In Ningji's opinion, this is the truth.

"So, the leader of the Hyuga clan in the Kingdom of Demons is..."

Neji's mind suddenly moved and he thought of something.

"Hyuga Ayane. It is said that her son, also representing the Kingdom of Demons, participated in this joint chuunin exam, and he has a big agenda. The Byakugan genin of the Demon Kingdom you saw is her and Chiba Shiraishi's.

Son."

Hizashi said.

Hinata Ayane, Neji heard this name from the clan leader Hizu.

But... Chiba Shiraishi? Ningci frowned and noticed something was wrong.

If he remembered correctly, the Genin of the Demon Country named Uchiha Asuka was also the son of the Minister of Military Affairs of the Demon Country, Chiba Shiraishi.

But the other party's maternal lineage was obviously from Uchiha.

Are these two half-brothers?

This is the only guess that is most consistent with the facts.

"Father, what is the clan's attitude toward the Hyuga clan in the Kingdom of Demons? They can't be indifferent to the defecting branch clan, right?"

Neji asked again.

"Although I have the intention to eradicate it, at present, it is a bit unrealistic. After all, the current comprehensive strength of the Demon Kingdom has probably surpassed the Fire Nation. If you want to eliminate the Hyuga clan over there, you must first defeat the Demon Kingdom military.

.”

This is the balance of power between countries.

If we were to make a direct comparison between Oni Country and Konoha, the gap would be even greater.

The Demon Country's military, which has the full support of the entire country, is by no means comparable to Konoha.

Let’s not talk about the competition between the two sides’ frontal combat capabilities. In terms of logistics, Konoha will definitely suffer in a war of attrition.

Hizashi, who comes from a wealthy family, naturally understands that the Land of Fire is the Land of Fire and Konoha is Konoha, and the two cannot be confused in many cases.

The separation of military and political power is not enough to describe the relationship between the village and the state. To be more precise, it is a separation of military and political power.

After hearing what Hizashi said, Neji felt very complicated.

He has accepted the traditional thinking of the Hyuga clan since he was a child. He is loyal to the family and the clan. The affairs of the clan are the unshirkable obligations and responsibilities of the family.

As a result, the majesty of the clan grew day by day in the family, and Ningji always had an attitude of fear and respect for those clan elders who dominated the family, so he kept away from them.

But now that he heard the news from Hizashi, it turned out that even the clansmen who were so majestic in his impression were actually powerless.

From this point of view, the so-called supreme majesty of the Zong family can only be displayed when facing the branch family controlled by the caged bird.

Once encounters exceed the limits of their rule, even if they are aloof, they are just ordinary mortals.

Thinking of those foreign people who had been freed from their shackles, for some reason, Neji felt envious and yearning in his heart.

It turns out that the caged bird also has the ability to break free from the cage and soar into the sky?

This is something he never imagined.

However, Neji did not immerse himself in such complicated emotions for too long before he came back to his senses and said to Hizashi: "Since fate has caused compatriots with the same blood to go against each other irreversibly, there is nothing we can do about it.

Things. I will go and meet the Hyuga clan in the Kingdom of Demons for a while. If possible, I hope that my father will also go to the Kingdom of Demons this time to watch my third game."

This is the main purpose of his coming back so soon.

After the list of qualified candidates is announced in the afternoon, they will immediately leave for the Kingdom of Wind to prepare for the second exam.

He hoped that Hizashi could witness his growth over the years.

Hizashi made a slight gesture of drinking tea.

"Are you so confident that you can pass the second exam smoothly, Neji?"

"Yes."

Neji's attitude was firm and his eyes did not waver.

Seeing Ningci's attitude, Hizashi sighed in his heart. Unlike him, although Ningci had accepted the idea of ​​loyalty to the clan since he was a child, he was still young and energetic and had a rebellious character. He didn't know that Ningci could be so rash.

Is it good or bad to come into contact with the Hyuga clan ninjas from the Kingdom of Demons?

However, since this is an order from the Zong family, as a ninja from the branch family, we really cannot refute it.

Sometimes, he didn't quite understand his brother's thoughts.

When you are gentle, you are too gentle; when you are cruel, you are too cruel.

Hizashi had almost forgotten what his brother looked like in his childhood memories.

"Although I also hope to watch your third game, my family will arrange important tasks for me next, so I'm sorry, Neji, but I can't go and cheer you on."

Hizashi said regretfully.

"Is it an important mission? That's right. Please forgive me for being rude, father."

Neji's eyes immediately flashed with a look of disappointment.
