?"Thank you."

Afterwards, outside Konoha Hyuga Clan's meeting room, Hyuga Hiashi stood at the door and thanked Yu sincerely.

"Thank you? Thank me for what?"

Turning to look at Hyuga Hiashi, looking at the Hyuga Clan patriarch with a rigid expression in front of him, Yu showed a meaningful smile on his lips.

Hearing Yu's words, Hyuga Hiashi was stunned, and immediately reacted. He looked at the twelve-year-old boy in front of him with some sigh, "Thank you for saving Hinata, thank you for saving Hizashi's life."

"Thank you also for convincing Lord Hokage so that Konoha did not compromise with Cloud Village, thus preserving the dignity of all of us as Konoha Ninja."

If Yu had not appeared today and successfully convinced Third Hokage and Konoha Ninja who were present, this Cloud Ninja incident would have had only two endings.

His daughter, Hyuga Clan Hinata Hyuga, the heir of the Main Family, will be kidnapped by Cloud Ninja, and Kekkei Genkai of Byakugan will fall into Cloud Village In the hands of, or his brother Hizashi Hyuga became his scapegoat, and was handed over as a victim of peace and interests by Konoha High Command and Hyuga Elder.

So even Hyuga Hiashi, who has an old-fashioned and strict personality, is really grateful to Yu for this matter.

"Master Hiashi, you are too polite..."

"The reason why I do this is not only for you, but also for myself."

Facing the Konoha oldest and most famous Hyuga Clan leader's thanks, Yu smiled slightly and his eyes fell on the pure and lovely face of Hinata who was still sleeping in Hiashi's arms. The corners of his mouth turned up slightly, "Besides... your daughter, Miss Hinata, is really cute..."

Hinata...

Seeing how much Yu loved his daughter Hinata, Hiashi also subconsciously looked down at Hinata, who was sleeping in his arms, with a smile on his old-fashioned face.

"Neji, come quickly and thank you Master Yu."

At this time, Hizashi Hyuga, who was next to him, also came over with a little boy of about four or five years old, with pure white eyes and long black hair.

Neji?

Noticing the timid young Hyuga Clan who was following Hizashi Hyuga, Yu's eyes flashed and he immediately recognized his identity.

Hyuga Neji--The only ninja who died in Konoha 12 in the anime. He is also the first ninja in Konoha 12 to truly rely on his own strength to become a Jonin, and is known as a genius ninja.

"Thank... Thank you, Master Yu."

Following his father to Yu, Hyuga Neji's big white eyes looked curiously at the white-haired and handsome big brother in front of him.

Although he was young and didn't know what exactly happened today, Neji still timidly said thank you.

"Master Yu, if it weren't for you today..."

"I will definitely become Master Hiashi's substitute. This is the inevitable fate for a ninja who is Hyuga Branch Family."

Standing in front of Yu, Hizashi Hyuga, who looked almost exactly the same as his brother Hiashi, spoke, but there was sadness and haze between his eyebrows that Hiashi did not have.

Destiny?

Yu Moran, he was very clear about the cruel system of the ninja world from the beginning, so he began to practice hard since he time traveled. For what reason? To break this fate and not to be influenced by anyone.

Fortunately, through Demon's help and his own efforts, he finally has the strength he has now. Coupled with his identity as a disciple of Third Hokage and his merits and reputation on the battlefield, he can finally control his own destiny.

"I don't believe in fate. I believe that as long as the strength reaches a certain level, everyone can control their own destiny."

After coming back to his senses, looking at Hizashi and Neji walking beside him, Yu seemed to mean something and said.

"Has your strength reached a certain level..."

"Master Yu, as the beloved disciple of Lord Hokage, has talents beyond the reach of ordinary people, so he can naturally control his own destiny, and we, as ninjas of the Hyuga Clan branch..."

Hearing what Yu said, Hizashi sighed softly, and then glanced at the ignorant Neji next to him, with some hope and expectation in his eyes, "If it is Neji... maybe it can change the fate of the Hyuga Clan in the future..."

"Master Yu, dad and the others all say that you are the most talented ninja in our village. Is this true?"

Neji, who had been following Yu and Hizashi all the way, still couldn't quite understand what they were saying. He just stared at Yu curiously with his big pure white eyes.

The most genius ninja?

Hearing Neji's innocent words, Yu smiled slightly, stretched out a hand and rubbed Neji's cute little head, "To a certain extent, it should be so."

"What!"

At this time, Neji pushed away Yu's hand that was ravaging his head, straightened his messed up hair, and shouted unconvincingly, "I will definitely surpass you in the future! Become the most talented ninja in the village!"

"Nonsense! Don't be rude to Master Yu!"

Hearing Neji's childish noise, Hizashi Hyuga suddenly turned pale, "Neji, you have to know that Master Yu is now as powerful a ninja as Lord Hokage!"

"As powerful as Lord Hokage..."

Neji was stunned for a moment. In his little head, Konoha's Lord Hokage was a bigger ninja than World's Strongest, but he quickly pouted again, "I don't care! Anyway, I will definitely surpass him and become a more powerful ninja than him, hum!"

"Hahaha... cute little devil."

Hearing Neji's innocent and stubborn noise, Yu was already amused by his cute appearance before Hizashi opened his mouth to scold him.

It is true that the main purpose of his coming forward to persuade Third Hokage and everyone today was not to hand over the body of Third Raikage that he had made into World King.

But being able to change the tragic fate of Hizashi Hyuga and Hyuga Neji in the anime made Yu feel relieved.

In a blink of an eye, dawn is approaching, the sky in the distance has turned white, and a new day is coming.

The three of them talked and laughed along the way, and then they parted ways when they reached a fork in the road.

Time passed and the Cloud Ninja incident came to an end.

Under the leadership of Third Hokage, Konoha High Command came forward to have peace talks with the Cloud Village envoy again.

Two Cloud Village jounins died in Konoha but Kekkei Genkai Byakugan did not get Hyuga Clan. Cloud Village's top brass was furious and demanded that Konoha hand over the bodies of the murderer and Third Raikage.

But this time Konoha High Command's attitude was surprisingly tough. Even under the premise that Cloud Village threatened to start another war, he did not make any concessions or compromises.

In desperation, Cloud Village had no choice but to give up. After all, after experiencing the consumption of Third Shinobi World War, Land of Lightning, who is strong on the outside and incompetent on the inside, has no intention of starting a war again.

Konoha Year 51.

In this year, Land of Fire and Land of Lightning, who had been at war for many years, signed a peace agreement. The people of the two countries cheered, which meant that the war for many years was finally over, and Third Shinobi World War finally came to an end.

But few people know that a person named Hizashi Hyuga almost became a small wave among the many sacrifices in this hard-won peace.
