Is this the attitude of your Uchiha Clan!

Clan Land.

Many Hyuga Clan Members discovered the scene above them, in a panic.

Shouts, screams, and terrified cries echoed throughout the solemn Clan Land, as if the end of the world had arrived.

Hinata stared blankly, lifting her small head. In her bright Eyes, the approaching orange stream of light was clearly reflected, carrying destructive, burning flames.

It was as if her entire vision was filled with that orange stream of light.

As the orange stream of light drew nearer, the wind pressure formed a hurricane, pressing down on all the Hyuga Clan Members below, greatly increasing their pressure and their despair.

"Lady Hinata!" An eight-year-old boy, Neji Hyuga, with the "Caged Bird" mark on his forehead, lunged forward, shielding Hinata beneath him.

He wanted to use his own body to protect Hinata when the terrifying orange meteor fell.

To protect his sister.

"Brother Neji..." Hinata tried to struggle, not wanting Neji Hyuga to die, but she couldn't break free.

At this moment, the orange meteor reached a height of ten meters above the Clan Land.

The world seemed to stop.

Hinata saw the orange meteor... no, a flat-topped boy enveloped in orange flames.

He was very calm, as if he were taking a stroll.

Without joy or sorrow.

Hinata's thoughts hadn't even processed before the stillness ended and destruction began. But in that instant, strangely, the wind stopped, and the destructive, burning flames disappeared.

Everything fell silent, as if it were just a dream. Only the flat-topped boy, wreathed in orange flames, remained.

She seemed to read two words from the flat-topped boy's moving lips: "Purgatory."

The next second.

BOOM--!

The ground shattered, cracks spread, and amidst the flying debris, orange flames raged.

The entire Clan Land was filled with panic and screams.

But in the next moment, the screams began to fade.

Hinata, her mind blank with fear, suddenly heard clan members shouting urgently.

"Is anyone hurt?"

Immediately after, replies came.

"I'm fine..."

"I'm fine too..."

"Big Brother, where are you!"

"I'm here!"

"Sister-in-law! Sister-in-law! Sis..."

"I'm fine!"

Voices rang out, and countless Hyuga Clan Members breathed a sigh of relief.

It was good that their loved ones were safe.

Relief washed over their disheveled faces.

At this moment, Neji Hyuga's voice reached Hinata's ears, "Lady Hinata, are you alright?"

"I'm fine, Brother Neji, you..."

"I'm fine." Neji Hyuga, after confirming Hinata was indeed unharmed, let out a sigh of relief. He moved aside and collapsed onto the ground, his face covered in cold sweat that had soaked through his clothes. The hand he used to support himself trembled, along with his entire body.

For an eight-year-old boy, his actions had just exhausted all his physical and mental strength.

Hinata went to check on Neji Hyuga and, finding him unharmed, patted her chest with relief.

At this moment, she also saw the surrounding scene.

Countless orange flames burned, ferocious and terrifying like purgatory, engulfing houses and radiating intense heat.

Not far from her, there was a crater.

From the crater, the flat-topped boy she had just seen within the orange flames climbed out, completely unharmed, as if the orange flames around him had shielded him from everything.

And Hinata wasn't the only one who noticed this boy.

Facing this outsider, the Hyuga Clan Members' eyes filled with hostility. Many had already activated their Byakugan, ready for immediate combat.

If you think this book is good, remember to add it to your bookshelf so you don't lose it next time.

Jinghuo Uchiha's expression was calm.

"I controlled the power. No one in your Hyuga Clan is injured. As for the damage to the Clan Land, you can go to Sarutobi Hiruzen to claim compensation."

As he spoke, Jinghuo Uchiha prepared to walk out.

"Stop!" an angry shout rang out, filled with the authority of a superior.

Jinghuo Uchiha turned his head and saw an old man, full of aggression, walking slowly towards him step by step.

The Hyuga Clan Members watched the old man in silence, the atmosphere filled with pressure.

The old man's aura, amplified by the Hyuga Clan Members, transformed into a towering mountain, pressing down on Jinghuo Uchiha alone.

The aura grew heavier with each slow step he took.

Jinghuo Uchiha stood there, watched for two seconds, and then grew impatient.

"If your legs aren't working well, don't make me wait for you."

He turned and left.

The old man's rage intensified.

"Seize him!"

The Hyuga Clan Members, their Byakugan activated, charged forward filled with hostility.

Jinghuo Uchiha smiled.

[Quest Name: Just You Want to Catch Me?]

[Quest Content: Kill the Hyuga Clan!]

The next second, the smile vanished from his face.

Fiery orange flames erupted from his body, filled with fierce volatility.

"Today is the Hyuga Clan's..."

"Wait!" a voice rushed over like a gale.

The next second, it braked sharply beside Jinghuo Uchiha.

"Shizuka, don't be impulsive. Can you leave this matter to me?" Itachi Uchiha said, panting as he hurriedly tried to placate Jinghuo Uchiha.

Jinghuo Uchiha glanced at Itachi Uchiha, then at the Hyuga Clan Members around him whose combat strength had weakened.

He knew the fight wouldn't happen.

Or rather, with Itachi Uchiha's arrival, the Uchiha Clan had likely arrived too.

They would definitely stop him from annihilating the Hyuga Clan.

After all, he wasn't entirely in the right.

If a conflict erupted now, Konoha might just fall apart.

The Uchiha hadn't become Hokage yet, so doing this wasn't worth it.

Therefore, he turned and looked at the old man who had ordered the Hyuga Clan Members to seize him, saying, "I remember you. I hope you don't give me an opportunity."

[Quest Name: You're the only one hostile to me?]

Jinghuo Uchiha turned and left.

He walked normally, neither fast nor slow, but no one dared to stop him. Even the Hyuga Clan Members retreated to the sides, clearing a path for him.

This scene made the Hyuga Clan's Great Elder grit his teeth.

He destroyed my Hyuga Clan's clan land and just leaves?

He still wanted to order his clan members to seize Jinghuo Uchiha.

But the orange flames that had erupted from Jinghuo Uchiha's body just now gave him a chilling fear, like facing a tyrant.

He didn't dare to shout another word at his retreating back, even though he had shouted once before.

So, he looked at the Uchiha Clan members beside him, his gaze filled with rage.

"Itachi Uchiha, is this the attitude of your Uchiha Clan!"

Itachi Uchiha's expression was calm. The frantic urgency of persuading Jinghuo Uchiha, which had caused him to sweat profusely, was gone. Instead, he exuded the natural authority of a powerful superior.

"The Hyuga Clan can seek out Lord Hokage to handle this. I am not the Uchiha Clan Head and have no authority to handle this matter. Furthermore, Hyuga Clan's Great Elder, please remember, you are not Konoha's Great Elder."

"You!!!" The Hyuga Clan's Great Elder's eyes widened in anger.
