The leisurely life of the Hyuga main family

Is this an attempt to forcibly link Minato Namikaze to this?

There's no reason for that, is there?

Normally speaking, no matter who becomes Hokage, the Hyuga clan's position in Konoha is deeply rooted.

Whether it's Minato Namikaze, Danzo Shimura, or even Fugaku Uchiha becoming Hokage, it doesn't matter; the Hyuga clan's status as the best support remains unshakeable.

The Byakugan's reconnaissance capabilities give Konoha a significant advantage in intelligence warfare compared to other villages. And intelligence is always the most crucial element in ninja battles.

With mediocre combat ability and only needing to protect a small number of clan leaders, he can control a large number of top-notch support personnel, making him a perfect tool!

Therefore, the Hyuga clan's status in Konoha, and even in the entire ninja world, can be summed up in one word: as stable as a rock!

What?

Orochimaru?

Orochimaru is really no good. This guy is already teetering on the edge of madness. If Orochimaru really becomes Hokage, who knows how many Hyuga clan ninjas, or even the main branch, will be sent to the operating table as experimental subjects.

Bai Yue was a little curious about Hyuga Tokuma's unconventional actions; it really didn't seem like a decision that an old-fashioned person would make.

Moreover, judging from the surprised expressions of the other accompanying personnel, it was clear that this was a decision made suddenly by Hyuga Tokuma.

"Is this old man under the spell of Kotoamatsukami?" Bai Yue muttered to herself. "Or is Minato Namikaze just that charismatic?"

Wait! After eliminating all the impossibilities, whatever remains, no matter how incredible, is still the answer!

So, Hyuga Tokuma really thinks highly of Namikaze Minato?!

"He seems to be a very well-behaved child." Minato Namikaze maintained a gentle smile throughout, showing no sign of being put on the spot.

"If you think this child is good, Minato, could you consider taking him as your apprentice?" Hyuga Tokuma asked again.

Everyone present was intelligent, and Minato Namikaze was a genius.

Moreover, since Tokuma Hyuga has already made his hand clear, how could Minato Namikaze not know the current situation?!

After a few seconds of contemplation, Minato Namikaze said calmly, "Clan Head Tokuma, would you mind allowing me and Shirozuki to speak alone for a few minutes?"

"This...of course!" Hyuga Tokuma said in surprise.

Minato Namikaze's answer left him a little bewildered. He had considered that Minato Namikaze would happily agree, or that Minato Namikaze would find out against it, or even that Minato Namikaze would refuse. But he never expected that Minato Namikaze would want to talk to Hakuyue first.

"Excuse me~" After nodding to the bewildered Bai Yue, Minato Namikaze used Flying Thunder God Technique to take Bai Yue away.

"Tokuma, what are you doing?!" Hyuga Hajime couldn't understand his clan leader's bizarre move of directly throwing himself at A.

"Minato Namikaze would be a great leader." Tokuma Hyuga pinched the bridge of his nose and rubbed it, looking slightly tired.

There are some things he can't say!

As the strongest Byakugan scout in the ninja world, Konoha has many secret areas that are protected by barriers. However, not all areas of Konoha are protected by barriers!

Of the six most popular candidates for the Fourth Hokage, Jiraiya and Tsunade directly declined, and Fugaku Uchiha was completely excluded. The remaining three...

All I can say is that while there seem to be several candidates for the Fourth Hokage, this is the only one who is truly qualified!

Especially after today's brief encounter, Hyuga Tokuma felt that Namikaze Minato had the shadow of the First Hokage.

But can he really tell anyone about this?!

He couldn't! He even silenced those close confidants who had noticed the anomaly!

"But..." The group of people present started discussing again. Apart from Hyuga Tokuma, who was still thinking about his grandson, the others did not think that Namikaze Minato would be a threat to the main family.

They also didn't think anyone could kill Hakugetsu from Minato Namikaze, who had mastered the Flying Thunder God technique, right in Konoha's headquarters.

It just shows how little experience we have...

On the other side~

Flying Thunder God is truly amazing!

In a flash, they arrived at the Hokage Rock from the Hyuga main house.

This new experience made Bai Yue a little excited!

As a bookworm with over a decade of reading experience, I firmly believe in the principle that time is king and space is king.

He really likes time and space-related abilities!

Although Flying Thunder God Technique is only the most basic teleportation among spatial abilities, it is still incredibly advanced.

But...didn't you say you wanted to talk to me? You brought me here, so why aren't you saying anything now? Is this place really that great...?

The feeling of being on top of the world, with the entire Hidden Leaf Village spread out before your eyes, is indeed quite wonderful.

"It seems that Jonin Namikaze doesn't like our Hyuga clan at all?" After thinking for a moment, Bai Yue decided to find a topic to talk about, so as not to just wait here idly.

"Why do you think that?" Minato Namikaze was taken aback, completely not expecting Hakugetsu to say that.

"It's just my gut feeling. I always sensed that you were uncomfortable chatting with our clan leader and elders." Of course, those old fogies are uncomfortable talking to anyone.

Besides, you're the Little Sun, known as the most perfect man among ninjas. The Caged Bird of the Hyuga clan isn't exactly a beacon of light.

"The Hyuga clan's ninjas are all very reliable. The Hyuga clan's contribution to Konoha's consecutive victories over the four great ninja villages is undeniable." As expected of Minato Namikaze, he really knows how to talk.

"But the clan leader and the others are too old-fashioned," Bai Yue said calmly, without any guilt about speaking ill of her elders behind their backs, as if that was simply the case.

That's indeed the case. How should I put it? The existence of Hyuga Tokuma and the others allowed him to perfectly understand what those old fogies in the previous books who kept shouting that the ancestral laws were immutable were really like.

"Hehe..." Minato Namikaze chuckled awkwardly, finding it difficult to respond to that comment.

We can't hypocritically teach Bai Yue not to speak ill of her elders behind their backs, can we?

First of all, he is not a hypocrite.

Secondly, he felt that Bai Yue was right.

Moreover, the strict hierarchical branch family system of the Hyuga clan made him very uncomfortable.

"Little White Moon, what do you think of Konoha?" Minato Namikaze chuckled a few times and looked towards Konoha.

"That's good. It would be even better if there were no war," Bai Yue said calmly.

"Yes! The war will end soon, and Konoha will get better and better!" Minato Namikaze said confidently.

The title "Yellow Flash" is well-deserved; the fact that he could unconditionally abandon a mission upon encountering Minato Namikaze is a testament to his strength.

Therefore, Minato Namikaze has enough confidence and strength to end the war.

It was precisely because he wanted to end the war quickly that he became extremely active on various battlefields.

This propelled him to fame, allowing him to leave a trail of novices on the path to becoming Hokage, easily surpassing Fugaku Uchiha and Nagagaku, and closing in on Orochimaru.

"The war is indeed almost over, but with the Konoha F4 around, it won't be easy for things to get better." Bai Yue rolled her eyes and silently complained.

With those old-school idiots around, the Will of Fire is a joke.

The original Will of Fire should have been a gift from the older generation, giving the new generation the opportunity to grow and thrive.

The result was quite the opposite: the younger generation kept leaving, providing an excellent retirement environment for the old guard. One of them even kept pulling off all sorts of questionable moves.

Fortunately, Konoha had a strong foundation; if it were Sunagakure, they would have collapsed long ago.
