However, Hyuga Shixiong at the side took over the conversation again and said slowly:

"This caged bird seal is the foundation of our Hyuga clan. It has far-reaching implications and a huge impact.

"As far as I can remember, I have never heard of a caged bird curse being lifted.

“In fact, if everyone knew that this spell could be lifted, then how could we make everyone believe that fate is irresistible?

“Hope, it seems, is a good thing.

"But for us rulers, it is also a truly terrible and difficult matter."

Hyuga Shio said calmly.

He looked at Uchiha Sasuke calmly, his tone steady, without any emotional fluctuations.

"you"

At this moment, facing this great honesty, Uchiha Sasuke was a little overwhelmed.

He looked around, hoping Jiraiya or Inuzuka Tale would say something.

But all these people were silent and could not say a word.

In his lifetime, Uchiha Sasuke never thought that he would say such a thing.

I only heard him angrily scolding:

"Fuck you, this is not the will of fire at all."

After a pause, Sasuke continued to ask:

"In that case, how can we ensure Neji's safety?"

"I also want to know, if a Hyuga branch family is wandering around with a heavy crossbow and resentment in his heart, how can the safety of the Hyuga clan be guaranteed?"

Hinata Shixiong did not give in and asked back.

"I'll tell you how to guarantee it."

Uchiha Sasuke took a step forward, came to the center of the crowd, raised his head proudly and said:

"I must keep Neji alive, and live to see the day when this caged bird completely collapses.

“And I’m a superstitious person. If he were to meet with an accident, or be beaten to death by his enemies, or hang himself in his room, or be struck by lightning, I would blame it all on the Hyuga clan.

“By then, I won’t be polite anymore.

"As for your question."

After a pause, Uchiha Sasuke walked straight to Hyuga Shixiong, pointed the tip of his sword at his chest, and whispered:

"You could have made the same threat to me."

"No. I have a better idea."

Hyuga Shixiong did not give in. He just looked into Uchiha Sasuke's eyes and said slowly:

"Just now, Master Sasuke's speech on all the reforms in the house was truly eye-opening.

“But I’m really curious if you’ll become like me when you’re my age.

“Today, what you young people think is decadent, isn’t it the cutting-edge reforms we once strived for?

"The continuation of the clan and the glory of the family will always outweigh the rash pursuit of an individual.

“I will never change my mind about this.”

After a pause, Hyuga Shixiong turned his head to look at Hyuga Hiashi and said slowly:

“A house is not a big deal, but if I also save the life of an elder, I’m afraid it can buy you some time, right?

"The safety of the Hyuga clan is now in your hands."

Then, without waiting for anyone to react.

I saw that Hiruga Shigeo suddenly leaned forward and immediately bumped into the long sword in Uchiha Sasuke's hand.

There was no fear on his face, instead there was a relieved smile.

He looked directly into Uchiha Sasuke's eyes, as if saying.

See, this is my response to you.

Amid the crowd's exclamations, the tip of the sword instantly pierced through Hinata Shixiong's body.

Blood dripped along the direction of the sword, drop by drop, and dripped into the soil of the Hyuga clan.

Hinata Shixiong's body shook violently, but then returned to calm.

The old man, still in the posture of falling forward, was now sliding down weakly.

Holding the still warm corpse in his arms, Uchiha Sasuke could only feel his heart pounding.

The other party's determination had far exceeded his imagination.

Uchiha Sasuke suppressed his inner shock, drew out the "Kusanagi Sword: Moon Shadow" with one hand, and pushed the old man in front of him away with the other hand.

The setting sun was as red as blood, and the sky was dyed into a picture of orange and red.

The red sun hung in the sky like a huge fireball, emitting a soft and warm light.

Hyuga Shio was lying on his back on the ground, his face as pale as gold paper.

The large bloodstain on the front of the chest appeared dark red in the setting sun.

Many people go towards their fate while they are afraid of it.

But Hyuga Shio stubbornly faced his destiny.

Chapter 271 Who hit her?

When things have reached this point, there is no room for dialogue anymore.

At least, not today.

Jiraiya, the Fifth Hokage, was the first to set off.

I saw him walking forward, solemnly walking past Hinata Shixiong's body with lowered hands, and gently patted Hinata Hinashi's shoulder.

Then, without saying anything, he turned around and left silently.

Inuzukazuma bowed slightly to greet him, followed closely behind Lord Hokage, and walked out together.

Inuzuka Kiba was still in shock. He woke up from a dream when he saw his mother leaving. He quickly followed Akamaru together.

Uchiha Sasuke was about to open his mouth, but he saw Hinata Shio's stern eyes.

He knew that after the other party gave such conditions.

Hyuga Neji's existence has always been like the "Sword of Damos" hanging above the heads of the entire Hyuga clan.

However, the problem of the caged bird has not yet been resolved, leaving many consequences, making it impossible to truly feel at ease.

Today, the Hyuga clan and Hyuga Neji are like two guys with explosives planted in their hearts.

The control buttons for the explosion were exchanged in each other's hands.

Under this situation, each side has a stronger reason to completely destroy the other.

To maintain this delicate balance, you must have yourself as a third party to provide a strong deterrent as a guarantee.

Sasuke knew this truth very well, and he wanted to say some harsh words.

But looking at the corpse on the ground and the dazed Hinata Hiashi opposite him, he still didn't say a word.

Uchiha Sasuke was in a complicated mood. After hesitating for a moment, he finally followed everyone and turned around to leave.

Hyuga Neji said nothing and followed Sasuke expressionlessly.

At this time, he was like a machine that had completely blocked his emotions, completely following Uchiha Sasuke.

"Sasuke-sama."

Just as everyone was leaving, Hinata Hizu opened his mouth again.

His voice, the calmness that once had everything under control, has completely disappeared.

At this moment, the voice is becoming low and hoarse, like dead leaves falling in the autumn wind, carrying endless desolation and sadness.

"My little girl, Hinata Hanabi, her safety is in danger. Please, please."

Hinata Hiashi tried hard to choose his words, but didn't know how to express himself.

Hearing this, Jiraiya stopped first. He stared at Uchiha Sasuke in surprise, and then the surprise in his eyes gradually turned into helplessness.

On the side, Inuzuka Claw also glanced at Uchiha Sasuke with slight surprise.

Only Hyuga Neji remained expressionless, with his head lowered, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"I understand, don't worry."

Uchiha Sasuke nodded and answered briefly.

After a pause, Sasuke seemed to have remembered something, and deliberately added:

“Hanabi will then escort you back safe and sound.

"Then, let's take Neji away."

After all, the triggering of system rewards is sometimes very harsh.

"well"

Hinata Hiashi nodded slowly, looking distraught.

Everyone filed out.

As soon as they walked out of the gate of the Hyuga clan, Inuzukazuma and her son said goodbye and left very wisely.

After everything that happened today, they completely sided with Jiraiya's camp.

After all, having a core of leadership that can stand in line for two consecutive terms at the same time is not a bad thing no matter how you look at it.

And such opportunities don't come often.
