The Hyuga Great Elder muttered, his muttering growing faster and more panicked.

At this moment, his eyes widened.

Even though the golden meteorite was descending at an absurd speed, he somehow saw Jinghuo Uchiha inside smiling at him.

The next second, the ground collapsed, and ravines appeared.

The Hyuga clan members were utterly horrified, their screams filled with terror.

Watching this apocalyptic scene, the Hyuga Great Elder's fear roared out.

"Jinghuo Uchiha! Do you want the Uchiha clan and the Hyuga clan to go to war!!!"

He heard no response.

Perhaps the ground collapsing and the screams of his clan members were too loud, preventing Jinghuo Uchiha from hearing him;

Or perhaps Jinghuo Uchiha deliberately didn't respond.

Because he seemed to hear a disdainful cold "Hmph."

Immediately after, a voice, barely audible, echoed in his ears, like the murmur of a million people, filled with unwavering will and a noble command.

"Dawn · Annihilation."

Instantly, from the ravines in the collapsed ground, a golden light emerged, illuminating all directions.

As if a priceless treasure from beneath the earth was breaking through the soil, it was brilliant, dazzling, catching the sunlight and dyeing everything golden.

The next second.

An even more intense golden light struck.

It was daytime, yet it was more blinding than the sun, causing countless Hyuga clan members to painfully close their eyes, their brows furrowed, fearing their eyes would be harmed by looking directly at the golden light.

As if a volcano had erupted, they felt a terrifyingly high temperature, as if their hearts, livers, spleens, and kidneys were being burned away, making them feel the absolute terror of their bodies melting, their hearts trembling, their souls afraid.

"No--!!!"

At this moment, a pained scream brought the Hyuga clan members back to their senses.

They... seemed unharmed?

Then, the golden light gradually dimmed.

The Hyuga clan members cautiously opened their eyes, like newborn infants, feeling utterly unfamiliar with the world.

They felt as if they were in a extinguished furnace.

Everything before them was scorched black.

Besides the people, everything on the ground had turned to ash, piling up on the ground like black snow.

A slight breeze stirred the ashes, revealing the slightly orange, glowing red ground beneath.

The Hyuga clan members were stunned.

It felt as if they were the only ones left in the world.

At this moment, a familiar figure walked out of the pit.

"Jinghuo Uchiha!" The Hyuga clan members recognized him instantly.

They hurriedly gripped their weapons, staring intently at Jinghuo Uchiha, completely unaware that their legs were trembling and they were backing away.

Cold sweat soaked their clothes without them noticing, their breathing stopped without them realizing.

Their eyes were fixed only on Jinghuo Uchiha.

The entire Hyuga clan land fell into absolute silence because of one person.

Only the sound of relaxed, ordinary footsteps echoed continuously.

It was Jinghuo Uchiha's footsteps.

Step by step, it felt like he was stepping on the hearts of the Hyuga clan members, making their throats bob and their pupils tremble uneasily, their cold sweat pouring out more intensely.

They feared Jinghuo Uchiha would suddenly turn around and start slaughtering.

The fear in their hearts made their bodies completely stiff.

It wasn't until Jinghuo Uchiha walked away that they realized.

They were completely drenched, as if they had been pulled out of water.

They collapsed onto the ground, their bodies weak, feeling a sharp pain.

But it was tens of thousands of times easier than the fear in their hearts.

One by one, the Hyuga clan members gasped for air, their bodies cold, their limbs trembling uncontrollably, their hearts pounding non-stop, in a daze of panic, unable to control themselves.

After an unknown amount of time, a familiar voice called out.

"Are you alright?"

The Hyuga clan members looked at Hyuga Hiashi in front of them. "Clan... Clan Head?"

"Are you alright?" Hyuga Hiashi asked again.

It was as if there was a delay. After four or five seconds, that Hyuga Clan Member shook his head slightly.

Seeing his expression, Hyuga Hiashi's face showed some sorrow, but also a hint of relief. He squeezed the small hand beside him, feeling much more at ease.

"Father?" Hinata looked up, her delicate and cute little face full of confusion.

Why was Father suddenly so gentle?

Hyuga Hiashi ruffled her slender and soft short hair, his expression slightly gentle as he shook his head.

Behind him, Hizashi Hyuga stared at the scorched hellscape that was the Hyuga Clan Land before him. For a moment, words caught in his throat, unable to be spoken.

Ash like black snow floated in the air, a scene of desolation.

Clan Members sat slumped on the ground, filled with confusion and fear.

This scene, like an apocalypse, made the clan heads of the main family and branch family, these twins, unable to help but exchange glances. They saw the fear and determination in each other's eyes.

Fear of Uchiha Jinghuo's power;

Determination to abandon the Police Force.

This was the second time.

This was also a warning.

Although no one died, the damage was more severe!

So, what if there was a third time?

What would the Hyuga Clan look like then?

They dared not imagine.

They had to abandon the Police Force!

They absolutely could not get involved in this mess again!

"Where is the Great Elder?" Hyuga Hiashi asked a Clan Member who had just snapped back to reality.

He needed to use this opportunity to explain the terror of Uchiha Jinghuo.

This muddy water was not something the Hyuga Clan could profit from!

The Hyuga Clan Member froze.

Right!

Where was the Great Elder?

When Uchiha Jinghuo came out earlier, the Great Elder definitely wouldn't have let him leave!

One sentence stirred up a thousand waves.

Countless Clan Members snapped back to reality and began searching for the Great Elder.

"Where did the Great Elder go?"

"Did he go out?"

"No, the Great Elder didn't leave the house today."

"Then why isn't he in his usual spot?"

"Are we looking in the wrong direction?"

"Could my Byakugan be wrong?"

Soon, the Hyuga Clan Members searched the entire Clan Land.

But not a single one of them found the Hyuga Great Elder.

This made the Hyuga Clan Members recall the screams they heard when the golden light appeared: "It seems like someone was screaming terribly at the beginning."

"I heard it too, I thought it was my imagination."

"I heard it too!"

"Me too!"

"Me too..."

"Me too..."

Hyuga Hiashi and Hizashi Hyuga's pupils contracted violently, guessing what had happened.

The slightly more astute among the Hyuga Clan Members also followed suit, their eyes widening in disbelief.

Uchiha Jinghuo actually killed the Hyuga Great Elder?!

Was he not afraid of war between the Hyuga Clan and the Uchiha Clan?!

They tightly covered their mouths, their eyes wide as they looked at the two clan heads, Hyuga Hiashi and Hizashi Hyuga.

Now, if anyone spoke out, the Hyuga Clan would go to war with the Uchiha Clan, and then Konoha would be in chaos!

Perhaps the Fourth Shinobi World War would even begin!

All the villages would come to fight over Konoha, this resource-rich region!

Realizing this, everyone was filled with fear.

War... No one liked war!

At this moment, someone had indeed guessed it, and without thinking, wanted to blurt out that the Great Elder might have been killed by Uchiha Jinghuo.
