Naruto: Talent entry, starting with Otsutsuki bloodline

Chapter 106 Hinata's birthday, being looked down upon
"A 3."

"Big bomb! Airplane."

"Eh--"

In the chess and card room of the villa, Tsunade, who was taking a lunch break, came with Shizune to play Landlord with Izayoi.

No matter how many times the Charity Poker King loses, his addiction remains strong.

But this time, she was defeated.

Seeing that he had only thrown a three of diamonds, Shizai used a royal bomb and a plane to end the game instantly.

Tsunade was stunned, then suddenly said angrily: "You have such good cards, why don't you become the landlord?"

"Blame me? It was you who insisted on snatching it." Izayoi spread his hands and complained mercilessly, "Besides, Hokage-sama, your luck with cards is too bad. You can't carry it at all. Even if a card like me plays the role of farmer with you, Shizune might be able to win it."

"What did you say! Do you want to fight?" Tsunade rolled up her sleeves, looking furious.

"Lady Tsunade, calm down." Shizune quickly smiled wryly to comfort him.

Izayoi, however, was not afraid at all. He shook his head and sighed, "Playing cards with you, Hokage-sama, really doesn't give me any sense of accomplishment. I'm really afraid that you will lose all the military funds allocated by the Daimyo."

"Nani! Am I the kind of person who would embezzle public funds?"

"Who knows? After all, when gambling gets too much, they're capable of anything, right?"

"You little brat, if you have the guts, go to the ring and have a fight!"

"If I don't, I'll have to pay for the repairs of the damaged ground myself."

"Ah ah ah..."

Seeing Tsunade, who was so angry that she was grabbing her head with both hands and fuming, but could do nothing to Izayoi, Karin came in with a fruit plate and said softly, "Izayoi-kun, please stop bullying Tsunade-sensei."

"Just telling the truth."

Izayoi stood up and said with a smile, "You should fight Karin. I have to go practice."

"and many more……"

Tsunade called Izayoi and said seriously, "Let's change places. The four of us will play mahjong and I'll tell you something while we're at it."

Izayoi tilted his head, somewhat confused.

Then the four of them changed to another table and started playing mahjong.

"You've been resting for so long, when are you going to go on a mission?" Tsunade said as she shuffled the cards. "Although you're rich, your battle record is too little. If you keep going like this, it will be difficult for you to take the Jonin exam next year."

"No rush, let's talk about it later." Izayoi smiled, "Besides, Shino hasn't been promoted to Chunin yet, so Hinata and I can't get away from him too much."

"Actually, the Chunin Exams are held twice a year. The reason you only remember the July Chunin Exam is because it was more grand and its purpose was to observe the national strength of the allied nations."

Tsunade played her cards while smiling slowly. "Considering that some teams have already had members promoted to Chunin, in order to avoid an imbalance in strength during the Chunin Exam in July, teams that already have Chunin members will not be allowed to participate in the Chunin Exam in July. However, the remaining members who are still Genin can participate in the Chunin Exam held in the first half of the year, which is only open to Genin from the village."

"I see... Riichi." Izayoi suddenly realized something and then covered the card.

Tsunade's brow furrowed in thought, and a little cold sweat broke out on her face. She continued, "Aburame Shino's strength is quite good. To be more precise, there's hardly a single weak member of the Aburame clan. With his strength, the Chunin Exams in the first half of the year shouldn't be difficult for him."

"So you'd better work harder next year and stop being so lazy." Tsunade said sarcastically, "When Hatake Kakashi was your age, he had already become an all-round jonin."

"Self-draw, seven pairs."

"You have such bad luck that you can even draw this kind of cards!" Tsunade's defense was broken again, and she pushed the cards away, "I won't play it anymore, it's meaningless."

"You don't have to fight, but you have to pay before you leave."

"First...first owe it."

Tsunade, who had been furious, suddenly softened her tone and changed the subject, saying seriously, "Also...you must be careful when you leave Konoha. Jiraiya sent me some information a few days ago."

"The eyes of the Six Paths Sage, the first of the three legendary eye techniques, do exist."

"And there are more than one pair of eyes like this."

"The one who teamed up with Orochimaru to launch Konoha's collapse plan wasn't the Akatsuki leader, but a mysterious individual of unknown gender, age, and identity," Tsunade said gravely. "He took advantage of Konoha's chaos to not only sneak into the Root's underground base and kill Danzo Shimura and all the Root members, but also stole the bodies of all the fallen ninjas and captured an ANBU who had been a Wood Release experiment subject."

"At present, it is confirmed that the Rinnegan can use rule-based abilities such as repulsion and attraction, and can also create puppets from human corpses, and even retain their abilities in life. In the future, Shimura Danzo, the members of the Root Organization, and that Wood Release experiment may appear before us as enemies."

At this point, Tsunade said with a somewhat relieved tone: "Fortunately, you were smart and didn't reveal your Wood Release in advance. Otherwise, during the Chunin Exam, that mysterious man's target might very well be you."

"..."

If it weren't for his strong ability to control facial expressions, the corners of Izayoi's mouth would have twitched slightly.

I thought it was a big deal, but it turned out to be a reminder to myself to be vigilant.

However, Izayoi still nodded seriously on the surface: "I understand, Hokage-sama."

"You have the Kagura Heart Eye, so I'm not too worried about you. However, this is the first time the Rinnegan has appeared. No one knows if these eyes have hidden other abilities, so it's better to be cautious."

Tsunade stood up and patted Izayoi's shoulder, grinning wickedly: "The new Book of Sealing is ready. If you want to learn forbidden techniques, I can give you a price. Don't waste your talent for ninjutsu."

"Ugh……"

Izayoi couldn't help but shake his head and sigh: "You can even sell forbidden techniques. Hokage, you said you wouldn't embezzle public funds, but you really don't have any credibility at all."

"Forget it, you little brat, you will regret it!" Tsunade immediately left angrily.

"..."

Izayoi, who was almost unable to hold back his words, suddenly stopped speaking.

At this time, Karin also waved and smiled at Izayoi, "Izayoi-kun, lunch is ready. If you are hungry, just go to the kitchen and heat it up. I am also going to the Hokage Building to help and practice."

"I understand. Come on."

After seeing off Tsunade and the other two girls, the villa instantly became deserted.

Hanabi hasn't had her holiday yet and should still be in the ninja school at this time.

Hinata might be busy with something and hasn't come yet.

Xiaoqiang and the others had all gone out to carry out their missions, and Shizayoi was the only one left in the huge villa.

Izayoi did not feel lonely, but returned to the traditional building, created several wooden clones, and asked them to go to the underground base to practice a certain technique.

The main body came to a room full of tools, sat at a table, and continued to make a birthday gift specially prepared for Hinata.

……

12 month 27 day.

This day was a very ordinary day for Konoha and even the entire ninja world.

However, for the Hyuga clan, this day is a very important day.

Because this day is the birthday of the eldest daughter of the Hyuga clan.

As Hinata shows her talent, her status in the clan is many times higher than in the original novel.

Before Izayoi revealed her Wood Release technique, the clan elders, in order to consolidate Hinata's position, even reprimanded Hyuga Hiashi several times, blaming him as the clan leader for taking the lead in violating the ancestral teachings and not carving a caged bird on Hanabi.

If he wasn't so old, he might even hit someone.

After Izayoi revealed Wood Release, Hinata's status in the clan became higher.

The elders of the clan, who were already very kind to her, became even more kind and enthusiastic.

This year's birthday party is more grand than ever before.

Since last night, members of the branch family have been busy and started to make arrangements in various places within the clan.

Whether they are members of the main family or the branch family, they need to leave work early today and return to the clan in advance to prepare to celebrate the eldest lady's birthday.

The last time it was so grand was nine years ago.

That day, even though the Kumogakure delegation came to Konoha, the Hyuga clan did not go out to participate in the celebration, but instead celebrated the eldest lady's birthday within the clan.

However, after that year, there were no more big birthday parties for the eldest daughter.

This year it suddenly became so grand that many members of the Hyuga clan seemed to smell gossip.

And this day is also a very special and meaningful day for Izayoi.

Nine years ago today, Shizai used the novice gift pack awarded by the talent entry system and completed a miracle that changed his fate.

If Izayoi hadn't copied Otsutsuki Toneri's red entry, her current strength would definitely not be so amazing.

Even if he copied Uzumaki Naruto's Sage Body (Red) and unleashed Uchiha Sasuke's Sage Eyes (Red), and began to reunite the two poles, his strength would still be far less than it is now.

After all, these two red entries are quite different from the Otsutsuki bloodline (red). It will take at least ten years to awaken the Rinnegan.

On the other hand, Izayoi, the prince with Otsutsuki bloodline (red) and Byakugan (red), has already awakened the Samsara Eye.

Feeling the power in the eyes, Izayoi had a premonition.

After a while, the Reincarnation Eye will experience its second fetal movement.

……

At dusk, Izayoi finished her bath, put on the white robe given by the Hyuga sisters, and said to Karin with a smile: "Karin, come with me to Hinata's birthday party."

"Eh? This... this isn't good." Karin scratched her face, a little embarrassed, "The Hyuga clan only invited you, Izayoi-kun. If I go along, will it embarrass you?"

"Don't worry, you are my family, they will only please you." Izayoi touched Karin's head and smiled, "And Hinata specifically asked me to bring you there."

"Hehe... then I'll come over and eat and drink for free without any hesitation." Karin said with a smile on her face, jumping up and down, "Izayoi-kun, wait a moment, I'll go bring the gift."

However, when Karin came out, she had also changed her clothes and put on a purple kimono with petal patterns, and her temperament suddenly had a bit of the feeling of a descendant of a wealthy family.

Soon, the two of them walked out of the house and headed towards the Hyuga clan's territory.

Along the way, Izayoi was the center of attention, and a large number of villagers greeted him warmly.

Every time Izayoi went out, he was treated like this on Central Street.

It’s okay now, at least I can still walk on the street.

At the beginning, the villagers were even more crazy, forcing Izayoi to fly every time he went out.

With a mask-like smile on his face, Izayoi nodded in response while quickening his pace.

After crossing several streets, Izayoi and Karin finally arrived at the Hyuga clan.

The Hyuga clan seemed to have received the news of Izayoi's going out in advance, or they had been waiting at the door for a long time.

When Izayoi and Karin arrived at the gate of the clan, two pale-haired elders, with several clan members standing behind them, who were not sure whether they were descendants or subordinates, immediately came forward and said in a very warm tone, "Welcome, Lord Izayoi, to the Hyuga clan. We are truly honored."

"Forehead……"

Karin was shocked by the scene.

Izayoi was also slightly stunned.

Seeing that none of the elders had caged birds on their foreheads, they were obviously members of the main family and seemed to be of very high status. After Izayoi came to his senses, he also bowed politely and said, "Hello, sorry to bother you." Seeing that Izayoi was so easy to get along with, the two elders smiled even more. One of them hurriedly said, "The clan leader and the eldest lady have been waiting inside for a long time. Sir Izayoi, please follow me."

After saying that, the two elders walked on the left and the right, not daring to even lead Izayoi by half a body length. They just raised their hands to point the way and led Izayoi into the Hyuga clan's territory.

Their enthusiasm and attitude were beyond Izayoi's imagination, and also shocked Karin and even the Hyuga clan members who accidentally witnessed this scene when the buffet started, dropping their jaws.

Each of the clan elders holds great power in the family and is also a respected elder with high moral character.

Sometimes, even the patriarch cannot go against their decisions.

For the members of the branch family, these elders are just like the patriarch, and they are all high and mighty.

However, even such a big shot was standing on both sides of Shizayoi in a very ungraceful manner, with wrinkled faces and bright smiles, and his eyes were almost invisible.

His kind look didn't seem like that of an elder treating a favored younger generation, but more like the flattery and fawning of a servant to his master.

It's very eye-catching and seriously damages the image.

Therefore, Izayoi, who was flattered by the two elders, immediately became the focus of the Hyuga clan.

No matter the members of the main family or the branch family, they all looked at Izayoi with curiosity, causing Izayoi to suffer from "the cold shoulder" along the way.

Some people recognized Izayoi, and after a slight realization, they also seemed to realize something, and their expressions became excited and excited.

After Izayoi and the elders left, the sound of discussion began to rise and soon spread throughout the clan.

It turns out that the reason why the eldest lady's birthday party this year was held so grandly was to entertain Lord Izayoi who had awakened Wood Release.

The relationship between the young lady and Mr. Izayoi is indeed not just that of classmates and companions.

This descendant of the Senju clan, the future of Konoha, is their future son-in-law!

The atmosphere in the Hyuga clan suddenly became lively.

At this time, Izayoi also came to Hinata's home for the first time under the guidance of the elders.

"Onii-chan..."

At the door of the clan leader's residence, Hinata Hiashi and the Hinata sisters had been waiting there for a long time.

The disrespectful Hanabi immediately threw herself into Izayoi's arms.

Seeing this scene, Hyuga Hiashi and the elders did not scold him, but the latter's smile became even wider.

The better the relationship between the future son-in-law and the future head of the clan, the greater the benefit to the Hyuga clan.

In this way, there is no need to worry about the eldest daughter getting married and cutting off ties with the Hyuga clan.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting, Hanabi."

Izayoi hugged Hanabi who rushed towards him and touched her head with a smile.

At the same time, Izayoi also looked at Hyuga Hiashi who was next to Hinata. This was the first time he met his future father-in-law.

Holding Hanabi in hand, Izayoi came in front of Hinata Hiashi and bowed slightly, saying, "Nice to meet you, uncle. Hello, Izayoi is honored."

"Welcome to the Hyuga clan, Izayoi."

A smile appeared on Hinata Hiashi's serious face. He bowed and said in return, "Thank you for taking care of my daughter over the years."

Seeing this, the elders all smiled with satisfaction, and then instructed: "Hi, Master Izayoi will be entertained by you, so please do not neglect him."

"Happy birthday, Miss Hinata. I won't bother you any more."

"Elders, take care."

Hinata, who had walked around the clan land with her father before, immediately bowed.

After the greetings, Izayoi looked at Hinata today, his eyes shining slightly, and praised sincerely: "Hinata, happy birthday, you look super beautiful today."

Hinata was still wearing a white kimono with petal patterns and a purple belt today. However, unlike the kimono usually worn for battle, today was a traditional kimono worn on important festivals. The hem was almost as long as the ankles, and she was wearing a pair of wooden clogs on her feet.

The long black hair like silk was also turned into a princess hairstyle, which made her look more like a princess from a wealthy family.

Hinata's delicate and pretty little face was lightly made up, and her height and figure were almost the same as in Shippuden, making her radiant at the moment, making Karin, who was still in her youth, feel ashamed.

Facing Izayoi's praise, Hinata's face flushed, but she did not lower her head shyly. Instead, she responded with a soft smile: "Thank you Izayoi-kun, you are still as handsome today."

After saying that, the two smiled at each other again.

"Let's talk after we go inside."

Under the guidance of Hyuga Hiashi, Izayoi stepped into Hinata's home for the first time.

This was a good start, and it also meant that when Izayoi came to see Hinata in the future, she would no longer have to wait outside the Hyuga clan's territory, and could come and go freely at any time.

When we arrived at Hinata's family's restaurant, the table was already filled with delicacies from land and sea, as well as traditional birthday foods such as red bean rice, rice cakes, and kelp soup, with a five-layer cake in the middle.

"Sister, it's time to make a wish and blow out the candles." After lighting the candles, Huahuo ran to turn off the lights and urged.

Hinata also ceremoniously put her hands together, made a prayer gesture, closed her eyes and began to make a wish.

After a while, Hinata, who had amazing lung capacity, blew out all the candles in one breath.

"Happy birthday, Hinata."

After Hanabi turned on the lights, Karin immediately smiled and handed out her gift, an exquisitely wrapped gift box.

"Thank you, Karin." Hinata took it with a gentle smile.

Hanabi came over, looked at Izayoi who had nothing in her hands, and asked curiously, "Onii-chan, where's your birthday present?"

Hinata also looked over expectantly.

Izayoi patted Hanabi's head and said with a smile, "My gift is a little special. I want to give it to Hinata later."

Hearing this, Hinata became even more excited.

"Let's eat first."

Hinata Hiashi, who was out of tune with young people, immediately invited Izayoi and the others to sit down.

In front of Hyuga Hiashi, Izayoi and the others also couldn't let go.

Even the disrespectful Hua Huo pays great attention to etiquette.

As if he could see how restrained they were, Hyuga Hiashi only ate for about ten minutes before he stood up and said to Hinata, "I'll go over there. Hinata, you stay and entertain Izayoi and your friends. By the way, ask Izayoi's opinion."

After saying that, Hinata Hiashi nodded to Izayoi and walked out of the house.

"What's your opinion?" Izayoi looked at Hinata in confusion.

"There's actually a banquet going on outside, but my father and the elders are worried that Izayoi-kun doesn't like the atmosphere there, and they're also afraid that the tribe members might accidentally offend him, so they've arranged a separate family banquet." Hinata explained softly, "The elders all want to meet Izayoi-kun and introduce him to the tribe members. I wanted to ask you, Izayoi-kun, if you want to attend the banquet over there?"

"I see." Shizayoi suddenly understood, and at the same time he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Wow, the Hyuga clan is indeed a sensible clan, and they have considered this very carefully.

No wonder they sent him an invitation but treated him to a family dinner. It turned out that they even took his feelings into consideration.

Good, loyal enough!
It has to be said that the Hyuga clan successfully gained Izayoi's favor.

Izayoi was very satisfied with his first impression of them.

But on the surface, he shook his head and smiled: "We'll meet again someday. Now I just want to celebrate your birthday with you, Hinata."

"Uh-huh……"

Hinata nodded repeatedly. She actually didn't like that kind of occasion and preferred a simple family dinner.

"Onii-chan, did you bring your camera?"

After her father left, Hanabi revealed her true colors and sat on Izayoi's lap, smiling and teasing, "Sis, you look so beautiful today, don't you want to take a picture?"

Izayoi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he rubbed his sister-in-law's face and said with a smile: "It's all Hinata's fault. She knocked me out at the door. If Hanabi hadn't reminded me, I would have forgotten it."

Rolling up his sleeves, Izayoi took out the camera stored in the sealed scroll, loaded new film, and pressed the shutter button at Hinata, who was eating heartily with her little face puffed up like two buns.

Hearing the voice, Hinata, who was holding a big chicken drumstick, cast a puzzled look.

Her Royal Highness the Princess with her princess hairstyle, holding a big chicken drumstick does not look rude, but rather full of contrasting beauty. The cute picture with her puffed cheeks and puzzled eyes was instantly preserved forever.

"Onii-chan, get a clone out so we can take a picture with my sister and Karin-nee."

"it is good!"

Izayoi and Hanabi, who didn't have big appetites, started to make a fuss.

After handing the camera to the wooden clone, Izayoi pulled Hanabi and Karin to Hinata's side, gave the C position to the birthday boy, and then took a photo of them sitting at the dining table.

At the beginning, they were taking photos normally and didn't disturb Hinata who was just getting into the mood.

Hinata quickly emptied the plates, leaving only the five-layer cake with only a little bit eaten in the middle.

Izayoi and Hanabi smiled at each other, and in perfect tacit understanding, they grabbed a handful of cream. The former slapped Hinata on the face, causing the girl to look up at him in confusion.

Hanabi suddenly stabbed her beloved Onii-chan in the back and threw the cream in her hand at Izayoi, hitting her right in the face.

The latter looked at the clingy little pillow in disbelief.

Karin was covering her mouth and laughing secretly.

Click!

The sound of a shutter was heard, and the wooden clone captured the scene.

"Izayoi-kun..."

Hinata stood up with her pink fists clenched, her eyes covered by shadows, and black gas emanating from her whole body.

"Ahem... I was wrong, I was wrong. It's all my fault."

Izayoi took out a handkerchief and wiped the cream off Hinata's face, as well as the black gas on her body. He smiled and changed the subject, saying, "Hinata, I have prepared a surprise for you. I'll show you now."

After finishing speaking, Izayoi said to Karin, "Karin, you stay with Hanabi, or let Hanabi take you out for a walk."

Immediately, the figures of Izayoi and Hinata disappeared out of thin air.

The wooden clone also disappeared.

"Disappeared!"

Grabbing a handful of cake and ready to fight back at any moment, Hanabi exclaimed in shock, "There's no movement at all. How did Onii-chan and onee-chan disappear?"

Karin also formed seals with both hands and released Kagura's inner eyes with all her strength. Then, with a look of shock, she said, "Konoha doesn't even have the chakra of Izayoi-kun and Hinata. What we just did was... space-time ninjutsu!"

"So...so awesome!"

Although Hanabi didn't know what space-time ninjutsu was, when she heard that Izayoi and Hinata were not in Konoha, her eyes sparkled and she said, "We can leave Konoha in an instant. Doesn't that mean Onii-chan can take Hanabi on trips anytime in the future?"
