Let Them Go to Konoha!
As two families that once shared a common origin and developed from the same source, the Hyuga Clan and Kaguya Clan still maintain a high frequency of communication even though they are separated in two different countries.
so.
The two families have a certain understanding of each other's situation, especially their abilities and the characteristics of their lineage.
In the past, Hyuga Hiashi would never use Ninjutsu, and he also had some other special methods.
and.
Their research into inherited abilities has become more in-depth.
The rest of the Kaguya Clan around her were completely bewildered, having no idea what was going on.
What's happening now? The clan leader has been defeated?
But...
They still don't understand!
"Watch closely, this is the Gentle Fist. It looks like a few light, floating attacks, but it has actually severed my muscles."
Raizo his teeth and endured the pain as he explained to his people.
Then everyone understood...
It turns out that those few fingers weren't just some point in the air, but rather severed muscles inside his body.
Hizashi shook his head humbly and said, "It's only because it's a friendly spar that Chief Raizo is letting me win. If it were a life-or-death battle, you would still be capable of fighting, and you would have a better chance of winning in the end."
"Hahaha."
Kaguya Raizo laughed upon hearing this, "Severing muscles isn't that fatal for our Kaguya Clan. In a normal sparring match, there's no need to fight to that extent."
As he spoke, he walked to the side.
He took a step, and immediately grimaced, cold sweat pouring down his forehead.
While a severed muscle isn't fatal, it makes movement extremely difficult, unless it's a life-or-death battle...
Hizashi stepped forward and helped Raizo.
"I know a little bit of Medical Ninjutsu, I can heal you, let's go to the side for now."
"Good."
Kaguya Raizo slightly.
He was led a couple of steps by one hand when he suddenly sensed something was wrong and abruptly turned his head. "You know Medical Ninjutsu?"
Hyuga Clan...
Medical Ninjutsu?
Are you kidding me!
Kaguya Raizo was incredulous, his face filled with astonishment.
Hizashi Hyuga nodded calmly. "Times have changed, Hyuga Clan must also make positive changes, otherwise how can they keep up with the times?"
Have times changed?
But why didn't he feel anything?
Kaguya Raizo looked dazed, not understanding why Hiashi kept saying "times have changed".
Is it Konoha?
He pondered for a few seconds, and before he knew it, he had followed Hizashi from the center of the dojo to the edge, where he was helped to sit down.
The Hizashi didn't lie.
The next moment, he activated his Byakugan, gathered Chakra, and used Medical Ninjutsu to inject the Chakra into Raizo's body.
Pressure Point Strike can injure, but it can also heal.
Kaguya Raizo sensed the changes in his body. After a dozen seconds, he felt that his body had returned to normal and he could move freely again.
The Hyuga Clan, unbelievable!
Before today, he would never have believed that the Hyuga Clan would be associated with Medical Ninjutsu, and that they would be so skilled at it.
Raizo carefully observed Hizashi.
Then he leaned closer. "You're not Hiashi, you should be Hizashi, right?"
"!!!"
Hizashi Hyuga didn't show any unusual expression, but he was inwardly startled.
He didn't realize where he had slipped up.
but...
"Raizo, you're joking."
"Haha, you two brothers are very similar. Even if you imitate them very well, there will still be differences, and..."
Kaguya Raizo said solemnly, "We, the Kaguya Clan, rely not on our eyes, but on our intuition. I sense that you are Hizashi!"
A slight smile played on Hizashi's lips.
"As expected of Raizo, the head of the Raizo family. Yes, I am indeed Hizashi Hyuga, but I also represent my elder brother."
I believe it.
Kaguya Raizo.
After confirming the other party's identity, he admired Hyuga Hiashi.
He had several encounters with Hiashi.
They are capable.
but...
"After I found out it was you, I realized you're quite different from him. Compared to your brother, I prefer you; you're straightforward and don't have as many hidden agendas as him."
Kaguya Raizo grinned and said, "Tell me, what exactly is the Hyuga Clan trying to do?"
"Although I concealed my identity, it was also out of consideration for the current situation; the purpose remains the same."
Hizashi answer.
Kaguya Raizo looked into the distance and said, "The Kaguya Clan may truly be on the verge of collapse, but can your Hyuga Clan guarantee that once you bring them back, they will be able to pass on their bloodline?"
He laughed and said, "To be honest, I don't believe in Hiashi."
"Anyone other than children can come to Konoha."
Hizashi Road.
Kaguya Raizo was somewhat surprised, and he turned to look at Hizashi.
Are you sure?
The Hyuga Clan can make the decision to take away children, but adults...
That's not it.
This requires approval from above.
Kaguya Raizo likes to be straightforward, but that doesn't mean he's stupid; he can think things through when he's calm.
only...
After thinking for a moment, Raizo gave up.
"Is it from Konoha?"
"The village certainly shares this intention; in fact, we are already prepared to go to war with Kirigakure."
Hizashi Road.
To be honest, even Kaguya Raizo himself was tempted.
This is Konoha!
Although Konoha has not yet shown the invincible power it once possessed, it has already begun to show some signs of it.
If I go to Konoha...
"Hizashi, I don't trust Hiashi, but can you guarantee you'll treat my people well?"
Kaguya Raizo's expression was serious.
Hizashi nodded. "Of course, the Hyuga Clan and the Kaguya Clan share the same roots, and Konoha has no reason to mistreat the Kaguya Clan."
He paused slightly, then chuckled, "Do you know about the Iburi Clan?"
"The Iburi Clan?"
Kaguya Raizo blankly at him, then shook her head. "Never heard of them before. They must be a very weak family, right?"
"Yes, they were weak, and their Kekkei Genkai had a huge problem, but after joining Konoha, we helped them solve their Kekkei Genkai Disease."
Hizashi Road.
Kaguya Raizo was taken aback, then looked at the dojo in the distance, remained silent for a long time, and finally stood up and looked around without saying anything.
At this moment, Hizashi put in even more effort.
"Master Raizo, a friend of mine once said, 'Don't put all your eggs in one basket.'"
Don't put all your eggs in one basket...
Kaguya Raizo muttered to herself.
Then he shook his head. "Forget it, I don't want to think about it too much."
"Head of the Raizo family!"
The Hizashi, thinking the other party didn't want to talk, suddenly became anxious.
Who would have thought?
Raizo smiled faintly, stood up, and said, "Follow me."
He led the Hizashi away to the other side.
The Hizashi paused for a few seconds, then quickly followed.
Before long, he followed Raizo to his residence.
"This should be your first time visiting our Kaguya Clan. As you said, the Kaguya Clan is no longer what it used to be."
Kaguya Raizo spoke.
Then, he sighed softly, "Our clan is warlike, but many have died in battle."
Kaguya Raizo led Hizashi to a group of houses.
The Kaguya Clan has a history spanning hundreds of years and is considered the most powerful ninja clan in the Land of Water, so naturally they have plenty of houses and clan land.
but.
It's clear that many of the houses are covered in dust.
Kaguya Raizo said, "Some of them are widows and orphans who have died, or women whose children were never even born... Take these people with you."
"For Konoha, children and women might be a better option."
Kaguya Raizo understood perfectly.
Konoha certainly doesn't want just anyone, and the Kaguya Clan can't possibly relocate the entire clan, leaving behind their fighting force...
It's also unfair to the remaining members of the Kaguya Clan.
He continued walking, his gaze eventually settling on the house in the corner.
Hizashi noted.
The air here is thick with the stench of blood.
What happened?
He turned to look at Kaguya Raizo.
Raizo said, "There are two here. One suffers from a bloodline disease, and the other is crippled. If they stay in the Land of Water, they will only be a burden, and their end will not be good. You should take them with you."
"What about the others..."
"The rest of us are warriors; we will not back down, much less run away!"
Kaguya Raizo's tone was full of pride.
This was their family's creed, passed down for hundreds of years, yet it left Hizashi speechless.
Two Kekkei Genkai families.
No matter how powerful they are, how can they fight against a mere ninja village?
The storm swept in, and only death awaited them.
He remained silent for a long time, but in the end, he offered no advice.
Hizashi could tell that this was Kaguya Raizo's final concession; he would not make any further compromises.
However, for the Hyuga Clan and Konoha, this is indeed not a bad thing.
If Kaguya were to relocate her entire clan, that would be a huge problem!
The current situation is satisfactory to both parties.
In the Land of Water, Kyohiko walked through the vast forest, his own aura blending into the surrounding trees and earth.
With the help of Wood Release, he can now easily blend into his surroundings by harnessing the power of nature, thus concealing his presence.
Furthermore, through his Transformation Technique, virtually no one can detect his presence.
This is an invisibility technique he created based on Wood Release.
Before him lay the ancestral land of the Yuki Clan.
"The Yuki Clan."
Such a large family, gone just like that.
Kyohiko gazed at this stretch of clan land and sighed inwardly.
The destruction of the Yuki Clan was only a matter of time.
but.
Without him, things might have been a few years later, but he brought it all forward.
Thump!
Kyohiko took out Kunai, carved the warning "Beware of Kirigakure" on the tree, and then disappeared into the forest.
The Yuki Clan has no connection with Konoha, so it's impossible for them to try to recruit the Kaguya Clan did.
All Kyohiko could do was warn them, hoping that as many as possible would survive, and then try to find a way to rescue a few survivors.
After carving the words, he quietly left.
After a long while, as dusk approached, a man and a woman returned from picking mushrooms in the forest. As they passed by, the woman suddenly said, "Look over there."
"What?"
The man turned his head and saw the sentence carved on the tree.
Beware of the Kirigakure?
What's the meaning?
They looked at each other, puzzled.
but.
Thinking of the recent "major event" in the family, their expressions suddenly changed.
Could it be that...
"Is Kirigakure going to attack us?"
The man muttered to himself.
Upon hearing this, the wife was so frightened that she dropped the basket on the ground.
What should we do?
They were well aware of Kirigakure's strength.
Although they were from the Yuki Clan, they couldn't guarantee their survival in the face of such a colossal creature.
"Maybe someone is just trying to scare us."
The man's voice was hoarse.
The possibility is extremely small!
"But who would inform our family? The Kaguya Clan?"
"Them? Heh."
The man shook his head.
Instead of trusting the Kaguya Clan's intellect, trust your own popularity.
After thinking it over, he said, "Let's go back to the clan first and inform the clan leader and the others, so they can prepare for battle as quickly as possible."
"But..."
"What's wrong?"
The man looked at his wife with a puzzled expression.
The wife, with a complicated expression, said, "I... I might be pregnant."
"Ah?"
The man was stunned for a moment, then, with a complicated and hesitant expression, he finally said, "In any case, let's inform the clan leader about this first and let him decide. After that, after that..."
He didn't speak, clearly still hesitant.
However, when he looked at his wife, his gaze gradually hardened.
Let's go.
"Um."
After touring the Yuki Clan's territory, Kyohiko arrived outside the Kaguya Clan's territory.
Based on what we've observed, the Hizashi seems to be working fairly well.
but.
Here, besides the Kaguya Clan ninjas, he also sensed many external enemies.
They are ninjas from Kirigakure!
"The Mist Village has already reached this point?"
Kyohiko frowned slightly.
This is not good news--
This means that Kirigakure is ready to attack the Kaguya Clan and Yuki Clan.
Previously, he had not sensed any enemies among the Yuki Clan.
Too.
Although both the Yuki Clan and the Kaguya Clan are powerful Kekkei Genkai families, the Kaguya Clan is more aggressive and has greater destructive power and strength.
After pondering for a moment, Kyohiko followed the same method, carving the words "enemy present" on the bark, then peeling it off and sending it to Hizashi via the Flying Thunder God technique.
At this Hizashi, Hizashi was having a private conversation with Raizo, discussing who would be going to Konoha with him.
A rough count revealed nine people, seven of whom were pregnant.
He felt immense pressure and was figuring out how to take it with him when he felt something press against his chest.
Um?
This is...
Hizashi touched it.
"What's wrong?"
Raizo was also having a headache when he saw Hizashi groping around in his chest.
After a moment, a piece of bark was turned out.
The Hizashi glanced at it, and his expression immediately changed.
Then...
Byakugan!
He activated his Byakugan and unleashed his Chakra to its fullest extent.
Before long, everything around came into view.
There are indeed enemies!
Although it was well hidden and far away, it still couldn't escape his eyes.
Besides, isn't that Kyohiko?
Unexpectedly, he ended up going to the Land of Water with them.
Hizashi was deeply moved, and his confidence grew even stronger.
He said, "Our intelligence from Konoha indicates that enemies are approaching. I just confirmed that the intelligence is accurate."
