Hokage, The Strongest Uchiha From The Sign-In

Chapter 96 The Scapegoat In The Cage

Under the moonlight, young Neji raised his head, trying to see the face under the mask.

Unknowingly, time has come to the middle of the night. In the heart of the Hyuga clan, as the current head of the Hyuga clan, he is also the protagonist of this birthday celebration.

After a busy day, Hyuga Hiashi felt a little tired.

‘ Hizashi and Neji did not show up. As expected, they still have a hostile attitude towards the main family. The conflict between the branch house and the main family has reached an irreconcilable situation. In the end, they can only rely on Caged Bird. ’

Immersed in sentimentality and hesitation, Hiashi was about to return. The premonition honed by the battlefield for a long time made his eye sockets bulge.

“White eyes!”

It was late at night, and it should be quiet and everyone was asleep. A sneaky shadow swept out from the heart of the Hyuga.

Its direction was exactly the bedroom of his daughter, Hyūga Hinata.

‘There is actually a thief secretly spying on the Byakugan...’

Hyuga Hiashi’s face was grim. To secretly kidnap the eldest daughter of the clan was a provocation to Hyuga’s bottom line. No matter who came, he must pay with his life.

Not far ahead, the leader of the Cloud Shinobi envoy group, who had covered his face, was secretly delighted. The Hyuga clan had always been at ease for too long and did not even have the most basic vigilance.

This time, it was worth it to capture the blood of the Hyuga clan and get the Byakugan, even if it temporarily broke off relations with Konoha.

‘Konoha’s Anbu is trash. No wonder there are traitors like Orochimaru. Take this opportunity to escape directly from Konoha Village. As long as you can return to the territory of the Land of Lightning, it will be considered a success.’

In his excitement, the leader of the Cloud Shinobi envoy group revealed a flaw, and this flaw was infinitely magnified with the sudden figure in front of him.

‘Hyuga Hiashi! ’

“Thief, go to hell!”

In a hurry, just as he was about to swing the kunai in his hand, Hyuga Hiashi’s figure was already close in front of him. He used the Gentle Fist method to hit his vital points and fell to the ground dead.

On the other side, the pupils of the three Konoha Anbu who were confronting the figure and trying to capture him alive shrank, and the figure that kept delaying time in front of them turned into lightning and dissipated.

“Damn, it was just a little bit away…”

“Lightning Style· Shadow Clone. No, go and inform the Third Generation adults, what exactly do these guys from Cloud Shinobi want to do?”

The Anbu team leader’s face was livid. They were actually fooled around by a Shadow Clone. He hated himself for making a wrong judgment. He should have cut off Shadow Clone’s arm earlier.

At this time, the Hyuga clan members who received the warning hurried to the heartland of the Hyuga clan.

When the branch house people saw the unconscious Miss Hinata and the thief lying on the ground, they secretly thought it was bad.

The thief not only sneaked into the heart of the Hyuga clan, but also secretly kidnapped the eldest daughter. If it weren't for the chief's action, I'm afraid the Hyuga clan would really be looked down upon by others.

"Master Hiashi, what happened?"

"The damn thief dared to sneak into the clan's important place. I want to see who it is!"

The Hyuga elder hurried over and roughly deduced the specific situation with just one glance. He angrily lifted the black scarf covering his face.

"This!?"

"It turned out to be the Cloud Shinobi messenger leader!"

The Hyuga clan members on the side realized the seriousness of the matter. Hyuga Hiashi also stood up from the ground and approached the corpse of the Cloud Shinobi messenger leader with an ugly face.

"No wonder, no wonder he was proud for a moment after realizing that it was me. He fell into the trap."

A moment later, Sarutobi Hiruzen led a group of Anbu to come and looked at the Cloud Shinobi leader who died from the Gentle Fist. His old face was wrinkled and gloomy.

The next morning, the Cloud Shinobi envoys carefully examined the cause of the leader's death and took the lead in attacking Konoha.

The envoys began to exert pressure on Konoha on the grounds that Konoha did not want to reach peace with Cloud Shinobi and brutally killed the envoys in Konoha.

The Third Hokage and the two Hokage advisors had been in politics for a long time and directly pointed out that the Cloud Shinobi side was in the name of peace, but in fact it was for the bloodline limit of the Hyuga clan.

A parliament finally ended in a quarrel. Before leaving, the Cloud Shinobi side even clamored for Konoha to prepare for war.

......

Hokage office building, meeting room

"After the vote of the Jōnin of Konoha, most of the Jōnin still do not want to start a war rashly, and a few of them are willing to go to war..."

Mitokado Homura read the opinions of many Jōnin and gave a specific answer. Utatane Koharu had expected it and sighed faintly.

"Alas, the more rare and valuable the bloodline limit is, the more people want to get it. If the strategic significance and reconnaissance ability of the Byakugan fall outside the village, the consequences will be disastrous."

Things have come to this point, and it concerns the Hyuga clan. The problem cannot be left entirely to the village. The Hyuga clan must take responsibility. This is what Utatane Koharu meant.

"Enough, the Cloud Shinobi side also has excellent think tanks. They don't care whether they can get the Byakugan. They just want to take advantage of Minato's death and start a war."

Sarutobi Hiruzen turned and left. Seeing his attitude, I am afraid that the peace that Konoha has lasted for three years will disappear again at this moment.

"What a sinister plan, then we can only prepare for war with all our strength..."

Dong! Dong! Dong!

The door of the conference room was slowly opened, and the ninja of the Hyuga clan bowed his head and said respectfully.

"Third Generation, the head of the family and the elders would like to invite you to the clan. The elder knows the troubles of the village, and he has a way to avoid this dispute and war."

As soon as the words came out, Sarutobi Hiruzen was very surprised. Could it be that the elders of the Hyuga clan really have a way to avoid fighting and avoid this war that is likely to become the fuse of the Fourth Ninja World War?

Late at night, the candlelight flickered slightly, and the Hyuga clan gathered together, most of them looked bad.

"I am deeply sorry for the trouble I caused this time."

Hiashi bowed his head to apologize, and Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand. This time Cloud Shinobi came for the war, whether there was a Hyuga clan or not.

"No need to say more, no matter what, we have to hand over the bodies of our companions to quell the war. Konoha has not fallen to this point."

The tone was solemn, and after a few words, many Hyuga clan members were convinced by the Third Hokage.

"Don't bother, Third Hokage. If Cloud Shinobi wants it, then give it to them."

The Hyuga elder came hurriedly. Hiashi looked up and looked at the figure behind the elder. He had a bad feeling in his heart.

"What are you doing here?"

"Okay, Hiashi, the fate of the Hyuga branch house is to protect the Byakugan. Even if we follow the rules and show Konoha's attitude to Cloud Shinobi, we must not show weakness!"

"Hizashi will die in your place. This also shows Konoha's attitude and gives Cloud Shinobi a reasonable answer."

The Hyuga elder said in a serious tone. After a brief confusion in Hyuga Hizashi's eyes, he finally became relieved.

'In the end, I couldn't get my freedom. I can only choose my own way of death. I'm sorry, Neji, I can't see you grow up. '

"Father! Bastard, what are you going to force father to do?!"
