Red sand dust

When the New Year is approaching, most of the ninja world is in a world of ice and snow.

Not only Konoha Village, but also Sunagakure Village, which rarely experiences rain or snow, also experienced a major snowstorm.

Even the southernmost village of Naruto felt chilly. Many of the locals had never experienced snowy weather in their lives. This time they had gained some experience.

Awaji Village, which is close to the south coast and backed by dry desert, did not feel the widespread cold wave that is rare at the end of the year.

The severe cold weather did not affect the fiery atmosphere. Most of the people in the ninja world were not living well. It was a rare festive day and the celebrations with their own characteristics would not be disturbed by the rain or snow.

Fortunately, in the last two or three days, the cold air that had lasted for nearly a week finally stopped its raging pace, and the gloomy sky cleared up for the first time in a long time.

The villagers of Konoha, who were shoveling snow in front of the rising sun, rarely enjoyed the slightly dry, cold but fresh air.

It has been so long since the Konoha Collapse Plan, and the wounds caused by the war have almost healed. Although the villagers are still not enthusiastic about the Suna ninja who often appears in the village, it is not the same as before. Rejected.

In a corner of the village, hidden deep in a snow-covered bamboo forest, was the Hyuga family mansion. Hyuga Neji, who had spent a peaceful time, was practicing soft boxing with the two eldest ladies of the clan, as usual, and then with two Teammates Tiantian and Locke Li went to the training ground in the back mountain to practice together.

Although ninjas are a group with amazing self-control, practical difficulties will still greatly reduce their enthusiasm.

In the past, there was a Feng Shui treasure place where ninjas could practice early, but now there are only three people working hard here.

Even the female ninja Tiantian, who was weak in willpower and physical fitness, did not complain, but meticulously accompanied her teammates to complete the planned training tasks.

It wasn't until three o'clock in the morning that Hyuga Neji, Tiantian and Rock Lee stopped and found a clean place to eat dry food for breakfast.

This season, it was really difficult to be in the wild. Fortunately, Tiantian was careful and prepared hot tea for himself and his teammates. Otherwise, those frozen and hard steamed buns would be really hard to swallow.

After relieving his physical fatigue and replenishing food and water, Tiantian, who seemed a little worried, complained unconsciously:

The year is coming to an end again. Xiao Li has become a chuunin, and Neji has become a jounin. Only I seem to be holding back...

After the Chunin Examination, the promotion of Rock Lee and Hyuga Neji is undisputed, especially for the geniuses of the Hyuga family. When they become jounin depends on when Konoha Village needs a jounin. For him, the task assessment is completely not a problem.

Only Tenten, who was eliminated too early in the Chuunin Exam and had no chance to perform at all, seems to have become a little transparent among this group of young people of similar age. Even Haruno Sakura and Nara Shikamaru are rated higher than her.

There is really no place to talk about the pain of being surpassed by younger generations.

Anxin, Tiantian, you are just unlucky. There are still many opportunities to be promoted to Chunin. There will be no problem next time!

I accept your good words!

Even his teammates couldn't be happy every day after being encouraged by the stubborn Rock Lee.

Hinata Neji calmly rubbed his hands and took a breath of hot air and said calmly:

The last chuunin exam was really special. Many unexpected masters appeared. Coupled with the changes in the exam rules, some discomfort is inevitable!

Not to mention Tenten, even Hyuga Neji went through many hard battles and finally lost to Kurama Yakumo in the finals.

According to the evaluation of the older seniors, Konoha Village has been established for nearly sixty years. Even in the big year when talents have exploded, it has never been as exaggerated as this year. It does not give opportunities to young people with less qualifications at all. Even Ino Lu Die The children of the family were almost squeezed out of the circle, and they were lucky enough to barely make it to the third round.

The real reason is that while Konoha Village is full of talents, the genin of Sunagakure Village have also shown unexpected strength, and this is the result of them not sending out the strongest lineup.

It is of course a good thing to have a powerful ally, especially at this critical moment when the order of the ninja world is challenged by the Akatsuki organization, but if it is too strong than expected, it is not a surprise, but a shock.

The three of them chatted. Tiantian, who was depressed, also cared about his teammates, especially Hyuga Neji. When he saw that he seemed to be worried, he found a chance to ask:

Although I don't know what you are worried about, if we can, we will be happy to help...

Any doubts about spiritual practice are also related to the family!

Although they did not hide it, they did not tell them in detail. Whether it was the conflict between the main family and the branch family of the Hyuga family, or the confusion between the Byakugan and Tsangigan, the two teammates were not able to help.

Locke Li may not know very much about the Hyuga family, but he understands it a little bit every day.

The problems that have arisen in a family that has been passed down for thousands of years cannot be solved by a few young people. I am afraid that even their teacher Metkai cannot speak.

Then... let's seize the time to practice!

That's all the three of them can do.

Every time they improve their strength, they will become more confident, and this is the only area they can control by themselves.

At the same time, the sky was filled with fragments of floral stratus clouds, and Kashiwagi, who was overlooking the scenery below from high in the sky, said with admiration:

Those who can succeed are not lucky...

Waving its small black wings, the hill wind swirled by the wind also echoed:

Not only is he talented, but he also works hard enough. Ordinary ninjas really can't compare to such a person...

Before pushing his strength to the limit that his talent can reach and without breaking through the bottleneck, Hyuga Neji's lead will only get bigger and bigger. This is almost certain.

only……

This type of person who has almost no need for external help and can achieve his goals by relying on his own efforts makes it even more difficult to deal with...

Uchiha Sasuke's talent is also good, but he has an urgent desire for revenge and a strong need to quickly improve his strength. This is his weakness, which can be exploited.

Hyuga Neji originally had a situation where his father died violently and he was incompatible with the Hyuga clan, but it was resolved now.

There is no revenge for killing his father, and it will not be his turn to revive the family. Hinata, who has a big family, has many talents, not to mention a talented child of the branch family. Even Hinata, who is the head of the clan, wants to leverage The power structure of the Hyuga family is not easy.

The development of such a large family has its own inertia, and it is simply not something that one person can control.
