This can not be a light source, armor, tool, or vehicle and, and he can not recreate a magical effect. Creatures must make a DC 14 Investigation check realize that he is transformed. If the creature saw his performing the Jutsu, they automatically succeed. This does not change statistics, save for granting the creature's swimming and flying speeds. Body Flicker (3 Chakra).

At the age of 3, Neji's cousin Hinata Hyuga, the eldest daughter of his uncle and the current clan head Hiashi Hyuga, was almost kidnapped by the head ninja of the Hidden Cloud Village in what was supposed to be a peace treaty. When the perpetrator was killed, the village denied all accusations and demanded the body of Hiashi himself as compensation. In his stead, however, they received the body of his twin brother and Neji's own father, Hizashi, who volunteered himself to save the clan and ensure the lack of a functioning byakugan due to bearing the branch family's curse seal. This event would heavily separate Neji and the main Hyuga clan, as while his father's sacrifice was voluntary, the events happened in such quick succession that he had no way of knowing. Shortly after this event, Neji would adopt a philosophy based around predestination. When he was placed on Might Guy's very own Team 8 alongside Rock Lee and Tenten, he greatly disliked his teammates, both of whom had taken drastically different paths than it would appear they were predestined for. It wouldn't be until Lee revealed his true power in his fight against Gaara, when Naruto Uzumaki defeated Neji himself, and when Hiashi explained the entirety of the Hyuga Affair that he would realize the errors of his ways, embracing those he had pushed away and blossoming into a fine young man. |
