Naruto, be my son.

——"Hinata, what are you doing? When you were sparring with Neji, you didn't even dare to use soft fists? Are you afraid? Hinata...you disappoint me so much. How could I give birth to... Alas, you will practice more tomorrow."

——"Birthday? When one day you become half as good as Neji, I will celebrate your birthday. If you are not half as good as Neji, then you should practice hard immediately."

——"Hinata, don't come close to Naruto!"

When Hinata thought of a sentence her father said in her mind, a sudden voice interrupted Hinata's inner thoughts.

"Hinata, don't go there." Naruto frowned and said, "What clan, what bloodline... Sure enough, your father is not a qualified father at all. His first concern is not your safety, but The blood in you is the so-called clan inheritance of your family."

Naruto didn't know that much, he only knew that Hinata Hinata's father didn't really care about Hinata.

He could clearly see the deep disappointment in Hinata's eyes when he looked at Hinata.

How could any father... be so disappointed in his daughter?

Hinata, did she do anything big wrong?

Naruto felt that Hinata did nothing wrong.

"Hinata, do you really hope that this is the path you want to take?" Naruto asked Hinata seriously: "If you really want to follow the path of your failed father, then I and I Dad can leave your Hyuga clan now."

"Do you really want to take that path? Do you really want to fulfill your failed father's expectations of you? Dad told me that if you want to become a strong man on the sea, you must first See clearly which path you want to take.”

"Hinata, what I mean is... you want to take a path, not the path others want you to take." In order to make the Whitebeard Pirates grow, Naruto's eloquence reached a peak.

Just like Whitebeard will accept anyone he likes as his son or daughter.

Naruto would also help his father take in family members he thought were pleasing to his eye.

Only in this way can the Whitebeard Pirates grow stronger.

Naruto has been thinking about the number "1600".

This is the peak number of core members of the Whitebeard Pirates.

And when Naruto kept saying "Failed father", Hizu, who was not far away, turned a little blue.

"Hinata, come here!" Hizu didn't say much to Naruto, because Naruto's status was quite special.

There was also a white beard standing behind Naruto.

He still said to Hinata: "You are a member of the Hyuga clan, I am your father, and you are the eldest daughter of the clan! Don't forget that you are carrying my expectations for you."

"Are you going to let me down? Are you going to let the family down?" Hizu continued: "Hinata, come here!"

Hinata in Hizu's memory was a very weak-tempered person. As long as he spoke harder, she would listen to him.

My eldest daughter is also a submissive person.

however……

What Rizu didn't expect was this.

Hinata didn't move at all!

"Father...Father..." Hinata said in a weak voice: "I...Naruto-kun is right. I actually don't...don't want to...become the heir of the Hyuga clan, and I don't want to take on the responsibilities of the Hyuga clan. I don’t want to be on the opposite side of Neji-nii… This is not the path I want to take.”

Rizu was stunned.

Hinata's voice is indeed very quiet, but if you can't hear it from this distance, you are deaf.

"I...I don't know why the clans and families are divided. I also don't know why the clan can't be surpassed by the branch families. I...I only know that whatever you ask of me, father, is not the path I want to take. …”

When she said this, Hinata stopped talking.

Because to be able to say this, she had mustered the most courage.

Even Hinata didn't expect to be so brave.

perhaps……

These are the words Naruto-kun said to himself...

Gave myself a lot of courage.

"Hizu, how do you teach your younger generations?" An elder of the Hyuga clan said with hatred: "Have you ever instilled in your daughter the positive thoughts of the Hyuga clan? Hizu, Hinata will never do that. She can break away from the Hyuga clan, and she doesn’t have that mark on her forehead!”

"Once the blood of the Hyuga clan is leaked, our Hyuga clan will no longer have an advantage in the ninja world." Elder Hyuga said a little excitedly, and couldn't help coughing repeatedly: "You have to remember that the Byakugan's orthodoxy is the most important!"

Hinata Rizu: "..."

No one expected that in just one day, his daughter would have her arm turned outward.

This child named Uzumaki Naruto and this old man named Whitebeard, are the two of them so charismatic?

"Hinata..." Seeing his daughter's rare stubborn expression, Hizu became a little soft-hearted.

Hizu didn't say much to Naruto, actually because he... didn't know how to refute Naruto.

Just talking about the identity of the "head" of the Hyuga clan.

Rizu felt that he had done a pretty good job. Although he was not meritorious, at least he was not at fault.

But when it comes to Hinata's identity as "father".

He did not show all the care and love that a father should do. He only conveyed family concepts to Hinata and suppressed Hinata's ideas that were not conducive to the family.

I want to train Hinata to be the heir of the clan.

To put it nicely, he is the heir of the clan; to put it worse, he is the tool for running the family.

but……

The elders were even more correct.

The blood of their Hyuga clan must not be passed on. Especially Hinata's forehead, which does not have a caged bird carved on it.

"Hina..."

"White-eyed kid." Whitebeard was already a little impatient. For such a completely unqualified father, Whitebeard was too lazy to talk to him about anything.

With a look of disdain on his face, he interrupted directly: "Tsk, it seems that your courage to reject me is not based on your fatherly love for your daughter, but on this stupid and corrupt thing. It seems that I already know that I Something you want to know.”

"Your Excellency Whitebeard, this is not..."

"Gula la la!" Whitebeard didn't want to hear what he had to say at all. He gently lifted Cong Yunqie and then brought it down heavily.

bang——

The entire Hyuga clan’s base seemed to tremble.

This loud noise... also made all the elders and jonin of the Hyuga clan, including the clan leader Hyuga Hiashi, change their expressions drastically.

Facing a man like Whitebeard, they would be lying if they said they were not panicked.

Although the Hyuga clan is very strong, it is one of the best ninja clan in Konoha Village.

And they also have a very complete inheritance.

No one dares to provoke the Hyuga clan.

But Whitebeard is even more fierce!

"Do you have any opinions?" Whitebeard glanced at the dozen "cataracts" in front of him, and he commented sharply: "A guy who is not even willing to support his daughter in whatever path she wants to take is really a terrible person. Brat. Your Konoha village, from the Hokage to the family, is really disgusting."

"Gu la la la!" Whitebeard smiled boldly, and his laughter gave Hinata the greatest confidence: "I am Whitebeard! I leave my words here today, Hinata Hinata is my daughter, she is already A new member of the Whitebeard Pirates!"

"The white-eyed brats of the Hyuga clan..."

Whitebeard narrowed his eyes, and an invisible domineering aura spread. Although Bawang's domineering energy does not have full firepower, it can still give others the ultimate sense of oppression.

Almost everyone present could feel it, as if there was a huge stone weighing on their hearts.

The gravel on the ground was shaking slightly.

The branches and leaves of the trees on the roadside were shaking.

Hinata Hizashi, Elder Hyuga, Hinata Shangnin... this group of people, under the slight influence of Overlord's Haki, were all sweating like rain.

"If you have any objections..." Whitebeard looked down at these people and carried Cong Yunqie on his shoulders. The smile on his face was a bit cruel as a pirate: "Then go ahead and snatch back what you want!"

If Hinata and Hinata really dare to take Hinata back, Whitebeard will consider him a qualified father.

At least he dared to protect his daughter.

In that case, Whitebeard will return Hinata to Hinata and Hinata. A barely qualified father was enough to gain his recognition.

however……

None of the Hyuga clan members who faced Whitebeard dared to step forward, because they all knew what earth-shattering things Whitebeard had done. Even the Hokage in Konoha Village and the Mizukage in Kirigakure Village are no match for Whitebeard.

Even if they all go together...

Can he be Whitebeard's opponent?

If they really wanted to get Hinata back, they would be starting a suicidal war with the Whitebeard Pirates.

does it worth?

The first reaction of the elders of the Hyuga clan was that it was not worth it.

The eldest daughter of the clan is certainly important, but in comparison, the safety of the entire Hyuga clan is even more important.

not to mention……

Doesn’t Rizu have a daughter?

"Hizu." Just when Hinata Hizu wanted to take a step forward, suddenly a Hyuga elder immediately grabbed his arm and lowered his voice and said to Hizu: "Don't conflict with Whitebeard because of Hinata. Forgot you have a daughter."

Before Rizu could soften, the elders in the clan did.

This also made Rizu start to hesitate.

"Yes! Hizu." Another elder was also admonishing. Their attitude was tough and lasted for less than a few minutes: "Hinata is indeed important, but the safety of the family is more important."

Rizu began to waver. Originally, he wanted to argue with Whitebeard from the perspective of a father.

However, these elders successively "admonished"...

Let Nizu couldn't help but start to weigh the pros and cons.

Thinking also began to side with the family.

"Hizu... find an opportunity... to put a caged bird in Hinata's hands." An old-looking Hyuga elder said behind Hizu in a voice that only Hizu could hear.

Rizu froze on the spot.

"Hinata..." Hizu looked at his biological daughter, and the look on his face gradually became firmer.

Hiashi spoke up, "Since you no longer want to do this for the Hyuuga, then from today on...I will train your sister, Kaname, to be the heir to the main Hyuuga clan."

Having said this, he also expressed his attitude.

In Hizu's heart, the Hyuga clan is above the family.

Hinata Hizashi may be different after experiencing various things.

For example, witnessing Hinata's burst of courage during the Chunin Exam, Neji tearing away the fig leaf of the Hyuga clan... and other things.

However, Whitebeard's intrusion prevented this from happening.

This is indeed what Nizu is like at this stage.

"I agree that you will become Lord Whitebeard's adopted daughter."

Hinata's attitude gradually became indifferent: "I also agree with you that you no longer need to follow the path I designated for you in the future; I also agree with you that I am not a qualified father."

"Father...sir..." Hinata was disillusioned with the last trace of Rizu's fatherly filter. She didn't expect that at this time, her father would still talk about the clan and inheritance.

As long as her father says "save", even half a sentence, Hinata will continue to return to her previous life.

However, my father did not say anything.

"Hinata, follow Whitebeard!" Hizu said, "Since this is your choice, I won't stop you. Because now you are of no use to the clan."

Pat, pat—

The cold words made tears well up in Hinata's eyes, and the crystal clear tears fell to the ground.

In just one day, Hinata experienced too much.

Ninja school starts, fights against teachers, gets acquainted with Naruto...

Until I heard my father say such hurtful words.

These things only happen in one day.

"I understand." Hinata lowered her head: "Yes, father."
