Being aware of an illusion and breaking through it are two completely different concepts.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!"

The sharp blade stabbed into his body continuously, and the extremely real pain made Sasuke scream heart-wrenchingly.

The second update will be a little later. I'm too busy today.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 89 The bird in the cage cannot be gone, new curse, wings of freedom!

The three days and three nights of illusion are but one second in reality.

Sasuke, who had escaped from the illusion, knelt weakly on the ground. His pupils lost focus and it would take him a while to regain consciousness.

Looking at Erzhuzi's miserable appearance, Feng Qi shook his head and sighed softly.

"Is this why you sent this guy here? Kakashi..."

In the end, he still held back and did not completely destroy Erzhuzi's mental will through illusion.

The reason for doing this, in addition to the changes in his state of mind after absorbing the power of the Byakugan, it was also to repay Kakashi for not pursuing him relentlessly the night he defected from Konoha.

——Feng Qi knew very well that human relationships were very troublesome, so in the high-quality imitation of Tsukuyomi, he also added some special gadgets for Uchiha Sasuke.

That is power, but also taboo.

The matter was over, and Fengqi no longer paid attention to Sasuke, who was drooling uncontrollably, and left the Hyuga clan's territory with slow steps.

Just a few minutes after he left, a figure in white arrived here.

"Damn it! Are we a step too late?!"

Ningji, who was covered in wounds, punched heavily on the stone wall of the forbidden area that had been opened, with deep resentment and regret flowing in the depths of his eyes.

If I could have dealt with my opponent faster, I wouldn't have missed out on this opportunity!

He hated his own weakness.

"No, that's not right, maybe Brother Fengqi hasn't left Konoha yet!"

As if he suddenly thought of something, Neji became very excited and ignored the members of the branch family who had gathered around him. He turned into a shadow and disappeared on the spot.

-

The residential area of ​​the Hyuga branch family, a mansion, a familiar courtyard.

"Not bad, Neji. He takes good care of the flowers, plants and trees. They are growing vigorously."

Feng Qi held a grass root in his mouth, his eyes slightly narrowed, and he lay on the recliner in his yard with his legs crossed, quietly enjoying this rare and relaxing time.

The air was filled with the familiar scent of flowers, the air was fresh, and even the clear and familiar sound of birds chirping could be heard in my ears.

——New migratory birds have come to build nests on the tree in the yard.

"According to the time, it should be almost time."

Feng Qi spat out the grass roots in his mouth, stood up and stretched.

That's right, the reason why he was still staying in Konoha was to meet Neji.

The place where the Zong family's land is located is really a bit disgusting.

boom!

Just when Feng Qi sat up, the gate of the courtyard was pushed open with force.

Ningji leaned against the door frame and gasped for breath. Although he was extremely tired, he still insisted on raising his head and looking towards the courtyard.

His eyes suddenly shrank, and the Feng Qi brother he had been thinking about was indeed sitting there!

"Yo, I've been waiting for you for a long time, Neji."

Feng Qi smiled and raised his hand to say hello.

"Brother Fengqi..."

Looking at that extremely familiar bright smiling face, all kinds of scenes from the past came to my mind.

Even Neji couldn't suppress his excitement. His eyes became moist and he ran over with staggering steps.

Although he had not seen Feng Qi, who was labeled as a "traitorous ninja", since the dramatic changes in the main family, he had heard a lot about the latter's deeds during this period.

Setting up a stall to exorcise ghosts in the Bird Country, fighting with the legendary three ninjas Tsunade, hiding in the Ghost Country, etc...

He even asked Teacher Kai to take on the mission to go to the Land of Demons.

Unfortunately, they came to nothing. Not only did they not meet Fengqi, they were also harassed by the shrine maiden from the Demon Country who had a barbaric personality and was full of inexplicable hostility towards the Konoha ninjas!

(At that time, Fengqi was integrating the power of ghosts)

"It's been a few months since we last met, but you've grown a lot, Neji. You can even use the Eight Diagrams Hand quite well now."

Compared to Neji's excitement, Fuuki was much more indifferent.

His words startled Ningci: "Brother Fengqi, were you also present during the Chunin Exam?"

Except for the battle with Hinata during the Chunin Exam, he has not used Tai Chi Hands in front of outsiders in recent times!

"Haha, I suddenly got in the mood, so I went up and had some fun with Uchiha Sasuke."

"So that mysterious red copper armor was disguised by you, Brother Fengqi?!"

……

The two brothers, who had met again after a long separation, talked and laughed in the courtyard and reminisced about the past, just like their daily routine.

"Brother Fengqi, I've been concerned about the curse mark on your forehead..."

After chatting, looking at Fengqi's smooth and flawless forehead, Ningji still asked the doubts in his heart.

Feng Qi nodded slightly: "Yes, I have already freed the bird from the cage."

"There's actually a way to unlock this damn thing!" Neji seemed a little unbelievable.

After the main family underwent a dramatic change and the branch family's status rose, he, like Feng Qi, kept trying to remove the caged bird from his forehead.

As a result, he learned from some experienced elders that there is no magic formula to remove the bird in the cage!

This extremely cruel truth almost made him collapse on the spot.

"About the curse."

Feng Qi looked up at Neji who looked shocked, "Tell me, Neji, what are you going to do after you successfully become the clan leader?"

From the casual conversation just now, he knew about Neji's dream of becoming the head of the Hyuga clan.

Hearing this, Neji lowered his head, clenched his fists and fell into deep thought.

If it were a few months ago, he would have answered without hesitation that the caged bird should be completely destroyed.

But now, after experiencing the dramatic changes in the main family and the Hyuga family, his thoughts have changed significantly.

Especially Orochimaru's attack on Konoha made Neji see with his own eyes how cruel a war driven by interests is!

Although he was very unwilling, he had to admit that keeping the bird in a cage was indeed a necessary means to protect the Hyuga clan from being harmed.

The value of a look of contempt is so great that it involves countless interest chains.

Without the restrictions of the caged birds, it is hard to imagine what kind of crazy hunting and attacks the tribesmen would face in the future!

"A bird in a cage cannot be without one." Neji said with difficulty.

Immediately afterwards, as if to make his position clear, he hurriedly said, "But I will label everyone, there will no longer be a distinction between the main family and the branch family!"

Feng Qi looked serious and asked a soul-searching question: "Then, who should hold the key to activate the curse?"

"let me……"

Neji was about to say "Let me hold it alone" subconsciously, but he was suddenly stunned and unable to speak for a long time.

Although he has the confidence and awareness to be fair and just, he knows better what it feels like to be like a caged bird, living under the shadow of fate all the time.

Even if he was ruthless enough to take on all the responsibilities, there was no guarantee that a new "Hyuga Main Family" would not emerge in the future as time went by.

No matter who holds the Caged Bird Curse Seal, this historical issue cannot be avoided!

"It seems like you have really grown up, Neji."

Feng Qi saw through what Neji was thinking at a glance.

Seeing that Neji was still looking frustrated, Fengqi raised his hand and patted his shoulder. The seriousness and earnestness on his face instantly disappeared, replaced by a hearty and relaxed smile.

"Hahaha! Don't worry, I've already paved the way for you."

Under Neji's surprised and puzzled gaze, Fengqi took out a scroll from his arms.

"This is an optimized version of the Caged Bird Curse. It retains the original triggering conditions, but is no longer controlled by a certain caster. Instead, it can be activated by one's own will."

When Feng Qi was reverse-deducing the technique to remove the caged bird, he already knew the curse thoroughly.

For him who possessed the Fenghou Qimen, making slight changes was just a piece of cake.

After listening to Fengqi's explanation of the new curse seal, Neji was completely stunned, his whole body trembling and breathing rapidly, his eyes fixed on the scroll that could change the fate of the Hyuga clan.

No one knows the importance of this scroll better than him, a genius yet tortured man!

"Take it."

Fengqi stuffed the scroll into Neji's hands, put his hands behind his back, and turned to look at the vast and boundless sky in the distance.

"A soaring eagle should not be confined by a small iron cage, nor should it be a poultry to be slaughtered and taken at will. Whether it is a branch family or a main family, what the Hyuga clan yearns for and pursues should be the vast and free sky."

"The name 'Bird in a Cage' is really too ugly, so I named this new curse..."

"Wings of Freedom!"
