Konoha: I have a gravity training room

Chapter 101 White Eyes Can Evolve

Xia Mu listened quietly. He actually knew all these things, but when he heard Neci say it with his own ears, he couldn't help but sigh for Neci.

There was confusion and despair in Neji's voice, like a bird trapped in a cage, wanting to fly but unable to, and could only cry blood.

In the original work, Hyuga Hiashi gave Hyuga Hizashi's suicide note to Neji.

In the suicide note, Hyuga Hizashi said that he was willing to die in someone else's place. Hyuga Hizashi also got up and begged Neji for forgiveness, and Neji also untied the knot in his heart.

It seems very touching, but if you think about it carefully, it is ridiculous.

The Hidden Cloud Village failed to kidnap the eldest daughter of the Hyuga main family and instead turned the tables and demanded that Hyuga Hiashi pay with his life. It would have been fine if the third generation, Old Master, was weak and could be bullied, but the Hyuga clan always claimed that they were the strongest family, but in the face of this situation, instead of thinking of resisting, they cowardly and subdued. Hyuga Hiashi even kept wanting to commit suicide, which showed his determination.

If you're not afraid of death, why don't you dare to fight the Hokage? Why don't you dare to confront the Hidden Cloud Village?

You've already said you're willing to die in exchange for peace in the village. Can the Hyuga clan really let you, the clan leader, die? That would be so humiliating, and in the end, wouldn't someone who looks exactly like you, Hyuga Hizashi, have to die in your place?

Hinata Hizashi must have thought that instead of being forced to death, it would be better to die voluntarily. At least it could gain Neji's family's preferential treatment.

However, did the Hyuga clan treat Neji favorably? No!

Such a genius as Neji has always been restricted and did not even have the qualifications to learn Kaiten. If it were not for his extraordinary understanding and comprehension, he would now be just an ordinary genius and his strength would not be up to par at all.

The Hyuga main family wanted to obtain protection from the branch family, but was also afraid that the branch family would become too powerful, so many of their unique skills were not taught to the branch family.

It’s ridiculous!

What the hell is the strongest clan in the ninja world? They are clearly the most ridiculous clan!

"Xia Mu, can you imagine the despair of not being able to control your fate? I'm feeling desperate right now. I once believed that fate was predetermined and irresistible. However, after you, a commoner from an ordinary family, defeated me with such strength, and after seeing that you could even fight Orochimaru while I, from a noble family, was powerless, I really wanted to believe in miracles.

I was thinking that it is an amazing thing, almost like a miracle, that you, a commoner, without any family background, have surpassed me, even far surpassed me, through your own efforts.

I want to believe in miracles, I want to break free from the cage and stop being a caged bird. I want to fly freely. Do you think I can do it?"

Neji's eyes were all white, but Natsuki seemed to see hope.

He really began to believe in miracles!

It's not because of Naruto's Kototenzuki, but because he learned to think and no longer stubbornly believed that fate could not be changed, just because he was defeated and surpassed by Natsuki.

Xia Mu took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Ningji, destiny can be changed, and miracles need to be created by yourself. You need a smart brain, strong power, and a clear direction."

Neji's eyes lit up and he clenched the forehead protector in his hand: "What should I do?"

Xia Mu looked around and suddenly shouted to the front: "Teacher Kai, Tiantian, Xiao Li, Ningci and I are going to buy groceries. Come to my house for dinner tonight!"

"Oh? Xia Mu, are you going to treat us? Then go ahead!" Kai and Xiao Li waved their hands.

"Xia Mu, you guys go ahead. I'll bring Teacher Kai and Xiao Li home later." Tiantian also said.

Xia Mu nodded, waved to Neji and left.

Although Ningji was confused, he followed immediately. However, he didn't expect that Xia Mu didn't go to buy vegetables at all, but went straight home.

Xia Mu smiled and said, "Don't worry about the food. We have enough at home. It's just that there are some things that are inconvenient to talk about outside. Now check if there is anyone nearby, and don't let anyone eavesdrop."

Ningji immediately understood that what Xia Mu was going to say was not simple. He immediately opened his Byakugan and looked around. When he found that there was no one else, he quickly nodded to Xia Mu.

Xia Mu poured two glasses of water and reorganized his words. "Ningji, have you ever thought about this? If it's just about protecting the Byakugan, why do we have to separate the main family and the branch family when everyone can just use the caged bird? Why don't we let the main family use the caged bird? Even if the caged bird causes the Byakugan to have a blind spot, it's not a big deal. The truly powerful don't worry about those blind spots, right?"

Neji frowned. He had never really thought about it seriously, and generally no one would think about such things.

"Why?" he demanded.

"I think it might be because the Byakugan can also evolve!" Xia Mu said shockingly...

Neji was so shocked that he stood up with an expression of disbelief, obviously frightened by this sudden statement, but when he thought about it carefully, it seemed that this was really possible.

After all, as Xia Mu said, if it is really just to protect the Byakugan, they can all be put into cages, then there will be no troubles with the main family and the branch family. The main family will not have to hide in the clan and dare not go out, and the branch family will not need to allocate troops to protect the main family. Only when everyone works together to fight external battles can the Hyuga clan make a name for itself, right?

It's nothing like now, where the main family is a coward and the branch family is a slave of the coward. The glory of the Hyuga clan has long become history, and the main family members are only obsessed with the glory of the past and have long been corrupt.

Didn’t the person who created the caged bird foresee such consequences?

No, they definitely expected it. Anyone who is not stupid can think of it. But they still choose to do it and still divide the main family into branch families. What is the reason?

What Xia Mu said now may be the truth.

The white eyes can evolve, or in other words, pure white eyes can evolve!

Neji's lips trembled: "Is it really like this?"

Xia Mu spread his hands. "Although it's just a guess, I think it should be. Think about it, the Byakugan and Sharingan are known as two of the three major dojutsu, but the Sharingan can continue to evolve and become stronger. Before the Uchiha clan was wiped out, there were endless 1.4 strong people. But what about the Hyuga clan? Who are there? And since they are both one of the three major dojutsu, the Byakugan's performance is rather unsatisfactory. On the contrary, the Gentle Fist is quite famous, but you Hyuga are a dojutsu family, not a Gentle Fist family!"

Neji nodded seriously, "You're right. The Byakugan is as famous as the Sharingan, but the Byakugan's performance has always been inferior to the Sharingan. Since the Sharingan can continue to evolve, the Byakugan can naturally do the same, especially pure Byakugan! That's why the main family keeps the pure Byakugan, so that they won't be bound by the Caged Bird Mark. Just so that one day a pair of Byakugan can evolve and truly allow the Hyuga clan to rise!"

Having said that, Neji felt suddenly enlightened.

But the more I understand, the heavier my heart becomes.

Therefore, he is still a bird in a cage, unable to gain freedom. Whether he understands the truth about the division of the Zong family is actually meaningless.

Chapter 102: Ningci's Transformation (20,000 words today)

Xia Mu smiled and said, "Ningji, the Hyuga clan is an ancient clan, but over the years, has there ever been an example of the Byakugan evolving? No, perhaps the legendary Hyuga Tennin had the Byakugan evolved, but it is impossible for the Hyuga clan today to have the Byakugan evolve.

They say the branch families are like caged birds, but don't the main families have any? Yes, they have! They've trapped themselves in a cage called Konoha. They're timid, they're corrupt, they're arrogant, they don't strive for progress. What's the difference between a bunch of cowardly, hopeless losers who don't even dare to leave the village and the branch families who can't fly?

The branch family would at least resist, but the main family only sticks to the old rules and flaunts its power, always intoxicated by the glory of the past and unable to wake up. Can such a main family allow the Byakugan to evolve?"

"cannot!"

Neji answered decisively.

Even though he was confused, he knew that such a clan could not achieve the evolution of the Byakugan!

The Uchiha's Sharingan needs constant stimulation to evolve, but the Uchiha people are constantly fighting and never stop getting stronger. Maybe the Uchiha are arrogant, but their eyes can really evolve.

What about the Hyuga clan? The branch families that dared to resist were caged, while the main family, addicted to corruption, timidly hid in the cage. No one can fly, no one can evolve!

Haha! Ridiculous Hyuga clan!

Neji seemed to feel a sense of pleasure in revenge and even smiled for a moment.

Xia Mu stopped him from laughing. "Don't laugh just yet. I just told you that you need to create miracles yourself, and I wasn't kidding. You need a smart brain so that you can think and find a way to break free from your shackles. Pure Byakugan may be easier to evolve, but no one has ever said that Byakugan can't evolve in a cage, right? Maybe the day your Byakugan evolves, the cage will be opened."

Neji fell into deep thought, considering this possibility.

"You have an advantage because you are truly gifted. The Zong family has fallen into depravity because they don't have a caged bird, while you yearn to fly because you have a caged bird. Who do you think will eventually escape the cage? You need to think about how to evolve, and finding that method is the clear direction you need. In addition, you also need great strength. Only the truly powerful can control their own destiny and break free from the cage. What do you think?"

"You're right!"

Neji's eyes were shining, "I need a smart brain, I need strong power, and I need a clear direction, so that I can evolve my Byakugan, so that I can step out of the birdcage and truly fly freely!"

Seeing this, Xia Mu breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that I actually have another talent.

It's just that his Kotobukiya is different from Naruto's. Naruto made a promise, promising to solve everything after he became Hokage, while he analyzed rationally, gave scientific conclusions, and let Neji understand it himself.

This result is different. In the original work, Neji believed Naruto's words and believed in Naruto as if he were a god. But now, Neji understands Natsuki's analysis, understands the truth, and decides to grow up on his own, break free from his shackles, and control his own destiny. This may be the best way.

Between placing hope on others and working hard to find hope on one's own, Xia Mu prefers the latter.

And Neji obviously needs the latter more.

Xia Mu stood up and said with a smile: "As for what to do, you should think about it carefully. If you need help in the future, you can ask me, or you can come to me to discuss any problems you encounter. Now, I should cook, otherwise my girlfriend will nag me when she comes back."

Having said that, he turned and went to the kitchen.

"Xia Mu, thank you!"

Neji thanked him solemnly, then stood up to help pick vegetables.

He now seemed to have swept away the haze in his heart, and his whole body became much brighter. It was because he saw hope that he came back to life.

Not long after, Tiantian came back with Kai and Xiao Li.

The two Kappas wanted to help, but were rejected by Xia Mu. Xia Mu even created a shadow clone to play cards with them. Seeing this, Tiantian also created a shadow clone to play cards with them, while the two original bodies went to the kitchen to busy themselves.

But I dare not let the shadow clone cook, because the shadow clone will explode. If the shadow clone suddenly disappears when serving the dishes, wouldn’t the freshly baked dishes be wasted?

Just like in Boruto, Naruto was always busy as the Seventh Hokage, even using a Shadow Clone to fool around with his daughter's birthday. The Shadow Clone exploded, and the cake fell all over the floor, making Boruto so angry that he wanted to kill his father. Naruto is also stupid. Couldn't he just send a few Shadow Clone to work? Couldn't he just be at home with his daughter for her birthday?

Let’s get back to the topic.

Xia Mu and Tian Tian's shadow clones invited Rock Lee, Ningci and Kai to play Ninja Kill together, which was quite lively.

However, Kai looked at Neji with some surprise. He always felt that Neci seemed a little different. He didn't seem as aloof as before. He was very happy when playing cards with everyone, and sometimes even laughed.

I don't know why, but it's a good change.

Gai had always known about the Hyuga clan's troubles, and because of this, he was very worried about Neji's situation. Therefore, he didn't dare to intervene in Neji's affairs easily, and didn't care about Neji's aloofness. He only used his own passion to teach Neji. But now, seeing Neji's transformation, he couldn't help but feel relieved and almost cried.

However, Kai secretly glanced at the kitchen. He always felt that Neji's transformation was related to Natsuki.

If it was really Xia Mu's credit, then he was really 477 grateful.

At this time, Xiao Li suddenly said: "I always feel that there is something different about you, Neji. You actually laughed while playing cards. Is there something good happening?"

Kai couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Xiao Li, well done! I was about to ask but didn't dare to ask!"

Neji's smile froze, and he shook his head, "Maybe it's a good thing. I was just enlightened by Xia Mu's words and figured out a lot of things."

It turns out it was really Xia Mu!

Kai glanced at Xia Mu's shadow clone with gratitude in his eyes.

Neji's psychological problems had always left him at a loss, but now he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Well, it's good that you figured it out. That's a good thing. Don't think about it anymore." Kai said something that only Neji and Natsuki understood.

"Well, thank you, Mr. Gai, for your trouble." Neji thanked him sincerely.

Neji has always known that Teacher Gai cares about him. He even never asks too many questions for fear of hurting him. He just teaches him training seriously, and he always keeps it in mind.

Xiao Li was a little confused: "What are you talking about?"

Xia Mu's shadow clone immediately interjected, "Don't ask about other people's private affairs. Let's continue playing cards. By the way, my friends praised my card skills. You guys are in for a treat tonight."

Xiao Li was immediately distracted: "It's delicious, isn't it? I'm looking forward to it!"

Chapter 103 Lending Money to Xiao Li

Xia Mu's craftsmanship did not disappoint everyone.

Although they seemed like just some home-cooked dishes to Natsuki, since there weren't many delicious foods in Konoha, home-cooked dishes were also delicious in everyone's eyes.

Moreover, the meat dishes Xia Mu cooked were so generous in quantity that Xiao Li, who came from an average or even poor family, ate them with tears in his eyes. He almost exaggeratedly named Xia Mu the God of Food.

"Xia Mu, the food you cook is so delicious!" Xiao Li showed off while giving a thumbs up with his free hand.

"Yes, it is with this excellent skill that I have made Tiantian fall in love with me, and he can't leave me anymore." Xia Mu lied with his eyes open.

"Yes, yes, my boyfriend is the best, I love it." Tiantian agreed helplessly.

However, Xia Mu couldn't help but worry when he saw Xiao Li like this.

Xiao Li's family is not well off, which means that his meat intake is insufficient, let alone balanced nutrition. However, Xiao Li trains frantically under such conditions. Not only does his progress become slow, it is also not good for his health.

Kai might also know this because he himself has been through the same thing, but the support he can give to Xiao Li is too little. Even though he is already a Jonin and can take on high-level missions to make money, under his more intensive self-training conditions, he needs to consume more nutrients and naturally spend more money, so he has no time to take care of Xiao Li.

This won't do!

Xia Mu couldn't help but say something: "Xiao Li, your training is very intense, so you must consume enough meat nutrition. I also know that your family is not well off and you don't have money to eat well, but you can't go on like this, you have to find a way!"

Upon hearing this, Tenten and Ningji nodded in agreement.

If you do not consume enough energy after high-intensity training, it will lead to physical deficiency. The consequences are very serious and must not be ignored.

Xiao Li paused, but didn't know how to respond.

He naturally knew this truth, and he also wanted to eat good food to replenish his body, but he really had no money.

Kai burst into tears, blaming himself. "This is all my fault. I made Xiao Li undergo such intense training, but I couldn't even help him with the food. I'm such an unqualified teacher!"

Xiao Li was anxious and said quickly, "No! Teacher Kai has taught me a lot and is the best teacher! It's just this little difficulty, I will definitely overcome it!"

"Xiao Li! What a youthful and passionate answer!"

"Oh!!! Teacher Kai!"
