Konoha: The King of Souls from Uchiha

Since he wanted to see Gen Uchiha, an honored guest, Hyuga Hizashi took off the clothes he had worn to commit seppuku and put on a set of decent clothes.

In the living room, three people were sitting around the table, with Hinata Hizashi as the master in the middle, Uchiha Gen on the left, and Hinata Hizashi on the right. There were three cups of fine tea on the table, and the tea was fragrant.

"I wonder what's important about Minister Xuan's sudden visit?"

Hinata Hiashi looked at his brother silently for a moment, and then looked at Uchiha Gen with a serious expression.

"I've heard about the leader of the Kumogakure ninja. I wonder what the rules of the nobility are?"

"Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean to be a joke."

"I just want to understand the attitude of the nobles, and then share my thoughts with you two."

Gen Uchiha took a sip of tea, smiling and speaking in a gentle tone.

"Oh, I'm ashamed to say that, I..."

Hinata Hizashi sighed, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Hinata Hizashi.

"I plan to die for my brother, and I will die voluntarily to give Kumogakure an explanation to avoid a war between the two sides." Hinata Hizashi said with a determined look on his face.

"I don't agree. I'm on guard now. You don't want to knock me out and then act on your own."

Hinata Hizashi stared at Hinata Hizashi with his eyes and shouted in a deep voice.

Hinata Hizashi had already made up his mind, so the two brothers soon started arguing.

Gen Uchiha looked at this scene with emotion.

The fate of Neji and his son on this day was truly a tragedy.

Hizashi died for his brother, and before he died, he asked Hizashi to take good care of Neji.

Neji did have no worries about food and clothing, but that was all. He had been helping Hinata train as a sparring partner.

Neji was dissatisfied because he had no progress in sparring with Hinata, and like Hizashi, he showed a trace of murderous intention, and was tortured by the caged bird until he was in pain.

How similar is his painful and ferocious appearance to Hizashi's former appearance?

At that time, Hizu had not given up on Hinata, and he stirred the caged bird out of protecting his daughter. Although it was excusable, his treatment of Neji seemed a bit harsh.

You can warn, you can punish in other ways, but you subconsciously encourage the caged bird...

His father died for you...

But it's not worth making a fuss about, because at that time, Nizu still put family rules first, and family ties and other things were put in the back.

It wasn't until he saw the performance of Hinata, Neji, and Naruto in the Chunin Exam that his faith was shaken, and he gradually valued family ties over family rules.

With the strict rules of the big family, the clear class barriers of the Hyuga clan, and the rigid and serious character of Hyuga Hizu...

Ningji probably won't be able to enjoy his uncle's care these years.

Neji was finally able to learn the clan's secret skills without having to explore on his own, and he could enjoy some of his uncle's care, but he died on the battlefield of the Fourth War.

Counting it all, Neji did not have many good days, and his short life was full of suffering.

If Hinata Hizashi hadn't died, Neji's situation would have been much better, right?

He didn't come here specifically to save Hinata Hizashi or change Neji's fate, but he was happy to do this kind of incidental thing.

Sacrifice one's own people to negotiate peace?

Or is it when one's own side is justified?

When he went to TMD, the principle he adhered to was expressed in a sentence he saw in his previous life: no ceding territory, no indemnity, no surrender, no tribute, no marriage.

As his mind was spinning, Uchiha Gen's face became solemn and he said in a deep voice, "You two, stop arguing and listen to my opinion."

The two brothers, who were blushing at the argument, temporarily stopped fighting after hearing this.

"Huh... I made Minister Xuan laugh." Hinata Hinashi took a deep breath and said.

"How can you laugh at two people? The two brothers have a deep love, which is rare and enviable."

"My opinion is that the Hyuga clan does not need to give any explanation, but let the Kumogakure mission give an explanation to the Hyuga clan and Konoha."

"ah?"

Hearing these shocking words, the two brothers were stunned. Did they hear it correctly?

"Don't you two realize that there is something strange about the appearance of the leader of the Kumogakure ninja in the residence of the Hizu clan leader?"

"Silently avoiding the police department, ANBU, and the Hyuga clan's patrol candidates, we arrived at Hinata's bedroom with precision and attacked."

"Tsk, tsk, is this something that the leader of the Kumogakure ninja who is unfamiliar with this place can do?"

"Aren't the ninjas from both tribes and one tribe just useless people who only know how to make a living?"

"Besides, if a thief invades a mansion and steals people, it's reasonable to kill them in counterattack."

The two brothers looked at each other, and then Hinata and Hinashi said with a wry smile: "Both of us are more or less aware of the strange things that Minister Xuan said."

"But they are threatening war, and the higher-ups don't want to start a war. They are bent on seeking peace, and they are using righteousness to coerce us. What can we, the Hyuga clan, do?"

"If we refuse to give an explanation and the war breaks out, I'm afraid how many people will blame us, the Hyuga clan.

"I'm afraid the reputation of our Hyuga clan will plummet, and even become stinky..."

"I, Hizashi, and the entire Hyuga clan cannot bear such a price."

Fame and honor are things that many families in this world care about very much, and it is not uncommon for them to sacrifice their lives for this.

The Hyuga clan sacrificed Hyuga and Hizashi for this, and the Uchiha were even more miserable.

In the original work, Uchiha Itachi was ignored and together with Obito destroyed the entire Uchiha clan.

Not wanting Uchiha to be called a traitor for his hopeless rebellion was one of the important reasons why Uchiha Itachi took action.

As the eldest son of Uchiha Fugaku, Itachi was instilled in him by Fugaku, Mikoto and the elders of the clan the importance of Uchiha's reputation and honor since he was a child.

Sasuke was not lightly affected either.

Regarding things like reputation and honor, Uchiha Genya values ​​​​quite a lot, but not to the point where "reputation is like dirt and disdains the ridicule of the benevolent".

If necessary, such as for survival or for greater benefits, you can give up these gadgets at any time.

"I understand your concerns, but don't you feel too aggrieved?"

"Kumogakure negotiated peace because he couldn't get any advantage on the front line."

"Small-scale wars don't bring advantages, but large-scale wars can?"

“One on one, who is Konoha afraid of?

"Yes, Konoha needs to cultivate and thrive, doesn't Kumogakure need it?"

"If it's not necessary, why would Yunyin negotiate for peace?"

"I think Yunyin is pretending to be powerful and bluffing. They don't dare to start a large-scale war."

"If there is an accident, then fight!"

"We will fight with Yunyin as long as he wants, until we win!"

"If other ninja villages have evil intentions, drag other ninja villages into the water."

"At worst, the fourth ninja world will break out early. The five major ninja villages will fight to the death, giving other small ninja villages a chance to rise. The most serious consequences will be that the five major ninja villages will end together."

"If you drag the Kumogakure family, you won't lose. If you drag the other ninja villages with you, you will make a profit."

"What are you afraid of?"

"Don't be afraid, just do it!"

Hearing Uchiha Gen's words, the two brothers Hyuga Hizashi and Hyuga Hizashi had mixed feelings in their hearts.

They also felt aggrieved and felt that Yunyin was bluffing, but they didn't dare to gamble because the consequences of losing would be too serious.

The other two brothers felt that Gen Uchiha was really tough, much tougher than Danzo, and that he had just reached a state of madness.

But it’s scary and very, very uplifting at the same time!

In fact, Uchiha Gen has some words that he hasn't said yet.

That is, since Konoha no longer exists, then the other ninja villages have no meaning in existing, so they might as well be destroyed together and return to the Warring States Period.

This may be the extreme side of Gen Uchiha.

For owners of the Mangekyo Sharingan, even if they evolved through a special path, it's normal to be a little extreme, right?

"Head of the Hizashi Clan, head of the Hizashi Clan, do you still remember the original intention of everyone joining Konoha?"

After hearing this, the two brothers fell into memories. Without waiting for the two to answer, Gen Uchiha answered on his own.

"It's to protect family members, to better continue the family, for a sense of security, and then for peace."

"This order cannot be reversed, and priority cannot be ignored."

"Now that the majestic Konoha can't protect a family member, the Konoha ninja, even though Kumogakure is at fault first?"

"Also, even if a war breaks out, the reputation of the Hyuga clan cannot be reversed..."

When the two brothers heard this, their eyes lit up and they were completely moved.

Hinata Rizu bowed solemnly and said: "I would like to hear from Minister Wenxuan."

Uchiha Gen drank tea to moisten his throat, waved his hands and said: "Takami can't talk about it, it's just some immature ideas."

"What do ordinary ninjas and ordinary villagers of Konoha know?"

"They are blindly obedient. If there is only one kind of news, then basically they will believe whatever news the top management releases..."

"In that case, let's face public opinion against public opinion."

"If the top brass of Konoha puts the blame for the outbreak of war on the Hyuga clan, then the Hyuga clan will spread the word about the bad behavior of the Kumogakure ninja leader."

“This kind of behavior can be exaggerated appropriately, and it can also settle old scores.”

"As far as I know, Cloud Hidden Village sent people to abduct the young Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, now the Fourth Lady Uzumaki Kushina."

"In addition to our Konoha, we can also add Kumogakure's theft against other ninja villages and ninja clans."

"Although it may be difficult to collect everything at once, it doesn't matter. You can make something out of nothing and adulterate the truth."

"In short, it is to portray Yunyin as a habitual criminal with a habit of stealing and robbery!"

"Let ordinary ninjas and civilians believe that Kumogakure just likes to steal, and if he can't steal, he wants to use war to rob."

"Kumogakure is a villain, so the Hyuga clan is naturally a decent one."

"In this way, the reputation of the Hyuga clan will basically be preserved."

"It doesn't matter if the former public opinion is damaged, because the latter public opinion can naturally gain the support of some supporters."

"As long as public opinion is not one-sided, people will gradually forget it as time goes by..."

"Time can make people forget everything."

"If the Hyuga clan wants to restore its reputation among the opposing public as soon as possible, there is no way out."

"All you need to do is bend down the waist of the wealthy and nobles and do more good deeds for ordinary ninjas and ordinary people in Konoha."

"For example, donate money to the lonely elderly people, children and other people in need in the village."

After saying that, Gen Uchiha picked up the tea cup and took a sip. After talking so many words, it was really useless water.

The two brothers were dumbfounded. There were too many twists and turns in the hearts of such young people, right?

Is this too different from ordinary Uchiha?

Compared with Fugaku and others, he is also several times more thoughtful.

But today's operation was really eye-opening. In this way, there is really no need to compromise with Konoha's higher-ups and Kumogakure...

"Secretary Xuan is so talented, I admire you greatly."

As Hinata Hiashi spoke, he personally picked up the teapot and poured tea for Gen Uchiha.

"Minister Xuan, let me offer you a cup of tea instead of wine." Hinata Hizashi said solemnly, holding up the tea cup.

Who wants to die if it's possible?

Neji was still so young, he wanted to see his son grow up, get a wife and have children.

"I can't say he's a great talent, he's just a little smart."

"Here, drink."

"I'll toast too."

After drinking tea, Hinata Hiashi said with a serious face: "Minister Xuan, after listening to what you said, I am willing to take a tough stance against the top management of Konoha and Kumogakure, but I just need your support."

"Without the support of the Uchiha clan, we, the Hyuga clan alone, may not be able to withstand the pressure from Konoha's top brass..."

Gen Uchiha smiled and said: "This is natural."

"Since I came to your house today, I took the initiative to wade into this muddy water. There is no reason to just sit back and watch."

"It's just that I think Uchiha and Hinata can advance and retreat together not only on this matter, but on other things as well."

"With two powerful families joining forces, how can Konoha's top brass dare to act rashly?"

"I tell you that the policy pursued by Sarutobi Hiruzen is to suppress the wealthy clans and support the small and medium-sized clans."

"You can think back on his various policies and actions since he came to power, and you will surely be able to draw conclusions."

Hinata Hizashi recalled the words after hearing this. Hinata Hizashi was too lazy to recall, gritted his teeth and said: "There is no need to recall, just based on his behavior this time."

"I am willing to join forces with the Uchiha clan."

"It's just that if you want the two clans to fully join forces, you need to wait until after this incident for me to clean up the second and fifth members of the family."

"Otherwise, those people, together with the top management of Konoha, might cause some trouble..."

Uchiha nodded slightly and said, "Okay."

Hinata Hinata's eyes flickered and he said, "Boss Xuan, how about you accept Hinata as your disciple?"

Gen Uchiha was slightly startled when he heard this. Accepting Hinata as his disciple?

No, how is this possible?

It's not like Xiao Longnu and Yang Guo. They are just too beastly. How can they have the face to face Rizu in the future?

It's better to be an older brother, because it's easier to switch roles at will.

"Hinata is too young, and the route I am taking is not suitable for teaching him. And given your status, it is best for you to teach him."

"If you really want to deepen our relationship, let's do this. I'll take Neji as my apprentice."

Hinata Hizashi was ecstatic when he heard this. He could not maintain his serious and solemn appearance, and the corners of his mouth opened into flowers.

His father, the head of the branch family, could not completely control Ningji in the special family of the Hyuga clan, but at least the Uchiha clan leader, who had the same status as the Hyuga clan leader, could.

Although Hinata Hiashi felt a little regretful, he still agreed straightforwardly.

How could he stand in the way of a younger brother who was willing to die for him?

Besides, Ningci is also his nephew. With this relationship, no matter he is a younger brother or a nephew, the elders of the clan would not dare to insult him lightly.

"Minister Xuan, how should we act specifically?"

"You first unify the opinions of the family, act decisively, and don't let them leak the news, so that Konoha's senior officials and others have time to prepare."

"Then take your confidants to the Hokage Building to express your new attitude to the Hokage, then follow the Hokage and the others to the police department, and finally act based on my look."

"Why are you going to the police department?" Hizu asked with confusion on his face.

Hizashi is also confused, what kind of medicine is sold in this gourd?

"The Kumogakure ninja leader broke into private houses and abducted children. He has seriously violated Konoha's law and order."

"Although the person is dead, the matter cannot be forgotten."

"The leader of the Kumogakure ninja cannot go to jail, but the records that should be made and the fines that should be paid must not be less. Others should take his place." Uchiha Gen said with a smile.

"ah?"

The two brothers instantly became stunned, dumbfounded, chicken...

No, you're going to hit your foreign friends hard, right?

If you break the law, you still have to make a record and pay a fine even if you die?

This is really well done... great!

"Isn't this a bit too deceptive?"

"Write a record, fine you some money, and don't ask them to go to jail instead. How can it be too much to bully someone?"

"Foreign friends who break the law are guilty of the same crime as the common people!"

After saying that, Uchiha Gen took the tea and drank it in one gulp, then stood up and left under the amazed eyes of the two brothers.
