Chapter 262: Hinata Hanabi's Story

Hinata Hanabi's eyes were as clear as water.

She stared at Uchiha Sasuke and said stubbornly:

“I know you are a good friend of Brother Neji.

"So I don't understand why you have to force my Hyuga clan so hard?"

Hearing this, Uchiha Sasuke was stunned and didn't know how to respond for a moment.

You hid Neji;
You guys pretend to be Neji and do some nonsense outside;
I just discovered that you also secretly tied up the civilian nurse, Eri.

How come it seems like I'm the one "forcing" someone with just this mouth?
Sasuke thought about it and felt that he didn't need to respond to the entanglement, so he said:
"My boy, you may not understand the situation.

"Now, I'm the one asking you questions."

Sasuke's tone was cold and his eyes were sharp.

It reminds the other party to pay attention to their current situation and is full of warning meaning.

However, Hinata Hanabi was not afraid at all. She looked directly into Sasuke's eyes and responded loudly:
"Don't call me kid, I'm the next head of the Hyuga family!

“Besides, I will soon be awarded the forehead protection of a Genin.

"By then, I will also become a true ninja."

Although Hanabi's hands and feet were tied, she still held her head high stubbornly.

At this moment, Hinata Hanabi's voice was indeed trembling a little because of nervousness and fear.

But it is still full of strength, like a brave lion defending its territory.

Sasuke couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and looked at the other person with interest.

Time and again, Sasuke was deeply impressed by the courage and spirit shown by this little girl.

This little girl is indeed worthy of being the future head of the Hyuga family.

Think again about the daily state and performance of his fellow ninja, Hyuga Hinata.

At this time, Sasuke actually felt that the Hyuga clan's decision to "appoint the wise rather than the eldest" did have its rationale.

"Okay, the next Hyuuga clan leader."

Uchiha Sasuke smiled and actually made a concession.

"Just call me Miss Hanabi."

Hinata Hanabi's voice finally stopped trembling.

She just nodded slightly with pride and turned her head away awkwardly.

Her cheeks flushed slightly, and she didn't want to look at Uchiha Sasuke's handsome face again.

"Well then, Miss Hanabi."

Uchiha Sasuke paid no attention to the girls' gestures.

He patiently asked the question that concerned him most:

"Please answer my first question. Is Neji still alive now?"

"What? Of course!"

Hinata Hanabi turned her head suddenly, and looked very surprised that Sasuke would ask such a question.

"Of course Brother Neji is still alive.

"Oh my god, what on earth are you talking about!"

That reaction, it was as if Sasuke's words had frightened her as well.

Hanabi's answer immediately lifted the heavy stone that had been weighing on Uchiha Sasuke's heart for too long.

It seems that the analysis of the netizens and predecessors was indeed correct.

At least, at this stage, the Hyuga clan will not, and there is no need to, do anything too extreme.

However, Sasuke will not let his guard down until he sees Neji in person.

He thought for a moment and asked again:
"So, what is the purpose of your recent actions? Why is Neji hiding from us?

"And what about that Konoha nurse named Eri? Why is she in your room?"

Uchiha Sasuke asked questions like a machine gun, pouring out all the doubts in his heart.

"."

On the opposite side, Hinata Hanabi bit her lip, said nothing, and looked hesitant and struggling.

"I can answer you. But you have to tell me first.

"What is your purpose in tying me to this place?"

After a moment's silence, Hinata Hanabi seemed to have made some kind of decision.

She just raised her head and not only did not answer the question, but also asked back stubbornly.

"Pfft."

On the side, seeing Uchiha Sasuke repeatedly being humiliated in front of a little girl, Kimimaro couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"why are you laughing?"

Sasuke asked unhappily as he looked at his friend.

"It's nothing, I just remembered happy things."

Kimimaro answered while trying not to laugh.

He just felt that even at this point, this little girl still dared to bargain with Sasuke.

It seems that the rumor that "the Hyuga clan is the strongest in Konoha" is not completely groundless.

On this side, Sasuke was quite frank.

He turned around again and admitted to Hinata Hanabi generously:

"Ningji's matter is like a fog. I don't trust the Hyuga clan, so I have to capture you first.

"With the bargaining chips, I can sit down with Hyuga Hiashi and discuss the terms. Then, I won't be too passive."

After hearing this, Kimimaro on the side finally showed a look of sudden enlightenment.

"mean!"

Before Sasuke could finish, Hinata Hanabi immediately shouted loudly.

“That’s the way I do things.

"We must take the initiative."

Sasuke shrugged, not caring about the comment coming from the girl.

No matter whether your Hyuga clan has good intentions or bad intentions, and no matter whether this matter is a misunderstanding or a conspiracy, I, Sasuke, have exposed my malicious intentions anyway.

Only in this way can we avoid making the other party beg us during negotiations. At least, we will not let ourselves "beg" the other party.

"My father would be very worried if you used someone else's daughter as a bargaining chip."

For Hanabi, Hyuga Hiashi has always been a person she respects and admires. When she thought that Sasuke was going to use her to threaten his father, she was worried about her father's feelings.

At the same time, he was secretly afraid and worried that his father might be disappointed in him if he was caught.

"How could you do such a thing!"

In a fit of anger, Hinata Hanabi almost said, "You're so pretty."

She looked at Uchiha Sasuke's handsome face and couldn't help feeling discouraged again.

"how?"

Uchiha Sasuke's eyes sparkled, and he said loudly:
"Aren't you taking advantage of the fact that Neji's father is dead to bully others?
"Remember, go back and tell your Hyuga clan.

"Hyuga Neji has no father, I, Uchiha Sasuke, am his father!"

"what?"

On the side, Kimimaro couldn't help but reveal a puzzled expression.

Although he was clearly speaking up for his brother, as another good friend of Uchiha Sasuke, Kimimaro also felt that something was a little off.

On the other side, Hinata Hanabi frowned and her face turned red, as if she was really very angry.

However, after hearing Sasuke say "bullying someone has no father", Hanabi finally slowly loosened her clenched fists.

The whole person was like a deflated ball, and whispered:

"You, you are right.
"I, actually, I also think that father shouldn't treat brother Neji like this."

This was a thought she had buried deep in her heart.

Before this, she had never said any criticisms about her father to anyone else, and even if she secretly thought about it in her heart, she felt that it was a very rebellious thing.

However, for some reason, when facing this Uchiha boy who was a few years older than him.

Even though it was their first time dealing with each other, she actually spoke her mind directly.

As expected, Hinata Hanabi lowered her head, but soon, the guilt in her heart surged up again.

She raised her head again and loudly defended her father, Hinata Hiashi:

“However, what father shoulders is the safety of the entire Hyuga clan. As the clan leader, he must take care of everyone and everything.

"In fact, I have always known that father himself loves brother Neji very much!"

"That means you have been brainwashed by him."

Uchiha Sasuke waved his hands irritably and commented quickly.

The simple and crude conclusion made Hua Huo freeze in place, feeling confused.

Without waiting for Hanabi to answer, Sasuke spoke again:
"I have answered your question. Now it's your turn."

"good."

It took a long time for Hinata Hanabi to come back to her senses.

She was sitting on the bed, leaning against the wall. She nodded slowly and said seriously:
"Originally, it should have been made clear earlier."

She still believes that many things can actually be better solved through communication.

However, she was still too young to understand. In the game between people, one must not only fight for the first move, but also for initiative, position, space, and flexibility.

Communication will only make these things disappear.

"This is a long story."

Hinata Hanabi spoke slowly as she recalled.

What exactly happened to Hyuga Neji these days was slowly revealed as Hyuga Hanabi narrated the story.
-
To a certain extent, Hyuga Hanabi's fate was changed by Hyuga Neji.

And now, Neji might change her fate for the second time.

When Hanabi was born, her father was still focusing all his attention on her sister Hinata Hyuga.

Although Hanabi is soft and cute, few people approach her in the strict Hyuga mansion.

Not to mention, becoming friends with Hanabi.

Fortunately, the gentle sister Hinata is Hinata's best friend.

The two talked together, played ninja games together, and combed beautiful braids together.

These things are Huahuo’s most precious childhood memories.

Her sister’s soft embrace was also Hanabi’s favorite place when she was a child.

However, Hinata Hyuga, who was highly expected by her father, also did not have much time to accompany Hanabi.

As she gets older, Hyuga Hinata spends more and more time training.

Whenever Hanabi went to look for her sister, Hinata always looked exhausted. Sometimes, she would just lean against the wall and fall asleep.

Looking at her sister's body covered with scars from training, Xiao Huahuo's watery eyes were filled with heartache.

Back then, when Hanabi was bored and missed her sister, she would sneak off to spy on her sister's training.

One day, Hanabi did it again.

In the training room, Hyuga Neji, the cousin who is known as a genius, is serving as a sparring partner for his sister. The two are practicing by fighting with each other.

Through the crack in the door, Hanabi saw her sister being knocked down by Neji again, and was about to hit Hyuga Hinata hard with a palm.

The next second, my father rushed out and formed seals in anger.

Afterwards, brother Neji, who was so powerful and amazing, rolled on the ground in pain.

He begged and cried bitterly, with saliva and tears flowing out of his eyes, like a poor stray dog.

It was hard to believe that the poor guy inside the door was the same person as the genius he usually saw.

The horrifying scene completely overturned Hinata Hanabi's understanding of her family.

She peeked into the martial arts competition and was discovered by the elder.

Her grandfather told her that it was because Neci wanted to kill Hinata that her father used the "bird in a cage" curse to punish Neci.

On that evening when the sunset was as red as blood, the young Hanabi learned for the first time the difference between the main family and the branch family.

For the first time, I learned about the curse and shackles of the "bird in a cage" and the irresistible nature of fate.

At that moment, the gears of fate started turning for the first time.

Hinata Hanabi seemed to have grown up overnight.

From then on, she became silent, hardworking, and more diligent.

Her tender handprints were left on the tree stump in the yard.

Finally, in the fateful duel that concerned the future of the Hyuga clan, Hyuga Hanabi defeated Hyuga Hinata.

From then on, Hinata was officially abandoned.

The elders of the family believed that Hanabi was "born with power over her sister, it was fate."

Then, he entrusted the family's hopes to himself.

Hinata Hanabi herself also believed that she should indeed bear the fate of the main family.

And he secretly decided that he would protect the glorious Hyuga clan.

Your fate from now on is to practice, practice, and practice day after day.

He was always prepared for the moment when the heavy responsibility of being the clan leader was placed on his shoulders.

Until Hyuga Neji returned to the village again.

The fate of Hinata Hanabi took another drastic turn.

"Sniper heavy crossbow?"

"Why would a descendant of the Hyuga branch family snipe a heavy crossbow?!"

That day, Hanabi was practicing soft boxing in the training room as usual.

In my ears, I heard my father's shocked shout.

Although, Hinata Hiashi tried his best to lower his voice.

But under the great shock, it was difficult for him to control the volume of his voice.

Hinata Hanabi felt puzzled.

You know, my father has always taught me.

You must know how to control your emotions.

My father said that emotions hide the deepest secrets in your heart.

When others cannot see through you, you are blessed with majesty.

Out of curiosity, Hinata Hanabi couldn't help but stop practicing.

She tiptoed to the door and peeked out.

In the corridor, my father looked very unhappy.

As far as she could remember, Hua Huo had never seen her father like this before.

Opposite his father, the head elder of the family, Hyuga Shigeo, also had a frown on his face, looking worried and sad.

"But, that Uchiha clan kid has become so powerful now, what can we do about it?"

Hyuga Shio sighed, and there seemed to be a hint of complaint in his words.

"Where is he now? Neji, is he still in my clan's territory?"

Hyuga Hiashi did not respond to Shixiong's words, but continued to ask about Neji in a hurry.

"I just went to take a look. He is resting in his own home."

Hyuga Shio replied.

"From now on, Hyuga Neji is not allowed to step out of the Hyuga clan alone!"

Hinata Hiashi breathed a sigh of relief and said with lingering fear.

Hinata Hiashi knows better than anyone else about the conflict between the branch family and the main family.

At this moment, Ningji, as a member of a branch family, has the ability to kill from a distance.

This change in power has caused severe damage to the power structure between the two.

Therefore, Ri Zu was very clear that this matter must be handled properly.

The situation must be brought under control before it gets worse.

"It's natural."

Hinata Shixiong nodded, agreeing with the clan leader's decision.

After a moment, Hyuga Hiashi seemed to remember something, and asked anxiously:

"What about now? Is there anyone from the Zong family guarding nearby?"

"I have sent Dejian over."

Hyuga Shixiong responded calmly, and after a pause, he added:

"Ningji probably hasn't noticed it yet."

"That's good."

Hinata Hiashi nodded slowly, expressing his approval of the clan elder's appropriate actions.

"But I'm afraid this is not a long-term solution."

Hinata Shixiong reminded slowly.

At the beginning, I told you to make a decision but you didn't.

Now, the disaster has already happened, and the long-range heavy crossbow has been openly taken back.

Ningji's status in the village also rose rapidly with the rise of Uchiha Sasuke.

At this point, it can no longer be handled quietly as before.

Seeing the situation continue to deteriorate, Hyuga Shio felt dissatisfied but was unable to show it.

"I understand. I'll take care of it."

Hinata Hiashi nodded and gave his answer to the other party.

"In half an hour, gather the elders of the tribe to discuss this matter together."

After saying this, Hinata Hiashi turned around and walked towards Hanabi again.

Seeing her father returning to her side again, Hinata Hanabi hurried back to the center of the training room and pretended to be practicing again.

The next day, his father called Hyuga Neji early in the morning, and the two of them discussed matters in the study. No one knew what they talked about.

About ten minutes later, Hyuga Neji walked out quickly with a gloomy face and anger.

Immediately afterwards, Neji once again fell to his knees in public, covering his forehead in pain.

Behind him, Hyuga Hiashi was making hand seals with a gloomy expression.

That day was May 16th.
