Chapter 179 Danzo: He will agree! Danzo: On behalf of the Root, I invite you to join

His eyes glanced coldly at Hazy, who was still lying on the ground.

Then he slowly closed his palms and stood back to where he was.

Hajime coughed heavily and tried to stand up, but found that all the power in his body had been completely blocked by Neji, making even movement a luxury.

"Damn you brat."

Feeling the condition of his body, Long's face was full of unwillingness.

Because his illusion hasn't been unleashed yet.

This kid's attack speed is too fast.

At this moment he has lost the ability to fight!

"Winner, Hyuga Neji!"

The next second, Moonlight Hayate stepped forward and after confirming Hazy's condition, announced the result of the game without hesitation.

Seeing this, Hyuga Neji walked off the field.

"Hiruzen!"

Looking at this scene, Danzo looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen: "This brat who is separated from the Hyuga clan is qualified to enter my root and become a member of the root."

Sarutobi Hiruzen: "."

Hearing Danzo's words, Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyelids twitched.

What nonsense is Danzo talking about again?

"The decision to divide the Hyuga clan is not in my hands."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Danzo speechlessly: "You can go to Hinata Hizashi to get the list and apply."

You actually want Hyuga Neji to enter the root, what a joke.

It would be damned if Hinata and Hinata agreed.

"There's no way Hinata Hizashi agrees."

When Danzo Shimura heard what Sarutobi Hiruzen said, his face darkened, and he said coldly: "But I only need your consent, and I will personally talk to the brats of the Hyuga clan afterwards."

"Separate the families."

After hearing Danzo's words, Sarutobi Hiruzen was silent for a moment.

Looking at Hyuga Neji who returned to Metkai, Sarutobi Hiruzen was silent for a while, and then slowly said: "You can go and communicate with Neji. If he is willing to join your roots, Danzo, absolutely No action is allowed, otherwise I will not be able to explain to the Hyuga clan. "

Just now Danzo wanted Tenten, but he refused.

If he rejects another Hinata Neji, it would indeed be a bit "sorry" to Danzo.

Especially because I seemed to have misunderstood Danzo's Asia before.

Orochimaru and Danzo have done this, and there is no way it can be fake.

This is also the reason why he is willing to give in to Danzo.

"Don't worry, he will definitely agree."

Hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen's words, Shimura Danzo suddenly showed a sinister smile on his face.

Sarutobi Hiruzen agreed, as long as he could successfully communicate with the kid who was separated from the Hyuga clan.

Then this kid from the Hyuga clan can join the branch family.

He knew that this brat had always hated the Hyuga clan, so this was a good opportunity.

Seeing the sneer and confidence on Danzo Shimura's face, Hiruzen Sarutobi did not speak, but shook his head and walked straight away.

The game is almost over and he has to play.

soon.

Two more games started and ended, and the second chuunin exam was completely over.

The people who passed the exam stood there with excited faces.

"You all have successfully passed the third Chuunin Examination. Although some people are absent, I still want to congratulate you."

At this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the candidates who had passed and said slowly: "I will now explain the content of the official competition."

"I said before the competition that you represent the fighting power of the ninja villages of your respective countries. I hope you can perform to your own outstanding level."

"For this reason, the official match will be in a month's time."

"What?"

"A month from now?"

"Damn it, is it going to take so long?"

"It's great. There is no competition for a short time, so I can have a good rest."

After hearing what Sarutobi Hiruzen said, everyone present suddenly widened their eyes.

Especially Uzumaki Naruto was even more shocked: "I thought it would start in a few days."

"This time is used to prepare for you."

Hearing Uzumaki Naruto's words, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked over, glanced at the Xuanzhong Ruler on Uzumaki Naruto's back, and said slowly: "This month is not only about your preparations, but also about what will happen next. Time to inform the daimyo and ninja leader preliminaries in each country that the preliminaries have ended, and summon them to watch the official competition."

"At the same time, this also gives you some time to prepare for war."

"The preparation policy you need to do is to analyze your opponent's performance in the preliminaries. The previous battles were all simulated actual battles, but the official match is different."

"I'm afraid no one will retain their strength in front of a sworn enemy. Relatively speaking, when facing a powerful enemy, someone will be beaten black and blue."

"For the sake of fairness and justice, please work hard this month."

"Of course, it's not impossible to have a good rest."

"The method used in the official competition is a last-place elimination round. Considering that at least one person is absent, the actual decision to draw the opponent will be prepared a few days before the start of the competition. A dedicated person will inform your team leader Jonin, and then notify you."

"At this time, whether you are considering tactics or taking a rest, the time at this stage is at your disposal."

"You don't have to pay for accommodation, food and drink for this month. Konoha will arrange it, but you have to bear the additional expenses yourself."

"Okay, that's all I have to say. We're ready to disband. Do you have anything else you want to ask before disbanding?"

"I have."

After hearing what Sarutobi Hiruzen said, Nara Shikamaru hurriedly raised his hand: "If it is a last-place competition system, then the champion will definitely be determined in the end. There is only one person, wouldn't it mean that only one person can advance to become a chuunin in the end?"

"No, that's not the case."

Hearing Nara Shikamaru's words, Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and said: "In the official competition, I, the Kazekage, and the daimyo and ninja leaders who will be entrusted with tasks in the future will all be present as judges."

"We are giving the final judgment based on your series of performances in this game. Those who are rated as having Chunin qualifications can also become Chunin if they do not pass the first round in time."

"You all have the potential to become chunin."

"But it's possible, and it's possible that you won't be able to become a chuunin."

"Winning the knockout round means increasing the opportunity to show yourself. Do you understand? Shikamaru-kun."

"So troublesome?!"

Hearing this, Nara Shikamaru's expression changed drastically.

Uzumaki Naruto also turned green.

This is too much trouble.

"Because the chuunin who becomes this time will at least be famous in the Land of Wind and the Land of Fire, which is different from the chunin who advanced in the previous chunin exams."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said calmly: "If there are no other questions, thank you all for your hard work. See you in a month!"

With that said, Sarutobi Hiruzen left.

As Sarutobi Hiruzen left, the candidates present also returned to their teams one by one and left.

"Ah, it's finally over."

Uzumaki Naruto squinted his eyes: "I want to go back and have a good sleep."

"Sakura went to take care of Sasuke, and Kakashi-sensei also went, so I'm alone now, well, let's go back."

While holding Charmander in his arms, Uzumaki Naruto left.

The entire venue gradually left.

Hinata Neji glanced at Uzumaki Naruto who was leaving alone, and walked towards the other exit with a very calm expression.

His steps were steady and his eyes were calm. The victory in the ring just now left him without any disturbance in his heart.

For him, this game was just an ordinary test that showed his strength, but it was nothing to be particularly proud of.

He has clear goals for the future and does not need any external evaluation to influence his judgment.

Today I still need to go to the Saiyan training machine to train.

As he walked, Neji found that he had unknowingly arrived at a remote road. The surroundings were eerily quiet, as if the bustle after the game had been isolated in another world.

For a moment, Hinata Neji frowned slightly.

Just as he was about to continue moving forward, two figures suddenly appeared at the corner ahead.

It was an old man with a gloomy face and a cane.

Standing next to him was a ninja wearing a root mask.

The old man was wearing a dark kimono, his one eye was covered with a bandage, and he exuded a cold and oppressive aura.

It was Danzo Shimura, one of the advisors of Konoha Village.

Seeing this scene, Neji frowned even more.

He didn't know this person, but he could feel that he was not simple.

The root ninja stood aside, his expression hidden behind the mask, but his aura also conveyed a dangerous aura.

For a moment, Hinata Neji became alert.

"Hyuuga Neji."

Danzo took two steps, his eyes were cold, and his voice was low and hoarse: "I am Konoha's advisor, Shimura Danzo."

"Konoha's advisor?"

Upon hearing this, Neji looked up at him, confused.

He knew there were advisors in the Leaf Village.

But what is this one doing all of a sudden?

Although he was confused, Hyuga Neji did not reply immediately, but just stared at Danzo quietly.

Neji had never met this advisor, but he could feel the pressure from him.

"Your strength intrigues me."

Danzo looked at Hyuga Neji who was silent and was not in a hurry. Instead, he sneered and spoke with a hint of appreciation and an attitude that could not be refused.

"I have an organization under the ANBU in Konoha called 'Root'."

"The Roots are a special force established for the development and prosperity of Konoha, recruiting only the best ninjas."

"I saw your performance on the field and would like to invite you to join the Roots."

Upon hearing this, Neji's brows moved slightly, but he quickly regained his composure.

He had heard of ANBU for a long time, but the ANBU was a less public organization.

Although he felt that these two roots were unusual, he also knew that ANBU ninjas usually did not recruit directly so hastily.

Because the root organization is an organization affiliated with Naruto.

If the ANBU invited him, they should directly say that it was the Hokage who arranged it.

But this guy didn't say Naruto.

You won’t meet a liar, right?

But these days, would anyone dare to pretend to be an ANBU ninja in Konoha Village?

Danzo seemed to notice Neci's doubts, sneered and said slowly: "You don't have to doubt my sincerity."

"As long as you join the Roots, I can guarantee that you will become a chuunin within a month."

"There is no need to participate in any more tests, because at the root, you will get the most direct cultivation and promotion!"

"Even jounin doesn't need to go through the normal promotion path."

"One year, one year after you join, I guarantee you will become a Jonin."

One year as a Jonin?

Hearing this, Hinata Neji's pupils shrank sharply.

What a joke.

A Jonin is a very important person in the Ninja Village.

This guy is so confident after telling himself this.

It was his goal to become a chuunin, let alone a so-called jounin.

But this way is obviously not what he wants.

He never believed in easy things.

Especially now that the consultant suddenly appeared, his words contained too much uncertainty.

"Thank you for your offer, but I don't need it."

Neji lowered his head slightly and rejected Danzo's proposal: "Even without your root's help, I can become a chuunin."

After saying that, Neji planned to bypass Danzo and continue walking forward.

However, just as he was about to pass by, Danzo's voice came again, with a strange smile in his tone: "Even so, don't you want to unlock the seal on your forehead?"

Upon hearing these words, Hinata Neji's pupils suddenly shrank, and his heart seemed to be tightly clenched by something.

Subconsciously, Danzo turned around suddenly and stared at Danzo: "What did you say?"

The ANBU of Konoha Village have a way to unlock the seal on their forehead?

Seeing Hinata Neji's movements, Danzo had a subtle smile on his lips.

He knew that he had successfully captured Hinata Neji's pain point.

The fate of this separated kid has long been bound by that cursed caged bird seal.

As long as there is even the slightest mention of breaking the seal, Neji will definitely take the bait.

"I'm talking about the caged bird on your forehead."

Danzo's voice was cold, but with unquestionable certainty: "As long as you join the root, I can help you untie it and completely get rid of the fate of being separated."

"This is impossible!"

Hearing this, Hyuga Neji said in a deep voice: "This seal is irreversible. It is a yoke of fate that members of the branch family must bear. Moreover, people from the branch family have joined ANBU before, and they have not been released."

The most important thing is that he also knows how to unlock this seal.

That is to go to Mr. Lin Mo's place to open the can and get something to solve the seal.

He is also planning to open a can after the exam.

My jar has not been opened yet.

Moreover, Hinata Hizu also communicated with him, and he knew that he did not need to worry about the seal on his head for the time being.

This was the guarantee Hinata Hizu gave him.

He just needs to unlock the seal on his forehead and resurrect his father.

All of this requires opening a can.

Does this guy also know about the jar shop?

Otherwise, why would you say this?

But Hinata Hizu said that even Konoha's Anbu have not paid attention to this jar shop so far.

This Danzo Shimura wants to trade this information with him?

"That's because they don't contribute enough."

At this time, Shimura Danzo, who heard Hyuga Neji's words, sneered again and again: "If you contribute enough, you will definitely be able to solve it. This is also a secret thing in the ANBU. Do you think these people from the branch family will tell the clan? Do people listen?”

"The Zong family enslaves them. Even if someone unlocks it, it is impossible to tell them."

"I, the ANBU, have been studying the caged bird of the Hyuga clan since I learned about it, and now we have achieved results."

"As long as you join the root, you will be the first person to release the caged bird from the Hinata branch!"

"This is the guarantee I, Danzo Shimura, give you on behalf of Konoha!"

Danzo said this, but he also sneered in his heart.

He certainly didn't know how to unseal the caged bird.

But none of this matters.

He just wanted to take advantage of Neji's desire and keep him firmly in the hands of the root.

"You don't need to answer me right away."

Danzo also knew not to act too hastily, so he immediately softened his tone and said with cold calculation in his eyes: "You can think about it carefully."

"You know, joining the Roots will not only help you escape the fate of being separated, but also give you a higher status in Konoha."

"One day you will understand that power and freedom come at a price."

Hearing this, Hinata Neji frowned and said nothing.

From this point, he judged that this bastard might be lying to him.

Because Hinata Hizu personally told him a few days ago that except for the clan and the mysterious jar shop, it was impossible for anyone to unlock the seal that penetrated the bloodline.

Even the ANBU of Naruto.

What kind of contribution does this guy make?

Are you trying to fool him?

Neji's mind was filled with thoughts, but he remained calm on the outside.

Then he turned and left without saying another word.

However, behind him, Danzo's eyes shone with the light of a successful conspiracy.

"Hmph, the kid from the separated family will fall into my hands sooner or later."

Danzo looked at Neji's back with a sneer.
