Hokage: I Neji will never go offline

Neji's words made Sasuke's eyes immediately turn into Sharingan eyes, and he struggled violently as if he was stimulated.

"You guys really know Itachi! Where is he now! Tell me quickly!"

"boring!"

Neji kicked Sasuke away and turned his attention back to Kakashi. Kakashi hesitated and finally chose to let Zabuza go.

"Anyway, you can be considered as helping us complete the task, thank you very much."

"Haha, as expected, you are more sensible. So, I'll take my leave. Zabuza, thank you very much this time."

With that said, Neji and Shiro disappeared directly. Zabuza returned to freedom, put the decapitating sword on his back, and glared at Kakashi with some disapproval.

"Kakashi, the battle between us is not over yet. You will not be so lucky next time!"

After saying that, Zabuza disappeared. Kakashi breathed a sigh of relief and put away the kunai.

Sasuke pushed himself up from the ground with his hands, the pupils of his eyes kept trembling, and gradually evolved from the first magatama to the second magatama.

In Zabuza's residence, Zabuza was bandaging his wounds at this time. Neji and Shiro pushed open the door and walked in. Zabuza suddenly raised his head and looked at Neci with an almost cannibalistic look.

"You bastard, how dare you come to my place! Get out of here!"

In anger, Zabuza directly threw the bandage roll in his hand towards Neji. Neji caught the bandage roll and handed it to Shiro, then approached Zabuza with a smile on his face.

"Oh, don't be angry. Didn't I save your life just now? After all, I am also your savior. Do you treat your savior like this?"

"Get out of here! If it weren't for you, how could I have ended up like this! What are you doing here, you bastard!"

Neji scratched his head in embarrassment and quickly waved to Bai, asking Bai to come over.

"Conscience of heaven and earth, I really came here with you in mind this time. Weren't you bitten by a dog just now? Who knows if Kakashi's dog usually brushes its teeth? It would be bad if it gets infected. Shiro, come and help.

He takes care of it.”

Shiro immediately came to Zabuza's side and used Palm Senjutsu to help Zabuza heal his injuries, mainly to treat the scars left by dog ​​bites on Zabuza's body.

The anger on Zabuza's face faded, and his eyes became serious.

"What do you want to do, Akatsuki? A few years ago, Juuzang Loquat and Kisame Kisaki had a conflict with the Fourth Mizukage in the Kingdom of Water. As a result, Juuzang Loquat was killed by the Fourth Mizukage. If they didn't have a special purpose, they

There is absolutely no reason for the two of you to go back, what you want is the tailed beast!"

Neji didn't expect that Zabuza's powers of observation were so sharp, that he could guess Akatsuki's purpose with just such a little bit of information.

Neji dragged the chair next to him over a little, sat down, and crossed his legs.

"There are some things you'd better not know. Wouldn't Loquat Juuzang die? You are not a member of Akatsuki. Knowing too much will not be good for you. You'd better heal your injuries quickly and then go do whatever you need to do."

"Tch! What you say is really irritating. You came all the way to the Land of Waves just to kill a wealthy businessman. No wonder you guys have a bad reputation."

Neji found a comfortable position on the armchair and lay down, not caring at all about Zabuza's comments on Akatsuki's reputation.

"Although I don't object to you saying that our Akatsuki has a bad reputation, I still want to correct one thing. Our original goal was not Kado. We were planning to go to Konoha, but because the time has not come yet, we came here

Let’s have some fun in the Country of Waves, I told you from the beginning, we are here for vacation.”

Although Neji's words were not 100% true, they were at least 80% true, but in Zabuza's opinion, Neji was just pretending to have his true purpose when he said this, and it was completely untrustworthy.

"I don't care what your purpose is, just don't appear in front of me again in the future."

Neji shrugged and stood up. At this time, Haku, who was treating Zabuza, also stood up.

"Ningji-sama, the treatment has been completed and it's almost time to leave."

"Oh! Let's go! We have finally waited for this day. So many years have passed in the blink of an eye. Now that I think about it, I really miss it."

Neji's eyes lost focus, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he gradually fell into memories.

"Are you leaving now?"

Zabuza's voice immediately interrupted Neji's memories. Neji's face darkened and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.

"You did this on purpose, didn't you? It's rare for me to recall my wonderful childhood, but you couldn't look at the atmosphere while you were talking? You asked me if I can leave now. Could it be that you still want to hold a farewell ceremony for me?"

Although Neji's strength is much stronger than Zabuza's, after this period of getting along, Zabuza has gained some understanding of Neji, and his attitude towards Neji has become more casual.

"Since you are leaving today, I must have a good celebration with my subordinates tonight. As for what you said about reminiscing about childhood? Ha! Aren't you still a brat?"

"You! Very good! Zabuza, you have the guts! You actually mocked me, let's see! Shiro, let's go!"

Neji realized that he would be the one to suffer in the end if he continued to argue with Zabuza, so he simply left with Shiro.

Zabuza looked at the backs of Neji and Shiro leaving, with a rare smile on his face, and a glint of expectation in his eyes.

"You guy..."

Two months later, outside Konoha Village.

Neji looked at Konoha Village in the distance, a trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes, and he couldn't help but smile.

"We've arrived. Konoha Village is ahead."

It didn't take that long to get from the Country of Waves to Konoha Village at the speed of Ningji and Shiro, but in order to get to Konoha at the best time, Shiro and he delayed some time on the road, so it took

It took two months.

At this time, the gate of Konoha was wide open, and there was a huge flow of people. Many people entered, and the reason for all this was because people from all sides of the Chunin Examination were entering Konoha.

Precisely because there are so many people entering Konoha, there are six people guarding the gate of Konoha at the same time. It can be said that it is heavily guarded. Even Shiro can't help but feel worried when he sees the intensity of the guard.

"Ningji-sama, how should we get in? Do you need me to ask Itachi-sama for the ANBU password? I've also prepared the ANBU fox-head mask here."

In Neji's field of vision, Konoha is now completely enveloped by a huge bowl-shaped barrier. No matter where you enter Konoha, you will be easily noticed. What can ensure that it is foolproof is the guarded main entrance of Konoha.

Neji took out two pieces of Konoha ninja's forehead protectors from the scroll and threw one of them to Shiro, and the Tsanseigan gradually transformed into Byakugan.

"It's totally unnecessary. Let's just walk in openly from the main entrance and just follow me."

Neji put the remaining forehead protector on his forehead with an excited smile on his face.

"Konoha, I'm back!"
