Naruto: I Will Never Go Offline - Chapter 717
“Ok?”
Neji blinked, but he didn’t expect Konohamaru to ask about Ino.
Neji and Ino had a close relationship very early, so Ino must have had little friendship with Konoha Maru, and he had only met a few times.
Although they are in the same village, and they are also from the famous family, but this Konoha Village is so big that most of the ninjas who are not at the same time are almost acquainted with each other.
So when Konoha Maru, who thought he would not have anything to do with Ino, asked, Neji was still a little surprised.
“That’s right, the previous generation’s pig deer butterfly, Nara Shikaku, Akido Dingza and Yamanaka Kaiichi were all students of your grandfather Sarutobi Hizen.”
“And this generation’s pig deer butterfly, Shikamaru. Choji and Ino are students of your uncle Sarubi Asma. This seems to be a tradition, when you grow up, maybe it is their child’s child. What about the students?”
Neji said and laughed, of course, it was really just a joke.
Konoha Maru’s face suddenly turned red, and he realized that he was moving towards the future.
Although he is still only a lower ninja, but in the near future he will be upgraded to a chunin, and then go towards the goal of the upper ninja.
This village has always been passed down from generation to generation, and he finally found his way home and a stable position in his life when the turbulent currents of this era were about to stabilize.
But he was startled again, and said, “Hey, I almost forgot. If that’s the case, then Captain Neji, you know Uncle Asma too, right?”
Neji nodded: “Ah, of course.”
“Asma is a very good teacher~” Neji smiled, the gentleness on his face was evident.
Without any disguise, every time he thinks of the scene where he met Ino for the first time, Neji would have to think of the days when he and Asma became master and apprentice.
Although it didn’t last long, it did make Neji memorable and unforgettable.
It’s just that some things have become eternal regrets in Neji’s heart.
As long as he is in Konoha, he will never let Asma become Konoha’s sacrifice pawn.
It’s a pity… Pu Shi’s tricks made him unable to make any impact on the two-year-old Konoha, and he could only be trapped more than 40 years ago, filling the Konoha that was disturbed by his appearance. Village history.
When I came back, it was already different.
“Captain Neji?”
Konoha Maru’s voice sounded, but Neji was rather stunned.
“Uh… what’s wrong?”
“What are you doing in a daze?”
“Ah, no, I’m just thinking about the next mission.”
“Oh… let me ask you, do you really think Uncle Asma is an excellent teacher?”
“Well, of course!”
Neji also hurried to smooth things out, not wanting to dig any further, but Konoha Maru just fell into contemplation and didn’t ask any further questions.
The two continued to advance rapidly in the forest, each silent. No more words.
After a long while, Konoha Maru spoke first.
“What is the content of this mission? Why is it a super S-class secret mission? It should sound serious, why is it only the two of us?”
There was a lot of doubt in Konoha Maru’s big eyes.
Ningci chuckled and explained, “Of course, it’s precisely because the matter is serious, the fewer people who know about it, the better.”
“Our destination is Yanyin Village, and now this path is to go to the land of the land. Fortunately, it is spring, the road will not be too difficult, but the distance is long, we ensure our own safety, but we are not in a hurry.”
Neji was talking about some annoying advice, and Konoha Maru was really tired of hearing it.
So he immediately interrupted: “I know this! So… what is the purpose of our mission?”
“The purpose of the mission?”
It was also the first time that Neji took a student out to perform such an important task, so naturally he seemed a little clumsy.
“The purpose of the mission is to send an envoy to Yanyin Village as a negotiator. It’s just that on the surface it is a friendly establishment of diplomatic relations… But before that, the content of the establishment of diplomatic relations has been sent to Yanyin Village. Most of the content is performed by me, and the content of your mission is to accompany and protect the messenger.”
Neji coped with it easily, after all, this kind of talk should have been prepared from the beginning.
However, Konoha Maru smiled softly and said, “Haha, don’t lie. I still understand these common senses. I’m just the one who was brought over to prove the sincerity of Konoha Village, right?”
“Uh?”
Konoha Maru’s realization made Neji a little stunned.
Konoha Maru said: “What Big Brother Naruto doesn’t know, I don’t necessarily know either!”
“All in all, I’m ready, Captain Neji, don’t worry! I definitely… won’t hold back. The content of this kind of task is easy, and if you need more help, I will definitely bring Hinata Hana. Yes, isn’t it?”
Konoha Maru made Neji stunned.
Unexpectedly, Kazuo was really attentive, and he thought more than the average Jinnin.
Quite the style of a future king.
However, Ningci said, “Hehe, don’t think so, I specially brought you here because of you.”
“Hey! I don’t believe it!” Konoha Maru pouted.
“You only deceived me because you wanted me to stop making trouble in the middle of it, right? Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking…” Konoha Maru groaned.
Neji smiled bitterly and said, “No, not really. You can perform to your heart’s content on this mission, as long as you follow the command.”
“I hope so~”
…
The two walked all the way, traveled at the fastest speed for a day, and finally walked halfway.
In the end, the two stopped by a stream, surrounded by a relatively vast plain, so they basically didn’t have to worry about the attack of the beasts, tigers and leopards.
Looking at the sky that was about to set, Neji let out a sigh of relief.
“It’s much better than I expected. I walked the normal distance in less than a day. The mountain road after that may be a bit rough, but the day after tomorrow, it should be able to reach Yanyin Village smoothly, right?”
Neji breathed a sigh of relief and turned around.
Konoha Maru had already put his hands on his hips and was exhausted.
“Hu, hu, hu…”
He gasped for breath and raised his head, already resentful.
“Really, I really don’t take care of the team members at all! It’s easy for you, but I’m almost exhausted! This speed…”
Konoha Maru almost wanted to lie back, but now he finally understood why Neji had the confidence to treat him with one finger.
This guy really is a hidden person!
Neji was also a little embarrassed.
“Haha, it’s okay, it’s okay for young people to exercise more! It’s getting late…”
Neji said, walked forward, picked up the water from the stream, and washed his face.
“Wash your face first, then we’ll have a good night’s sleep here. On the road tomorrow.”
