Hokage: I Neji will never go offline

Zabuza nodded, ignored these people, and turned back to introduce Neji.

"This is my base. There are rooms upstairs. I'll take you up."

Zabuza's words shocked everyone else in the room, and they even started talking secretly.

"Who is that guy? Zabuza-sama just said that he would lead them?"

"Yes, he is just a brat no matter what, right? Why would Zabuza-sama lead the way for such a brat?"

"That's right, is he Zabuza-sama's illegitimate son?"

"Hmm~~It's possible..."

…

The comments came and went, all reaching Zabuza's ears, and Zabuza's face immediately darkened.

"You guys are looking for death! I won't be able to protect you then!"

Zabuza's slightly angry words made everyone present shrink their heads, but these people's faces were very blank, and they had no idea what Zabuza meant by his words.

Neji glanced at everyone and found that all the people present were fog ninjas, and the amount of chakra was much less than Zabuza's chakra, and their strength was far below Zabuza's.

"Oh? Are these all your subordinates? They look pretty good. Speaking of which, I wanted to ask before, who is the person Cardo asked you to kill? Where is he now?"

Neji's casual tone made everyone present feel nervous. They looked at Zabuza with some horror, fearing that Zabuza would be angry. But what surprised these people was that Zabuza didn't have any angry expression on his face, but was still answering questions.

.

"That guy is an old man, I think his name is Tatsuna, and he is a bridge repairman. The information I got before is that the guy ran to Konoha. He should be looking for someone to escort him in Konoha. I have already sent someone to ambush him.

, it shouldn’t take long to win.”

There was a hint of confidence in Zabuza's words, and these words were also very important to Neji. With this information, Neji would be able to know the exact time.

"It seems that you have great confidence in the people you sent, but if they are all of this kind, I'm afraid they won't be enough to take down the old man's head."

As he said that, Neci glanced at everyone present. At this time, one of them finally couldn't help but stand up. A kunai instantly appeared in his hand and rushed towards Neci.

"Why are you speaking in such a condescending tone in front of us? Just stop it, you brat!"

"bump!"

As soon as this ninja arrived less than half a meter away from Ningji, before he could even touch Ningji, a powerful repulsive force immediately erupted from Ningji's body and directly bounced him away, smashing a big hole in the wooden house.

Zabuza's expression changed and he looked at Neji with some anxiety. Neji shrugged and didn't take it seriously.

"I'm sorry, I damaged your house. The accommodation is on the second floor. We can just go up there ourselves. I'm going to be merciful to that guy. He should be fine after a few days of training."

As Neji said this, he and Shiro walked up the stairs to the second floor. It wasn't until Neji and Shiro went upstairs that Zabuza breathed a long sigh of relief and sat down on the chair.

The ninja who had just been knocked away by Neji was also helped back. At this time, there was still a trace of blood on the corner of the ninja's mouth and his face was a little pale, but he did not seem to be seriously injured.

"Zabuza-sama, who is that guy..."

"Huh~~"

Zabuza exhaled, a trace of fatigue showing on his face.

"You all listen to me. Don't mess with that guy. He could easily defeat me at the age of four. Do you understand what I mean?"

Zabuza's words made everyone present widen their eyes, and the face of the man who had just been knocked away even showed fear.

On the second floor of the wooden house, Neci opened a door casually. The room was empty, with nothing in it, but Neci was very satisfied.

"Ah! We can finally rest down to earth, no need to take out our tent."

Bai rolled his eyes and took out two tents from the scroll, but did not start setting them up.

"Master Neji, why do we come to live in a place like this? It's not like we don't have money. Isn't it better for us to stay in a hotel? And since we are already in the room, why do we need to set up a tent? We also brought beds."

Shiro set up a tent, but Neji set it up with great enthusiasm.

"Shiro, of course there is a reason why I chose to live here. If nothing special happens, Itachi's younger brother should be participating in this mission to escort Tatsuna. We just need to stay here with Zabuza.

We have a clear grasp of their movements. Not only do we have a free house to live in, but we also have people providing us with information for free. If we don’t take advantage of this, we will be struck by lightning.”

"Huh? Is that so? Then why do you have to live in a tent?"

"Ah, since we don't have to live here for a long time, there is no need to move all those things out."

While talking, Neji had already set up a tent and started to set up the second tent. This time Shiro also joined in setting up the tent.

One month later.

Neji woke up from the tent, and as soon as he climbed out of the tent, he was faced with Shiro's very dissatisfied face.

"Ningji-sama, you said before that we would only stay for a few days, right? It's been a month now. What do you think about this?"

"Ah...morning, good morning, Bai..."

Neji climbed out of the tent with a smile. Because Zabuza had said it before, both Neji and Shiro had a good life during this month. They had good food and drink all day long. Neji felt like he wanted to

Fallen.

During this period, Shiro mentioned the tent issue several times, and Neji thought that it would be a few days away, so he was too lazy to pack things up. But now, a month has passed without even realizing it.

"Knock knock knock!"

Just when Neji was still thinking about what to do, there was a knock on the door. Neji immediately found his savior and ran to open the door.

"I'm coming!"

Neji opened the door, and what came was a Kiri nin carrying a large wooden plate filled with sumptuous food.

"Master Neji, I'm here to bring you food."

"Oh! You came at the right time. You are a savior! Uh...ahem! What, I just happened to be hungry."

Neji realized that he had lost his composure, and he felt that a cough made him become more serious, and he took the wooden plate from the Kirist ninja's hand.

Shiro, who was standing behind Neji, covered his forehead with his hands, feeling helpless.

"Well, Lord Neji, I'll leave first."

The Kiri Ninja seemed to be very scared, and hurriedly left as soon as the wooden disk was released. Neji didn't bother to care, he put the wooden disk on the ground, closed the door, and waved to Shiro.

"Bai, we're here to eat! After dinner, put away the tent and we're ready to go!"
