Naruto: After Unifying the Shinobi World, I Invaded the Parallel Shinobi World

The pavilion is surrounded by meticulously manicured gardens, where exotic flowers and rare plants vie for attention and exude fragrance.

Stepping inside the attic reveals an even more hidden world.

The spacious hall displays precious works of art and the family's medals of honor, showcasing the glorious achievements of the Hyuga clan.

Portraits of past patriarchs hang on the walls, their gazes firm and dignified, as if watching over the future of the family.

Ascending the stairs leads to the clan chief's private room, simply yet elegantly furnished, exuding an atmosphere of tranquility.

Looking out the window of the attic, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the entire Hidden Leaf Village.

In the distance, the mountains stretch endlessly, shrouded in mist; nearby, the streets are bustling with life and energy.

This Japanese-style pavilion is not only the residence of the Hyuga clan head, but also a symbol of the family, bearing their honor and responsibility.

Today, however, this place is extremely noisy.

Many people had already gathered here, but when a few arrived, they still looked puzzled.

"Is there some kind of event in the clan? Why are there so many people?"

"Don't you know? Neji's Caged Bird status has been revoked."

What? It's canceled?

"That's right! Not only that, the clan head also said that all the Caged Birds have been stripped of their status! From now on, the Hyuga clan will no longer be a main or branch family!"

"What? How is this possible?"

"Part of the main branch of the family splitting up? On what grounds?"

"So, from now on, our main family and branch families will have the same status? Isn't that a joke?"

"What is the clan leader thinking?"

"Has the clan leader become senile? What benefits did Neji give him?"

Chapter 114 Hyuga Hiashi also became a member of a branch family.

"Chieftain?! What's wrong with you? If you're being threatened, blink twice! We will definitely get justice for you!"

"Hiashi Hyuga! What exactly did you do? If it weren't for our Byakugan's immunity to genjutsu, I'd probably suspect you'd been controlled!"

"Clan Chief Hiashi! The Caged Bird Seal is a tradition passed down through generations of our Hyuga clan! You're just going to abolish it like this?! Did you even consult our ancestors?!"

"Hyuga Hiashi, you are no longer worthy of your position. I propose a clan meeting! Let this incompetent man be removed from office!"

Hinata Hyuga looked at her father on the stage, a deep worry flashing in her beautiful eyes.

"Father"

On the stage, Hiashi Hyuga had already prepared himself mentally.

But he never expected that he would still be despised by so many of his clansmen today.

However, thinking about what happened last night, he still forced himself to speak.

"Everyone! The Chunin Exams are just around the corner. Countless prodigies of my Hyuga clan are suffering from the problem of their identity, unable to gain recognition within the clan, let alone the village!"

"They were trembling with fear, and although they were clearly more hardworking and outstanding than most of their clansmen, their status led to an unpleasant outcome!"

"Why was our Hyuga clan once inferior to the Uchiha? Why are we now inferior to the Sarutobi clan? And why, despite possessing a powerful bloodline limit, are we not even ranked among the strongest clans in the village?"

"Gentlemen! We should be alarmed! We should unite as one!"

"Our Hyuga clan is clearly a large clan, and we should dominate a region, possessing a large population and land, and countless excellent ninjas! Everyone should have to consider our wishes!"

"But why? Why have we become like this? Ultimately, it's because we've been killing each other! Harming our own kind!"

Hiashi Hyuga delivered a passionate speech, his words filling many members of the branch family with hope.

However, what they saw most was the incomprehension of the main family and the look of someone who was being treated like a fool.

Has the clan chief gone mad?

What's the point of our Hyuga clan being so strong? The status of our main family is far more important!

Without the family splitting up, who will serve us?

"Damn you, Hiashi Hyuga! You don't deserve your position! Get down here!"

"Hyuga Hiashi! You betrayed the main family! You deserve to be caged like a bird!"

Hiashi Hyuga on the stage paused, then silently looked at Ningji beside him.

Everything that happened today was not what he wanted.

But if I don't do this, I won't be able to protect all my people!

"Alright, let's prepare for the Chunin Exams! As a prestigious clan in Konoha, the Hyuga clan has a few requirements for the members who will directly participate in the exams this time."

After the clan meeting ended, countless clan members expressed their astonishment and longed to see Hyuga Hiashi.

Last night, several people marked with the Caged Bird symbol disregarded the clan leader's authority and squeezed into the room where Hyuga Hiashi was.

"Chief! You must stand up for us!"

They came in saying they had important information to report, and it wasn't related to the cancellation of clan memberships today.

"Lord Hiashi! Please take a look at what's on our foreheads!"

One of them removed his headband, revealing the vividly depicted bird-in-the-cage symbol behind it to Hiashi Hyuga.

Hiashi Hyuga's pupils contracted.

Seeing that several people had been marked with the "caged bird" symbol, he was filled with astonishment and doubt.

"What's going on with you?"

Seeing that the clan chief was interested, the group quickly spoke up:

"Clan leader! Neji has marked us with the Caged Bird Seal!"

"Yes! Neji secretly learned the clan's forbidden technique! Clan head! Quickly remove the seals from us!"

"Clan leader! Neji deserves to die!"

Upon hearing the name Neji, Hiashi Hyuga swayed.

However, he quickly spoke seriously.

"Alright! I'm aware of this matter! I will investigate it thoroughly, so please keep quiet for now!"

Just as Hiashi Hyuga finished speaking, a cold voice rang out.

"What do you know?"

When Ningci appeared before them, they still looked like they'd seen a ghost.

"Neji?! You dare show your face here?"

"Neji! You're finished! The clan leader is right here, and you still dare to be so insolent!"

"Neji, you're so stupid! We've already complained to the clan leader, do you really intend to activate the seal and kill us in front of everyone?"

"Heh, Neji, you may not know this, but when it comes to control, you are absolutely no match for the clan leader!"

"Clan leader! Quickly release us from the control! lest that scoundrel Neji suddenly turn on us!"

Seeing that they had been discovered, the group decided to lay their cards on the table.

Forget all the pretense and cover-up; we've already been caught red-handed by the Hyuga clan head, so let's just be straightforward.

The other party hasn't used the Caged Bird yet, probably because they're afraid of being discovered and punished by the clan leader, right?

None of them noticed that Hiashi Hyuga's expression had become extremely ugly.

last night

Still in this lobby

"Neji? What are you doing here?"

Hiashi Hyuga sat at the table, holding a report he had recently collected about many elite clan members in the village being assigned to secret missions.

His gaze slowly swept over Ning Ci before him, then he continued to examine the report in his hand.

Seeing that Ningci remained silent, Hyuga Hiashi put down the report in his hand.

"Neji, you're here again because of your father's death, aren't you? I've already said he sacrificed himself willingly for his clan. His courage is admirable. I hope you can be like him and stop harboring such murderous intent towards Hinata."

"The fate of the main family and the branch family is predetermined by heaven. Don't dwell on it anymore. Just do your job well."

As Hiashi Hyuga spoke, he noticed that something was wrong with Ningji's state.

Ningci revealed a sinister smile.

"Before I came, I still had some hope for you, my uncle, but it seems I was overthinking it."

"Your thinking is extremely feudal and outdated."

"Hitashi Hyuga, you say fate is predetermined?"

"I'm here today to tell you that your fate is in your own hands! It's not determined by fate! It's this so-called destiny that has kept the Hyuga clan confined by Konoha and made them virtually unknown in the ninja world!"

After saying this, Ningci's chakra burst forth from his body, and he immediately went into full-force mode.

Hiashi Hyuga narrowed his eyes slightly, and his Byakugan opened at that moment.

He instantly realized that the opponent's chakra power was incredibly strong, to an unbelievable degree, even he, as the clan leader, felt a sense of insurmountable power.

"What's going on? Who are you? You're not Neji!"

Hiashi Hyuga directly activated the Caged Bird Seal, causing Ninja to frown slightly before he completely resisted the force.

The Caged Bird Seal above Neji's head within him was also erased when he activated it.

Seeing that the other party was responding to the Caged Bird's manipulation, he suddenly felt that he had lost contact with the Caged Bird within Neji's body.

He was horrified; normally, the person bearing the mark should be dead in this situation.

But Neji was standing perfectly fine in front of him.
