Naruto: The Caged Bird Cannot Confine Me - Feng Hou Qi Men

Fate has already been decided, so what's the point of resistance?

"The character 'Gen' signifies a veiled illusion of mist and mystery!"

As the group hesitated and felt lost, a trembling shout interrupted their thoughts.

The wind on the field shifted the Qimen directions, and combined with the torrential rain that was falling at the moment, it created a thick fog that covered a wide area.

Besides allowing others to make the final choice, this special fog, which can even block out the white eyes, can conceal the situation of the clan's territory and prevent outsiders from spying on it.

After all, Konoha Village is not only home to the Hyuga clan, but also has a large number of security personnel and ANBU members!

Although he didn't know if he would still be himself after tonight, Feng Qi had to ensure that the secret of Feng Hou Qi Men was not revealed.

That's my real Achilles' heel!

The fog combined with the natural heavy rain to form a dense mist with extremely low visibility, covering the entire Hyuga clan compound.

Covered by the thunder and rain, the villagers hiding inside the house were completely unaware of the dramatic changes in the Hyuga family.

The Konoha Police Force, being acutely aware of the situation and knowing that the area was Hyuga clan territory, did not dare to rush in and could only send the message back to the Hokage Building.

Upon hearing the news, Hiruzen Sarutobi stood by the window, his gaze sweeping across the rain and looking towards the direction of the Hyuga main clan.

"So, Riji finally decided to make a move against that kid Fengqi after all."

"That's why he made a special trip over to have me untie the bird from the cage."

Recalling Hyuga Fuuki's unusual behavior and request that morning, Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed with a somber expression, "What a pity for such excellent insight as a ninja..."

Although he had high hopes for Feng Qi, this exceptionally talented young man, Feng Qi was, after all, a member of the Hyuga clan, and he, as the Hokage, had no right to interfere.

Even if such an intervention were possible, Hiruzen Sarutobi, seeking stability, would not forcefully intervene, as that would cause unpredictable turmoil.

As for Hyuga Kazeki destroying the powerful Hyuga main clan?

Hiruzen Sarutobi had absolutely no concerns about this.

Putting aside whether Hyuga Fuuki could stand against the entire main family alone, the Caged Bird Seal alone sealed his fate and destiny!

This is a fact that no member of the Hyuga branch family can change.

Thinking of this, Hiruzen Sarutobi withdrew his gaze, his eyes slightly shifting as he glanced behind him.

Slow footsteps approached from afar, and a gloomy man with a bandage wrapped around his right eye came closer.

"I've heard about the news from the Hyuga clan's territory. This is a rather dangerous sign."

Danzo Shimura cut straight to the point, "Aren't you going to stop it?"

"This is an internal matter of the Hyuga clan, and we have no right to interfere," Hiruzen Sarutobi said without turning his head.

"Those eyes are too special. It's fine for Hyuga Kazeki to be carefree and unambitious, but if they fall into Hyuga Hiashi's hands, they will become a time bomb for Konoha."

Danzo Shimura's eyes flashed with a chilling light as he said coldly, "Even if using force will worsen our relationship with the Hyuga clan, we cannot let this go unchecked!"

Like Hiruzen Sarutobi, Danzo did not believe that Hyuga Fuuki was capable of destroying the Hyuga main family.

What he was worried about was the impact and threat brought about by the inevitable transplantation of a special white eye.

"Stability is the most important thing for the village."

"That's why it's even more necessary to intervene!" Danzo's tone was quite forceful.

Hiruzen Sarutobi slowly turned around and met Danzo's eyes.

After a few seconds of silence, he slowly spoke: "Danzo, I am the Hokage."

A simple, straightforward sentence left the emotionally charged Danzo speechless, leaving him only able to stare at the other person with furious eyes.

"You'll regret this, Hiruzen!"

In the end, Danzo was defeated and stormed off to the door.

Feeling that it wasn't grand enough, he suddenly stopped and said in a sinister tone, "If the special Byakugan transplant is successful, I will use my own methods to kill the Hyuga who received the transplant."

This time, Hiruzen Sarutobi had a cold expression, put his hands behind his back, and remained silent.

Boom!

Knowing that he had to bear the darkness himself, Danzo Shimura slammed the door and left.

……

Sungai tribe.

As the thick mist buried everything around them, the branch family ninja, whose heart had wavered earlier, remained silent for a moment before finally turning around and disappearing into the depths of the mist.

Having suffered the torment of being caged birds, they chose to follow their hearts in the face of the Hyuga branch family and the ironclad rules of ninja.

This was the only silent resistance they could offer—even though they believed that Hyuga Fuuki was destined to lose in this upheaval.

Of course, there were also those who had been deeply brainwashed who stood still with hostile expressions, their faces fierce, willing to sacrifice their lives for the main family!

The opportunity is fleeting. Even if these people suddenly realize their mistake and choose to stand with Feng Qi, it will be too late to leave, because...

Feng Qi has gone mad.

His two white eyes, engraved with occult patterns, bulged out of their sockets, with the left eye facing up and the right eye facing down, constantly trembling slightly, presenting a rather strange and distorted expression.

"He who is born with the ability to govern the universe, who can control the changes of the primordial state, has complete control over time and space."

"Is this the power I gain from completely liberating myself? I'm so strong..."

Feng Qi steadied his unsteady, floating steps, his entire body radiating tangible Qi chakra.

After muttering to himself, he opened his arms, looked up at the sky, and burst into a maniacal laugh that rivaled that of the Uchiha.

"Hahaha! I did it! I did it!"

"I have mastered all the changes in this world; my Qimen Dunjia diagram will eventually cover the entire universe, and I will become king!!!"

His frenzied state was a stark contrast to his previous casual and lazy demeanor.

Suddenly, a chilling coldness swept through the entire room.

"A caged bird that has no effect, a mist that is difficult to see through even with the Byakugan, a special chakra I've never seen before..."

Hiashi Hyuga, who was closest to him, became extremely serious.

Looking at Feng Qi's grotesque appearance, for some reason, the night of the Uchiha clan massacre a few years ago inexplicably appeared before his eyes.

The intense unease that kept welling up in his heart made the high and mighty clan patriarch's breathing rapid, and a few drops of cold sweat seeped out from his smooth forehead.

"Everyone, let's attack together! We can't let him continue like this!"

"Yes!"

At Hiashi Hyuga's command, all the surrounding Hyuga ninjas instantly transformed into afterimages, raising their Gentle Fist of Chakra and charging straight at Fuki.

Feng Qi stood still, his white eyes twitching slightly. He showed no intention of avoiding the attack, and simply slowly raised his finger.

"How dare this hideous monster disrespect the king?"

"The character 'Kun' represents the Earth River Chariot!!"

Boom boom boom!

Feng Qi gently waved his arm, and the floor of the council hall immediately rumbled and cracked into countless ravines.

Several long earthen carts, several times larger than those used in the previous sparring session with Hyuga Hiashi, suddenly appeared, sending the first wave of Hyuga ninjas flying and violently crashing into all directions!

Hiashi Hyuga and several other Jonin reacted quickly, dodging and weaving while unleashing a series of palm strikes to neutralize the terrifying Kun-character attack.

However, the weaker Chunin did not fare so well, suffering injuries of varying degrees.

Some who reacted slowly were crushed into meat patties on the spot by Feng Qi's earthen cart and pressed into the flying debris of houses!

Boom!

The long, heavy-duty dump truck continued its rampage, smashing the entire council hall to pieces and causing it to collapse with a deafening roar!

The cold rain dripped onto everyone's faces, covering the billowing dust kicked up by the collapsed buildings, but it couldn't suppress the increasingly tense and grim atmosphere in the air.

Chapter 15 Do you also want to dance?

The outskirts of the clan's territory.

It gathered countless Hyuga clan ninjas.

Hearing the loud noise coming from the depths of the mist, both members of the main family and the branch family felt uneasy.

Since this Byakugan transplant operation was not a particularly honorable act, Hiashi Hyuga had already ordered that no one was allowed to enter without permission long before the plan was even launched.

Therefore, despite their many questions, these ninjas dared not easily step into the source of the mist that even the Byakugan could not see through.

Their sole mission is to ensure that no external factors disturb the clan leader and elders inside!

At the front of the crowd, Hinata Hanabi stared blankly at the misty water vapor, her cute yet determined little face slightly furrowed, showing some worry.

She had a strange, bad feeling about it.

"Hanabi-sama, please rest assured. This is the Hyuga clan's territory. With the clan head here, nothing bad will happen."

Beside her, Hinata Natsu, dressed in a maid outfit, held an umbrella for Hinata Hanabi with a gentle expression, shielding her from the relentless downpour.

Hinata Hanabi nodded slightly.

However, a hint of unease still lingered deep within those pure white eyes.

Just then, several branch ninjas with the Caged Bird mark on their foreheads slowly emerged from the depths of the mist.

Their expressions were subdued, and they looked utterly lost. They didn't use chakra to protect themselves, letting the cold rain soak their entire bodies.

Just like that heart that's dead right now.

"Hey! What's going on in there? What's with this strange fog and that loud noise just now?"

"Why are there only a few of you here? Where are Lord Hiashi and the other elders?"

The ninjas, filled with suspicion, quickly stepped forward and immediately launched into a barrage of blunt questions.

The branch family ninja looked up and glanced at his clansman who had approached.

The other person's forehead was smooth and clean.
