Naruto: My Chat Group Spans History...

(The previous page had additional words added, as usual)

Then he took out a pistol and handed it to Nara Shikamaru: "Shikamaru, you are a control-type ninja. This thing has pretty good firepower and can make up for your weakness of low attack power."

"Thank you, I will cherish it."

After receiving the weapon, Shikamaru smiled and thanked him.

"It's getting late, we should get going, Yuzuki."

After relighting a cigarette and taking a deep drag, Asuma Yuzuki waved goodbye.

"See you later."

The group waved goodbye to each other.

"Oh... I almost forgot."

However, after taking only a few steps, Ino suddenly cried out in surprise, as if she had just remembered something.

Turning back to her, he said, "Asuma-sensei, give Yuzuki a copy of that too!"

Reminded of this, Asuma suddenly remembered something and quickly patted his head:

"Look at my memory, I almost forgot..."

He pulled a small red card from his pocket and said with a happy expression:

"Hong and I have decided to get engaged! We hope you can attend the wedding ceremony."

Upon receiving the invitation, Youyue smiled and congratulated, "Congratulations!"

"By the way, when is the wedding banquet?"

"We'll get married after we finish this mission."

Asuma spoke with obvious anticipation, slowly exhaling a puff of smoke as he continued.

Upon hearing this, Youyue was taken aback.

It sounds like they're setting some weird flag.

....................................

After parting ways with Old Ma and his group, Yuzuki continued her stroll through Konoha Village.

As he walked, he arrived at the Hyuga clan's residence.

Yuzuki was just passing by when she suddenly heard a call.

"Lord Yuzuki!"

"Hmm?" Yuzuki turned her head in confusion.

"Lady Yuzuki, it's me."

At the entrance of the Hyuga family mansion, a person walked briskly closer with an excited expression.

Looking at the newcomer, Youyue suddenly felt a surge of familiarity and asked uncertainly:

"Hyugashi?"

"It is indeed me. I didn't expect Lady Yuzuki to still remember me."

Hinata Shi put on a smile and approached Yuuki with a look of relief.

Yuyue smiled slightly: "Is your injury feeling better?"

Hinata Shi patted his chest, beaming, and said, "I've recovered long ago, I'm perfectly fine now."

"I admit I was also at fault back then. It was just a few words, I shouldn't have hit them so hard."

Thinking back to my past self, when I first got the cheat, I was full of vigor and would immediately attack anyone who dared to contradict me.

Looking back now, it was indeed a bit naive.

When Yuuki brought up the past, Hinata waved his hand dismissively, saying, "Hey, the past is the past, and I was wrong back then too."

"I hope that Lady Yuzuki will not develop a bad impression of the Hyuga clan because of this."

At this point, Hinata crossed his arms and revealed a slightly shy expression: "Besides, Kiyochi-nii has already given me a stern talking-to, and I won't make a similar mistake again."

"Holy crap, what's with that expression... You didn't awaken some weird attribute, did you?"

Yuyue was so startled that she took two steps back.

"Huh? Really?" Hinata immediately composed himself and said seriously.

Yuzuki nodded seriously: "Yes."

"Ahem... Let's not talk about this anymore."

Hinata quickly changed the subject: "The head of the family instructed that if I see you passing by, I must invite you in for a chat."

"Lady Yuuki, would you please move in and allow us to properly entertain you?"

Yuyue thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Alright, let's go then."

"This way, please!"

Hinata Shi reached out and led the way, bringing Yuuki to a reception room.

After settling Yuuki in, Hyuga Shiki left to find the head of the Hyuga clan, Hyuga Hiashi.

Yuyue pushed open the door to her room, intending to find a place to sit down first.

Looking around, all that could be seen on the ground were tea tables and cushions.

"Tsk, big families really have a lot of rules."

Youyue recalled that such large clans seemed to primarily use kneeling postures, and their homes generally didn't have chairs.

However, Yuyue was too lazy to follow these tedious formalities; they were too tiring.

He simply lay down comfortably on the ground, where a soft blanket covered the floor, which felt quite nice.

As she lay there, Youyue involuntarily moved a few times.

So, as he approached the sun, what came into view was a pupa wriggling on the ground.

"Um... Yuzuki, do you really like the carpets here?"

"?"

"When did you arrive!" Yuzuki suddenly sat up.

"just."

Yuzuki calmed down and casually stroked the carpet:

"It's really great. I tried it out. Where did you buy it?"

"These are custom-made for the Hyuga clan and are not for sale to the public. If you like them, I can give you a set later."

"Then I shall accept your offer with a smile." Yuyue said.

After exchanging pleasantries, Yuuki turned her gaze to the two people beside Hyuga Hiashi—Hyuga Neji and Hyuga Hanabi.

Hinata isn't here; she's probably out on a mission with Team 8.

"Neji, Hanabi, hello there."

"Yuyuki."

"Brother Youyue."

The two responded with smiles.

"Please sit down, don't stand," Yu Yue said, as if he were the master of the house.

Hiashi Hyuga didn't say anything, but led Neji and Hanabi to sit down slowly opposite Yuuki.

"Want some?" Yuzuki asked, picking up the teapot.

"I'll do it."

Hiashi Hyuga hurriedly reached out and took the teapot.

"There's no reason for a guest to pour tea, Yuzuki."

Youyue smiled slightly, without saying a word.

He had not received any special etiquette training, but he was not at all intimidated when facing these people from a prominent family.

Instead, he takes the initiative, making the other party unconsciously submit to him.

This is the meaning of power.

As Yuuki was pouring tea, she noticed that Hanabi was sitting to the left of Hinata Hiashi.

In this world, the left side represents the position of honor.

As the second daughter in the family, according to custom she should have been sent to the branch family to live with Neji.

However, even though Neji is obviously older than Hanabi, his status is still lower than the latter's.

"The Naruto world is ultimately a society where bloodlines reign supreme."

Yuyue sighed silently in her heart.

"The Hokage's son is still the Hokage, and the scapegoat's son is still the scapegoat..."

Fortunately, I possess a cheat-like ability that exempts me from these limitations, giving me a greater opportunity to make significant reforms to everything.

"Once my afforestation plan takes initial shape and a stable spatial corridor is built, local people can participate in the greening project."

"I want this world to be a place where everyone can enter the six realms of existence!"

Having set such an ambitious goal, Shinomiya Yuzuki wore a confident smile.

Every change brings more benefits.

One day, his buttocks will be imprinted on the throne of that day.

"Yuzuki, please use it."

Hiashi Hyuga's voice pulled Yuzuki back to reality.

"I usually can't bear to drink this tea, but I brought it out specially today to welcome our distinguished guest."

"Want to try some?"

You could hear a hint of secretive and proud expectation in Hiashi Hyuga's voice when he mentioned his tea.

"Really? Then I'll gladly accept your offer."

As she spoke, Youyue eagerly picked up the freshly poured hot tea and swallowed it in one gulp.

Upon seeing this, Hyuga Hiashi, who was still basking in confidence in his treasured tea collection, was completely stunned.

You can't experience any flavor at all by tasting it this way!

"It tastes great."

Surprisingly, Yuzuki nodded seriously, expressing her satisfaction.

Hiashi Hyuga: "..."

Sigh... I should have expected this.

How could a young person like Yuzuki possibly understand how to appreciate high-quality tea?

"If you don't like tea, that's okay too, I have soda here."

Yuzuki's eyes lit up immediately: "Why are you only bringing this up now?!"

So Hiashi Hyuga could only smile and get up to fetch it.

Hanabi peeked out to look at Hiashi Hyuga's back.

Once she was sure the other person was out of sight, Hanabi immediately breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed from her previous upright posture.

My legs are so stiff from sitting so long.

She pouted and rubbed her legs.

It is obvious that maintaining a sitting posture for a long time is not easy for her.

Seeing his younger sister's impolite behavior, Neji, who had been sitting upright, immediately became serious and warned her in a low voice:

"Hanabi, that won't do. Remember to sit up straight."

Hanabi playfully stuck out her tongue and retorted, "Oh well~ I'll behave properly when Father comes back~ Let me rest for a bit."

But Neji, as the older brother, insisted: "No, no, we must be polite in front of the guests."

Seeing her brother's firm stance, Hanabi had no choice but to say helplessly, "Alright, alright..."

At this moment, Yuzuki suddenly spoke up, breaking the awkward atmosphere:

"Never mind, it's okay. Sit however you're comfortable. Rules are rules, but people are flexible."

Upon hearing this, Hanabi beamed with joy and jumped up to sit down next to him.

"That's great! So you thought the same thing, Yuuki-nii!" Hanabi was overjoyed, feeling as excited as if she had found an ally.

Finally, I don't have to be so restrained anymore!

Faced with this scene, Neji, despite having many doubts in his heart, could only remain silent, unable to say anything.

He found it particularly hard to understand when he thought about what Yuuki had said before: "Living people don't need to rigidly abide by the rules."

"To achieve this, one would probably first need for immense strength..."

Neji lowered his head and smiled bitterly, "If you don't have enough ability to support it, the rules are ultimately just a framework to bind ordinary people."

"Neji, do you really think that's true?"

With her excellent hearing ability, Yuzuki had already caught the other person's mutterings.

The sudden words startled the boy, because he never expected that his faint mutterings would be heard.

So he quickly waved his hand and explained, "Ah, no... I didn't say anything..."

Neji denied it with lingering fear, worried that these words would have adverse consequences if the clan leader heard them.

Yuyue smiled gently, like a spring breeze, refreshing and delightful.

"Don't be nervous, perhaps I can help you."

Neji kept his head down and didn't speak, nor did Yuuki continue to speak. Suddenly, he pulled out a deck of cards from his pocket.

He laid the playing cards out on the table in a row. "Choose one, Neji. These cards contain the power to transform you."

Yuzuki's smile carried a hint of deeper meaning.

Hanabi and Neji turned their gaze to the table, where a playing card had a cute penguin holding a Q coin printed on the back.

As for what's on the front, you'll only know once you open it.

"Neji-nii-san, shall I take a look at you?"

Seeing that Neji hadn't made a move, Hanabi asked.

"If you don't say anything, I'll take that as a yes."

As she spoke, Hanabi rolled her eyes with a smile and scanned the playing cards, while Yuzuki smiled nonchalantly and did not stop her.

A moment later, Hanabi exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? My Byakugan didn't work!"

She subconsciously turned her head to look at Youyue, wanting to ask him what kind of brand it was.

But the scene that met her eyes stunned her.

"It seems to be better again."

As soon as she finished speaking, Hanabi froze, and after realizing what was happening, she immediately blushed and lowered her head.

She quickly shut her eyes.

She glanced at Neji, then poked at the card with two fingers sheepishly: "Sorry, Neji-nii, I can't figure out this card."

Can't even see through a white eye?

This piqued Neji's curiosity. Was Yuuki not joking?

Is he really going to help me? But why? Although they are friends, their relationship is only that.

"Are you sure you don't want to choose one? You might miss out!"

Meeting Yuuki's meaningful gaze, Neji no longer hesitated and drew a card from the table, revealing it.

"Wow, not bad luck!" Yuzuki exclaimed in surprise.

The cards on the table depict a pair of blue eyes, with white lines adorning the blue pupils, resembling a dazzling starry sky.

"What is this?"

Neji remained silent for a moment, then looked up at Yuuki.

"Ten-Sengan".

"The Byakugan, evolved to its ultimate form, grants one unparalleled power."

As they were talking, the playing cards on the table suddenly transformed into a beam of light and entered Neji's eyes.

"Ugh..."

Neji instinctively closed his eyes, but the expected pain did not occur; instead, he felt a warm and comfortable sensation.

A moment later, he opened his eyes again. His original white eyes had disappeared, replaced by a pair of Tensei eyes with boundless and powerful energy.

An invisible pressure emanated from him, even causing the house to tremble slightly.

"Such immense power..."

Neji stared in surprise at his palm, which was shimmering with golden light.

With just a thought, he can activate the Tenseigan Chakra Mode and unleash a technique called Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion, whose power is enough to destroy everything.

"oops!"

Hanabi was so frightened that she hid behind Yuuki, staring at Neji with wide surprise.

Yuzuki chuckled:

"Congratulations, Neji. You now possess immense power. How do you intend to use it?"

"Change this system you don't like? Or slaughter everyone and establish a new Hyuga clan?"

Yuyue asked with great interest, her eyes full of anticipation.

Hanabi watched all this with curiosity, but as an outsider, she didn't understand the grudges involved.

Right now, I'm just a bystander.

Upon hearing this, Hiashi Hyuga on the roof clenched his fists in tension.

He stayed, listening quietly to their conversation.

"Neji, what will you choose?"

Hiashi Hyuga muttered to himself. Although the matter was complicated and heartbreaking, he, as the head of the family, never showed any sign of it.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Neji finally spoke.

He looked at Yuzuki, his eyes filled with gratitude: "Thank you for your gift, Yuzuki."

His tone then became firm: "But if you're hoping to see the Hyuga clan fighting amongst themselves, you'll be disappointed."

"I won't do that."

"I will try to make changes, but I won't use drastic methods."

Neji said firmly.

Upon hearing these words, Hiashi Hyuga finally loosened his clenched fist, and the weight in his heart was lifted.

He heard a response that was different from what he had expected.

Yuyue suddenly remembered something, and sighed, rubbing her forehead:

"Damn, I completely forgot you're already hanging out with Naruto."

Due to plot changes, Neji frequently came into contact with Naruto even before the Chunin Exams.

Since I've started hanging out with Naruto, I've naturally been influenced by his positive and uplifting spirit.

The "little sun" is no joke.

"I was hoping to have some fun, but that's not going to happen now."

Yuzuki shook her head helplessly.

Immediately, he patted Neji on the shoulder with a look of satisfaction:

"Don't worry, I was just asking casually. Even if you were to actually do something, I wouldn't let you."

"Since you have this awareness, then make good use of this power. Whether you use it to protect or destroy is entirely up to you."

As she spoke, Yuuki's eyes would occasionally dart towards the ceiling.

With a strange smile, Youyue slowly stood up: "Leave the rest to you to handle internally."

"I'll be going now."

"Thank you, Yuuki." Neji thanked him again, his gaze sincere.

Yuzuki smiled and waved her hand.

"Brother Youyue, let me see you off."

Hanabi also stood up, her smile bright.

"I almost forgot, Little Firework."

"Here, this is a gift for you."

Yuyue took out a brand new set of clothes and handed it to her.

"What beautiful winter clothes!" Hanabi's eyes sparkled with excitement.

"Do you like it? Remember to wear it in winter!"

"Will Brother Youyue come back to see it then?"

"Yes, it's so cute~"
