Naruto: I Neji Will Never Give Up

Chapter 598 – List! New Akatsuki

“you are……”

It wasn’t until the man took himself to a room that Neji thoroughly confirmed his conjecture.

This person is really him!

The man took Neji into the hut and took off the coat and hat he had been wearing.

The smile on his face was kind, and his hair was white like a thorn from behind his shoulders.

Although it looks more than half a hundred years old, there is already some masculine aura in his eyes.

“… Teacher Jiraiya?”

Neji murmured, this Jiraiya teacher blurted out.

In the original world, Neji never admitted that Jiraiya is his teacher, but Jiraiya is indeed someone who has taught himself or guided himself for a short period of time!

And this is a minority. Most of the time, Neji is alone and relying on the system to become stronger alone.

Might Guy, Kakashi, Asuma, Jiraiya… Neji can’t find more people.

These people are more or less instructive to themselves, and Jiraiya is the highest and most respected person among them. Naturally, Neji also places all his mentorship on Jiraiya.

Unfortunately, I thought I could change the ending of Jiraiya by traveling through Naruto World, but unexpectedly Pu Shi let myself travel more than 40 years ago, missing the most important turning point of Naruto World for more than two years. Asuma and Jiraiya all died.

Even Kakashi died at Penn’s hand, but Nagato, who was finally awakened completely, was resurrected.

And Might Guy almost died due to the side effects of Eight Gate, or Neji forcibly left his life, which also made Neji have a deep doubt, could he not have any mentor to survive in the world?

Especially the death of Jiraiya. As a hero, he was so great, not only in strength, but his loyalty to Konoha Village to his homeland is enough for Neji to learn for a lifetime. Seeing each other now, even in the world of dreams, he was moved by heart.

And Jiraiya, who heard Neji call herself Jiraiya teacher, was also taken aback.

At this moment, he stared at the top of Neji’s head—”Konoha Village forehead protector.”

“These eyes, Byakugan… Are you… Hizashi’s son?”

Jiraiya blinked, obviously familiar with Neji, and his mind seemed extremely complicated.

And where does Neji take care of so much? Seeing Jiraiya has already made him think a lot. At the moment, it is better to suppress the nostalgia for his teacher and deal with the situation wisely.

So Neji explained: “Mr. Jiraiya, as one of the three ninjas, I have been looking up to you for a long time. I want to make you a master for a long time! It is not necessary to apprehend a teacher, just to show respect for you!”

“By the way… why are you in Kirigakure?”

Neji wants to quickly skip this, lest Jiraiya asks why he calls him teacher…

“Is it because you are performing a secret mission? Oh~ I said why I can’t find you in Konoha Village. It seems that you are performing a major hidden mission, right?”

Neji raised his eyebrows and looked lively, and he was quite confident in his performance.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

Neji’s enthusiasm was beyond Jiraiya’s expectation. After he was unable to respond for a while, he also showed a wry smile.

“Really? You really are Hizashi’s son! Hyuga Neji, right? You are very similar to Hizashi when you were young. You seem to be so reliable, but to our predecessors, you always look good and sensible. Embarrassing!”

Jiraiya smiled honestly and let out a sigh of relief.

Neji nodded, the atmosphere of the two was just right at this time.

But it seems…have their own ghosts…

“Why are you in Kirigakure?”

The two asked in unison, almost at the same time.

“Hahaha! It seems that you don’t know much about me! Neji?”

Jiraiya laughed loudly.

Neji also shrugged, and just follow the customs when entering the country, and simply explained: “Yes, you also know that I am just a ninja with no talent. I might have been caught by those villagers without you just now! I am really to you. I don’t know anything. I really want to know why the legendary you appeared in Kirigakure. Could it be because of something significant happened to Kirigakure?”

Jiraiya is still looking at Neji, and after a while, he chooses to believe in Neji for the time being.

“Haha, since this is the case, seeing you being so persistent, I’ll talk about my reasons first.”

“Yes, as you said…”

Jiraiya began to explain it to Neji seriously.

“I was secretly commissioned by the village to perform important secret S-class missions outside. So you may hear some false rumors in Konoha Village, no matter what those rumors are…”

Jiraiya squinted his eyes thoughtfully, keeping an eye on the changes in Neji’s expression.

After confirming that it was correct, he continued to explain: “Of course, you can’t tell you the details of this mission at will. In short, I don’t know much about Kirigakure now. It’s just that I’m tracking an organization recently. I can only say so. too much.”

“Some organization…”

Neji narrowed his eyes and murmured.

It seems that Jiraiya is not hiding anything, even if this world is different from the original world line, or it is simply a dream world, a false world…

Although everything in front of me is so real.

But the world seems to have a certain development law, even without Obito, Akatsuki was still born.

Since Jiraiya even revealed this to herself, she can be regarded as a credible person.

Neji told Jiraiya all the process of going out to perform the task.

Of course, I didn’t tell my secret, but from the perspective of Neji in this world, I talked about the many tasks I experienced.

“Oh……”

After listening to Jiraiya, it suddenly became clear.

“In other words, now you want to investigate Kirigakure’s secret? Want to help your father solve problems and get the standard answer directly?”

No longer smiling, he joked: “Your kid is really thoughtful. If this allows you to crack Kirigakure’s secret, your father shouldn’t look at you with admiration? Really have an idea, kid!”

“Where…”

In the face of Jiraiya’s praise, Neji still feels a little bit proud.

“It’s just that you are really surprising. You won the approval of Shisui of Anbu so quickly, even I find it tricky…”

Jiraiya was concentrating, seeming a little displeased.

Neji was startled: “Huh?”

“It’s okay.”

Jiraiya thought for a while, and chuckled softly: “By the way, since you are going to investigate Kirigakure, then I also give you some information?”

After all, Jiraiya turned around and looked through the baggage in his corner to find a list.

Give the paper list to Neji and explain: “This is the list of members I have collected now named Akatsuki. There are not more than four people, and one of them will not be cut again!”

“That’s why I came to investigate Kirigakure.” Jiraiya explained.
