The caged bird should not be a curse that cannot be broken. The reason why it has not been broken for so many years is because the Hyuga family cannot do it. The clan family has vested interests and will definitely not touch it. The branch family itself is the one being controlled. Unable to resist.
As for the people in Konoha, no one would offend the Hyuga family in order to unlock the caged bird, let alone the people outside. Who would help the enemy to undo the curse?
For the time being, Naruto can only consider Orochimaru, because according to the current situation, even the Third Hokage, a ninjutsu professor, should be completely inferior to Orochimaru in terms of curse seal skills.
After hearing Naruto's words, Neji suddenly raised his head: "You want to help me break the curse?"
"No!" An angry shout came from the stands. Naruto turned around and saw that it was the head of the Hyuga family, Hyuga Hizashi, who had already woken up.
He stood in the stands and stared at Naruto with great dignity: "This is our Hyuga family's own business. You, an outsider, have no right to interfere!"
Naruto looked at the Hyuga clan head and felt a little funny for a moment.
"What would the Hinata family do if outsiders forcibly interfered within the Hyuga family?" Naruto looked at him playfully.
"Of course we want justice. The Hinata family is not a soft persimmon who can be bullied by others!"
"Okay! What the Head of the Hinata family said is really bold. How do you plan to deal with the Kumogakure Village that killed your brother Hinata Hizashi and almost took away your daughter?"
"You...!" Hinata Hizu was choked and speechless.
"Why are you so stubborn when facing Yunyin Village and why are you so stubborn when facing me?"
Chapter 88 Cause of Death of Hizashi
"Calm down, Naruto, things are not what you think!" The Third Hokage stood up in time to prevent the conflict from intensifying further.
He sighed and apologized to the Fourth Kazekage beside him, saying that he had to excuse himself for a while and deal with other things for the time being.
Then, the Third Hokage jumped down from above and came to Naruto's side.
"Regarding the misfortune that happened to the Hinata family many years ago, as Hokage, I also bear a lot of responsibility." The Third Hokage's tone was full of self-blame. He greeted Neji beside him: "Come here and listen together. What happened that year the truth.”
"The truth?" Neji felt puzzled, but out of his trust in the Third Hokage, he immediately raised his hand and abstained. After the examiner Moonlight Hayate announced that Naruto had won, Neji trotted to the Third Hokage's side.
"Head of the Hinata family, come with us!" The Third Hokage greeted and led a few people to the lounge next to the competition venue.
When Hinata Hinata, Hyuga Neji, and Uzumaki Naruto all arrived, the Third Hokage put down the pipe in his hand and said in a serious tone: "Ningji... Actually, what happened back then is not the responsibility of the Hyuga family head. , more responsibility lies with me.”
At this moment, the Third Hokage looked more like an old man than ever before. He said with a deep regret: "That year, our Konoha finally ended the war with Kumoyin Village, so we had Peace talks."
"We expected that the other party would be evil, but we didn't expect that they would be so vicious. They planned to abduct the clan's Hinata from the very beginning. Presumably they intended to imitate Kirigakure."
"Misty Hidden Village?" Neci and Naruto looked at each other, only Hizu looked serious about this: "In the great ninja war many years ago... people from the Zong family also went to the battlefield to support, but there they were. He was killed and his Byakugan was taken away.”
"The other party later successfully transplanted the Byakugan, and became famous because of it, and became a very important figure in Kirigakure Village. We tried our best to recover the Byakugan, but we all failed."
"It was also from that time that the outside world generally learned that the Hyuga clan did not have a caged bird. Normally, the caged bird would be released after the death of a ninja from the Hyuga clan and destroy the Byakugan before that. And a clan without a caged bird might Losing the Byakugan after death.”
After hearing this, Naruto couldn't help complaining: "So, since the caged bird is to protect the Byakugan, why don't the clan members use the caged bird? You have already lost one, but in the end, you have never lost the Byakugan. Are the family divisions getting worse?"
Hinata Hizashi lowered his head in shame: "To tell you the truth, I actually think this is wrong. But even though I am the head of the Hinata family, I don't have enough power to change this situation."
Although Hyuga Hizatsu is the head of the family, the Hyuga family is not his sole authority. The clan still has the previous generation of family heads and elders. They represent the conservative forces within the clan, and Hyuuga has no ability to go beyond them to change the rules of the Hyuga clan.
"But why did you agree to such unreasonable conditions? It was obvious that the other party wanted to take away the blood of the Hyuga family, but in the end we paid the price?"
Having said this, Neji still couldn't understand what happened that year. His father was loyal to the Hyuga family, so why did he end up like this?
The Third Hokage answered him guiltily: "Because at that time, Konoha could no longer afford the war, and there was no way to continue the war."
"At that time, we had just experienced the Nine-Tails Rebellion. The fourth generation Hokage was killed in the battle, and his wife Uzumaki Kushina also passed away. In the process of stopping the Nine-Tails, the chuunin jounin in the village were also killed and wounded. countless......."
Thinking of what happened that night, the Third Hokage still feels a sting in his heart.
If he fought the Kyuubi in an open area, the casualties might not be that big, but the battlefield happened to be in the Leaf Village.
The ninjas had no room to dodge and could only go head-to-head with the nine-tails, which was as huge as the mountain. Many experienced chuunin and jounin died in that battle.
Overnight, Konoha lost two Kage-level experts, and countless Chuunin and Jonin. Even during the Ninja World War, the losses had never been so heavy.
Moreover, at that time, Konoha also experienced the defection of Orochimaru, and Jiraiya, who was also a Sannin, also left the village because of frustration. Konoha, which originally had many Kage-level strongmen, suddenly had only The third Hokage is the only one who is apparently strong.
This is why the fifth generation was not selected, but the third generation was allowed to return to power, because no one could resist.
If the Fourth Hokage had not died and the Night of the Nine-Tails had not happened, Kumogakure would never have had the guts to go wild in Konoha.
I think back then, the Fourth Hokage once single-handedly challenged the strongest AB combination in Kumogakure Village, and single-handedly forced back the future Fourth-generation Raikage and Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki, leaving a deep impression on Kumogakure Village.
It's a pity that the Fourth Hokage died too early. If he were still alive, Konoha Village would not be what it is now.
"Because you don't have the ability to fight another war with other big countries, you agreed to the conditions of Cloud Hidden Village?" Naruto asked.
"Yes...this is caused by my incompetence." The figure of the Third Hokage became more and more stooped.
"But why is it my father who died!" Neji shouted dissatisfied.
"Neji, actually at that time, I was already prepared to die." Hinata Hiashi's words caused Neji to shut down instantly.
"Since you are ready to die, why is my father the last to die?"
"Hizashi decided to do this." Hinata Hizashi recalled what happened that day.
In the clan meeting attended by the Third Hokage, Hyuuga Hinashi had already planned to die and use his body in exchange for peace.However, his move was opposed by other elders of the clan.
They proposed that Hizashi, who looked exactly like Hizashi, be a substitute for death, and said Hizashi had already agreed.
At that time, Hizu couldn't believe his ears. When the elders talked about letting Hizashi die as a substitute, their expressions were so unconcerned, as if they were just disposing of the life of a chicken or puppy.
What he couldn't understand even more was why his brother agreed.
"Why, Hizashi!" Hizashi asked his younger brother. He clearly hated the clan, hated his fate as a branch family, hated the caged bird above his head, and hated his own destiny.
He clearly hated the idea of splitting up the family and sacrificing for the clan, but why did he still agree?
Was it forced?Did the elders of the Zong family use a caged bird to coerce him?
Under Hizu's shocked eyes, Hizashi showed a rare soft expression on his face: "Brother, I still hate the clan to this day, and this has not changed at all."
"But, I only hate the clan, but I don't hate my own brother."
"I hope you remember that I am not going to die for the clan, I just want my biological brother to live, that's all. Please convey this to Neji, but it's best to wait until he grows up. He still can’t understand it now.”
Hizashi's words and expressions at that time still shock Hizashi to this day.
He didn't die for the clan, but for his relatives.This sentence cannot be forgotten by Rizu.
After hearing those words, Hizashi's inner emotions burst out. He finally realized clearly once again that he and Hizashi were brothers from the same mother.
After becoming a member of the clan, he gradually forgot about this and always regarded the two parties as the head of the clan and the head of the branch family. However, his younger brother always remembered this brotherhood in his heart.
Nizu wanted to stop him, but was knocked down by Hizashi. His younger brother, who had been sparring until the midpoint, showed his strong strength at that moment. Nizu could only watch him drift away, towards A point of no return.
"Are you kidding me? This is just an excusing excuse from your clan!" Neji became very excited, but Hizu suddenly leaned down in front of him and knelt on the ground in a soil seat position.
"I am telling you this matter as Hizashi brother, not as the head of the Hyuga family. Please believe me. I will do my best to change the Hyuga clan in the future, and I will also give this belief to Hina. If Tian and Hanabi continue, one day, the Hyuga family will change!"
.....................
Chapter 89 This is my way of ninja
"Change..." Naruto chewed the word carefully.
"How do you plan to change it, Head of the Hyuga family? Do you have any plans or plans on how to change this deep-rooted bad habit that has been passed down for countless years?"
Hinata Hizu was silent for a while: "To be honest, I haven't come up with any good ideas yet. I can't fight against the elders of the clan on my own."
"Is it possible that the head of the family plans to rely on his age to survive them, and then change when he takes over the power?"
"Hmm... Actually, I have also considered this method." Rizu admitted with some embarrassment.
"What kind of method is this?" Naruto laughed dumbly, "How about I tell you a more effective method."
"What is it?" Rizu became interested for a moment.
The reason why Naruto was called to this internal Hyuga meeting was not because he had just stated on the court that he wanted to help Neji break the curse. In fact, there have been many people who have been dissatisfied with this rule over the years, but The Hyuga family doesn't care about these people at all.
Naruto was called in because both Hizu and the Third Hokage saw an extremely terrifying potential in him.
In this Chuunin exam, whether it was the written test stage, the battle in the Forest of Death, or the subsequent preliminaries and now the finals, Naruto showed a strength and mentality that was extremely inconsistent with his age.
He is only 12 years old this year. He has such achievements and mentality at the age of 12. When he becomes an adult in the future, he will definitely surpass any Hokage except the first Hokage.
If nothing unexpected happens later, he will most likely succeed as Hokage in the future.
It may be strange to tell a 12-year-old boy to inherit the position of Hokage, but Naruto's current level of performance can indeed make people draw this conclusion. As long as he does not die young or be crippled and blackened for other reasons, the future He must be the perfect candidate for the position of Hokage.
Therefore, they called Naruto into this internal discussion within the family, because Naruto's attitude may very well determine the fate of the Hyuga clan in the future.
And Naruto was able to come up with an idea about the Hinata family, which made Hizu very interested, because maybe this idea is just an idea now, but in the future, after Naruto becomes Hokage, it will be possible to realize it.
Naruto said slowly to Hizu: "Since the Hidden Cloud Village asked you to hand over the body, they are willing to compromise, it means that these old people are also bullying and afraid of the strong, and they are also afraid of people who are obviously untouchable. In this case, I can You have to be a bad person by force. I already said during the exam that I would help Ningji break the curse. When you go back, tell them that in the future, I will also help other people in the branch family break the curse."
"You can make those old men see me as a thorn in their flesh, and I will also use practical actions to make them sleepless and think carefully about whether they have the ability to become my enemy."
"After they realize that I am no easier to mess with than Yunyin Village, if you propose changes, I believe they will be happy to accept it."
Hearing this, Rizu couldn't help but remind him: "But in this case, they will inevitably have unfavorable ideas for you. As the head of the family, I can suppress it openly, but maybe they will target you secretly, because The matter of breaking up the curse by separating the families really touched their bottom line."
Naruto heard the words and smiled casually: "It doesn't matter, will I be afraid of them? I come and go alone, alone, what do I have to be afraid of? If you want to target me, just do it."
The status of an orphan became a convenience at this moment. If Naruto had both parents and a family and relatives, then he might really be a little constrained.
However, the reality is that he is alone, with no father or mother, and no particularly good friends in the eyes of the public. If they want to harm him, they can only attack him himself.
Hearing this, Hinata felt very incomprehensible: "Naruto, you are not from our Hyuga family, and you were not familiar with Neji at all before. If you insist on speaking, I only know that Hinata will occasionally walk around with you, but But she is from the Zong family, so logically speaking, you don’t need to care about the caged bird at all.”
"I'm not doubting you, I really want to know, what's the reason for you to do this even if you become an enemy of the Hinata family?"
Facing Hizu's eyes that were eager for answers, Naruto told him seriously: "What I pursue is nothing more than the understanding of thoughts."
"What?" Rizu didn't understand.
"I do what I want to do, no matter whether it is difficult or not, as long as it is what I want to do, I will do it. The Hinata family does not have much to do with me, but things like caged birds that are against human ethics make me very uncomfortable. , I cannot turn a blind eye to this kind of thing. If I turn a blind eye because I am afraid of trouble, I will be angry and it will be troublesome for me."
In the practice of Qi, a very important point is the state of the practitioner. If you are troubled by annoying things, you will not achieve results no matter how long you practice. Only when you practice with clear thoughts, you will achieve success.
This idea can be about getting stronger, it can be about simply pursuing martial arts, it can be about revenge, unwillingness, or anger, as long as the idea is pure.
The most fearful thing is the situation where the qi is impure, the righteousness is impure, the evil qi is insufficient, the person wants to be a good person but dare not take responsibility, and wants to be a bad person but dare not bear the price. Such people cannot become stronger.
Therefore, Naruto's pursuit is always to understand the idea. The reason why he abandoned his friends in the Dragon Ball world and returned to the world of ninjas is that although some of his friends have already married and started a business, and even Xiaofang and Bra have grown up, he has no worries anymore. for the sake of.
But more importantly, it is because he wants to explore his own life experience and change the world.
Only after surviving in the Dragon Ball world did Naruto know what kind of purgatory the ninja world was. He came back with the desire to change this purgatory.
Therefore, it is impossible for him to turn a blind eye to anything on this road. No matter how troublesome it is, he will do it.If he escapes because he is afraid of trouble or danger, he may never make any progress in his life.
On the contrary, the more he travels in trouble and danger, the more pure his thoughts will be, the more he will progress at a terrifying speed.
Pure enough thoughts are the best cornerstone for Qi progress.
Nizu obviously couldn't understand this idea. He just thought it was incredible. Would someone who could stay out of the situation be willing to step into the quagmire for others?
When he raised his head to look at Naruto, there was something different in his eyes.
Uzumaki Naruto, your thoughts are really amazing. If you become Hokage in the future, what will the Leaf Village, and even this world, look like?
Chapter 90 Orochimaru: I will take good care of you
To outsiders, the four of them only entered the lounge to chat for a short while, and when they came out they were already as if nothing had happened. It was probably the Third Hokage who came to mediate the conflict.
But only the four people in the room knew that in this short period of time, a major event had been decided that would change Hinata's future.
"Next, the game continues!" Moonlight Hayate read out the names on the game list: "The next game will be between Sasuke Uchiha and Gaara from Suna Ninja Village!"
"It's time for Sasuke's game!" Naruto jumped up in anticipation, jumping directly from the venue to the audience.
Sasuke flew down to the competition venue the moment Moonlight Hayate read out his name, and Gaara also arrived at the same time.
However, Gaara's hands seemed to be stained with some blood.
As if noticing Sasuke's gaze, Gaara took the initiative to explain: "Just before I came down, there were a few boring guys who said that they had bet heavily on a certain side's victory, so they wanted to ask me to control the game. "
"It was quite boring, so I just killed them." A ferocious expression gradually appeared on Gaara's face.
The blood of those people was like a switch, opening up the bloodthirsty side of Gaara's heart.
"This guy has a very murderous intent." Sasuke frowned. He could feel that this battle would probably be a matter of life and death.
He had no intention of killing the opponent, but Gaara was definitely fighting with the mentality of killing him.
