Naruto: I can synthesize psychic beasts

Five jonin are not too much of a burden for the branch family.

But he felt sorry for his own people, who were unknowingly being used by the elders of the branch families and became pawns for them to please Danzo!

But Hizashi also understood that if this could satisfy Danzo's appetite, it would undoubtedly be a good thing.

Since the night of the Nine-Tailed Fox, a large number of Konoha's strongmen and elite ninjas of the ninja clan were killed in battle.

Minato Namikaze's drastic change in personality caused unrest within many ninja clans.

The Hyuga clan, in particular, not only lost the highly concentrated Byakugan of the main family, but was even in a state of internal division.

If the battle between Danzo and the Fourth Hokage causes Konoha to undergo another major change in the future.

Then it would be a luxury for the Hyuga clan to maintain a neutral stance, and it would no longer be sustainable.

Currently, there are four most powerful forces in Konoha.

Not only are they as hostile to each other as water and fire, but they are also fighting openly and secretly.

They are the old era factions headed by the Third Hokage. Most of the ninjas in this faction are older and more Buddhist. With the retirement of Sarutobi Hiruzen, they have gradually withdrawn from the core circle of the top leaders.

Then there is the Root led by Danzo Shimura. As Minato Namikaze is unpopular in Konoha Village, many ninjas have secretly switched to Danzo's side, and his reputation in Konoha Village is gradually rising.

The third one is the Hokage line headed by the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze, whose main force is the Uchiha clan, which is known for its many strong men.

Both of these factions are the most powerful in Konoha, and their relationship with each other is the worst.

As for those wavering neutral factions at the end.

They are some civilian ninjas headed by advisors Utane Koharu and Mitomon En. Most of them have good ninja talents. They chose to stick together spontaneously, either for self-protection or because they don't want to get involved in party disputes.

Hinata Hiashi knew it clearly in his heart.

The reason why these two advisors have been able to maintain their neutrality until now is mainly due to their unique identities.

Either the young Fourth Hokage wins, or Danzo becomes the Fifth.

Their own rights and interests can be protected.

"Five jonin are a strong force for our Hyuga clan. I believe that person will be satisfied..."

Hiashi looked at Hizashi with a calm expression.

Although the tone was calm.

But Hizashi's heart still tightened, and his eyes suddenly revealed unwillingness and resentment.

How could he not understand how painful it must have been for his brother to push his own people into the abyss with his own hands?

But in the end they had to bow their heads and accept this cruel reality.

Hyuga today is no longer the same as before. How to protect itself in this party struggle is the most important thing at the moment!

He bowed his head and answered respectfully.

"I understand, brother."

Although Hiashi and Hiashi still felt sorry for their clansmen who were about to be sent away, in the face of the survival of the family.

No matter how painful the two of them feel, they will always give priority to the overall interests of the entire Hyuga clan.

It's the same reason as Hiashi's previous proposal to abolish the eldest daughter's qualifications as the heir to the main family and instead nominate the more talented Neji as the heir to the main family.

Everything is to ensure the longevity of the family!

......

"Although my eldest brother lost his eyes, his character has become more stable, because he is also the man who shoulders the fate of the entire Hyuga family!"

Hizashi sighed deeply in his heart and looked at Hiashi with an extremely complicated look.

From the family's perspective, he found it difficult to blame Rizu's indifferent decision.

But under the general trend, it is naturally impossible to keep the family prosperous for a long time without paying some price.

Even though he was full of resentment and hostility towards Danzo, he did not dare to turn against him.

"Then, I'll leave this matter to you. Let the branch families fight for this position. Once you've selected the right people, send them to the Root quickly to show that lord the Hyuga clan's sincerity!"

"Yes......"

The corner of Rizu's mouth twitched, and he nodded grimly.

"By the way, Neji has been performing very well recently. I believe he will definitely be the future hope of our Hyuga clan!"

"I'm sorry to bother you, brother, to take care of the child for me. As the Hokage's bodyguard, I really can't spare the time..."

Although he was not used to his brother Hiashi's current cold personality, Hizashi still bent down with gratitude and respectfully saw Hiashi off.

......

Chapter 621 Itachi's Enlightenment

Generally speaking, those working in the Anbu rarely have a break for several months.

Itachi finished his day's work as an Anbu and just returned to the clan's territory when it was almost dark.

Just as he was about to teach Sasuke the most basic Uchiha ninja technique, the Great Fireball Technique, an Anbu ninja came over.

He came to the Hokage's office alone to meet the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze.

As soon as he entered the room, Itachi bowed respectfully and asked.

"Fourth-generation master, what is it that you want me to come here now?"

Namikaze Minato smiled slightly, his eyes turned, and he seemed to have made a decision. He spoke in a flat tone.

"I have a task for you."

"What kind of mission is it?" Itachi raised his head and asked curiously.

Minato Namikaze took out a scroll from the drawer and placed it on the desk.

Itachi took a step forward and reached out to pick it up.

He quickly unfolded it, glanced through it, and a look of shock suddenly appeared on his face.

Suppressing the shock in his heart, he asked cautiously, "Fourth-generation master, are you serious?"

Minato Namikaze nodded firmly, his eyes full of meaning as he looked at Itachi.

"With your intelligence, you should understand the true meaning of sending you on this mission."

"..."

Itachi fell silent.

How could he not understand that since it was a task assigned by Minato Namikaze, it must be correct.

only......

This guy actually asked him to attack his companions in the village!

Itachi knew very well the consequences of attacking ninjas from the same village!

Rebellion!

Even someone as mature as Itachi had some hesitation about this mission that would affect his entire future life.

After a long time, he nodded solemnly.

"I understand, Lord Yondaime. I will complete the mission."

For the safety of the village, Itachi felt that it was a very worthwhile thing if he could make some insignificant sacrifices of his own in exchange for the peace of the village.

Hearing his words, Minato Namikaze breathed a sigh of relief and looked at him with emotion and worry.

"Even outside, the village is your strongest support. Protect yourself!"

Itachi's heart trembled. "Yes!"

......

The world is pitch black and the atmosphere is extremely strange.

At this moment.

A young man's voice came from the darkness.

Judging from his voice, he should be no more than twenty years old.

"Our carefully prepared plan has come into play! Uchiha Itachi was summoned by the Fourth Hokage last night and is already on his way."

"I told you, for this kind of mission, in the Anbu right now, without the Anbu Chief taking action, only this person can confidently complete it!"

Then, another man responded with a sneer.

Then, his tone was filled with urgency. "Who else is traveling with you?"

Uchiha Itachi alone is already a very troublesome person. If the Fourth Hokage sends more people to Uchiha Itachi for this S-level mission, it will undoubtedly be very bad news for their group of ambushers.

"They are just two ordinary ANBU, members of his team. Their strength is at the level of jonin."

"That's okay!"

"Yeah, there are so many of us, who among us doesn't have the strength of a Jonin?"

"Then it seems that there will be no problem with today's mission! We have achieved such a great achievement just after arriving. What will the leader think of us?"

"Hahaha......"

"I heard that the leader also attaches great importance to this operation and came here in person, right?"

"That person is naturally here to keep us safe. After all, he just joined the organization, so it's normal for him to be worried about us. But the leader probably won't take action easily..."

"..."

The others hiding in the dark also began to chat easily, and it was obvious that they were very confident about the current situation.

"Don't be careless! The target is Uchiha Itachi! He is a powerful ninja who has opened the Mangekyō Sharingan! If you regard him as an ordinary fifteen-year-old boy, then prepare to be buried here today!"

Just as a group of people were laughing and talking, an inappropriate and majestic voice suddenly sounded!

The group looked at each other, and the discussion came to an abrupt halt.

However, right now!
