Chapter 33 Do you know what the difference is?

"Master Neji, why are you here?"

"Well, I have something to ask the master of the family. Can I come in?"

"Okay, please."

As a guard of the Hyuga branch family, he still maintained great respect for the young current head of the Hyuga branch family. He opened the door of the main family residence after just a few simple questions.

The person who came was none other than Naruto, who had transformed into the appearance of Hyuga Neji.

"By the way, where is the master of the family now?"

"In the study."

"I haven't been here for so long that I've forgotten where the study is. Could you please show me the way?"

"…But don't you come here every day to train with Miss Hinata?"

The guard suddenly felt that there seemed to be something wrong with this "Hinata Neji" in front of him...

But before the guard could think about it, Naruto raised his hand and patted him hard on the shoulder, completely interrupting his thoughts.

"Don't worry about these details, just give me the directions!"

"Ah? Ah... OK."

The guard shuddered suddenly, raised his hand in a daze and pointed towards the study.

Naruto nodded in satisfaction and patted the guard's shoulders twice.

Then he swaggered towards Hinata Hiashi's study.

According to the recollections of the guards of the Hyuga clan afterwards, Naruto, who was disguised as Hyuga Neji and walked towards the study that day, walked with an eight-character step, appearing extremely arrogant, and at the same time... deserved a beating!

……

"Uncle, I'm here to see you."

As soon as Naruto pushed open the door of the study, he had a deep eye contact with Hinata Hiashi who had been waiting for him.

Hinata Hiashi: (ー_ー)!!

[Uncle? Just by calling me that, I can tell you’re pretending...]

The real Hyuga Neji would respectfully call Hyuga Hiashi "Master of the Family" on the surface, but secretly he might call him:

Old thing, old bastard, the enemy who killed my father...

But it definitely won’t be—Uncle.

"…Why are you here so late? Is there something wrong?"

Although he knew that the Hyuga Neji in front of him was Naruto in disguise, it did not stop Hyuga Hiashi from being curious about why Naruto did this.

"This is the uncle...

I know that my father left a letter before he died, and I came to you this time to ask you to give me that letter."

Yes, this is Naruto's purpose.

In Naruto's opinion, the simplest and most direct way to solve the problem of Hyuga Neji is to help him untie his knot.

If one wants to resolve Neji Hyuga's heart knot, the letter written by Hyuga Hizashi himself is one of the essential props.

"...How did you know that this letter existed?"

Hinata Hiashi narrowed his eyes slightly, and his evaluation of Naruto in his heart rose to a higher level unconsciously.

At least in terms of intelligence gathering, Naruto's performance made him couldn't help but be surprised.

Except for him, no one knew about the existence of that letter...

"Don't worry about this, uncle. I naturally have my own channels of information.

Ever since I learned about the existence of this letter, I have been thinking about it every day.

As a son, I also want to know what my father wrote in the letter... So...

Could you please give me the letter now?"

Naruto deliberately put on a heartbroken expression, and under the nose of Hinata Hiashi, he performed more and more vigorously and emotionally.

In the end, Naruto even forced two lines of tears out of his eyes, kneeling on the ground and kowtowed to Hinata Hiashi repeatedly.

The sad words kept echoing in the study, making anyone who heard them sad and anyone who saw them cry.

Under Naruto's hard work, Hyuga Hiashi almost couldn't hold back. He really didn't expect that the son of the Fourth Hokage would be so shameless...

“…Logically speaking, this letter is a relic of Hiashi.

As a son who wants to get back his father's belongings, I have no reason to refuse, nor should I ask you what you are going to do with this letter...

It’s a pity that you are not Hyuga Neji…”

Naruto: (??? д ???)!!!

"Uncle, what are you talking about?

Please take a good look at me. I am your most beloved nephew.

Who else could I be if not Hyuga Neji?"

After hearing this, Hinata Hiashi gave a meaningful smile to Naruto, whose face was full of guilt.

He was about to speak when a voice came from outside the door.

"Master, I have brought the person here."

Hearing the report from the man outside the door, the corners of Hinata Hiashi's upturned mouth widened even further.

"In fact, from the first words you said when you saw me, I could conclude that you were not Neji's child... Do you want to know why?"

Naruto: (||?_?)? ! !

"come in."

At Hinata Hiashi's command, the person outside the door pushed the door open and walked in.

The person who opened the door was a jonin from the Hyuga clan.

This is not terrible.

The scary thing is that there is someone following him - the real Hyuga Neji.

Naruto: =?(??? ????)? ! !

"Uncle, look, someone actually dared to pretend to be me in your house!

How presumptuous!

Uncle, do you care?"

Naruto, who was in a panic, suddenly had an idea and decided to turn the tables.

The reason why Naruto did this was that he wanted to muddy the waters first no matter what, and then find a way to escape quietly.

I can only say that Naruto's idea is good.

If the others didn't know his true identity, it's possible that Naruto might have managed to escape.

It's just a pity...

"Bagua Kongzhang!"

Hyuga Neji was a ruthless man who didn't talk much. He raised his hand and sent out an Eight Trigrams Palm shockwave towards Naruto.

However, the speed of this shock wave seemed a bit slow, giving Naruto enough time to dodge.

By the time Naruto dodged it, the speed of the shock wave suddenly increased and hit Hinata Hiashi directly.

boom! ! !

A large amount of smoke and dust suddenly rose up in the study.

Naruto: ⊙_⊙? ? ?

I always feel that the Eight Trigrams Palm that Hyuga Neji launched was aimed at Hyuga Hiashi from the very beginning...

The smoke and dust cleared, and Hyuga Hiashi was sitting in his original position unharmed, looking at Naruto playfully.

Seeing that Hyuga Hiashi was not hurt, a trace of barely perceptible disappointment appeared on Hyuga Neji's face, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye and returned to his expressionless look.

Hyuga Neji spoke coldly with almost no emotion.

"Is there something the master of the family wants me to do? If not, I will take my leave first."

As for Naruto who was standing in the study pretending to be him...

Ningci said it was none of his business?!

"So now you know the difference between you and the real Neji?"

Naruto: "Huh?"

"The problem is that you are too polite to me."

Naruto: (=°Д°=)? ! !

He never expected the answer to be this...

"Now, change back to your original form and tell me your purpose honestly... Uzumaki Naruto."

Naruto: ????ДO???? !!

[Gah! I was really recognized this time...
