Naruto just wants to be a god of death.

Chapter 177: The Cage Opens and the Bird Flies (Second Update!)
Hinata Hizashi is in pain.

He didn't know what to do.

She wanted to persuade Neji to give up the idea of ​​"untying the bird from the cage", but when they were alone, she couldn't say such words.

If it weren't for the fact that Minato Namikaze's child came from the future, he would have wanted to ask Naruto to remove his own curse as well.

Yes.

What imprisoned bird doesn't want to escape?

I think so too.

But on the other hand
He was actually a little jealous.

The tip of the iceberg of the future is already in front of us.

I will sacrifice myself for the Hyuga family.

You can’t unlock the “bird in the cage” by yourself.

This negative emotion lingering in his mind almost became a real obsession, making him subconsciously want to stop it.

A month later.

Xiao Li and Tian Tian were discovered.

The Kingdom of Loulan, a tall tower that seals the "Dragon Vein".

"Are we going back?" Xiao Li was shocked. "We have just arrived in this era!"

"I also want to see Mr. Kai when he was young."

Kakashi rolled his dead fish eyes and said, "No need to look, just look in the mirror."

"You're really not Kai's child?"

"Of course not." Xiao Li pinched his waist and laughed shyly and proudly, "Are Teacher Kai and I so similar?"

Tenten said nothing, looking up at Neji.

A boy with white eyes.
No, after four years of growth, the boy has become an adult.

He looked towards Naruto, bowed and requested, "Naruto-sama, please help me untie the caged bird right here."

"Lady Hinata, do you really support Neji?" Hyuga Hizashi asked.

Naruto ignored him and waved his hand.

Neji knelt in front of him.

Hinata didn't want to answer, but she looked at Naruto, then at Karin, and thought of what she said that night, and clenched her fists: "I support him."

"This thing called 'protection' is no different from imprisonment."

“It shouldn’t exist anymore.”

"and"

"This is what Naruto agreed to."

"Don't mention me or Uncle Hiashi. Even the Hyuga family doesn't have the ability to change Naruto's will."

As she spoke.

Naruto reached out and touched the "cursed seal" on Neji's forehead.

A vague shadow emerged from within the body.

It's his soul.

However, Naruto didn't pull it out completely, only the head came out of the body.

But even "soul".

"Bird in a Cage" is also engraved on the forehead, even more vividly.

"The art of spiritualization?" Qiu Daodingzuo murmured.

Naruto glanced at him, his hands moving non-stop.

The fingertips performed the technique, and the few chakras in the soul surged and formed a formation, completely covering the "bird in the cage" curse.

The green "diagonal cross" shaped curse mark was erased bit by bit.

This is a transformation from the depths of the soul.

Erase something that has been deeply rooted in the soul for decades and is extremely stubborn.

Just like Naruto said.

The curse seal was not complicated, but Neji's soul and strength were too weak, and he suffered tremendous pain during the process.

The soul trembles and flickers.

Until the last bit of "green" was wiped out.

The suffering was ended.

Naruto stuffed Neji's soul back into his body, "That's good."

Hinata Hizashi murmured: "It turns out that 'Bird in a Cage' can really be cracked."

"All seals and confinements have ways to be broken." Naruto looked at him and answered casually, "No one has done it before."

"Because you don't want to learn."

"No one else dares to risk offending the Hyuga clan."

Hyuga Hiashi looked at him and said: "Aren't you afraid of offending the Hyuga clan? We are..."

He didn't finish his sentence.

The reactions of the people around him made him hesitate.

Karin couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Naruto smiled and shook his head.

Neji clicked his tongue.

Hinata looked at herself worriedly.

It was as if what he had just said was a "joke".

"I'm not afraid of the Hyuga clan." Neji held onto the floor and struggled to stand up, "Let alone Naruto."

Hinata Hizashi lowered his head and said nothing more.

"In fact, you should have guessed it." Neji continued, raising his hand to touch his forehead.

Tiantian took out the mirror and handed it to him.

Neji took it, reflecting a smooth, white forehead.

Hinata Hizashi said softly: "Yeah, I guessed it."

"You are my child."

"As for Lady Hinata, she is my brother's child."

Neji was reluctant to let go of the mirror. He looked past it and looked at his father: "I have dreamed many times about how happy I would be after I broke this abominable curse."

"but"

"But now I can't simulate the emotions that appeared in the dream."

"Originally, I was planning to return to the future and then ask Lord Naruto to remove the curse."

"It wasn't until I was standing here, about to go back, that I realized I had to let you see it with your own eyes."

"From today on, the cage of the branch family has been completely broken."

Naruto stretched out his hands, summoned a scroll, and threw it into Neji's arms.

"This is a technique to break the caged bird." He introduced, "Even without my help, an ordinary jonin can break this curse."

Neji solemnly put it away. Hyuga Hizashi's eyes followed the scroll and he sighed: "This is a disaster for the Hyuga family."

"For the main family, maybe." Neji shook his head, "But for the branch family, definitely not."

Hinata Hizashi didn't say anything else.

Naruto reached out and unfolded the curse on the ground.

The dragon vein was opened, and a stream of purple chakra poured out.

"Are we going back?" Namikaze Minato said softly, "Naruto, since you are also good at sealing techniques, you can seal our memories."

"It's safer for you to do it than for me to do it."

Naruto nodded.

Tens of minutes later.

The purple light gradually subsided.

The five members of the team stood there in confusion, not knowing what to do.

"How did we get here?" Kakashi looked around with a confused look in his eyes.

I shouldn't have just set out from Konoha.

How come I'm here all of a sudden?

The spell and seal before me looked more and more like a "dragon vein".

Minato Namikaze was the first to react. He could feel that there was a seal in his brain that hid a "memory".

As expected, this memory is the entire process from leaving the village until just now.

He subconsciously wanted to capture the "Seal".

although
There was no sign of resistance on his body, and he had never activated the "Flying Thunder God Technique". All the specially made kunai were in his bag.

This means that the seal was left there voluntarily.

Untie it and it won't work.

But he wanted to read some traces from the "seal" to see if he could find any clues.

Surprisingly.

He couldn't capture the "seal".

The person who set up this "seal" is extremely skilled, the best person he has ever seen in his life.

Even Uzumaki Mito's level is slightly lower than his.

"Teacher?" Kakashi looked up.

"It seems that the rumors are true." Minato said softly, he turned his head and looked at Hyuga Hizashi, "I'm sorry, Lord Hizashi, before I came here, I concealed a piece of news from you."

"The White Eyes that appeared in Loulan are suspected to be people who have returned from the future."

"Now it seems."

"indeed so."

“And we should have had deep contact with them.”

He tilted his head and said, "There are six people, um. There are summoned beasts such as ninja dogs and ninja cats."

The footprints on the ground left a lot of information.

But these are all that can be captured.

Aburame Shiwei raised her hand and said in a heavy tone, "My parasite is missing a part."

"The traces of death are very fresh."

"I should have wanted to retain the other party's chakra, but they noticed it."

Namikaze Minato's expression was serious: "Fortunately, the other party found out. This was a very dangerous behavior."

"We shouldn't interfere in any way with the future."

"Continue the search in Loulan."

"Once the results are confirmed, report back to the village."

The others in the team responded.

This little setback in the past has no impact on the future.

In the abandoned tower of the ancient kingdom of Loulan.

The six people landed safely.

"I'm back." Tiantian poked his head out and saw the abandoned centipede puppet still lying on the ground. No dust had accumulated and it seemed that time had not changed.

The dragon vein still glows purple.

A huge, intense surge of chakra.

Naruto walked closer, stretched out his hand, mobilized his spiritual energy, and began the technique.

To seal this "chakra".

"Naruto-sama," Neji said as he approached, bowing in greeting, "I will be leaving you for a while."

"Except for the mission to report to Konoha."

"There are also some family matters to deal with."

Naruto nodded, "Go ahead."

"I am extremely sorry, Lord Naruto." Neji bowed and apologized, "I made a willful and selfish decision."

"If I die in Konoha this time"

Naruto tilted his head to look at him and smiled, "Don't be afraid of death."

"Just feel free to do what you want to do."

"It's hard to explain now, but you should understand that Seireitei is an organization of 'souls'."

"Even after your death, you can continue to serve me."

Neji looked up, looked at Naruto in surprise, and nodded: "Yes, Naruto-sama."

He waved his hand, and the team left instantly.

Naruto carefully sealed the "Dragon Vein".

"Are we going to the Land of Demons next?" Karin waited for him to put away the scroll, then stood on tiptoe as the tower swayed and asked.

"Do you want to see what happens when Neji returns to Konoha?" Naruto looked at her and smiled.

Karin nodded, "Yeah, I'm curious."

"Naruto you didn't just undo his curse seal."

"I also gave him the secret of how to break the caged bird."

"It feels like something big is going to happen in Konoha."

Naruto pulled her along and walked out of the tower in a flash: "I'm also curious about what Neji will choose to do."

"I am more curious about what choice the Hyuga clan and Konoha will make at this time."

"Go and have a look."

There is plenty of time.

The land of fire, Konoha.

After half a day's journey, Neji and his friends returned to the village.

but.
He did not report the news immediately, but went directly to the Hyuga clan.
