Hinata: As long as we don't do it, we won't get it wrong! Kanami: Discharged!
"Hmph, what's the point?"
The Sand Ninja who had caused the damage confidently formed hand Hand Seals.
Soon, a large amount of sand was thrown up outside the classroom, with the name of one of the three people in his team written on it.
After the other companions saw it, they wrote down that name.
"Am I left behind as bait?"
The other companion, pointed at by the sand, frowned.
Anyway, it's just an exam, it's just a hypothetical situation, it's not like I'm really going to die.
He nodded and then decisively wrote down his name.
"This should get us through."
This time, the classroom was different; everyone was focused on their thoughts, no longer making a ruckus as before.
They knew it was pointless.
Neji Hyuga also fell into thought.
The team includes Tenten and Rock Lee.
If we analyze the actual situation and I'm certain to die, I'd be willing to stay. But I think Rock Lee would also be thinking of staying himself.
Should I write about myself or Rock Lee...?
No, that's not right. Given Tenten's personality, she might also write down her own name.
Although that guy always had a carefree laugh and seemed not to care about being left behind, he actually really wanted to contribute his strength to the team.
Neji Hyuga had seen Tenten practice extra on her own many times, and ask Teacher Guy what she was good at.
He knew that Tenten's true nature was actually the opposite of her seemingly carefree personality; she also had her own pride.
Thinking of this, Neji Hyuga frowned slightly and shook his head.
He realized that by continuing to think this way, all three names would eventually have a probability, so even if they were to guess, the probability of all three guessing correctly at the same time would be extremely small.
Just then, he inadvertently glanced at Kanami beside him and noticed that the other looked relaxed.
It seems they didn't give this bonus question much thought.
"Is it because of Hinata? If it were a situation like that, Hinata would definitely choose to stay."
This is what Neji Hyuga was thinking to himself.
As Hinata brother, he knows his younger sister quite well.
Earlier, because of the Caged Bird Seal, Hinata harbored resentment towards the Main Family, which led to Hinata being implicated. In addition, due to the death of his father, Hizashi, he always believed that it was the Main Family's system that led him to his death, which made him hate the Main Family even more.
However, all these issues were resolved after Kanami intervened.
Hiashi also gave him the will left by his father, Hizashi.
As Hizashi's son, Neji quickly understood that Hizashi's feelings at the time were not, as outsiders had speculated, about being Branch Family from the Main Family and dying to protect Main Family.
She died protecting her brother.
From that point on, he began to face himself and Hinata squarely, and stopped projecting his hatred for the system onto Hinata.
However, when he turned to look at the blank sheet of paper on Kanami's desk, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Didn't you write it?
Isn't it Hinata?
Was Kanami's relaxed expression just an act?
Kanami clearly sensed the subtle changes in Neji Hyuga's facial expressions, from frowning to analyzing to now looking puzzled.
"Brother-in-law, what would you do if you really encountered such a situation?"
Neji Hyuga looked at Kanami, wondering why the other party was asking the question again.
But she still replied, "Brother-in-law, if it were me, I would choose to stay."
Kanami raised an eyebrow slightly.
You really called me brother-in-law!
"So... if you were Rock Lee or Tenten now, would they choose you to stay?"
"No." Neji shook his head decisively.
The teamwork between them made him shake his head without hesitation.
They'll only keep themselves.
"Does this question still need to be answered?"
Kanami placed his hands behind his head.
He completely trusted Hinata's side, aside from their tacit understanding.
Most importantly, there's another layer of insurance: the Byakugan. Even if Hinata's little brain can't quite grasp it and she wants to sacrifice herself, she'll probably choose to see who I've written down.
If I write Hinata's name, will she be very sad when she sees it?
Kanami thought to himself with a smile on his lips.
However, he didn't try it, fearing that his little joke might unintentionally hurt Hinata.
If Hinata idiot, she might actually believe it!
"I understand. If everyone is thinking about what they want to leave behind, then there's no answer to this question. In other words, not answering is the correct answer."
After a few questions from Kanami, Neji Hyuga instantly understood.
In fact, he had already realized it, but he had fallen into the trap of trying to find the right answer.
Sometimes, however, there are questions that do not have a correct answer.
Besides Neji Hyuga and Kanami, there is another type of person who thinks that if they really encounter such a situation, they should choose the most useless companion as bait!
They've fallen into a trap about who's the weakest, a trap easier to escape than the Neji fell into, but once out, the answer will be wrong.
In Hinata's classroom, Choji Akimichi was about to write his own name because everyone had always thought he was useless.
Even he himself felt that he was truly useless, a good-for-nothing who only knew how to eat potato chips and snacks.
But then he saw Hinata, and saw that she was just sitting quietly, without a frown on her face.
The blank sheet of paper on the desk remained blank; no answer was given.
"Hinata- chan, why don't you write my name? I'm the most useless one, Kanami definitely won't write Hinata -chan's name, so it must be me."
As time was running out, Choji Akimichi couldn't help but offer his advice.
Hinata Hyuga turned to look at Choji.
"No, I will protect you if that happens."
"Um..."
Choji Akimichi nodded, about to say something, when he suddenly sensed something was amiss.
"Ah?"
He wondered if he had misheard; was he sure it was "I" and not Kanami?
Hinata's constant fear of not gaining her father's approval stemmed from her deep-seated anxieties.
The source of all fear is insufficient firepower.
She has now achieved minor success in her Sage Body cultivation, her Byakugan ability has been greatly enhanced, and she has also mastered the family's secret technique, the Gentle Step Twin Lion Fist. She has nothing left to fear.
In particular, she clearly felt that the limits of her Byakugan were far from over, and that it could evolve!
"Choji, do you know what Kanami told me Chunin exam?"
"Have no idea."
Hinata whispered, "He said that if you don't do it, you won't make a mistake! So I think that as long as we don't do it, we definitely won't make a mistake."
Choji Akimichi: "...?"
What's the connection between the last one and this one? Even the proctor who set the questions is different.
He wanted to refute something, but seeing Hinata's clear eyes, he ultimately swallowed his doubts.
Hinata was able to guess the answer correctly—that was not to be filled in—even Kanami couldn't have imagined it!
You won't make a mistake if you don't answer!
If Kanami knew, he would definitely say: Genius! Discharge from the hospital!
