Chapter 373 Into the Tiger's Den! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

"what!!!"

"what!!!"

After a series of screams, the clan elders got the opportunity they wanted.

only.
Why are our markings different?

Several former clan elders looked at the curse marks on their foreheads and asked themselves a soul-searching question.

Because what's on their foreheads isn't the wings of freedom soaring high, but a skull bound by chains.

"Oh, this is the Chain Bird Seal."

Hyuga Hizashi casually explained, "The elders are right. After all, the family division system has been passed down for hundreds of years. Suddenly canceling it might make the clansmen feel a little uncomfortable."

From now on, you lot will be dividing the family property!

what?
We've split up?

Several former clan elders were dumbfounded. Moreover, the curse mark on your hand is clearly a skull, so where did the name "Bird in Chains" come from?

"What about Narizu? Why is he different from us?"

Even if you're bullying someone, at least treat everyone equally!

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!
A Shin-Hyuga ninja stepped forward and gave each of the new branch family elders a bib.

"That's the clan chief's elder brother! How can he be compared to you? Get out of here!"

The elders of the newly separated family dared not speak out in anger and could only obediently go to the side.

"Um... can someone help me stop the bleeding?"

An elder raised his severed arm, and blood began to flow from the wound again.

"Stop the bleeding? I don't know how. Who among you knows how?"

"I can't either, I've never been injured before."

"Should we ask those people to help treat the wound?"

"Are you crazy? Can't you see the adults are busy? We're only splitting up now!"

"Um, then maybe not. Just bear with it for a while; no one's going to die anytime soon!"

The One-Armed Elder:
The Hyuga clan is indeed very fair-skinned, a fact that Maki Katsu knows all too well.

Oh, he meant eyes!

Inside the Hyuga clan mansion, a fierce battle is taking place in a brand-new, deep courtyard.

In the cramped room, several white tigers with piercing eyes surrounded Mu Sheng.

Pale, cold eyes; black and white fur; and muscle lines that trembled with each gait.

Everything speaks volumes about how terrifying these white tigers are!
"You audacious fiend! Take this from my old Sun Wukong's staff!"

Faced with the relentless advance of the white tiger, Mu Sheng fought back fiercely, wielding his tiger-beating stick with great force.

The tiger demons were beaten so badly they howled and cried, creating a bloody storm in the room!
After a series of moves, the tiger demons were quickly overwhelmed.

Seeing that they were no match for Mu Sheng in a direct confrontation, the tiger demons changed their strategy.

In a flash, they transformed into several beautiful young women.

With a flick of his wrists, he used a set of palm techniques that used softness to overcome hardness.

"Want to practice Gentle Fist with me?"

Mu Sheng instantly recognized the origin of the tiger demon's palm technique and sneered, "Let me teach you what true soft fist is!"

Mu Sheng immediately formed his fingers into a sword and used the Hyuga clan's pressure point technique to deal with the soft palms of the tiger demons.

Tap! Poke! Depress!
With his sharp eyes and nimble fingers, Mu Sheng easily subdued the two tiger demons' vital points.

"what"

"what"

The two tiger demons felt their bodies go limp and were about to collapse to the ground.

Even in such adversity, the two tiger demons still desperately entangled Mu Sheng's arms, creating an opportunity for their fellow tigers.

really!

The other tiger demons, seeing that Mu Sheng's hands were bound, immediately launched an attack on him.

"A mere trick! You think you can defeat me with that?"

Mu Sheng laughed heartily: "Who said acupressure can only be done with fingers?"

Suddenly, Mu Sheng's body was lifted into the air, his legs moving nimbly through the air like a python.

With toes as nimble as fingers, it struck the vital points of the two transformed tiger demons.

Although the toes are not as long as the fingers, they are thick and strong, making the techniques they use even more violent and powerful.

The two transformed tiger demons who wanted to take advantage of the situation quickly followed in the footsteps of the two of their kind.

Four hands can't fight five tigers!

Even though Mu Sheng has two hands and two feet, he can only deal with four white tigers with piercing eyes at the same time!

The remaining white tiger had already pounced on Mu Sheng, whose hands and feet were bound!
However, at this critical moment when life and death hung in the balance, Mu Sheng revealed a confident smile.

He exerted force from his waist and back, and with a move he had already mastered to perfection, he struck the last white tiger.

"Haha, who says you have to use your fingers to apply pressure to acupoints!"

"Just accept your death, you monster!"

In the horrified gaze of the last white tiger, Mu Sheng's invincible finger pierced through its body.

The white tiger's body was suspended in mid-air, its muscles trembling uncontrollably, completely unable to resist.

The five white tiger demons carefully selected by the Hyuga clan fell to the Gentle Fist acupressure technique they were most familiar with!

It is better to chase the poor bandits with courage, not to be a famous scholar!
Having gained the upper hand, Mu Sheng showed no mercy and instead pressed his advantage to pursue the enemy.

"Demons! I need your help in my cultivation! Prajnaparamita, Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon!"

"Kneading Fist Technique: Plowing the Courtyard and Sweeping the Acupoints!"

"Kneading Fist Technique: Piercing Dragon Claw Hand!"

"The Kneading Fist Technique: Killing Three Birds with One Stone!"

"."

As the saying goes, "The Vajra glares fiercely to subdue the tiger demon; if I don't go to hell, who will?"
In order to subdue the tiger demons that were wreaking havoc on the human world, Mu Sheng had no choice but to sacrifice his own life essence to draw a demon-subduing scroll and convert several terrifying white tiger demons.

As the moon sets and the sun rises, before we know it, it's already bright outside!
inside the room,
Mu Sheng slowly broke free from the encirclement of several long, straight black-haired girls with white eyes.

"I have now fully grasped the art of the white eye!"

With utmost sincerity, Mu Sheng opened the wooden screen door on the south side of the bedroom, letting the warm sunlight shine on his skin.

"I originally thought the secret of the white eye technique lay in the 'eye,' but I never imagined that the 'white' also contained such profound principles!"

In Mu Sheng's mind, images of glaring white tigers with gaping maws lunging at him flashed through his mind again.

Fortunately, his strength was not to be underestimated, which enabled him to subdue these terrifying white tigers one by one.

"You've had a tough time these past few days!"

Mu Sheng patted the weapon at his waist; after several days of fierce fighting, the weapon had been worn smooth and shiny.

After sunbathing for a while, Mu Sheng casually summoned a stream of water to wash his body. Then he put on his ninja outfit and strode outside.

Almost a month has passed since the Hyuga clan uprising.

The Hyuga clan residence, which used to be shrouded in a depressing atmosphere, has now become vibrant and colorful.

"As it turns out, this system of one god and all people is indeed the most perfect system!"

Looking at the surrounding scenery and the crowds of people, Mu Sheng sighed with some self-satisfaction.

He understood a truth very early on: humanity cannot save itself!

No matter how perfect or flawless a system may be, once it is dominated by humans, it will inevitably breed greed and corruption.

Human beings are inherently sinful, and the higher one's power, the deeper the evil will be bred!
To prevent such evil from arising, all that is needed is a god.

A god who is high above all things and people, treating them all as worthless!

The gods are not hindered by power, because all power originates from the gods!

Gods are not tempted by money, because all wealth belongs to the gods!
Gods are not tempted by beauty, because all believers selflessly dedicate themselves!

Gods are not bound by human relationships, because they treat everyone equally!
Of course, this system is not without its problems; if an evil god were to appear, humanity would be doomed.

Fortunately, the humans in the Naruto world are lucky to have encountered a fine young man like Mu Sheng with upright values.

The better days are yet to come!

"I am truly great!" Mu Sheng admired his own virtue.

He doesn't gamble or do drugs, and apart from being a bit lecherous, he has no other faults.

Anyone who sees such a person would exclaim that they possess noble character! (Yes, I'm talking about you! You're still looking! It's you! A person of great virtue and fortune!)
Along the way, Musheng witnessed many heartwarming scenes.

Children born from the former main and branch families of Hyuga play and chase each other on the grass.

Ninjas from the main lineage and branch lineages practice Gentle Fist techniques with each other on the training ground, sharing their experiences.

Those carrying water, chopping wood, doing business, managing household chores and taking care of children—everyone's face was beaming with a free smile.

Even the few workers carrying manure had humble smiles on their faces.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!
Hinata Yuya raised his small whip and lashed it at several branch family members pushing manure carts.

"What are you looking at? Get to work! Thousands of clansmen are waiting for you to clean up their night soil!"

I'm warning you, don't even think about slacking off under my nose!

"No! No!" a one-armed ninja hurriedly bowed and replied.

It wasn't that they couldn't beat Hinata Yuya, a seven or eight-year-old kid, but the curse mark on his forehead made them not even dare to think about making a move.

They never imagined that not only were their so-called 'branch families' pitifully small in number, but any one of the Hyuga clan members could control the cursed seal on their heads.

But what can they do now that they've 'split up'?

The purpose of splitting up a family is to be controlled by the main family, even if there are quite a few 'main families' now.

But to be fair, it's quite reasonable for a company of 20 people to have 19 management positions!
"Lord Kanbaru!"

Hyuga Yuya, who was supervising several members of the 'branch family' working, saw Maki Katsu walking from a distance and quickly went up to greet him.

“It’s Yuya.” Maki patted Hyuga Yuya’s head: “Why didn’t you go to school today?”

"It's the weekend, so you don't have to go to school."

"Is it already the weekend?" Mu Sheng asked, somewhat surprised.

He had been deep in the lion's den for the past few days and had almost lost track of time.

Realizing that he had been so engrossed in meditation that he hadn't been to work for several days, Mu Sheng quickened his pace and left the Hyuga clan residence.

"As expected of Lord Kanbara, even the way he walks is so majestic!"

"What are you looking at? Hurry up and push the cart!"

As he left the Hyuga clan residence, Maki noticed the presence of several members of the Anbu.

Since the clan uprising, the Hyuga clan has been under surveillance by the Anbu.

Although the village couldn't interfere in the internal changes of the Hyuga clan, it was clear that the higher-ups were somewhat dissatisfied with this coup attempt.

The covert surveillance is one manifestation of this discontent.

Even Maki was summoned by Hiruzen Sarutobi several times to inquire about the Uchiha clan.

I wonder if these jealous guys have developed any bad intentions because of their neighbor's excellent example.

To be honest, Hiruzen Sarutobi's concerns were not unfounded.

The radical faction, under the leadership of Rin Uchiha, heard about the successful transformation of the Hyuga branch family.

Instigated by those with ulterior motives, the calls for a coup d'état grew even louder.

What? You're asking who the person with a heart is?
Of course it's that old man Uchiha Setsuna. Could it be that he, the great benefactor Maki Shō, could it be?
As everyone knows, Maki's Will of Fire is the purest among all the villagers of Konoha!
"Kamihara Masaru, the Hokage summons you!"

Just as he strolled onto Konoha Avenue, an Anbu ninja wearing a tiger-face mask suddenly appeared and stopped Mu Sheng.

"See you again? Didn't we just see each other a few days ago?" Mu Sheng said helplessly, "The Hokage is worrying too much. It's just a small Uchiha."

Why do we need to be so careful?
"The Hokage has gotten old!"

Tiger Face couldn't help but glare at Mu Sheng: "Hey! You brat, talking bad about the Hokage in front of me, or I'll tell on you!"

"Hey, we're all brothers!" Mu Sheng reached out and stopped Tiger Face's operative, grinning as he said, "Tiger, I believe you wouldn't do such a thing."

"Why couldn't I do it? As an Anbu member, I would not hide anything from the Hokage!"

Tiger Face, the operative, straightened his face and looked at Mu Sheng with a serious expression.

However, he was wearing a mask, so Mu Sheng couldn't see his expression at all.

"Yes, yes, you're right, I believe you." Mu Sheng nodded in agreement: "Let's go, the Hokage is waiting to see me!"

After saying that, Mu Sheng patted the shoulder of the Tiger-faced Anbu, then leaped onto the rooftops on both sides of the road and headed towards the Hokage Building.

"Huh? You?"

Seeing this, the Tiger-faced operative had no choice but to follow in a flash.

Mu Sheng was right; he really wouldn't report what happened earlier to the Third Hokage.

Those who take people have short hands and eat people with soft mouths.

He received a lot of guidance from Mu Sheng, which greatly improved his skills in both taijutsu and ninjutsu.

There's no need to take such trivial matters too seriously!
Hokage's office.

"Don't worry, Hokage, I'm keeping an eye on things. The Uchiha clan won't be able to cause any trouble!"

"Don't worry, I've got everything under control. If the Uchiha clan dares to cause trouble, I can suppress them in an instant!"

"Okay, okay, I'll be careful. You can rest assured that it's up to me!"

"."

The Uchiha Clan Residence, the residence of Uchiha Rin.

"Rin, things are getting increasingly tense in the village!"

"Fugaku is getting old; it's time to find a new clan leader for the Uchiha clan!"

"Yes, I trust you. I'm relieved to have you handle this!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi: ? ? ? ? ?
