Uzuki Yugao's expression was disappointed.
If Gekko Hayate could have done it, he would have stood up without hesitation when Uchiha Lengfeng was bullying her.
Even if he couldn't stop Uchiha Lengfeng in the end and got beaten up.
She would have been touched.
But Gekko Hayate ignored her and only came over to greet her after the incident, pretending he hadn't seen anything.
"Of course I can!"
Seeing those disappointed beautiful eyes, Gekko Hayate's eyes fluttered.
Could it be... Yugao knew he was secretly watching at the time?
Impossible!
With his stealth skills, he absolutely couldn't have been discovered!
Thinking of this, his expression became even more determined!
"Excuse me."
At this moment, Hyuga Kagami suddenly spoke. He glanced lightly at Gekko Hayate, lost in thought.
It seems... this guy is the one Uzuki Yugao mentioned.
The one who hid in the dark and watched her being bullied?
"Your business has nothing to do with me."
Hyuga Kagami's expression became stern, his white eyes possessing a commanding aura!
"But don't be presumptuous in the Hyuga Clan's territory!"
His voice gradually turned cold: "Otherwise, I don't mind asking your Gekko Clan to come pick you up!"
Pick me up?
Gekko Hayate's eyes chilled. If he said one more word, he had no doubt that the person in front of him would beat him up severely!
It would be truly humiliating to have his clan come pick him up then!
"I didn't do anything. Although this is your Hyuga Clan's territory, it's also Konoha's territory!"
Gekko Hayate gritted his teeth and forced himself to say.
How could he lose face in front of Yugao?
He looked at the forehead protector on Hyuga Kagami's forehead, his eyes lit up, as if he had found his confidence: "Besides, you're just from the Hyuga Branch Family, a good-for-nothing branded with the Caged Bird Seal. What right do you have to talk to me!"
People from the Hyuga Branch Family have no status!
They definitely wouldn't dare to provoke me!
Moreover, this guy in front of me looks... quite refined, with a touch of otherworldly, elegant demeanor?
Uzuki Yugao's heart panicked!
Isn't Gekko Hayate looking for trouble?
She had seen Hyuga Kagami's power. Although he looked harmless now, he was definitely not someone who would tolerate being provoked!
"Oh?"
Hyuga Kagami smiled, the corners of his mouth curling up, revealing a cruel arc, his white eyes flashing with a commanding light!
His voice was deep, like thunder!
In an instant!
He seemed to have become a different person. The refined, elegant youth from before had vanished without a trace. Hyuga Kagami was full of wildness and coldness!
Boom!
Gekko Hayate didn't even have time to react before he was sent flying with a slap, soaring backward five or six meters.
Several teeth flew out!
"You, how dare you lay a hand on me!"
Gekko Hayate was stunned, his entire head buzzing. He never dreamed that Hyuga Kagami would strike so ruthlessly and decisively!
Hyuga Kagami walked towards Gekko Hayate step by step, a rich smile on his lips: "What you meant just now was that everyone from the Hyuga Branch Family is a good-for-nothing branded with the Caged Bird Seal, right?"
"The Hyuga Branch Family is worthless, just pawns and tools in the hands of the Main Family, right?"
This was perfect timing.
He was just worrying about not finding a scapegoat to break the balance between the Hyuga Clan's Main Family and Branch Family.
Gekko Hayate had just thrown himself into it.
This was perfect timing.
A scapegoat, coming to his doorstep!
"No! No!"
Gekko Hayate's eyes widened in terror. "I never said that, I didn't say that! You're framing me!"
That wasn't what he meant at all.
But seeing Hyuga Kagami's smiling face, he suddenly panicked!
"Trash!"
"Before you offend someone, check if you can afford to!"
Hyuga Kagami shot a cold glance at Gekko Hayate.
He slapped him again!
Against the weak Gekko Hayate, he didn't even need to use Thunder Bagua. Simple physical strength was enough to crush him!
"Kagami-kun... let's... stop."
Uzuki Yugao's beautiful eyes trembled slightly. "Someone will die if this continues."
Although she was disappointed in Gekko Hayate, she never intended for him to be bullied like this.
Those were two different concepts.
Hyuga Kagami's expression was indifferent, and he didn't even glance at Uzuki Yugao!
No one could disrupt his plan!
Women only slowed down the speed of drawing one's sword!
"Hyuga Kagami, what are you doing!"
Just then, several Hyuga Clan guards shouted sternly and rushed over!
"You're attacking a fellow villager within the Hyuga Clan, are you insane!"
"Stop it at once!"
Their faces were extremely grim!
The Hyuga Clan had always carried themselves with the dignity of nobles. While they kept their distance from ordinary people, they often helped others, earning them an excellent reputation in Konoha.
This reputation could not be ruined by anyone!
Gekko Hayate seemed to see a savior and quickly begged for mercy. "Save me!"
"Hyuga Kagami attacked me for no reason! Your Hyuga Clan absolutely cannot let him get away with this!"
"Otherwise, I will definitely have my father report this to the Hokage! Your Hyuga Clan will not escape blame!"
Sparring was one thing.
That was reasonable.
But attacking a fellow villager within the village without cause was a major taboo!
Hyuga Kazu, as a squad leader, looked grimly at the bruised and swollen Gekko Hayate. He was a mess!
He knew Gekko Hayate too.
The guy was quite good-looking, rather handsome, but now his face was swollen like a pig's head, and he had lost four or five teeth. Where was any trace of handsomeness?
He looked more like a pig's head!
"Hyuga Kagami attacked me arbitrarily!"
Gekko Hayate cried miserably. "Is this the rule of your Hyuga Clan?!"
"I will absolutely not let this go. The Hyuga Clan must give me an explanation!"
Anger burned in his eyes!
So what if your Hyuga Clan was so powerful?
In Konoha, all clans were equal. I don't dare to provoke those crazy Uchiha, but I still don't dare to provoke your law-abiding Hyuga Clan?
"Hyuga Kagami!"
Hyuga Kazu's white eyes flashed with anger, and he shouted, "Apologize to Gekko Hayate immediately, and then come with me to the Clan Head to confess your sins. You've gone too far!"
His face was grim.
Could it be that the reputation the Hyuga Clan had maintained for years was about to be destroyed by Hyuga Kagami?
His expression was indignant!
He was unwilling!
Hyuga Kagami let out a sneer, not backing down at all, his voice calm and unwavering.
"This person said that those of the Hyuga Branch Family are birds in a cage, all useless. And that those of the Hyuga Branch Family have no value, merely pawns in the hands of the main family."
"If it were you, could you endure it? Be a coward? I did nothing wrong today!"
Then, his gaze coldly fixed on Gekko Hayate.
"Even if things were to happen again, I would still act this way!"
"You're not convinced? Then let your Gekko Clan leader go find the Hokage!"
His voice boomed like thunder!
It was deafening!
His white eyes radiated an awe-inspiring aura!
At this moment, Hyuga Kagami was like a god, sacred and inviolable!
To put it plainly, Hyuga Kagami meant, "I'm going to beat you up."
If I had to do it again, I'd still beat you up!
Unrivaled dominance!
