Enjoy a preview of this Naruto episode!Neji fights off all White Zetsu that cross paths with him. One manages to approach from top back and Neji just doesn't see him. At the last moment Hinata steps in to help. Reassuring Neji that he could always count on her to have his back, she reminded him of times when he protected her way back when.
In times of Senbon Sparing when Lady Tsunade had just become the Hokage in Hidden Leaf village, Lady Hinata worked heard to train for the sacred family ritual. When thousand of Spars are achieved, the head of the family takes over as a sparing partner and hands over the secrets of the family jutsu. On this day, lord Hiashi went out on business regarding Lady Hanabi and Neji was there to spar with Hinata. Neji trained her hard for 100 spars that day.Sakura met up with Hinata that evening and suggested that Hinata join her that weekend for fireworks display to honor Tsunade becoming a Fifth Hokage of Konoha. Naturally, Hinata couldn't refuse partnering with Naruto, so that Sakura could be with Sasuke.
[GoogleAd]On Friday, when Neji spared with Hinata, he noticed her chakra being all over the place. This wasn't the level of commitment Neji was expecting from Hinata and he got upset. "Don't waste any more of my time" he said and pushed her some more. Without realizing it, Hinata's eyes were overworked and soon she was forced to give in and she collapsed.
Later, Naruto and Sakura caught up to Neji asking about Hinata's whereabouts. and even though he wasn't too pleased about letting these two know about Hinata's injuries, he did tell them that she was at home recuperating from excessive training.
Neji felt bad for drilling Hinata so hard that she would lose her sight. He visited the hospital every day and when he saw little improvement, he offered his help to the doctor in charge. Doc has mentioned Eyebright plant, that grows in the Valley of Judgement, but it is extremely hard to find.
Sakura was desperate to be alone with Sasuke, so she joined Neji in this search for an Eyebright plant, in order to have Hinata recover in time to take Naruto out of her way.Valley of Judgement was a misty place and in dark even jonin could get lost. Naruto tied a rope around Sakura's waist so they never separate. "It's our red string of destiny" he said as he jumped off of a cliff. The Valley was to be demilitarized, but as Neji soon found out, the dangers were hiding everywhere. With Eight Palm Trigram he fenced off all attacks saving both Sakura and Naruto. Neji kept on searching for more enemies, but (to Naruto's dismay) he quickly severed the red string of destiny and added "Isn't destiny something you reach out with your own hands?" Realizing that he was putting his faith on a piece of string, Naruto felt embarrassed.
Enemies came crawling by hundreds and warding off their knives was becoming increasingly difficult. To everyone's surprise, Guy sensei dropped from the murky sky. Guy's Hurricane Whirlwind cleared the mist that served as the cover for these creepy crawlers and Lightning Blade by Kakashi spooked them all to a retreat. Good thing Guy and Kakashi were nearby on surveillance. In fact, they were there in the Valley of Judgement for the same reasons; to find the Eyebright plant.
Kakashi warned though that Orochimaru may be after this rare plant as well as he is conducting a research in the realm of visual jutsu. The enemies here, Kakashi explains, are people that adopted to living here without sight. They are also very desperate to obtain this plant to regain sight and fighting them would probably be more than these three could handle. Moreover, if anything ever happened to Neji, Naruto, or Sakura, Hinata would have never forgiven herself.
Sakura did see Sasuke that night at the fireworks and umm… Naruto came too. Hinata sat on her porch listening to the fire crackers. Later she found out from Sakura and Naruto, that Neji was the one who risked his life to save Hinata's sight.
Scene rolled over to present. Hinata thanked Neji for trying to save her that day and continued to help Neji fighting off the White Zetsu army.
In the next Naruto episode we go straight back to Great Ninja War and Kabuto resurrecting another dangerous and very talented shinobi. The title of Naruto Shippuden 307 airing this Thursday April 4th is "Fade into the Moonlight".
