Now that he had found the target, all the arrangements could proceed according to the original plan.
However, the process needed to be adjusted.
Jigen the monk, huh? He had to find a way to lure that guy to Konoha.
Regardless of whether Jigen the monk was good or evil, an Ōtsutsuki Clan member was lurking inside him. And according to the intelligence, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki had secretly formed some organization called Kara to cause trouble.
Whether that organization had been established in this world or not could be set aside for now. There was no doubt that this guy was a potential threat.
No ruler would allow such a threat to exist within their territory.
Not to mention that Ōtsutsuki Isshiki was certainly no weakling.
So regardless of whether he had begun causing trouble yet, there was absolutely nothing wrong with bringing him under control first.
Then, all he had to do was think of a way to draw him here.
Thus, one week later:
As usual, Naruto went to Hinata's house and invited her on a date.
Hinata dressed up exquisitely before running out the door with a patter of footsteps to meet Naruto.
Leaving only Hyuga Hiashi, eyes blazing as he glared furiously at Naruto's retreating back.
Of course Hyuga Hiashi was angry. Hinata might not have had Neji Hyuga's talent, or even her younger sister Hanabi's, but she was the only one whose Byakugan had evolved.
Without a doubt, Hinata was now the hope of the entire Hyuga Clan.
And now, their hope—their precious little cabbage—had been rooted by a pig!
Damn it! Naruto, you little bastard! One day, I'll beat the hell out of you!
Unaware that his future father-in-law relationship would be utterly terrible, Naruto took Hinata for a stroll through Konoha's Inner City.
