Traveling through three generations: Making Konoha great again!

Hyuga Hizashi, dressed in the beige trench coat of a squad leader, arrived at the gate of the clan's territory.

Logically speaking, members of the secret service should not wear their uniforms after get off work.

One reason is to keep their identities confidential, but despite this requirement, the effect is generally limited.

After all, once you join the secret service, you'll naturally have fewer regular missions to perform. At most, you'll do some light tasks during your shifts and rest days.

The teammates who had previously teamed up with them also understood.

The money was secondary; the main purpose of doing tasks during breaks was to relieve the high pressure from working in the shadows.

Tasks like escorting goods not only allow you to chat and enjoy the scenery, but also help you maintain your physical condition.

Secondly, it's because the Anbu is, after all, a violent organization directly under the Hokage, with functions such as surveillance.

Wearing dark clothing can make others feel intimidated and unwilling to interact with you.

However, the Hyuga's daily range is different...

He was personally invited by the Hokage to join the Anbu in public; everyone in the village knew that…

Moreover, he liked the outfit.

He didn't have many friends to begin with; most of his close friends were people he knew from within the secret service...

Hyuga Hizashi looked at the gate of the clan's territory and smiled slightly.

Every time he saw the clan emblem inlaid on it, the caged bird mark on his forehead would feel a slight chill.

But the dark uniform she wore emitted warmth, dispelling the chill.

"Hiashi-kun, long time no see..."

"You look really smart in that outfit! This beige trench coat is quite different from the one you wore before..." The Hyuga branch family member guarding the gate greeted Hizashi with shining eyes.

His name is Hyuga Iroha.

Although the main family forbade the branch family from discussing the matter of the saka (day servants).

But how could it possibly be blocked?

The story of Hatake Sakumo accompanying Hizashi back to the clan's territory and confronting the clan leader Hyuga Tenzo is like a banned but wildly popular folktale, passed down orally among every branch family.

During the ninja clan era, even the idea of ​​a branch family never existed...

At most, one can only hope that the next clan leader will be understanding and compassionate about the difficulties of dividing the family...

As for confronting the clan leader head-on, standing on equal footing, laughing loudly as he left?

It belongs to the 'most fantastical' category!

"Fortunately, I was favored by the Hokage..." Hyuga Hizashi's lips unconsciously curled into a smile as he stopped and chatted with the branch family members, saying with emotion:

"How is the clan doing lately? You know, I don't come back often these days; I have to do things for the village."

"I've made a few friends in the dark, but I've neglected my old brothers who split up with me."

Hyuga Hizashi was subtly revealing his current situation—he was valued by the Hokage and was doing well in the Anbu…

It certainly carries the implication of showing off one's divine power in front of others.

But the real intention was to dispel any concerns the branch family might have about joining the Dark Side…

If he does well in his first attempt, it will prove that this path is the right one, and besides, that's a fact.

"Hey, it's alright, it's alright. You go ahead and take care of your business outside!"

Hyuga Iroha subconsciously glanced around, then lowered her voice slightly: "The main family has been talking about you lately, saying this situation is unprecedented in a century, and they've also been discussing the Hokage..."

Hyuga Hizashi narrowed his eyes: "What are you talking about?"

Iroha felt that the kind-looking Hizashi in front of her suddenly became dangerous.

The tone was fairly calm.

But combined with that dark-skinned trench coat, it gives off a feeling that he might draw his sword at any moment...

Iroha calmed herself down and said softly:

"He didn't say anything too outrageous, but basically he said that the Hokage's sudden interference in Hyuga affairs was somewhat of a violation of the unspoken rules, and that he didn't consult them beforehand?"

"I guess you could call it a complaint..."

Hyuga Hizashi snorted coldly.

If it were a curse, he would not only have to report it to the Hokage, but also have to have a talk with Danzo!

The kind and benevolent Hokage might not care about the nagging of the main branch, because he has a great character.

But Minister Danzo will definitely take this matter seriously!

Even if they complain, the sir will still report it.

"Brother Hizashi, is it possible that we also have a chance?" Another branch family member who guards the gate is named Hyuga Himon.

He was still a teenager, and he spoke without mincing words.

Hyuga Hidetoshi's eyes lit up as he looked at Hizashi: "Is the Anbu short-handed? I heard the village has just formed a new patrol unit. If you can't go to the Anbu, you can go there..."

Hyuga Iroha was taken aback. Young people are brave, speaking so directly.

But he immediately seized the opportunity and exclaimed, "Brother Rishashi, I want to go too!"

Hinata Hizashi smiled inwardly.

His plan was already half successful…

Iroha and Himon were both extremely talented ninjas in the branch family.

The more talented one is, the stronger their yearning for freedom becomes…

"I've taken your thoughts to heart."

Hyuga Hizashi smiled slightly: "Tell the brothers in the branch family to come to me anytime if there's any trouble."

"If I'm not here, I'll find Lord Sakumo... If it's urgent enough, I might even go directly to the Hokage..."

"Although we are a branch family of the Hyuga clan, we are first and foremost ninjas of Konoha."

"The Hokage's Will of Fire is to treat every ninja who wants to serve the village equally," Hyuga Hizashi said softly.

"You probably don't know this..."

"Even the Hokage could discover the potential in that guy Dai who was ridiculed!"

"He has mastered an extremely powerful secret technique, and his chakra is stronger than mine. He has become a special Jonin and is now my colleague, serving as the physical training instructor for the Anbu."

Iroha and Himon stared wide-eyed.

That Matt Days?

Is he even stronger than Brother Hizashi?

The longing in their eyes grew stronger, and the image of Hiruzen Sarutobi in their hearts grew ever larger.

The Hokage who turns lead into gold...

Hyuga Hizashi took in their reactions, smiled inwardly, and understood everything without saying a word.

Get it!

Iroha and Himon opened the gate for Hizashi, their actions were diligent, and they genuinely wanted to do so.

This is the hope for a family division!

As Hizashi stepped inside, he saw Hyuga Takashi accompanied by a member of the branch family, who was pointing and gesturing around.

The two looked at each other.

Hinata Takashi's smile froze instantly.

He received orders from Hyuga Tenzo to speak with the Hizashi Hui people today…

Hyuga Takashi was still thinking that even if Hizashi joined the Anbu, he was still a member of the main family.

There won't be open hostility, but we still have to maintain appearances.

But then I saw the captain's beige trench coat.

Hinata Takashi's body seemed to move on its own; a smile involuntarily spread across his frozen face as he greeted Hizashi warmly.

"Hi, it's been a long time!"

He completely forgot that he was the first to jump out when Hizashi and Hyuga Tenzo were facing off.

"Takashi, it's you." Hyuga Hizashi said with a forced smile, "Still the same as always..."

Hyuga Takashi's expression stiffened, but he didn't intend to refute Hyuga Hizashi.

As a member of the main family who lacked talent, his limited presence was mainly limited to showing off his abilities to members of the branch family.

Over time, I did feel bored and empty inside…

How could he not want to be respected by ninjas outside his clan's territory?

A thought flashed through his mind.

If he could, would he be willing to give up his status as the head of the Hyuga family and trade it with the current Hyuga Hizashi?

He subconsciously denied it, but it seemed as if another voice was emerging in his heart.

"Sigh, I didn't want to either..."

"Hizashi, the clan chief has something to discuss with you. I was just about to come find you." Hyuga Takashi forced a smile, then turned and left with little interest.

Hyuga Hizashi secretly noted down this reaction.

The main family doesn't seem to be a monolithic entity either...

They then entered the clan chief's reception room.

Richi and his clan chief father, Tenzo, sat facing each other, separated by a chessboard.

Both of them waited for the other to speak first.

After a long while, it was Hyuga Tenzo who spoke first: "A letter has arrived from the Kaguya clan."

"Father, so you've been secretly colluding with hostile forces outside the village all along..."

"Are you here to turn yourself in?"

The response from the patriarch made this clan leader, who always prided himself on his wisdom and ability to maintain balance, unable to keep his composure.

Starting with such a huge hat...

You want your father to die!
