The Shimada Family's Ninja Journey

Looking at Hanzo's cold eyes, Hyuga Kaghiko knew that he had no room for counterattack. In the end, he could only lower his head sadly and said: "I have nothing to say, but it depends on what Hokage-sama does..."

When he said these words, Hinata Jinghiko's heart was bleeding.

Although he does not have a high voice among the top management of Konoha, this identity alone has brought a lot of invisible benefits to the Hyuga clan.

Moreover, as the highest-level person in Konoha, he can also know the policy direction of the village at the first time, and use this to make profits for the Hyuga clan.

It can be said that after serving as the advisory elder for more than half a year, in terms of power, the Hyuga clan has truly secured its first position among the three major families in the village.

But now, Hyuga Jinghiko knows that he, the consultant elder, has reached his limit.

As expected, Hanzo said calmly: "Hyuga Kagahiko, as an elder of Konoha, knew the laws of Konoha, but still planned the attack. Now, in the name of Hokage, I am removing Hyuga Kagahiko from the position of advisor to the elder.

As for those Hyuga ninjas who took action, considering that they were also acting under orders, they were imprisoned in Konoha Prison for a month, with minor punishments and severe punishments, and those who had public offices were removed from their public offices."

Every time Hanzo said a word, Hyuga Kaghiko's face became paler. In the end, Hyuga Kaghiko's whole person looked a little shaky.

Hanzo certainly did not punish the Hyuga clan randomly.

Even though the Zong family looks miserable now, they still have absolute initiative in the face of the separation and the caged bird in their hands.

Moreover, the branch families are not monolithic.

Those Hyuga ninjas who attacked Hyuga Chie and others were almost all ninjas from separate clans.

After all, the Hyuga clan does not have such a large population.

The Hyuga clan's clan system has been divided for so many years, so how could the clan not have some die-hard loyalists?

The Zong family itself is small in number, so these die-hard loyalists are naturally selected and trained from branch families.

These die-hard ninjas also have their own close relatives. Although these people can only be regarded as a minority in the branch family, they have also led to internal disputes in the branch family.

If you want to abolish the clan division system, you must not only put pressure on the clan from the outside, but also use internal divisions to coerce the clan.

This two-pronged approach is the best approach.

Since his teammates were unreliable, Hanzo had to find a way to help them. In order to put enough pressure on the split family, Hanzo chose to weaken the clan.

Removing Hyuga Kagahiko's advisor elders is a major weakening. Removing those ninjas under the clan from their official positions and imprisoning them for a month is also a major weakening.

As for the elders of the Hyuga clan, most of them are retired ninjas, and they have not taken action personally, so it is difficult for Hanzo to target them.

However, there are only three things that the clan family relies on the most when facing the branch: Hyuga Kaghiko's position as advisor and elder, the ninja power in the clan's hands, and the Caged Bird Curse Seal.

Hanzo took advantage of this opportunity to cut off their two major reliances, which was considered to be the limit.

Upon hearing Hanzo's punishment, the entire Hokage's office fell silent.

It's not that Hanzo's punishment was unfair, the intensity of his punishment to the Hyuga clan was completely businesslike.

But it was this kind of official business that made Tobirama, Izuna and others a little stunned.

"I didn't expect the Hokage to be so cruel..." Tobirama secretly marveled.

Who doesn't know that the Hyuga clan and the Shimada clan have a good relationship. The two clans have cooperated for so many years, and even if they wear a pair of pants, they have a close relationship.

Normally, if Hanzo deliberately suppressed this matter, he would even have to drink three drinks as a penalty to avoid making an exception.

Even after seeing the appearance of Hyuga Kagahiko and Hanzo today, Tobirama only thought that he might give a small punishment and warn the Hyuga clan, but he didn't expect that Hanzo would directly act cruelly.

"The Hokage's move... is probably to attack the caged bird?" After all, it was Senju Tobirama. After thinking for a moment, he guessed Hanzo's purpose.

When he guessed it, he couldn't help but sigh that Hanzo's timing was indeed good.

This time, the Hyuga Clan's prestige fell to the bottom, and it was deeply involved in internal conflicts. Hanzo once again held back all the power in the family's hands for a full month.

It can be said that within this month, facing the separation of the family, the Hyuga clan had no confidence at all except a caged bird.

However, there is nothing illegal about this combination of punches. Everyone will only think that the Zong family brought the blame on themselves, and will not think that the Hokage is bullying others.

"It's really a good idea..."

Tobirama sighed secretly in his heart.

Just when all the elders were stunned, Kurama Canglan spoke.

"I support Hokage-sama's opinion."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned again, even Hanzo looked at her with some interest.

Again, Kurama Canglan's level was not high enough to speak at this high-level meeting, and this time, Hanzo did not take the initiative to ask her to speak by name.

Kurama Solan also knew that she was a little anxious, but seeing that Hinata Kagahiko was about to give up his position as an advisor elder, of course she wanted to seize such a good opportunity.

She just heard her say: "Lord Hokage, the behavior of the Hyuga clan this time is indeed too outrageous. I think this punishment is reasonable."

With Kurama Solan taking the initiative, the other elders had no friendship with the Hyuga clan, so naturally they were too lazy to speak for them.

"I also agree..."

"Seconded!"

"..."

After a round of voting, the plan to deal with the Hyuga clan was unanimously approved.

Hinata Jingyan's face was ashen, and even his lips were trembling: "Yes, fire... Hokage-sama."

Nodding, Hanzo knew that the preliminary action of abolishing the caged bird was completed.

Next, it mainly depends on whether the branch is powerful enough.

As an outsider, Hanzo could only give some support to the branch family secretly.

But Hanzo is not too worried, the current family separation is not the Hyuga family separation in the plot era decades later.

During the period of the ninja clan's melee, the branch family was the backbone of the Hyuga clan. At that time, the clan's oppression of the branch family was relatively light.

That is to say, it was only in recent years that the Zong family began to gradually become more serious.

Because they are under the control of a caged bird, it is difficult for the separated families to resist, but generally speaking, the current separated families are far from being subdued.

The separation of the Hyuga family is like a spring that is gradually tightened. In the original time and space plot era, this spring was "crushed", but now, it is far from that point.

The harder the Zong family pressed before, the stronger the spring rebounded now.

After taking one last glance at the lost Hyuga Kagahiko, Hanzo noticed Kurama Solan, who was sitting at the bottom of the seat and looking at him longingly.

After pondering for a moment, Hanzo added: "The vacant position of advisor elder will be temporarily replaced by Kurama Canglan."

Hearing this, Kurama Canglan suddenly felt a trace of ecstasy on his face.

"Yes, Hokage-sama."
