Ten kilometers away.

The space bubble suddenly appeared, and the three of them got out of the bubble. Both Xiao Li and Tenten were a little bit shocked, not knowing why Neji had to withdraw suddenly.

"Neji..."

"Let's get out of here quickly." Neji's face was serious, and the two of them quickly moved away from this place with him. Seeing his appearance, the two knew that the situation was serious, and followed them silently.

It wasn't until five minutes later that Neji stopped and landed on a tree after pulling far enough away. The two fell next to him, looking at him with interrogative eyes.

"That guy is a very powerful enemy." Neji explained that it was natural to explain.

"Awesome? Are you better than Neji?" Xiao Li didn't dare to believe it. To be honest, after seeing Neji's big mudra, Neji is almost invincible in his heart.

"You have also seen that he can distort the space, which restrains us."

Whether it is powerful or not does not necessarily depend on the destructive power, but also depends on the ability characteristics.

The mask man, Uchiha Obito, still puts pressure on Neji now. Especially Neji is not alone, and Tenten and Xiao Li are by his side.

If Obito and Kamui take one of the two people out of time and space, even if he has great powers, he will not be able to save the person back.

This is the restraint in terms of ability, and it is also the tricky part of the space department. Neji has no effective cracking method yet, so he can only avoid the edge for the time being.

"Then, what about Fengying Gaara?" Tenten looked into the distance, "Aren't we saving him?"

Neji shook his head: "I will not risk my life to save outsiders."

He has a normal relationship with Gaara, if he can save it, he will be saved. If it can't, it won't try to rescue it.

Not to mention, Uchiha Obito is also here, insisting on saving it will only put Xiao Li and Tenten in great danger.

He can be immune to Obito's illusion, which is difficult for Xiaoli and Tenten. Moreover, looking at the tone and content of Obito's speech just now, it is obvious that he is coming to him.

Neji thought, it's not the time yet.

Xiao Li and Tenten were a little moved when they heard Neji's words.

However, this is also the task of Mr. Hokage.

The two of them were a little entangled. Neji looked out and said flatly: "Don't think too much about it, we will go to the other side to find Kakashi and the others right now."

"All right."

The three quickly returned the same way.

During the ritual of extracting the tail beast, Obito appeared abruptly and pronounced the result of the two.

"Kakuzu and Hidan are dead."

"what?!"

At this time, everyone in the Xiao organization was shocked, and even Penn was stunned.

"Are those two guys dead?" Hoshigaki Kisame said in astonishment. "The undead duo... They are the hardest guys to be killed."

Obito added the technique and said, "It was made by Hyuga Neji."

"..."

The name silenced everyone.

Although they had heard about it many times before, it was only now that they realized that this well-known kid was really not a misnomer.

Sasori and Deidara proved it once. This time, the undead duo used their own deaths to prove it.

"Hehe, Itachi, you Konoha are really talented people..." Kisame gave a dry laugh.Itachi was silent, not knowing what he was thinking.

Konan, who was standing next to Penn, glanced at Penn.

She knew very well that Nagato at this time must have been murderous.

Although the two sides had fought side by side, they had already known at that time that they would definitely stand on the opposite side in the future. It's just that this day came so quickly, neither side expected it.

Neji now beheads two Akatsuki members, and Nagato, as the leader, cannot ignore it. That will only lead to the death of more members, and ultimately defeat the success of the plan that has been prepared for many years.

Even for the moment, the plan has already had huge problems.

There were nine tail beasts in total, only one was caught, and four members were damaged. There are eight left, is there enough manpower? Although adding an Orochimaru, it is still not enough.

If this continues, sooner or later, no one will be available. After all, Nagato's physical condition can't support him to catch all the tail beasts alone... He also has to save some strength for the final showdown and break with the masked man.

Especially, the battle with Jiraiya yesterday has consumed a lot of body energy, and the animal path was sealed by the toad, and the body must be re-made. This is also a big waste.

"Where is Hyuga Neji now?" Payne asked.

The masked man said: "I have been driven away. Unfortunately, I wanted to catch him, but he ran very fast."

"..."

Hyuga Neji ran away facing him?

Does this mean that he knows the identity of the masked man, or knows some of his abilities?

Nagato remembered this in his heart.

The ceremony continues.

On the other side, Kakashi and others followed the Sand Shinobi mark left on the road, and soon overtook Kankuro and others. However, when he arrived, he saw a look of depression, and there was no sign of Gaara.

"Kankuro, where's the man!" Temari rushed over and asked, "Are you lost?!"

"No..." Kankuro gritted his teeth fiercely. "We were tricked! We were fake. Orochimaru didn't know how to get the smell of Gaara onto one of his followers. We were completely wrong!"

"What!!" Temari almost vomited blood with anger. Or Kakashi was more calm and asked, "Where is that follower now?"

"I was tied up by us, but I didn't ask anything!"

After Kankuro took everyone to a big rock, Shinzo of Orochimaru was tied up by the five flowers, and two Sand Shinobi were being interrogated.

"Give up, I won't betray Orochimaru-sama!"

Shinzo stubbed his neck, looking like he couldn't follow. Sand Shinobi couldn't help it. The beating was useless. It was not in the village and there were not so many tools available.

"Let me come." Aburame Shino stood up at this moment. He raised his hand and pressed it on Shinzo's head. It was visible to the naked eye. The worms followed his arm and crawled onto Shino's body, from his nostrils, earholes, and mouth. Drill in.

This scene was very uncomfortable, and several people looked away. Aburame Shino said: "These bugs will get into your body from your five orifices, and into your internal organs. Biting your body inside. You will feel itchy, unbearable soreness."

Although Shinzo has undergone a certain degree of anti-interrogation training, he hasn't been with Orochimaru for long after all. Loyalty is loyal, but after being tortured like this, he couldn't help being touched a few minutes later.

"I said, I said! Let these damn bugs come out!"

Aburame Shino looked at Kakashi, and when he nodded slightly, Aburame Shino gave an instruction to let the worms escape from Shinzo.

As Aburame Shino said, Shinzo has been tortured for a few minutes, as if several years have passed. He would rather be killed by a knife than suffer the crime again, so he immediately said.

Hearing Orochimaru asked him to divert the tracking team, Kakashi and others understood that Neji's judgment was correct and that he should take the right path.

"There is no way." Kakashi said, "We will turn back now."

"Wait! Captain Kakashi, look!"

Inuzuka-toa suddenly raised his finger to the distance, and everyone looked at it and immediately saw that the three of Neji had already come.

"Why are you here?!" Temari was the first to rush up and ask, "Isn't Gaara on your side?"

The two teams joined together and exchanged information with each other.

Neji explained his situation. After hearing that the enemy was very strong and had to evacuate, Sand Shinobi was very angry.

They should be angry, but it doesn't matter what Neji is.

For Gaara, fight with Uchiha Obito... Gaara is not worth Neji's risk.

After listening, Kakashi frowned and said, "This enemy you said has the ability to control space?"

Neji glanced at him and nodded lightly.

Sharingan of Kakashi is Uchiha Obito's. And they all opened Mangekyō when Lin died.

It's just that Kakashi is not from the Uchiha tribe and doesn't know how to use Mangekyō. He has always used three gou jade. It was not until later that he realized that there was a higher form above the three-gou jade.

Seeing Kakashi's expression, Neji felt that he had mastered Mangekyō's Kamui pupil technique.

Therefore, they are so sensitive to "space".

"let's go!"

Temari and Kankuro will not be afraid of any powerful enemies, even if they do, they have the responsibility and obligation to rescue Gaara.

Kakashi said, "Let's go together."

"Go if you want, we won't go." Neji said without hesitation.

Kakashi paused: "Are you going to give up the task?"

"Yes. Although you are the captain, I don't want to listen to you on this matter."

"Neji..."

Neither Tenten nor Xiao Li expected Neji to be so tough. Kakashi is no exception. He knew that Neji had been the intelligence captain for a long time, and he really wouldn't put too many people in his eyes.

And his character is like this, tasks, orders, and these things are hard to restrain him.

"It's up to you."

Kakashi knew that he was compelling, and Neji would not obey. What else can I do? Is it a fight?

Shino and Kankuro, who followed Kakashi, were surprised by Neji's performance. In the education they receive, all actions outside the village must be under the command of the captain, and even some choices that will kill them. Once the captain makes a team member, he can only execute it unconditionally.

Because this is discipline, or rules, to ensure the absoluteness of command.

However, there is obviously no effect here in Neji.

Seeing that everyone else was leaving, Xiao Li hesitated for a moment and said to Neji: "Neji, I want to go too."

"……up to you."

Xiao Li nodded to him and followed.

Tenten naturally stood firmly on Neji's side, a little worried: "Xiao Li will be fine, right?"

"Even if there is, it is his personal choice." Neji said, and asked after a while, "Tenten, do you think I'm scared?"

"No. I know Neji you are thinking about us. Others don't understand, but I understand." Tenten smiled and pulled Neji's hand, as if comforting him.

Someone can understand, Neji's mood has also improved a lot.

He stopped delaying and took Tenten on his way home.

The two returned to Konoha after half a day, and Tsunade called him over for questioning as soon as he knew it. After learning that he had given up the task, he was speechless for a long time.

"Master Hokage, if you want to blame me, save it. You know I won't change it."

"Are you embarrassed to say?!" Tsunade widened his eyes in disbelief. "The reason why I made Kakashi the captain was because I was afraid that you would come here suddenly! It turned out to be good for you, you really gave me..."

Before she finished her words, a toad suddenly jumped in from the window."It's not good! Jiraiya he..."

...

Jiraiya is dead.

This news was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue, and it shocked Konoha even more than Gaara was taken away. Much shocked.

Many people were alarmed, and Naruto made a fuss in Hokage's office. Neji didn't know the specific picture, because he has been staying at home since he came back.

Compared with Jiraiya's death, the matter of his giving up the mission has become insignificant.

"Jiraiya..."

Neji sat on the recliner in his small courtyard, feeling somewhat of a pity for Jiraiya.

However, can he prevent this from happening? Maybe it can. If he informed Penn Six Paths in advance, Jiraiya would be prepared, he would not die.

However, what was his motivation for doing this.

Neji's eyes flickered, how could he not know that Jiraiya has been investigating him?

From beginning to end, Jiraiya was on guard for him, and secretly searched for his related information. From Jiraiya's perspective, there is nothing wrong with doing so. But from Neji's perspective, he didn't like this.

He can fully foresee that if Jiraiya is alive, he will definitely oppose the policy he wants to make in the future. At that time, the two sides will inevitably have a conflict.

Now that Jiraiya is dead, the future does not exist.

Neji chose to do nothing in this matter, and the result was Jiraiya's death. However, what reason does he have to change this ending?

"When Jiraiya died, my resistance was much less."

Although it is hard to talk about gloating, Neji will indeed benefit from this incident.

No longer thinking about it, his main focus was on Obito.

Obito appeared this time and told Neji thoroughly that he had already caught sight of him. In fact, Neji could think that even if Obito didn't care about him, he would definitely remind him.

Now, after witnessing him killing Hidan and Kakuzu with his own eyes, Obito will definitely treat him as the number one obstacle, an obstacle he wants to remove.

This is not a good thing for Neji. As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of a thief, you are afraid of a thief. It is especially not a good news to be remembered by a strong man.

This also strengthened Neji's training mind.

He decided to stop going out of the village to do tasks before his pupil power was upgraded to a high-level and his spiritual technique was upgraded to an expert.

Moreover, he hadn't planned to use the power of the tail beast before. Now, he changed his mind.

If you can use a quick energy source like the tail beast, it's better to use it. Especially since he now has a Jinchūriki, the second tail.

"Can you keep Jinchūriki alive after pulling out the tail beast?"

This is what Neji is thinking about now.

Akatsuki died after smoking it because they didn't care about Jinchūriki's life or death. Neji is different. He now needs Chakra the Tail Beast to replenish the energy bar and speed up his upgrade speed, but at the same time he doesn't want to kill Jinchūriki.

This requires careful research.

In the past few years, apart from cultivation, Neji has also read many books. Including those experimental records of Second Generation, classical books, he also gained a lot of knowledge after reading them.

Among them is Jinchūriki.

Jinchūriki, as a tail beast container, will die if the tail beast is taken away because it is not only the tail beast Chakra, but also the Chakra of the Jinchūriki body.

Except for the strong vitality of the Uzumaki clan, they will not die immediately if they are taken away, the other Jinchūriki will all die because of Chakra being drained.

This means that when a person becomes Jinchūriki, one's own Chakra will have a certain degree of fusion with the tail beast Chakra. The more perfect Jinchūriki is, the more Chakra and the tail beast Chakra will not distinguish each other.

"In other words, to ensure that Jinchūriki does not die after the tail beast is removed, it must be ensured that Chakra remains in Jinchūriki after being removed. I don't know whether the externally injected Chakra can sustain Jinchūriki's vitality?"

Neji thought about it, and decided to find Xiang Rin to study it.
