Konoha: Start by unlocking the caged bird

Chapter 3 Uchiha Izumi and Hinata

Quan walked briskly, with a gentle smile on her small face. The teardrop mole under her left eye added a touch of charm to her already regular and beautiful facial features. Even though she was still a little kid who had not grown up, it could be seen that she was a real beauty.

She trotted to Hinata Yuzuru's side, panting: "Long time no see!"

"Well, long time no see." Hinata Yuzuru showed a gentle and easy-going smile. Wearing glasses, he looked more mature than children of the same age, more elegant and gentle. Combined with his handsome features and warm smile, he seemed even more approachable.

Quan was attracted by his dazzling smile. For a moment, he forgot to reply except for breathing heavily. It was not until he reached out and gently pushed his forehead with a helpless look that he woke up from his dream: "Ah, right!"

She blushed, stood up straight, put her hands together in front of her, drove properly, and then bowed sharply: "Thank you for taking me home last time."

"It's just that you broke your leg. You can go back even without me." Hinata Yuzuru looked at her exaggerated bow, almost losing her balance, and tried not to laugh.

Quan raised his head and said seriously on his small face: "But my legs really hurt."

The little girl said with a serious face that her leg was really painful when she fell. To Hinata Yuzuru, it was a bit cute and a bit funny. He could only smile and shake his head.

"It doesn't hurt now, does it?" he said.

"Well! Izumi will become a ninja in the future, these minor injuries are nothing!" She held her head high.

"So, does it really hurt?"

"Yeah! It really hurts!"

Hinata Yuzuru couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.

Quan didn't quite understand, but he also knew that he had made a fool of himself. He lowered his head and stepped on his toes: "It's true."

"I know. I'm sorry." Hinata Yuzuru paused after he finished speaking, and then said, "Hasn't your mother told you not to run around recently? You should listen to your mother obediently recently."

"Mom and Dad are out on a mission, and Auntie said I just have to be home before dinner time!"

Quan looked very righteous, and it seemed that she didn't understand what it meant for her parents to go out on a mission in this situation.

Although Hyuga Yuzuru had a vague impression of her in his mind, he only knew that the little girl in front of him would probably become a member of the Uchiha clan in the future, and would also become Uchiha Itachi's first love.

He didn't know anything about her parents, and he wasn't a know-it-all about Hokage.

After a moment of silence, he still didn't say anything, just smiled gently: "Is that so? Then you can't run around everywhere recently. There are a lot of bad guys outside. When your parents come back, the bad guys should be beaten away. Then you can go out and play."

"If there are bad guys..." Quan suddenly became shy. She glanced at him and whispered, "Will you protect me?"

Hinata Yuzuru really couldn't figure out the train of thought of a four-year-old girl. In comparison, Itachi, a relatively precocious kid, was more to his liking, but he still said gently, "Yeah."

Quan's face suddenly turned red. She coquettishly licked her fingers and stared at her beautiful little skirt: "So, um, thank you!"

"Ah?" Hinata Yuzuru asked, isn't this just an assumption? Why are you acting like I've saved you from the bad guys?
Quan quickened his pace: "Anyway, anyway, that's it. I'm going to buy soy sauce for my aunt. When Yuzuru comes out next time, can you take me with you to play?"

"My home is around the corner from the convenience store. Go inside. It's on the third floor, door number two."

“Spare key to the house”

Hinata Yuzuru put his hand in front of her face, signaling her to stop talking.

"I know, third floor, door number two."

Quan smelled a faint scent of incense on his hand.

"Yeah." She blushed and stopped talking.

"Soy sauce?" Hinata Yuzuru reminded.

Quan then woke up as if from a dream: "Ah, I'm going to buy soy sauce, um, thank you!"

I watched her jog along and disappear around the corner like the wind.

Hinata Yuzuru didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Does this mean that I have cut off the itachi's beard?
Facing the little girl's ignorant love, he could only shake his head and feel sorry for her. It probably wouldn't be long before her parents told her the sad fact that people from the Hyuga family would only marry within the Hyuga family. By then she You probably understand that some likes are destined to end in vain.

In order to ensure the purity of their bloodline and to protect their Byakugan, the Hyuga family always chooses their marriage partners within the family.

Not to mention, she has Uchiha blood in her.

Hinata married an Uchiha? Just thinking about it, the third-generation old man who could be stimulated had a heart attack, Danzo turned on mad dog mode, and a group of Konoha elders wrote eighteen letters of advice to get married overnight.

Looking up, the First Hokage on Hokage Rock was looking at the village with a smile.

Is this the Konoha you want? Senju Hashirama?

But no matter what I want to do, the most urgent thing is to go back and study the sealing technique.

If you can't even clean your own room, how can you clean the world? If you can't even deal with the caged bird on your head, it's all nonsense to think about it.

Hinata Yuzuru quickened his pace and returned to the house, but paused before entering the door. He stood aside politely, lowered his head, and waited respectfully.

A few teenagers who were older than him just rolled their eyes at the blue lines on his forehead, then walked into the door with their heads held high, nonchalantly.

"Master Yuzuru."

The guards on duty at the gate were naturally ninjas from the Hyuga clan, and those responsible for guarding the house were naturally the most loyal and trustworthy "good dogs". Therefore, they were all ninjas from the branch clan.

Hinata Yuzuru raised his head with a smile, looked at several ninjas who were separated from the family with complicated eyes, and just said softly: "Thank you for your hard work, there have been a lot less ninjas rotating in the family recently, right?"

"Yeah, we used to work in three shifts, but now sometimes we can't even change shifts once a day." A straight-talking middle-aged ninja was aroused with resentment.

The other Hyuga ninja glared at him, then smiled and said, "Master Yuzuru, it's okay. It's times like this that we should work hard to serve our family."

Hinata Yuzuru seemed to be thinking about something, but his expression did not change. He just continued to smile gently: "Ah, so that's it. I understand."

He turned and entered the house. The Hyuga family's luxury was visible everywhere, with those tall walls and beautiful bricks and tiles that blocked out the sun.

If Hinata Yuzuru were to give an evaluation, it would be like a big bird cage.

In name, the residential areas of the main family and the branch family are almost the same size. After all, they have to consider the face of the family.

But the boundaries are clear. Once you step through the door leading to the backyard of the branch family, you don't have to worry about frequent encounters with people from the main family.

When he met a familiar maid, Hinata Yuzuru stopped and said, "Sister Lizi, can I ask you a favor?"

Hinata Riko stopped and said respectfully, "Master Yuzuru, please speak."

As they have no talent for ninja, but are equipped with the Byakugan, which has "extremely high tactical value", they can only become maids and serve the family.

If you are lucky, you may become the wife of an outstanding ninja in the clan. If you are not lucky, you may get together with some Hyuga men who also have no talent for training, hoping to have a child who can become a ninja and change your destiny.

Therefore, even Yuzuru, who is the son of the head of the branch family, is as tall as a mountain to them.

"Don't be so nervous. How are the meals for the tribesmen who have been on duty and guarding these days?"

He asked with a smile.

Li Zi naturally told him everything she knew: "Basically, the shift change time is not at mealtime, so they probably make do with Bingliang Pills during normal times."

"Since we are on duty at home, how can we not even have a hot meal? Others don't care, we should also consider ourselves." Hinata Yuzuru said seemingly carelessly, and then said: "Let the kitchen prepare more food Well, even if the manpower is insufficient, the time for a meal can always be replaced."

"The weather is hot, so you can regularly replace their kettles with fresh well water, or prepare some cool drinks."

"how have you been?"

Li Zi remembered the first words clearly, but the second greeting made her a little overwhelmed.

"me?"

"Well, didn't Sister Li cut her hand a while ago? Did you go to the hospital?"

"Ah! It's just a minor injury! Master Yuzuru, don't worry about me!"

As an eighteen-year-old girl, Lizi never thought that she would be cared about by a four-year-old child.

Hinata Yuzuru smiled softly: "It wouldn't look good if a scar was left. Mom has some very good ointment. I'll get some for you."

"No need, there's already a scar, it won't be a problem!" Li Zi refused again and again.

But Hinata Yuzuru just waved at her and walked to the backyard.

She stood there blankly, feeling complicated but warm for a moment. It was hard to imagine that an adult felt so honored and moved by a few words from a child.

"Master Yuzuru is such a good man."

"If he is from the Zong family."

She thought, if Hyuga Yuzuru was a member of the Zong family, maybe the people in the separated family would have a better life, right?

Thinking of this, I can't help but feel even more sorry and sad for Hinata Yuzuru. Such a gentle and talented genius was labeled as a caged bird just because he was the son of Lord Hizashi.

You know, the caged bird mark is not just a layer of restraint. In order to maintain the curse seal, the caged bird will also extract the recipient's chakra at all times, especially the ability to affect the white eye.

Not only that, once he becomes a member of the branch family, it means that the physical skills that can greatly improve the Byakugan's combat capabilities, such as Kaitian and Bagua Sixty-Four Palms, are no longer available.

These physical skills and ninjutsu are all passed down orally in the main family, and the branch family is not qualified to learn them.

It is conceivable how sad this is for a genius - even if his talent is much better than that of the people from the main family, due to the inequality of resources and knowledge, he will be suppressed by those people from the main family and gradually become a mediocre person.

Li Zi sighed and stopped thinking about it.

Her situation is even worse than that of other members of the branch family. Even though it is a little hard to accept, what can be done?

The caged bird is also on her forehead!
Hinata Yuzuru returned to his room, first asked his mother for some ointment, and asked another maid to deliver it to Li Zi. He chatted with his mother briefly, and his mother, who had always been a little weak, felt sleepy and wanted to rest. He looked at Neji and went back to his room.

After randomly finding a piece of paper, he held his breath and stretched out his fingers.

"Set a small goal first."

"At all costs, try to fill up the experience value of the finger-engraved seal first!"

Then, break through the limit and see if your own system can make the simple and useless finger-carved seal break through the limit and be reborn!
