Konoha: I turn on the limiter in the ninja world

The family meeting lasted until the second half of the night, and then Hyuga Hiashi sorted out some recent events into scrolls and stored them in the secret compartment behind the bookshelf.

Although Ryosuke understood that these files were like diaries, if they were discovered by some people with ulterior motives, it would cause more serious consequences.

But after all... few people can record everything clearly in their minds like him.

He can do it, but others may not be able to do it, so it is necessary to record important things in some special ways to prevent forgetting.

So, Ryosuke did not stop it.

As usual, Hyuga Hiashi left first and went back to the room to rest.

In the study, only Ryosuke and Hinata, who had not spoken since the meeting started, were left.

"This time... I have no problem."

As soon as he turned his head, Ryosuke was about to ask her if she had any questions about the content of this meeting, when he heard Hinata's voice.

Her serious look made Ryosuke stunned, but he soon nodded with relief.

Every time they carefully recorded the content of the meeting, Hinata also began to slowly keep up with their pace and thinking, began to understand what they said during the meeting, and understood the direction behind each decision.

Compared with Naruto, who had a miserable life and had lived alone since childhood, Hinata was still relatively naive.

So even though both of them were influenced by Ryosuke, they grew up at different speeds.

However, since she took on the concept of family, Hinata's thinking has begun to improve significantly, and she is no longer just pursuing strength and competing for some false reputation as before.

"Then..."

Ryosuke stood up. Since she had understood, the long-awaited family meeting tonight was officially over.

"Wait..."

But Hinata stopped him.

Turning his head in confusion, Ryosuke stopped getting up and sat back down again.

"In addition to what father said, there was actually something else that happened in the village recently." Hinata explained, "But maybe because it's not that important, father didn't tell you."

"I know you've always been paying attention to Uchiha Sasuke."

Under the dim light of the desk lamp, she looked serious, and she really had a bit of the attitude of Hyuga Hiashi, "A newly graduated Genin, although he is an orphan of the Uchiha clan, is not that worthy of attention for father."

"But I know you seem to have some attention to him, so you have been paying attention to him."

"He hasn't come to school recently, it seems that he has successfully graduated."

"Graduated?"

Ryosuke was a little surprised, "Did his Sharingan awaken?"

In a short period of time, Uchiha wanted to have the strength to defeat the Chunin, and he felt that there was no other possibility except the Sharingan.

After all, it is not easy to make a breakthrough in a relatively comfortable environment.

Like Ryosuke, he has mastered many secrets in the original timeline, and with the family's heritage, he can have many directions to learn from and improve himself in boring practice.

But Uchiha Sasuke is different. He is just a rookie who has never even left the village.

Even if he has good talent and family background, his vision and lack of guidance have limited most of his growth possibilities.

"Maybe."

But Hinata's answer was a little vague. It was obvious that she did not have accurate information. "After you did not go to school, Sasuke also asked for leave as often as you did."

"But since Teacher Mizuki came to our class as a tutor for practical courses, he has been very close to Teacher Mizuki, or... Teacher Mizuki and Uchiha Sasuke are very close."

"And recently, Teacher Mizuki seems to have disappeared, but someone in the school saw Uchiha Sasuke wearing a Genin forehead protector."

"Oh?"

Ryosuke's eyes showed some interest, "Although he graduated, there was no school-wide announcement? I will have someone check this matter."

Generally speaking, early graduation will have corresponding notices posted on the school's bulletin board, including applications for early graduation and the results of the application.

Just like Naruto before, when he applied for graduation, he caused quite a stir and attention because of the announcement.

Even Uchiha Sasuke, who failed to pass the graduation test some time ago, also had a public announcement.

But this time, it was obviously an accident that did not get the school's public announcement, just like in the original timeline, Naruto defeated Mizuki.

Regarding this point, although Hinata is the future head of the Hyuga family, due to her age, she has not been able to mobilize some of the family's power, especially for more important things such as the intelligence department.

Therefore, she has no way to get accurate intelligence information.

"Then... is there anything else?"

Seeing Hinata stop talking, Ryosuke knew that she had told everything she knew, but he still took this opportunity to ask a question.

However, this question was not about Uchiha Sasuke, but about her own affairs.

But Hinata didn't seem to plan to say more to Ryosuke. After hesitating for a while, she shook her head silently and jumped from the chair to the floor, "You've been hard out, have a good rest tonight, good night."

As she spoke, she walked out, leaving a back view for Ryosuke.

Seeing Hinata's stubborn attitude, Ryosuke shook his head helplessly, but his smile was full of relief.

There is no doubt that something must have happened during the time he was away from home.

Most likely, it was about the curse of the bird in the cage.

After all, the time for the departure of the clan was only a few months, and Hinata should have started to take action.

But her actions did not seem to be so smooth, and Ryosuke could see this from the way she got along with Hyuga Hiashi.

In the past, Hinata always maintained a respectful but somewhat fearful attitude towards her father.

Although she later changed in character, she still had a shadow of her father's severity.

But from tonight, her attitude seemed to have changed recently.

Even Hyuga Hiashi, as a father, deliberately avoided contact with Hinata and did not even participate in dinner.

However, it was agreed that she would complete this matter by herself, so Ryosuke did not ask directly, but confirmed indirectly whether there was anything he needed to help.

But it seems that although this young wife is young, she is still very face-saving and responsible.

She was very tough and did not ask him to help a little bit, wanting to take on this matter by herself.

"But it's not easy to deal with a bird in a cage."

Ryosuke sat for a while, tidied up the study, and turned off the lights and left.

He tried to think about this problem from Hinata's perspective, but it was not easy to solve.

The next morning, Ryosuke had just finished breakfast.

Hinata hadn't left for school yet, and she heard someone coming to pass on the news that Uzumaki Naruto was waiting at the gate of the clan again.

Since their team got into trouble, Uzumaki Naruto came to the Hyuga clan to find Ryosuke almost every day.

But because the news of Ryosuke leaving the village was a secret.

On the surface, he asked for leave to study at home, so Hyuga Hiashi kept making excuses and didn't let him meet Ryosuke successfully.

Under Hinata's slightly complicated gaze, Ryosuke put on his clothes for going out and left.

This time, he didn't plan to meet Naruto in the clan.

After such a thing happened, Ryosuke was not sure whether the surveillance around Naruto would be called out again.

And now, Sarutobi Hiruzen has not returned yet.

The Konoha delegation to the Kingdom of Waves was a few days slower than Ryosuke.

Now the people in charge of the village are Koharu Utatane and Shikaku Nara, but behind the scenes, there is also Danzo Shimura.

Among these three people, Ryosuke is more assured of the two people in charge, but Danzo Shimura is very dangerous. Bringing Jinchūriki into the Hyuga clan is a sensitive matter at this time.

In order not to touch the nerves of this guy, Ryosuke chose to find a place outside to talk with Naruto.

As for... not meeting Naruto.

Ryosuke felt that this choice would affect their friendship.

Although Danzo Shimura is now a more troublesome guy, he is still not as presentable as other people in the ninja world.

So Ryosuke's attention to him is actually not as high as Naruto.

Stepping through the gate of the Hyuga clan, Ryosuke saw an extremely gloomy face.

The morning sun fell from the sky, but Naruto stood in the shadow of the wall.

Time seemed to have returned to the beginning.

Not long after graduating from the Ninja School, Naruto also came to see him once.

At that time, he was assigned to a good team, full of vitality and sunshine. Just as he was about to leave the village to perform a more important task, he couldn't wait to come to him to share his happiness and joy.

It was nearly a year after the interval. When he saw Naruto again, he had matured a lot, but he didn't have the smile he had before.

Hearing the footsteps, Naruto raised his head. In his azure eyes, after seeing Ryosuke's figure, his gloomy expression finally had some touches, "Long time no see... Ryosuke."

He walked up the mountain with his steps, and Ryosuke followed closely.

As he expected, the village was very vigilant about Naruto whose seal was loosened.

Without the third generation of Hokage making a final decision, the Konoha high-level officials sent several people from the Anbu to follow him and monitor his situation.

And for this, they unexpectedly made a decision, a decision that seemed natural from Ryosuke's perspective, but incredible from the perspective of the Konoha high-level officials.

That is, they did not hide this surveillance from Naruto.

Instead, through Hatake Kakashi, he told Naruto that someone would follow him to prevent him from going berserk again and not being able to control the power of the tailed beast.

This is a trust in him.

But this trust is rare for the Konoha high-level officials, especially without the command of the Third Hokage.

"They will only stare from a distance, will not approach, and will not eavesdrop on our conversations. You can rest assured about this."

Naruto said with a very forced and stiff smile on his face.

Although he was very sad and wanted to share this matter with his friends, he didn't want to be too intense so as not to affect Ryosuke's mood.

For this few friends, Naruto cherishes them very much.

Especially... after this incident.

"I went on a long trip recently and left the village. Because this news was only known to our family, my father kept sending people to shirk it with you." Ryosuke nodded and explained why he couldn't see anyone after so many times of looking for him.

After hearing his explanation, Naruto was stunned, "So that's how it is. I thought there were some restrictions that I couldn't do because of my identity... I will keep this a secret."

While talking, the two had unknowingly reached the top of the mountain.

The stone wall behind the mountain of Konoha Village is carved with statues of successive Hokage.

And the emergency shelter in the village is also inside this back mountain.

So now the mountain under their feet is actually empty inside.

"It's great, a quiet village."

From the mountain, you can clearly overlook the entire village.

The village under the sun looks quiet and beautiful, which makes Naruto couldn't help but sigh, "I heard that the third generation grandfather also went out of the village recently for the alliance."

"I believe that after the alliance is reached, the village can live in peace for a few years without worrying about the turmoil of war."

Because the alliance of Wave Country has been reached, this news is no longer a secret, but a major news for stabilizing the national situation.

"Yes, the signs of war will stop temporarily, and a longer peace will come." Ryosuke nodded, and regardless of the dust on the ground, he sat on the edge of the cliff and enjoyed the beauty of the moment.

The atmosphere became quiet.

After waiting for a long time, Naruto spoke again, "... You should have heard about my story, right?"

Staring at the village in front of him in a daze, Ryosuke was silent for a while, then turned his head to look at him standing, "Ah... I heard about it, condolences, since you are a ninja, sacrifice is inevitable."

Without acting, he was not very good at comforting people, so he thought for a long time.

"Of course I know!"

Facing Ryosuke's words, Naruto shouted suddenly, but quickly suppressed his emotions, "Sorry..."

But tears could not help but flow from his eyes down his cheeks.

From the moment he returned to the village after the mission failed and woke up in the hospital, he had been holding back for too long.

Whether at the funeral ceremony or in front of his other teammates Uesugi, Kakashi teacher, and Iruka teacher, he did not shed tears.

But in front of Ryosuke, he couldn't help his emotions.

After all, he was the first person who recognized him and was willing to be approached by him, except for the third-generation grandfather.

"Since... since I am a ninja, of course I will be prepared to sacrifice. I left the village to perform tasks other than D-level, and I was ready."

Tears mixed with snot fell one by one, and Naruto lowered his head and clenched his fists, "But... even if I am ready, I still can't accept it."

"Rin is like... a brother to me, to me and Uesugi. He is different from Kakashi, who is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. He is very reliable and always confident and sunny to give us encouragement and courage."

"But thinking that I will never... I will never see Rin again, he died in my In front of me, to cover me and Uesugi to leave, I really can't accept it. "

"This is the first time, the first time I have a new understanding of death. In the past, I always attacked the enemy and wielded weapons to take their lives. Because of the different positions, I didn't have any burden. "

"But this time, when the people around me were killed by the god of death to protect me, when I felt that kind of pain, I found that I was not ready to take other people's lives and be taken away by others. I..."

"I don't want to be a ninja anymore, Ryosuke."
