Hiashi and Hizashi

Ninjas earn commissions by performing missions and are bound by ninja regulations, which is actually a manifestation of civilization.

Whether it is power or strength, once it is free from the constraints of rules, it will cause unimaginable disasters to the world.

This is also the main reason why Hinata, although she admires Orochimaru's lifestyle, will not allow herself to become Orochimaru.

If all ninjas were like Orochimaru, ignoring the rules and acting recklessly, how would ordinary people in this world live?

Only when the world is bound by rules can it truly be stable.

Moreover, earning commissions through labor is a rule of civilized society.

Only chaotic times breed bandits, but no one likes chaotic times.

Hizashi Hyuga knew very well that when a person's power reached a certain level, they might start to question the Ninja Code.

They believed that since they already possessed such great power, what difference would it make if they didn't follow the rules?

The maintenance of rules is based on force. When the force used to maintain the rules cannot restrain a person, then the only thing that can restrain that person's behavior is their own mind.

Hizashi Hyuga did not want his older brother to become like that.

"Hizashi, I know what you want to say!"

Hyuga Hiashi placed his hand on the teacup, and the hot tea steamed up, creating a burning sensation if left for too long.

"The world is so vast that it is not just the world as we see it with our eyes."

Do you know the origins of our Hyuga Clan?

"The story begins roughly a thousand years ago..."

Kaguya Otsutsuki's story is short, easily told in just a few minutes. But these few minutes were enough to make Hizashi Hyuga existence.

"Our Hyuga Clan... were actually aliens?"

Hizashi Hyuga could hardly believe it, but seeing Hyuga Hiashi's Hizashi Hyuga eyes, he knew it was all real.

"Hinata and I actually have some conflicting ideas..."

Hyuga Hiashi said, "Take the Nine Tailed Beasts for example. Although the Nine Tailed Beasts were once the power of Kaguya Otsutsuki, they now belong to the Five Great Shinobi Villages."

"As time goes by, everything from the past becomes history."

"The land beneath our feet never belonged to us before, but now it belongs to Konoha, to our Hyuga Clan."

Hizashi Hyuga nodded in agreement, "Then Hinata..."

Hyuga Hiashi and continued his explanation, "Hinata certainly doesn't want to, because if she wants to take back the Nine Tailed Beasts, she must have a reasonable excuse."

"But..."

Hyuga Hiashi smiled faintly, "Perhaps at this moment, the Nine Tailed Beasts still belong to the Five Great Shinobi Villages, but that doesn't mean they will still belong to them in the future."

Hizashi Hyuga looked at Hyuga Hiashi with a strange expression. Although Hyuga Hiashi and Hinata had different views, their goals were the same.

Moreover, the word "they" allowed Hizashi Hyuga to see Hyuga Hiashi's true thoughts; he had already excluded himself from the Five Great Shinobi Villages.

"My brother said before that Hinata has found a way to enhance the power of the Hyuga clan?"

Hizashi Hyuga asked, "I don't know if this method is..."

Hyuga Hiashi explained, "The source of ninja power is Natural Energy, a power that can create the world!"

"Perhaps from a certain perspective, the energy that sustains our lives is Natural Energy, and the energy that keeps the world running is also Natural Energy."

"As long as we find a way to harness Natural Energy, we can further enhance our power and allow life to evolve."

"My eyes... are the same!"

Although Hyuga Hiashi didn't know much about Natural Energy, he did glean some insights from Hinata's explanation.

Natural Energy may be the energy source that keeps the world running.

"Have you heard of the Three Great Sage Regions? The creatures in the Three Great Sage Regions have mastered great power by relying on Natural Energy and have lifespans of up to a thousand years."

"Hizashi, now you should understand why I have these thoughts, right?"

Hizashi Hyuga took a deep breath. Although it was only a few words, Hizashi Hyuga saw the future that Hyuga Hiashi had described.

It possesses immense power and a long lifespan.

This is the future of the Hyuga Clan!

"Brother, are you confident?"

Hizashi Hyuga voice, "If we cooperate with the Akatsuki, we won't have much time left!"

Hyuga Hiashi said calmly, "Cooperation with Akatsuki is another matter. It doesn't conflict with our Hyuga Clan's plans, but they are somewhat related."

"Akatsuki's plan will probably not begin for another year or so. If Akatsuki wins, the landscape of the Shinobi World will be completely changed. If the Five Great Shinobi Villages win, our Hyuga Clan can still lie low in Konoha and wait for the right opportunity."

"But we are already involved with Akatsuki after all. If we want the Hyuga Clan to remain invincible, we need to plan carefully."

Hizashi Hyuga finally understood why Hyuga Hiashi had summoned him.

The Akatsuki and the Five Great Shinobi Villages will eventually clash, and the Hyuga Clan, wanting to remain undefeated while also gaining benefits, cannot afford to do nothing.

Hizashi Hyuga asked cryptically, "Brother, what about the cooperation between our Hyuga Clan and Akatsuki...?"

Hyuga Hiashi said calmly, "Those of the Akatsuki on the surface don't know about this, but those behind Akatsuki... if anyone would betray us, it would probably only be Obito!"

Hizashi Hyuga shook his head slightly and said in a somewhat inexplicable tone, "Obito Uchiha... Sigh! Who would have thought that the brat from the Uchiha Family would become the mastermind behind Akatsuki?"

Hyuga Hiashi continued, "Kaguya Otsutsuki plays a very important role in our plan."

"Without this person, our Hyuga Clan might have remained in the Ninja World forever."

"But if we rely solely on our own strength to explore the universe, it would probably take hundreds of years!"

Hizashi Hyuga understood Hyuga Hiashi's meaning. Although everyone was working for the future of the Hyuga Clan, the future Hyuga Clan was still somewhat different from the present Hyuga Clan.

When the prospect of eternal life is presented to everyone, no one wants to become just a name in the annals of history.

Hizashi Hyuga said knowingly, "Brother, I understand your and Hinata's plan."

"If the plan succeeds and Kaguya Otsutsuki is successfully resurrected, then everything will be fine. What my brother is worried about is how the Hyuga Clan will protect itself if the plan fails..."

After a pause, Hizashi Hyuga continued, "Actually, the problem that my brother is worried about doesn't exist at all in my opinion."

"As long as my brother and Hinata are still alive, nothing in the Hyuga Clan will change... It's just a matter of compromise after defeat and whether our Hyuga Clan should continue to stay in Konoha!"

"The Five Great Shinobi Villages have been fighting for many years, but isn't the situation now balanced?"
