Konoha: Start by unlocking the caged bird

Chapter 98 Uzumaki Naruto (1.5W)

"I'm so stupid! Really!"

“I just know that Konoha will not be defenseless against us and will be on high alert;

But I didn't consider that the Hyuga clan was so alert and well prepared. I didn't think that I couldn't even steal a child. Once my teammates instigated me, I took the bait and came here obediently.

I am very good at taking advice and I listen to every word my teammates say;
My teammates asked me to come, so I came. Children were stolen and people slipped out.

I called for support, but there was no response. They said that there would be people ready outside the Hyuga clan to pick me up, and we would leave Konoha together after I brought the child out. But when I looked left and right, there was no one there. I became anxious and quickened my pace to retreat first.

Before he even stepped out of the street, the little girl in his arms turned into a ball of smoke.

My teammates haven’t shown up yet, and I know, no, I’ve been trapped.

When I was caught and interrogated by your Anbu, I knew it was a setup by my teammates. There was no coordination at all, and I was just an innocent victim!"

Seeing the mustache in front of him crying and narrating his tragic experience, he swallowed a pill as he spoke, and was secretly panicking - what's going on, where are your teammates, please help!

The Anbu looked at each other.

This was the first time they had seen a ninja selling one of their own so quickly, let alone the person in front of them, who was nominally the representative of the Kumogakure mission.

"You guys let me go. I'm a well-known star of tomorrow in Kumogakure. I'm the third special jounin in Kumogakure's history to be promoted in an exceptional manner. With me here, you can sign a contract at will, and I'm strong. Other teammates won't." Those who have opinions.”

He continued to talk nonchalantly, with snot and tears streaming down his face. Hyuga Yuzuru was wearing a mask, standing in front of him, with Kakashi on his left and Shisui on his right, and behind him stood a dozen elite Anbu, with murderous intent. However, even if a group of ANBU hadn't opened their mouth to interrogate anything, he wanted to take one first and let his elder brothers and sisters-in-law give him a way out.

"If you are really as powerful as you say, how could you be caught?"

Some Anbu members were disdainful of his spineless behavior and coldly exposed his boasting. Even now, who doesn't know that the man in front of them is just an embroidered pillow, a scapegoat deliberately found by the Hidden Cloud Village!
Even his teammates gave up on him mercilessly. When they realized that something unexpected might happen, they even refused the Byakugan that they might have gotten and sold it all out to him. It is conceivable that his so-called exceptional promotion to 'Special Jonin' might have been deliberately prepared by the Hidden Cloud Village for this peace talk.

He couldn't help but feel a little relieved - fortunately Hinata Yuzuru had warned them in advance, so the others didn't take action in advance. If they really mistook him for an elite member of the Hidden Cloud Village and intercepted him, he might have died with just a little force!

"I," the envoy of the delegation said, blushing, "I was careless and didn't dodge."

Covering his leg, Messenger Yun looked at Hinata Yuzuru with a faintly frightened expression. Just now, there was just a flash of blue light. He didn't even know what hit his own leg, and it was directly fractured. There was no trace of it. The power to fight back.

The Kumogakure envoy lowered his head and muttered something like 'How can Konoha smear someone's innocence out of thin air', 'Being defeated by a surprise attack does not count as a loss', 'A man who knows the times is a hero', and the air was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

So what else is there to say?

Carrying this 'representative' of Yunyin, he went straight to the hotel where Yunyin was resting.

The ninjas of the Cloud Village delegation were very impatient. They were awakened in the middle of the night and woke up with sleepy eyes. When they saw that their leading ninja had been captured alive, they all had expressions of surprise and confusion on their faces.

Kumogakure, who was judged by Hyuga Yuzuru to be the real leading ninja, took a step forward, made a shocked expression and asked: "What's going on? Em, why were you caught?"

The one called Em is naturally this mustached ninja.

Em looked up at his teammates, who were hopping on one short leg, their arms bound by ninjutsu chains used by the Anbu, crying: "What's going on! Ji, you betrayed your companions, you will not die well, I'm going to find the Fourth Generation"

Before he finished speaking, the ninja named Ji snorted: "Shut up! Do you really think we don't know who you are!?"

The ninja named Ji waved his hand with a cold face and drew a clear line: "This person is a spy lurking in Kumogakure. No matter what he did, it has nothing to do with Kumogakure! In fact, we told him before we set off With clear evidence, I just suspected that he was a spy of Konoha, so I kept it secret and wanted to see if Konoha wanted to use him for something."

"Please inform the Sandaime Hokage that I am the true representative of the Kumogakure delegation. The official documents are in the room, and the information about this traitorous spy is also among them. If Konoha needs it, we can share it all with the Konoha side."

"But please give this spy to us first to prevent him from leaking Kumogakure's confidential information."

As he said that, the ninja named Ji wanted to reach out and take Em, who was in an extremely miserable state at the moment.

As the commander of the ANBU at the moment, Hinata Yuzuru just took a step forward, stretched out her hand, and pinched his wrist.

"What! Does Konoha want to fight the delegation?!" Ji shouted angrily, but Hinata Yuzuru did not move at all.

What a powerful force! Such precise soft fist chakra!
Ji was extremely shocked.

As a Cloud Ninja who is proficient in Ninjutsu, he is a Ninjutsu-type ninja with very high physical strength. However, the boy in front of him, who according to the information is less than half his age, is not inferior to him in strength at first glance.

At this moment, the soft fist chakra was flowing in and out and piercing his wrist, causing one of his hands to go numb. He immediately lost his strength and subconsciously retracted it.

Monster huh!?

Hinata Yuzuru loosened his grip and estimated his strength.

"Whether he is a spy or not, we in Konoha Anbu have our own methods of torture. Don't worry, even if he is dead, we can still find a way to read his mind."

"It's the Cloud Hidden Sect instead."

Hyuga Yuzuru raised his head and stared at his opponent without giving in, with an imposing manner: "Do you really mean to negotiate?"

"If you are here just to look down on me, the Hyuga clan, and to humiliate Konoha, do you really think that we Konoha ninjas have no blood!?"

"Today, if Kumogakure's side does not give an explanation, I will protest to the Hokage on behalf of the Hyuga clan and refuse peace talks!"

"Even if we have to join forces with Iwagakure, we must make Kumogakure pay the price!"

Although Em is arrogant and arrogant, he is not a complete fool. Until now, how can he still not know that he has become a pawn of Yunyin, and his teammates want him back just to silence him!
Now it seems that death is the only way out.
"My ancestors for three generations have all been Cloud Hidden!"

"I shed blood for Kumogakure!"

"I have risked my life for Kumogakure!"

"You are unkind, and I am unjust!"

"I"

Before Em could finish his words, he suddenly felt something strange in his body.

He was in a trance and felt that the world in front of him was spinning.

毒.
I have been poisoned?

He wanted to ask for help, and Hyuga Yuzuru had even reached out and used the Palm Immortal Technique to press on him, but the Kumogakure side was well prepared, and the poison was carefully prepared, so how could he be allowed to survive! ?
When is it! ?

Only then did Em recall the secret medicine he subconsciously swallowed after being captured by the Anbu - it was said that this was a special medicine secretly prepared by the medical ninjas of the Hidden Cloud Village. Once taken, injuries would recover quickly, and the chakra and physical fitness would be greatly enhanced.

They started designing me before leaving the village! ?

What the hell am I doing?!
Hey!
With his eyes open, he kicked his legs and died.

The ninjas of Kumogakure all breathed a sigh of relief.

Ji Geng stared at his corpse with cold eyes and disgust.

The medicine given to him does indeed have an explosive effect. A chuunin who takes the forbidden medicine can explode to the level of a jounin in a short time, but it is very toxic. The stronger the explosive power, the more likely he will die. quick.

It is a special product after failed research.

Originally, I thought that once Em was discovered, he would take the banned drugs, explode for a while, fight, and then die directly. Then, my group would insist that he was a spy and would never involve Yunyin.

But I didn't expect that Em really had no backbone and no blood at all. After taking the medicine, he didn't even dare to take action. Instead, he surrendered and let the poison delay until now to break out.

Hinata Yuzuru withdrew his hand with a calm expression.

"Leave it to Ibiki-senpai from the torture department."

"Kumogakure should also know that in Konoha, we have a secret technique that can probe the brain. Even if someone is dead, we can dig out the truth."

"You can continue to quibble."

Hinata Yuzuru also implied that Em was a member of the Hidden Cloud Village.

Ji was unwilling to admit it, and the two sides argued for a while before the Third Hokage and his group of elders arrived late.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

The Sandai acted confused, and Hinata Yuzuru pretended to explain it.

Immediately, the Third Hokage's eyes widened with anger, his aura rising continuously, for the first time showing the courage that a Hokage should have. With his rampant chakra, the pressure even made those Cloud Hidden Clan members subconsciously prepare for battle.

"Too deceiving!"

The Third Generation angrily scolded Kumogakure: "Have you ever owed anything to me since you came to Konoha? You came in the name of peace talks, but in private you took action against me, the Hyuga clan of Konoha. What an arrogant ambition!"

"If you don't want to negotiate, get out now! Do you really think Konoha doesn't even dare to fight now?"

"If you can't give me an explanation, we will start a war starting tomorrow!"

The third generation looked really angry.

Ji was in a panic, gritting his teeth, glaring at Em's body for a few times, and could only quickly slow down his attitude, saying all the time: A traitor cannot represent the attitude of our Yunyin, we don't want such a mistake to happen, calm down, let's talk, peace talk, we must peace talk!

While chatting, a group of people entered the Hokage's office.

The dead ninja named Em was not wasted - what Hinata Yuzuru said was true, Konoha could really read the consciousness of the dead to obtain information.

Even though this Em seemed to be a waste in Kumogakure, he could still read some information out of him, more or less.

It's waste utilization.

As the 'representative of the victims', Hyuga Yuzuru also officially sat at the negotiating table and negotiated with Kumogakure together with Konoha F4.

Long before this meeting started, Konoha's side had set the tone. They couldn't delay it any longer, so they grabbed this stick and beat him to death.

The Cloud Village side repeatedly expressed their desire to think about it and delay the talks, but Konoha insisted that if they couldn't come to an end today, they would not be allowed to leave, and if they left, it meant they didn't want to talk anymore.

Under the circumstances, Ji could only be patient and let go of Yunyin's bottom line little by little.

"Let's put it this way. If you want to negotiate, you don't need the compensation, but you must give part of the mission quota to Yunyin!"

"Impossible, tasks within the Fire Country will never be entrusted to Kumogakure."

"Don't go too far. Even if what happened to Em happened, we feel guilty, but we can't let Kumogakure take all the responsibility just because of the mistakes made by a traitor, right?"

"If you can't manage your own people, what does that have to do with Konoha? If you say he's a traitor, does that mean he's a traitor?"

"Then what do you want to do?"

"Pay compensation, Kumogakure must pay compensation! From now on, the tasks of Tang Country will be split 30% and 70%!"

"Shall we take 70%?"

"Seventy percent is ours!"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

The offense and defense reversed, and Konoha began to ask for an exorbitant price.

They talked from midnight, banging the table and shouting until noon. Finally, after hearing a word from Hinata Yuzuru, the Kumogakure side pinched their noses, swallowed their tears, and signed the peace treaty.

"The one your people want to take away is Hyuga Hinata! She is my beloved, my blood-related sister!"

Add money!!
"Both parties signed a peace treaty. Each country's mission targets will depend on their abilities, but no direct combat conflicts will occur."

"Kumogakure makes a solemn apology for the theft of the Hyuga clan, and will strictly investigate the origin of the murderer, find out the mastermind behind the spy, and compensate three million taels."

"Re-plan the cordon lines and border activity lines on both sides."

"But Konoha must not sign a peace treaty with the Iwagakure Village."

These are the conditions, okay?

That's great!

Originally, Kumogakure was so aggressive that he had to force Konoha to drop a piece of meat, but now, in a sense, Konoha got a lot of benefits, not counting three million taels, this small amount of money was just a formality. The main thing is that the mission indicators of Tang Zhiguo can be retained, and it will be a continuous blood-forming machine.

The biggest benefit of the ninja village comes from various task indicators, but the tasks in each country and each place are limited, and they are not refreshed evenly like in the game. If you eat more, others will eat less.

The reputation that Konoha has accumulated since the first generation often gives them a considerable advantage when competing for missions. Given the same choice, most people would choose Konoha's ninjas to complete their missions.

It is said that everyone shares the mission indicators of Yunokuni according to their abilities, but in fact, Konoha eats more.

As for the only one, the inability to sign a peace treaty with the Iwagakure Village, it was even more expected.

If you don't sign, then sign. We didn't fight too hard in the first place. Let's have a tacit understanding, give Iwagakure some space and benefits, and give him some face. On the surface, we didn't sign a peace treaty, but in fact, didn't we just acquiesce in the truce?
But it cannot be said that Yunyin was at a loss.

Their strategic goal has been achieved. They have reached a contract with Konoha and prevented Konoha from forming an alliance with Iwagakure. They can now draw on their forces to launch a full-scale attack on Iwagakure.

Three million taels is just a sprinkling of water.

As for the warning line and the border activity line, it doesn't matter. As long as everyone doesn't want to fight, just bypass them. There are many small countries and ninja villages in between, so there is no territorial dispute.

The indicators of the Kingdom of Yu are a bit painful, but now Kumogakure has decided to attack fiercely. There are not many ninjas who can go to the Kingdom of Yu to perform tasks. Just let them go, and come back to grab them later if you want.

However, there is no doubt that Kumogakure failed in the war without gunpowder during the peace talks. They could have taken a big bite out of Konoha's flesh and blood, but in the end, it became a painless one for everyone, and they failed to obtain the vested interests. For the Kumogakure side, especially the Kumogakure delegation, it was a big failure.

Hinata Yuzuru watched and personally monitored the group of Kumogakure leaving Konoha, and he felt extremely happy when he saw them all looking depressed and angry.

After returning to the village, these people will definitely resign and bear the blame for this unfavorable negotiation for a long time.

But after a brief period of happiness, Hyuga Yuzuru felt more and more urgent about the current situation - a weak country has no diplomacy, this is an ancient and modern truth.

How long will the battle between Kumogakure and Iwagakure last?
Judging from Hinata Yuzuru's observations based on the original work and various forms, it is probably going to be quite long. At least, it is very likely that he will not stop until he grows up.

However, the danger to Konoha is not limited to Kumogakure and Iwagakure.
The Sand Village and the Mist Village should not be underestimated either.

Needless to say, in Sunagakure Village, the poor neighbors are jealous when they look at Konoha. Who is willing to eat sand in the desert as long as there is a chance?
The threat to Kirigakure mainly comes from Obito Uchiha - if nothing else, the Mizukage is still under the control of Obito Uchiha.

Hinata Yuzuru knows very well that with Obito's hatred for Konoha, he will never let Konoha easily get through this development period. It is basically difficult for the Uchiha clan to die in self-annihilation as they originally did. Obito will most likely have to change his tactics and make things difficult for Konoha.

Either he was the only one who wanted to come to Konoha to cause trouble, or else he had to manipulate Kirigakure into doing something.

It is very likely that the matter of Kumogakure and Iwagakure will change due to Hinata Yuzuru's butterfly effect.

call.
Hinata Yuzuru narrowed his eyes and once again felt that time was not waiting for me.

He returned to Konoha's office to report on the mission again. Even though Hinata Yuzuru's mission was over, he lost his temporary command of the Anbu and became an mediocre Anbu captain again.

At this time, in the office of Konoha, Danzo, Utane Koharu, Mito Kado En and the Sandai gathered together. The Konoha F4 all looked at Hinata Yuzuru with complicated eyes, and each had their own ideas.

"Yuzuru, you have made a great contribution this time!"

The Sandaime's face was filled with smiles. Even though he was more afraid of Hinata Yuzuru because of his performance, he was willing to praise him sincerely, "This time, your contribution to Konoha cannot be ignored by anyone."

"What reward do you want?" He smiled, as if you were talking casually.

Hinata Yuzuru took off his mask, and his short hair made him look not only gentle as usual, but also more energetic and sharp than a young man.

"How about the Sealed Book?" he smiled.

The Sandai's expression changed slightly, and his smile became awkward: "Do you want to learn some forbidden technique?"

"I just want to take a look at them all. I don't have to learn them all. Just watching them once will do." Hinata Yuzuru grinned, looking very sunny: "I am very interested in all ninjutsu."

The Third Hokage remained silent, so Danzo snorted at the right time: "The Book of Sealing is one of the foundations of Konoha, and both Ninjutsu and Forbidden Jutsu are extremely difficult to practice. You are still too young and not suitable for it."

The third generation then said leisurely: "Or, just choose a few."

"Third Hokage, we can't force things." Danzo said with a stern face and a fair look.

Hinata Yuzuru just curled the corners of his mouth.

Seeing him like this, the Sandaime always felt like he was being watched. He coughed twice and knocked on the table: "Record an S-level mission, Yuzuru. As long as you can accumulate five S-level mission records, I will open the Sealed Book to you. After reading it, you can copy one to study on your own."

"Now, you've accumulated two."

The bloody battle he had with Shisui three generations ago was also recorded as an S-class mission.

Hyuga Yui was noncommittal and said oh, still just looking at the third generation with a smile without saying a word.

Mito Kadenen also knew that this was too deceptive, so he smoothed things over and said: "Sandaime, I think that if promoted to public office, Yuzuru is too young to convince the public. Financial rewards, as the Hyuga clan has a big business, there may not be a shortage of them. The Sealed Book is of great importance and cannot be rushed. However, from the perspective of the Hyuga clan, there is no room for reward."

"The Hyuga clan is located in the center of the village. Although the location is good, the area is still a bit small. Recently, I heard that the Hyuga clan has been constantly building new buildings in the clan and changing the layout. Why not start from here and reward them."

As soon as these words came out, the third generation felt a little sad. The Hyuga clan already lived in a decent place. If it were expanded, it would be like building a grand view garden in the business district. It would be better to give them millions of taels in one go. An S-level mission would usually be It's just a reward of just over one million taels.

But
I have such a mouth.

Sandai regretted letting Hinata Yuzuru ask for what he wanted. This kid wasn't like this before! ?
This is a different time. In the past, we had to pretend to be good children, but now that the Kumogakure Peace Treaty has been signed, as long as this momentum is over, Konoha will certainly no longer allow the Hyuga and Uchiha clans to be close. Suppression is inevitable. Sooner or later, they will have a falling out. What's the point of pretending?

"Okay, then let's follow Elder Mito's advice." After the Sandai finished speaking, he looked at Danzo who seemed to want to say something, waved his hand, and made up his mind.

Of course, Danzo was not willing to let Yuzuru Hinata get so many benefits. He wished that Yuzuru Hinata couldn't even get it, but the third generation didn't want that.

Be it suppression or targeting, it's all Danzo's job!

It's none of Sarutobi's business.

Hinata Yuzuru appreciated the friendly signal sent by the Third Hokage and nodded with a smile, saying, "Thank you, Third Hokage, and thank you, Elder Mito."

Danzo and Utane Koharu had gloomy faces and remained silent.

Especially Danzo, he was really tired of seeing the fairness of the good old man like the third generation, but he got used to it. If he doesn't even have this effect, what else can the third generation keep him for?

The third generation picked up the map, pondered for a while, circled the edge of the Hyuga clan's residence, and put down the pen with a bit of a toothache: "The specific scope and the title deed will be calculated by someone, but roughly, this is it."

Hinata Yuzuru smiled sincerely and was very satisfied: "Thank you, Sandaime!"

At least one-fifth of the land was increased, which was a considerable amount of space, equivalent to the size of a large training ground. The Uchiha clan was driven to the edge of Konoha, and the 'compensation' given was nothing more than the space of a large training ground.

Sandai sighed quietly and looked at the map, but his heart was a little complicated.

There are fewer people in Konoha.

The Nine-Tails Rebellion and the Three Wars reduced Konoha's population by a lot. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so much vacant land for the Hyuga.

I hope we can recover in the next ten years.

He sighed.

Hinata Yuzuru was fine, and after being praised a few times by the third generation, he left wisely.

In the office, only Konoha F4 was left.

The third generation sat on the chair and looked around with a calm expression: "What else do you want?"

"Sandaime, are you too trusting of Hinata Yuzuru?"

It was Danzo who spoke first and became the bad guy.

Danzo stared at the Sandaime with deep eyes: "Don't forget, he personally overthrew the Hyuga clan. It shows that this kid has no concept of so-called loyalty."

Sandai picked up his pipe and said slowly: "Didn't you seek out Yuzuru just to amplify his thoughts?

You and I both know about the caged bird thing. Although Hyuga Yuzuru's move is against morality, it is not incomprehensible. He is a genius, how can he want to live in depression for a long time? Both sides are at fault, no matter who wins or loses, or who is in charge of Hyuga, it is neither justice nor injustice.

As long as he is still loyal to Konoha and the Hyuga clan is still willing to dedicate themselves to Konoha, it is enough.

Where does absolute loyalty come from?

If I were expecting something that didn't exist at all, maybe I would have died long ago, wouldn't I? "

Having said that, the Sandaime smiled playfully and looked at Danzo.

Danzo has a slightly guilty conscience, so how can he talk about loyalty, belief, benevolence, justice and morality?

But he still said: "Okay, let's assume that Hinata Yuzuru is trustworthy and a pillar of society.

But what about the Uchiha clan?

If one day, the Uchiha clan wants to do something, will the Hyuga clan stand on the side of the village, or...”

These words hit the pain point.

The third generation was smoking cigarettes.

Mito Kado and Koharu were silent for a moment, but Koharu said coldly: "Why don't we send them out and let the younger generations like Uchiha Shisui and Hinata Yuzuru go out to do tasks.

If you are alive, you are still alive. If you are dead, it can only be said that you are not lucky enough. We need blood now, and we also need to use more mission rewards to fill the vacancy.

The core members of these younger generations are not in the village. Even if they want to do something, they have to wait for the opportunity. "

Danzo said disdainfully: "It's just a woman's kindness. This is just delaying the time when the conflict breaks out."

"Then tell me." Koharu turned to bed and glared at Danzo.

Danzo narrowed one eye and said, "It's better to strike first! We can find the flaws from within them. Just like within the Uchiha clan, there must be people who lean towards Konoha, such as Shisui, or others. As long as we control them, we can get the information inside the Uchiha clan first.

The Hyuga clan. Now that there is no main family or branch family, it is also appropriate to find a few people who are not convinced by Hyuga Yuzuru and Hyuga Hizashi and absorb them into the root. The Hyuga clan, they are not all monolithic, right?

As long as we can get a few nails in and know their movements first, it's better than being in the dark and not knowing what they want to do. "

The Sandai didn't comment, but just said faintly: "I don't think this is a good idea. Yuzuru is a smart kid, and he hates the Roots. Don't make things worse."

Danzo thought about it, that's right, he didn't mean to brainwash people as soon as they met, Hyuga Yuzuru was very wary of him and didn't like him, how could he let his family members join the Root? If they were in the Anbu, it would be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth, working for the Third Generation in vain.

Finally, he raised his eyebrows and thought of the key point: "Hinata Yuzuru, isn't he the captain of the Anbu now? His subordinate, Yakushi Nono, came from my Root."

"Okay, stop talking. I believe in Yuzuru, and I also believe that if there is a problem, Yakushi Nonou will come to me and report the situation." Sandai waved his hand and said that he would not talk about it anymore, but Danzo sneered. .

What you mean is that you want me to talk to someone in private and ask her to tip you off, right?
Danzo knew that what he did was once again "tacitly accepted", so he said no more and looked out the window calmly.

In my heart, I was filled with murderous intent.

Can't wait any longer.

He had never seen a genius like Hyuga Yuzuru in his life.

If you put it aside for a few more years.

The climate has become such that there will be no chance.

But he felt a little guilty - so many elite ninjas from the Root couldn't even kill Kakashi.

Is Hinata Yuzuru that easy to kill?
Continuous failures made Danzo realize a tragic fact: his roots were really not strong enough.

Only Yamato can be considered a promising person in the future, but now he has run away to the Anbu.

But Danzo calmed down and planned carefully. Countless plans that he had executed before emerged in his mind, and finally he made a decision.

Hinata Yuzuru is doomed to be killed, even the Third Hokage can't stop him!
If you can’t do it yourself, seek external help!

Even if you fail, you can distance yourself.

So, where does foreign aid come from?
Danzo thought of his many classic success stories, and after careful consideration, he decided to give Hinata Yuzuru the highest attention, do everything possible, intensify the efforts, plan carefully, and ensure that nothing could go wrong.

He was never so serious when he killed three generations.

As long as he kills Hinata Yuzuru, and then finds a way to use his death to frame the blame, maybe some of the Uchiha fools will be taken advantage of by him, and then he uses his clever brain to think of ideas, and maybe he can Peach killed three people, Hinata, Uchiha, and the third generation, all got it together.

Until then, who else would the Fifth Hokage be than me!

what!
Haha!

Seeing Danzo's expression gradually becoming 'peaceful', Sandai knew that this bitch was probably thinking of something again, but he stopped his thoughts in time and did not make detailed guesses.

No matter what happened, I don't know anything, I don't know.

He just warned: "Danzo, you have failed me many times. Don't let me down again."

"Of course, Sandaime." Danzo laughed darkly.

Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu looked at each other, both of them were in the dark - they really didn't know anything. They usually made some suggestions, which were rejected. Then the Third Hokage or Danzo would make suggestions. If they thought they were good, they would agree. If they didn't think they were good, they would reject them and let them think about it again.

so.
The two of them looked at Danzo indifferently, as if to say, "I know what you are thinking," and cooperated with the Third Hokage to put pressure on him.

F4 separated again, some should retire, some should work.

The news of the successful peace talks between Konoha and Kumogakure was also informed to the entire village.

The news that the long-awaited peace treaty had finally been signed instantly plunged the village, which had been in a state of tension due to the peace talks, into an uproar.

It’s more lively than a festival.

Everyone who got the news rushed to tell the news. For a while, Konoha was full of voices talking about the success of the peace talks. Many people rushed in to various pubs and restaurants, even just after dinner time, and they were crowded. It was necessary to fill up the table, push cups and change cups, and celebrate this important event.

At first glance, peace talks seem to have nothing to do with ordinary people, but in fact, when the war broke out, life was very difficult for ordinary people in the village. Business was almost in a semi-blocked state, and prices remained high.

But with the war with Kumogakure over, many trade routes can be opened, external supplies will be easier to obtain, and prices will fall.

More importantly, everyone has had enough of the endless war. Although there is still Iwagakure, after all, the war with Konoha has maintained relative restraint, so in a sense, until this moment, Konoha has Finally entered a complete period of peace.

"It would be nice if Iwagakure could stop, too."

"Hey, when can we finally stop fighting?" "My dad told me that when the first generation was still around, life in Konoha was like this."

People were talking about it everywhere.

Hyuga Yuzuru was not in a hurry to go home. He wandered around the streets and alleys, but he was truly feeling the needs and feelings of the people of Konoha, and his understanding of this era became deeper and deeper.

Complete peace?
how can that be possible.

He watched all this silently, but suddenly he heard the sound of children playing.

"Hey! What's going on!" A little boy's voice sounded.

"Go away! Demon fox! It has nothing to do with you!"

"Don't come near me!"

"Is that a beard on your face? How disgusting!"

A group of children responded to the boy's words with disgusted voices.

Hinata Yuzuru turned his head and saw a somewhat dirty little boy with dazzling golden hair and six whisker-like things on his face, which was quite eye-catching and weird at first glance.

Uzumaki Naruto.

This was the first time Hinata Yuzuru saw the legendary child of destiny. He couldn't help but stop and look at him carefully. The pupils in his eyes changed color slightly, and a faint blue light flickered as he looked at his belly.

A huge, violent chakra that seemed like flame appeared before his eyes.

Hinata Yuzuru's Byakugan seemed to see through the seal and directly into the sealed space, looking directly at the Kyuubi in Uzumaki Naruto's belly.

In the dim prison cell, the huge fox opened its beastly eyes and stared at him ferociously - yes, Hinata Yuzuru was very sure that at this moment, the two of them were sizing each other up.

"These are the eyes I see for the first time." Kyuubi said lazily.

Hinata Yuzuru ignored it, just glanced at it, his eyes returned to normal, and his vision returned to reality.

What a terrifying power.

Nine Lamas.

Even though he had seen it during the Nine-Tails Rebellion, now, Hyuga Yuzuru's eye power was completely different from his own at that time, which also allowed him to feel the terrifying power of the Nine-Tails in more detail.

The seemingly endless fiery red high-quality chakra is simply unforgettable. It is essentially different from human chakra. It is of higher quality and even different in nature.

I really want to study it carefully.

"Hey, do you know what happened?" Uzumaki Naruto's voice rang out in front of him.

Seeing Naruto wearing a somewhat dirty half-sleeve and shorts, and not sure if he was playing with it or if he was beaten on the ground, Hinata Yuzuru just smiled and said, "It's very rude."

"Ha!?" Naruto never thought someone would treat him with such an answer.

Hinata Yuzuru repeated: "You don't even want to call me brother."

"Is that so? Then, White-eyed big brother, what happened in Konoha? Why do everyone seem so happy?"

Uzumaki Naruto was keenly aware that the big boy in front of him did not have the malice toward him as others did, and his tone was very gentle, so he unconsciously and somewhat righteously called him his brother.

Rather than saying that he is impolite, it is better to say that his carefree way of speaking is just a form of self-defense.

"I'm Hyuga Yuzuru." Hyuga Yuzuru squatted down and brushed off the dirt or something stuck on his clothes: "Did someone beat you up?"

"No! I just fell down!" Uzumaki Naruto scratched his neck.

Hinata Yuzuru laughed: "Then where did this footprint come from?"

"I, I..." He was at a loss for words. Hyuga Yuzuru did not press the issue, but simply said, "The people in the village are happy that Konoha and Kumogakure have signed a peace treaty. Both sides have decided not to fight for the time being."

"Oh." Uzumaki Naruto nodded, but then asked: "When you say temporarily, you mean, will Kumogakure and Konoha fight again? What does Kumogakure look like?"

"Maybe he will fight, maybe he won't. It depends on the specific situation. As for Kumogakure, his appearance is no different from ours. It's just that the people over there are generally darker, but that's not all the case."

Hinata Yuzuru was not annoyed by his tedious questions and just wanted to continue strolling on the street.

Uzumaki Naruto pursed his lips and followed him subconsciously - few people would talk to him so patiently, and few would smile so tenderly at him, let alone help him put on his clothes. The dirty stuff was dusted off.

Even if they dress neatly, many people feel that they are unclean and avoid themselves.

"I'm Uzumaki Naruto!" he introduced himself.

"Yeah, I know." Hinata Yuzuru said softly.

Uzumaki Naruto was stunned for a moment, then said: "Do you know me!?"

"Of course, the legendary fox demon reincarnation is an ominous symbol." Hinata Yuzuru said with a smile, looking at Uzumaki Naruto's depressed face, and added slowly: "But, I think you are no different from other children."

"Really!?" He raised his voice.

Hinata Yuzuru turned his head to look into his blue eyes and said with a smile, "Of course not."

"Ha!? What on earth do you mean by that?" Naruto stared at him angrily, but did not run away. He followed him and muttered, "Then why aren't you afraid of me?"

"Is there anything about you that I should be afraid of?" Hinata Yuzuru.

Uzumaki Naruto remained silent, and after a while he asked another question: "Brother Yuzuru, are you a ninja?"

Hinata Yuzuru hummed.

"Really? How old are you this year?" he kept asking.

"Eight years old."

"Ha!? Liar! The kid who hit me last time, his brother is already twelve years old, and he looks shorter than you!"

"He's really short then."

"Hahaha! I think so too! By the way, can one become a ninja at the age of eight?"

"Of course, even five years old can."

"I also want to be a ninja at the age of five!"

"Then you have to work harder. Running around all day won't make you stronger."

"Hmph, if I want to, I can become the strongest ninja in Konoha in three years!"

"Well, maybe that's true."

"I was just kidding. Brother Jiexian is so easy to fool. Hahaha."

Naruto seemed to have not chatted like this with someone for a long time. The more he chatted, the happier he became. He was jumping around Hinata Yuzuru like a little rabbit, asking one question after another, and one topic after another.

It seemed as if they would chat for the entire afternoon unless Hinata Yuzuru chased him away.

Until his stomach started to growl.

His face flushed: "I forgot to go home for lunch, so, let's just leave it at that for now!"

It was the first time that Uzumaki Naruto met such a person who was not much older than him, but was so gentle to him. He thought dullly in his heart that it would be great if he was really his brother, and both of his eyes were white. Yes, it's as strange as my beard, and it looks like it matches well.

At this time, my hungry stomach growled, I just felt embarrassed and didn't want to be looked down upon by him.

"Do you like ramen?"

Hinata Yuzuru asked.

"Ichiraku Ramen!?" Naruto was stunned.

Hinata Yuzuru hummed, and his mouth began to water - he wanted to eat!
He had only eaten at Ichiraku Ramen once, and that was one night when Sandai came to see him after get off work and took him there.

"Let's go. I'll treat you to some noodles. I'm a little hungry too. I haven't eaten for a day."

Hinata Yuzuru hasn't eaten or even drank water for almost fifteen or six hours since last night. Hearing the sound of his stomach, he was feeling a little hungry.

"I" Uzumaki Naruto looked embarrassed. He felt that this was the first time they met and his brother was so nice to him. If he followed him and gave him a good beating, he might even dislike him.

The third-generation grandfather never took him out to eat since he last watched him eat six bowls of noodles.

For a moment, he didn't know whether he should accept Hinata Yuzuru's kindness, and he had no idea that half of the reason why the Third Generation was so "busy" was due to Hinata Yuzuru's "activity".

Hinata Yuzuru sighed as he looked at his reserved appearance.

Of course, Naruto was not unable to afford food. In fact, there was someone watching over him and his meals were prepared for him every day.

But how could a child like him take care of himself?
Sometimes I forget to drink the milk in the refrigerator, or I leave it there even though it’s expired, and when I take it out to drink, it’s already expired.

Someone prepares bento boxes every day, but sometimes the bento boxes don’t taste good and you don’t want to eat them. If you want to eat them again when you’re hungry, they may become difficult to swallow.

The pocket money given is very little, as the third generation believes that it is not appropriate to give too much money to children.

The most important thing is that apart from providing him with food, clothing, housing and transportation, and having someone wash his clothes and clean his house regularly, no one will take care of his daily life.

This made his life a bit miserable every day. As a child, even if he had food and drink, how could he know how to take care of himself?
Third generation old man, you are the one who has accumulated virtues from your ancestors.

Hinata Yuzuru patted Uzumaki Naruto's head: "Hurry up, I'm hungry."

After saying that, regardless of Naruto not agreeing yet, he walked towards Ichiraku Ramen.

Naruto hesitated for a while, then quickly followed: "I can eat a lot! If you don't have money, forget it."

"I'm rich."

"How rich?"

"Enough for you to eat ramen for a lifetime."

"boast!"

"Haha~"

Uzumaki Naruto looked at Hinata Yuzuru's faint smile with a look of astonishment in his eyes. He had never thought that someone could be rich enough to eat Ichiraku Ramen for the rest of his life.

A bowl of ramen costs 90 taels!
When supplies were in short supply some time ago, when there were still hundreds of taels a bowl, his monthly pocket money was only 200 taels.

Great!

Amazing!
There were stars in his eyes.

"Hey, Yuzuru-chan, long time no see. And Naruto-chan? Did you two know each other?"

Uncle Shou Da is very busy at the moment. The news of the signing of the contract has indirectly helped his business. There are many people in the noodle shop at the moment.

When Uzumaki Naruto appeared, many people looked at him with disdain. When these looks moved to Hinata Yuzuru, they became slightly complicated.

At this time, Hyuga Yuzuru's reputation in Konoha had declined slightly, and many people criticized what he did to the main family, but because of this, they had a deep impression of his strength - if he was not strong enough, how could he have done such a thing?

Coupled with this incident, people subconsciously think that he is not a good-tempered person. There are even rumors that he is the reincarnation of a demon child. This is why he can overthrow the main family at this age. Because Hyuga Hizashi bears the responsibility of killing, he is rumored to have become the Hyuga God of Killing. This is the case of like father, like son.
Although these are just rumors, most people remain calm and wait and see.

But it has to be said that the existence of these chaotic public opinions is worthy of two words: outrageous.

But this actually helped Hinata Yuzuru at this moment. No one dared to make irresponsible remarks to him. There were even two ordinary people who immediately finished their noodles and soup and left to make room for him.

"Yeah, we just met not long ago." Hinata Yuzuru asked Naruto to sit on the inside to avoid being stared at like a monkey by a group of people. He then looked at the people around him with a smile on his face, making them involuntarily look away.

"What does Naruto like to eat?" Hinata Yuzuru looked up.

"I like them all!" Naruto smiled, looking like he didn't care about other people's eyes at all, he was used to it.

"Hand-beater uncle, two rounds of the variety on the menu."

Hinata Yuzuru's way of ordering food made Shouda a little amused, but he still responded with full energy: "Okay! It will be here soon!"

Naruto's eyes were filled with emotion and admiration. He looked up and couldn't help but say, "You're awesome, big brother."

"He's such an easy guy to conquer." Hinata Yuzuru smiled.

Naruto's eyes rolled, "If you treat me to dinner a few more times, I will recognize you as my big brother! Of course, I will treat you to grilled fish. I secretly caught fish in the creek and grilled it. It's delicious." oh!"

He didn't want to eat noodles, he just wanted to let Hinata Yuzuru chat with him again and go out with him.

He likes to play with Yuzuru Hinata.

Hinata Yuzuru put one hand on the counter and supported his chin with the other. He was about to reply when a voice suddenly came from behind him.

“Yuzuru!?”

Turning around, I saw Izumi's smiling face blooming in front of the ramen shop. She was wearing a ninja forehead protector at the moment, and behind her were two Genin and a Jonin, all wearing tight combat uniforms.

"Izumi, long time no see." Hinata Yuzuru smiled back. There was no seat in the store, so she stood directly next to Hinata Yuzuru and looked him up and down.

"Did you cut your hair? It suits you very well!" Quan praised, her little face slightly blushing.

"Before I have time to congratulate you on your early graduation, have you received the graduation gift I asked my clan members to give you?"

Hinata Yuzuru said, and Izumi nodded gently: "Of course! Thank you for the 'Super Deluxe Ninja Tool Set', my teammates are very envious of me!"

She stepped aside and introduced her teammates.

"This is my teacher, Kato Kei, he's a very powerful jonin! This is my teammate Hanako-chan, and this is Yaoyang-kun."

The two Genin and Jonin behind Izumi greeted Hinata Yuzuru in a friendly manner.

Only the genin named Lin Xia Yaoyang seemed a little displeased with him.

"Teacher, you go eat barbecue. I want to eat ramen with Yuzuru."

Kato Kei didn't know whether he had anything to do with Kato Dan. Upon hearing this, he just winked at her with a teasing smile and said, "Then I won't bother you anymore."

"Yaoyang, don't stand here, come on and eat some barbecue." The female ninja named Hanako also smiled and pushed away Lin Xia Yaoyang, who had a depressed look on his face and seemed to want to stay here. She understood what she meant and made room for her and Hinata Yuzuru.

Hinata Yuzuru just smiled: Izumi is so charming.

She waited until the people around Hinata Yuzuru finished their noodles and made way for him, then she took the opportunity to sit next to Hinata Yuzuru.

Hinata Yuzuru saw her smiling face for the first time in a long time, and was in a good mood and introduced Uzumaki Naruto to her.

Izumi smiled at Uzumaki Naruto, "Hello, Naruto-kun."

"Hello! Sister Quan."

Uzumaki Naruto only felt that he was really lucky today. Except for the eldest brother Hyuga Yuzuru, this sister named Izumi Kawai didn't seem to hate him.

"How does it feel to be a Genin?" Hinata Yuzuru asked softly, holding his chin.

Quan said with a bitter face: "Every day I catch cats and dogs, help people plow the land and repair houses."

She talked about everything she had never complained about before, and soon she said in high spirits, "But soon we will be able to go out on missions. The teacher said that next time, we will be given a mission within the Fire Country, and we can leave the village!"

"Protect yourself and don't be stubborn," Hinata Yuzuru reminded her, and she listened patiently, her smile growing brighter and brighter. Being cared for by the person she loved, even if it was something her parents had said many times, she felt extra warm in her heart.

Hinata Yuzuru paused, then said: "Come to my house tonight. I'm going to treat Kakashi, Shisui and the others to hot pot. I wanted to come to you anyway."

"Okay!" Quan agreed immediately.

Uzumaki Naruto's eyes were dim and he said nothing, but Hinata Yuzuru put a hand on his head: "Do you want to come?"

"I" didn't know whether I should go or not. I wanted to go, but was afraid of being hated.

"Then come on. If the Third Hokage has any objections, I will plead for you." Hinata Yuzuru smiled and ruffled his hair.

Very smooth.

Uzumaki Naruto was a little touched. He lowered his head and wanted to cry, but he held back: "Won't Yuzuru's friends hate me?"

"Don't worry, I'm here." Hinata Yuzuru really just said it casually like coaxing a child, but it made him even more moved. He didn't know what he was thinking and fell silent.

Izumi took the opportunity to chirp in Hinata Yuzuru's ear about the interesting things he had encountered recently.

Hinata Yuzuru would occasionally make comments and respond appropriately, but Izumi gradually stopped talking.

After the ramen came, Hinata Yuzuru and Naruto started eating like a competition. Naruto's eating momentum was quite wild. He picked up the noodle bowl and ate with a splash, while Hinata Yuzuru was relatively elegant. He looked at He didn't eat very quickly, and even when he ate the noodles, he made very little slurping noises, but he actually ate faster than Naruto.

The sea bowl in front of the two people was removed for several rounds. Hinata Yuzuru gently took out a handkerchief and wiped his mouth. He turned to look at Izumi who had only eaten half of the bowl of noodles and the noodles were already lumpy. He looked at it calmly. Holding her.

Quan didn't know what he was thinking about. He stared at the noodle bowl. He picked up a chopstick and dropped most of it, but he unconsciously put one or two chopsticks into his mouth.

"thanks for treatment."

Hinata Yuzuru leisurely took out a stack of the largest denomination, which was 200 taels of banknotes, and placed it on the table. He was the only one who could eat such a stack of money from a bowl of noodles.

Naruto caught a glimpse of his wallet, and his eyes almost turned into mosquito-repellent incense - it was all filled with banknotes!

How much does such a thick stack cost?

Does his family run a money shop?

Or are all ninjas so rich?

Quan, who was standing by, realized the situation belatedly. She put down her chopsticks and smiled: "Are you full?"

Hinata Yuzuru didn't reply, but just glanced at her bowl of noodles. The smile on her face became a little awkward. For a moment, the atmosphere suddenly became a little weird.

Naruto couldn't read the strange atmosphere between the two of them at all.

At this moment, he held his stomach and said, "I'm full. I really want to take a nap."

"Okay, I'll take you home, and I'll have someone pick you up when we have hotpot tonight."

Hinata Yuzuru looked at Izumi and saw that she didn't say anything, so he knew that she had something on her mind. Maybe she wanted to wait until they were alone to say it, so he sent Naruto home first.

Naruto lived in an ordinary apartment building, not far or near from the Hokage Building. It was considered a pretty good location. Hinata Yuzuru glanced at the ANBU who had been hanging behind him, and nodded to him without leaving a trace. Watching Naruto go upstairs.

"At night. If, I mean..." Naruto stood at the stairs awkwardly.

"Don't worry, I'll come." Hinata Yuzuru said softly.

He stared at Hinata Yuzuru blankly for a while, nodded, and went upstairs.

Quan still didn't say anything.

Hinata Yuzuru and she walked aimlessly. When they came to their senses, they came to the small park again.

It was already November, and the weather was getting cooler. The leaves on the trees in the park were beginning to fall one after another. The withered yellow leaves made crisp crackling sounds when stepped on.

I wanted to sit on the small swing, but as expected, it had become a little crowded, while Quan was just right.

She said nothing, turning her head to stare at Hinata Yuzuru's side face, looking at his figure that was already much taller than her, and wondering whether she should express her thoughts.

"Yuzuru, do you think I'm boring?"

Izumi asked quietly.

Hinata Yuzuru pushed up his glasses and looked up at the fallen leaves: "Why do you say that?"

"I always feel like you always treat me like a younger sister like Naruto."

Izumi bit her lower lip lightly. When Hinata Yuzuru looked at her, her long hair covered half of her face, and her teardrop mole was faintly visible under her hair.

"Yeah, that's true." Hinata Yuzuru said softly, smiling: "After all, my mental age may be several dozen years old."

She didn't know if this was a joke, but she still smiled, and then looked down at her feet with a dejected look: "Is that so?"

Izumi graduated early and became a Genin. She came into contact with many people who were much older than she was now, and was also exposed to many adult affairs.

In this process, her gradually maturing mind also allowed her to gradually understand more delicate emotions that she could not understand when she was a child. For example, she was very clear about her feelings for Hinata Yuzuru, but she also woke up at the same time. , what is Hinata Yuzuru’s attitude towards herself.

It seems that from the beginning of her memory, the impression of Hinata Yuzuru is so mature, reliable, and strong. As she grows up, her vision becomes wider and wider, but she is shocked to find that no matter when she thinks about it, his His maturity and strength were far beyond his expectations.

Maybe, in a few years, and then a few more years, I will still be like a younger sister in Hinata Yuzuru's eyes.

But
I don't want this.

I like you!
But it was hard to say it, because she knew that even if she said these words at this moment, Hinata Yuzuru would only treat herself like an ignorant child, coaxing her gently, and then wisely keeping her distance.

Not reconciled.

Really, I’m so unwilling!

Her fingernails were digging into her flesh, stinging her, but she didn't let the tears that were about to burst out fall.

"Yuzuru."

"Ok?"

"When will I grow up?"

She asked a mysterious question.

"When you don't want to grow up." Hinata Yuzuru gave a wise answer.

Quan took his answer to heart, then stepped lightly on the ground and swung the swing.

"What kind of girl would Yuzuru like?"

"beautiful."

".So cunning."

"That's the truth."

Quan couldn't help but reach out his hand, lifted his hair and tucked it behind his ear, but he didn't ask any more questions. He raised his head and gazed at the fallen autumn leaves with him.

After a long time, she whispered: "I won't go to the hot pot tonight."

"Oh." Hinata Yuzuru replied calmly, and then reached out and tapped her head. In her somewhat angry eyes, he showed a bright smile: "When you want to treat me to a meal, come to the Hinata family to find me."

He really understands.

Quan's smile was bitter, but also filled with unabashed affection, and he reached out his hand with firm eyes.

"Well, it's agreed that when the time comes, you're not allowed to refuse."

She said with a smile.

The two hands stretched out their fingers in the air and hooked them tightly, making a promise.

Hinata Yuzuru could feel that her fingers were trembling slightly, and she took the initiative to let go of her hand and jumped up from the swing.

"Well, I'm going home first! You don't need to see me off. Bye!"

She waved her hand, said goodbye eagerly, and then ran away along the all-too-familiar road.

Hinata Yuzuru calmly watched her back and did not chase her.

In my heart, there was some expectation.

The day we meet again.

What he could see must be her beautiful figure chasing after him and running towards him with all her might.

He raised the corners of his mouth and smiled with a hint of relief.

Now Quan, I definitely hope that time will go as slowly as possible. Every time I have more time, I can take one more step towards myself.

And because of this, she has grown up now.

Standing up, Hinata Yuzuru stretched.

In the evening, he organized a dinner party.

Not just for a hot pot meal.

The war with Kumogakure has come to an end at this moment, but another war without the smoke of gunpowder has already sounded the horn in the darkness.

I'm afraid the next battle will take place inside the village.

And want to win this battle.

Currently, he needs help.
