A sense of panic erupted outside the Hyuga Clan Konoha, and a group of people quickly headed to Konoha Hospital.

early morning.

Tsunade, Biwako Sarutobi, and others walked out of the operating room.

Mother and child are safe!

"That's great, that's great!"

The women were very happy.

The level of Konoha Hospital is far superior to that of Kirigakure, and this time Tsunade and others personally took action, making for a truly impressive lineup.

This made them truly feel the meaning of "being valued".

Tsunade looked around, then finally turned to her back and asked, "How is Eiyu's physical condition now?"

"Not bad. Although we can't completely cure the Kekkei Genkai disease yet, with the help of Lord Orochimaru and Kyohiko, we've suppressed part of it, and the patient has recovered some color. We still need to observe further."

Kurenai Yuhi reports.

Tsunade nodded. "In that case, I'll go take a look. If it's suitable, I'll tell him the good news!"

"No need, I've already helped him up."

Kyohiko smiled.

Kaguya Eisuke's face was filled with excitement, his hands trembling uncontrollably. He looked anxiously and eagerly at the people behind him.

A short while later, Jaji carefully placed the cleaned and cared-for child into the machine.

"Make way!"

The crowd immediately parted to make way.

Kyohiko tugged at Kaguya Eisuke, signaling him to step aside as well.

He looked at the machine; inside was a wrinkled baby, looking quite ugly. Most newborns look like that, but what excited him was...

He felt an inexplicable closeness to the other person.

Child!

"My child!"

Kaguya Eisuke clasped her hands together, then bowed deeply, "Thank you! Without you, I might not have seen my child born!"

In the Kaguya Clan, dying in battle is an honorable thing, and those with bloodline diseases like him often fight a great battle before their illness becomes completely incurable, ultimately...

He died in his final "dance".

Based on his previous medical condition, he probably wouldn't survive until this year and would definitely die in battle before being born.

"It's nothing. Now that you've joined Konoha, you're part of Konoha. This is only natural."

Tsunade helped him up and offered words of comfort.

This is the first child born among the seven pregnant women.

They appear to be in very good health at the moment, and they are very likely to awaken their Kekkei Genkai the future. At the same time, they also represent seeds and the future!

"Very nice!"

On the periphery, Hizashi Hyuga sighed softly.

Kyohiko glanced at it and said, "In the future, you'll have children too, who knows, maybe one of them will be a genius."

"A genius? If I can't... perhaps I'd rather he were just an ordinary person."

Hizashi Hyuga sighed softly.

Kyohiko glanced at it, then said, "Let's go, I need your help with something else."

"Yes!"

After leaving the hospital and driving to the outskirts, Kyohiko made sure no one was around before whispering, "It didn't go very smoothly?"

"Have no idea."

Hizashi Hyuga sighed deeply, "I believe the Hyuga Clan will get better and better under his leadership, but I am filled with confusion and uncertainty about my own future and that of my children."

As time passed, there was still no progress on Hiashi's promise. He couldn't be sure of Hyuga Hiashi's attitude, whether he was genuinely willing to help him or just making empty promises.

"Hiashi is not one to take the initiative; he prefers to wait for opportunities to arise, and the other clan head is the same."

Kyohiko chuckled as he said this, "Perhaps this is the inertia of the powerful clans?"

Hizashi Hyuga was stunned for a moment.

Is the person Kyohiko is referring to Fugaku Uchiha?

That clan head seems to be like that too. The difference is that Fugaku Uchiha's Hyuga Hiashi, so they might be a little easier to get along with.

Essentially, neither of them are the type to take the initiative or seek change.

Do you know why?

"Because of comfort?"

Hizashi Hyuga came up with some reasons.

The succession of large clans is too comfortable, especially the Hyuga Clan, which often experiences no setbacks.

"Yes, especially for senior players like Hiashi, who can take time to gradually master and experiment. He needs stability and control..."

Kyohiko sighed softly.

Then, he suddenly stopped, seemingly lost in thought, "You wouldn't happen to be pregnant, would you?"

"Perhaps it's not entirely certain yet."

His eyes Hizashi.

Kyohiko remained silent for a few seconds.

The early end of the war and the large amount of reparations received from outside sources allowed the village's ninjas to live a relatively comfortable life. The graduation of the next generation of ninjas also allowed the village to handle its own requests.

so.

In fact, many Jonin have relatively little free time, for example...

Hizashi Hyuga.

Neji's premature birth is not impossible under these circumstances, and Naruto Uzumaki might even be born a year or two earlier.

In this way...

Kyohiko said, "In that case, his actions go against your urgent needs."

"Yes, so..."

Hizashi let out a long sigh.

He was in a state of confusion and didn't know what to do.

"We have no choice but to take the initiative!"

Kyohiko said.

Hizashi somewhat surprised and taken aback. "You mean, proactively..."

"Don't think too far ahead! What I mean is, if you're going to muddy things up in the Main House 'Main House affairs, then Main House need to expose their stupidity. Otherwise, how can you propose systemic reforms and replace them?"

Kyohiko reminded him.

Hizashi Hyuga time.

They stirred up trouble within the Main House.

madness.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, as if he had an idea.

This matter is both very difficult and very simple.

The Kaguya Clan!

These old fogies had long harbored designs on the few remaining members of the Kaguya Clan.

How many people are there now?

In the future, as these children multiply and intermarry, the population may grow from just a few to a dozen, eventually reaching the size of the Land of Water in Konoha.

Therefore, the Hyuga Clan had long had the saying of "using the Caged Bird to control the Kaguya Clan".

The secret agents behind these messages were several elders of the Main House.

"It seems you already have an idea."

"Yes, now is the perfect opportunity."

Hizashi Hyuga let out a breath.

"Come on!"

Kyohiko smiled.

As a transmigrator, he disliked the old men of the Hyuga Main House's Hyuga Clan.

Secondly, by instigating the Hizashi to "correct the wrongs" and eliminate internal conflicts, he would certainly receive a reward.

so.

He was pleased to see changes taking place within the Hyuga Clan.

This will not bring chaos to Konoha; it will only make Konoha's future better and better, because--

Rotten, withered branches and leaves are best removed.

The Hyuga Clan held its long-awaited clan meeting once again.

One reason is the recent surge of rumors, which has intensified discussions within the clan about the Kaguya Clan to the point where it has become unavoidable to address the issue.

Another reason, of course, is that the elders believe the time is ripe.

With the cooperation over the past year or two, the relationship and tacit understanding between Hyuga Hiashi and Hizashi Hyuga have become better and better, and their control over the clan has become stronger and stronger.

Some forms of control are subtle and gradual.

but.

Some of these actions were observed by everyone, and everyone was well aware of them.

Everyone understands this.

Hyuga Hiashi wants to control the entire clan!

It's not just about Branch House; it's about truly taking control of the entire Main House, rather than being content with the past situation of shared governance within the Main House.

This meeting, ostensibly to discuss the future of the Hyuga, is actually inextricably linked to the Hyuga Clan's "voice" in the political arena.

The elders wanted to assert their presence and make themselves appear more important.

"Hiashi, the Kaguya Clan has been in our village for a while now. They were saying they wanted to promote a union between the Hyuga Clan and Kaguya Clan. Could you perhaps go and mention it to the village?"

"Yes, a few rents are not important to our Hyuga Clan at all. What's important is our original plan and goal: to unite with the Kaguya Clan and give birth to an even stronger offspring."

The elders spoke one by one.

At this moment, a voice finally rang out. "We should control the Kaguya Clan. Many clan members support this, and we are representing the opinion of the clan."

Yes, yes, yes!

The sound immediately received unanimous praise.

Elder Kisai looked around, a look of confusion and bewilderment flashing across his face. Finally, his gaze fell on Hyuga Hiashi above him, and he moved his hand under the table.

He knew absolutely nothing about this!

These idiots didn't even consult him, completely excluding him, as if they tacitly agreed that he was pro- Hiashi.

Since that's the case...

He has no obligation to help these people.

Elder Kisai's eyes were downcast, as if he hadn't heard the discussions at the meeting, quietly waiting for things to turn out.

Hyuga Hiashi's expression remained calm, without a trace of anger. Instead, he nodded slightly, occasionally echoing some of the comments, as if he also agreed with them.

but.

Elder Kisai was very clear about one thing—

The saying "Don't look at what the other person says, but look at what they do" applies perfectly to Hyuga Hiashi.

Throughout the entire process, Hizashi Hyuga remained silent, quietly taking notes with a pen.

Elder Kisai found it hard to imagine what the other person was writing.

After considering his words for a moment, he cleared his throat and said, "Have you all finished speaking? I have some humble opinions, but I'm not sure if I should say them..."

The entire room fell silent.

The elders, naturally, did not want him to speak.

Hiashi to be deep in thought, then nodded slightly. "Elder Kisai, you are highly respected and have made many contributions to the family over the years, which everyone can see. Please feel free to offer any good suggestions you may have."

His attitude...

It wasn't said directly, but Kisai already understood.

"It's hardly a suggestion, Head of the Clan. When the Kaguya Clan agreed to come to Konoha, the village promised them autonomy. That piece of land was leased voluntarily by our Hyuga Clan, not at their request..."

Hyuga Kisai glanced around, "How come in your mouths, the Kaguya Clan has become a soft persimmon that we can easily crush, just because there are only a few of them now?"

"But don't forget what kind of family the Kaguya Clan is."

"They are a warrior race!"

"Even women and children will fight to the last man when faced with such insults!"

Hyuga Kisai's expression was serious. "If it comes to that, who will bear the consequences? You? Or will the entire Hyuga Clan pay the price for your stupidity?"

No one expected that Hyuga Kisai would suddenly utter such a series of words. The elders looked at each other, feeling somewhat regretful.

If only I had known this would happen...

They would never exclude Kisai; at least that way they could see the other party's attitude and then probe Hiashi's inclinations, so they wouldn't be in such a passive position as they are now.

Whether it's about jeopardizing the interests of the entire family or having Hyuga Kisai speak first, they don't know how to refute it.

Offending an honest person often leads to bad consequences.

Hyuga Hiashi glanced around and, seeing everyone silent, immediately asked, "Elder Kisai, what are your thoughts on how to get along with the Kaguya Clan?"

"Of course we want to be on good terms. They have a natural affinity with our Hyuga Clan and are allies. The Caged Bird Seal is meant to protect the Byakugan, not to manipulate others..."

Kisai swept his gaze across the group of elders present, let out a cold snort, and said with growing dissatisfaction, "I think some of you have forgotten the meaning of the Caged Bird Seal and are acting recklessly because you have the power!"

"Kisai, you!!! You..."

The elders were trembling with rage.

In their eyes, this was Hyuga Kisai's revenge!

but.

Everyone is fighting for the rights of "elders," so why can't we just be more tolerant?

A moment of silence fell.

At this moment, Hiashi said solemnly, "Elder Kisai, what you said reminds me of something that happened before, where the elders of the clan used members of the Branch House for experiments..."

"Even if Orochimaru uses ninjas from other villages, this kind of thing is still strictly forbidden. If I report this, those elders will at least be killed, and might even be labeled as missing-nin!"

Is someone like that suitable to be an elder?

Hyuga Hiashi spoke in a serious tone.

The elders immediately paled and waved their hands, saying, "We... we are only representing the voice of our people!"

"Clan members? Your Excellency, I have something I've been holding back for a long time. I may offend the elders of the Main House today, but for the sake of the Branch House members, I have no choice but to stand up!"

The only member who Branch House finally stood up.

Hizashi Hyuga.

He, who had been taking notes, finally stood up and presented what he had just written.

"This is the list of elders I just wrote down who advocate controlling the Kaguya Clan. The next page contains information I gathered from my investigations and inquiries within the clan. It has been confirmed that some elders from the Main House have ordered their respective Branch House disciples to spread such rhetoric, otherwise..."

A look of grief and indignation crossed Hizashi's face. "Otherwise, they'll kill the other side with the Caged Bird!"

"Hizashi, you're spouting nonsense!"

"I'm making baseless accusations? Don't you all use Caged Bird as a means of punishment and intimidation all day long? There are bloody handprints of our people on this; we've reached our limit..."

Hizashi Hyuga scanned the elders, finally fixing his gaze on the one who was jumping the most enthusiastically.

The man's face flushed red, and he said, "Hizashi, you want to disrupt my Main House? I won't let you get away with this!"

He had just formed a hand seal.

The Hizashi cried out in agony.

Bang!

Hiashi raised his hand and struck him, sending him flying and crashing heavily into a wooden pillar.

Hyuga Hiashi stood up, his face cold and filled with murderous intent, and said, "Elder Satoshi, first of all, Hizashi is my younger brother, and secondly, he is the head of the Branch House family. You want to kill him just for saying a few words? You've got too much of a temper!"

The old men were so frightened they fell silent.

Even Kisai was stunned, unable to react for a moment.

The Hiashi really did it!

"Who still thinks they can easily control the life and death of Branch House member? Let's see if your hands are faster than mine!"

The Hiashi's gaze swept across the room.

Hizashi's gaze was fearless.

For his child, he was willing to gamble everything, including the Branch House within the clan...

I'd love to!

He raised his voice and said, "Master, the Main House belongs to the Hyuga Clan, but doesn't the Branch House also Hyuga Clan? If it's about protecting the Main House, then I think keeping the head of the family line is enough; why have so many Main House!"

"What did you say?!!"

A group of old men erupted in anger, standing up one by one, their expressions a mixture of shock and rage.

Because they realized that the Hizashi was going to overturn the table and force everyone to Branch House!

"The Hizashi of the Main House's system was originally intended to help the clan head better maintain stability; the original intention was good. It's just that some people are too foolish and have broken the rules!"

Kisai quickly replied.

How can you just flip the table?

He didn't want all his descendants to become Branch House.

The Hizashi sneered, "They're foolish, but are their descendants any smarter? Aren't our descendants smarter too?"

As he spoke, he looked up and said, "Master, you are wise and powerful, but these elders... I, the Branch House, am not satisfied! Today I spoke only about the Branch House, without any selfish motives, but their insubordination certainly deserves punishment. Please discipline them!"

Having said that, he knelt on the ground to show his loyalty.

Hiashi's eyes gleamed. "You deserve punishment, but what you said is indeed a problem that has accumulated over Hyuga Clan's development. Elder Kisai, what do you say?"

"This, this..."

Hyuga Kisai was stunned. His gaze swept across the room, and a sudden realization dawned on him.

I am different from them.

I've always supported Hiashi!

and.

Hiashi's previous words had already made it clear that they had merit and qualifications, and that they would definitely be fine.

He immediately said, "Since we are having a meeting today, everyone should speak their minds. It is the duty of the Japanese clerk to advocate for the Hizashi of the Branch House property. I believe he is not only innocent, but also meritorious."
