Escape From Konoha
Vol 2 Chapter 53: Chunin Exam Opening (End)
On the wide open-air training ground, silhouettes of large and small figures intertwined with each other, condensing chakra in their palms, and swiping at each other with a seemingly soft force, which is a physical technique called 'soft fist'.
Different from Gangquan, which is tough and direct, mainly from external damage, Softquan focuses on the implementation of skills, which is the so-called softness to overcome rigidity.
The seemingly soft attack is surging and continuous, and once it is hit by a soft punch, it will cause internal damage that is invisible to the naked eye.
Among them, the soft boxing of the Hyuga clan is the most.
In addition to having a white eye, which observes the human body's meridian system, it has been developed to the extreme by the ninjas of the Hyuga clan. And soft boxing has gradually become the signature physique of the Hyuga clan. Speaking of soft boxing, the first thing ninjas think of is the giant Hyuga.
Standing under the corridor of the eaves, as the patriarch of the clan, Hizu was only wearing a thin coat, and he held a light green teacup in his hand. There was half a cup of hot tea in the teacup, which was steaming white. . .
He stared unblinkingly at the large and small figures on the training ground not far away.
Hinata Hana, and a special Joinin from the Hinata branch.
Looking at the two figures with their bodies staggering back and forth and their feet turning sharply in the field, there was a color of approval in the eyes of the sun, and the occasional nod gesture represented that he recognized the growth of his second daughter Hana, and he was not dissatisfied. meaning.
"Master Sunzu."
A relatively immature voice came from his ear.
Hizu turned his head, and a thirteen or fourteen-year-old white-eyed boy stood in front of him and bowed respectfully to him. It was his nephew, Neji Hyuga.
As a well-known genius of the branch family, he has shown talents that many clan ninjas have envied since childhood. If he hadn't grown up in the branch family, perhaps a very remarkable ninja would have appeared in the Hyuga clan.
But since he is a member of the branch, no matter how talented he is, no matter how he regrets the ability of the other party, he can only be locked in a bird cage by the clan and bound by the iron law of the clan.
"You're here, Neji."
"Yes. I didn't know that Lord Sunzu came to me. Do you have any instructions?"
Neji looked at Hizu with a hint of complexity in his eyes, but he quickly disappeared and lowered his head to avoid being seen by Hizu.
As he grew older, Neji's cognition of the worldview became more and more mature, and the more he grew up, the more Neji could feel the family's limitations and constraints on him.
This kind of restraint is not only the usual code of conduct, the clan should be given priority in everything, and even the strength to go further is suppressed.
Because in the Hyuga clan, only the clan is qualified to learn advanced soft boxing skills, but the branch wants to learn, but needs extremely harsh conditions, and needs the consent of the clan to learn.
This is to prevent the division of the family from grasping too much power, thus threatening the benign rule of a family. Because only the clan occupies the dominant position of the absolute, the Hyuga clan can continue stably.
However, the clan often asks the branch for protection, and instead of granting more powerful soft boxing techniques, it restricts the growth of the branch ninja everywhere... Then what's the point of such protection?
For Neji, the more time he spends in this family, the more weird his family feels.
Not only the rules of the family, but the people of the family, and every existence in the family that has a 'history' seems extremely absurd and strange.
But his father told him to learn "forbearance", learn to hide his true emotions, and not to express hatred and dissatisfaction with everything in the Zong family.
Because resistance will kill you.
Betrayal kills.
Neji thought of the 'caged bird' planted on his forehead when he was young. Even in the face of relatives like Hizu, on the one hand, he wanted to get close, but on the other hand, he felt that such relatives were too strange and distant.
Because we are in two worlds.
There is a division of 'personality levels' between them.
Not only Hizu, but even the cousins Hinata and Hana, who were very fond of when they were young, were also unfamiliar to Neji after graduating from the ninja school.
My cousin, in their eyes, what is it?
tool? Guard? Or relatives?
"You should know about the joint Chunin exam soon."
Although Hizu was in doubt, he was sure that Neji knew about it.
Neji also put his mind away from his wild thoughts, nodded, and replied, "Yes, Lord Rizu, Teacher Kai has already told us about this."
"Kai Shangnin? He's an excellent Shangnin."
The sun was full of admiration.
Hizu's admiration, Neji also agreed.
His mentor, Jōnin Matekai, is indeed a powerful jōnin.
Although he is good at soft boxing, which is the opposite of soft boxing, he can also give him a lot of inspiration in soft boxing.
After all, soft boxing and rigid boxing are still very similar in some places, but the way of power is somewhat different.
"This joint Chunin exam, the elites of the six major countries will gather together. On the family side, it is decided that you and Hinata will participate."
Rizu stared in the direction of the training ground and said calmly.
"Miss Hinata?"
Neji's face moved slightly.
"Any questions?"
"With all due respect, Miss Hinata... is not suitable for such an exam."
Neji hesitated for a moment, but finally said this sentence.
Whether it's because of the concept of 'master' for Hinata, or because of the family affection that has not deteriorated in childhood, Neji feels that a gentle lady like Hinata is not suitable for the Chunin exam. Such a brutal knockout.
In particular, this joint Chunin exam was not held by the Konoha family, which also meant that the mortality rate of this Chunin exam was much higher than previous ones.
As a member of the clan, it was too risky for Hinata to take such an exam. If the other party made a mistake, Neji felt that he couldn't take such a responsibility.
"...Actually, this is Hinata's own request."
Hizu was silent for a while, picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and said slowly.
Neji raised his head slightly, surprise and puzzlement in his eyes.
Miss Hinata...my own will?
"I watched Hinata grow up. I know her character very well. Sometimes she is very weak, but sometimes she is stubborn and very troublesome."
Rizu gave a wry smile.
"But……"
"That's why I asked you to come here because I hope you can help me take care of Hinata during the exam. She doesn't need to pass the Chunin exam, just keep her safe."
Said the day.
"Yes, I understand."
In fact, Neji had no right to refuse.
Rizu is not only his elder, but also the head of the clan. This is both a request from the elders, but also an order.
Just like Hinata's dual identity, he is both his 'master' and his sister.
The purpose of the separation is to protect the sect. This rule, even in this day and age, still has to be firmly implemented.
"Besides, there is one more thing. This time, the fireworks festival will represent me and visit the land of ghosts during the Chunin exam period."
Hizu remembered something, and then said to Neji.
Neji's eyes widened with a look of disbelief.
"Visit the land of ghosts? Why does Miss Hana want to..."
Not only Hinata, but even Hana, who is the second daughter, has to leave Konoha during the Chunin exam. Isn't the Zong family worried about the safety of these two?
"Before that, I want to ask a question."
Rizu turned his head and stared at Ningci's shocked face.
"question?"
"Do you know Hyuga Ayane?"
"..."
Neji frowned, thinking hard in his head, and found that he didn't have any memory of 'Hyuga Ayane' in his mind, so he shook his head.
"It's normal for people of your generation to not know."
Rizu sighed lightly.
It is not only the senior officials of Konoha who block information, but also within the Hyuga clan, it is also forbidden for any clan to discuss the name 'Hyuga Ayane' in private.
It was as if by erasing the name, it was as if nothing had happened.
But unfortunately, even if the scars are hidden, the day will come to reveal the truth sooner or later.
"She is……"
"The sinners of the Hyuga clan. However, since you don't know it, forget it. Anyway, after you go to the country of ghosts, you will understand everything that happened. I will make arrangements for Hana, and I will ask you for Hinata. If it can't be done, then I will destroy Hinata's eyes."
Hearing Rizu's words, Neji's body froze, and he slowly raised his head. What he saw was Rizu's indifferent calm face, and his heart was cold.
"……Yes."
A heartache for no reason, Neji didn't know what that feeling was.
But for the first time, he developed an extremely disgusting feeling for the family, which made him not want to stay by Hizu's side for a moment.
◎
"Father."
"what?"
At the dinner table, hearing Neji's cry, Rizai raised his head slightly and looked at his son.
"What is the meaning of the existence of the clan and the branch?"
When Neji asked this sentence, confusion appeared in his eyes for the first time.
After returning from the Zong family, he fell into this confusion.
In the past, he would never ask these topics unrelated to cultivation.
Rizai noticed that something was wrong with Neji's emotions, and knew that something happened to him that he didn't know about.
"Can you tell me, did you hear anything?"
As a person who has come here, it is very clear that Neji is aware of some 'dirty' in the family. Although this realization was awakened very late, Niji hoped that Neji would not think about such things.
Because the more you understand, the more you can feel how depressed and confused every day is as a member of the separated family.
"Hizu-sama asked me to protect Miss Hinata during the Chunin exam."
"anything else?"
"If it really doesn't work, let me destroy Miss Hinata's eyes."
Neji told the truth, because his father was the only person he could talk to about his anguish. He also hopes to get the answer from his father's daily errand.
After listening to the day difference, there was a brief silence.
"...Is this what he said?"
"yes."
"This is the 'love' of the clan for their children."
The day difference replied.
"Love?"
"In order to avoid the loss of white eyes, this is the only way to do it. It's like... the curse mark carved by the Zong family on our foreheads. Now it's just another way to present the curse mark to the Zong family's own people in another form. Just on the body."
Days difference sighed.
If you want to live in the Hyuga clan, you must suppress your feelings. Especially between the clan and the branch, the existence of family, friendship, and love beyond the "hierarchy" means the birth of tragedy.
When the life of one party is completely in the hands of the other party, even if the dominant party gives kindness, in the eyes of the dominated party, this is just a hypocritical sympathy and charity from the other party.
When emotions need mercy and charity, it means injustice, and it also means that such emotional concepts are gradually distorted in the process of growth.
It's not 'love', it's domination.
Even if this is not the intention, such **** will eventually form.
For a time, five flavors were mixed in Ningji's heart.
"Ningji, don't have the so-called brother-sister relationship with Hinata and Hana in the future. Treat them as 'superior', so you will live a little easier. The living method of dividing the family. Although they are of the same clan, they are also enemies."
Rizai admonished Neji like this, biting **** the word 'enemy'.
Neji was eating rice, and the taste was as uncomfortable as chewing wax.
"Dad... did you accept all this?"
Neji asked a little unwillingly.
Rizai sighed, took a bite of rice, and said with a smile: "everyone who was separated once wanted to rebel against the world, but in the end, it was changed by this world. We are not losers, we are just born in this way."
"Then, if you gain the right to speak in the village..."
"Do you think a person whose life is controlled by others is qualified to be the decision maker of the village? From the very beginning, ninjas who have been separated from their families have not enjoyed the power that normal ninjas should have."
The day difference did not hesitate to deny.
"However, the separation of the family has made a lot of contributions to the village over the years. If the village is willing to intervene..."
Looking at Neji, who was getting more and more excited, Niizai still had a calm face, and asked Neji:
"Ningji, do you think... our split family really likes this village?"
"What's the meaning?"
Neji looked at the somewhat unfamiliar father, breathing a little suffocated.
"Just as the village doesn't care about us, the ninja who split the family will not have any sense of identity with the village. The split family performs tasks for the life and death of the village, and it is only subject to the orders of the clan. You have to understand, the will of fire. That's something the clan may believe in, but our split family is not qualified to believe in the will of fire."
There is no human rights, how can I have the qualifications, and have time to believe in the will of fire.
The branch family only needs to follow behind the Zong family.
For example, family separation cannot have the opportunity to make decisions in the village, then, naturally, the will of fire has nothing to do with separation.
The reason why the branch fights for Konoha is just because of the Zong family.
The branching family relies on the Zongjia to exist, and the Zongjia relies on Konoha to exist, but it does not mean that the branching family belongs to Konoha. The division is only the private property of the clan, and has nothing to do with Konoha.
Neji felt that his original three-view value was being trampled on the soles of his feet, and then he picked it up again and shaped a new outlook on life.
But because this new outlook on life is too rough and straightforward, he now feels a little unreal.
Looking at the father who fought **** battles for the village on weekdays and was on the front line, in fact, the true feelings hidden in his heart were complete indifference and ignorance of the village.
Only a young bird like him who can't see the truth will be complacent there, try his best to integrate into the village, and have a good relationship with his companions.
And there are many such branched ninjas.
If most of the branch ninjas were warm to the village on the surface, but extremely indifferent on the inside, Neji felt shivering just thinking about it.
"If you want to deceive the enemy, you must deceive yourself first, Neji... I don't want to interfere too much with your path, but I hope you live well."
For the daily life that has become numb to the future, the only hope for survival is the child Neji.
In the past, he also hoped for brotherly love, father-son love, but in the end he got an extremely desperate fact.
That's why he hoped that Neji would break the brother-sister relationship with Hinata and Hana as soon as possible, and regard them as his 'superior', the best choice for him and them.
"I see, father, I'll think about it seriously."
Neji put down the dishes, left the dining table, and walked into his room.
Rizai looked at the rest of the food in Neji's place, sighed again, and said nothing, just hoped that Neji could recognize his position in the family as soon as possible and do what he should do.
Whether it is the village or the companions, those who are separated can only hug together to keep warm.
Because only from here, can the separated people find a trace of warmth that belongs to the world and prove the fact that they are still alive.
◎
September 11, morning.
Four days before the opening of the Joint Chunin Exam.
Although there are still four days left before the official start of the Joint Chunin Exam, the Genin from various countries participating in this Joint Chunin Exam has already prepared in advance.
The location of the first exam will be held in Konoha, in other words, we must arrive at Konoha before September 15th.
Ninjas from the remote country of Konoha, the land of fire, either set off yesterday or started their journey today, arriving at Konoha Ninja Village one day or two days before the exam to take the first exam of the joint Chunin exam.
Because it is a joint examination of various countries, the genin who participated are very excited. For those who are confident in their strength, they can't wait to fly to Konoha immediately to show their powerful strength and win glory for their Shinobi village.
The situation in the country of ghosts is similar.
On the train platform in Ziyuan City, the capital, there are already crowds of people, and there are scenes of farewells everywhere.
Parents who can't worry about their children traveling far away from other countries will say goodbye to their children here on the platform.
In such an atmosphere, even powerful ninjas from various countries like Shiraishi, Ruri, and Ayane were just ordinary parents who came to see off their children.
"The two of you remember that although the first test of the Chunin Exam is a competition test, it is usually not difficult, but if you are not careful, you will fall into other people's traps."
Looking at Asuka and Aya standing in front of him, Shiraishi said earnestly.
Although he is very confident in his child's strength, at this moment, Shiraishi, like an ordinary father, is beginning to worry about gains and losses.
Not afraid of 10,000, but the mentality of what to do is exposed.
It also makes sense for Shiraishi, who is accustomed to doing everything after doing anything.
"Got it, Dad, you've been saying this since last night. Cai and I have already remembered it."
Bird sighed.
This is the first time I have seen a father who is worried about gains and losses like this.
Obviously, as the parties, they don't feel nervous, but as the elders of the outsiders, they are worried instead.
They had been trained from outside a few days ago and returned to the country of ghosts, and they had already adjusted their state to a perfect level.
Even going to an unfamiliar country to take an exam, there is no fluctuation in his heart.
No matter how difficult the exam is, it will definitely be harder than their previous experience of fighting to the death with the two Shangin.
"After all, the old man is also old, and it is inevitable that he likes to look forward to things in these years. Don't worry about it."
Kazuhime on the side said in a rude tone.
Shiraishi glared over in dissatisfaction.
But she was ignored by Kazuhime, and she continued to say to Asuka Kazuya: "Before the third exam starts, I will go to the Land of Wind to pick you up. If you are caught in the first or second exam by then, If you are eliminated, don't blame me for writing the word 'miscellaneous fish' on both sides of your face with oily pen and show it to everyone."
Whether it was Asuka or Cai, hearing Yiji's words, they couldn't help shivering.
They knew that Kazuhime was the kind of person who absolutely did what she said.
That is to say, if the two of them are eliminated in the first and second exams, the other party will definitely write the words "miscellaneous fish" on both sides of their faces.
"Oh, it looks like a lot of fun. Then, I'll punish you too. If you fail in the first two exams, just write some funny words on your foreheads."
Ayane walked over with a smile, as if it wasn't a big deal.
"Don't come and join in the fun, Ayane Ayane."
Bird got a headache.
"You don't have to listen to them, you two just do your best."
Lucy said something at this time.
Before Asuka and Cai were moved, Liuli said again:
"If you lose, freeze your personal accounts."
"..."
Asuka and Aya's body began to tremble with fear.
Compared with some strange words written on the face, how to see the punishment of personal account freezing is a devilish act.
Asuka and Cai glanced at each other, and both could see the seriousness in the other's eyes.
In order to prevent the bank's personal account from being frozen~www.readwn.com~ It is not acceptable to give 100%, and we must take the Chunin exam seriously with 1000% enthusiasm!
"Then and I will leave first, it's almost time to start."
Asuka looked at the time, it was time for the train to depart.
"Go ahead, be careful in the second test. If you can beat it, cut the grass and root it out, and don't leave any hidden dangers. If you can't beat it, just run away. Don't feel ashamed."
Shiraishi finally asked a word.
As the original initiator of the Joint Chunin Exam, he naturally knew what the specific contents of the three exams were.
Compared with the written part of the first game, the second test is the real knockout. In the process of elimination, there will inevitably be battles and death.
It's just because of the rules, he couldn't tell Asuka and Cai the specific test content, so he could only let them deal with it carefully.
"Yes."
Asuka and Cai nodded solemnly, and under the watchful eyes of Shiraishi and others, they carried their travel bags and slowly boarded the carriage.
"Then, it's time for me to set off for the Land of Wind. The handover before the third exam should be done well."
Although not as the chief examiner of the third exam, Kazuhime is also on the extradition mission in the third exam.
Candidates who pass the first and second exams will gather in the country of wind, and then transfer from the country of wind to the country of ghosts. At that time, it is Ichiji who will be responsible for the extradition of candidates on behalf of the country of ghosts.
The three of Shiraishi didn't say anything about being careful. With Kazuhime's already formed strength, as long as they didn't encounter some special situations, they basically wouldn't encounter any danger.
After Kazuhime and Shiroishi said their goodbyes, they walked towards another train, where there were already several Kaminos of the Ghost Country waiting for her to act together and head to the Country of Wind.
