Naruto: The Abstract Strategist of the Akatsuki

Where's Naruto?

After Neji captured Minato Namikaze, he looked around and discovered that the most crucial Naruto was missing.

"Those were probably Naruto's shadow clones. If you want to catch his real body, you'll have to search carefully."

Minato Namikaze, who had given up resisting, offered an explanation.

Since Neji's goal is to capture Naruto anyway, he might as well help out and save himself the trouble.

"Damn Naruto."

Neji finished his Gentle Fist technique and left with Minato Namikaze.

The only thing left on the ground was a Bagua diagram formed by the answers, which was quite cool.

Neji brought Minato Namikaze to the Hyuga clan and handed him over to Hiashi Hyuga: "Keep a close eye on him. Once I capture Naruto, I'll hand them both over to the Hokage for punishment."

"Yes, sir."

Hiashi Hyuga obediently agreed.

This attitude left Hinata and Hanabi completely bewildered.

Is this still their clan chief?

Why are you so subservient to Neji?

What does that mean?

Could it be that Neji from this world is the head of the main family, and his father is the clan leader?

"Dad got arrested? Neji's come to arrest me now?"

In the Hyuga clan's yard, another shadow clone of Naruto was crouching. Upon seeing this scene, it immediately self-destructed, transmitting the information to the original body.

Even Naruto himself was stunned.

The information relayed by several shadow clones forced him to quickly go to the archives and investigate Neji's information.

This time, Naruto can no longer rely on others' power.

Kushina had recently learned that Naruto had secretly viewed classified files and had given instructions to the administrator.

If the soft approach doesn't work, then the hard approach will.

Naruto barged in and, using the sheer number of shadow clones, found Neji's file.

Hinata and Hanabi, who were watching from the sidelines, also opened their eyes wide, wanting to understand why Neji, who was engraved with the Tsukuyomi world, was so arrogant, and why their father was so cowardly.

It turns out that Neji in this world was originally the same as Neji in the real ninja world.

Hyuga Hizashi, the father, became the scapegoat.

Neji believed that his fate was unchangeable and began to give up on himself.

Until one event occurred that changed Neji's perception.

That's right, it was the night of the Uchiha clan massacre.

On the night of the Uchiha massacre, Neji used his Byakugan's X-ray vision to secretly observe and learn the truth.

Neji suddenly understood what to do, as if the clouds had parted and the fog had cleared.

Neji then trained diligently and voluntarily swore allegiance to the Hokage, Kushina.

Hiashi Hyuga watched all this with fear in his heart.

On the night of the Uchiha massacre, Neji wasn't the only one who learned the truth.

Hiashi Hyuga also has Byakugan; he's keeping an eye on things too!

The whole story of Itachi Uchiha, the supposedly filial son, rebelling and annihilating his clan, is all just a facade, a lie.

In reality, it was the domineering Hokage who couldn't stand the naturally kind Uchiha constantly resisting her will, so she found an excuse, Uchiha Itachi, to help him wipe out the Uchiha clan.

Neji has now become the Hokage's lackey, just like Itachi Uchiha did back then.

How could Hiashi Hyuga not be afraid?

Although the Hyuga clan, unlike the Uchiha clan, doesn't constantly talk about justice, they haven't really resisted the Hokage's policies.

However, the Hyuga clan is still the largest existing clan in Konoha.

Sometimes, simply being alive is a sin.

Hiashi Hyuga understood this deeply.

He wanted to do everything possible to prevent the Hokage Kushina from having any reason to exterminate the Hyuga clan.

The most important thing is that Neji, as the one who represents the executor of the Hokage's will, must not be disobeyed.

Even if he had the authority to deliberately control Neji's Caged Bird, he couldn't use it.

Because if he dares to use it even once, it means that Hyuga Hiashi is trying to compete with the Hokage for the highest authority over his subordinates.

What is the intention behind this?

Is the Caged Bird Seal intended to force Neji to disobey the Hokage's orders?

Is he planning to use the Caged Bird Seal to allow Neji to assassinate the Hokage?

These fabricated accusations will be slapped all over you, like hats on a clearance sale.

Therefore, although Neji did not solve the problem of the caged bird on his head, the caged bird could no longer affect him.

As the head of the Hyuga family, Hiashi Hyuga may not have a caged bird on his head, but the caged bird has already been planted in his heart.

The beach of the land of water.

Neji, who had been called over by Konohamaru to watch together, was initially a little impatient and wanted to go train.

Seeing this scene now, I was completely shocked.

"So there's this other way to solve it?"

Neji was shocked.

Is this the legendary "Only the village and the Hokage are qualified to test and command me"?

Is it too late for him to swear allegiance to Tsunade now? Could the Hiashi clan chief possibly beat him to it?

Neji hesitated for a moment, then decided to forget about it.

In the real ninja world, his relationship with the main branch of the clan has improved considerably.

Tsunade is not the dictatorial Kushina who imprinted the Tsukuyomi world.

Most importantly, he couldn't bear to lose face.

"There's something wrong with this Tsukuyomi world."

Kushina, who was sitting on a deck chair in the backyard of a seaside vacation cabin, drinking a beverage and watching the scene unfold, noticed something and couldn't help but frown.

Neji's story of changing his fate by taking the civil service exam seems inspiring, but that's not the key point.

Kushina still wants to see a bullying theme, and whether bullying-related storylines can affect Naruto.

However, some other information has come to light regarding Neji's civil service exam.

It turns out that Minato Namikaze in this world is not the Fourth Hokage, but he did compete for the position.

Minato once left the Flying Thunder God mark on everyone on the battlefield, claiming he wanted to protect the entire village so he could save them at any time.

When peacetime arrived and the competition for the Hokage position began, Minato Namikaze directly reported that everyone had tattoos and therefore could not take the civil service exam.

This includes Orochimaru, a strong contender for the Fourth Hokage position.

Orochimaru never expected that the seemingly innocent and kind Minato would have such wicked intentions, and he was filled with despair.

In order to pass the civil service exam, Orochimaru even researched the Reanimation Jutsu, hoping to obtain a new body without tattoos.

Unfortunately, his resurrection required the use of a cursed seal, which is itself a kind of tattoo, thus directly entering a death loop.

If Orochimaru couldn't solve it, then the others were even less likely to be able to.

Some people even discovered that Minato Namikaze had carved the Flying Thunder God mark on their wives' stomachs.

The Flying Thunder God Mark can only be removed upon reaching the Six Paths level; otherwise, it remains permanently.

Kushina's complaint wasn't about the incident itself.

If it's the Tsukuyomi that arbitrarily created this kind of plot, then Minato deserved to be bullied, didn't he?

You did such an inhuman thing, isn't it right that you deserve to be bullied?

Bullying is about being a victim who has done nothing wrong but is still bullied. That's what bullying is all about.

You've done such a terrible thing, and you're being bullied; that should be called a just punishment.

How can this have a positive effect on changing Naruto?
