At that moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression was grave, and he felt that this was somewhat difficult to handle.
The Hyuga Clan had only been chastened by him two years ago. In the end, the Hyuga Clan patriarch's younger brother, Hizashi Hyuga, had handed over his corpse to Kumogakure to settle the matter.
The Hyuga Clan might have appeared to submit, but how could such a great clan truly accept that kind of humiliation willingly?
Hiruzen Sarutobi was certain that, given the chance, the Hyuga Clan would not hesitate to kick him while he was down.
And that was indeed the case. In the future Konoha Crush Plan, no one had been willing to save Hiruzen Sarutobi, which was the clearest proof.
Everyone had watched Hiruzen Sarutobi die at Orochimaru's hands before the clan ninja officially began sweeping up the ninja who had invaded Konoha.
Hiruzen Sarutobi had never imagined that the exploitation he had imposed on all the Ninja Clans during his tenure would be settled after the Konoha Crush Plan, through his death at Orochimaru's hands.
If the Hyuga Main Family learned now that they wanted the Lesser Flesh-Repair Pill, Hiruzen Sarutobi would not be surprised by whatever reaction the Hyuga Clan might have.
If they pushed too hard, who knew what might happen.
Especially since the Uchiha Clan was already restless, while the Hyuga Clan had only been brought into line by Hiruzen Sarutobi two years ago. Trying to snatch food from the tiger's mouth from the Hyuga Clan again would too easily give others something to talk about.
If the other Ninja Clans thought they wanted the Hyuga Clan's inherited pills, then the Hokage's reputation would be finished.
"What suggestions do you have? How can we have the Hyuga Main Family 'provide' Lesser Flesh-Repair Pills to Konoha?"
