On the way back to the village.

After holding back for a long time, Ino finally couldn't help but ask: "Neji, how do you control Kankuro's puppet? And it can be controlled so well."

She also knows a little bit of puppetry, and knows that to control this thing, you must use silk threads of various materials. Some masters may be able to control with Chakra silk thread, but there are traces to follow.

However, when Neji faced Kankuro, there was no trace.

When she asked, Shikamaru and Chōji were also very curious, and cast their gazes at Neji.

"Of course this is a secret, I can't tell you."

"Cut, really stingy..."

When Ino heard this, he didn't continue to ask.

In fact, Neji is really not a subterfuge, it's a secret.

He can manipulate Kankuro's crow entirely by relying on one of Tenseigan's abilities, which is to "give the puppet vitality."

Kankuro's instinct at the time was also correct, the crow was indeed not controlled by Neji, but controlled by himself.

After Neji injected Tenseigan's pupil power into it, the crow had vitality and changed from a dead thing to a living thing. Such crows are naturally more powerful than those controlled by Kankuro.

The reason why he stopped in the end was also because Neji retracted his pupil power.

Tenseigan until now, is his biggest secret apart from Deep Infrared. When he opened his eyes for the first time, he didn't cover it. Later, when he needed to use it, he would close one eye. In this way, the purple eyes will not attract the attention of others.

At present, Konoha knows that his eyes are special, except for Tenten Xiangrong, Tsunade and Shizune.

Needless to say, Tenten and Xiang Rin, they both captured Three Tails with him.

Tsunade Shizune was discovered during a battle between Neji and Danzo... and besides these four, no one else in Konoha knew about his eyes.

As for Konoha, Akatsuki may know that after Deidara and Sasori return, they will definitely spread the news.

But this is fine.

Anyway, Tenseigan is the only one in this world. Even if other people know that his eyes are special, they can't find what ability he has in the literature, which is equivalent to not knowing.

After the four of them returned to the village, they went to Hokage to return to their lives.

In the office, Tsunade said, "Thanks for your hard work, you didn't have any trouble with this mission, right?"

"Uh……"

Chōji was hesitating whether to tell what he had caused, but Neji said directly if he did not.

The little facts are utterly inadequate.

"Very well, then you can go to rest."

"Yes, Master Hokage."

The three of the tenth class left, but Neji didn't leave.

"You... what do you want to report?"

Tsunade's expression was unnatural, presumably because of the spiritual invasion.

After that time, both of them actually felt very embarrassed. In addition to the embarrassment, Neji will even be a little bit distressed, because Tsunade's memories will come to mind from time to time, disturbing his thoughts.

As for Tsunade... Facing someone who knows everything about his past, there is always a feeling that his whole body is seen through, twisting.

"It was Gaara who wanted me to mention about the deep alliance. He also wrote a letter himself, and it is estimated that it will be there in two days."

Neji adjusted his mentality and didn't think about some things, and repeated what Gaara had said to him.

Speaking of business matters, Tsunade also put his personal feelings behind and gradually entered the Hokage state.

"Is that right, it's actually good for Konoha."

"I think so."

"However, Sand Shinobi has torn up the alliance with us and betrayed us after all. If they want to deepen the alliance, they must show enough sincerity!"

"The hero sees the same thing."

Tsunade smiled and said, "You call yourself a hero, you have a thick skin."

"...Then I will go back with nothing else."

"Wait, something is up." Tsunade said suddenly.

Neji saw that her expression was not right, and asked, "What?"

Tsunade hesitated: "Forget it, go to your own office, your subordinates will tell you. But don't be impulsive when you know, I'm already thinking of a way to deal with it."

"..."

The meaning of this is a bit wrong, Neji didn't ask much, and immediately went to his branch.

At that time, Sai was on duty, Neji called him to the office and asked himself what happened in the past two days when he left the village.

Sai Hui reported: "It's two consultants."

"What happened to them?"

"They arranged for someone to monitor people close to you."

"..."

Seeing Neji's expression getting gloomy, Sai felt a sense of danger for the first time.

He continued to report: "Because of your request, we have always had someone secretly protecting a few people who are relatively close to you. In addition, Anbu's...no, there are other teams who are also doing this, probably Hokage. Instructed by your lord."

"continue."

"In the past two days, our people discovered that someone was secretly investigating a few people you are close to. The targets are Tenten, Xianglin, and Xiao Li. And there are people trying to follow them. Under our anti-tracking investigation, some of these people are He is the confidant of the two consultants and the descendants of some ninjas who were active during the Second Hokage period."

Neji asked, "Do they have any substantial actions?"

"Not yet. However, according to our calculations, they should have a plan."

"Give me the list."

Sai hesitated: "Captain Neji, Mr. Hokage has already approached us before, and said that she should not do it yet, she will find a chance to deal with it."

"I know, I won't move for the time being, but I have to know it well."

"clear."

Sai took out the sorted list, Neji looked at it and found that this is really a big group.

Even though the two consultants are not as good as Danzo, they have been in high positions in Konoha for many years, and it is impossible for them to not cultivate some of their own strengths.

In addition, there are some people who rely on consultants and hope to get power before they are willing to work for them.

As Sai said, many of the ninjas in the advisory group are descendants of Jōnin in the Second Hokage period. The two consultants were Second Generation escorts at the time, and it was normal for these Jōnins to let their descendants follow the consultants.

"Captain Neji, I have a suggestion."

"Say."

"If you want to get rid of the two consultants, you'd better Master some evidence. If there is no evidence, if you move them rashly, it will cause a big disturbance."

Neji naturally knew that he had planned to slowly clean up those two old things.

However, now that these two guys dare to hit the people around him, that nature has changed.

Had it not been for Tsunade to vaccinate him in advance, when he heard Sai's report, I am afraid he would have to ask him at the door as soon as possible.

Now, what he was thinking in his heart was that he should just beheaded directly with thunder.

He wants to kill, who can stop it?

Although Neji is usually peaceful, it does not mean that there is no hostility in his heart. On the contrary, sometimes, his hostility is so alarming that he will not stop when he is murderous.

Sai continued: "However, they are more careful than Danzo. After Danzo's accident, a lot of evidence is estimated to be destroyed. Even if you search the house now, I am afraid that nothing can be found."

"You can just say what you want to say."

"Yes." Sai said, "I think Orochimaru is probably holding the secret information of the two of them."

Orochimaru...

Neji didn't expect Sai to mention this guy.

Sai squinted: "When I was under Danzo, I knew some of the secrets between him and Orochimaru. There are some things that Danzo can't do alone. The two consultants also participated and contributed. Orochimaru must be clear about this. Coupled with his cautious personality and cunning rabbit three caves, there must be evidence of the crimes of three people in his hands."

Neji asked him, "Do you want me to cooperate with Orochimaru?"

"of course not."

Sai did not hesitate. He knew that Neji despised Orochimaru in his heart, and even disliked Orochimaru very much.

This is the difference between Neji and Danzo, and even Third Generation.

Some people hate a person, but when they need it, they pinch their noses and cooperate with that person.

But Sai can tell that Neji is not such a person. He felt that if Neji hated a person, he would never cooperate with him in any form.

"Then how do I get the evidence in his hands?"

"Of course it's a threat." Sai didn't hesitate, as if he had already thought about it clearly.

"Captain Neji, the personnel outside our branch have been looking for the trail of Orochimaru, and you know it. Yesterday, an intelligence came out saying that the trail of Sasuke was found."

"Oh?"

"If you can catch Sasuke and threaten Sasuke, Orochimaru will definitely give you what you want." Sai smiled, "Can't it be considered cooperation?"

Neji nodded slightly.

Sai this kid is quite scheming.

This is indeed a method. If you don't rely on Sasuke's threats, with Orochimaru's character, you will definitely avoid Konoha, let alone meet him.

But the problem is, Orochimaru himself also knows his weakness, and has suffered a loss, how can he not remember it?

Sasuke will be well protected by him...

Neji thought for a while and asked, "Where did Sasuke appear in the intelligence?"

"A small town in the country of grass."

"The country of grass..."

"This matches the previous information." Sai took out a copy of the previous day's information and showed it to Neji. "In this information, it was stated that a guy named Shigego was slaughtering. The village where he killed was located near the border of the country of grass and land. It can be seen that Orochimaru wants to rebuild the base, probably too. It will be around there."

Neji looked at him and suddenly laughed.

"This Orochimaru..."

"What's wrong?"

"It is estimated that he built the new base between the country of grass and the country of soil to prevent Konoha from destroying him again. He must know that the relationship between Konoha, grass, and Turkey is now tense. If a team is sent, It is bound to be strongly resisted by the two countries... Konoha imagined that it would be impossible to send someone to Otoyuki."

"So that's it." Sai understood Neji's meaning.

"However, I still have to go."

"Captain, do you think Master Hokage will agree with you?"

"Yes. I know her. Just like knowing myself..."

"..."

Sai's eyes became a little weird, and he didn't answer the conversation wittily.

Neji patted him on the shoulder: "I guess the Ninja world will start to be uneasy soon. Before that, it's better to clean the malignant tumors in the village thoroughly. Clean the house before welcoming guests."
