Naruto: Becoming Stronger by Pampering Your Sister

It's probably because he heard something from Hinata and Hanabi.

However, this is also good, as it provides an opportunity to extract some money from him.

"Please come in," Neji said.

Then, Hiashi Hyuga pulled a scroll from his robes: "This contains the truth about your father's murder."

Neji glanced at it indifferently and then put it aside.

He was very clear about these things. Although it was due to the orders from those higher-ups, it was also Hyuga Hizashi's own will to protect his respected older brother.

Therefore, Neji won't say anything about this matter, especially since he's not the Neji he used to be.

Hiashi Hyuga had expected Neji to have a strong emotional reaction, but he found Neji to be quite indifferent.

"Neji, you..." Hiashi Hyuga asked with some confusion.

"Lord Hiashi, the dead are gone, and I have learned to look forward," Neji said righteously.

But then he quickly changed the subject: "However, if you feel you've wronged me, then please give me some help."

For some reason, seeing Neji like this, Hiashi Hyuga inexplicably felt like a lamb being led to the slaughter.

But to make up for his guilt towards Neji, he gritted his teeth and asked, "What?"

"Let me see those ninjutsu scrolls from your family."

Hiashi Hyuga: "???"

He was already prepared for a huge financial loss, and had even made plans to marry off his daughter, when Neji made this request.

This caused even the eternally unchanging zombie face of Hyuga Hiashi to change slightly.

Thus, Neji obtained Hiashi Hyuga's permission as he wished, and he could freely read the ninjutsu scrolls collected in the clan.

After seeing Hiashi Hyuga off, Neji smiled slightly: "Taking the Hyuga clan under our control is not a bad choice."

In this world, what's more important than an individual being strong is having a powerful force.

Think of Madara Uchiha and Kaguya Otsutsuki; no matter how powerful one person is, they can't withstand a group of people.

The next morning, while Neji was still asleep in bed, there was a knock at the door.

"Who is it so early in the morning?" Neji mumbled, groggily opening his eyes.

After receiving permission from Hiashi Hyuga last night, he couldn't wait to practice some ninjutsu, and he practiced until late at night before finally falling into a deep sleep.

All told, he had only slept for a little over four hours, but his progress was obvious. For example, he had already mastered the Dragon Fire Technique to some extent.

beep, beep...

The knocking continued. Neji, still half-asleep, got dressed and opened the door.

Hinata was very nervous today. After going to the training ground early in the morning, she received the news that she would be participating in the Chunin Exams.

Although she wanted to refuse, Kurenai Yuhi said with a smile, "The exam requires three people to participate. If Hinata doesn't participate, Shino and Kiba will have to withdraw as well."

Finally, under Kurenai's patient guidance, the naive Hinata was immediately tricked and agreed to go and find Neji without saying anything.

"Hinata, do your best! The future of Team 8 depends on you!" Kurenai Yuhi encouraged.

Seeing Kurenai's expectant gaze, Hinata clenched her fists, revealing a determined yet youthful face:

"I will definitely work hard."

But when she arrived at Neji's doorstep, her previous boastful words vanished instantly, leaving only the girl's endless shyness.

Thinking about it carefully, this was the first time she had ever come to a boy's house alone.

"So shy..."

Even after receiving Kurenai's kind words and being inexplicably burdened with a difficult task, Hinata only dared to gently knock on the door and dared not speak.

"Squeak."

The door opened, revealing Neji's slightly haggard face and the mess on the floor.

"Neji-nii-san, what's wrong with you..."

"Oh, it's Hinata."

Before Hinata could finish speaking, Neji also spoke up. Seeing Hinata's blank expression, he suddenly glanced around.

It all happened last night when I was rummaging through drawers looking for ninjutsu, and I haven't had time to clean it up yet.

Neji subconsciously assumed that Hinata thought his house was too messy, and scratched his head.

If a girl visits a boy's house and finds it so messy, it can severely damage the boy's image in her eyes.

Neji couldn't stand this, so he immediately squatted down and tried to move the things under his feet.

"Hinata, wait a minute, let me pack up."

"No, Neji-nii, I'll help too."

Chapter 20 What a wonderful day it is today?

"Neji-nii, I'll help too."

Hinata didn't want to just stand there doing nothing, so she squeezed into the house to help. But Neji's house was too messy at the moment, and the already cluttered floor was now even more difficult to walk on.

In this situation, Hinata accidentally tripped over a small plank and fell on Neji.

A faint fragrance wafted into Neji's nose, instantly making him feel refreshed and relaxed. The soft body in his arms gave him a sense of comfort, and before he knew it, Neji's drowsiness had lessened a bit.

"Hinata Hyuga tackles the host, and the host receives the reward [Pressure]."

Intimidation: The user exudes immense pressure through the white eyes, directly stunning those around them and causing substantial damage to the surrounding space.

Neji, who was under pressure, was completely bewildered. Happiness came too quickly and caught him off guard.

This ability is similar to Conqueror's Haki in the One Piece world, but it is far more powerful. Under Kaguya Otsutsuki's attack, even Six Paths Naruto and Rinnegan Sasuke were unable to move.

If the opponent's mental strength is insufficient, they may even lose their fighting ability instantly, which shows how powerful this ability is.

"Yes, I'm sorry, Neji-nii-san, I'll get up right away."

Hinata's face flushed red as she looked at Neji, whom she had tackled. She hurriedly tried to get up, but then, another unexpected event occurred.

Hinata accidentally stepped on a ball-shaped object, causing her to slip again, and instinctively closed her eyes.

"oops."

"Boom..."

Hinata suddenly felt as if her lips had touched something. She quietly opened her eyes and stared blankly at Neji, whose lips were touching hers.

"The host kisses Hinata Hyuga and receives the reward [All-Kill Ash Bones]."

All-Killing Ash Bones: This is a ninjutsu that uses one's own bones as weapons. Those pierced by the bones will gradually disintegrate within seconds until they turn to ash, and even Yin-Yang Release techniques cannot heal them.

This is a technique known in the Naruto world that can absolutely kill the opponent upon impact. It cannot be directly defended against; even a complete Susanoo made of chakra can be penetrated and shattered in one blow. Aside from dodging and using space-time ninjutsu to teleport, there are no means of evasion.

The Corpse Bone Pulse is derived from the Shared Kill Ash Bones, but the Shared Kill Ash Bones are far more lethal than the Corpse Bone Pulse.

After a moment of silence, Hinata suddenly screamed, her eyes swirling like mosquito coils, her pretty face burning red.

"Neji-nii-san, I, you, I..."

Steam kept rising from Hinata's head. She had no idea what she had done, and finally, she fainted with a thud.

Neji didn't come to his senses until Hinata fainted. All he wanted to ask was, "What a wonderful day this is?"

"Does this mean I've soared to the sky?" Neji chuckled, carrying the unconscious Hinata to the bed.

With such a huge shock, Hinata wouldn't wake up for a while. Neji looked at Hinata, who was sleeping soundly, and couldn't help but yawn.

He hadn't had enough sleep to begin with, so he simply locked the door, lay down on the bed, and fell fast asleep.

"The host has shared a bed with Hinata Hyuga and has received a reward of [Psychic Orb]."

Mental Orb: A power of the Tenseigan that can control the will and actions of others, and also acquire their thoughts, much like puppetry.

However, this skill is difficult to use against someone with strong mental strength. Nevertheless, in the early stages, this ability is still extremely terrifying.

Although Neji didn't have the Tenseigan, he gained this ability thanks to the system.

However, Neji was already fast asleep and had no idea that he had gained this ability.

Not long after, Hinata woke up groggily and saw Neji sleeping next to her. She instinctively wanted to scream, but she held back. She could tell that Neji was really tired.

Looking at Neji sleeping soundly, Hinata recalled the scene of their kiss and blushed instantly. That was her first kiss.

Although I was slightly happy to have given my first kiss to Neji, I was still very unwilling to lose it.

Should we retaliate?

Looking at Neji lying on the bed, Hinata suddenly had this idea, but she was quickly frightened by her own audacious thought.

"Pah! Hinata, how could you do such a thing?"

Hinata patted her slightly flushed face, completely unable to believe that this was her own thought.

Should I leave? But I haven't finished the task that Ms. Yuhi Kurenai assigned me, but it would be awkward if I didn't leave.

Hinata was anxious and torn between two options, and sweat beaded on her forehead.

At this moment, Neji had also rested enough and woke up.

Then, as if suddenly remembering something, he turned to look at Hinata beside him. The two stared at each other, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back, neither knowing what to say.

In an instant, the atmosphere became awkward.

How can you let the girl speak first in something like this?

Now is the time to show my responsibility. Moreover, seeing Hinata like this, I can completely win her over if I put in a little more effort. As an ambitious young man, I should do this without hesitation.

Having made up his mind, Neji spoke up: "Hinata, is there... something you need?"

It's really hard to bring myself to talk about this kind of thing. I'm over thirty years old, having lived two lives, and I'm trying to talk to a twelve-year-old girl who's just graduated from school about these things.

That's a crime, and the minimum sentence is three years.

Hinata's heart pounded as she saw Neji's serious expression. She wanted Neji to give a proper response to what had just happened, but she was also shy and wanted him to keep quiet.

I'm so conflicted.
