecessors.

Suppressing his anger, the Kusagakure Jonin's face was calm.

But in Neji's Byakugan vision, the chakra in his body was already boiling and could erupt at any time.

"You are trapped, and you are still talking nonsense here, do you really think we dare not kill you?"

"It seems this is your answer."

Neji spread his legs slightly and adopted a Gentle Fist stance.

The other party had already guessed that someone would infiltrate tonight and had set up an ambush in advance.

In other words, these dozens of people are all that Kusagakure relies on.

Neji felt he could fight them.

The surrounding Kusagakure ninja saw that Neji, who was trapped, not only did not surrender, but instead tried to attack them, and immediately looked at each other in dismay.

The Kusagakure Jonin laughed in anger.

He is a sensory ninja and has already keenly captured the amount of chakra in Neji's body.

It is probably at the level of a Special Jonin, at most a regular Jonin.

Although the Hyuga clan is a famous clan in the ninja world, their individual combat power is not as good as the strongest Uchiha, only slightly stronger than ordinary ninjas.

The other party guessed correctly, these dozens of people around him are all the power he can mobilize.

One elite Jonin, three Special Jonin, and the rest are Chunin.

This force is sure to take down a Hyuga ninja.

The Kusagakure Jonin realized that there was only one way to deal with this matter: kill him and silence him, so he didn't say anything more.

He gave the surrounding Kusagakure ninja a look with a blank expression.

"Underestimating our Kusagakure so much, it's simply too arrogant."

"Then let the arrogant Konohagakure ninja see the power of Kusagakure."

"We will accept the Byakugan that has been delivered to our door."

After receiving the order, a group of Kusagakure ninja rushed towards Neji.

Neji took a deep breath and performed the Gentle Fist technique of the Hyuga clan, which is famous throughout the ninja world.

In his vision, an Eight Trigrams diagram slowly unfolded and quickly spread outward.

The Eight Trigrams diagram is not a real object, it does not exist, only the Hyuga clan who are proficient in the Secret Techniques of Gentle Fist can simulate it in their hearts.

The size of the Eight Trigrams diagram represents the attack range. The Eight Trigrams diagram of ordinary Hyuga clan members is about twice the length of their arm span.

Powerful Hyuga ninjas can use Air Palm within the Eight Trigrams diagram, with a larger attack range.

The diameter of Neji's Eight Trigrams diagram is equal to the attack range of his God Vacuum Attack, about ten meters.

These Kusagakure ninja can be regarded as the elite of half the village, and they fight very bravely, rushing into the Eight Trigrams diagram without regard for their lives.

However, before they could get within three meters of Neji, they were knocked away by one God Vacuum Attack after another, their internal organs shattered.

Neji used the God Vacuum Attack to the fullest, defending his body tightly. No matter how many Kusagakure ninja rushed over, they were all knocked away beyond three meters.

The first wave of attack left one Special Jonin seriously injured and more than ten Chunin dead on the spot.

At this point, Neji still had eighty percent of his chakra remaining.

The Kusagakure ninja realized they couldn't defeat Neji with taijutsu, so they immediately changed tactics and released long-range ninjutsu.

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"

The two Special Jonin exchanged a tacit glance and simultaneously cast fire and wind ninjutsu.

The gale pierced through the Great Fireball Technique, forming dozens of flaming wind bullets that rained down on Neji.

Watching the incoming flaming wind bullets, Neji took a deep breath and instantly opened all the pressure points in his body, releasing twenty percent of his chakra to form a dense chakra shield that spun rapidly like a top.

The Hyuga clan's main family's secret technique, known as Revolving Heaven, possesses absolute defense.

Its power depends on the strength of the chakra.

Boom boom boom!!!

Accompanied by a series of dull impacts, the flaming wind bullets slammed into the Revolving Heaven shield.

A dozen seconds later, when the dust settled, Neji's figure had disappeared from the field.

The Kusagakure elite Jonin first frowned, then looked at a Special Jonin and shouted, "Be careful, he's below!"

Sizzle!

The ground beneath the Special Jonin's feet suddenly exploded.

As the sound of thunder rang out, the Special Jonin's chin was struck by Chidori, and his head exploded like a watermelon.

Brain matter mixed with blood splattered everywhere, the extremely bloody scene stimulating the minds of the ninja present.

"Bastard."

The other Special Jonin's eyes turned red instantly upon seeing this.

His chakra was mobilized to the extreme, and the enraged Kusagakure ninja leaped up and quickly sprinted towards Neji.

Neji dodged nimbly, engaging the opponent in a fierce battle, two afterimages flashing back and forth across the square.

Kusagakure likes to sell allied intelligence, use information gaps to seek profits, and also likes to "learn" ninjutsu from other countries.

However, the taijutsu used by this Special Jonin was a unique Kusagakure taijutsu called Flesh-Breaking Palm.

Combining palm techniques and footwork, it was as swift as the wind and extremely agile.

Neji intentionally integrated the Kusagakure-style taijutsu into his God Vacuum Attack system, watching with his Byakugan for a while, recording the flow of chakra within the Kusagakure ninja's body in his mind.

The Kusagakure elite Jonin, while rushing towards Neji, shouted loudly, "Kobayashi-kun, retreat quickly, you are no match for him."

Hearing this, violent lightning suddenly erupted from Neji's empty palm, striking the Special Jonin's shoulder.

The next moment, a piercing sound of air being torn apart rang out behind Neji, like the wail of a ghost.

"Wind Release: Wind Cutter Technique!"

Neji's hair stood on end, and he instantly entered Lightning Release Chakra Mode, shifting to the side with all his might, as a half-meter-long arc of wind blade cut through the spot where he had just been.
