It seems that ever since this man took power, the Hyuga clan has become indecisive about which side to take in the village.
The importance of a meeting held after a disaster cannot be overstated.
Therefore, in addition to the old village chief and his old friends, the heads of other clans and the prominent ninjas of the village were all present at this meeting.
Even so, it still felt rather deserted.
Besides the departure of the three legendary ninjas, the biggest reason is that the Nine-Tails' attack last night also led to a small reshuffling of the upper echelons of power. The once number one ninja village now seems to be all bark and no bite.
"I'm sure everyone knows how this all started."
The first to speak was not the third-generation village chief, but Koharu Tsurugi, the village chief's advisor with whom he had a close relationship.
After listening, Hinata Hima understood.
These words were probably spoken at the behest of three generations.
Without him.
This guy's intentions are already set on the seemingly innocent-looking Fugaku brothers.
"The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki's birth weakened him, causing the seal to loosen, which was then exploited by someone with ulterior motives to cause a disaster."
Koharu Utatane's tone was cold, reminiscent of Kushina's unawareness of her status as a Jinchuriki, suggesting that her insistence on having children would bring disaster to the village.
Why would a Jinchūriki (human spirit) have to suffocate if they're going to have children?
Will I die if I just endure it?
If you hadn't insisted on having a child, Konoha wouldn't have suffered such a disaster!
This is probably the village chief's true thought, and this resentment will likely extend to the baby.
They even proactively leaked information, claiming to the outside world what the child's existence represented.
Naruto's unhappy childhood might well have been partly due to her.
but.
Who was it that insisted on making Kushina a Jinchuriki in the first place?
It seems no one in the village consulted the villagers' opinions.
Hinata Hisei chuckled and chose to lean back tactically, treating it as if an old dog had just been talking nonsense.
His actions caused Koharu to frown slightly.
However, she didn't say anything, since there was someone more important to target than the Hyuga clan.
She took a deep breath and looked at Uchiha Fugaku.
"According to several eyewitnesses, the Nine-Tails' eyes showed tomoe in the early stages of its descent."
"And the ninja world possesses such methods."
Only the Uchiha!
The Sharingan's eye techniques can control the Nine-Tails!
Many of you here have lived through that era. Even if you didn't experience it firsthand, your clan has records of the battle at the Valley of the End.
Madara Uchiha once used his Sharingan to control the Nine-Tails and fought a great battle with Hashirama Senju that rewrote the map!
At this moment.
When everyone's eyes turned to Fugaku Uchiha, the Fugaku brothers instantly understood Koharu Utatane's subtext.
The Uchiha clan is unwilling to be controlled by the village. Last night, they controlled the Nine-Tails to take revenge. They are the masterminds behind this disaster!
It's not hard to imagine that such rumors would spread throughout the village after the meeting.
This is pure blame-shifting!
And the Uchiha were the ones who took the blame and bore the brunt of the villagers' resentment!
When faced with great misfortune, people always need someone to complain to.
The Uchiha clan is the most suitable choice.
It's all destined.
After several changes in expression, the Fugaku brothers, who had been targeted, regained their intellectual advantage and were suddenly awakened from their dream of competing for the Hokage position.
With a simple analysis, he understood the ultimate purpose of the meeting.
The position of Hokage?
That has absolutely nothing to do with the Uchiha clan anymore.
The ultimate goal of this meeting is probably to assign blame!
Even though everyone present understood that this matter probably had little to do with the Uchiha clan of Konoha, since the production of Jinchuriki, from the guards to those in the know, was basically handled by the Hokage's lineage.
Even the Uchiha clan didn't know that the Jinchuriki had given birth yesterday.
The person in charge of taking care of Kushina was still the old village chief's wife, Biwako. Last night, the village chief's wife died of anger after giving birth.
What's even more ridiculous is that at that time, the entire Uchiha clan was ordered not to approach the center of the battle. Their responsibility was to protect non-combat personnel, so they couldn't get involved in the whole process. Didn't Fugaku realize now that the Nine-Tails' madness was actually controlled by the Sharingan?
I felt so frustrated and wronged!
Even so, the Uchiha clan has no choice but to take the blame.
Because everyone in the village saw the crimson, swirling three-tomoe pearl within the Nine-Tailed Fox's pupils.
Bearing this blame also means that the Uchiha clan has withdrawn from the competition for Hokage.
In addition, when the contents of the high-level meeting are leaked, even more severe consequences will follow the Uchiha clan.
As expected of you.
The third generation.
Having figured everything out, Fugaku Uchiha's eyes flashed with rage as he stared intently at Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Ok.
After Minato Namikaze took over, his gentle approach to the Uchiha clan, which made Fugaku forget the attitude of the Third Village Chief and the Konoha leadership towards the Uchiha!
No wonder he smelled that familiar scent of internal attack when he first came in.
The smell was both foul and pungent, exactly the same as when the three generations held meetings during their rise to power!
He had previously wondered if the meeting room was built on a latrine, but now he realized how slow-witted he was!
In short, the Uchiha clan can't escape taking the blame.
However, the Fugaku brothers clearly wanted to try again. He solemnly slapped the table, interrupting Koharu Utatane's attempt to continue the conversation, and stood up.
There's no way to back down now; that old geezer just mentioned relocating the Uchiha clan!
If he really goes to the new tribe's territory, the tribespeople will definitely not be able to stand it. He already has a hard time suppressing those crazy people who want to rebel. Isn't this just adding fuel to the fire?
"The Uchiha clan never had any intention of taking revenge on the village, and the idea of using the Sharingan to control the Nine-Tails is utter nonsense!"
"Last night, our clan didn't even participate in the siege of the Nine-Tails, not from beginning to end."
He argued hard.
But his isolated and helpless appearance made everyone except Hinata Himo secretly sneer.
Yes.
They all watched coldly as Fugaku Uchiha was framed.
But what Richeng was thinking about was something else entirely.
If the Third Hokage had lived to a ripe old age, the fate of the Uchiha clan could have been the tomorrow of any of you here.
It's laughable that these people stood by indifferently, completely unaware of this.
However, for Hinata Himo, who is familiar with the plot, there is a sense of shared sorrow.
Just like in the original story where Hyuga Hizashi was forced to commit suicide, no one stood up for him; the people in this village were extremely indifferent.
Moreover, the trigger for that incident was even more outrageous than the current one, and it made it even more necessary to unite against a common enemy. Unfortunately...
Think of this.
Hinata Himo let out a breath of stale air, then looked up at the Fugaku brothers, whose faces were flushed and who looked like they wanted to curse.
"The Uchiha clan has made countless contributions to the village, and their efforts in the recent war are evident to all."
"I believe this disaster has nothing to do with the Uchiha clan of Konoha."
Yes, the key point is the Uchiha clan of Konoha.
What he said is completely correct. As for Obito, who was capable of killing his master and mistress, he is not included in this category.
Brothers!
Fugaku was deeply moved. If there hadn't been outsiders present, he would have gone over and given the Nichisei brothers a warm hug.
However, it seems the Nichijo brothers preferred his sister-in-law's cream puffs to his own hug? I must have Mikoto personally visit them to express my gratitude!
"Hmph! Since Hyuga Hitsugaya trusts the Uchiha clan so much, why don't you move the Hyuga clan's new clan territory to keep the Uchiha clan company?"
The old village chief's advisor's words carried a strong sense of threat.
The Uchiha clan has been completely kicked out of the center of power, and even their clan territory is to be relocated to the edge of Konoha. Does your Hyuga clan also want to go there?
These were harsh words, but the old village chief didn't stop him. His gaze towards Hinata Hijiri flickered slightly.
Given the Hyuga clan's past tendency to protect themselves, this kid should be sensible enough to turn his attention to the Uchiha clan instead.
pity.
When the ninjas looked at Hyuga Himo, the man was stunned for a moment, then nodded with an extremely awkward expression, and then stood up and rushed to Mitokado Homura.
Just as Mitokado Homura was frantically backing away, fearing that the Hyuga clan leader would be furious and hit someone, the guy snatched the Konoha reconstruction plan blueprints and pointed them at the blank space next to the Uchiha clan's territory.
"Ok, deal!"
Whoever tries to seize this auspicious land, Xiang Richeng will surely fight them one day!
