Neji was forced to go out for a meal, and at the same time, he found Tenten and Rock Lee together.

Although Kanami wanted to call out to someone else, Fū, the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki, she quickly left the exam site with the two Ninja from Takigakure who had followed her.

As for the Ajisai, he had already come up with a better solution.

In the Original Plot, Neji, Tenten, and their group would encounter the Ajisai group from Amegakure, and their relationship would develop from hostility to a good one.

So, during their meal, Kanami told Team Guy's team about the potential trouble that might happen to the Ajisai.

I don't need to contact the Ajisai anymore, lest Hinata misunderstand something.

"Brother-in-law, how did you know that something bad would happen to the Ajisai?"

After listening to the Neji Hyuga, who was sitting to the side, was the first to ask a question.

Everyone was already shocked by Neji's way of addressing people, but after hearing the reason behind it, they were no longer surprised.

Only Tenten still finds it unbelievable.

In her eyes, Neji was just as cold-blooded as Sasuke, so she never expected him to be able to come up with such dry humor.

"Yes, Kanami, if a stranger were saying all this about the future, I would think he's crazy."

Tenten, with her hair in two buns, nodded in agreement.

Of all those present, only one person truly believed Kanami: Hinata Hyuga.

She still remembered the time Chunin exam when her opponent seemed to have foreseen the future.

But now, there was a different emotion in her gaze as she looked at Kanami.

She always felt that there was a mysterious aura about Kanami. Even though they had been together for so long and had been completely honest with each other, she still couldn't quite see through Kanami.

Kanami, oblivious to Hinata's unusual thoughts, said to Neji and Tenten, "Brother-in-law, Tenten, I can't explain this. You can just think of it as me having the ability to see a glimpse of the future."

The ability to see a glimpse of the future?!

Hearing Kanami say this, everyone was even more shocked than before.

Neji's eyes flickered for the first time. "Brother-in-law, now that you say that, we're even more curious. Is it due to practicing Senjutsu?"

Tenten, Rock Lee, and Choji Akimichi, whose mouth was stuffed with food, all stared at Kanami with curiosity.

We expect him to provide an explanation.

"Yes, while cultivating immortal Senjutsu, I mastered a special ability."

Kanami took advantage of the situation to back down.

Since the other party has given a reasonable reason, you should just respond accordingly.

"I see, I also wish I had the chance to learn Senjutsu Mode from Lady Tsunade!"

Tenten, she rested her hands on the table, clutching her bun, her eyes filled with longing.

"Brother-in-law, can you see me...?" Neji Hyuga paused, seemingly struggling internally, before finally looking up at Kanami and asking, "Will our Hyuga Clan ever break away from this system in the future?"

Upon hearing this question, Kanami seemed lost in thought.

In the Original Plot, Naruto made a promise after defeating Neji Hyuga, but unfortunately, he didn't actually keep those promises.

It could even be said that Naruto hadn't even remembered the promise he had made.

Moreover, after Neji's death, he had even less motivation to do it.

Neji stared at Kanami, seemingly lost in thought, then lowered his head as if realizing something.

Indeed, even though the Main Family and Branch Family are now living in harmony, the system of the Main Family and Branch Family will not disappear, and there will still be Caged Bird Seal in the future...

That's true. Even if they put aside their resentment, most members of the Main Family will still feel that being from the Main Family makes them superior.

It seems that relying solely on Uncle Hiashi is insufficient to completely eradicate the Hyuga Clan's system.

Kanami put his hand on Neji and laughed, "Don't be discouraged. I haven't announced the results yet. I was just trying to understand."

"I can only see a glimpse, the future I see..."

"The Hyuga Clan's Caged Bird Seal will be lifted, and the system of the Main Family and Branch Family will be abolished, but I saw a familiar figure."

A familiar figure?

Neji asked.

"Yes, that figure was you. I think the future direction of the Hyuga Clan that I foresaw definitely owes something to you."

Kanami smiled slightly.

Neji felt a warmth in his heart upon seeing this.

"Brother-in-law, thank you."

Kanami wasn't lying to him; rather, he was making a promise. He had long considered abolishing the Hyuga Clan's abnormal system.

Just because Huang Mao can't do it doesn't mean he can't.

Moreover, after becoming the Seventh Hokage, the blond-haired man already had the destiny to change the Hyuga Clan's system.

He just didn't remember.

"And what about me, Kanami? Can you help me see my future? Will I become Ninja as powerful as Lady Tsunade?"

Tenten, who was standing nearby, immediately became interested as well.

As for Tenten, the future was too simple, but Kanami remembered it very clearly.

Her future became that of the proprietress of a Ninja Tool Shop.

Would she be very disappointed if I told her this?

Kanami thought to himself.

"How is it? Can you see it?"

Kanami rested one hand on his chin, feigning deep thought.

Finally, he said, "Having seen part of it, I know you will play a crucial role in the Fourth Great Ninja War, perhaps even instantly killing Kage-level shinobi."

Kanami didn't exactly deceive Tenten.

The fact that he only gained the power to instantly kill Kakuzu after finding the Six Paths Tools, the Basho Fan, during the Fourth Great Ninja War was omitted.

He still remembers that after Tenten swung her fan, she was lying on the ground the next second, her Chakra depleted.

"Really?!"

Tenten, he gets so excited that he clenches his fists and waves them in the air.

"You'll know whether I'm telling the truth or not when you see Ajisai."

I believe my brother-in-law.

Neji looked at Kanami with sincere eyes, clearly a devoted fanboy.

"Um, Kanami! Actually, I also wanted to ask, will I become Ninja as powerful as Teacher Guy in the future!"

Wearing a green bodysuit and sporting a watermelon-shaped haircut Rock Lee, with his hands dangling behind his head, asked somewhat embarrassedly.

He deeply admires Teacher Guy Might Guy and aims to catch up with him, but he still wonders if he has any chance of Teacher Guy.

As for exceeding it, he hadn't thought about it.

Teacher Guy's daily hard work and training, he could only barely keep up.

Kanami was immediately taken aback.

Become Teacher Guy?

That was the man who almost kicked the entire series to its conclusion, while Rock Lee could only open Six Gates to cheer him on even in the later stages!

In other words, Rock Lee, who could have opened the Five Gates a year ago, only opened one more gate by the Fourth Great Ninja War.

Kanami frowned slightly. "Rock Lee, I see that you'll have a hard time keeping up with Teacher Guy's pace in the future."

"Oh..."

Rock Lee immediately deflated.

"But don't be discouraged. It's not that you're too weak, it's that Teacher Guy is too strong. In the glimpse of the future I saw, Teacher Guy distorted space with a single kick."

"Don't even mention you, I feel like there are only a handful of people in the entire Shinobi World who could withstand that kick."

"What?!"

Rock Lee immediately stood up.

"You kicked space itself out of shape?!"
