Konoha: The Legend of Chiba

"You are too polite, Nizuzu-sama."

Looking at the low profile of Patriarch Hinata in front of him, the white-haired young man was also sitting and bowing his body, as if responding with an equal etiquette, he opened his mouth and spoke.

In words, it is also very polite.

"I don't know if Master Chiba came to visit suddenly, what's the matter?"

Slowly straightening up, Hinata Hinata was not surprised by the same low profile of the white-haired young man in front of him, nor was he entangled in the issue of etiquette, but asked straightforwardly.

For Hinata Hyuzu, the mood for this young man in front of him is somewhat complicated.

On the one hand, the young man in front of him should be a character with mostly negative elements to the Hyuga clan. Even, it is a character who threatens to shake the foundation of the Hyuga clan. If it is another situation, this young man should be a character that the Hyuga clan must hunt down and eradicate.

On the other hand, this young man holds great power, and it is almost certain that the position of Hokage will be passed on to him. In other words, this person is someone that the Hyuga Clan must maintain trust in the future. The absolute trust that the Hyuga clan has established with the village for thousands of years cannot be destroyed in his hands. This is the key to the continuation and prosperity of the Hyuga clan in this dark and cruel ninja world, and it cannot be neglected.

But in this situation, on the one hand, this young man can shake the foundation of the Hyuga clan and make the Hyuga clan fall apart. He was originally the person who must be eradicated by the Hyuga clan. For a person who can't move at all, it can almost be said that this young man holds the lifeblood of the Hyuga clan, both in form and in substance.

What's even more helpless is that the relationship between the young man in front of him and the Hyuga clan is not purely friendly.

Even, there is still friction.

Considerable friction.

It is not an exaggeration to offend him deeply with the Hyuga clan.

As the patriarch of the Hyuga Clan, Hyuga Hyuzu is not a mediocre person, let alone someone who was hanged and did not know how to adapt in the past.

This grievance, which is right and which is wrong, is not important to him at all. What he is only worried about now is what kind of impact this grievance will have on the current Hyuga clan.

The sudden visit of this young man today is a good time to test this matter.

If this grievance can be resolved, then it doesn't matter what kind of low profile, he is willing to let him kneel down and apologize now.

This is related to the future of the Hyuga clan, and it is the inheritance of the Hyuga clan for thousands of years, so he can't help but cherish his personal honor and disgrace.

"This scroll, please accept it."

And hearing this sentence, the white-haired young man, that is, Qianye, didn't talk nonsense, and directly took out a scroll from his arms, and gently placed it on the coffee table between the two of them.

"This is?"

Regarding this, Hyuga Hidezu's gaze was fixed on this scroll almost subconsciously. After pondering for a moment, he raised his head, looked at Chiba who couldn't see any expression on his face, and asked.

reel?

What's the meaning?

But in his heart, he began to be suspicious.

Now Qianye's sudden visit must be something, and now the succession of power has been successfully completed. As soon as the young man in front of him came to power, he handled the affairs of the village in an orderly manner. In some areas, especially in defense, he was even better than the Third Hokage.

Although he does not participate in any organization of the village, Hinata Hyuzu still has this intelligence capability.

The Hyuga Clan also contributes to defense.

Moreover, the excellent behavior of the young man in front of him has already been drilled into his own ears without the need for the Hinata clan to investigate.

For the young man in front of him, in terms of work, he has almost done, and he has time to spare to settle the grievances with the Hyuga clan.

As for how to settle this grievance, Hyuga Hidetsu is actually not optimistic in his heart, especially after seeing the scroll in front of him.

To be honest, Hinata Hidetsu now doesn't have any good ideas in his head. Although there is only a scroll and a dead thing in front of me, for the Hyuga clan, it is very likely to be a disaster.

Of course, on this scroll, there will not be any blatant orders to exterminate the clan, even the young man in front of him cannot blatantly force it.

The Hyuga clan also has confidence.

However, on this scroll, there is an order for a secret mission that can be written, an order for the Hyuga clan to complete the secret mission.

For example, follow the orders of Nobuhiko Uchiha.

"This is the sealing technique for sealing a bird in a cage."

And at this time, Chiba seemed to see Hinata Hidetsu's doubts, so he said.

"The sealing technique that seals the bird in the cage!"

In this regard, Hinata Hyuzu almost stood up in shock, and an exclamation also blurted out.

The sealing technique that seals the bird in the cage!

What's this?

This is the lifeblood of the Hyuga Clan grasped by the young man in front of him, and it is also a sharp weapon that can collapse the entire Hyuga Clan.

Even, the reason why the Hyuga clan compromised and bowed their heads to this young man who was only a teenager at the time was because of this sealing technique.

The bird in the cage is the most fundamental of their Hyuga clan's current model, and it is also the foundation of the entire Hyuga clan's reproduction and prosperity.

And this sealing technique happened to be able to invalidate the bird in the cage, and it was still permanently invalid.

In the past, under the pressure of the clan elders, he tried to trigger Hyuga Yukina's caged bird more than once, but no matter how he tried, the signal was like a muddy cow into the sea, and there was no response at all.

Even after bowing her head, Hyuga Yukina's caged bird seal still showed no signs of being lifted.

It's just that Hyuga Yukina's officials became bigger and bigger, and when they became the deputy commander of the defense force, their Hyuga clan couldn't try anymore.

The deputy commander of the defense force is already an important high-level figure in Konoha, and the defense force is extremely convinced of her, almost the same as Taki Chiba in front of him is the only candidate for the Fifth Hokage, Hyuga Yukina is basically the defense The successor of the army, there are even rumors that Kenshin Watanabe, the commander of the defense force, once revealed when he was drunk that he might retire early.

Obviously, Watanabe Kenshin also attaches great importance to Hyuga Yukina.

If Hyuga Yukina's seal was suddenly released while trying, well, Hyuga Yukina would have died when the bird in the cage activated.

As for the activation of the bird in the cage, it may even be Hinata's clan.

At that time, things will be complicated.

At that time, this Taki Chiba's anger, no one will take care of them.

Originally, if Hyuga Yukina died at the hands of the Hyuga clan without becoming a high-level person, then the village would naturally mediate Taki Chiba's anger. The Hyuga Clan also has their cards, so they won't really have to succumb to the strength of this Taki Chiba.

Is Taki Chiba important to the village?

Important, and very important.

Can the sole heir of Naruto be unimportant?

However, isn't the Hyuga Clan important?

Important, of course important!

For thousands of years, no matter whether it is to check and balance other prominent families, or to check and balance the Konoha Honjin together with the Uchiha clan, the Hyuga clan is not a family status obtained only by showing loyalty. The contribution made, even if it is the resurrection of the first generation of Hokage, it still depends on how much face they have, and how polite they are.

The future Hokage is certainly important, but veterans of several dynasties like the Hyuga clan cannot live up to it.

If Hyuga Yukina was really killed with the bird in the cage, the village would not let Taki Chiba attack the Hyuga clan wantonly.

However, Hyuga Yukina is the deputy commander of the defense force, so it is different. If she really died on the caged bird, then even the village will deal with the Hyuga clan together with Taki Chiba.

The upper echelons of the village are the future pillars of the village, several levels higher than the mainstay, and these people are the ones who really support Konoha.

If the Hyuga clan kills a high-level person by hand, it is a flagrant rebellion, which has far exceeded the scope of internal affairs. ,

At this time, due to emotion and reason, the village will not give the Hyuga clan any more face.

It is true that the Hyuga Clan has done a lot of hard work, but when did the village become soft on such things as mutiny, back then the Uchiha Clan also made credit for their hard work, and by the way they often blame Konoha, but when it comes to mutiny, No, just do whatever you want, kill it in the cradle if it should be killed in the cradle.

Although the Uchiha clan is not well received by the village, after all, the ancestors have left the entire ninja world and are still trembling traitors, but this does not mean that the Hyuga clan who are popular in the village can be forgiven.

In any case, this sealing technique has captured the lifeblood of their Hyuga Clan after all. If this Taki Chiba is willing, the Hyuga Clan's family division system will immediately fall apart. The shackles of thousands of years will not guarantee the separation of families. There will be no grudges, or in other words, there will definitely be resentment, especially those who have been relegated to the Separation Family in the past, and the descendants of the Separation Family who have suffered various injustices.

Without the shackles of the caged bird, it can be said that the Hyuga Clan will mutiny overnight.

But now, this Taki Chiba put this thing related to the lifeblood of the Hyuga clan in front of him, but Hyuga Hyuzu's heart slowly tightened.

Threat?

At the same time, such a thought crossed his mind.

"Lord Chiba, what do you mean by...?"

However, he couldn't figure out what it meant after all, so he could only ask.

However, in the words, it became serious.

Although the lifeblood is in the hands of the other party, he is willing to kneel down and admit his mistakes if the grievance can be resolved, but this does not mean that he has to keep a low profile if someone threatens him with something naked.

The Hyuga Clan has the dignity of the Hyuga Clan. If the matter is resolved in an amicable manner, then you should lower your stance and lower your stance, and everyone can discuss it. You can say what you want, and the matter will pass. .

But if it is a direct threat, then the nature is different, and the Hyuga clan is not vegetarian.

Moreover, their Hyuga Clan has no excuses, just like what their first Patriarch said, if they have done nothing wrong, then no matter where they are, they don't have to bow their heads to anyone, even if this person is Hokage.

In fact, according to the records handed down from the clan, the first patriarch, that is, the first patriarch after joining Konoha, even the Uchiha Madara couldn't find any fault. The wave family has always had no way to interfere, so far Hinata has formed a situation in which all families are restricted.

And this sentence has been passed down as the ancestor's teaching.

The Hyuga Clan, descendants and grandchildren have always adhered to it.

And the current situation is very similar to this Taki Chiba threatening him with something that controls the lifeline of the Hyuga clan.

That's two different things.

Regardless of whether Taki Chiba is the future Hokage or not, since there is nothing wrong with the Hyuga 7 clan, then this is Taki Chiba's fault.

And the family that threatens his own village, regardless of whether the family is prominent or not, and regardless of the family status, Taki Chiba will be punished, even if he is the future Hokage.

This is the iron rule of maintaining stability in the village.

It is also the confidence of the Hyuga clan now.

"Master Nizuzu, please don't misunderstand."

In this regard, Chiba obviously also heard the change in Hinata Hyuzu's words, and said at the moment.

"Then you are?"

Hearing this, Hyuga Hidezuki frowned slightly, but the tone in his mouth did not soften in the slightest.

"Back then, I was the one who didn't think about it."

Regarding this, the calmness and gentleness on Qianye's face slowly faded away, and a feeling of regret surged up.

"then?"

Hearing this, Hinata Hyuzu's brows that were slightly frowned were completely frowned, but her tone was no longer so blunt.

"Yes."

To this, Qianye nodded, but only responded affirmatively, but didn't say anything.

Because of Xue Nai?

That's why you handed over this sealing technique to me?

But at this time, Hinata Hinata who heard this was stunned, and such a thought was skipped in his mind.

This year, coupled with lack of consideration, it is obvious that the young man in front of him is talking about forcing the Hyuga clan to bow their heads.

"Yeah……"

Regarding this, Hyuga Hyuzu didn't ask why, but just stretched out his hand, put the scroll in his arms, nodded, and said this simply.

For Hyuga Hyuzu, it is not difficult to see that this is the young man in front of him apologizing, why the apology is naturally to ease the relationship between the Hyuga clan.

Although I don't know what it means to apologize to a scroll, and I don't know how sincere Taki Chiba's apology is, but it shows an attitude that the future Hokage attaches great importance to the Hyuga clan, and the future Hokage does not intend to change The relationship between the village and the Hyuga clan.

At this time, Hinata Hinata, who originally wanted to end this grievance, naturally would not say anything more, and there is no need for a serious apology or the like for this matter. The future Hokage is the future Hokage after all, and we still have to save it for now. Face-to-face, public apologies, etc., will only happen when the position is stabilized, apologizing and subduing will not affect Hokage's popularity.

Now, just know what to fight.

But now, he himself accepted the object of apology, which also conveyed goodwill and expressed his willingness to ease the relationship.

Yeah……

So, no wonder, Hinata Hyuzu was chosen.

And at this time, looking at Hinata Hidetsu's appearance, Chiba's mouth quietly flashed a wry smile.

Hinata Shinsuke, he died unjustly!
