Ninja of Every Clan Storm the Compound

"The branch family..." Hiashi Hyuga watched his younger brother leave, his expression complicated.

Brother, shouldn't you have resented the main family?

Or had you already accepted the fate of being in the branch family?

Hizashi Hyuga had not completely accepted his fate as a member of the branch family. He had always harbored resentment toward the main family.

But he did not hate his own brother because of the main family.

The branch family was destined to have no choice, yet Hizashi Hyuga refused to accept that fate. If possible, he wanted to try deciding his own fate for once.

He was not dying for the main family, but to protect his brother.

From beginning to end, Hizashi Hyuga had never blamed his brother. He was merely resisting the injustice of his fate as a member of the branch family.

This concerned the survival of the entire Hyuga Clan. Hizashi Hyuga did not dare let down his guard in the slightest, activating his Byakugan as he carefully left the compound.

No one knew where Hizashi Hyuga had gone, aside from Hiashi Hyuga and Hizashi Hyuga himself.

Time was pressing, and both sides tacitly raced against the clock.

Since it concerned Xiu Uchiha's plan, no one connected to Xiu Uchiha dared to be the slightest bit negligent.

Uchiha Shisui, Orochimaru, and Fugaku Uchiha personally arrived at the Hyuga Clan.

According to Hiashi Hyuga's plan, the old fossils of the Hyuga Clan had to meet the Death God before sunset.

Orochimaru had been personally summoned by Fugaku Uchiha. Otherwise, someone of Hiashi Hyuga's status would not have been able to call upon Orochimaru.

At present, Orochimaru was merely being cold-shouldered by Hiruzen Sarutobi in Hidden Leaf and had not been branded a rogue ninja.

Hiruzen Sarutobi did not want the cause and details of this matter exposed too widely, since it was hardly something honorable.

If Hiashi Hyuga did not act, then so be it. But once he did, he uprooted the problem completely.

Not only did he eliminate those old fossils, he also slaughtered every clansman who had been deeply influenced by them.

Their descendants were forcibly designated as branch family members by Hiashi Hyuga and branded with the Caged Bird. Even if they harbored rebellious intentions in the future, they would never be able to cause trouble.

After seeing Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan, Hiashi Hyuga became even more confident in the Uchiha Clan.

With three pairs of Mangekyō Sharingan, even the Uchiha of the Warring States Era could not compare to the Uchiha Clan, could they?

With those stubborn old fossils no longer holding him back, Hiashi Hyuga directly ordered the entire clan into lockdown. Relying on his own prestige, he shifted the matter onto Hidden Leaf.

Having decided to act that night, Minato Namikaze kept Hiashi Hyuga in the Hidden Leaf office before nightfall on the pretext that the war situation was tense.

"Before my brother left, he instructed me to immediately seek out Lord Orochimaru."

Hizashi Hyuga appeared at the Konoha Military Police Force. At this point, even approaching the Uchiha Compound was no longer possible.

Getting close would be no different from alerting the enemy.

Orochimaru calmly handed the experimental data to Kabuto Yakushi, removed his white lab coat, and said, "So Hidden Leaf will make its move against the Uchiha tonight."

Hizashi Hyuga said urgently, "Before leaving, my brother also said that the entire Hyuga Clan would stand or fall alongside the Uchiha Clan."

"In this battle, the Hyuga Clan will never abandon its allies."

"Lord Orochimaru, please inform Lord Fugaku as soon as possible."

"Don't rush."

Orochimaru recalled the item Xiu Uchiha had given him before leaving. He formed hand seals and used the Summoning Jutsu.

A python larger than a man was summoned. Upon seeing Orochimaru, it immediately bowed respectfully. "Lord Orochimaru."

Unless he encountered a battle he could not resolve, Orochimaru would not summon the untamable Manda.

"Give it to me." Orochimaru extended a hand toward it. The snake obediently opened its mouth and spat out a sticky kunai.

Orochimaru took the kunai without changing expression and said blandly, "Let's go."

"Yes, Lord Orochimaru."

Hizashi Hyuga did not dare ask more questions and respectfully followed behind him.

Night fell.

In addition to Hiruzen Sarutobi's five hundred death warriors, there were also elite ninja from every clan who had remained with their families.

For the sake of revenge, every clan had spared no effort.

Because of the war, Hidden Leaf's streets were already under curfew. One silent ninja figure after another appeared atop the rooftops.

These ninja had only one destination: the Uchiha Compound.

The Konoha Military Police Force had long since been emptied out. Having received the news, Hiruzen Sarutobi knew that the operation might have been exposed.

With the arrow on the string, it had to be fired.

A great many people were involved in this operation.

The Sarutobi, Nara Clan, Yamanaka Clan, Akimichi Clan, Inuzuka Clan, Aburame Clan, Shimura Clan, and others all took part.

United in purpose, they made the Uchiha Clan look like some great villain.

Uchiha Shisui's keen senses had detected that something was wrong in advance. Before Hizashi Hyuga and Orochimaru arrived, he had already informed Fugaku Uchiha to prepare.

Every Uchiha clansman capable of fighting had assembled, while the elderly and children had already been moved into the underground safe passage.

Fugaku Uchiha donned the battle armor from the Warring States Era that had gathered dust for years.

Beside him, Uchiha Mikoto's Three-Tomoe Sharingan emerged in her eyes. Dressed in battle attire, she looked valiant and heroic.

As the mother who had given birth to two genius ninja, Uchiha Itachi and Sasuke Uchiha, how could Uchiha Mikoto have been an ordinary woman?

Once the female genius of the Uchiha Clan, Uchiha Mikoto had displayed formidable talent from childhood.

In battle, she had once fought two Jonin alone and killed them both.

"I wonder how Itachi is doing now."

Uchiha Mikoto was not worried about herself, but about Itachi, who was training in the Root Organization.

Fugaku Uchiha reassured her, "Don't worry. Hiashi Hyuga will not betray us."

Uchiha Shisui flashed before them, his expression extremely anxious. "Lord Fugaku, we've been surrounded."

"Is that so? They came at just the right time."

Fugaku Uchiha's Three-Tomoe Sharingan swiftly transformed into Mangekyō Sharingan, intense killing intent erupting from his eyes.

Outside Fugaku Uchiha's home, a group of ninja with red eyes waited silently, each of them filled with killing intent.

Uchiha Ying, Huo Uchiha, Uchiha Okamoto, and Uchiha Yangdou stood at the very front, fully prepared.

Hizashi Hyuga and Orochimaru stood silently in a corner, watching the scene.

After Fugaku Uchiha came out, he first nodded to Orochimaru, then looked at Hizashi Hyuga.

"When will the Hyuga Clan's reinforcements arrive?"

Hizashi Hyuga hurriedly took out a signal flare. "Rest assured, Lord Fugaku. Our Hyuga Clan is already prepared."

"Once this signal flare is launched, the Hyuga ninja will attack from within and without."

Fugaku Uchiha was somewhat skeptical. "Are you certain Hiruzen Sarutobi did not leave any contingencies for the Hyuga Clan?"

Hizashi Hyuga assured him with complete confidence, "Rest assured. Our Hyuga Clan has its own methods."

Fugaku Uchiha nodded doubtfully. Even without the Hyuga Clan, the Uchiha would not lose tonight.

Boom! Boom! Boom!!!

The gates of the Uchiha Compound were forcibly blasted open.

"Kill!!!"

The hate-filled ninja of every clan surged into the Uchiha Compound like a swarm of locusts.
