Hyuga's Rebellion

Chapter 22
The leaves in the sunset are very charming.

Especially standing on Huoyingyan watching this scene, it makes people feel a lot of emotion.

"It's really prosperous, this village!"

Wearing a gray vest, a man dressed as Otonin appeared on Hokage Rock. From his perspective, the entire Konoha could be seen.

"A product attached to the balance of great powers, it only takes a gust of wind to destroy this false prosperity!"

Squatting on top of Hokage Rock, Yao Shidou habitually supported the mirror frame on the bridge of his nose, with a false smile still hanging on the corner of his mouth.

"It's still the same sharp, Pouch!"

Under the setting sun, the man dressed in Yinyin spoke, his voice was a little hoarse but not without charm, but it added a strange charm to him. With the breeze blowing his long hair, it made him feel like he was lying all over his body. Filled with strange beauty.

"It's just a fact, Oshemaru-sama!"

It was rare to accompany this man to appreciate the sight of Konoha, and Yao Shidou's tone could not help but fluctuate a bit.

"You came from Shayin, how are you preparing there?"

Knowing the purpose of the man next to him, Orochimaru asked calmly as he stood on Hokage Rock and looked down at the tiny figure like an ant.

"It's all ready, and the rest is waiting for you to push this gust of wind, Oshemaru-sama!"

Standing up and walking around for a few steps, he appeared behind Orochimaru, looking at the prosperous Konoha below, his tone was full of emotion.

"That's good. It's time for this old man to retire. It's hard work to still stay in Hokage's position even though he's already quite old!"

Crossing his hands together, Orochimaru slightly looked at the village that had changed, with a hint of sadness in his tone.

……

In the old-fashioned courtyard under the setting sun, Ning Ci sat quietly cross-legged on the wooden floor of the corridor, looked up at the sunset and dusk, and there was something strange in his eyes.

"Is it going to start tomorrow?"

As if realizing something, the corner of Ning Ci's mouth was raised to show a trace of indifference.

"Let me see, Uzumaki Naruto, can fate be broken?"

Accompanied by the murmur to himself, Neji's right hand was inevitably clenched.

Tomorrow is not only the official start of Chunin selection, but also the day when Orochimaru's collapse plan begins. For Neji, it is the first step to break fate.

There is still the last day until the Chunin selection.

In the unknown hilly area outside Konoha Village, Kakashi was doing the final training with Sasuke.

"Chidori!"

Zizi's lightning flashed from his hand, and the Gouyu in Sasuke's eyes became three, and the sudden acceleration of the stab shattered the rock in front of him.

"Enough is enough, Sasuke!"

Seeing Sasuke who performed Chidori's breath and became short again, Kakashi raised his head and looked at the sky that was about to darken and said.

"I think I can hold on for a while!"

Wiping off the stains from the corner of his mouth, Sasuke staggered a few steps, still looking at Kakashi stubbornly.

"No, it has nothing to do with your wishes, unless you want to miss the Chunin exam!"

He raised his fingers to reject Sasuke's insistence, but there was something else in Kakashi's tone.

"You must have forgotten that the Chunin exam will start tomorrow, and we are a bit far away from the village. If we don't rest early, I'm afraid it will be too late."

Looking at Sasuke who has lost the concept of time in his practice, Kakashi shook his head helplessly and could only explain.

Hearing this, Sasuke's eyes flashed with anticipation, and he didn't hold on anymore, just like that, he put the weight of his whole body on the ground, Sasuke lying on the ground looked at the waning moon already visible in the night sky, the corner of his mouth twitched and he said.

"How far is the gap between me and him, Kakashi?"

"If you are the one who controls Chidori now, you probably only have a [-]% chance of winning against him!"

Although Kakashi didn't want to hit his disciple's motivation, he hesitated and gave his own judgment.

"Fifty percent, it's enough!"

Hearing this, Sasuke clenched his hands subconsciously.

"Don't be careless, Sasuke, although you copied my copy of Xiao Li's Taijutsu, but you have to understand that in terms of speed, Neji will be faster!"

Seeing Sasuke, who was compared with Neiji Hinata, Kakashi glanced worriedly, and chose to strike.

"I understand, Kakashi, that's all I want, the ability to stand in front of that guy!"

Lying flat on the ground, feeling the cool breeze blowing across his cheeks, Sasuke didn't refute, but just expressed his thoughts lightly.

As an avenger, he is already tired of his own powerlessness, and now he has the strength to stand on that guy to confirm himself, which is enough for Sasuke now.

Silent all night.

In the early morning, the streets of Konoha were already crowded with people.

As the twice-yearly grand assessment of the Fire Nation, Konoha invited many big names from small countries to watch this Chunin Exam to show their strength, not to mention the fact that many businessmen and civilians from neighboring countries flocked come over.

As a grand ceremony in the peaceful era, the selection of Chunin has given these ordinary people a good way of pastime.

"Ningji, are you ready?"

Tian Tian, ​​who specially put on a blue short-breasted shirt, appeared beside Ning Ci.

"Well, let's go."

Ning Ci watched the crowds around him with both eyes, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, is it about to start, Konoha's collapse plan!

Knowing this in his heart, Ning Ci sneered, unfortunately, for that nine-tailed boy, today might be the worst day ever!

You must know that I also deliberately prepared something, although it was not specially prepared for Naruto, but Neji didn't mind using it on him first.

Fate or something, it's up to me to break it!

Tian Tian, ​​who was on the side, obviously felt that Ning Ci had something more than usual, and looked at Ning Ci in surprise, but didn't think too much about it.

Sensing Tiantian's eyes lingering on him for a while, Ningci looked sideways slightly, making Tiantian's cheeks flush slightly, looking at the obviously shy girl, but Ningci didn't feel any emotion in his heart, instead, there was an unstoppable apology in it hovering.

Sorry, Tiantian, the next thing may make you unacceptable!

With the sigh hidden in his heart, Neci's occasionally soft heart became hard again.

No emotion will be revealed in the eyes, and there is no hesitation.

In order to break the fate, Ning Ci is doomed to give up certain things.

No longer confused or hesitant in his heart, Neji walked towards the examination room for the Chunin selection in an unusually calm manner.

After a while, Ning Ci and Tian Tian arrived at the examination room for the Chunin selection. This was an oval-shaped examination room filled with people from all over the world. Candidates in the examination room, the climax of cheers immediately spread throughout the entire examination room.
