Chapter 21: The Cute Kurama, and the Hyuga's Rebelliousness!
At this moment, Uchiha Kazama was still checking his System Panel.
Throughout the night, the rewards had never stopped coming.
Looking at the value of that pupillary power, it was a long string of numbers.
That was hardly surprising; even the genjutsu of the Mangekyō Sharingan would be directly reflected back.
Physique!
Chakra!
They had already far exceeded the level of a Kage Level.
Uchiha Kazama had no doubt that if he opened the Eight Gates right now, he could kick an Otsutsuki straight to pieces!
Little System, isn't this great...
Yet you insisted on making me follow the plot and act like a dog for Konoha!
When one has power, the very first thing to consider is how to become the master!
After speaking, Uchiha Kazama closed the panel.
As for the abilities he had acquired, he would slowly experience them in the upcoming battles.
Looking at the young boy beside him, Uchiha Kazama entered his body once again.
"Yo, Fourth Hokage!"
Uchiha Kazama looked at Minato Namikaze, who was waiting there, and greeted him enthusiastically.
"Uchiha Kazama, you promised me..."
"Naruto is not dead!"
"Kurama... shouldn't go berserk either..."
Before Minato Namikaze could become angry and question him, Uchiha Kazama slowly spoke up.
Although Naruto's body had suffered quite a bit of damage.
With the physique of the Uzumaki Clan plus Nine-Tails Chakra, recovery was just a matter of minutes.
At the same time, he pointed to Kurama at the side, who was currently acting as well-behaved as a little puppy.
The situation right now did not violate his previous agreement with Minato Namikaze.
"I saw it all."
"I hope you can keep your promise."
"Of course, if you don't keep your promise, I'll find a way to kill you."
Minato Namikaze looked at Uchiha Kazama with a solemn expression.
"Fine."
"You and I both know that such threats are useless against me."
"Right now, you have no choice but to choose to trust me."
After saying that, Uchiha Kazama waved his hand.
Then he walked toward Kurama.
Thud!
He kicked Kurama, who was lying on the ground and playing dead.
That was right, Kurama didn't want to deal with the two of them in the least at the moment.
Minato Namikaze had forcefully split him into two halves and then sealed him inside the body of an infant.
As for the other one, it was a guy of the Uchiha possessing the Mangekyō Sharingan, whom he simply couldn't afford to provoke.
Originally, Kurama had planned to wait until both of them disappeared before opening his eyes.
Little did he know, Uchiha Kazama would directly give him a kick.
With no other choice, Kurama had no choice but to stand up whimpering, and then stare fixedly at Uchiha Kazama before him.
He didn't even dare to show a trace of resentment.
"Kurama, give me a portion of your origin."
"Right, get along well with Naruto in the future."
"Although you Tailed Beasts apparently cannot be killed, but... I probably still have ways to torture you."
"So, you'd better be a good boy and listen."
As Uchiha Kazama spoke, the Mangekyō Sharingan slowly surfaced in his eyes.
Feeling that irresistible pupillary power radiating from Uchiha Kazama's body, Kurama extended a paw and handed a portion of his own origin chakra to Kazama.
"Fine."
No matter how aggrieved and furious Kurama felt...
Even now, he did not dare to put on airs in front of Uchiha Kazama.
That vast pupillary power-Kurama knew very clearly that it possessed no ability to resist whatsoever.
"There, I told you, Kurama is still very obedient."
"So, you don't need to worry."
"Naruto will grow up much faster under my guidance."
"When a suitable opportunity arises, hand over the Kurama inside your body to me."
After finishing speaking, Uchiha Kazama vanished from the spot.
Minato Namikaze looked at the well-behaved Kurama before him, and many thoughts stirred in his heart.
If Kurama could accompany Naruto's growth in this manner, then...
Minato Namikaze smiled.
It seemed this kind of method was indeed the most appropriate...
Immediately afterward, Minato Namikaze also vanished from the spot.
Watching the two people he could not afford to provoke disappear, Kurama finally collapsed onto the ground, enjoying a moment of peace.
The Hyuga Clan Compound.
"Patriarch, Uchiha Ryunen came by just a moment ago."
"He said..."
"If we fail to arrive at the Hokage Building within half an hour, it will be considered treason against the village."
A Shinobi of the Hyuga Clan Branch Family hurried into the main hall of the Hyuga Clan, his face filled with helplessness.
As a member of the Branch Family, he had zero opportunity to stand before these Main Family members.
If not for the fact that this current matter was simply too urgent.
He likely wouldn't even have possessed the qualification to enter this place.
"What?!"
"Patriarch, this Uchiha Clan is simply too arrogant!"
"Even when the Third was around, they wouldn't dare treat our Hyuga Clan like this!"
"That's right, Patriarch, we cannot simply submit like this. I refuse to believe the Uchiha have truly gone mad and would actually make a move against us!"
"If the Uchiha really dare to do this, they will definitely force all the shinobi clans to rise up against them!"
"Indeed, instead of figuring out how to curry favor with us right now, the Uchiha actually maintain such an attitude. We absolutely must not go!"
It had to be said that compared to within the Uchiha Clan, where Uchiha Fugaku had the support of the Conservative Faction which gave him room to vacillate.
However, within the Hyuga Clan, Hyuga Hiashi was sidelined by these elders.
Within the Hyuga Clan, most decisions were discussed and made jointly by the patriarch and the elders.
With these perpetually aloof Main Family elders of the Hyuga Clan around, the decisions Hyuga Hiashi could actually make were very few.
Back then, the death of his own younger brother was something he was powerless to decide as well!
Precisely because of this, Hyuga Hiashi held extremely high demands for Hinata.
He wanted Hinata to possess sufficiently formidable strength to overturn the distinction between the Main Family and the Branch Family.
"If you decide to stay, then stay."
"The Uchiha were capable of wiping out the four clans of the Konoha High Command. If you choose to oppose the Uchiha at a time like this, then I won't object either."
"I am heading over first."
Hyuga Hiashi did not refute the words of the crowd, standing up directly and walking out of the Conference Room.
For a moment, the elders present were dumbfounded.
How could Hyuga Hiashi...
Soon, everyone discovered.
Hyuga Hiashi had not only left by himself.
Moreover, he had also taken his trusted aides from the Hyuga Clan and left the clan compound.
Although the elders were all bark and no bite, seeing that Hyuga Hiashi had left, they also stood up one by one with deep resentment, leading their own Branch Family Shinobi as they walked toward the location of the Hokage Building.
This time, the time limit was one hour.
As long as they could still draw breath, practically everyone had gathered here.
Because of the appearance of Kurama, everyone currently outside consisted of Shinobi.
Ordinary people and children had already been sent to the underground shelter.
Meanwhile, the members of the Uchiha stood behind Uchiha Kazama at this moment.
The traces of battle still remained, but the corpses had already been cleared away.
An aura of stern killing intent, mingled with the lingering stench of blood from the battle, stimulated the senses of the numerous Shinobi present...
