Chapter 482: Sunset Red. Aburame Shino Returns to the Village
In the Hyuga clan's territory in Konoha Village, the atmosphere was extremely solemn.

"This is a family affair of our Hyuga clan!" There was an unquestionable determination in Hyuga Sanming's tone, his voice was clear and powerful, not only expressing his attitude to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

It was also telling the people present that they did not need to interfere in this matter.

There is no need for them to participate.

As soon as these words came out, they kept echoing in the minds of Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others around him.

Everyone's eyes turned to Hinata Sanming, their eyes full of confusion.

"Hyuga Neji has caused huge losses to the Hyuga clan. Are you sure you want to deal with it within the clan?" Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned slightly and first glanced at Hyuga Sanming, but soon, his deep gaze fell on Hyuga Hiashi.

After all, at this moment, Hyuga Hiashi is still the patriarch of the Hyuga clan, and the final decision-making power is undoubtedly in his hands.

If Hyuga Hiashi nodded in agreement that the clan should handle the matter themselves, Sarutobi Hiruzen would still let Hyuga Neji go even if he had doubts in his heart.

"Clan leader... this is a matter within our clan. Besides, it was these people from the main family who attacked Neji's mother!" Hyuga Sanming then turned his gaze to Hyuga Hiashi, with respect for the clan leader in his eyes: "If these people hadn't attacked Neji's mother, it wouldn't have turned out like this!"

After Hyuga Sanming finished speaking, many people from the Hyuga branch family gathered together one after another.

Their steps were steady and firm, and everyone's eyes were fixed on Hinata Hiashi.

More and more people from the Hyuga family's branches slowly gathered together, looking at Hyuga Hiashi with serious expressions. The whole atmosphere was so depressing that it made people breathless.

Hyuga Neji holds the method to free the bird from the cage. When the people in the branch family thought of this, they all had their own thoughts in their minds: the main family has committed many evil deeds and bullied the branch families, so why should they still help these main families wholeheartedly?

"Alas, it's time for me, the clan leader, to abdicate!" Feeling the gloomy and complicated gazes of the branch family members, Hyuga Hiashi felt mixed emotions in his heart. Finally, he sighed helplessly and said slowly: "Hokage-sama, this matter is our Hyuga clan's family affair. We will handle some things properly, so don't bother Konoha!"

Hyuga Hiashi was firm in his attitude and directly rejected Sarutobi Hiruzen. Today, the Hyuga clan suffered heavy losses, and most of the clan members had lost their ability to fight, and could even be said to be disabled.

In this case, the future development of the Hyuga clan may have to rely on the support of the branch family. Moreover, Hyuga Neji has found a way to remove the bird from the cage.'

In Hyuga Hiashi's mind, the next plan was already clear: first persuade Neji to come back, free the people of the branch family from being like caged birds, and then he would give up the position of clan leader.

Having served as the head of the Hyuga clan for these years, he felt exhausted, both physically and mentally.

"Hyuga Hiashi, do you know that Hyuga Neji has harmed not only the Hyuga clan, but also Konoha!" Asuma Sarutobi was extremely angry when he heard what Hyuga Hiashi said.

His face flushed red and veins bulged on his forehead. He never expected that Hyuga Hiashi would be so decisive in downplaying the matter and openly refute the opinion of his father Sarutobi Hiruzen.

In Asuma Sarutobi's opinion, Hyuga Hiashi's action was a complete disrespect to his father, the Hokage.

Of course, the anger in his heart also burned towards those people from the Hyuga branch who suddenly appeared and had a tough attitude. In his eyes, these people were simply refusing to accept his toast and thus being punished.

"Hiashi, this is your decision!" Sarutobi Hiruzen's face suddenly darkened, but he still reached out his hand in time to stop Sarutobi Asuma who was about to continue his attack.

Then, he stared at Hyuga Hiashi and continued to speak word by word: "In this case, Konoha will not participate. However, the incident involving Hyuga Neji has a very bad impact on Konoha, I hope you can handle it properly!" After speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen slowly glanced at the people behind him, raised his voice and continued: "Since the Hyuga clan's affairs do not require our participation, let's retreat!"

After he finished speaking, he waved at the ninjas behind him with steady and powerful movements.

In an instant, the Anbu ninjas and Sarutobi Guards began to evacuate in an orderly manner.

Their figures were swift and agile, and soon they disappeared from everyone's sight, and no one paid attention to this wrong thing anymore.

Danzo Shimura was standing nearby, and seeing this he also waved his hand, and all the Root Ninjas disappeared quietly like ghosts.

It was only at this time that Shimura Danzo slowly spoke, his voice low and threatening: "I hope the Hyuga clan can withstand the impact of this turmoil!"

After saying this, he turned his gaze to Sarutobi Hiruzen, and their eyes met, as if they were having a silent communication.

After a moment, they both turned and left at the same time.

They both knew in their hearts that some things needed to be discussed in secret, and judging from what had happened today, the era when the Hyuga main family held power over the Hyuga clan was a thing of the past.

Next, the Hyuga clan will most likely be led by Hyuga Neji, and Neji may even be inclined to the Uchiha clan.

They must plan ahead for these potential changes.

In addition, there is the mysterious and powerful Explosive Heaven Organization, whose strength is beyond imagination, and it has close ties with the Uchiha clan, so we must make thorough preparations in advance.

Thinking of this, the two of them walked towards the outside of the Hyuga clan with steady steps.

"Teacher Kakashi, is Neji okay?" Uzumaki Naruto had been paying close attention to the development of the incident from beginning to end. At this moment, he looked worried and walked up to Kakashi and asked seriously, "He is Xuanyu's friend, I don't want him to get hurt!"

Kakashi looked at Naruto, who had an innocent face and was kept in the dark, and a complex emotion rose in his heart. Then he continued softly: "Don't worry... He's fine, maybe he will be back in a few days!"

While explaining, Kakashi, Naruto, Sasuke and his three disciples were also preparing to leave.

After all, the matter has come to a temporary end, and what remains to be seen is how the Hyuga clan themselves deal with the subsequent problems.

At this time, Uchiha Sasuke clenched his fist tightly, and the blue veins on the back of his hand were clearly visible. His eyes were burning with fighting spirit, and he kept shouting in his heart: I must become stronger, I must become stronger... His brother Uchiha Itachi had the terrifying power to destroy the clan a few years ago, so what about now? On the other hand, when facing Neji, his body couldn't help but tremble.

This made Sasuke feel unwilling, but also determined to catch up.

Becoming stronger became his only obsession at this moment.

Just as they were about to leave, Yuhi Kurenai and Aburame Shino hurried to the Hyuga clan's territory.

Their footsteps were a little hurried, obviously they had hurried here after learning what had happened here.

Coincidentally, they met Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo who were about to leave, and their eyes met in the air.
