Chapter 377: The quarrel among the Hyuga clan and the interests of the nobles
Late at night, in the Hyuga clan.
As the head family, Hyuga Hiashi made a wise decision before the fourth Hokage took over.
As the end of the Third Ninja World War, in the conflict between Konoha and Kirigakure, he represented the Hyuga clan and stood on the side of Namikaze Minato.
This was a successful stand, but it did not mean that they could sit back and relax after that.
The Hyuga clan is special in Konoha.
During the Warring States period, the Hyuga clan had a blood relationship with the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Fire, which is also the difference of the Hyuga clan.
The Hyuga clan... is a ninja clan and also one of the nobles.
…
Four years ago, the fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato summoned the senior ninja class, Hokage consultants and other Konoha high-level officials to announce the proposal to add a thought class to the Ninja School.
At that time, because of the success of the first stand, he Hyuga Hiashi became one of the three Hokage consultants.
As a noble of the Daimyo Mansion, he hesitated about the proposal of the thought class.
The thought class... this name is so similar to the school organization of the Land of Rain.
And that kind of thought... for the nobles, it is an evil thought and the source of disaster.
After that, although he still served as the Hokage's advisor, he was vaguely excluded from the core circle of the Fourth Hokage.
On the contrary, in the Anbu directly under the Fourth Hokage, Hyuga Hizashi, who served as a team leader, was further recognized by the Hokage.
This is also what Hyuga Hiashi still can't figure out.
The Hyuga clan, the main family has absolute control over the branch family, and the curse seal of the bird in the cage can make the branch family have no thoughts of resistance.
Based on this, why did the Hokage recognize Hizashi while rejecting him?
In the past four years, he knew the information of the Hokage Building very well because of Hizashi.
He even knew the power of domineering, the fact that history textbooks are ideological courses, and the unclearness of the Rain Country Academy.
"Dongdongdong."
"Come in."
"Master."
Hyuga Hizashi bowed his head and saluted.
After Hiashi nodded, he motioned for him to sit down.
Then the two of them were silent for a while.
Although they were brothers, the difference between the main family and the branch family made their fates completely different.
"Master. The envoy of Kumogakure will arrive tomorrow, and the Anbu will also have the task of guarding."
"I know."
"In that case..."
"Don't worry."
Hinata Hiashi raised his hand to let him calm down, exhaled and said: "Since Neji's curse seal ceremony three years ago, you have never called me brother again."
Hizashi lowered his head in a deep voice, and there was no strange color in his eyes.
He just replied in a deep voice: "The branch family is born to protect the main family. This is the fate of the branch family and Neji's fate. Master, there is a difference between the superior and the inferior."
This sentence made Hiashi's chest rise and fall.
There is a difference between the superior and the inferior? Fate?
"You should know very well... the curse seal ceremony is not something I can control, and the difference between the main family and the branch family that has been passed down for thousands of years in the Hyuga clan is also not something I can question!"
"The Byakugan is different from the Sharingan. I don't need to tell you more about the role of the Hyuga clan's bloodline on the battlefield!"
"You have been accepted by the Fourth Hokage. Have those evil thoughts affected your brain now?!"
Hyuga Hiashi still lowered his head: "The history class tells the story of heroes who sacrificed for Konoha, including the first generation and Uchiha Madara. I can't understand the evil thoughts that the head of the family said."
"Bang!"
As soon as the voice fell, Hyuga Hiashi slapped the coffee table and broke it.
Standing up, staring at Hyuga Hiashi.
"Do you know what you are talking about?"
"You also have the blood of the Hyuga clan flowing in your body, and Neji is also from the Hyuga clan!"
"Your fate has long been decided, and those evil thoughts will lead you or the branch family into a desperate situation!"
"You are brothers, but when that time comes, even if I am the head of the family, I can't save you!"
The last sentence made Hyuga Hizashi look up slightly.
The two people's eyes met.
After a while, Hizashi asked: "Brother, what do you think is the reason for the original system of the main family and branch families of the Hyuga clan?"
Initially?
Hyuga Hiashi: "What do you want to say? Or what do you think I will say? More noble?"
Hizashi: "No, I asked this question because I know the wisdom of the head of the family."
Hearing this, Hyuga Hiashi frowned, and then replied seriously: "In order to protect our eyes from being leaked, the value of the Byakugan is reflected in reconnaissance on the battlefield. And it is not difficult to open the Byakugan, unlike the difficulty of opening the Sharingan and the consumption of chakra from foreign races."
"So, the establishment of the main family and the branch family was originally to prevent the loss of the Byakugan to some extent."
Seeing that he stopped, Hyuga Hiashi continued to ask: "Then what is the reason that the Hyuga clan has to use the form of the main family and the branch family to achieve the purpose of not losing the Byakugan?"
Hiashi's hands tightened.
It's war...
No matter the war in the Warring States period or the war after the establishment of the ninja village.
As long as there is a conflict, it is inevitable that the other party will have the opportunity to obtain the Byakugan.
"What do you want to say?"
"I want to say that if this world can be truly peaceful, perhaps many problems will have no meaning to exist."
After the words fell, Hinata Hiashi stared at his brother with wide eyes.
For a moment, the two were silent for a long time.
"Really... you've been poisoned badly!"
Hyuga Hiashi's voice has become cold.
"Real peace?"
"Did those idiots in the Rain Country tell you that?"
"The first Hokage, Hashirama Senju, who ended the Warring States period, ultimately failed to do it. Can the Rain Country, which spreads evil ideas, do that?"
"The Hyuga clan inherited from the Six Paths Sage, and the clan's documents record many secrets of this world. Peace? This world didn't have so-called peace before the Six Paths Sage!"
"What do you want to do? Or what do you want to do?"
"You know very well that once the main family confirms that your thoughts are close to betrayal, including you, all the verified branches will have only one fate!"
Hyuga Hiashi smiled.
"Fate?"
After a nearly mocking voice, he reached out and took off the forehead protector.
The caged bird technique emerged, which is also the so-called fate of the Hyuga clan branch.
Pointing to his forehead, Hiashi said, "Three years ago, you made me realize my destiny with just one look. So now, why are you hesitating?"
"The children of the main family of the Hyuga clan do not need to go to the ninja school to study. Brother, why did you arrange Hinata to go to the ninja school?"
"Whether it is a thought class or a history class, aren't you also paving the way for your descendants?"
"Then... why can't I?"
For a moment, the two people whose eyes collided were unwilling to be outdone and glared at each other.
A few minutes later, the bitterness made Hiashi defeated.
"The Fire Country Daimyo Mansion has also been wary of me."
Hinata Hiashi paused, but did not wait for an answer.
So he continued: "I don't know whether this decision is right or wrong. At that time, I hesitated and made the same mistake that Uchiha Fugaku, the idiot, would make in the past."
"Hinata's talent is not good, and her personality cannot bear the responsibility of the head of the main family. Sending her to the ninja school is also another insurance for the family."
At this point, Hinata Hiashi smiled self-deprecatingly.
"You and I are the same. Our thoughts will change after we have children. The way you looked at Hinata at that time forced me to dispel your thoughts."
"Hinata is my daughter, and Neji is your son... Do you understand what I mean?"
"If I let your ambition grow, I will lose my daughter and my only brother in the end. Even Hanabi will be in danger."
For a moment, the two brothers seemed to have lost their previous fierceness and became depressed.
For so many years, only today did the two have an in-depth heart-to-heart talk.
After a long time, Hyuga Hiashi stood up and bowed slightly: "There is still a mission tomorrow. If the head of the family is fine, I will take my leave."
Hyuga Hiashi clenched his fist and then waved to let him leave.
...
The next day, the whole Konoha was very lively.
It was only a few years after the Third Ninja World War, and the people in the village were eager for the continuation of peace.
The Cloud Village, one of the five major ninja villages, came to form an alliance and sign a peace agreement. This was the most gratifying thing for them.
Because this means...the war is still far away from Konoha.
In the center of the commercial street, the envoys of Kumogakure were surrounded by laughter and joy along the way. The fourth Hokage's direct Anbu was responsible for security along the way.
It was not until they arrived at the Hokage Building that the villagers of Konoha began to disperse gradually.
…
In the Hokage Building, Namikaze Minato and the representatives of Kumogakure started to communicate.
The process was smooth, but Namikaze Minato felt that the owner of the Mangekyō Sharingan in the Uchiha clan was exposed.
Or was it Kurama and the three-tailed Isobu who were exposed?
The communication of the envoys on the first day was smooth, and the same was true on the second day, but before the third day when the signature was required.
Late at night, Hokage Building.
"Shua."
Shisui appeared in an instant, bowed slightly and said: "In the past two days, although the envoys of Kumogakure have not done anything out of the ordinary, three of them seem to be trying to find out about the Hyuga clan."
"The key target is Hinata Hyuga, the eldest daughter of the head of the main family, Hyuga Hiashi. After analysis, the other party's real purpose is likely to be the Byakugan."
Shikaku, who was acting as an assistant at the side, pondered: "In the intelligence records of the past few years, Kumogakure is indeed collecting bloodlines and secret techniques everywhere. The death of the Third Raikage has made Kumogakure seem to have been preparing for war."
"But..."
Minato Namikaze smiled and took over what Shikaku had not finished.
"But the timing is a bit too coincidental."
"After the envoy from the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Fire left, I have been waiting for the Daimyo Mansion to take action."
"Now it seems that the noble lord of our village should also be in trouble."
Minato Namikaze was not aware of the Daimyo Mansion's actions.
But during this special period, Kumogakure set its sights on Hyuga. He was no longer the innocent Minato Namikaze, and naturally thought of many things at this moment.
"The Byakugan has the strongest detection ability, and it is not impossible for the Fourth Raikage to obtain this bloodline."
Hearing this, Shikaku said: "But in this case, since we have already known the other party's goal, our choice has become the key."
"Hokage, do you want to remind Hyuga Hiashi? Or...Hyuga Hizashi?"
This made Minato Namikaze laugh.
Looking at Shikaku, he shook his head slightly and said, "If you didn't add the last sentence, I would really think you were asking. Since you already know the best answer, why bother asking again? Wait for me to make a fool of myself? Then analyze it?"
Hearing this, Shisui looked up at Shikaku.
This guy came to class very late, but his progress is obvious to all.
The result of the full score in the assessment even made the teacher say that he wanted to talk to him.
The two of them were like playing dumb, and he really didn't understand.
"Shisui."
"Yes."
"Just wait for the other party to take action. As long as the hostages are not really taken out of Konoha, there is no need to take action."
"Understood."
Shisui left in an instant.
And Shikaku also said: "It's too stupid to rob the princess of the main family in the land of the clan with the Byakugan."
"If it was the Fourth Raikage who came up with it, it's very likely. If the Daimyo Mansion is involved, then their purpose is likely not just the Byakugan."
Namikaze Minato nodded and replied: "The wisdom of those guys is unquestionable, so if Kumogakure has contact with them, then it is very likely to be a test."
At this point, Namikaze Minato stood up and exhaled, looking at the dusk outside the window.
The Land of Fire and the Land of Rain are adjacent. As the military power of the Land of Fire, Konoha has allowed the Daimyo Mansion to start testing until today, which is already the limit.
But what is coming will eventually come.
The liberation and awakening of thought are necessary for the dawn of this world.
The things described in the thought class, Namikaze Minato originally believed that the other party would definitely find something as early as two years ago.
He was surprised that it could be delayed until today, four years later.
But if he couldn't hide it any longer, he would make Konoha's position clear. This was the confidence given to him by his master, and it was also the confidence given to him by the rapid development of the Rain Country in the past four years.
So since it was a test, he would let the other party know his determination again.
"Shikaku."
"Yes."
"The entire ninja world has been pursuing true peace since before the Warring States Period. The God of Ninja is no exception, and Uchiha Madara is no exception."
"Because we have seen the fragility of life, we want to pursue peace. But we, from beginning to end, have never raised our heads to see if there is anyone on this empty throne who is absorbing the benefits of the world."
"They know about the changes in the Rain Country, and they also know about the high-quality seeds and fertilizers of the Institute."
"But they know, but they are still indifferent. No, they even want to destroy it all."
"They are afraid of us, and they are also afraid of all living beings. So they dare not move forward, and even drag the world to prevent it from moving forward."
"How sad?"
