The answer depends on the relative motion of Neptune. The distance from the earth to Neptune when you set off will not be the same as the distance when you arrive. You would need to calculate the position of Neptune at the arrival time.

This is like, if you are playing a ball game you do not go to where it is but to a point which you and the ball will get to at the same time.
