"Everyone must know what kind of Hokage Lei Luo is. He is completely different from Sarutobi Hiruzen. No matter in terms of heart, magnanimity, or level of domineering, there is no comparison between the third generation and the fourth generation!"
"If I don't talk about anything else, let's just talk about how many great ninjas were promoted when Lei Luo was in power? Uzumaki Makoto, Senju Tsunade, Senju Naoki, Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Ao, Nara Shikaku...
"
He announced a long list of names, then changed the subject and said solemnly:
"Only among us Hinata, except for the rebellious Hinata Huan, no one has been reused! In today's environment where everyone is getting promoted, everyone should be able to understand what this situation means!"
"I think this should arouse our vigilance. After all, we are the only Hyuga clan that has not responded to the peaceful evolution plan. This will inevitably push our clan to the opposite side of Konoha!"
"Especially, the fifth generation's attitude was tested today!"
"If you don't have long-term worries, you will have immediate worries. My idea is that instead of fighting against the village forever and being killed in the future, it is better..." Looking around quickly, Hinata Hiashi raised his fists expressionlessly and raised his head.
shouted:
"Evacuate as soon as possible, keep the green hills, and don't worry about running out of firewood!"
After finishing speaking, Hinata took a few deep breaths to calm his violently heaving chest. His eyes scanned the silent faces of the elders one by one, and he slowly added the last sentence:
"After I've finished speaking, let's vote by a show of hands on how to do it specifically."
The venue was quiet for a while, and under the dim candlelight, old faces with uncertain moods were reflected. It was obvious that the Hyuga elders were in a very bad mood, very bad.
If they had a choice, no one would be willing to give up everything they have, including the connections, relationships, and resources accumulated in Konoha over the years, and run to other shinobi villages to start a new business.
But what Hyuga Hizatsu said is very reasonable. The situation is clearly not good for the Hyuga clan. If they don't make a decisive decision and continue to waste their time, there's no telling when Konoha's higher-ups will take measures against them.
"Alas... Rizu is right, it's time for us to leave."
"Although I hate to admit it, but..."
"Staying in Konoha will indeed become more dangerous day by day."
"There's no way, there's really no way."
After a long sigh, the elders voted one after another.
"I agree, evacuate."
"Seconded."
"Seconded."
Hinata Hinashi glanced around and saw that the elders all agreed and his plan was supported, but there was no joy in his heart, only full of bitterness and sadness.
"Rizu, when are we leaving?"
Hearing the question from an elder, Hinata Hizuki calmed down and gave an answer without thinking too much: "About half a year later, someone will come to deliver the signal, and Mizukage will also arrive at the border of Yuno Country.
Meet us."
The Country of Yu is the federal country closest to Konoha Village. The reason why Mizukage wants to support there instead of entering the Country of Fire is because the peace treaty has the following stipulation:
Lei Luo is prohibited from entering the territory of the federal country. Similarly, Ice is prohibited from entering the territory of the Country of Fire. If one party has abnormal behavior and is discovered by the other party, it will be regarded as a breach of contract, and the two camps will immediately go to war.
Whether it is Lei Luo or Bing, neither of them has the idea of breaking the peace rashly, so they can only try to maintain restraint. This is the main reason why Lei Luo sent Obito and Cang to investigate the evil cult instead of going there himself.
.
"Why wait half a year?"
"I don't know either..." Hinata Hiashi shook his head, pointed to the letter paper placed in the center of the floor, and said in a deep voice: "I don't know much more than you do. All the information is in that letter."
"In other words, someone will come to Konoha in half a year to create chaos, attract the attention of the Fourth and Fifth Generations and others, and create opportunities for us to evacuate?" An elder picked up the letter again, read it carefully, and asked doubtfully.
"That's what the Kaguya clan leader wrote, so that's it."
Hinata Hinatsu replied calmly, with a flash of impatience in his eyes. He felt that these elders were too verbose. He didn't read the letter carefully, but instead asked him questions one after another. They were really a bunch of idiots.
If each elder had not managed a group of branch ninjas under his command, the forces of the Hyuga clan were so intricate that if they took action rashly, the elders would kill each other and drive the caged birds to bury all the branch ninjas with them...
He was showing off every day and had already hugged Yondaime's lap.
Are you still here to discuss an escape plan?
"Who will come? If Mizukage doesn't come, I can't think of anyone in the world who can delay Lei Luo."
"Forget it, stop guessing. Since you choose to trust Mizukage, just obey the arrangements. Kirigakure will not benefit us at all."
"Anyway, with the current situation in the ninja world, the empire and the federation are wary of each other, and no one dares to act rashly. We just need to run into the country of Yu..."
"Well, it should be safe."
Hinata Hizu listened to the discussion of the elders for a while and felt bored. In addition, it was already late, so he apologized and left first. In the ancestral hall, only the elders were still talking endlessly, like a group of ducks quacking.
Just call.
Opening the door, Hinata had just taken two steps. Before leaving the courtyard, she heard someone behind her say: "Brother, are we... really going to leave the village and become a group of shameful rebellious ninjas?"
Looking back, he saw a man wearing a black kimono leaning on the wall outside the ancestral hall. Since it was already dark, Rizu couldn't see his expression clearly, but he could tell from his tone how reluctant he was to say these words.
.
"Hizashi..." Hinata Hizashi was silent for a moment, but soon he seemed to be relieved and smiled indifferently: "Why, do you feel uncomfortable? Do you want to go to the Godaime to inform?"
"If I tell the truth, I might die, right?"
While asking in a low tone, he slowly walked up to Hinata Hinata. Under the moonlight, Hinata's face with mixed emotions was revealed, and he sighed deeply.
"Don't be afraid. The Godaime has many sealing techniques to restrain caged birds. If you go and tell the truth, your life will not be in danger." Hinata Hinashi replied casually, with a little sarcasm on his face.
His eyes briefly met his elder brother's. Hinata Hizashi immediately closed his eyes and frowned. After a while, he opened them again and said firmly: "Brother, I will go with you."
Of course you have to come with us...
Although he thought so in his heart, there was a qualitative difference between Hizashi taking the initiative to request and being coerced by the caged bird to leave after the plan started half a year later, so Hizashi managed to squeeze out a smile of relief after all.
"Hizashi, I'm glad you can support me."
Hizashi nodded lightly and said nothing, and the atmosphere was silent for more than ten seconds. Then he raised his head and looked at the full moon above his head. At this time, a breeze blew by, adding a sense of desolation to this spring night.
This wind seems to reach straight into my heart...
It makes the whole body feel chilly and extremely uncomfortable.
"Brother, where is the future of the Hyuga clan?"
Looking along Hizashi's line of sight, Hizashi also quietly watched the hazy moonlight. An unconcealable confusion flashed in his eyes. He opened his upper and lower lips lightly and replied slowly:
"Who knows?"
"The world is like a tornado, and we are all just a group of ants. How the future develops depends only on how fate arranges it."
