Chapter 1199 Ningci
Although Duran wanted to change the content of the Genin Exam, it was a pity that such a large-scale reform would not be accepted by the ninjas of Konoha Village, nor would the ninjas of other villages. So he gave up in the end, but Duran was a man of status after all, so he got a chance to add more questions.
Not bad, anyway, Duran didn't force it.
The Chunin Exam officially entered the registration stage, and Kai led the third team to choose whether to participate in the exam. Kai meant that they could try: "Although it's a little early, you are the three best students in your graduating class, so I think you should challenge it."
"Teacher Kai, I want to participate." Rock Lee was 100% determined to participate, he liked challenges.
Tiantian said it didn't matter, she could participate or not, "Ningji, what about you? If you all participate, I will participate too."
Ningji thought about it and said he would participate: "There will be many young ninjas from other villages in the Chunin Exam, I hope to learn from them."
"Ningji, you are indeed my nemesis, you can even think of fighting with ninjas from other villages, so youthful, I am so excited."
"Since the three of you have decided to participate, then sign the registration form." Kai was ready: "We have been away from the village for a few months, but there are still a few days before the exam. It's time for a youthful intensive training. We must treat the Chunin Exam in the best condition."
"Kai, do you have time?" Just when Kai rolled up his sleeves to train his three apprentices, it was Duran who came to Kai.
"Mr. Duran?" Kai still respected Duran very much, "What's the matter?"
"It's like this, didn't I also get the opportunity to arrange the test, so I want to ask a few jonin for help. I wonder if you are free during the Chunin Exam?"
Tiantian saw Duran with stars in her eyes. Under Duran's teaching, her combat effectiveness is no longer a drag.
But Neji was in a complicated mood. Although he often saw Duran, Duran was Hinata's adoptive father and also Hinata's master. Psychologically, Neji knew that he and Duran were not the same kind of people, but he also longed to be taught by Duran. A good teacher produces good students. There is no weak student who accepts Duran's direct teaching, not to mention the strong ones like Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Shisui.
Although Itachi and Shisui defected, the people in the village have a high opinion of them.
"Of course I have time." After the exam started, Kai had nothing to do, so he could help.
"Then I'll come to you then." Duran found a few senior ninjas to help arrange his own exam questions, and Kai was the last one. When he left, he found that Neji was looking at him with complicated eyes. Duran thought to himself that this kid was so entangled at such a young age. Isn't his father still alive? Why didn't he teach him to love the Hyuga family and Konoha Village and be a four-have ninja?
It can only be said that Ningci's ambition is higher than the sky, and he naturally does not want to accept the fate of being suppressed for a lifetime as a branch family. Unfortunately, he cannot resist and is even more frustrated.
"Mr. Duran, thank you for your advice before." Tiantian bowed to Duran.
"You and I are just destined to be together." Duran still likes Tiantian: "Remember, space ninjutsu is unpredictable. Don't restrict your imagination. You will definitely become a powerful ninja."
"Yes!" Tiantian answered loudly.
Then Duran suddenly looked at Ningci: "Ningci, come with me." "Kai, I have something private to do with Ningci. Do you mind?"
"You two can chat first." "Ningci, we will wait for you at the No. 3 training ground."
Ningci nodded. He didn't know why Duran was looking for him: "Uncle Duran." Ningci is Hinata's cousin, and Duran is Hinata's adoptive father. According to the seniority, Ningci should call Duran uncle.
"Come with me." Duran took Ningci to the remote suburbs, which was surrounded by trees and generally few people came.
Ningci was getting more and more confused, wondering what they were doing in such a remote place, but he just followed Duran silently, and only saw Duran stop when they entered the center of the forest.
"?" Ningci had a lot of questions in his mind, and he thought, what is this for?
"If I meet Hinata in the Chunin Exam..."
Ningci's heart skipped a beat, and he thought, could it be that even Duran wanted to plead for Hinata and let him show mercy? Ningci and Hinata had sparred during the family ceremony. In Ningci's opinion, Hinata's boxing skills were exquisite but hesitant and weak, which was a waste of Duran's resources. It was only because his father kept saying that the brother should give in to his sister that Ningci showed mercy and didn't let Hinata lose so badly. Everyone in the family knew that Hinata's strength was very poor, not as good as her sister Hanabi.
So when Duran suddenly mentioned Hinata, Ningci knew it was not good. He clenched his fists, feeling bad. Could it be that because she was from the main family, she could get care no matter how bad she was, while he himself could not get promoted no matter how good he was because he was in the branch family? Why is the world so unfair?
"I understand. If I meet her, I will give her the qualification for promotion. I will admit defeat." Although his heart was filled with humiliation, Neji knew that when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. This is fate. Fate has arranged for him to become a branch family and he is destined to dedicate everything to the main family.
Duran thought that this kid thought too much: "Ningci, you don't know what I'm going to say. Arbitrariness will become a ninja's weakness." "I don't need you to admit defeat, I need you to protect Hinata. According to reliable intelligence, there are many evil forces preparing to attack Konoha Village during the Chunin Exam. I suspect that their target is the younger generation of Konoha ninjas. So I hope you can protect Hinata's safety."
Although he didn't want him to admit defeat, Ningci was reluctant to protect Hinata.
"You seem to hate Hinata." Duran said, and suddenly shook his head: "No, you don't just hate Hinata, you also hate the entire main family."
Ningci didn't admit or deny it. In fact, anyone with a discerning eye could see Ningci's temper. But they wouldn't say anything. The branch family has been resentful of the main family for a long time, and not everyone is willing to be a servant from birth.
"You don't have to be so serious. I called you to such a remote place not just to tell you about Hinata's safety. I still have to tell you the truth."
"..."Ningci looked at Duran puzzledly, not knowing what truth he was going to say.
Duran was calm and composed, as if he had merged into the forest. He liked to act like a master before attacking someone: "The truth is that the Byakugan of your Hyuga family is really a mess. It is not the caged bird curse of the branch family that restricts your future, but your Byakugan."
Hyuga Neji was stunned when Duran described the Byakugan, which has always been known as one of the three major eye techniques, as a mess. Although he has always disliked the identity of the branch family, he has always been proud of his Byakugan. But today Duran actually said that Byakugan was rubbish, which had a huge impact on Neji's young mind.
