Hyuga Takuma sighed inwardly.
He knew this would happen.
The Caged Bird holds a pivotal position in the Hyuga Clan Head Family's stability.
However, Uchiha Nan's role is not one of those sea monsters.
Hyuga Takuma having a headache.
The outrageous remarks coming from the other side of the room made Hyuga Takuma's heart pound with fear.
"The arrogant and presumptuous Lord Hokage, how much does he despise our Hyuga Clan? He's gone too far!"
"So what if it's the Lord Hokage? Our Hyuga Clan will absolutely not compromise this time. We will make him come to the Hyuga Clan Compound in person, kneel under the Hyuga Clan emblem, and apologize to us!"
"This concerns the pride of my Hyuga Clan!!"
These words can only be spoken in this conference room. If they were to be spread outside by someone with ulterior motives, the Hyuga Clan would definitely be subjected to the Lord Hokage's iron fist!
"Quiet!"
"Do not speak ill of the Lord Hokage!"
Hyuga Takuma couldn't listen anymore; he was truly terrified.
What if some members of the Main Family have already been bribed by the Lord Hokage?
Wouldn't that be disastrous?
Hyuga Takuma's authoritative voice resounded throughout the conference room. Even though the Main Family members were unwilling, they could only keep quiet for the time being in the face of Hyuga Takuma, the Clan Head.
Subsequently
Hyuga Takuma began the main topic of the meeting.
First, we need to analyze the gap between the Hyuga Clan and the Lord Hokage.
The people of his tribe in front of him had not yet come to terms with reality.
The Hyuga Clan had no way to resist the Lord Hokage; the difference in strength between the two sides was simply too great.
Uchiha Nan's shrewdness, personal strength, a large number of Anbu members under his command, the Uchiha behind him, and the ninja clans, civilian ninjas, and villagers who closely surrounded him, as well as Uchiha Nan's soaring reputation in Konoha.
What means does the Hyuga Clan have to resist Uchiha Nan?
I can't possibly rely on the ancestral Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms, can I? That palm technique is only good for fighting Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Moreover, setting aside many external factors...
Once the Hyuga Clan breaks ties with the Lord Hokage, Hyuga Takuma will have no way to unite the Hyuga Clan's power to fight against Uchiha Nan.
because
A major rift is inevitable within the Hyuga Clan!
Within the Hyuga Clan.
The number of members in the Hyuga Branch Family far exceeds the number of members in the Hyuga Clan Head Family.
Meanwhile, in the Hyuga Branch Family family...
The vast majority of branch family members would definitely choose to side with Uchiha Nan.
This is certainly beyond doubt.
After all, the Hyuga Branch Family members were truly the oppressed.
No one hates the Caged Bird in the head more than they do!
We all share the same blood and the same surname.
Why should I be a member of the split-family?
Is it because of her background?
Children who have separated from the main family will always remain children of the main family, while children of the Main Family will always remain children of the branch family.
Cough cough cough. That's really not it.
The Caged Bird system not only oppressed members of the branch family, but also spared members of the Main Family.
Generally speaking.
Only one child from the Main Family can become a member of the Main Family; all the other children must become members of the branch family and have the ugly Caged Bird tattooed on their heads.
As for which child can become the Main Family.
On the worthiness?
How is that possible?
The Hyuga Clan must be fighting amongst themselves.
Who is the most virtuous and capable?
The child who ultimately survives must be the most virtuous!
The ancestors of the Hyuga Clan certainly didn't want every generation of the Hyuga Clan Head Family to have a chicken-eating contest, so they made a rule.
The eldest child was chosen to become the Hyuga Clan Head Family.
Even twins
The first one to emerge from the womb becomes the Main Family, while the rest of the unfortunate ones become the branch family members. ( Hizashi Hyuga: Don't mention it.)
Everything is preordained by fate; it's perfectly fair.
The primogeniture system truly seems to flourish in every world!
The Hyuga Clan Head Family can bask in the light of Konoha 'Konoha benevolent father and enjoy his kindness, while the Hyuga Branch Family is in a dark place where even the light of Konoha's benevolent father can hardly reach them.
They were born to be enslaved by members of the Main Family.
The slightest hint of dissatisfaction would result in punishment from the Main Family, torture at the Caged Bird until unbearable agony, and then forced to kneel before the Main Family and beg for mercy.
Any Hyuga member branded with the Caged Bird mark will try to cover it up, usually by growing bangs or wearing the Konoha Caged Bird.
in the past.
The reason Hyuga Branch Family family members could endure such a life for so long was not only because the Caged Bird system had been passed down in the Hyuga Clan for thousands of years.
Furthermore, the members of the Hyuga Branch Family family simply had no other choice.
Because it's Caged Bird.
The lives and fortunes of the Hyuga Branch Family members are in the hands of the Hyuga Clan Head Family, accompanied by a terrifying punishment system.
Once the Caged Bird is activated, its effect is comparable to a tight headband.
The golden headband tortures that Monkey so much that he'll be forced to kneel down and call the bald monk "father."
But now.
If the Lord Hokage publicly stands up to seek justice for the Hyuga Branch Family and abolish the Caged Bird System that has been passed Hyuga Clan.
The final outcome is self-evident.
Lord Hokage, we love and respect you!
With the arrival of the Lord Hokage, the sky is clear again!
We have long wanted to bask in the light of Konoha's Konoha father and enjoy his boundless kindness.
So what if your life and fortune are at their mercy?
The Lord Hokage has led his troops to attack.
We, the branch family members of the Hyuga Branch Family, will simply glare at the Lord Hokage with our Byakugan; that's enough to repay the kindness shown to us by the Main Family.
and
Anyway Hyuga Clan won't be Lord Hokage, so the Bloodline Clan Fusion Plan sounds like such a pleasing plan!
Our Hyuga Clan will only become more glorious under the leadership of the Lord Hokage.
So today's meeting
Hyuga Takuma did not involve a Hyuga Branch Family family.
Once the contents of today's meeting become known to the members of the Hyuga Branch Family family...
perhaps
As soon as the meeting ended, tonight
Members of the Hyuga Branch Family would rush to the Hokage Building, eager to pledge their loyalty to Uchiha Nan.
"The outcome is already decided."
Hyuga Takuma analyzed the current situation of the Hyuga Clan. He didn't want to change or shake the Hyuga Clan's Caged Bird System.
But who can stop the Lord Hokage?
Uchiha Nan has already decided on the direction of the script; the Caged Bird System is definitely going to be abolished, the only difference being...
How many members of the Hyuga Clan Head Family will die?
Uchiha Nan didn't want to escalate the situation too much and wanted to minimize bloodshed as much as possible.
Moreover, compared to the Hyuga Branch Family...
The Hyuga Clan Head Family's bloodline is very pure.
Killing too many at once is such a waste.
certainly
Uchiha Nan had another method.
Capture them alive, break their limbs, and use them as breeding pigs.
but
This method is absolutely inhuman.
At that time, Tobirama Senju will personally demonstrate how to manually create fertilized eggs.
He was sure he would be looked down upon by Tobirama Senju, and now with the addition of Izuna Uchiha, Izuna would also look down on him. There were also a series of problems that Uchiha Nan would have to clean up afterward.
This is really too much trouble.
Moreover, it's not respectable at all.
" Clan Head, is there really no other way?"
" The Caged Bird Seal is the very foundation of our Hyuga Clan."
"Yes."
"We absolutely cannot give up so easily."
Even after listening to Hyuga Takuma's analysis of the situation, the Main Family members remained unconvinced and continued to chatter on, unable to accept all of this in a short period of time.
Regarding these words of resentment.
Hyuga Takuma answered with just one question.
"Who will deal with the Lord Hokage?"
"Can you defeat the Lord Hokage?"
Whenever a powerful Hyuga Clan appears who can rival Uchiha Nan, Hyuga Takuma dares to muster his courage, stand tall, and speak loudly to Uchiha Nan.
The Hyuga Clan is severely lacking in top-tier fighters.
Without a breakthrough in bloodline, the Byakugan cannot be transformed into the Tenseigan, and the upper limit of the Hyuga clan is almost locked. Their strength can grow to the Kage Level, but going beyond that is extremely difficult.
"I'm going to fight the Lord Hokage?"
"Um"
"But this shouldn't be something our clansman should be doing."
"I can't win."
This is an unavoidable issue.
This silenced the members of the Main Family.
That year.
Uchiha Nan awakened the legendary Mangekyō Sharingan, gaining terrifying power similar to that of Madara Uchiha. His body radiated a suffocating Chakra fluctuation, and he used incredibly powerful ocular energy to summon the divine power residing within the Mangekyō Sharingan — Susanoo.
Uchiha Nan rarely fought in front of others after becoming Hokage, but his epic battle with Uchiha Nan Mito Uzumaki was truly remarkable.
Most of the Main Family members present at the meeting were witnesses to that battle.
then
The spectators at the scene were all standing like lackeys.
The sheer power of their battle turned the center of the battlefield into scorched earth.
The aftershocks of the battle spread for miles around.
The onlookers were also unlucky enough to be caught in the aftermath of the battle and were forced to flee in panic.
not to mention.
The Lord Hokage was only sixteen years old that year.
His body is still developing, and his strength has not yet reached its peak.
Logically speaking, from the age of sixteen onwards, the next few years are a period of explosive growth for a ninja's strength.
The Lord Hokage's current strength must be unfathomable.
then
Hyuga Takuma coughed and said in a deep voice, "To oppose the Lord Hokage is to face certain death. The Lord Hokage has already shown us some respect; if we were to resist, Hyuga Clan?"
Be decent.
Everyone can save face.
Hyuga Takuma was still able to use this excuse to extort some benefits from Uchiha Nan.
In order to appease the members of the Hyuga Clan Head Family, Uchiha Nan would nod in agreement.
Meeting room
It quickly descended into chaos and arguments again.
The continuous arguments have led some members of the Main Family to resign themselves to their fate.
Lord Hokage, we're done for. We've accepted your kindness.
Some were indignant and still felt resentful, but they were helpless in the face of the question posed by Hyuga Takuma.
Another group of the Main Family members stubbornly resisted and refused to compromise. Most of them were older and of high seniority.
For example, that ancestor who has lived since the Warring States period, with his beard bristling and eyes wide open, cursed at Hyuga Takuma.
" The Clan Head of your Hyuga Clan actually led the way in compromising with Uchiha Nan?"
The reason our Hyuga Clan has fallen to this state is because of your incompetence as Clan Head!
What are you afraid of?!
"Why don't you dare to lead the charge and fight Uchiha Nan!"
"If you're afraid of death, why don't you become a ghost!"
Hyuga Takuma in the face of these insults, instead gazing at his clansmen with a helpless and pained expression. These were clansmen who would give their lives for the Hyuga Clan.
Many of them were elderly people who had helped Hyuga Takuma and whom Hyuga Takuma genuinely respected.
But this time, they're really going to take the hit.
"Everyone, please be quiet!"
Hyuga Takuma said coldly.
"Let's adjourn the meeting here today. The Lord Hokage has given us two months to consider this. Such an important matter cannot be decided in just one meeting, especially since it concerns the future of the Hyuga Clan."
"Remember, the contents of today's meeting must absolutely not be leaked."
Hyuga Takuma was exhausted and decided to end the meeting.
He never intended to make a final decision today; today's meeting was merely to inform the members of the Main Family Main Family and prepare them mentally.
At the same time, they probed the Main Family members' attitudes toward the bloodline ninja clan fusion plan.
Who chooses to compromise, who remains neutral and observes, and who remains stubbornly unyielding?
Hyuga Takuma had already memorized the names of those who resisted most fiercely, and he planned to personally visit them one by one after the meeting to persuade them to change their minds.
Save as many as you can.
If they truly resist stubbornly, we will resolutely oppose the Lord Hokage to the end.
That was for the sake of the Hyuga Clan.
For the greater good, you shall die! (Without mercy)
Hyuga Takuma announced the end of the meeting.
The members of the Main Family left the meeting room in twos and threes, and everyone was in low spirits.
Because of that damned Bloodline Ninja Clan Fusion Plan
Because of the Lord Hokage's iron fist...
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night for the Hyuga Clan Head Family, except for Hyuga Asuka, of course.
Hokage Otaku
Uchiha Nan was panting heavily, one hand stroking Hyuga Asuka's smooth, white shoulder.
Hyuga Asuka leaned against Uchiha Nan, beads of sweat still clinging to her forehead, one hand fiddling with her hair as she savored what had just happened.
After a while
Uchiha Nan mentioned his bloodline limit fusion plan to Hyuga Asuka.
Hyuga Asuka looked at Uchiha Nan with a slightly surprised expression; she really hadn't expected that Uchiha Nan in front of her would want to do such a thing.
But she figured it out a few seconds later.
Hyuga Asuka comes from a prestigious ninja clan, and the Hyuga Clan maintained close ties with the nobles of the Land of Fire, so she inevitably has to attend banquets hosted by the nobility.
Men have their own social circles.
Women naturally have their own social circles.
When Hyuga Asuka young, she was naive and confused, but as she got a little older, she inevitably came into contact with adult topics.
The topics women discuss in private are anything but ordinary.
At a banquet
A noblewoman from the Land of Fire overheard Hyuga Asuka's worries. "There are just too many outstanding girls around the Lord Hokage, but for my own sake and the future of my clan..."
Hyuga Asuka must do everything in her power.
then
From that noblewoman, she obtained a book titled "The Art of Husband Taming," written with painstaking effort by countless aristocratic women.
Since then
Hyuga Asuka felt as if she had been enlightened, and her entire state of mind was elevated.
Since Lord Takuma has already decided his fate...
"Asuka, what's your opinion on this?"
"Kun-kun, from now on I'm going to take the Uchiha surname."
Hyuga Asuka continued to fiddle with the hair in her hand, and then gave her answer.
A smile appeared on Uchiha Nan's face.
In the future
The one who will secure my harem must be a flying bird!
