Hinata: I'm in charge of Konoha.

The atmosphere seemed to freeze at that moment. Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Hiashi Hyuga in front of him, as if trying to find a hint of a joke on the other's face.

but……

No.

Hiashi Hyuga is serious.

He truly wanted to obtain the Flying Thunder God Technique and the Mutual Multiplication Explosion Talisman for his six-year-old daughter.

"Hiashi, these two are both S-rank techniques in the village."

"You should understand the danger involved. Letting a six-year-old child learn this level of technique is like throwing Hinata into a fire full of explosive tags."

"One wrong move and you could lose your life."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's voice carried a hint of warning.

"I know that I will personally supervise Hinata's training in these two techniques."

"I hope the Hokage will grant my request."

"I, Hiashi Hyuga, am willing to exchange the war merits of the Hyuga clan since the founding of Konoha for these two techniques."

Hiashi Hyuga responded to Hiruzen Sarutobi's words with neither arrogance nor servility.

These words caused Hiruzen Sarutobi to pause in his speech.

The Hyuga clan's military achievements since the founding of Konoha...

Because the Hyuga clan has always sought stability and adhered to the principle of not vying for power or profit, the Hyuga clan's accumulated military achievements in Konoha have reached a terrifying level.

If the Hyuga clan wanted to use this achievement to exchange for a Hokage assistant position, it would be more than enough.

The Hokage's assistant has the authority to mobilize the village's resources.

He can be considered to be on par with Danzo Shimura, the leader of Konoha's Root, Homura Mitokado, an elder of Konoha, and Koharu Utatane!

Moreover, it's just a matter of exchanging for the Flying Thunder God Technique and the Mutual Multiplication Explosive Tags.

Compared to the Uchiha clan, which was ostracized by the Konoha leadership, and many other ninja clans such as Inuzuka, Aburame, and Ino-Shika-Cho, the Hyuga clan was bound to participate in the First, Second, and Third Shinobi World Wars.

Any battlefield can exist without the Uchiha, the Ino-Shika-Cho trio, or the Aburame and Inuzuka clans, but it cannot exist without the Hyuga.

White eyes.

This eye technique, coveted by many forces in the ninja world, is the reason why the Hyuga clan appears on the battlefield so frequently.

With 360-degree coverage, perception beyond visual range, and unobstructed vision, this is the most powerful weapon on the battlefield.

At the same time, it also has the ability to see the flow of chakra, an ability that allows users of the Byakugan to ignore most genjutsu in the ninja world.

Therefore, even genjutsu ninjas cannot interfere with the Byakugan.

Even though Ao of Kirigakure didn't have any remarkable achievements, he immediately rose to fame simply by luck obtaining a Byakugan from the Hyuga main family.

This is the true value of the Hyuga Byakugan.

"Hisashi is exaggerating."

When Hiruzen Sarutobi saw that Hiashi Hyuga had gone to such lengths, he couldn't help but speak up to comfort him.

"It's just the Flying Thunder God Technique and the Mutual Multiplication Explosive Tags."

"Even if Hiashi doesn't exchange it for battle merits, I can still do you a favor based on Hyuga's contributions to the village."

The Hyuga clan is one of the most important and indispensable ninja clans in Konoha.

Moreover, the Hyuga clan has always been law-abiding, and now that the current clan leader wants to obtain two techniques from the village for his daughter, Hiruzen Sarutobi has no reason to disagree.

"In that case, thank you, Hokage-sama."

Seeing this, Hyuga Hiashi breathed a sigh of relief and then bowed to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"You're too polite, but..."

"I still want to ask, is Hinata really capable of performing those two techniques?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression hardened slightly.

Leaving aside the multiplication of detonating tags, the Flying Thunder God Technique is a technique that extremely tests talent and comprehension.

Even Hiruzen Sarutobi himself hadn't mastered this technique concerning the realm of space and time.

After him, neither Sakumo Hatake, the White Fang of Konoha, nor Orochimaru, Jiraiya, nor Tsunade, who were once known as the Legendary Sannin of Konoha, were able to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Until the appearance of Minato Namikaze, the Golden Flash.

This shows that the Flying Thunder God Technique requires extremely high talent and aptitude from the user.

Hiashi Hyuga's visit was actually to ask for the Flying Thunder God Technique and the Mutual Explosion Tags for six-year-old Hinata.

Does this mean...?

In Hiashi Hyuga's view, his daughter is capable of mastering the Flying Thunder God Technique?!

Back then, Minato Namikaze almost completely maneuvered on the battlefield of the Third Shinobi World War using the Flying Thunder God Technique, winning this war that affected the entire shinobi world for Konoha.

Now that the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, has passed away, if Konoha could produce another user of the Flying Thunder God Technique...

Hiruzen Sarutobi was unaware of the true extent of Hiashi Hyuga's daughter's talent.

However, Hiruzen Sarutobi believed that Hiashi Hyuga was not the kind of person who would spoil his daughter excessively simply because he doted on her.

Hiruzen Sarutobi believed more in Hiashi Hyuga's judgment than in Hinata's ability to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Whether Hinata can learn these two techniques or not is not important.

"The important thing is that this is the first time Hinata has asked me, her father, for help."

Hiashi Hyuga spoke slowly, which made Hiruzen Sarutobi's eye twitch.

So you're just spoiling your daughter!

You're such a doting father!

"Hiashi, I'd like to try and make contact with Hinata, what do you think?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed inwardly. Regardless of Hinata Hyuga's talent, he had to give her those two techniques today.

Just like when Hinata first asked him, her father, for a favor, today is also the first time the Hyuga clan has made a request to the village.

"Of course, if the Hokage wishes to see Hinata, then it's possible anytime."

Hiashi Hyuga nodded slightly.

"In that case... I'll leave it to you..."

Ninja Academy

"Ouch, that hurts!"

"That violent woman really showed no mercy!"

In the classroom, Kiba Inuzuka rubbed his swollen face and complained.

"Kiba, you'd better not go looking for trouble with Hinata. You can't beat her."

A chubby little boy carrying a bag of potato chips came over and offered some advice.

"Did I cause her trouble?"

"She's the one who started bothering me—no, she's the one causing trouble for everyone!"

Upon hearing the chubby boy's words, Kiba Inuzuka immediately retorted angrily.

He was going to fight that violent woman one-on-one for everyone's sake!

That Choji guy actually made sarcastic remarks!

That's so unfair!

"And Naruto too!"

"Why didn't you tell me yesterday how powerful that violent woman was!"

Seeing that Choji had stopped talking and continued eating potato chips, Kiba Inuzuka transferred his anger to Naruto next to him.

"I did tell you, but it was too late. You got defeated in one move."

Naruto pursed his lips.

"you!"

When Naruto touched a nerve, Kiba Inuzuka was so angry that he couldn't speak.

"Choji is right. Hinata Hyuga is too strong. We are no match for her. If you ask me, we should just go to sleep."

The pineapple-headed boy behind Kiba Inuzuka, yawning while leaning on his desk, chimed in.

While the boys were talking amongst themselves, little did they know that a dark-haired boy not far away was listening intently to their conversation.

Sasuke recalled his father's instructions at dinner the previous night and felt a pang of sorrow.

Oh well, I've already decided to consider Hinata Hyuga as a rival anyway, so I might as well get used to it in advance.

After school in the afternoon, he announced to everyone that he wanted to duel with her!
