Abolition of the Hyuga Main Family Succession System
Hyuga Kaze's Eight Trigrams - Air Palm strike was unleashed, heading straight for Uchiha Kō's head. Uchiha Kō immediately sensed something was wrong, and his golden Susanoo skeleton rose from the ground, enveloping his entire body.
His Air Palm struck Uchiha Kō's skeleton, only flashing briefly at the point of impact before returning to stillness without causing any ripples. Uchiha Kō suddenly sneered, "You've made your move?"
"How dare you," Uchiha Kō said calmly. Everyone present looked at him with strange expressions. They could have just been exchanging words, but why were they actually fighting?
Now things are really messed up. Hyuga Kyo and Hyuga Yun are utterly despondent. They never imagined that their Third Brother would be so brainless as to attempt to assassinate the Hokage.
Immediately afterwards, the branch family members filed in, shouting, "Protect the Lord Hokage!"
"Protect Hiashi!"
"Kill those bastards from the Main Family!"
The former Hyuga Branch Family ninjas stepped forward to confront the Main Family ninjas. They hadn't had time to adapt to their current bodies, but they couldn't stand idly by when the Lord Hokage was in trouble.
Without the constraints of Caged Bird, the minor Main Family can be manipulated at will.
Hizashi Hyuga stepped forward, glaring at the old men of the Main Family with a fierce look in his eyes. He spat, "You dogs! You call yourselves bastards all day long, but you never contribute anything. All you do is be parasites on the Hyuga Clan. You can use the Caged Bird to coerce and entice us branch family disciples!" Hizashi Hyuga's eyes were filled with hatred.
He originally thought that his life would end like this, being controlled by the Main Family and living like a puppet, including his future children, who would only be slaves to the Main Family.
He tried to resist, but was easily defeated by a Caged Bird Curse Mark. It was only thanks to his elder brother speaking up for him that he was spared being killed on the spot.
The one who coerced and bribed him the most was this Third Elder, Hyuga Kaze. Hyuga Kaze to his Qi Ming; he was like a madman. When pushed to the limit, he was capable of anything, just like now. He was even capable of committing the heinous crime of annihilating his clan by attacking the Hokage in public. It was simply absurd.
"Big brother, second brother, don't you understand? At this moment, the only option is to fight to the death! Otherwise, our Hyuga Main Family will become a laughing stock in Konoha!" Hyuga Kaze's face darkened as he looked at his two older brothers.
Uchiha Kō was somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected to encounter someone in this world who valued integrity more than life itself. Interesting, truly interesting.
Hyuga Kyo and Hyuga Yun Kumo remained unmoved. They were well aware of the disparity in strength between themselves and their enemy. Now, even if the Hokage didn't intervene, the branch family members could tear them apart. Resistance? There was no hope. It was better to simply admit defeat, and they could still live as wealthy men or ordinary Hyuga clan members.
Seeing that Hyuga Kyo and Hyuga Yun remained unmoved, Hyuga Kaze's eyes turned fierce, and he clenched his fists. Everyone thought he had gone mad, but he hadn't. Hyuga Kaze would rather die by someone else's knife than become someone else's gossip.
If you're going to do something, do it all!
Hyuga Kaze Chakra gathered his chakra again, preparing to unleash the Eight Trigrams Air Palm. However, in the next second, Hizashi Hyuga moved like a ghost, directly using the Eight Trigrams Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms to seal all of Hyuga Kaze's meridians, preventing his Chakra from flowing.
Hyuga Kaze was stunned. Had his meridians been sealed by a member of the branch family today? He immediately focused his sword fingers, placed them in front of his chest, and began to chant the branch family's Caged Bird Technique. However, Hizashi Hyuga looked at Hyuga Kaze with a playful expression.
"Heh, you idiot, have you forgotten that the Lord Hokage just gave us the Cage-Breaking Pill?" Hizashi Hyuga said coldly, then slapped Hyuga Kaze Hyuga Kaze the left cheek with a powerful blow. He didn't hold back, and the loud slap made the other clan members present gasp. What kind of deep grudge was this!
Hizashi Hyuga, the strongest ninja in the Hyuga Clan, was already Jonin three years ago. Even Hyuga Hiashi was Hyuga Hiashi him. And these elders, who usually hold their positions without doing anything and live a life of luxury, have probably deteriorated to an unknown degree in combat strength. How dare they make a move now?
"How dare you! Hizashi Hyuga, you dog from the branch family, dare to turn against your master! Are you trying to rebel?" Hyuga Kaze felt he had lost face, so he tried to regain it with words.
"Heh, if it's the same Hyuga who secretly called the Main Family's back, then so what if he rebelled?" Hizashi Hyuga, now free from the constraints of the Caged Bird Seal and the threat to his life, displayed the demeanor of the Hyuga's number one genius.
The Great Elder and the Second Elder were taken aback, as if they saw in Hizashi Hyuga the same Hyuga Tenin Tennin-sama from the Warring States Period who led the Senju Hashirama Hyūga Clan Madara and Uchiha Hashirama.
They were equally willful and reckless, equally young, and also from a branch family. They were killing all over the battlefield. However, the Main Family and the branch family had a good relationship at that time. In the Warring States Period, no one knew if death would come tomorrow. The Caged Bird was originally set up to protect the Byakugan Bloodline.
Instead of becoming a means of class antagonism, as it is now, the two looked at each other and wondered, "Are we really wrong?" In fact, they both knew in their hearts that they had known the drawbacks of doing this from the very beginning, but in order to enjoy such treatment and to ensure that their descendants would not have to struggle, they resorted to crooked means.
They coerced Hyuga Akagi into agreeing, and he was helpless at the time, but with the Council of Elders at three to one, his words carried no weight! Otherwise, who would allow their son to become a member of the branch family?
Some people don't regret their mistakes now, nor do they realize them only now; they knew from the beginning. The reason they regret their mistakes now is because they know the tide has turned and they too will face reckoning.
Hyuga Kaze's eyes were sinister. Even without Chakra, he could defeat Hizashi Hyuga with just Taijutsu. What a mere junior! Just as he was about to make his move, Hizashi Hyuga kicked him.
Hinata Hyuga Kaze has its advantages, especially when it comes to someone who is recognized as the number one genius in the clan. This result was not unexpected!
Hyuga Kyo and Hyuga Yun remained kneeling, silent. Hizashi Hyuga had no desire to attack these cowards who lacked the courage to resist. He spoke, "Hyuga Clan Military Police Force Guards, listen to my orders! Hyuga Kaze Hokage; arrest him and imprison him in the Military Police Force' jail. Any other accomplices who show no remorse will be punished as accomplices!"
"Yes!" Dozens of voices rang out, Hyuga Branch Family ninjas stepped forward and grabbed Hyuga Kaze from the main Main Family. The other Main Family ninjas had never seen such a scene before, and being flowers in a greenhouse, they couldn't muster any will to resist.
One by one, the so-called geniuses of the Hyuga Main Family began to kneel on the ground. They, who were once high and mighty, were now like losers, resigned to their fate, with mixed feelings in their hearts.
Uchiha Kō did not stop this scene. He had done what he needed to do. As for the Great Elder and the Second Elder, the branch family would probably be able to bring them down without the Caged Bird.
"Hizashi." Uchiha Kō suddenly called out to Hizashi Hyuga.
"Lord Hokage!" Hizashi Hyuga knelt down on both knees. This was not a simple bow, as such a grand gesture is usually reserved for parents. However, Uchiha Kō's actions had undoubtedly been a life-saving grace for Hizashi Hyuga and their branch family. Therefore, Uchiha Kō deserved to kneel like this!
"Hizashi, from now on you will assist your brother in managing the Hyuga Clan. From now on, the titles of branch family and Main Family will be abolished. Are you willing?" Uchiha Kō got straight to the point.
"Your subordinate is willing!" Hizashi Hyuga did not hesitate. Everything they had was given to them by Uchiha Kō, so what reason did they have to disagree?
"Hiashi, the Council of Elders is corrupt and needs a reshuffle. You and your brother should select new elders for the clan as soon as possible to stabilize morale," Uchiha Kō instructed.
"I understand, teacher!" His eyes lit up with joy. Finally, he didn't have to work with those arrogant old men anymore. They were always making trouble for him and finding fault with him. Even if it was beneficial to the family, they would refuse it if it didn't align with their interests.
Hyuga Hiashi had absolutely had enough of this kind of life!
Uchiha Kō nodded and said, "Everyone, I have been invited by the Hiashi clan head to resolve the internal strife within the clan. Please explain yourselves clearly then."
"We understand!" The heads of each family stepped forward and said.
"Now that this matter is settled, Hiashi and Hizashi, I'll be leaving." Uchiha Kō glanced at them and Earth Flow the main gate with an upright demeanor.
The branch family disciples quickly made way for him, then looked at Uchiha Kō with gratitude and respect, secretly vowing to Uchiha Kō to the death!
This is what people who have been oppressed for a long time think after being liberated. I bet even if Uchiha Kō asked them to commit suicide now, they wouldn't hesitate.
Hyuga Clan Compound
Hyuga Hiashi and Hizashi Hyuga a glance, then burst into laughter. The two twin brothers, now without any estrangement, embraced each other.
"Big brother!"
"Second brother!"
The branch family ninjas smiled when they saw this. They Hizashi and Hiashi, and they were happy to see the relationship between the two improve.
Hyuga Kyo and Hyuga Yun seemed to have all their energy drained away; their backs were no longer straight, but hunched over backwards, as if the dust had settled.
Hizashi Hyuga handed over the task of dealing with Hyuga Kyo and Hyuga Yun to his elder brother, Hyuga Hiashi. Hyuga Hiashi, hands clasped in his pockets, said sternly, "Hyuga Kyo and Hyuga Yun, from this moment on, are relieved of their positions as Great Elder and Second Elder, respectively, and are ordered to remain at home for six months. They may leave after they have thought things through."
Hyuga Clan has only one voice, and that is the voice of me, Hyuga Hiashi!
The Great Elder and the Second Elder were forcibly taken back to their homes by the branch family members and then thrown inside. The two exchanged a glance and sighed inwardly, thinking, "What goes around comes around."
Now, the counterattack from the split family has terrified them. It's only because Hyuga Hiashi is kind that he's given them a chance to repent. If it were Hizashi, he probably would have killed them!
Outside the clan territory
Hyuga Hiashi looked at the members of the Main Family and branch families and said, "From now on, the inheritance system between the main and branch Main Family will be completely abolished. We are all ninjas of the Hyūga Clan, and no one is inherently superior to anyone else!"
"Secondly, all the original Ninjutsu and techniques of the Hyuga Main Family will be made available. You must all study diligently and strive for the future of our Hyūga Clan!"
"Third, appoint Hizashi Hyuga as the Great Elder, to jointly handle important clan affairs with me, Hyuga Hiashi!"
"Does anyone have any questions?" Hyuga Hiashi asked with a straight face, but inwardly he was laughing wildly.
"We have no objections!" All the Hyuga clan members knelt on the ground, including the former Main Family ninjas; they easily accepted this outcome.
6000 words
The Hyuga's Main Family system vanished at this moment.
From now on, there will only be one Hyuga, a united Hyuga!
