"At first, I didn't believe it and thought there must be a misunderstanding. I was relieved to learn that Sasuke had come to discuss this with you.

"I just thought that if there were any problems, we could just talk about them. But I didn't expect that."

After Inuzuka Kiba finished speaking, Jiraiya immediately took over and spoke to Hinata Hiashi.

As he spoke, the temperature in his words became colder and colder.

Until the very end, he was as cold and ruthless as a polar glacier, which made people shudder and unable to look directly into his icy eyes.

At this point, Hyuga Hiashi no longer maintained his dignity.

He was completely upset and snorted coldly:

"So, is this a trap that Master Hokage and his apprentice set up for my Hyuga clan?

"Think about my Hyuga clan. We have been dedicated to our duties and devoted ourselves to Konoha for many years. Today, Lord Hokage, you easily drew a conclusion based on the one-sided statement of this Uchiha boy. It is really hard to convince everyone.

"Right now, the ninja world is in chaos and the country is in crisis. This is the time when we need to unite as one!

"Yes, you are Uchiha Sasuke's master, but I have to remind you that you are also the Hokage of the entire Konoha!

"I will never tolerate your favoritism. The important things in the village should be based on the ninja world, not personal feelings.

"If, Hokage, you only trust your confidants and ignore other capable and loyal companions, I am afraid that it will hurt everyone's feelings and will cause the Hidden Leaf Village to fall into chaos!"

"So, Lord Hiashi is threatening me?"

Faced with Hyuga Hiashi's righteous words, Jiraiya couldn't help but narrow his eyes and asked slowly.

"I dare not! But, it is just based on the words of Uchiha Sasuke. Besides."

Hinata Hiashi looked coldly at Inuzuka Kiba, who was standing beside him. The hatred in his eyes could no longer be concealed. He continued:

"It's just the empty testimony of a young boy like this. It's really unconvincing!"

Hearing this, Jiraiya pondered inwardly.

On the side, Uchiha Sasuke was about to say something, when suddenly, a rough female voice came from above the eaves again:

"So, what about me?"

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a female ninja with a determined face riding a huge ninja dog, slowly showing her head above the eaves.

The ninja dog leaped down and landed lightly among the crowd.

I saw that the right eye of this ninja dog was covered with an eye patch, and it looked like a wolf.

The fur is black all over the back, but there is a patch of white fur on the chest, which is called "black pill".

Inuzuka Tsumugi, the patriarch of the Inuzuka clan, skillfully jumped off the back of the ninja dog.

She stood in front of her son Inuzuka Kiba to protect him, looking at Hinata Hiashi with a firm gaze.

Like a solid fortress, he faced the man in front of him who was known as the patriarch of the strongest clan in Konoha without fear.

"Inuzuka claw, you..."

Seeing this person appear, Hinata Hiashi was shocked.

In my mind, my judgment of this incident has undergone a major upgrade and adjustment.

Three hours ago.

Konoha, Hokage Building, in Hokage's office.

Faced with Jiraiya's invitation, Inuzuka Kiba backed out.

He could promise Sasuke to give false testimony on his behalf in front of the Hokage.

But he did not have the courage to accompany the Hokage to confront the Hyuga clan.

"What? What if this is an order?"

Jiraiya continued to press.

Under the heavy pressure, Inuzuka Kiba finally couldn't hold on any longer. He made a vicious "tsk" sound and said loudly:

"Reporting to Lord Hokage, I just lied. It is true that the other party pretended to be Hyuga Neji, but he did not make any attempt to assassinate Uchiha Sasuke.

"At that time, Sasuke had completely controlled him, but for some reason, he still killed him in the end.

"I know that the killing of ninjas from the same village is an unforgivable crime. I am also to blame for this incident. I will never shirk all the responsibilities that should be borne!"

Jiraiya stared at the boy in front of him thoughtfully for a long time, then slowly stood up, walked in front of Inuzuka Kiba, and whispered:

"So, what made you agree to lie?"

"It's me. I don't want to be implicated."

Faced with the gentle question from the Hokage, Inuzuka Kiba lost his previous toughness and couldn't help but feel a little flustered.

"anything else?"

Jiraiya asked in a persuasive manner:

"Did Sasuke promise you anything?"

Inuzuka Kiba lowered his head and clenched his fists involuntarily.

His knuckles turned white from the exertion, his arm muscles were tense, and his entire body seemed to be under great stress and tension.

"It's all right. You can talk as much as you want."

Jiraiya continued to persuade.

All I heard was Inuzuka Kiba whispering:

"fair."

After saying these two words, Inuzuka Kiba seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

He raised his head again, looked directly into the Hokage's eyes, and said seriously:

"It's fair among the major families."

"Ha. Hahahaha. Good. Very good!"

Hearing this, Jiraiya laughed heartily.

In his heart, he couldn't help but love his disciple who bore the fate of being the "Son of Prophecy" even more.

"child.

"Once the bow is drawn, there is no turning back."

After Jiraiya finished laughing, he spoke to Inuzuka Kiba in a meaningful manner.

However, Inuzuka Kiba's mind finally came to its senses at this moment.

He spoke to Jiraiya clearly:

"Hokage, the loyalty of our Inuzuka clan to Konoha is known to all. However, this matter is of great importance, and I must report it to my mother first."

"As it should be."

Jiraiya nodded and answered seriously.

"Then I'll wait here for you to come back."

The two said goodbye immediately, and Inuzuka Kiba quickly left the Hokage Building and returned to the Inuzuka clan's camp.

However, what Inuzuka Kiba expected was beyond his imagination.

After hearing his own retelling, Inuzuka Tsume immediately agreed to the Hokage's request without any hesitation.

Moreover, he secretly followed him and others and appeared in this place together.

"To be honest with you, my son and I witnessed what happened today.

"I didn't come out because I wanted to save your face."

Inuzuka Tsumugi straightened her back and held her head high, as if declaring her determination and courage to the whole world.

Her voice was firm and powerful as she spoke loudly:

"Although my Inuzuka clan is small, we are not the target of arbitrary bullying. You are a grown man, dare to do it, but you don't dare to take responsibility?!"

Chapter 269 Hob Meat

"well"

The appearance of the leader of the Inuzuka clan finally weakened Hinata and Hinashi's momentum.

He knew that what happened today had already turned the tide.

It is no longer a situation that can be resisted.

But fortunately, the scope of the situation was still limited to between himself and this Uchiha kid.

In Nizu's view, there is still considerable opportunity to seek relaxation before the scope is further expanded.

Hinata Hiashi pondered for a long time, and under the gaze of everyone, he bowed deeply to the Hokage and said:

“The poisoning incident was indeed a misunderstanding.

"Young talents like Uchiha Sasuke are the common wealth of our Hidden Leaf Village. We love and protect them before it's too late, so how can we murder them?

"Perhaps, when the tea was served earlier, Lord Sasuke happened to be unwell. There must be some misunderstanding, as you said before, Lord Hokage."

After he finished speaking, he saw that Jiraiya was still expressionless.

Hinata Hiashi immediately shouted loudly:

"Tokuma!"

Not far away, after hearing the call, Hyuga Tokuma walked forward quickly and listened to the order.

"Open your Byakugan immediately and find the tea residue that Sasuke-sama just drank behind this ruin."

After finishing speaking, Hinata Hizashi humbly faced Jiraiya again and said:

"If Hokage-sama still has doubts, we can find traces of the tea leaves in the ruins and hand them over to the medical department for examination and testing. Then you will know that what I said is true."

Not long after, Hyuga Tokuma actually found the fragments of the teacup among the ruins. He wrapped them carefully and handed them to Hyuga Hizashi.
