Uchiha Three Brothers

"Anyway, the First was truly great. At the Valley of the End, he even said that for the sake of the village, he could kill his own clansmen, friends, family, even his brothers and sisters. So he decisively took out Uchiha Madara."

"But the Hyuga Clan can't do that. This clan head lacks that kind of ideological awareness. The Hyuga Clan's Original Intention in joining Konoha was simply that it was good to shelter beneath a large tree. With the Senju Clan holding the line up front, we could put in the effort, sacrifice a small number of clansmen on the battlefield, and gain the stable environment we deserved."

In other words, once the cost and return were no longer equal, the original alliance agreement naturally no longer counted.

"However, I don't necessarily have to lead the Hyuga Clan away. Right and wrong will naturally be proven by time. This clan head won't be stingy about giving Konoha a chance. It's also a chance for the Hyuga Clan itself."

Hitoshi spread his hands.

"You've all heard the intelligence from the front line. Kumogakure is getting restless."

"The Hyuga Clan's work from here on out has two points."

"First, restore Hyuga Glory on the front-line battlefield. It is our duty to offer the village a modest contribution and earn merit."

"Second, train the elites and be ready at any time to clean out the Rear Base with this clan head. Let's make running away and training troops bloom together!"

There was actually a third point.

That was to continue to Increase Efforts in fooling Fugaku, getting him to stand up and charge ahead, so that the Old Village Chief's attention would be entirely focused on the Uchiha Clan, leaving him no time to trouble the Hyuga Clan.

Otherwise, given the Old Village Chief's temperament, Hitoshi had openly sided with the Uchiha Clan during the previous High-Level Meeting. The Old Village Chief would definitely Try Every Means to test him and Hint at things. Hitoshi wasn't afraid, but dealing with those politicians in empty pleasantries was too annoying.

Looking up at Hizashi Hyuga and Hyuga Hiashi, Hitoshi Clan Head saw confusion on their faces.

That was perfectly normal.

At the time, The Two Brothers Didn't Know that Everything He Would Encounter in the future would be even more Frustrated than what the Uchiha Clan was facing now.

According to the Original Work, after the Nine-Tails Attack, Kumogakure launched a massive invasion. The Hyuga Clan Acted brilliantly, catching the Fourth Raikage's attention and leading to the later incident of Kumogakure abducting Hinata under the moonlight.

But who could have imagined that the Hyuga Clan's outstanding battlefield performance would instead become their crime, with the clan head of that generation nearly being Forced to Death?

So What Virtue or Ability did he have to continue staying in this village?

Aside from giving The Two Brothers a warning at this time, Hyuga Hitoshi also planned to Increase Efforts on future battlefields, upgrading from a commendable performance to becoming one of the meritorious contributors.

When that time came, the contrast of being treated coldly would only become even more severe!

The influence of a meritorious contributor leaving the village and that of some nobody leaving were completely different.

Not to Mention doing so under Circumstances where the village was In the Wrong. The feeling of standing tall as a rogue ninja would be unbelievably satisfying.

As for whether his battlefield performance would definitely cause casualties among his clansmen, Hyuga Hitoshi had his own plans for that, so there was No Need to Worry.

"The more I listen, the more I Always Feel that Konoha's internal affairs are even dirtier than Sunagakure's."

After Hizashi Hyuga and Hyuga Hiashi withdrew with grave expressions, Hyuga Pakura naturally leaned In One's Arms against Hitoshi.

Back when she had become a sacrificial pawn of Sunagakure and Kirigakure and came under siege, it was Hyuga Hitoshi who had saved her.

At the time, she Only Felt that her entire world had collapsed. Even the village for which she had Fought a Bloody Battle could not be trusted—then who else could she trust?

What had everything this so-called Sunagakure hero did been for?

Until Now, Pakura had not let go of the matter. She understood very clearly that if not for Hyuga Hitoshi, she would have died on that road to Kirigakure.

So when she Readily Complied and offered herself to him, she had simply treated it as being mounted by a pig and didn't resist. Her virgin body could count as repayment for saving her life; once given, it was given. Besides, if she were asked to leave this bastard now, she probably wouldn't be able to bear it.

Yet she had never let go of this grudge. She had merely buried it deep in her heart. If she had a chance, she would definitely choose to take revenge on Sunagakure, especially Rasa.

But from the looks of it, Konoha had no fewer filthy problems than Sunagakure. Its Third Hokage was even more despicable in his methods than Rasa!

"Your Hokage and Rasa are cut from the same cloth."

Thinking of this, Pakura Mocked him.

Yet she heard Hyuga Hitoshi give a disdainful sneer.

"Rasa?"

"A mere Grain of Sand, not even a fraction of the Old Village Chief!"

"When it comes to the Internal Fist Technique, he isn't even worthy of carrying the Old Village Chief's shoes. And fundamentally, he isn't the same kind of person as the Old Village Chief. He's completely a Crazy Person."

After all, considering what Gaara had gone through, it was hard to believe Rasa didn't have some serious mental illness.

Could a normal person manipulate someone's closest relative into assassinating a Jinchuriki, deliberately provoke the Jinchuriki, and see whether the Jinchuriki Wouldn't Go Berserk?

Sigh, Rasa just refused to take the usual path. To provoke Gaara into going berserk, he even specifically had someone tell Gaara that he had been betrayed by a loved one.

A Jinchuriki trial was meant to cultivate a Strong Inner Heart, sure, but you had to take reality into account.

The kid already couldn't sleep, yet they kept provoking him to death.

Besides, use your Buttocks and think about it—how old was Gaara back then?

It was already Not Easy for a child of a few years old to properly understand something, and you still wanted to provoke him to death to see whether he would go berserk. Was this really a method an adult could come up with to confirm a Jinchuriki?

Setting aside the protagonists, the other ninja villages didn't abuse their Jinchuriki that badly either. Wasn't this forcing him to go berserk?

In other words, if you were so amazing and could suppress the One-Tail multiple times, why not become the Jinchuriki yourself? In the end, you simply lacked the courage.

Mm.

Comparing Rasa to the Old Village Chief was a complete insult to the Old Village Chief!

Not even mentioning the Jinchuriki, the number of his own people the Old Village Chief had Danzo eliminate dwarfed Rasa's numbers. What right did he have to be mentioned in the same breath as the Old Village Chief?

"You seem pretty proud of that."

Pakura stared at Hyuga Hitoshi in shock. She completely failed to understand her man's competitive streak sometimes, just like how he wouldn't move unless she called him Daddy.

"After all, not everyone can handle the Old Village Chief's fist technique with ease."

Hyuga Hitoshi said smugly.

What did that have to do with you being proud?

Pakura was Lost in Thought. A Moment Later, just as she was about to speak, she looked up and saw a group of people in the distance. Delight appeared on her Pretty Face.

She squeezed herself out of Hitoshi Clan Head's arms and waved toward the distance.

The beautiful woman over there, who was holding a baby, also looked delighted. She immediately handed the baby to the child who had come along with her, then quickly walked over.

However, she was not in a hurry to Catching Up with Pakura. Instead, she blushed as she glanced at Hitoshi Clan Head, then softly said something to Hyuga Hitoshi.

Hyuga Hitoshi was Stunned. He blankly glanced at Sasuke, who was being held by the Filial Son, and fell Lost in Thought. Seeing him like this, a trace of gloom flashed across the beautiful woman's face.

But her disappointment did not last long. Hyuga Hitoshi, ever observant of others, had a much Sharper Gaze. He leaned close to the beautiful woman's Ears and whispered something else. Her face reddened even more, and she coquettishly shoved Hitoshi before going to greet Hyuga Pakura.

Was I supposed to see that?

In the distance.

Uchiha Shisui, standing beside the Filial Son holding Uchiha Sasuke, Only Felt immense pressure.

He somewhat regretted coming along. Now that he had seen something he Should Not have seen, would Lord Hitoshi silence him?

After all, this concerned the clan head's wife and affected the Uchiha Clan's reputation. So after returning, should he remind the Clan Head?

But wouldn't it be inappropriate to say it too directly?

The more Shisui thought about it, the tighter his brow furrowed.

Until that tall figure, carrying a Sense of Oppression, arrived before them and without another word snatched Itachi's little brother away, lifting Uchiha Sasuke into the air by the back of his collar for a careful look.

Shisui finally couldn't hold it together anymore. His eyes became filled with terror, and even Itachi on the ground wore a complicated expression.

There was no other reason.

It was because, after tireless effort, the tiny infant finally called out the first word he had learned.

"Dad~"

And Hitoshi Clan Head couldn't hold it in either, replying with a sharp gaze and a single word.

"Fuck."
