Hyuga Souji is the most prominent figure in the Hyuga clan besides the clan leader.

Being an ANBU, he was recognized by him the first time he entered the Hokage's office.

For members of the Anbu, remembering the names and appearances of all the important people in the village is a basic skill.

"Yes, Cangsi, I believe your grandfather will be safe." Although Uzumaki Kushina said this, she herself didn't believe it.

As boys, Namikaze Minato and Uchiha En didn't say much to comfort them, but patted Sorashin's shoulders on both sides at the same time.

Sometimes friendship between boys does not require many words; a look or a gesture is enough to express concern for each other.

Cang Si could only nod with sobs.

"When Elder Hyuga Kumokawa returns, Konoha will definitely give him the best treatment and will never let a hero who sacrificed for Konoha die like this." The Third Hokage said this in a sonorous and powerful voice without any hesitation.

Cang Si dared to guarantee that if the Third Hokage talked to him about the Will of Fire at this time, he would definitely not be able to control himself and go berserk.

For Cang Si, no so-called sacrifice is necessary.

Only the person involved has the right to say whether he is willing to sacrifice himself to save more people. No matter how much others say, they are just hooliganism.

"Thank you, Hokage-sama. I believe grandpa will be fine." Cang Si said with a smile.

But there is too much bitterness mixed in this smile.

The Third Hokage did not bring up the topic further.

After the Anbu ninja reported some other information about the battlefield, the Third Hokage asked him to leave.

However, Cang Si could no longer hear what was said afterwards.

He is still immersed in the fact that his grandfather's health is not optimistic.

"We can talk about other things in a few days. You guys should go back and have a good rest. There are still tasks for you to complete later."

Looking at the four people in front of him who were obviously absent-minded, the Third Hokage did not continue talking about the Daimyo's plan to form the "Twelve Guardian Ninjas".

Instead, he let them go home to have a good rest and relax.

After leaving the Hokage's office building, the few people, led by Minato Namikaze, walked silently all the way to Ichiraku Ramen.

Several people could understand Cang Si's feelings at this moment.

Especially Uzumaki Kushina and Namikaze Minato, they both lost their parents early. The pain they felt when they lost them was heart-wrenching, and they still feel a pang of pain in their chest when they think about it.

And from what the Anbu members said just now, Lady Tsunade's words basically sentenced Hinata Kumokawa to death.

If you ask who has the best medical skills in the entire ninja world, it is undoubtedly Tsunade, the granddaughter of the first Hokage.

Now that even Tsunade can't solve the problem, there is no way anyone else can do it.

It should have been a joyful dinner, but after hearing the news suddenly, several people's enthusiasm became not very high.

Therefore, I just ate quickly and left.

"I'm sorry, Minato, Kushina, and En. It's all because of me that you all can't eat properly." Cang Si looked at the three of them apologetically and said,

Cang Si also knew that his bad mood also affected his three teammates.

"Soji, what are you talking about? It should be 'we', remember that!" Uzumaki Kushina corrected Soji's grammatical mistakes angrily.

"Yes, Cang Si, have you gone crazy while performing the mission?" Uchiha Yan also deliberately pretended to have a disgusted expression and looked at Cang Si.

"Cang Si, we are all worried about you, you have to cheer up.

Come, we are waiting for you to carry out the mission together." Minato's sunny smile made Cangsi's heart seem to be healed, and his mood became much better.

"Really? Don't say things like that that will move people to tears." Cang Si wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and said helplessly.

Finally, after Cang Si promised to treat everyone next time, everyone dispersed and went home.

After returning home, Souji first visited the clan leader Hyuga Ryusuke, and then went to meet the two brothers Hyuga Hiashi and Hyuga Hizashi.

Then, Cang Si, the elders in the clan with whom he had a good relationship, also visited one by one.

Since the intelligence from the front battlefield has not yet been reported back, the clan does not know Hinata Kumokawa's current situation, and Cang Si did not say much.

In the Hyuga clan, over the past few years, the elders of the older generation have passed away one after another.

Relatively speaking, Hinata Kumokawa, who went to the battlefield, lived the longest.

Hinata Kumokawa, who was already in his 60s, was cured of the poisoning this time.

But the damage caused to the body in the early stage is still too great.

If Hinata Kumokawa was 20 or 30 years younger, his body wouldn't have been so badly damaged by the poison this time.

The reason for the situation this time was firstly because of poisoning, and secondly mainly because Hinata Kumokawa was too old.

No matter how powerful a person is, he cannot stop the passage of time, not to mention that Hyuga Kumokawa is just a slightly stronger member of the Hyuga clan.

If you want to stop time, the minimum requirement is to enter the Six Paths level. Only then can you be said to have escaped the knife of time.

However, looking at the entire history of the ninja world, including the past and the future, not many people can do this.

Just like that, while Cangsi was anxiously waiting, the injured ninja troops on the Konoha front finally returned.

During these three days, Cang Si didn't even train. He just stayed at home, quietly recalling every little detail between him and Hinata Kumokawa.

Souji originally wanted to go to Konoha Hospital to visit and take care of Hinata Kumokawa as soon as possible.

However, it was unexpected that Hinata Kumokawa actually refused the treatment arranged by the Third Hokage, and chose to go directly back to his own house.

Although he didn't know why, Hinata Souji, who had already rushed to Konoha Hospital, had to rush back home.

At this time, the news that Hinata Kumokawa was injured and would soon pass away had already spread throughout the Hyuga clan.

The gate of the Cangsi family was already crowded with members from various clans and branches.

There was a sad look on everyone's face, which showed that Hinata Kumokawa was still a very popular person.

It can be said that Hinata Kumokawa should be the last member of the older generation of the main family.

I remember when Cang Si was just reincarnated into this world.

At that time, there were still several elderly people of the same generation as Hinata Kumokawa who were still alive, but they all passed away one after another over the years.

When Hinata Kumokawa passes away, it may mark the end of an era.

When Cang Si returned home, the entrance was already surrounded by people.

"Cang Si is back."

I don't know who shouted, but the crowd automatically made way for it.

For the first time, Cang Si felt that his steps into the house became heavy, and every step he took seemed to be tied with a thousand-pound weight.

Finally, he entered the front door of his house and arrived outside the room where Hinata Kumokawa was.

Chapter 58 The Secret of the Hyuga Clan

Here, all the members of the main family of the Hyuga clan have gathered.

"Cang Si, your grandfather is waiting for you, go in." The clan leader Hyuga Ryusuke patted Cang Si's shoulder gently, then left with the rest of the clan members.

"Father, Elder Kumokawa really..." Hinata Hiashi looked at his father and said hesitantly.

"Ah." The clan leader Hyuga Ryusuke sighed and didn't say much.

Then, led by Hyuga Ryusuke, the members of the main family gathered here walked out of the Souji family's mansion one by one.

They all knew very well that the rest of Hinata Kumokawa's time was reserved for Souji.

Therefore, they were all tactful and did not stay for long.

All the members of the main family have left, so the members of the branch family will certainly not be so inconsiderate.

In a blink of an eye, with the return of Souji, all the Hyuga clan members who gathered at the house left, leaving only Souji and the servants who originally served Souji's family.

Seeing that everyone had left, Cang Si tried to open the door with trembling hands.

But this door seemed to be of great weight at this moment.

Just when Cang Si was still hesitating and afraid, a sound was heard in the room.

"Is Cang Si back? Ahem."

This cough instantly broke Cang Si's hesitation.

"Grandpa! I'm back. How are you?"

After entering the room, Cang Si immediately shouted anxiously.

I saw an old man lying on the tatami in the room.

His hair was completely white, his face was thin and emaciated, his cheeks were covered with age spots, his eye sockets were deeply sunken, and his hands were fleshless, as if there was only skin covering the bones.

This person is none other than Cang Si’s grandfather, Hinata Kumokawa.

Seeing this scene, Cang Si couldn't stop crying.

The last time the two met was a year ago. At that time, Cang Si had just returned to the village to replenish supplies after being on a mission, and Hinata Kumokawa also happened to return to the village to rest for a while.

Perhaps it was the baptism of the battlefield, but Hinata Kumokawa not only did not look old at all, but instead looked radiant and full of heroism.

I didn't expect that when we met again a year later, the situation would be like this.

"Haha, my grandson is growing more and more handsome." Hinata Kumokawa opened his eyes, looked at Cang Si and said with a smile.

There was no sadness at all because of the impending end of his life.

"Well, of course, grandpa, I am much more handsome now than you were before." Cang Si wiped his tears and forced a smile.

Neither the grandfather nor the grandson talked about the separation of life and death at the first time.

Instead, they talked about some irrelevant topics, as if trying to disperse the atmosphere of parting.

"Hahaha, not only are you more handsome than me, but you're also much stronger than grandpa was when he was young. Cangsi, you've grown up." Hinata Kumokawa looked at his grandson, who made him proud, with a look of satisfaction.

After hearing these words, Cang Si was already crying so hard that he couldn't speak.

"Child, stop crying. You're already this old. If this gets out, you'll be laughed at."

Hinata Kumokawa raised his arms with difficulty, wanting to wipe away Souji's tears, but found helplessly that he couldn't do it.

"No, it was just too windy and blew sand into my eyes." Cang Si used the worst excuse he learned from watching TV dramas in his previous life.

Then, as if it was really true, he closed all the doors and windows nearby.

They say that men don't shed tears easily, but they are not sad yet.

The more Cang Si wanted to wipe the tears from his cheeks, the more tears flowed.

"Hey, Cang Si, don't feel sorry for me. Grandpa has lived enough to this age. He should have gone to see your parents a few years ago." After taking his eyes off Cang Si, Hinata Kumokawa looked at the snow-white ceiling and said

Hinata Kumokawa is now over 60 years old and can be said to be a contemporary of Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama.

From the Warring States Period to the present, the establishment of Konoha Village has taken place.

Witnessed the battle between Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha.

He participated in the First Ninja World War and lost his son and daughter-in-law during that time.

For Hyuga Kumokawa, if it weren't for taking care of the young Hyuga Soji, he would have

I couldn't hold on any longer.

Now that he was able to fight for Konoha, he felt that his death was worthy.

"Cang Si, the thing I can't let go of the most right now is you. I originally wanted to see you start a family, get married and have children, but now it seems I can't wait any longer." Hinata Kumokawa said this with a smile, but it made Cang Si feel infinitely sad.

"No, Grandpa! I want you to be my witness, watch me get married, watch my child be born, and I want you to help me name my child, so, Grandpa, you must survive."

Tears have blurred Cang Si's eyes.

"Everyone has his own destiny, which cannot be forced by human power. Now, grandpa, I have something to say to you. Please don't interrupt me, just listen quietly." Hinata Kumokawa said this very seriously.

And Cangsi saw that the originally lifeless Hinata Kumokawa suddenly became energetic.

Not only did this fail to put Cang Si's mind at ease, but it made him even more heartbroken!

This situation is commonly known as a last gasp of light!

Hinata Kumokawa doesn't have much time left!

Therefore, even though he couldn't bear it in his heart, Cang Si didn't dare to say anything.
