Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan

"That's right, the main body can run on its own, let's rest."

"Don't talk, Dad's looking over here."

"And Brother Yun, he'll get beaten up."

"If you're going to run, then don't block my way!"

"You bastard! Why did you push me?"

"Want to fight?"

"Come on, who's afraid of who!"

"Bang bang bang..."

In an instant, the battle between the five shadow clones and the original body began.

This scene left Tokuma and his two companions, who were still training nearby, somewhat bewildered.

Shadow clones... can even fight each other?

Minato's eye twitched at that moment. He exhaled and reminded Naruto, "Naruto, you can undo this technique."

As soon as he finished speaking, in the scene of the brawl, Naruto struggled to release his ninjutsu.

Naruto, his face bruised and swollen, collapsed to the ground, scratched his head, and asked, "Why were they fighting?"

Yun, who was standing nearby, said, "Normally, it's because your control over chakra wasn't up to par when you released the Shadow Clone Technique. Although you successfully released the ninjutsu, this situation is indeed quite ridiculous."

Minato sighed and said, "You must remember the important points about this technique, because if the shadow clones get confused, then the technique won't be very effective."

Yun, who was standing to the side, also pondered for a moment. Was it because he was still young?

Come to think of it, Naruto also had moments of disarray with his Shadow Clone Jutsu, but the first time he used it against Mizuki...

No, when fighting Mizuki, it was a 2,000-shot burst, with only one command: punch and kick, after which they all dissipated.

Moreover, Naruto's will was probably at its strongest under those circumstances.

After a long while, Naruto, having regained his composure, once again used the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique.

This time, although they were all talking over each other, they still managed to run around the training field in a fairly orderly fashion.

Minato returned to Yun's side, smiled, and said, "I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Yun."

Yun shook his head slightly: "After all, it is an A-level difficulty ninjutsu. The fact that he was able to learn it in one go is enough to prove Naruto's talent. But speaking of which... it has already exceeded the limit."

Minato nodded and looked at Naruto, who had run two laps.

The ten shadow clones fought each other for the first time and then dissipated. Naruto was only bruised and battered, but his mental state was normal.

The second time, there were five, and they hadn't dissipated after two laps. But once these shadow clones dissipated on their own, they had already exceeded Naruto's limits at that age.

At this moment, Yun looked in a direction outside the training field, and after thinking for a moment, looked at Minato beside him.

Minato, who witnessed this, laughed awkwardly: "Kushina, this is really quite rude of you."

Yun smiled, glanced at Tokuma who had resumed training not far away, and then said, "The Hokage-sama must have heard about it, right?"

After a pause, Yun continued, "The eldest daughter of the Hyuga clan's main family was sent to the Ninja Academy, while Hanabi, the second daughter of the main family's Hiashi, remained in the clan's territory to receive her education."

"I'm sure the Hokage understands what this means. Of course, the succession of the main family is a matter for the Hyuga clan themselves, and it's none of the Uchiha's business to concern themselves with it."

"But if what Uzumaki Sora said about the future is true, then perhaps I should remind the Hokage."

As soon as he finished speaking, Minato frowned slightly.

He understood the meaning behind Yun's words perfectly.

The conflict between the Hyuga main family and the branch family has a long history. When Hinata was forcibly abducted by Kumogakure, the elders of the main family demanded that Hizashi pay with his life.

If it weren't for the Hiashi and Uchiha clans back then, perhaps...

If Hinata Hyuga really becomes Naruto's wife in the future, then as the eldest daughter who has already been abandoned by Hiashi, she will inevitably be separated from the family.

In this way...

That so-called bird in a cage...

Glancing at Minato's expression beside him, Yun continued, "If we do the math, Hinata Hyuga, who was in the same class as Naruto, should be about eight years old now, right? At that age, she wasn't branded a caged bird, but she was sent to the Ninja Academy..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Minato looked up abruptly, pondered for a moment, and then looked at Yun and said, "Back then, when Hiashi was forced to die in someone else's place, Hiashi's attitude at that time already explained some things."

"Now that things have come to this, perhaps there was some calculation involved in all of this. With Hinata being sent to the Ninja Academy and the heir to the main branch of the clan remaining uncertain, is he also stalling for time?"

Yun shrugged: "The way the Hyuga clan selects its main and branch families has always been a mystery, but if the Hokage is willing, perhaps this generation can resolve this unfair situation?"

"call……"

Minato exhaled and said with a wry smile, "Being the Hokage doesn't mean you can decide everything with a single word. This is an internal matter of the Hyuga clan, and the Hokage has no reason to interfere."

Yun nodded, smiled, and said, "If this old law cannot be changed when both the Hokage and the head of the Hyuga clan oppose it, then the attitude of the next head of the clan may be uncertain."

Despite his relaxed tone, Minato's gaze suddenly turned serious.

The old rules of the Hyuga clan might not have had much to do with him before, but if Hinata Hyuga were to become his daughter-in-law in the future...

Neither Kushina nor I would allow her to be branded with the Caged Bird Seal!

In that case, the relationship becomes much more complex...

As Minato pondered, he suddenly noticed three people sparring not far away. Apart from Yun's sister, the other two children seemed to be from the Hyuga branch family.

In an instant, information about the two men's identities flashed through Minato's mind.

Hyuga Tokuma, hailed as a genius of the Hyuga branch family, possesses a powerful Byakugan, but his brilliance was overshadowed by Yun and Itachi during his time at the academy.

Hyuga Neji, Naruto's previous genius student, is also Hizashi's son.

Thinking of this, Minato looked at Yun and smiled, asking, "Is it for these two students?"

Seeing that Minato had already guessed, Yun smiled and replied, "It's not just about them, or rather, it's for the stability of the village. Unreasonable old laws should naturally be discarded. Although the caged bird did indeed prevent the loss of the white eye, there are other ways to achieve this."

"The Byakugan, one of the three great dojutsu of ninjas, may not be so simple. And if a genius emerges from the branch family and the Caged Bird Seal is broken, then the Hyuga clan will face a disaster."

"If this goes further, it will also be a disaster for Konoha."

As soon as he finished speaking, Minato frowned slightly and asked doubtfully, "Isn't this... a bit too far-fetched?"

"hiss……"

A sudden wave of discomfort in her eye socket made Yun gasp for breath, and then she placed a hand on her eye.

Is it the convergence of Ashura's and Indra's chakra? The power of all things in the universe is being born, but it seems to be much faster than Madara's.

Suddenly, Minato covered his eyes with one hand and quickly asked, "What's wrong? Do you need to go to the hospital?"

After a while, Yun, whose discomfort in her eyes had subsided, raised her head slightly, and her pupils, which were surrounded by a cross and a six-pointed star, began to slowly rotate.

"It's alright. These eyes seem to be evolving due to the issue of bloodline reversion. However... this time it seems to take a long time."

Minato paused, stunned: "Will there be further advancements after the Eternal Eye? Could it be..."

Yun shook her head slightly: "I don't know. I've always passively accepted the changes in my body. What the Hokage wants to ask about is probably the legendary Rinnegan, right?"

Minato nodded: "After all, the Uchiha's ancestor Indra was the son of the Sage of Six Paths, a fact I had previously confirmed."

Yun smiled and replied, "Of the three great eye powers, perhaps the Byakugan isn't out of the question either..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Minato glanced at Yun.

Does the Byakugan truly possess additional potential, just like the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan?

If that's the case, perhaps the village should also consider planning for the Hyuga clan's main family to split up.

……

Meanwhile, outside the seventh training field.

Hinata, hiding behind a tree, clenched her fists, her eyes fixed on Naruto, who was training hard in the training field.

Because of Naruto's actions yesterday, Hinata couldn't sleep most of the night after returning home.

Although he doesn't know what love is yet, Naruto says he wants to protect himself, and he works so hard at it.

I certainly can't fall behind!

Thinking of this, Hinata was preparing to leave and go back to continue her training.

However, at that moment, a hand was placed on her shoulder.

"Are you Hinata?"

In an instant, Hinata, who was already in a tense state, was startled and almost fell over.

Fortunately, Kushina grabbed her arm, then looked at Naruto running laps in the training field and asked with a smile, "Is Hinata watching Naruto?"

Hinata nodded gently, then said softly, "Naruto-kun worked very hard. He told me to resist, to be strong. So..."

Is that so?

Kushina smiled and reached out to ruffle Hinata's hair: "Is it Naruto's actions that gave you confidence? If so, I, as his mother, am also proud of him."

"Mother?"

After a moment of stunned silence, Hinata's murmured voice rang out.

This sound startled Kushina for a moment.

Should I agree or disagree?

Although I knew it was a voice of doubt, it made me feel for a moment as if I really had a daughter-in-law.

Kushina smiled and then joked, "If you really start calling me 'Mom' in the future, then I'll agree to it."

"what?"

Hinata looked up in surprise, then paused for a moment before her face flushed red.

Just now, I...

Kushina looked at Hinata and said, "If you have time, you're welcome to visit our home. If Naruto has caused you any trouble, I apologize on his behalf."

Hinata shook her head repeatedly and replied hastily, "No, Auntie, it won't bother you."

After a pause, Hinata said softly, "Because before, some people would say I was a monster because of my eyes. At that time, Naruto-kun appeared and drove them away. Naruto-kun said... he would take me home from now on..."

A monster with white eyes?
