Master, Please Become a Hokage

Sarutobi Ryo struck her chest with a palm from a distance.

Hyuga Ugetsu groaned in pain and immediately fell backward from her kneeling position.

Her whole body collapsed and she fell to the ground.

"How dare you spout such nonsense!"

Sarutobi Ryo immediately scolded.

What one-man rule?

What 'my word is law'?

How come I don't know about this?

"Ugh..."

Hyuga Ugetsu, struggling to get up, immediately looked terrified.

Of course, she knew she had said the wrong thing.

Some things... everyone knows, but they must never be spoken aloud.

Now that she had broken a taboo, she had clearly upset him.

The thought of him refusing made Hyuga Ugetsu even more afraid, to the point where her body began to tremble.

"Young Master Ryo, I, I didn't mean it that way..." Seeing Hyuga Ugetsu immediately trying to explain with a look of fear, Sarutobi Ryo's expression remained unchanged.

"If you didn't mean it that way, then what way did you mean?"

He sat back down, picked up his teacup again, and slowly took a sip.

He had plenty of time to talk to her.

After all, he had to wait for Koharu to investigate the results.

Until then, some entertainment wouldn't be bad.

"I... I..."

Hyuga Ugetsu, stammering, became increasingly anxious, not knowing how to explain herself.

She only knew that she should beg Young Master Sarutobi.

After all, he was the most prominent figure in Konoha.

Orochimaru was his partner.

The Third Hokage was his father.

The Fourth Hokage was his teacher.

Princess Tsunade was his senior.

Even Mito-sama valued him highly...

Well, at least from an outsider's perspective, Sarutobi Ryo was highly valued by Uzumaki Mito.

Therefore...

Sarutobi Ryo could be said to be the undisputed number one in Konoha.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the entire Konoha belonged to him.

Therefore, as long as she could successfully plead, her fiancé would definitely be released.

"Hyuga Hiashi's crimes can absolutely not be forgiven..."

Sarutobi Ryo's answer made Hyuga Ugetsu slightly stunned, and then she collapsed to the ground with a thud, looking extremely weak and desperate.

Looking at the woman lying on the ground with a look of sorrow, Sarutobi Ryo changed his tone.

"However... I do have a way to guarantee Hyuga Hiashi's safety, so that he can live out his life in peace... of course, in prison..."

Sarutobi Ryo said.

Hyuga Hiashi wouldn't have to die.

But he would definitely not be able to get out.

However, under his management, protecting his safety, giving him more freedom of movement, and even allowing him to live out his life, could be done.

"So... what can you offer in return?"

"What? A fair trade, isn't it..."

Sarutobi Ryo continued.

"Or, you can choose not to make a deal with me..."

What Sarutobi Ryo didn't say was...

Ruri was unhappy.

So he agreed with Ruri not to let Hyuga Hiashi out.

He didn't tell this to Hyuga Ugetsu.

"I..."

Hyuga Ugetsu's body trembled slightly as she engaged in a fierce inner struggle.

Clearly, she couldn't make up her mind.

"Forget it..."

Sarutobi Ryo put down his teacup and stood up.

"Since you're unwilling, then go back..."

With that, Sarutobi Ryo turned and walked towards another courtyard.

"Young Master Ryo~!!"

The suddenly raised tone was accompanied by the sound of crawling.

Because Hyuga Ugetsu was weak and sickly, Sarutobi Ryo hadn't used much force earlier, but it still made her feel uncomfortable.

So at this moment, she could only use her hands and feet to crawl over from the ground.

Her white robe rubbed against the ground, making a crawling sound.

Coupled with her pure face and devilishly voluptuous figure, she exuded a fatal allure.

From the original work, Hinata and Hanabi's figures and faces showed the charm of their mother.

Crawling all the way to Sarutobi Ryo, Hyuga Ugetsu immediately hugged Sarutobi Ryo's leg: "Young Master Ryo, I, I agree...!"

Hyuga Ugetsu said in a trembling voice, agreeing to Sarutobi Ryo's deal.

"Very good..."

Sarutobi Ryo looked down at the woman hugging his leg, overlooking her desperate and sad face, and felt very gratified.

Chapter 242. Lightning Release Body Technique Beatdown

Neji, Sasuke, Naruto... and then Hinata.

The puzzle was almost complete.

How could he not feel happy?

Counting the days.

Hinata should be coming into this world soon.

Hyuga Ugetsu's visit came at the right time.

So, Sarutobi Ryo reached out and grabbed.

Hyuga Ugetsu only felt a blur before her eyes, accompanied by the sound of wind, and she was grabbed by Sarutobi Ryo.

Then, at lightning speed.

When the wind stopped and her dizzy head allowed her to see everything in front of her again.

The pitch-black underground.

Someone who was resting suddenly opened their eyes.

Uzumaki Mito, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed refining chakra, couldn't help but be surprised.

"She is..."

Hyuga Hiashi's fiancée?!

Uzumaki Mito was somewhat astonished.

And Hyuga Ugetsu was even more shocked.

The appearance of Mito-sama here could be considered as her valuing Young Master Sarutobi.

This pitch-black underground could also be explained as a place for seclusion.

But the problem is...

Why would Young Master Ryo bring her here?

"Mito, Mito-sama..." Hyuga Ugetsu quickly steadied herself and then bowed.

Then, her gaze fell on the girl with twin braids who was doing nothing on the side.

The other party's pure and otherworldly temperament had a beauty that was not tainted by the world.

If Uzumaki Mito-sama was a graceful fairy.

Then... this blue-haired girl had a temperament that was detached from human society and returned to nature.

The slug, which had been monitoring Uzumaki Mito under Sarutobi Ryo's orders, blinked its eyes.

Curiously looking at Hyuga Ugetsu who appeared here.

She hadn't seen Hyuga Ugetsu much, but she did recognize her.

"Mito-sama, there is some progress in the research on the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, please go and take a look..."

Sarutobi Ryo said to Uzumaki Mito in honorifics.

The meaning was obvious.

I'm here to do something, don't get in the way.

"Okay."

Uzumaki Mito immediately got up.

The so-called wise man submits to circumstances.

She wasn't a fool.

Sarutobi Ryo gave her a way out, and she naturally wouldn't give up on herself.

If she were to die socially in front of people, it would be something she couldn't accept.

Watching Uzumaki Mito-sama slowly leave accompanied by the blue-haired girl, the doubts in Hyuga Ugetsu's mind slowly dissipated.

It's just...

Old doubts disappeared, and new doubts arose.

Coming here, what exactly is...

Rumble.

The stairs behind her closed, and everything returned to silence.

Uzumaki Mito and the Slug had left.
