Swish, swish.

Under the faint moonlight, a figure was walking slowly in front, and another figure was chasing closely behind.

Even though he was being chased, the figure was still humming softly, and the song kept echoing in Hizashi's ears.

Kagome, Kagome~

The bird in the middle~

I'm so happy~

The night is bright~

The crane and the turtle are so happy~

Who is the one in the front~

"Who is this guy?"

Hizashi frowned tightly, and the song made him more irritated, and the depression in his heart became more intense.

This is Hyuga, Konoha.

Although most of the defense forces are focused on the Kumogakure envoys and the daughter of the main family, it is also very unwise to sing and expose the position.

"And this guy has been stuck at the edge of the Byakugan range. Is he trying to lead me somewhere?"

Wait! No! !

Hizashi suddenly stopped, as if he had just woken up from a dream and realized something.

"Resolve!" He made seals with both hands to disrupt the flow of chakra in his body.

The ballad that had been echoing in his ears disappeared instantly, and the picture in front of him gradually distorted and changed.

The quaint courtyard, the scattered wood chips, and Neji who fainted next to him.

It turned out that he had never left the courtyard from beginning to end, and had been wandering in illusions.

Hizashi's chest rose and fell, panting, and his expression was horrified: "Illusion? When?!"

After removing the illusion, he immediately found many mistakes in the details.

"It's so obvious that they are luring you into a trap or luring the tiger away from the mountain. How could I fall for it, or even abandon Neji and chase him alone?"

But he didn't realize it at all, and he ran with that figure for five minutes!

If he hadn't accidentally discovered that the blind spot of the Byakugan had disappeared, he didn't know how long he would have been immersed in the illusion!

Hiashi was full of fear, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

But with a glance, he actually found a figure sitting quietly in the corridor.

Hiashi subconsciously blocked Neji behind him, and at the same time wanted to send out a signal of enemy invasion.

"The past five minutes are enough for me to kill you countless times, and the moment you send out the signal, it is enough for me to cut your throat, pierce your heart, blow up your head, and kill the child behind you at the same time."

In a cold and cruel word, accompanied by violent and bloody murderous aura.

Hashi couldn't help but stiffen his body, and the movement of his hands also stopped instantly.

This guy is serious and has the ability to do it...

Hiashi was tense all over, and slowly turned around to look at the figure.

The man's upper body was hidden in the shadows, and his figure and face could not be seen clearly, but the three-eyed fox mask on his face could be vaguely seen.

His clothes were also very unfamiliar, and it was highly likely that he was not from Konoha.

Hiashi took the initiative to ask, "Is the illusion you just used an auditory illusion?"

Illusions use chakra to interfere with the opponent's five senses, disrupt the opponent's chakra, and make them fall into hallucinations.

Visual illusions are the most common type of illusions, and the Uchiha clan is best at using visual illusions.

There are very few illusions that use senses such as hearing, smell, and touch.

Hiashi had only heard about it, and this was the first time he had seen an auditory illusion.

But the man did not answer him, but just stretched out his hand to tease the bird in the cage, and did not even look at him.

He said calmly, "I'm going to say a few words now and then leave, and you have to listen to my words and then go home to take care of your children."

"Every few years from now, you will look at his face and be glad that you are still alive, and glad that you choose to walk towards the light instead of death."

"Because on a certain night, you chose not to take a certain path."

The masked man turned his head to look at Hizashi, and his tone was extremely calm from beginning to end: "Do you understand what I said?"

Looking at the blue eyes behind the mask, which were as calm as dead water, Hizashi felt a chill in his heart.

When did such a person appear in the ninja world? He didn't even receive any news.

Just then.

The masked man suddenly said, "Your death is coming, but you don't know it at all."

"What do you mean?"

The masked man didn't care about his reaction and reached out to open the cage that imprisoned the bird.

But I don't know if it has been locked up for too long and has forgotten how to fly.

The bird was indifferent to the vast sky outside and still pecked at the food gently in the cage.

Menma hummed the ballad again.

"Bamboo cage, bamboo cage eyes~ When will the little bird in the cage come out?"

"At dawn~ The crane and the turtle slipped~ Who is the one behind them?"

And Hizashi, who had just been bound by the illusion, subconsciously made a seal upon hearing the sound.

But the next second, his white eyes widened instantly.

"You!"

The figure who was originally sitting on the corridor disappeared in an instant, holding his hands that he wanted to make a seal.

Although the force was very light, it made him completely unable to move.

"Isn't this nursery rhyme nice?"

Although he couldn't see the face under the mask, Hizashi always felt that this guy seemed to be laughing.

But he didn't find it funny at all.

He only felt fear.

With this treacherous speed, if the masked man wanted to kill him, he could really cut off his head in an instant.

"I heard this nursery rhyme from an island. The children there were playing a game at the time."

The masked man said, "The ghost child squats in the middle and covers his eyes. A group of children sing this nursery rhyme around the ghost. When the ghost child finishes singing, if he guesses who is facing him from behind..."

"That person will become the scapegoat for the bird in the cage."

The masked man's tone became meaningful: "The name of this nursery rhyme is "Bird in the Cage."

Through the faint moonlight, Hyuga Hiashi saw the man in front of him clearly.

He wore a white three-eyed fox mask on his face, black fingerless sleeves, dark red bandages on his arms and calves, and only black short hair was exposed.

His dress, voice, and figure were all very unfamiliar.

Hizashi said solemnly: "Who are you, and why are you here?"

"Although my people are now gathered in the ancestral hall, as long as you send a signal, even if you kill me, you can..."

"You can try."

The masked man interrupted his threat directly and said calmly: "Although the strength of this clone is very weak and cannot destroy Konoha, it is still no problem to destroy Hyuga."

... Clone?

Hizashi was stunned, veins popped up around his eye sockets, and he was shocked in an instant.

His white eyes couldn't see through it?

However, this terrible chakra...

"If it's really like what he said, then a shadow clone has this kind of strength?"

Although chakra cannot fully represent strength, it can reflect strength to a certain extent.

And in his white eyes, the concentration of chakra in this guy's body is more dazzling and richer than that of the third generation Hokage!

"I came here just to let the bird in the cage fly, but it seems that he doesn't want to leave."

The masked man stretched his palm into the cage, and the bird stood in his palm very obediently.

However, once he tried to grab the bird out of the cage, the bird would start to struggle violently.

The masked man stared at the bird flapping its wings and trying to escape from his hand.

Pah!

"We will see each other soon."

Under the horrified gaze of Hinata Hizashi, the masked man shook off the blood on his hands, turned around and left without saying anything more.
