I, Hyuga Neji, "now," supposedly ate an unknown fruit when I was a little over three, and have been unable to activate the Byakugan ever since. When I woke up, I found out that my previous self had died from how awful the fruit tasted. The fruit had altered my body, leaving me unable to activate the Byakugan but awakening my Observation Haki. I discovered something incredible: Lady Hinata's birthday is coming up this year, and I'll be branded with the Caged Bird Seal too. Hah, I don't need this Byakugan anyway... Fine, I can't fight it. I'll just keep my head down until the end.
