DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE “Oh… so Hiashi-sama sent you to convince me, huh?” asked Kuroto.
Hizashi didn’t need to reply, just by looking at his expression, Kuroto was able to judge that his guess was correct.
Naruto’s performance in the recent assessment has brought many changes in Konoha. One of those changes is the understanding of the Three Big Unexplored Sage Regions. The places that remained hidden from the entire shinobi world for over a millennium have now entered the field of vision of Konoha Ninjas.
The thing is, even if people now have some understanding of these Sage regions, going to these places is still very difficult, precisely why, when Hiashi learned that Kuroto had brought Neji the chance to go to Mount Myōboku through Jiraiya, he immediately realized that this is a very good opportunity and should not be missed.
But the problem is, the one who arranged this entire thing is Kuroto, and because there is discord between Kuroto and the main family of the Hyuga Clan, so it was difficult for Hiashi to approach Kuroto with a straight face. Therefore, Hiashi asked his younger brother Hizashi to come to Kuroto.
Seeing that Kuroto guessed the entire thing, Hizashi nodded helplessly, “Yes…”
Kuroto said with a chuckle, “Well, at least Hiashi-sama still understands how valuable this opportunity is.” Then nodded, “Since he wants to send Hinata… then so be it, let the little girl try her luck as well. I will talk to Jiraiya-sama about it…”
Hizashi was slightly surprised that Kuroto agreed so easily, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, “That’s great!”
Kuroto had no problem with sending Hinata to Mount Myōboku. There are several reasons, for one, Kuroto has a very good impression of her based on her cannon self. Hinata may appear to be shy and weak on the outside, but inside, she is as tough as one can get. Pain’s attack on Konoha proved this while everyone watched Naruto from the sidelines and didn’t have the guts to step forward and help him, Hinata didn’t hesitate for a second and faced Tendo. This bravery to face an enemy she can’t defeat alone is commendable.
What’s more, Hinata is Yui’s disciple, so that gives Kuroto another reason to approve of Hinata.

Ninja Academy
Although the Sun had almost set, several trainees were still present in the training field, rigorously training and polishing their skills.
In one of the corners of the training field, Neji and Sasuke were training together. While parrying Sasuke’s attacks, Neji couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Sasuke… I have been wondering… what’s with those scratches on your face…?”
As Neji mentioned this Sasuke subconsciously touched his face, and replied with a dark expression, “Cats scratched my face!”
“Cats?” Neji was taken aback, and asked again, “Did you get all these wounds from cat scratches?” It was a little hard for Neji to believe that cats could do so much damage to Sasuke.
Sasuke nodded, “Yes… cats… the ones I went to sign the summoning contract with.” then hurriedly added, “But they were not normal cats… they had two tails, and some even had four eyes… they called themselves Nekomata, and they were really annoying.”
“I see, that makes sense.” Nodded Neji, then asked, “So, how did it go? Did you get a summon?”
Sasuke shook his head weakly.
Neji was surprised, and asked curiously, “What happened?”
‘Sigh.’ With a sigh, Sasuke muttered, “Forget it.”
Sasuke was not in the mood to talk about it right now.
Seeing that Sasuke wasn’t interested, Neji didn’t pursue the matter and started to pack his things.
Today it was Sasuke’s turn to be confused, “Our fight isn’t finished yet, you are going back home so early?”
Neji nodded, “Yes I have to go.” And explained, “I have to carry out some special training before the day I go to Mount Myōboku, Sensei has brought me this rare opportunity, I don’t want to disappoint him by failing.”
Sasuke was taken aback when he heard Neji’s words, “You are going to Mount Myōboku?”
Neji nodded, “Yes.” He didn’t hide this from Sasuke.
Hearing Neji’s answer, Sasuke couldn’t help but blurt out, “Can I come too?”
Neji was surprised. He didn’t expect Sasuke to make such a request out of the blue, and shook his head with an apologetic expression, “This… I have to apologize, because… it’s not in my hands.”
Sasuke also realized that he shouldn’t have made such a request, and apologized, “No… I am the one who should apologize, I was being too impudent.”
After this matter was sorted out, Neji said goodbye to Sasuke and went to his house.
Seeing Neji going home excitedly, Sasuke felt a little envious.
…
Uchiha Clan – Patriarch’s House
Back at his home, Sasuke mentioned the matter of Neji going to Mount Myōboku to his father and asked tentatively, “Tou-san… I also want to go to Mount Myōboku, is it possible?”
Fugaku was quite surprised upon learning that Hyuga Neji was going to Mount Myōboku. He didn’t expect that Hyuga Kuroto would be able to convince Jiraiya and bring such an opportunity for his disciple Neji.
Even as the Patriarch of the Uchiha Clan, Fugaku can’t say that he too can do such a thing. He still remembers the time when Shimura Danzo and Jiraiya had a major conflict over a very similar matter.contemporary romance
A few years ago Danzo wanted to go to Mount Myōboku and asked Jiraiya to take him, however, Jiraiya denied Danzo’s request immediately without even thinking about it. This angered Danzo and caused a major conflict between the two.
And now… Jiraiya agreed so easily to Kuroto’s request. ‘This is indeed surprising!’
Sasuke’s question broke Fugaku out of his train of thought, “Tou-san… can you talk to Jiraiya-sama as well? I want to go to Mount Myōboku as well!”
Seeing his son’s earnest expression, Fugaku nodded, “I’ll see what I can do.”
