Konoha: Starting with the Tenseigan, taking over Team 7

The office door was pushed open, and an elderly man covered in bandages walked into the office, leaning on a cane.

This person was none other than Shimura Danzo.

With only one eye visible, Shimura Danzo looked down indifferently at Sarutobi Hiruzen and questioned, "Sarutobi, why did you hand over the Nine-Tails to Hyuga Sogetsu?"

"Hyuga Sogetsu's personality is dangerous, and he may very well become a threat to the village in the future."

Danzo Shimura's voice was low, and a dangerous glint flashed in his eyes. "The Nine-Tails' container should be handed over to my Root for management."

He believed that although the Nine-Tails was dangerous, it could also become a humanoid weapon to protect the village, so the Nine-Tails' container should be handed over to the Root of the Anbu for strict management.

Hiruzen Sarutobi exhaled a puff of pale smoke, adjusted his Hokage hat, and said in a deep voice, "Danzo, I am the Hokage. This is a decision made in the name of the Hokage. Naruto also needs to grow. Hyuga Sogetsu is very strong!"

"If we hand Naruto over to you to manage, it will cause a lot of dissatisfaction. Don't bring this up again." Hiruzen Sarutobi clearly understood that Naruto Uzumaki had too many people on his side.

Such as Kakashi Hatake, Jiraiya (one of the Legendary Sannin), and many other ninjas who once followed the Fourth Hokage.

Danzo Shimura said in a deep voice, "We should have entrusted Hyuga Sogetsu and the Nine-Tails' vessel to me in the first place. Letting Hyuga Sogetsu, this ninja who does whatever he wants, will create many potential dangers."

He wanted Hyuga Sogetsu's Tenseigan and wanted to use it to protect the village's safety.

Hiruzen Sarutobi warned, "Get out of here. Don't ever try to mess with Hyuga Sogetsu again. That brat... his personality and strength are both dangerous."

He knew very well that Hyuga Sogetsu was not as easy to talk to as he seemed.

Judging from past events, Hyuga Sogetsu is a ninja who can watch his enemies struggle hysterically with a smile.

"Sarutobi, you'll regret this!" Shimura Danzo gave Sarutobi a deep look, then turned and left the Hokage's office.

When I become Hokage, I will show everyone with my actions that I am the true Hokage who can protect the village!

Chapter 5: Do you want me to inherit the Hyuga clan?

The Hyuga clan residence.

Inside the retro-style dojo.

"Tell me, what do you want from me?" Hyuga Sogetsu sat on the windowsill, sipping sake and gazing at the moon.

"I heard you've become the teacher of Class 7? Cang Yue, you're doing a great job." The Hyuga clan member sat cross-legged, his posture very rigid and dignified, looking at Hyuga Cang Yue with a serious expression.

Hyuga Sogetsu rarely interfered in village affairs before, but now he has taken the initiative to take over Team 7 and participate in some village matters, which makes Hiashi very gratified.

"That's it? If there's nothing else, I'll be going now. I have no interest in chatting with men." Hyuga Sogetsu glanced at Hiashi with disdain.

Instead of getting angry, the Hyuga clan laughed loudly and said, "Hahaha, you're the only one in the Hyuga clan who dares to talk to me like that."

Many members of the Hyuga clan are afraid of him, their clan leader. He is also very rigid and believes that it is essential to distinguish between superiors and subordinates.

Unfortunately, Hiashi Hyuga had no way to deal with Aoki.

"crunch-"

The door to the dojo was slowly pushed open, and a petite and pretty figure walked into the dojo with her delicate white feet.

Hinata Hyuga bowed slightly and greeted him respectfully, "Father."

She was afraid of Hiashi Hyuga, but also respected him as the clan leader.

"Yes, please sit down." Hiashi Hyuga nodded slightly.

"Yo, Hinata." A faint laugh echoed throughout the hall.

"Eh?" Hinata Hyuga was slightly taken aback and turned to look at the place where the voice came from. What came into view was the handsome and refined face of Cang Yue.

"Cang...Cang...Cangyue...Brother." Hinata Hyuga's cute face flushed red, and she greeted him shyly as she intertwined two fingers together.

She gets shy every time she sees Cang Yue; even just saying a word makes her heart race and she gets very nervous.

Hinata herself couldn't understand why she would get nervous when she saw Aozuki.

"It's been a few months since I last saw you. You've gotten a lot stronger, and you've developed very well too." Hyuga Sogetsu stroked his chin, carefully examining Hinata, and then nodded slightly in satisfaction.

Although Hinata is currently a very petite loli type, she's incredibly fast when it comes to physical development!

Hinata Hyuga intertwined her fingers, shyly muttering, "No...no...no, compared to...Cangyue-nii, I...I'm still far behind."

Hinata Sogetsu feigned arrogance and chuckled confidently, "There's no need to compare with me. After all, few can rival me in terms of strength. As a fine young man, I like to tell the truth."

Although it seems pretentious, he was telling the truth.

To be on par with him, one would need to at least demonstrate abilities at the sixth level.

"It's amazing you could even hear what my daughter was saying." Hiashi Hyuga's lips twitched slightly as he couldn't help but mutter a complaint. He hadn't heard a single word Hinata was saying.

Hyuga Sogetsu waved his hand, feigning a disgusted attitude, and said, "I understand, I understand, it's normal to get old."

"Ahem, anyway, let's get back to the main topic." Hyuga Hiashi coughed lightly.

“Cangyue, almost no one can surpass you in strength. Even I, the clan leader, must admit that you are stronger than me now.”

Hiashi Hyuga said seriously with a straight face, "Even in the entire ninja world, you are a very prestigious ninja, and your reputation can even be compared with the legendary Sannin."

“Wait, I need to correct something.” Hyuga Sogetsu took a sip of sake, looked at Hyuga Hiashi calmly, and said seriously, “Am I stronger than you now? Wrong, I was already stronger than you when I was eight years old.”

Hinata Hyuga stole a glance at Cang Yue and muttered softly, "Cang...Cang Yue...brother, so...so amazing."

If only I could be as amazing as Brother Cangyue...

Hyuga Sogetsu patted Hinata's head and said with a light laugh, "I'm pretty good, aren't I? You can praise me more, okay?"

"Eh!" Hinata Hyuga, after being patted on the head, took a few steps back in a fluster, like a startled rabbit, her face turning even redder.

Hiashi Hyuga glared at Sogetsu and snapped, "Stop fooling around, we're talking serious business!"

He knew, of course, that Cang Yue was already more powerful than him, the clan leader, when she was eight years old.

After all, when Cang Yue was only eight years old, his mere burst of chakra had already shaken the entire Hyuga clan.

Literally, physical vibration.

The houses were all destroyed in the earthquake, and it took a lot of money to rebuild them.

Hiashi Hyuga said in a deep voice, "Cangyue, become the clan leader. With your abilities, you will surely be able to lead the Hyuga clan to the top."

"The Hyuga clan, which values ​​bloodlines highly, has started giving out positions of clan leader indiscriminately. How can someone born into a branch family like me be worthy of this responsibility?" Hyuga Sogetsu toyed with the sake bottle, his words carrying a hidden meaning.

"You brat, we're all on the same side, so don't try to be sarcastic with me." Hiashi Hyuga shook his head with a wry smile. He knew that Aoki's words were loaded with meaning and were clearly meant to be sarcastic.

Hyuga Sogetsu said calmly, "Clan rules are clan rules, and the branch family is the branch family. Logically speaking, Hinata should become the clan head in the future."

"I...I...I..." Hinata Hyuga stammered, unable to finish her sentence.

"Hinata is weak-willed, and her strength and talent are both mediocre. She is even far surpassed by Neji from the branch family. If she were to become the head of the Hyuga clan, many elders would oppose it." Hyuga Hiashi's voice was low, and he spoke the truth without any pretense.

Hinata Hyuga lowered her head, biting her lip lightly with her teeth. She knew that no one in the clan expected her to make changes, and no one would agree with her as a candidate for clan leader.

Hyuga Sogetsu glanced at Hinata beside him, and seeing her state, he sighed inwardly. He raised his hand to pat Hinata's head and said with a smile, "Don't pay attention to the gossip of the useless people in the clan. Be confident, you've already tried your best."

“Brother Cangyue…” Hinata Hyuga felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She used to be very weak and insecure. When no one in the Hyuga clan recognized her, it was Cangyue who encouraged her to accept her.

And Cangyue's confident smile became something Hinata longed for.

Hiashi Hyuga said with a straight face, "This little bit of effort is useless."

Hyuga Sogetsu waved his hand confidently and said, "It's alright, it's alright. With me here, there's no problem. After Hinata marries me and I become the head of the Hyuga clan, will anyone dare to gossip behind my back then?"

"Hmm, that makes sense." Hiashi Hyuga nodded slightly, then looked at Aoki with a hint of surprise, "Hmm?"

This brat laid all that groundwork beforehand, it turns out he was just waiting for him here!

Even he, the dignified head of the Hyuga clan, almost got caught up in it.

Hyuga Sogetsu teased, "Right, Father-in-law?"

"To...to...become Cangyue-nii's bride?" Hinata Hyuga's face turned bright red, her eyes filled with shyness. She was so shy that steam was practically rising from her little head.

"Nonsense, you brat, all you do is joke around." Hiashi Hyuga glared at Sogetsu with annoyance.

Cang Yue was probably joking; after all, with his carefree attitude, few people could tell what Cang Yue was thinking.

But if Hinata could really marry Aoki, that would be an absolutely wonderful thing.

After all, Cang Yue has the strength, the brains, and the personality... she has the strength too.

"In short, I have no interest in being the clan leader. You old bones should still be able to hold your own, right? We'll find someone more capable later." Hyuga Sogetsu got up to leave, but as soon as he opened the dojo door, he paused slightly and turned to look at Hyuga Hinata.

Hinata Sogetsu, feigning a creepy uncle attitude, chuckled and teased, "I'm going to the bathroom, Hinata, want to come along?"

"You know, many female ninjas in the village dream of being with a top-tier handsome guy like me. This time, I'll make an exception and treat you to it for free."

"Eh? I...I..." Hinata stammered, unable to get a coherent answer. Her face was flushed red, like a ripe apple, and steam seemed to rise from her head. Finally, she fainted from embarrassment.

"Hahaha, how cute!" Hinata Sogetsu turned around and left, laughing loudly.

Hiashi Hyuga's face darkened, and he slammed his hand heavily on the ground, causing cracks to appear. He roared angrily, "Sogetsu, you brat!"

That brat Cang Yue went too far! He actually dared to flirt with his daughter right in front of her father, making her faint from embarrassment.

That's so self-centered!

Is Chapter 6 late, or a test?

early morning.

A white mist hung in the air, and the air was slightly cool.

The sun slowly rose into the sky, its pale golden rays parting the morning mist and illuminating every inch of the world.

Today, all the genin in the village were very happy. Everyone was full of anticipation and excitedly left their homes.

Because today is the day they officially become ninjas!

Of course, Class 7 is an exception.

"So cold, so hungry, so thirsty, so sleepy, I just want to go home and eat instant noodles." Naruto Uzumaki lay on the ground, wriggling like an eel, his eyes rolled back in his head, his face filled with anxiety, his lips cracked from lack of water, and he looked quite disheveled.

He woke up at four o'clock, which scared him so much that he ran all the way, afraid that he would miss something very important because he was late. What if he was stripped of his genin status because he was late?

But never expected.

After Naruto Uzumaki rushed to the meeting point, he couldn't even see Hyuga Sogetsu!

That's right, Hinata Sogetsu, as the teacher of Team 7, was late for the first day!

With his hands in his pockets and leaning against a tree trunk, Sasuke Uchiha glanced indifferently at Naruto Uzumaki and coldly mocked, "Idiot."

Naruto Uzumaki said weakly, "What are you bragging about? I can tell you're starving too, aren't you?"

He hasn't eaten a single bite of food or even drunk a drop of water since yesterday!

Sasuke Uchiha slightly raised his chin, his cold smile revealing a hint of arrogance. "I told you, you're far inferior to me."

Naruto's eyes blazed with anger, and he was about to say something when...

"Gurgle—." A crisp sound rang out throughout the venue, and everyone could hear the strange sound; someone's stomach was gurgling.

time.

Naruto Uzumaki and Sakura Haruno looked at Sasuke Uchiha with a strange expression.

That strange gurgling sound was Sasuke Uchiha's stomach growling!

Naruto couldn't help but burst out laughing, clutching his stomach and pointing at Sasuke, mocking him with a loud laugh, "Pfft, hahaha, Sasuke, your body is very honest!"

“Sasuke-kun,” Sakura Haruno said worriedly.

Sasuke Uchiha blushed slightly, turned his head away, and coldly snorted, saying, "Hmph, what can someone who can be late on the first day teach us?"

He hasn't eaten anything since yesterday.

"Don't say that, Sasuke-kun. Aozuki-sensei might have encountered some troublesome or very important matters. Let's wait a bit longer," Sakura Haruno said, forcing a smile as she tried to smooth things over.

On the surface, she was comforting everyone, but in her heart she was cursing Cang Yue to the core.

It's already seven o'clock!

Seven o'clock!

Exactly seven o'clock!

Their seventh class had been here, enduring the torment of hunger and waiting for a full three hours!

What is Hyuga Sogetsu up to?

As promised, I haven't eaten a single bite of food since yesterday!

Are you kidding me, you bastard!
