Everyone was stunned!
That was way too damn bold. Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura were old and frail. Though they weren't particularly strong, they were still disciples of the Second, born into the right lineage and held in high regard.
And now he'd openly torn into them!
"Hyuga Kagami, what did you say?!"
Utatane Koharu was about to lose her mind. Her eyes were bloodshot, and she was grinding her teeth in fury!
"You can eat whatever you want, but you can't just say whatever you want!"
She roared, "As a member of Konoha High Command and a disciple of the Second, how could I possibly be afraid of death? Everything I do is for the Land of Fire!"
At this point, she was talking nonsense.
There was no point in saying more.
"Fine."
Hyuga Kagami folded his arms and sneered. "Then let's follow your plan and negotiate. We'll see if the hot-tempered Raikage accepts."
His gaze was full of scorn and disdain.

He sat back down, but after what he'd just said, no one dared underestimate him.
This guy was ruthless enough to go head-to-head with the Hokage's faction!
"Everyone's acting for Konoha and the Land of Fire. We simply have different opinions and ideas."
Sarutobi Hiruzen chuckled, his face as thick as a city wall. "Since no one has any other objections, we'll negotiate as Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura suggested. It's not that we've forgotten our hatred."
"It's that we're seeking peace for the majority!"
His expression was compassionate.
As if he'd made some tremendous sacrifice.
Hyuga Kagami looked at him with contempt. In a way, if they couldn't get revenge in the present, then
