Naruto: From Capturing the Main Clan to Becoming the Mastermind

Chapter 34 What are you hesitating about?

However, most resurrection ninjutsu in the ninja world involve exchanging lives for lives, and therefore lack universal applicability.

But the splitting technique is different...

It has a learning curve, but anyone can learn it, and once you master it, the number of eye-rolls you can get can double!

It was of immense help to his research on the Tenseigan.

There are about 700 ninja from the branch family and 30 from the main family.

Although there seem to be many, there aren't actually that many Byakugan, because there are certain conditions for opening the Byakugan. Perhaps it's not as strict as the Sharingan, but it requires constant training and practice to open.

Including the two Shinobi World Wars less than ten years apart, many of the branch family's Byakugan-awakening ninjas died, leaving the Hyuga clan with only about four hundred Byakugan pairs remaining.

Unlike the Otsutsuki on the moon, they are born with the Byakugan and do not need to train.

Therefore, if the number of members in the Otsutsuki branch family on the Moon was roughly the same as that in the Hyuga branch family...

Xiang Yu may only have one chance to advance to the Tenseigan that day!

The quantity of quantitative changes leading to qualitative changes is difficult to control, and the number of Byakugan required for the evolution of the Reincarnation Eye is unknown. Whether an individual's Byakugan evolution to a certain stage will only require Byakugan power is also unknown.

In order to have any chance of making amends, increasing the amount of white eyes stored up is a must!

The safest approach would be to first create a giant Tenseigan, a successful example, and then go directly to the moon to steal Otsutsuki Toneri for research.

After all, that person only needed a pair of Hyuga Byakugan to evolve the Tenseigan, which is too special.

Thinking about it, Hyuga Yu looked at Tsunade. From the beginning of his research until now, all he had done was develop a splitting technique that humans could use.

With the Slug Sage's full assistance, there's no way this is all the product...

Upon closer inspection, Hyuga noticed that Tsunade's expression was complex, with a look in her eyes that was hard to tell whether it was pity or sorrow.

"Your ancestors left no room for the caged bird to break free."

"That thing is connected to your optic nerves and brain nerves, and it also restricts you with your own chakra. Unless you sever all the nerve connections at the same time and stop the chakra supply, rashly using medical ninjutsu to break it will only result in death."

"Your ancestors never left you a way out from the very beginning; they only gave you a dead end!"

"However, they probably didn't expect that the ninja world has developed for hundreds of years, giving rise to many strange ninjutsu and forbidden techniques, which just happen to be able to solve it."

If you can accept that, the second generation grandfather's Edo Tensei is also acceptable.

Lost in thought, Tsunade suddenly let out a disdainful laugh.

"Do you feel hopeless? Resentful of your ancestors and caged birds? Divide yourself, it's not something an ordinary person can learn."

The Second Tsuchikage defined it as only an A-rank ninjutsu, yet no one from Iwagakure has learned it again to this day.

Even if she used slug cells to create that drug, she couldn't guarantee a success rate...

"no."

Hyuga's calm voice interrupted Tsunade's thoughts, "Thank you for clearing up my doubts, Lady Tsunade. But the reason you're willing to tell me is essentially because I have the Caged Bird Seal. Besides, the Caged Bird Seal did help me on the battlefield."

Even without the Caged Bird Seal, he would still face the same treatment from the main branch of the family on the battlefield, and the Caged Bird Seal was also a prerequisite for him to establish a deal with Orochimaru.

There are gains and losses in everything, just as he told Jiuxin, he doesn't hate the caged bird. Compared to the various disadvantages, this technique brought him more benefits in the early stages.

Tsunade paused, giving him a disapproving look. "These kids aren't cute at all these days."

That's right, the reason she was willing to tell Hinata Hare, besides the Fourth Hokage's trust in her, was primarily because of the Caged Bird Seiyuu.

After winning the bet with Hiashi, Tsunade actually suspected that the Hyuga main family was doing something behind the scenes, because she had just completed the splitting technique and the potion, and the Hyuga main family would definitely not be happy about the existence of such a thing.

As for the branch family... she, who can activate the Caged Bird Seal, is not worried about what trouble the Hyuga branch family might cause.

After all, only she knows the Split Technique, and even the old man didn't give it to her. The branch family ninjas can't get it from her, so why worry?

"You've ruined my gambling interest. Just one round, you can go home now."

Before Hyuga Yu could agree, Tsunade started shaking the dice. Her hand moved through the air like a blur before she slammed the dice cup down on the table.

"Big or small?"

Hinata Yu narrowed his eyes, stared quietly for a moment, and then softly uttered the answer:

"big!"

……

Tsunade left with mixed feelings.

She kept losing today and didn't know whether she should be happy or not.

Nothing bad happened, so we should be happy, right?

Forget it, I'll stop gambling for now.

Does what's happening in Konoha right now have anything to do with her?

If she really had to worry, she felt she should be worried about Jiraiya and Orochimaru on the front lines, since the intelligence the Third Hokage showed her indicated that the force deployed by Kirigakure was terrifying.

How come I never noticed before that this isolated overseas ninja village possesses war potential that is in no way inferior to Konoha... I hope Orochimaru and the others are alright.

Hinata Yu sat in the izakaya until the owner asked him to leave, then he got up and strolled away.

"What strange eyes, like a monster."

"A white-eyed monster?"

"She looked blank, just sitting there staring into thin air. She must be blind. I saw her in the hospital; she's blind and can't see."

In the park, three children were pointing and whispering about a little girl named Hinata, even discussing various bad ideas in hushed tones.

"I've seen her brother before; he's a big, white-eyed demon. Can't you see him either?"

"It should be."

"What if we do something to her? Her brother probably won't know, right? Like, throw some sand in her eyes?"

"That's a bit much..."

The little boy, who was saying something excessive, had already grabbed a handful of sand from the park's sandy area and was looking at the little girl with eager anticipation.

"You really want to try it, don't you? A little sand in a blind person's eye shouldn't be a problem, since they're already blind anyway."

"Didn't the ninja academy instructors tell us to learn more about human weaknesses? This is a great opportunity."

The boy who was leading the group walked towards the little girl first, and before she could react, he pushed her to the ground.

Eh?

"What are you going to do?"

The little girl slumped to the ground, looking at the group in panic. She had only been waiting for her brother; she hadn't done anything to annoy them.

"Isn't it visible?" The two looked at their knowing companion, then looked away as the latter glared at them angrily. "Can you see things with only the whites of your eyes?"

"I don't know, the teacher doesn't teach these things in class. I can study it, it might give me some experience when I encounter enemies in the future."

"Hmph, since there's no one around, I'll just throw some sand in her eyes and see if she can see it."

The boy, annoyed by his companion's doubt about his intelligence, looked at the helpless girl sitting on the ground and gave her a malicious smile.

He brought his hand, holding sand, closer and closer to the girl's eyes. She subconsciously gathered chakra in her palm, but quickly stopped.

If he hurts them or causes trouble outside, my brother will be punished by the clan elders...

Thinking of this, and looking at the hand so close to hers, the girl closed her eyes in fear.

"Hahaha, what's the use of closing your eyes?"

As the boy spoke, he tried to pry open her eyes, but suddenly found a shadow looming over him, as if it had suddenly gotten dark.

His two other companions were so frightened that they fell to the ground.

"Jonin..."

Looking back at Hyuga Yu, who was wearing a Jonin vest, and especially noticing that the other person's eyes were exactly the same as the girl's, the boy felt his legs go weak.

Could he be the girl's brother?

At this moment, the boy's two companions had already gotten up and were running home in a panic, leaving him alone.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, I just... I just..."

He struggled for a long time but couldn't utter a complete sentence.

Hinata Yu merely glanced at him before looking at the Hinata girl who had opened her eyes and was looking at him with surprise.

"Brother Yu!"

Hinata Yu nodded, her tone calm, "From now on, stay with your brother and don't be outside alone."

"Um... thank you, Brother Yu."

The girl glanced at the boy who was bowing his head and apologizing, still feeling a bit shaken.

From now on, we should go out less. I've heard my brother say before that their eyes are different from those of ordinary villagers, and some children see them as "monsters."

I can't believe it's true...

Seeing that Hinata Yu didn't react, the boy tentatively took a step forward. When he still didn't react, he ran away in a hurry.

Then another person appeared in front of us.

White eyes, a ninja headband, and a face similar to a girl's.

Is this her brother?

The boy turned pale, and as he recalled what he had done, his vision went black, and he fainted.

Without looking at the boy either, Hinata Yuuki stepped forward, took the girl's hand, and said earnestly to Yu:

"Thank you, Senior Yu."

Hinata Yu ignored his thanks and walked straight past Yuuki, a soft whisper landing on the other's heart.

"How long are you going to hesitate? Konoha doesn't welcome us."

Because of their coldness and problems with the security force, the Uchiha clan was regarded as wolves and tigers by the villagers and was not well-liked.

Would it be better if the Hyuga family split up?

How can the Hyuga branch family, with their perpetually expressionless and cold demeanor, get along with the villagers?

Some Hyuga children even developed a submissive personality due to the punishment methods used by the main family in the past.

Being bullied... is only to be expected.

The Hyuga branch family did not integrate into Konoha.

Konoha didn't try to accept them either.

So, what is he hesitating about?

His empty hand clenched involuntarily, and Hyuga Yuuki looked up at the setting sun, his expression complex.
