He knew that this time the enemy was no ordinary one and would definitely cause huge losses to the village and heavy casualties among the ninjas.
At that time, he will jump out and accuse Tsunade of being unworthy of the position. It is precisely because Tsunade is not a qualified Hokage that Konoha suffered such a heavy blow.
At that time, he could take advantage of the situation to force Tsunade to step down and Danzo to become the Hokage!
Because only a hardliner like him can truly protect Konoha Village and the Land of Fire!
Everyone will definitely support him!
However, the current intelligence reports indicate that the Akatsuki invasion failed, with the Six Paths of Pain completely annihilated. While several houses in the village were destroyed, the villagers, having previously evacuated, suffered no casualties, and ninja casualties were also minimal. It can be said that this defensive battle against the Akatsuki invasion, led by Tsunade, was a remarkable feat!
And several young geniuses emerged, they were the young heroes who defeated Pain! .
Chapter 298 Danzo's Ambition
How could Danzo be satisfied with such a result?
That’s right, Danzo doesn’t care about the village at all. What he cares about is whether he can become Hokage.
So in fact, he hoped that the invasion of Akatsuki would cause as much damage and casualties as possible, and it would be best if Tsunade died directly, so that he could take power naturally.
In fact, this is the case in the original book.
In the original novel, Konoha Village wasn't just razed to the ground, it was turned into a huge crater. Tsunade was also unconscious, so Danzo took the opportunity to come out and question Tsunade for not protecting the village. His unwavering attitude forced the Daimyo to agree, and he naturally became the Acting Hokage. Even if it was just an acting position, he was already very happy.
As long as he does a good job as an agent, it is only a matter of time before he is promoted.
But now, let alone becoming the acting Hokage, it is unlikely that he will even come out of retirement.
"Tsk! Damn those brats, how come they are so powerful? The evil Uchiha brat awakened the Mangekyō, the corrupt Hyuga brat even awakened the Sage's Eye, the brats of the Aburame clan also became so powerful, the most hateful one is that little bastard Natsuki, he is so powerful that even his girlfriend has the Six Paths Ninja Tool..."
Danzo only felt a dull pain in his right eye, which made him want to use Kotoamatsukami on Natsuki.
After all, Xia Mu is so strong. If he changes Xia Mu's mind and makes Xia Mu his subordinate, wouldn't he be invincible?
However, the reading time of Bie Tianshen is too long, so it cannot be used easily.
Otherwise, he would have changed the entire village with the help of other gods long ago. Why would he have to hide like a rat in a gutter all day long, unable to see the light of day?
Therefore, he wants to choose the person who is most suitable to change his mind and help him become Hokage!
"No! I have to take this opportunity to come out! Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't have another chance! The secret of immortality hasn't been figured out yet, and I won't live for many more years. I must become Hokage before I die of old age, otherwise how can I die with peace of mind? ~!"
Danzo gritted his teeth and made a decision.
Anyway, the village suffered a lot of damage this time, so this is a good opportunity to question Tsunade.
Not to mention directly seizing power, at the very least he had to take back the position of Hokage advisor and demand the reorganization of the Root.
In Konoha Village, with the end of the battle, the villagers were naturally brought back.
Looking at the severely damaged scene, the villagers were all terrified, especially when they learned that there was a huge pit hundreds of miles outside the village, they were so scared that their legs went weak.
After learning about the general situation of the battle, everyone couldn't help but feel relieved.
Fortunately, they were arranged to take shelter in advance, fortunately, they defeated the enemy under the leadership of Lady Tsunade, and fortunately, there were heroes who deflected the force that destroyed the village. Otherwise, let alone this little damage, the entire village would have been gone, and many people would have died. Such a result is unimaginable.
Therefore, people are very grateful to Tsunade and the heroes, and can't wait to sing their praises.
As for complaints, there are definitely some. After all, their own home and store were severely damaged or even completely gone, so it is normal to have some emotions.
However, overall the mental state is positive.
Moreover, after learning the outcome of the battle, Tsunade immediately arranged for the Chunin and Genin who had not participated in the battle to come out to work, helping the villagers rebuild their houses and increasing patrols to give the villagers a sense of security.
In a very short time, the situation was completely stabilized.
As for Xia Mu, he had already been carried home by Tiantian to take a bath.
In fact, Xia Mu was just exhausted at the time, but he recovered quickly and was fine now. However, he enjoyed seeing Xia Mu running around for him every day, so he didn't refuse.
Of course, it is inevitable to take the opportunity to get intimate.
However, after taking a shower, the two of them hurried to the ninja tool shop because they were worried about the owner's condition.
The ninja tool shop also suffered some damage. The owner had returned at this time and was staring at the shop in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Dad, are you okay?" Tiantian hurried to the owner.
"Of course I'm fine, I have to ask you that!"
The shop owner quickly looked at the two of them and was relieved to see that they weren't even injured. "I'm glad you're okay! I just hope you're safe!"
Tiantian silently gave the owner a hug. No need to say much, as the whole family understood.
Xia Muze quietly began to help clean up. He knew earth escape and wood escape, so repairing the house was not too difficult and he finished quickly.
By the way, he also helped his neighbor to repair it, and naturally he was thanked profusely and received a lot of praise. After all, he was the main force to defeat the enemy and was the hero of the village.
Xia Mu didn't care about it. He was just helping out for the sake of neighborhood relations with his father-in-law's family.
We see each other every day and have become familiar with each other over the years. We can’t say our relationship is very good, but we help each other on a daily basis.
So, Xia Mu didn't mind helping out.
Fortunately, his status as a hero made everyone look up to him more highly, so they didn’t dare let him work too hard, and let him go back to rest when he was almost done.
Xia Mu did not refuse and hurried back to the ninja tool shop.
The store has been cleaned up, and the owner is listening to Tiantian talking about the battle process. Tiantian briefly recounted how he and Xia Mu displayed their prowess, and the owner listened with great interest.
Although the shop owner is not a ninja, he sells ninja tools after all, so he knows a little bit. Therefore, he can understand how powerful the enemy is, and he is even more aware of the strength of his daughter and son-in-law.
This is a good thing. The more powerful his daughter and son-in-law are, the more at ease he will feel as a father.
"¨. Good son-in-law! Come, come, come!"
The shop owner called out, "Tell me about that fight with the strongest enemy. What was it like? Did you feel any pressure?"
Xia Mu nodded seriously. "The pressure was immense. Seeing how formidable the opponent was, I thought to myself, 'I must win! I want to marry Tiantian and give my father-in-law eight or ten grandchildren. How can I lose? How can I die?' (Wang De Zhao) Then I unleashed a powerful force and finally defeated the formidable enemy!"
Tiantian couldn't help but kick Xia Mu and rolled his eyes to the sky.
What ten or eight grandchildren? She must be exhausted to death with so many!
Unexpectedly, the shop owner gave a thumbs up and said, "That's it! I hope you all take good care of yourself. I'm still looking forward to having eight or ten grandchildren! Or more would be fine too!"
"Oh, Dad, you're going too far. Hurry up and cook. Xia Mu and I are tired and don't want to move!" Tiantian interrupted quickly.
"Okay, okay! I'll cook today! Hahaha!"
The owner was in a good mood and walked into the kitchen with a smile on his face.
Tiantian nudged Xia Mu speechlessly with his elbow and didn't say anything, but Xia Mu understood what he meant.
But Xia Mu didn't care. He was just trying to appease his father-in-law. There was nothing to be embarrassed about. Compared to recounting the cruelty of the battle, it was better to do so and save his father-in-law from worrying.
Chapter 299 Hyuga's Reform
At the same time, Neji was respectfully welcomed back to the Hyuga clan.
The other clan members had also received the news long ago, and both the main family and the branch family were extremely shocked.
Especially some people from the main family, they were trembling with fear at this time, fearing that Ningci would settle accounts with them. After all, they often relied on their status as the main family to show off their power and bully people from the branch family.
Some will even often find excuses to activate the caged bird curse to torture those who have split up the family. The nature of this is too bad.
Who would have thought that a branch of Neji could evolve his Byakugan and become the legendary Celestial Ninja!
Hinata also looked at Neji at this time, with great joy in her eyes.
She has always known that her personality is not suitable for being the family heir, and she also knows that Neji's talent is actually more suitable. She also feels extremely guilty for killing Uncle Hizashi when she was kidnapped. Now that she sees her brother Neji break free from his constraints and successfully become a Tennin, she can't help but feel happy.
"That's great, Neji-nii, congratulations."
Hinata silently wished her well in her heart, but she couldn't say it out loud because she was still too introverted.
Soon, all the members of the family, both the main and branch families, arrived. The clan leader, Hyuga Hiashi, personally led Neji to the main seat and asked him to sit down.
"My fellow tribesmen, today is a joyous day!"
Hinata Hiashi said loudly, "Our Hyuga clan is an extremely ancient clan. Many years ago, we had a Tennin who led our clan to the pinnacle. However, for hundreds and thousands of years after that, our clan has not produced any more Tennin, and our clan has gradually declined. Fortunately, Neji is incredibly talented and has successfully evolved his Byakugan into the Samsara Eye, becoming a Tennin. This means that our Hyuga clan will return to its peak! Now, everyone, greet the Tennin!"
After saying this, he knelt down first.
The other tribesmen, whether they wanted to or not, also knelt down and said, "Greetings to the Heavenly Ninja!"
Neji looked at this scene and took a deep breath. He knew that it was his uncle who was pushing him to the top, and he also knew that this was his chance.
He wants to change the corrupt Hyuga clan, destroy the system of main and branch families, and completely realize his father's expectations!
So he spoke: "Everyone, please stand up first. I have something to say. Please listen carefully."
All the clan members raised their heads and simply knelt, waiting for Neji to speak. It was noticeable that many of the main clan members had uneasy expressions, while those from the branch clans were extremely enthusiastic.
Neji saw it all, his voice filled with authority. "I once read the history of our Hyuga clan in the Senju clan's collection. Their perspective was different from our own, and I learned a lot. I returned to my ancestral land and found the stone tablet left by the heavenly ninja. I understood everything and evolved my Byakugan into the Samsaragan."
Here I want to tell you the real purpose of the Heavenly Ninja who created the Caged Bird Curse!
The caged bird curse seal divides the main family and the branch family, and then each family divides their work, just for the continuation and glory of the Hyuga clan. The branch family is not afraid of having their Byakugan stolen, and can fully protect the main family. The main family's Byakugan is pure, more suitable for future evolution!
This... is this actually the case?!
The pupils of everyone in the Zong family shrank, as if they understood something.
They are wrong!
Neji continued, "The branch family has always fulfilled its mission of protecting the main family. However, the main family has gradually become corrupt after enjoying protection and abundant resources for many years. The main family members have no desire to work hard to become stronger, and have always requested protection from the branch family, even treating them as slaves. This has led to intensified conflicts within the family and even division, resulting in one tragedy after another. How can this be worthy of our ancestors?!"
For a moment, many people in the clan hung their heads, feeling extremely ashamed.
In fact, the clan rules do state that branch families must protect the main family, but they do not say that branch families must be slaves to the main family.
It's just that human hearts are twisted. When a person's life is in the hands of another person, the other person will unconsciously become superior and enjoy that person's protection and service. This is the biggest disadvantage of the Caged Bird Curse!
"I have a good friend who once advised me on the problems of the Hyuga clan."
Neji lost himself in memories and said, "He said that the Hyuga branch family had caged birds, but the main family didn't (cbbe)? Yes, the main family locked themselves in a huge cage called Konoha! The main family was afraid of being captured, and without the protection of the branch family, they didn't even dare to leave the cage. Moreover, they hid in the cage and were complacent because they were protected and served by the branch family, but they never thought about flying!
The branch family is like a bird in a cage, so it can't fly! The main family locked themselves in a Konoha birdcage, making it even more unable to fly, because the main family has lost the will to make progress, like a turtle hiding its head, and even feels at ease that the cage is safe and there is no need to fly!
How can a Hyuuga like this evolve its Byakugan?! How can a Hyuuga like this be saved, other than decaying to death?! How can a Hyuuga like this fly again, how can it restore the glory of its ancestors?! Answer me! How?!
The people of the Zong family opened their mouths, but no sound came out. They were all filled with shame and anger.
Many elderly people were in tears.
Of course, some people may not accept it, but now they dare not raise questions because Ningji pointed out the shortcomings of the Hyuga clan. If they continue like this, the Hyuga clan will be destroyed sooner or later.
Anyone who dares to express dissenting opinions is not just rebelling against the Tennin, but is pushing Hinata into the abyss!
Hinata Hiashi bowed down and said: "Please ask Tianren to become the new leader of the Hyuga clan and lead the Hyuga clan out of the abyss and restore the glory of our ancestors!"
The others followed suit and bowed. "Please ask Tianren to become the new leader of the Hyuga clan and lead the Hyuga clan out of the abyss and restore the glory of our ancestors!"
Neji naturally wouldn't refuse, and said loudly: "Okay! From now on, I am the head of the Hyuga clan! The first thing I will do is abolish the system of main and branch clans, and remove the caged bird curse of the branch clans. From now on, there will be no more main and branch clans. The Hyuga clan will be a whole, and all clan members will be one family. Past grudges will be written off, and everyone must love each other! Who is in favor? Who is against?"
"The Patriarch is wise! The Patriarch is wise! The Patriarch is wise!"
Everyone shouted and bowed again, especially those who were separated from the family were the most excited.
Neji did not hesitate and directly took out the scroll he had prepared long ago, which recorded the method of releasing the bird from the cage.
"Now, everyone in the branch family who has a caged bird, follow this to remove the curse. If there are any children who can't understand, please help them!"
The people from the branch family did not dare to delay. They read the scroll excitedly and then lifted the curse according to the method.
When the marks on their foreheads disappeared, everyone couldn't help crying or jumping for joy, because they had been reborn and had wings to fly.
After everyone had freed themselves from the cage, Neji spoke again: "From now on, all Hyuga members must strive to become stronger! Our Byakugan are coveted, but we don't need to put shackles on ourselves for protection. Instead, we must become stronger to deter those who covet them! Only with an enterprising spirit, only with a desire to become stronger, can we truly fly and allow our Byakugan to evolve!"
Chapter 300: Taking the Head Start
"So, you became the new leader of the Hyuga clan, and you also reformed the Hyuga clan?"
At Natsuki's house, Natsuki poured Neji a cup of tea. Although it was a question, he was not surprised by it.
Neji possesses the Rinnegan, which not only makes him powerful, but also represents the future of Hyuga's rise. The old stubborn members of the main family will naturally push Neji to the top, and the reforms will naturally go smoothly.
"That's it."
Neji nodded, "Thank you for your advice back then, otherwise I'm afraid I would still be the same as before, with no future."
