Was there a conflict between the Anbu and Root today?

Uchiha Kage, who had already sent Samui back ahead of him, naturally didn't refuse Hyuga Hiashi's invitation.

Seeing the crowd gathered near the Hokage Building on the way, he was a bit curious and... regretful.

Too bad I wasn't there, or I could have gotten another batch of ninja fragments.

"Maybe what happened during the Chunin Exams is somehow connected to what's happening here."

How could it be such a coincidence?

The Third Hokage leaves the Exam Hall, and the exam site immediately has problems, and the Hokage Building too.

Maybe the Third Hokage is pulling the strings!

Coupled with Asuma being inexplicably confined to his home by Sarutobi Hiruzen, Yuhi Kurenai felt like she was connecting the dots.

No, the incident at the Chunin Exam Hall was clearly caused by the Sunagakure People stirring things up...

No...

"Could it be that the Sunagakure People are controlling the Third Hokage?"

Their goal is to disrupt Konoha.

Otherwise, why would the Anbu and Root ninja be clashing on such a large scale?

"Teacher, what are you saying? The Third Hokage is the strongest Hokage, how could he be controlled?"

Uchiha Kage felt that Yuhi Kurenai's ideas were becoming more and more...

Bold.

"The Sunagakure People probably don't have that ability, but..."

Hyuga Hiashi recalled Asuma being controlled by an Illusionary Technique.

"You Uchiha... perhaps you do."

The Sharingan Illusionary Technique of the Uchiha clan was just too difficult to defend against.

"That's right, wasn't the previous Mizukage of Kirigakure, Yagura, controlled by the Sharingan? They still don't know who the culprit is to this day."

Thinking of the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura, Yuhi Kurenai felt like she was getting closer to the truth about the Third Hokage's recent erratic behavior.

"I know! It's Uchiha Itachi! Uchiha Itachi is controlling the Third Hokage!"

"Uchiha Itachi?"

Hyuga Hiashi glanced at Uchiha Kage, who showed no surprise, and then asked Yuhi Kurenai with a puzzled expression,

"Wasn't he already a missing-nin?"

"This... this isn't the place to talk about this."

Yuhi Kurenai looked around.

"Yeah, we really need to talk."

The Hokage-sama being controlled was no small matter.

Hyuga Hiashi also planned to tell Yuhi Kurenai about Asuma being controlled by the Sharingan's Illusionary Technique.

So, the group quickly arrived at the innermost guest room of the Hyuga Clan.

----

"What? Asuma was also controlled?"

After hearing Hyuga Hiashi's explanation about Asuma, Yuhi Kurenai finally understood why the Hokage had confined Asuma to his home.

"Yes, this is not to be spread, the Hokage-sama specifically instructed me."

Hyuga Hiashi was taking a huge risk by revealing this to Yuhi Kurenai.

After all, the matter of the Hokage being controlled that she spoke of was just too shocking.

"Hmph, the Hokage-sama also told us not to tell anyone about Uchiha Itachi returning to the village."

Yuhi Kurenai shook her head dismissively.

"I think these orders were probably all issued by Uchiha Itachi, because he has completely controlled the Hokage-sama!"

Yes, the beginning of Sarutobi Hiruzen's erratic behavior was when they discovered Uchiha Itachi.

With this, everything made sense.

Uchiha Itachi returned to the village and controlled the Third Hokage, and then made the Third Hokage...

"No... wait, is Uchiha Itachi really in the Konoha Village?"

Hyuga Hiashi was having a hard time following Yuhi Kurenai's train of thought.

All the orders were issued by Uchiha Itachi?

"Of course, Kage and I saw him with our own eyes that day, and so did Gekko Hayate from the Anbu."

"Is that so?"

Hyuga Hiashi couldn't help but ask Uchiha Kage, who had been sitting quietly without expressing any opinions.

He was quite afraid of Uchiha Itachi.

This kind of terrorist who could wipe out his own clan without a word was definitely every Clan Head's nightmare.

"Teacher, you are disobeying the Hokage-sama's orders again."

Uchiha Kage's lack of rebuttal was an admission that Uchiha Itachi was indeed in the Konoha Village.

"I've said it already, Uchiha Itachi is controlling the Third Hokage, so I'm not disobeying orders, I'm saving the Hokage-sama!"

Yuhi Kurenai felt that she had completely grasped the truth.

"If that's really the case, then we should..."

Hyuga Hiashi was still digesting the news of Uchiha Itachi's return to the Konoha Village.

At the same time, he curiously looked at Uchiha Kage again.

To be so calm at such a young age, he's bound to achieve great things in the future.

"Quickly notify Kakashi, and then unite all the Jonin in the village to wipe out Uchiha Itachi!"

"But, what if we act rashly and tip him off, and the Third Hokage is..."

Who knows what a madman like Uchiha Itachi would do.

If Uchiha Itachi really controlled the Third Hokage as Yuhi Kurenai said...

Hyuga Hiashi was a little worried that the village would be without a leader as a result.

"Then choose the Fifth Hokage!"

Yuhi Kurenai believed that the Third Hokage-sama would also sacrifice himself for the sake of the village.

"In short, the situation is urgent, let's kill the traitor Uchiha Itachi first!"

Yuhi Kurenai looked at her Disciple, Uchiha Kage, with a hopeful expression.

Hoping to get an affirmative answer from him.

This guy, although he never says it, must have wanted Uchiha Itachi, who slaughtered an entire clan, to die long ago, right?

It's okay, Teacher will help you ...

"But, we should test it out first, what if we're wrong..."

Hyuga Hiashi was as conservative as ever.

"Whether we're right or wrong, killing Uchiha Itachi is never wrong!"

"..."

It had to be said that what Yuhi Kurenai said was true.

Uchiha Itachi, an S-rank Missing-nin who brought great losses and casualties to the village, should be killed on sight.

Hyuga Hiashi couldn't help but fall silent.

"But, if the Third Hokage-sama really is... then what if Konoha is empty and vulnerable to attack?"

Back then, when the Fourth Hokage died young, the village was also in a state of panic.

"Then let's choose the Fifth Hokage candidate first? Anyway, no matter what, such a big thing has happened in the village, we still have to gather the Jonin."

"It's best to secretly gather a part of them... but, who should we choose as the next Hokage?"

Speaking of the next Hokage, Hyuga Hiashi couldn't help but feel a fire in his heart.

As the saying goes, a Jonin who doesn't want to be Hokage isn't a good Clan Head.

As the Clan Head of the Hyuga Clan, the largest clan in Konoha, Hyuga Hiashi was also very envious of the Hokage's position.

"I can't possibly express my opinion on this kind of thing."

As a Female Ninja who had only been promoted to Jonin not long ago, Yuhi Kurenai didn't think she had such power.

"Jonin have the right to vote."

Hyuga Hiashi looked at Yuhi Kurenai and the others in the room with anticipation.

"And it's just talking, everyone can say which ninja they think can serve as Hokage."

"Then Kage... you should be the Hokage!"

Yuhi Kurenai looked at her Disciple.

This guy, apart from being a bit annoying at times, might actually be more suitable to serve as Hokage than Namikaze Minato back then.

He's just younger.

"Cough... Kage-san?"

Hyuga Hiashi, who had just picked up his teacup, almost choked on his water.

"Alright, stop joking around, the Hokage-sama won't be controlled by anyone, let's have dinner first."

Now that things have come to this, let's serve the food first.

Uchiha Kage never expected that Yuhi Kurenai's thinking would be so divergent, and she even started to encourage him to become Hokage.

Doesn't she know that the Uchiha can't become Hokage?

However, it's not that simple to control a village's Kage with an Illusionary Technique.

Not to mention that the Byakugan can see through Kotoamatsukami...

Even without the Byakugan, to completely control a person with an Illusionary Technique, one needs to have at least more strength than the other party, and one's mental will must also be higher than the other party, so it's best to use the Illusionary Technique when the other party is mentally unstable or unprepared.

It's not that easy to do.

Otherwise, if Uchiha Madara just glared at the Five Kage and controlled them all, where would there be so much trouble?

The Uchiha clan would have controlled the entire ninja world long ago.

"I'm not joking, but Kage-san is indeed too young, it's more appropriate to choose Kakashi."

Yuhi Kurenai glared at Uchiha Kage with an expression of 'you missed a great opportunity to become Hokage'.

She was very serious and solemn in her guess... no, analysis, analyzing the facts.

How was she joking?

"Um..."

Doesn't even have his Hyuga Hiashi's name as a backup?

Really, you're Hinata's Teacher, can't you be a little closer to the Hyuga Clan?

Although he was complaining like crazy in his heart, Hyuga Hiashi still calmly expressed his approval of Yuhi Kurenai's proposal.

In the Konoha Village, apart from the Hokage and the Sannin, Kakashi has the highest strength and comprehensive qualities in all aspects.

But the Sannin aren't bad either, such as Tsunade, who has always had a high voice, and Jiraiya, who is not very serious, but is strong enough...

"Father, Kage-san was a referee for the Chunin Exams for a day, he must be hungry, please have the food served quickly."

Seeing that her Father was starting to say things she didn't understand with Yuhi Kurenai again, Hinata was a little angry.

She said they were going to eat, so what was the delay?

Moreover, Kage-san said that the Hokage-sama wouldn't be controlled, so there must be nothing wrong.

Father and Teacher are obviously worrying unnecessarily.

"I understand..."

This was the third time his daughter had scolded him.

But as with the previous two times, the one who was hurt was him, the Father...

---

"The Sharingan is still on Kakashi..."

After Obito got the information from Uchiha Itachi, he rushed to Konoha Village.

Of course, he wasn't worried about Kakashi's safety, but--

The Sharingan was his Jonin Gift to Hatake Kakashi, and he wouldn't allow it to be taken away by others.

"But, Kakashi is still as useless as before."

He can't even learn the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Although he can't learn it either, and isn't qualified to learn this Ninjutsu, this doesn't stop him from mocking Kakashi in his heart.

It's just that Kakashi, why's Kakashi learning the Flying Thunder God Technique all of a sudden?

Hiding in the dark and concealing himself with Kamui, Obito watched Kakashi and Shiranui Hayate practicing the Flying Thunder God Technique together. While mocking the other party, he couldn't help but feel a little curious.

It can't be to deal with me, right?

"Hmph, even if Kakashi is lucky enough to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique, I also... don't care, I won't fall for the same trick twice!"

Thinking of the scene where he was beaten by Namikaze Minato on the day he released the Nine Tails in Konoha Village, Obito still had lingering fears, but his mouth was still very stubborn.

However...

So who exactly has the Mangekyo Sharingan and is pretending to be me?

Uchiha Itachi's information can't be false, and he wouldn't bother him for no reason.

So who could it be?

---

"You don't even have the Sharingan, how do you know that the Sharingan's Illusionary Technique also has so many constraints?"

The Hyuga Clan's mansion.

After the luxurious dinner was served, Yuhi Kurenai was still insisting on her point of view.

That is, if the Third Hokage isn't senile, he's being controlled.

"Teacher can ask Kakashi-sensei."

"Alright, even if Teacher is wrong, then the Third Hokage must be senile."

Seeing that Uchiha Kage was speaking seriously, Yuhi Kurenai also knew that what he said was mostly correct.

Because her Illusionary Technique also has many limitations.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have lost to Samui last time.

Of course, she lost that day because of an accident. Who would have thought that Shino would scream at that time?

"..."

Shino, who was inexplicably glared at by Yuhi Kurenai, looked innocent.

However, Teacher seems to be very dissatisfied with the Hokage-sama.

Ever since coming to the Hyuga Clan, she has been saying bad things about the Third Hokage.

She even brought up the matter of choosing the next Hokage.

The Hokage-sama isn't dead yet...

No, it seems that you can choose the next Hokage without dying.

It's just that the Third Hokage hasn't always...

Crap, even I feel like the Third Hokage has been in the Hokage position for too long?

Shino began to reflect on himself.

----

"Older sister!"

Before long, Hanabi, who learned that there were guests at home, ran in with her short legs and plunged into her Older sister's arms.

"Father-sama."

After hugging her Older sister, Hanabi politely greeted everyone.

A charming Female Teacher, a Reservedly man who covered his face with his collar, and this...

Eh heh, it's a handsome older brother!

"You must be the person Older sister likes..."

Older sister seems to have good taste.

"Hanabi!"

Hinata quickly pulled Hanabi away from Uchiha Kage.

And blocked the little mouth that was still planning to say some embarrassing things.

"I'm sorry, Kage-san, Hanabi always likes to say strange things..."

With a slightly red face, Hinata, who was imprisoning Hanabi in her arms, apologized to Uchiha Kage with embarrassment.

Like ... if it makes Kage-san feel troubled and disgusted, that wouldn't be good.

Speaking of which, Hinata still doesn't know whether this Uchiha youth likes her or hates her.

But, he probably hates her.

The last time they soaked in the hot spring...

Stepping on her feet must mean he didn't want to soak in the hot spring with her.

Although he later had actions of touching her body, that should just be using the Mystical Palm Technique, there's no other meaning at all...

On the contrary, she fainted several times.

And dragged him down many times...

It's so embarrassing, Kage-san definitely won't like me.

Only Teacher and Ino are...

Recalling Ino, who was often patted on the head by Uchiha Kage, and the scene where Uchiha Kage was ridden by Yuhi Kurenai without resistance on the night of the hot spring.

Recalling her embarrassing performance in front of Uchiha Kage, Hinata couldn't help but feel a little sad.

"It's okay."

It's cute eno--cough cough, it's a cute little Hanabi.

Looking at the Byakugan sisters in front of him, the darkness in Uchiha Kage's heart couldn't help but be purified by the two girls' cuteness.

If everyone in the world was so cute, perhaps peace would truly come.

"What a cute child."

She knew to assist her Older sister as soon as she came.

Yuhi Kurenai pulled Hanabi from Hinata's arms into her own while searching for a Gift on her body.

"Ah, that's right, you've all been promoted to Chunin, Teacher is going to prepare a Gift for each of you... and if the three of you are willing, you can also exchange Gifts with each other to celebrate."

Theoretically, if one of the companions is promoted first, the others have to give Gifts.

But this was the first time Yuhi Kurenai had encountered all three of them being promoted together.

Fortunately, she had already bought Hinata's Gift in the Land of Water.

It was a set of underwear she had specially picked out for Hinata's development.

As for Shino and Kage-san, she could just give them something casual.

"Thank you, Teacher..."

Hinata shyly took the Gift from Yuhi Kurenai's hand.

Then she immediately began to think about what Gift she should give to Uchiha Kage and Shino.

"Don't worry, Father has already considered this, so he has prepared one for each of you."

The wealthy Hyuga Hiashi gave each of the three people, including Hinata, a ninja tool bag with space extension function.

It was quite practical for ninja.

It's only the size of a pocket, but it can hold a lot of ninja tools.

"Thank you."

Updat𝒆d fr𝒐m freewebnσvel.cøm.

Uchiha Kage picked it up and tried it. He found that it was more exquisite than the one he used before, and the space inside was also larger.

"Speaking of which, Kage-san has already given Older sister and me Gifts..."

Shino thought of the Ninjutsu Scroll that Uchiha Kage gave him.

That was a very valuable Gift.

He didn't even know what to give in return.

"Well, Kage-san doesn't need to give us any more Gifts, and Father-sama's doesn't count, I will think carefully about what to give..."

What a meddlesome Father.

Hinata didn't want Hyuga Hiashi to help her give Uchiha Kage a Gift.

"I know, Older sister has a 'treasure' that has always been locked in the drawer of the cabinet, why don't you give that!"

Hanabi poked her head out of Yuhi Kurenai's arms. As soon as she mentioned Gifts, she thought of the things her Older sister locked in the cabinet every day.

She always didn't let her see, and she had to hold that thing in her arms every day when she came home.

It must be a very precious thing!

"Hanabi, don't talk nonsense!"

That was her diary, which recorded a lot of... things that were unbearable to look at for Kage-san...

How could it be used as a Gift to give away!

"Kage-san, I'm not being perfunctory, the thing Hanabi is talking about is my... anyway, it's definitely not a Gift worth giving away..."

In order to prevent Uchiha Kage from thinking that she was stingy, Hinata quickly explained.

"It's okay, I'll be happy with whatever Gift you give."

Anyway, every night there is a big Hinata who can be used as a "Gift" for him to play with.

"However, in order to thank Senior Hiashi for the Gift, let me tell you a piece of information about the Byakugan. I saw it in an ancient book."

"Information about the Byakugan?"

Hyuga Hiashi felt that this sentence from the mouth of an Uchiha was a bit of a joke.

"Yes, everyone knows that the Sharingan can evolve into the Mangekyo Sharingan, so the Byakugan, as a Bloodline Limit that is not weaker than the Sharingan, should theoretically have the possibility of evolving into a higher level."

"Is this true?"

Also, that the Sharingan can evolve into the Mangekyo Sharingan, most people don't know that, right?

Hyuga Hiashi didn't take it seriously at first, but after hearing the Mangekyo Sharingan from Uchiha Kage's mouth, he couldn't help but feel curious.

"I don't know if it's true, but that's what it says in the ancient book."

Uchiha Kage curved his lips and then glanced at the direction outside the door without showing any signs.

"It is said that the Byakugan can evolve into the Tenseigan, and after evolving into the Tenseigan, it will no longer be affected by... the Caged Bird Seal."

"What did you say!?"

Thump.

The door to the guest room was suddenly pushed open.

Then a surprised face appeared.

"Neji? Come sit down too."

Hyuga Hiashi was just listening with great interest when he saw Neji suddenly opening the door and walking in.

"Thank you for your kindness, Hiashi-sama, but I am a Branch Family Member and not suitable to be on the table to entertain guests."

Neji glanced at Uchiha Kage sitting in the room.

He was just curious and came over to take a look.

He just didn't expect the other party to say such explosive content.

"No, there is no distinction between the Branch Family and the Head Family here, it's just a celebration between classmates for being promoted to Chunin."

The recent Neji is like a different person.

The former Neji was sharp and exposed, and would find ways to return any mockery and humiliation from the Head Family Members on the spot, or completely let it rot.

But now Neji is very polite to everyone, and even doesn't complain behind his back.

It's like a lurking young beast.

It's not scary for a person to be sharp and exposed, it's scary when he hides all his sharpness.

Hyuga Hiashi has been a little worried about Neji's change recently.

"Okay, if it's to help Hinata-sama celebrate, I can accompany you."

Neji didn't refuse Hyuga Hiashi's kindness, but he kept staring at Uchiha Kage ever since he walked in.

"Is the Tenseigan you said true?"

"I said, it's a record in an ancient book, I don't know if it's true."

I don't know if there is a Tenseigan on the moon now. If there is, I can find a chance to take it off and use it.

Uchiha Kage decided to find something for Neji to do, so as not to come to him for a duel again.

"Then how do you evolve it? Is it written on it?"

"Yes, it is said that you need to gather the Byakugan of all the Clan Member together to have the hope of cultivating the Tenseigan."

"You... hmph!"

The Byakugan of all the Clan Member, is this guy definitely joking about the destruction of the Uchiha clan?

Neji knew that he had been tricked again after hearing this.

So he turned around and left angrily.

"Wait, Neji!"

Not good, with Neji's hatred for the Head Family Members, if he really believes Uchiha Kage's words, he might be the second Uchiha Itachi!

Looking at Neji's hurried departure, Hyuga Hiashi couldn't help but feel anxious.

But before leaving here to chase Neji, he still asked Uchiha Kage with curiosity and caution.

"Is there really a Tenseigan?"

If it's true, I should have kept the Byakugan of the Clan Member who died in battle, instead of destroying them with the Caged Bird Seal.

"Maybe there really is, but the cultivation method is what I made up, Senior Hiashi must explain clearly, otherwise..."

Uchiha Kage deliberately used a meaningful tone.

With the Hyuga Clan's Head Family and Branch Family system, if you really tell them the truth, there will be no peace in the future.

So Uchiha Kage can only say that the truth is a joke.

"You..."

This Uchiha youth is really bad taste!

After hearing this, Hyuga Hiashi didn't think much about it, and quickly ran after Neji.

"You're really vindictive."

Looking at Hyuga Hiashi being tricked by Uchiha Kage's joke, Yuhi Kurenai only thought that the other party was taking revenge for the arrow in Kirigakure.

"You even dare to bully Hinata's Father, In the future..."

In the Future, don't let this guy be the Hokage.

Otherwise, everyone in the Konoha Village will be bullied to death by him, right?

Yuhi Kurenai suddenly thought.

"No, everything I said is true, it's just that the last sentence is 'added'."

"That's the most important sentence!"

"Kage-san just wants to liven up the atmosphere, and..."

If the Byakugan can really evolve into a Tenseigan, Neji-niisan should be able to get rid of the Caged Bird Seal.

Hinata listened very carefully.

She didn't think Uchiha Kage was joking.

Because...

According to her observation, Uchiha Kage may also have the Byakugan too.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to use the Gentle Fist so well.

"Older sister usually eats so much, why don't you move your chopsticks today?"

Hanabi didn't think much, just kept looking back and forth between her Older sister and Uchiha Kage.

"Ah, I know, Older sister is shy, so she doesn't dare to eat in front of this brother!"

"Hanabi!"

Hinata really didn't want Uchiha Kage to know that she was a big eater.

"Does Kage-san like girls with big appetites?"

This time, with Yuhi Kurenai's body as protection, Hanabi was not caught by her Older sister.

"I like it if the eating habits are not ugly."

"That's great, Older sister eats a lot, but she eats very well!"

"Hanabi..."

Hinata, whose cheeks were flushed, finally picked up Hanabi again.

But...

Did Kage-san just say that he liked her?

Mmm ...

A little belatedly, Hinata only thought of this, and was overwhelmed by the huge joy and shyness in her mind.

"Older sister?"

Looking at her Older sister, who was falling backwards and was caught by Uchiha Kage, Hanabi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

So Older sister isn't just crushing on him, then she is relieved.

Aiya, for the happiness of Older sister, I'm worn out today.

---

In short, the dinner at the Hyuga Clan's house was enjoyed by both the host and the guests.

Yes, the host was either angered or shy, and everyone was very happy.

"I really don't know what Gift to give you."

Walking on the way home, Yuhi Kurenai was also thinking about what Gift to give Uchiha Kage.

"Forget it, let's give you this."

After glancing around and finding that there was no one else, Yuhi Kurenai decisively put her arm around Uchiha Kage's neck.

"Teacher is taking advantage of me again."

Wiping the saliva from his face, Uchiha Kage really wanted to teach this Female Teacher who always tempts him a lesson right then and there.

But after thinking about it, he decided to forget it.

Besides the things of Samui and Karin that need to be dealt with later, there is also this...

The youth who didn't know when he was standing on the telephone pole seemed to be waiting for him to give him an explanation.

"Sasuke, why are you here?"

Being discovered by Sasuke kissing another woman, Uchiha Kage was a little guilty.
