"Because Hanabi was born, elder brother is temporarily accompanying sister-in-law... Now the targets of monitoring Naruto Uzumaki have shifted to me and Hyuga Tokuma..."
Underground Base.
Hyuga Sho sat upon the throne.
Below, Hizashi Hyuga was reporting.
During the day, Hizashi Hyuga monitored Naruto Uzumaki.
At night, Hyuga Tokuma and the others took turns.
The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was an important resource of Konoha.
He could not be lost so easily.
The incident when Yugito Nii nearly abducted Naruto Uzumaki had sounded the alarm for Hyuga Sho.
In fact.
Hyuga Sho was not afraid of Naruto Uzumaki being abducted.
He was worried about what would happen afterward.
The Nine-Tails' Rampage back then had ultimately been pinned on the Uchiha Clan in the village.
If Naruto Uzumaki were kidnapped by an enemy.
Then...
By that time... it would not be certain who would take the blame.
The enemy could release the Nine-Tails in Konoha once again.
Hyuga Sho was not only on guard against Uchiha Obito.
He was also on guard against Shimura Danzō.
After all, Shimura Danzō also had Sharingan in his possession.
In other words...
Hizashi Hyuga and the others were monitoring Naruto Uzumaki not to rescue him at a critical moment.
Although under normal circumstances, Hizashi Hyuga... could crush a Three-Tomoe Uchiha Shisui...
But the problem was.
In this age of rampant demons and monsters, Elite Jonin were no longer enough.
The members of the Akatsuki Organization.
Every one of them was Kage Level.
An Elite Jonin... could not rescue Naruto Uzumaki from their hands.
Hizashi Hyuga's role.
Was to immediately send word to Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi after Naruto Uzumaki was kidnapped.
"Help! Lord Hokage, our village's Nine-Tails Jinchuriki has been abducted by XX!"
This...
Was the strategic significance and value of the Byakugan.
