The Hardworking Hyuga Clan

Although Black Zetsu thwarted the plan to sow discord among the Five Great Shinobi Villages, the Hyuga Clan's path of evolution has been put on the right track.

The effects of the 'Body Tempering Pill' were very noticeable; the first batch of the Hyuga Clan ninjas who took the 'Body Tempering Pill' all experienced a certain improvement.

Compared to directly fusing with cells, absorbing life force through the human digestive system is a gentler method, and if combined with other herbs, there is basically no danger.

Having personally experienced the effects of the 'Body Tempering Pill,' the first batch of fifty Hyuga Clan the pill were extremely excited and couldn't wait to take it a second time to quickly increase their strength.

No ninja can resist the temptation of power, because power is the only standard by which a ninja's worth is measured.

In the past few days, the entire Hyuga Clan's spirits have changed. Although the matter of the 'Body Tempering Pill' must be kept secret, the fifty ninjas who took the 'Body Tempering Pill' are all full of energy and are training even harder every day.

As the provider of the 'Body Tempering Pill', Hyuga Hiashi's prestige within the clan reached its zenith.

Especially after Hyuga Hiashi revealed the secret of Natural Energy to the Main Family Elder, those elders almost went crazy.

These Main Family Elder Hyuga Clan, but now they were old and frail, drawing ever closer to death. Though unwilling, they could only succumb to the passage of time.

But now they see the hope of immortality!

No one wants to die. Even ninjas who are used to death and killing are afraid of death.

After the secret of Natural Energy was revealed to the Hyuga Clan's upper echelons, Hyuga Hiashi briefly explained Hinata's plans and ambitions.

This was also the first time Hinata had publicly revealed her ambition to her clan. However, under the temptation of immortality, everyone agreed to Hinata's plan... even though this plan would put the Hyuga Clan on the opposite side of the entire Shinobi World, and could lead to their utter destruction if they were not careful.

But no matter how great the danger, it cannot outweigh the benefits that this matter can bring.

Faced with the choice between the future of the Hyuga Clan and their own immortality, everyone chose the latter.

The Hyuga Clan has now shaken off its usual decadent atmosphere, and everyone has begun to train hard, trying their best to improve their strength.

Even a slight improvement brings one one step closer to qualifying for cultivating Senjutsu.

Hinata's life remained largely unchanged; she spent her days eating, drinking, sleeping when she wanted, and playing when she wanted. While her days lacked excitement, they were comfortable and carefree.

In the courtyard, Hinata lay on a rocking chair, her right hand behind her head and her left hand on her lower abdomen. The rocking chair swayed gently, and in her half-asleep state, Hinata seemed to be having a sweet dream.

"Ah, that feels good!"

"Ugh—"

Hinata stretched, squinted as she sat up, looked around a few times, and then collapsed back into the rocking chair.

Just as I was about to take another nap, an annoying voice suddenly rang out.

"Is Lady Hinata awake?"

Tokuma Hyuga appeared Body Flicker Technique, kneeling before Hinata, looking as if he were sworn to serve her to the death without any regrets.

This guy was also among the fifty people taking the medicine. Ever since he witnessed the effects of the 'Body Tempering Pill,' Hyuga Tokuma Hyuga has become even more obsequious than before. He would come to Hinata's side to inquire about her well-being whenever he had the chance, and recently he even started learning to cook from Natsu Hyuga, preparing to win Hinata's heart with delicious food.

"Tokuma!"

Hinata rolled her eyes at Tokuma Hyuga. She didn't know why, Hinata always felt that this guy was using his good looks to seduce her and had ulterior motives towards her.

There's a saying that goes, "The way to a woman's heart is through her stomach" (observation from the sidelines).

"What do you want?" Hinata asked coldly.

Hinata Tokuma Hyuga asked with a fawning expression, "Lady Hinata, what would you like to eat tonight?"

This lackey is beyond saving (covers face).

However, although Hinata despises Tokuma Hyuga 'Tokuma Hyuga character, she still welcomes his behavior.

"Uh-huh!"

Hinata thought about it seriously for a moment, then rattled off a whole bunch of delicious food names. Tokuma Hyuga accepted the order and happily went off to prepare the meal for Hinata.

Hinata shook her head slightly as she watched Tokuma Hyuga's retreating figure.

Tokuma Hyuga's ulterior motives are obvious. This guy is taking advantage of his relationship with Hinata and keeps running to Hinata's side. Isn't he hoping that Hinata will give him special treatment?

I heard that Tokuma Hyuga was quite powerful in the branch family because he had served as Hinata's bodyguard for a period of time.

Especially recently, Hinata has found it hard to believe that Tokuma Hyuga, that lackey, has recruited several underlings.

Hinata had actually taken her little follower to heart. She had spent the last two days carefully compiling some insights about Natural Energy, intending to give them to Tokuma Hyuga as a birthday gift.

As for how far Tokuma Hyuga can go, that depends on his own efforts.

Under Hinata's leadership, the entire Hyuga Clan is striving towards higher goals. Even those who know nothing about it are influenced by this atmosphere and work harder than usual.

Hinata was very satisfied. As long as she could take the Hyuga Clan into space, she would not be alone in the future.

The changes in the Hyuga Clan did not escape the eyes of the village.

But so what?

As long as the village lacks the power to withstand Hinata, no one will dare to attack the Hyuga Clan.

Whatever the Hyuga Clan is plotting, the village can only turn a blind eye and cannot send anyone to investigate.

The investigation concluded that the village could not afford it.

The Hokage's Office.

Tsunade stood by the window, gazing into the distance, her tightly furrowed brows unable to relax for a long time.

While Konoha is not currently facing internal or external troubles, the Hyuga Clan is clearly not as peaceful as it was a year ago.

Especially recently, the Hyuga Clan seems to have made some kind of decision, and the clan members have changed from their usual laziness to be unusually diligent in their training.

Tsunade desperately wanted to know what had happened to the Hyuga Clan, but the Hyuga Clan's unique circumstances prevented Tsunade from monitoring Hyuga Clan.

"A decision must be made!"

Tsunade knew very well that if she continued to do nothing, the village would only suffer greater harm in the end.

"Shizune... Do you think what I did was really the right thing to do?"

Shizune said firmly, "Lady Tsunade, now that things have come to this, we need to gather some information and determine the Hyuga Clan's objectives."

"If we know nothing and continue to suspect the Hyuga Clan, we will only allow the rift between us to widen further until it becomes irreparable."

Tsunade sighed softly, seemingly somewhat helpless, and said, "Alright! Let Shikamaru and the others set off on June 15th, Hinata will go with them too."

"Without Hinata, the Hyuga Clan might have some secrets exposed."
