Just as Naruto was concerned and paying attention to Hinata from beginning to end. He met Neji since childhood and was completely a childhood sweetheart. When he noticed Hinata's strength, he was not as vulnerable as Neji said. On the contrary, after Hinata's successive attacks and being in a passive defense state, Tiantian's originally relaxed and leisurely mood also became hesitant.

Promise, this is not...

"Ahem...every day, I'll reply...?!"

“…”

At the end of the competition, after receiving Naruto's treatment and walking back slowly, Neji said all the explanations he had prepared in advance, and then he had a blue face and rushed straight to Neji's eyes quickly. Then, under the influence of Neji's inexplicable nervousness and uneasy emotions, he looked back and forth carefully, and looked at Neji's figure carefully. Until Neji, who was sitting on pins and needles, began to appear layer by layer on his forehead, he put his hands on his hips while complaining, but actually he was concerned.

"Even there are so many blood stains on the clothes... It seems that I underestimated the opponent's strength and caused me to suffer a great loss, right? How is my health? Do I feel that the pain is so severe? Should I go to the hospital immediately? Or, I will ask the examiner if there are medical ninjas here?"

“…Puff…Puff…Hahahaha——!”

Facing Tiantian's repeated questioning, his mouth was soft and soft, which made Tiantian, who originally thought that his gloomy face was actually angry and felt guilty, suddenly his eyes were dull and stunned. Then, after a little pause, he squinted his eyes in front of Tiantian, under the warmth that emerged in his heart, and smiled out in front of Tiantian regardless of his image.

After all, since his father Himaki died, Neji, whose eyes were blinded by hatred, has gradually become numb as the years pass, and has lost the ability to understand the feelings of the people around him. So when he saw Tiantian's heartfelt worry and nervous expression, he was stimulated by Naruto's punch and slightly doubted Neji, who was slightly suspicious of his life. Then he realized that since when Tiantian's figure has long been seen everywhere in his life. It was just because he has been completely accustomed to his side and being accompanied every day in these years, and has subconsciously ignored this point.

In other words, during these years, from beginning to end, Neji was not alone... It can even be said that the reason why Neji, whose psychology was distorted by hatred, was able to retain the last touch of Qingming in his heart on weekdays is that he was always by his side, as Neji's last spiritual pillar, constantly accompanying and rejoicing!

"What...what happened? Did I say something wrong? Or...what is there anything dirty on my face...ah?!Ning...Ningji? What are you doing, why are you suddenly..."

"Don't worry, every day, don't worry so much... Naruto's medical ninjutsu is indeed a bit capable. So, after he helped me with treatment, although he still couldn't raise much strength for the time being, it was fine."

Thinking of this, while Neji slowly stopped smiling, he raised his lips and looked at Tiantian's puzzled eyes, slowly stretched out his arms, and naturally hugged Tiantian's waist in his arms. While Tiantian's intimate behavior that was unprecedented, Tiantian became like a replica of Hinata, his face suddenly turned red, and even the eyes in his eyes turned into a rotating mosquito-coiled eye. After Neji's mood became much more relaxed, he lowered his head slightly without stopping, attached to Tiantian's small red earlobe, and whispered word by word.

"Also... thank you for caring about me so much, every day."

If invisible language can be changed into substance, then the words that Neji subconsciously expressed during the revelation of true feelings have been a strange feeling for Neji that goes beyond the category of "friendship" since he was a child. As he grows older and awakens the girl's heart, this feeling begins to grow stronger. It is undoubtedly a Cupid arrow that can easily penetrate his heart's defense!

"Ah? Thank you... Thank you... Suddenly... Why did you become so polite...!? No... don't you feel very stingy, weird?!"

In this way, while Tiantian's face was constantly heating up, waves of white steam rose. Although he was still trying hard to make the expression on his face look more natural. However, the body that faithfully followed the true thoughts in his heart was only slightly stiffened for a while, and then completely softened. He even hesitated to stretch out his hand, tentatively surrounding Neji's waist, and buried his face deep into Neji's chest. Then his body trembled slightly, and he sneered in a low voice...

Obviously, every day, not only did he not feel disgusted or frightened by Neji's "sudden attack", but he was also very happy and satisfied with it!

"...It's really hard for you to stay by my idiot who is ignorant of the charm, every day..."

At the same time, since Neji's move to embrace Tiantian from the beginning was just an impulse act of his mind. After Neji slowly calmed down, he was undoubtedly worried about whether his misogynistic behavior would annoy Tiantian, and planned to slowly retract his arms. On the one hand, his personal feelings were the thought of letting go of the petite body of the girl in his arms, and there was a sense of reluctance and resistance. Even unexpectedly, he realized that Tiantian was about

Not only did my actions not resist or struggle, but I was quite indulgent and unexpectedly responded. In terms of emotional intelligence, unlike the prince in the original work, Niji, who was so slow that he could be called a elm-head, immediately realized the girlish thoughts that the person in his arms had been trying to hide over the years. Then, while his arrogant eyes, which were originally kept thousands of miles away, slowly softened, he naturally muttered in his mouth, and would no longer let go of his hands and act in such a bad way.

"Hmm-! The sweet and sweet taste of love! This is also a part of youth! Come on! Neji! Every day!"

On the other hand, as the leader of Ningji's team, Kai, who was responsible for monitoring Ningji's every move during the next exam, preventing Ningji from appearing in a similar state of emotional out-of-control, naturally noticed the ambiguous feelings that emerged between Tiantian and Ningji while staring silently. Then, with an old father-like look, he nodded frequently with tears in his eyes. Kai, who was relieved, turned his head to look at the figure of Xiao Li who was stretching his muscles and bones to prepare for the next game. Then he showed off his iconic big white teeth and cheered for Xiao Li with full blood.

"Very good, we can't lose to them, Li! Burn your youth and play a wonderful game with all your might!"

Well, obviously, Kai, who has been single for most of his life—or, in the original plot, just like his close friend Kakashi, who has been fighting for a lifetime—has not realized...

In that case, the words that almost equaled themselves, Xiao Li, the master and apprentice, Ning Ji and Tian Tian, ​​contained so many ambiguities that were enough to make people imagine...

"Oh—! No problem! Teacher Kai! It's wrapped around me! Don't worry!"

Fortunately, Xiao Li, who is still young and immature, obviously became another passionate existence under Kai's personality, like a copy of Kai's version. So much so that after hearing Kai's encouraging words, Xiao Li not only did not notice the strange ambiguity in these words, but also held an equally passionate tone and promised Kai excitedly.

"As the finale, I will definitely bring you the most exciting battle! If I can't do it, I will walk around the entire village for a thousand rounds in the upside down after the exam!"

After setting a very strict "small goal" for himself who was about to compete, Xiao Li, who had been watching the fierce showdowns, couldn't wait to climb over the fence and land straight towards the competition venue.

"Sure enough, like what I remember, Gaara's opponent is still Xiao Li..."

At the same time, because of Kai's passionate but ambiguity, Naruto, who turned his head a little, happened to see the excited back of Xiao Li when he crossed the fence. Then he muttered to himself thoughtfully, and turned his head back to look at the little panda not far away from him, who was gathering with the small ball fan and whispering something. While the panda was aware of it, he turned around and patted the panda's shoulders and solemnly reminded him.

"Stop making trouble now, Gaara, it's your turn... Remember, take action later, don't hurt your opponent too much... And don't underestimate his strength, do you understand?"

"Well... don't understand."

However, facing the reminder words that Naruto gave, the little panda thought about it and thought about it, as if he was deliberately singing a opposite tune with Naruto, blinking his eyes innocently while tilting his head a little, and responding with confidence.

"I'm going to do it again, and I'm going to stop underestimating him... Then is his strength considered strong or weak?"

"...hiss... Gaara, are you very happy now? It seems that you were so badly led by that guy Sasuke in just a few days?"

Unexpectedly, Naruto, who had such obvious contradictory views in the reminder words he subconsciously gave, was immediately choked with words in the innocent response of the little panda. Then, while moving a little bit of his eyes, he looked gloating from the small fan not far away, and more or less guessed the reason why the little panda would suddenly be so naughty. He rolled his eyes angrily and responded in a slight sense of improper meaning.

"If you ask me, how can I make it accurate? Of course, you need to experience it yourself before you can tell whether he is a strong enemy to you!"

"Well... Isn't this the same as not saying it..."

"Hmm? Do you have any other opinions?"

"...No, no, no, no...! Ah! The examiner is urging me, I'll go down first, brother... Naruto, see you later!"

Fortunately, the timely urging of the moonlight wind, combined with Naruto's annoyance and anger, made Gaara, who had originally planned to be scorn for a few more times, immediately shivered all over her body, and obeyed the strong desire for survival drive of her instinct, and used the instant body technique to move herself to the venue. In this case, Naruto, who was quite troubled, saved the effort of racking his brains to think about how to make up for himself.

Well, of course...

If the small round fan had not seen it correctly, Naruto would not have been willing to leave Hinata's wife-protecting instinct too far away, so it was impossible for him to have the leisure to settle the score with him at this critical moment. How could the small round fan suddenly seem to be fearless and instigate the little panda to instigate the little panda to do something bad in front of Naruto?

"...hiss... Gaara, are you very happy now? It seems that you were so badly led by that guy Sasuke in just a few days?"

Unexpectedly, Naruto, who had such obvious contradictory views in the reminder words he subconsciously gave, was immediately choked with words in the innocent response of the little panda.
