The Shimada Family's Ninja Journey

"Elder Jingyan, Yang Yi, sit down."

In the Shimada clan's clan, under the guidance of a Shimada ninja, Hyuga Kaghiko and his son came to the Shimada clan's conference room.

Genji was currently sitting where Hanzo usually sat.

After entering the room, Hyuga Kaghiko and his son first looked around and found that besides Genji, there were two other people in the conference room.

One is the former leader of the Shimada clan, Shimada Shigenen, who is sitting on a seat with his eyes closed, as if asleep, and the other...

"Hokage-sama?!"

Hinata Jinghiko blurted out, and Hinata Yoichi looked at the person sitting next to him in a daze.

"Eh? Say goodbye." Seeing the two people's reactions, Hanzo's shadow clone quickly waved his hand and said, "Genji is the one who calls the shots today, I'm just sitting here."

Only then did Hyuga Kaghiko and his son realize that the "Hanzo" in front of them had a very different temperament from the Hanzo he usually had.

"So it turns out to be Naruto's shadow clone..." The two of them understood clearly.

Can the shadow clone represent Naruto himself? There is no clear conclusion in Konoha.

But everyone has a tacit understanding. If the shadow clone behaves no differently than Naruto usually does, then even if they know it is a shadow clone, everyone will pretend they don't know.

The performance of Hanzo's shadow clone obviously does not belong to this situation. This funny clone almost shows that he doesn't care about anything.

Understanding this, the two of them immediately bowed slightly to Hanzo, sat aside, and turned their attention to Genji on the throne.

And Genji, who knew what this shadow clone was, didn't bother to care about it. He just said to Hyuga Kagahiko and his son: "You two, I wonder if there is anything going on with the Shimada clan?"

Hyuga Kaghiko and Hyuga Yoichi looked at each other after hearing this, and then Hyuga Kaghiko spoke: "Elder Genji, have you ever heard that many members of our Hyuga clan have been imprisoned for no reason?

Hokage-sama is not in the village now, and there has been such a big misunderstanding. We also want to ask for your opinion. If possible, please intercede and release our clan members as soon as possible."

Hearing that Hyuga Kagahiko downplayed the matter and turned it into a "misunderstanding", Genji felt funny and at the same time, a flash of anger flashed in his heart.

If the shadow guards hadn't been arranged in advance to protect Qianhui, Qianhui wouldn't know where she was at this moment.

Hinata Jinghiko actually wants to turn this matter into a misunderstanding with just one opening of his mouth?

Genji sneered in his heart, but said calmly: "Elder Kagahiko is joking, how did I hear that those Hyuga clan members attacked ninjas from the same village for no reason, and that's why they were arrested and locked up in Konoha Prison.

Elder Kagahiko, you are also the advisory elder of Konoha. You must be very aware of Konoha's many laws. Unprovoked attacks on ninjas from the same village are strictly prohibited."

Genji's retort made Hyuga Kagahiko's heart sink.

Genji knew too much, which forced Hyuga Kaghiko to face the most terrifying guess in his heart - it was Shimada Kazu who was behind this this time... no, it was Hokage.

Today's Konoha cannot compete with Naruto in terms of politics.

With the Shimada clan's strength and status, coupled with the prestige of the first Halo, I am afraid that only Hashirama and Madara joining forces can make the Hokage politically fearful.

Thinking of this, Hyuga Kagahiko suddenly regretted it.

Why did you listen to Hinata Seiji’s bad idea in the first place?

But now that the matter has come to this, Hyuga Jinghiko can only bite the bullet and say: "Elder Genji, that is just a private matter of our Hyuga clan. Some members of the branch family are disrespectful to the clan, which is very offensive. Out of clan rules, we...

"

"Elder Jingyan!"

Before Hyuga Kagahiko finished speaking, Genji directly said: "I have no control over your Hyuga clan's clan rules. But there are many ways to punish clan members that do not violate Konoha's laws.

No matter what, this time your actions have violated Konoha's laws, and they are of the worst nature... Elder Kagahiko is of the Hyuga clan, is he the Hyuga clan of Konoha?"

Hearing Genji's words, Hyuga Kaghiko suddenly broke into a cold sweat.

At this time, he had confirmed that the one who was behind the attack this time must be the Hokage.

But now, he has no time to think so much.

If the label of contempt for the village is taken off, then the fate of the Hyuga clan will definitely be even worse.

They came here to stop their losses, not to get a few more charges.

Thinking of this, Hyuga Kaghiko stopped quibbling and said continuously: "What Elder Genji said is that I lost my sense of proportion."

Genji then nodded and said: "Don't worry, elder. Those ninjas who have violated the law are only temporarily detained in Konoha Prison. The people in the interrogation room will also conduct normal interrogations on them. After everything is clear, they will be handed over.

It will be decided by the Hokage himself."

…

When he walked out of the Shimada clan's conference room, Hyuga Kaghiko's entire face turned pale.

The entire conversation was not so much a negotiation as it was Genji's unilateral notification to them.

After the initial discomfort, Hyuga Jinghiko realized that they had no bargaining chips at all.

At this time, all the witnesses and physical evidence were in the hands of the village, and the public opinion of the village was also very unfavorable to them.

Within the family, the entire clan and branch families have also been separated.

And at this moment, the Zong family can no longer use the caged bird to force the branch family to submit.

It can be said that the Hyuga clan has no cards to play at this time. The only thing they can do now is to hope that Hanzo will not impose too harsh punishments for the sake of the two clans working together for so long.

But Genji's attitude also made Hyuga Jinghiko feel desperate.

"Yoichi, it's all over, everything is over..." Hyuga Kaghiko seemed like an old man at this time.

Hinata Yoichi, who was silent on the other hand, was also filled with sadness.

I feel sad for my family that the gains gained from nearly ten years of hard work are about to be lost.

I also feel sad for my father who made one wrong move and caused heavy losses to the family.

"If I had known this, why did I do it in the first place..." Ri Xiangyang sighed secretly.

In fact, in his opinion, even if the clan's plan succeeds, the Hyuga clan will still suffer.

The branch family and the main family will be completely separated, and the Hokage will be dissatisfied with the behavior of the Hyuga clan. Losing those positions of the branch family members, the power and prestige of the Hyuga clan will also decline, and what the main family will gain is only a slight stabilization of their position within the family.

status.

How short-sighted?

Ri Xiangyang couldn't understand why his father, who had been shrewd for most of his life, didn't understand this?

But at this point, it's too late to say anything. Genji now represents Hokage.

The First Hokage wanted to use this matter as an excuse, but the already shitty Hyuga clan had no power to resist.

It was now in the afternoon, and the scorching sun of early autumn was still very poisonous, but for the Hyuga clan, this was destined to be the coldest autumn they had ever experienced.
