Naruto just wants to be a god of death.

Chapter 182 I like Naruto the most!
There was an immediate and wonderful change in Hinata.

From a little girl to a responsible adult.

Not just incense.

The people of the Hyuga family were also surprised.

This is completely different and opposite to their impression of the "eldest daughter of the clan".

"I, I know you don't trust me that much." Hinata looked at the family members, and caught a glimpse of a golden figure in her peripheral vision, holding her fists to her chest, "But I will do my duty, and try my best to do what the head of the family should do before Brother Neji comes back."

“Now only I can do it.”

The clan members' expressions eased a bit.

Even if Hinata made that choice a few days ago, she is still a member of the main family and the daughter of Hyuga Hiashi. With her in charge of the Hyuga family, their lives should be better.

The branches of the family discussed in a low voice; they were not very willing to agree.

After all, Hinata is the "eldest daughter of the clan". She and Neji rebelled against the Hyuga family's system together, so what?

These four words are the labels engraved on her since she was born.

Neji took a step forward.

The branches immediately stopped the discussion.

Hinata spoke first: "Brother Neji, plant the caged bird in me too."

Ning Ci was taken aback.

The branches were also stunned.

He looked at her in disbelief.

Hinata is the only one of the main family who has not been treated as a "caged bird".

The families had no objection to this.

Just as she said, she was the only one, as the head of the family, who was against this system of "head family enslaving the separate family".

The fact that she was not cursed was one of her "trophies" as a victor.

But she's asking for it now?
"Everyone's caged bird will be released sooner or later." Hinata raised her hand and pushed back her bangs, "Since I am going to be their acting head of the family with the identity of the former head family, I must do something to gain their trust."

"it is necessary."

Neji locked eyes with her.

The timid girl now had an unusual determination in her eyes.

"I see." He nodded.

He made Hinata kneel down, made a seal, and left a green diagonal cross seal on her forehead.

The families were moved.

Someone stood up and bowed, "Master Hinata, please give me your guidance."

like
It is not a bad thing to let such a person lead.

The big things were over, and some minor corrections were made. All the complicated etiquette, especially those related to the "main family" and "branch family", were abandoned by Neji.

Wait till all this is dealt with.

Neji followed Naruto and was about to step out of the Hyuga family's gate.

Hinata chased after him.

"Naruto-kun." She stopped a few steps away and called out.

Naruto turned back.

"I think." Hinata mustered up her courage, "Before, I was weak and timid, so I didn't dare to express my feelings or do anything."

"But I'm going to change now."

"and--"

She took a deep breath and said loudly, "Naruto-kun is wrong!"

"Big mistake."

"What I like is not some vision of my own fantasy."

"I just love Naruto-kun the most!"

These words exhausted all her strength.

Same as a year and a half ago.

But the difference is that she is no longer confused.

Knowing what the outcome she wanted after confessing her feelings was: "I no longer want to kidnap Naruto-kun with my heart like I did a year ago."

"I just want Naruto-kun to know."

"No matter how long it takes."

"I will work hard, and sooner or later I will be qualified to stand by your side."

"I have always, always, always loved Naruto-kun the most."

Her expression and tone were very firm.

"Hinata." Naruto smiled at her.

Hinata was nervous.

Xianglin held her hand.

"It's a great decision today." Naruto grinned and gave her a thumbs up.

Hinata was stunned and smiled brightly.

He waved goodbye.

Hinata did not try to persuade him to stay and stayed at the door. She only turned around and went back into the mansion after seeing the figure disappear.

Tenten stood on the wall of the Hyuuga residence.

"Aren't you going to follow Neji?" Kai asked softly, standing beside her.

Tenten shook her head, "No, Neji will come back."

"The me now."

Although she went to help yesterday.

But it had almost no effect.

The Hyuga family's "Kaiten" is extremely effective against ninja tools like her, and she finds it difficult to deal with two or three Chunins.

I used to think I was stronger than Hinata.

It’s much worse now.

"Teacher Kai, I have to trouble you to lead the team again." Tiantian said softly.

Might Guy scratched his head. "That's great that you figured it out on your own. I'm not good at comforting girls at all."

Xiao Li looked pitiful. Ningci also left.
Konoha didn't dare to keep Naruto.

Like Hinata, she felt relieved only after she watched Naruto disappear and leave the village's security area.

The changes in the Hyuga family did not bring any impact to the village.

Only those Byakugan ninjas became more cheerful.

But the situation in Konoha's upper echelons is turbulent.

Kakashi suddenly became strong, and together with the senior ninja class, restricted the power of the "senior advisors", including restricting the activities of "Root". Even Nara Shikaku, with the support of Kakashi, was preparing to uproot the "Root" department.

A few days after Naruto left.

Leaves, roots.

Danzo's face was solemn.

A new Kage who has been in office for less than three years, even if he has some experience in the past few years, will find it difficult to compete with these "senior consultants" who have been in operation for decades, not to mention that the three of them are almost invincible. The Fire Country Daimyo's understanding of Konoha is almost controlled by these three people.

But the problem wasn't Kakashi.

It's Uzumaki Naruto.

The Fifth Hokage suddenly became so tough after coming into contact with Uzumaki Naruto at the Hyuga Mansion.

Was there any promise?

If this happens
Then he couldn't play the card in his hand that was supported by the Daimyo of the Fire Country.

Before his eyes, the space suddenly twisted.

One of them was wearing a mask with his right eye exposed, which was the "Sharingan".

Several Root ninjas hiding in the dark immediately took action and rushed out in an instant, using kunai, short swords, and ninjutsu to restrain the person who suddenly appeared.

Ban Tuanzang stood up and looked down at him from a distance. "You are so brave. How dare you come here at this time?"

He narrowed his eyes.

There is not much light in the room.

"Roots" cannot be seen in the light.

Cover up two people who are afraid of the light.

At this moment, they look somewhat similar.

They all wear wide robes and have one eye.

The only difference is that one person left behind his right eye, and the other left behind his left eye.

“We are all old friends.”

"Is this how you treat me, Danzo-sama?"

Danzo's face was expressionless.

"Well, I'll be frank. The reason I'm here is because I know what you need." The masked Uchiha grinned, "That Uzumaki Naruto guy is a headache, right?"

"Let's work together." The masked Uchiha stepped forward, "Just like we did a dozen years ago."

The Root ninjas' aura condensed beneath their masks.

His figure became illusory and he stepped out from the confinement of the entity.

"Let's fight Uzumaki Naruto together?" Danzo lowered his voice.

The masked Uchiha tilted his head, "If Danzo-sama doesn't want to, do you have a way to deal with him?"

"That's an incredibly powerful person."

"Even the legendary Samsara Eye is no match for me."

Danzo still said nothing.

He was very confident in the trump card in his hand. As long as he could use it, not only could he solve the big trouble of "Uzumaki Naruto", but he could also use it to allow Konoha to move to a higher level and become the leader of the five major ninja villages.

just
He is confident in his "trump card", but he is not very confident whether he can play this card.

Even Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Madara, two masters of the Sharingan, are clearly no match for Uzumaki Naruto.

"What do you want to do?" he asked.

The masked Uchiha whispered: "Uzumaki Naruto that guy"

"He doesn't define himself as a ninja."

"He has power that no other ninja can match, but he is unwilling to be a 'ninja'."

"And it's more than that."

"I found out from another ally, do you know what Uzumaki Naruto is pursuing?"

Danzo frowned. He didn't really want to play this kind of game with "Uchiha Madara" right now, but he still asked honestly: "What is he pursuing?"

"He wants to control the order of life and death." The masked Uchiha lowered his voice, "In a way, to become a true god."

Danzo's pupils widened again: "His plan is so big."

"I think this is something the daimyos cannot accept." The masked Uchiha shook his head, "As long as you become Hokage, Danzo-sama, hold a meeting, convince the daimyos, and gather the power of the entire ninja world, you may be able to defeat Naruto."

"Become Hokage."

Compared to everything else he said, these four words were more harsh and pierced deep into his heart.

"How can I become Hokage?" Danzo poked his head in, his tone still calm. This was the composure cultivated over decades of life, but the desire and greed in his one eye could not be hidden no matter how hard he tried.

The masked Uchiha raised his hand: "I heard"

"Kakashi recently wanted to take action against your senior advisors."

Danzo said meaningfully: "As expected of Madara, he can even get this kind of information."

"I only had my right eye left in the battle with the First Hokage." The masked Uchiha's tone was no longer as strange as before, but lowered, heavy and firm, with an inexplicable meaning, "It just so happens that the Fifth Hokage has a left eye."

“I think he’s a good fit for me.”

Danzo frowned and shook his head: "You want to attack Kakashi?"

"He was Uzumaki Naruto's former mentor, Jonin."

"When he succeeded the Fifth Hokage, Uzumaki Naruto sent a shadow clone to congratulate him. The relationship between them is not as simple as it seems."

The masked Uchiha said softly, "Don't worry, I know my limits."

"I'm just going to take his Sharingan."

"It won't kill him."

The last bit of burden in Danzo's heart disappeared with his answer.

"Our last cooperation was very pleasant and smooth." He grinned and agreed, "I hope our cooperation this time will be as smooth as last time."

(besides!)
