"Father, please don't! Hizashi didn't do it on purpose. I forced Hizashi to use his full strength. If you want to punish me, then punish me. I have no complaints."

Seeing that his father was about to use the bird in the cage to punish Hiashi, Hiashi, who had been standing silently and worriedly by the side, could no longer sit still. He knelt down beside Hiashi and begged his father.

Hiashi pursed his lips tightly, ready to be punished. When he saw his brother kneeling down to plead for him, he couldn't help but look up at his brother.

Hiashi's eyes were filled with gratitude, and he said to Hyuga Ryusuke: "Master Clan Leader, all of this is my personal opinion. It has nothing to do with my brother... or the Junior Clan Leader. I accept any punishment."

"Master Patriarch, it's not like that. Actually..."

"Don't say anything, brother...thank you."

Hiashi was so excited that he didn't even call his father, but called him "Clan Leader" directly. However, he was interrupted by Hiashi before he could finish.

"It's not like that, it's not like that, it's not..." At this moment, Rizu could only kneel on the ground helplessly and repeat this sentence.

And Hizashi closed his eyes resigned to his fate. His brother had already helped him a lot, and he couldn't let him get involved anymore.

In fact, Hizashi had always known in his heart that when he was three years old and had just been branded as the bird in the cage, the two brothers were just fighting over the toy, and the elder brother deliberately gave the toy to him under the pretext of fighting. However, neither of them expected that this would cause Hizashi to be punished by the main family of the clan.

Hiashi lay in bed for a week, and Hiashi was also

I didn't go anywhere and stayed by his side for a week until Hiashi recovered.

When he first entered the Ninja School at the age of 6, Hiashi, as the head of the clan, attracted everyone's attention, while Hizashi was ignored by everyone.

Therefore, when Hiashi and Hizashi had their first match, Hiashi deliberately let his younger brother Hizashi win so that he could also enjoy the attention of his clan members. Unexpectedly, he hurt Hizashi again.

In short, it is a story about two brothers who, before they realized the difference between the main family and the separation, one wanted to let his younger brother get everyone's recognition, while the other worked hard to get the attention of the clan members like his brother.

When the brothers Hiashi and Hizashi knelt on the ground at the same time, Souji still didn't know what was happening.

Then he quickly asked his grandfather Hinata Kumokawa about the situation.

Hinata Kumokawa also sighed and told Souji all the reasons why Hizashi was punished.

After hearing the reason, Cang Si was stunned!

What kind of bullshit clan rule is this!

What's the logic of competing and forcing others not to win?

What's the point of the competition? Is this a fake match in the Naruto world?

"Master Patriarch, I don't think this is fair."

Before the clan leader Hyuga Ryusuke could recite the spell to activate the caged bird, Hyuga Souji quickly interrupted.

"Oh? What's unfair about it? How can the rules that our Hyuga family has followed for generations be resolved just because you say it's unfair? Or do you think that our ancestors were all wrong?"

After Cang Si interrupted the spell he was about to recite, the clan leader Hyuga Ryusuke did not immediately continue to prepare the spell, but looked into Cang Si's eyes and asked a few questions.

My goodness, with such a big accusation put on him, the 5-year-old Hyuga Souji would certainly not be so stupid as to say that the ancestors of the Hyuga clan did something wrong.

Even if I make up stories about my ancestors in my heart and think that this is wrong, I am now powerless and have no right to say that this is wrong.

Seeing that Cang Si was choked by his words, Hinata Ryusuke looked at him with a puzzled look.

Just as Souji was racking his brains to think of how to save Hizashi, he did not see the eye contact between Hyuga Ryusuke and Hyuga Kumokawa.

While Cang Si was struggling with worry, he did not realize that as he was thinking, the clan leader Hyuga Ryusuke seemed to be waiting for him and did not immediately recite the spell that could attract the bird in the cage.

Although Souji was unaware of this, the two brothers Hiashi and Hizashi who were kneeling on the ground were very surprised.

Especially Hinata Hizashi, he didn't understand why it had been so long and his punishment had not yet come.

But there was no other way but to continue kneeling silently with his brother. After all, he had no say in when the punishment would come.

No matter how the expressions of the four people around him changed, Cang Si continued to think of a solution.

Suddenly, Cang Si's eyes lit up, as if he thought of something.

Since I can't refute the rules of the Hyuga clan, I might as well cut off the source of the problem!

Chapter 9 The Name of Genius

"Master Patriarch, since Brother Hiashi has offended me, as a member of the main family, should I be the one to carry out the punishment?"

Cang Si seriously negotiated with the clan leader Hyuga Ryusuke.

"Oh, you want to impose sanctions on Nichiya yourself? Okay, so what are you going to choose?"

Hyuga Ryusuke looked at the little guy from the main family in front of him with interest.

"Is it true that the Patriarch will not interfere with any punishment I do?"

Cang Si asked cautiously.

After all, we have to take precautions in advance in case Hyuga Ryusuke doesn't admit his mistake. Although as the clan leader he is unlikely to turn against us, we have to be prepared for the worst.

"Of course, as the head of the Hyuga clan, I will not change my words at will. You can rest assured about that."

Hinata Ryusuke waved his hand casually, seemingly dissatisfied with Souji's suspicion of him.

"Well, the cause of this matter was that I forced Brother Hiashi to spar with me. Since that's the case, my punishment to Brother Hiashi is that next time I make a similar request, no one else in the clan can interfere with me."

After saying that, Cang Si looked at Hinata Ryusuke seriously.

The two sides stared at each other for a while, and just when Cang Si could no longer hold on and wanted to lower his head, Hinata Ryusuke finally looked away.

And Cang Si also breathed a sigh of relief.

"It was a close call. I was almost overwhelmed by the clan leader's gaze." Cang Si then thought secretly.

"Hahaha."

Just when Cangsi wanted to ask Hinata Ryusuke whether he agreed to this request, the other party turned around and walked away with a smile.

"Has the clan leader agreed?" Cang Si said to himself.

"Stinky boy, say goodbye to the two gentlemen. We should go back now. We have to continue training in the afternoon. We don't have time for you to be lazy."

Seeing his grandson still standing there in a daze, Hinata Kumokawa shook his head helplessly, then followed Hinata Ryusuke and left first. The look in the clan leader's eyes before he left hinted that he probably had a few more words to say to him, but didn't want the three little guys to hear.

The two stopped only after they walked a little further away, ensuring that their conversation could not be heard.

"My Lord, it's not easy to play a duet with you. You scared my brat."

In fact, when Hinata Ryusuke opened his mouth to punish Hinata Hizashi, Hinata Kumokawa felt something was wrong.

Because the elders of the older generation all unconditionally support their family head in anything, Hinata Kumokawa is like a family member to the family head, Hinata Ryusuke.

And when facing your own people, there is no need to escalate the fighting and competing between children to the point of using the Caged Bird Curse to punish your own children.

Therefore, Hinata Yunchuan immediately thought of what the patriarch of his family might want to test, and the most likely possibility was to test his grandson, so he directly chose to cooperate with the patriarch.

"Elder Yunchuan, I don't want to do that either, but in recent years, our clan hasn't produced any powerful ninjas who can dominate the situation. If this continues, the ninja genes in our clan will be completely wiped out."

At this moment, Hyuga Ryusuke does not look like an ambitious clan leader at all, but more like an old man who is worried about his offspring. Although Hyuga Ryusuke is only in his thirties and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is in the prime of life, it is useless to have a young body if his heart is old!

Hinata Kumokawa was silent. In fact, several elders of the older generation of the clan had already noticed this phenomenon, but they were unable to change it.

Although the clan leader has the highest status in the family, he does not have much restraining power over other clan members. Even if several clan elders unite, they can sideline the clan leader.

The clan leader can control the branch family, and the members of the main family can do the same, but neither side can restrict the other by controlling the branch family.

So when most of the clan members want to do something, even the clan leader can't resist!

For the Hyuga clan, the clan leader's authority is only effective for branch families. As for whether the main family obeys the clan leader's orders, it really depends purely on their own consciousness!

This is also the time when the Third Hokage ordered all clans to prepare for war and be ready to participate in the war at any time.

This is why the elders of the previous generation of the clan all hoped that the clan members would also experience the bloody battles on the battlefield.

This will not only improve the strength of the main family which has been declining in recent years, but also enhance the cohesion of family members, especially the main family members.

"So why did the clan leader test Cang Si this time?"

"That little guy is really good. He awakened his Byakugan at the age of 5, and mastered the soft fist - the palms of the Eight Diagrams. In another two or three years, when his body grows up, he should be able to learn the palms naturally. It won't be difficult for him to master the palms after he graduates from school."

Hyuga Ryusuke quietly spoke of his evaluation of Hyuga Souji.

Hinata Kumokawa did not expect that the clan leader Hinata Ryusuke was so optimistic about his grandson. In fact, he himself predicted that Souji would be able to master the 12 palms of the Gentle Fist at around the age of . The clan leader's prediction was two years earlier than his.

"Isn't it possible that the clan leader overestimates that brat?" Hinata Kumokawa also raised his own doubts about this.

It’s not that he doesn’t want his grandson to grow in strength quickly, but he is afraid that he and others have put so much pressure on Cang Si that he may not be able to bear it.

"Haha, this is not the most important thing. In fact, I am more optimistic about this little guy's heart that is not bound by the rules of the Hyuga clan and knows how to adapt. It is too late for our generation to make changes, right?"

After a pause, Hyuga Ryusuke continued: "In our generation, the rules set by our ancestors must be correct, otherwise the Hyuga clan will definitely have internal strife! But in the future, I hope that future generations will think that these are all wrong!"

After saying this, Hyuga Ryusuke, the clan leader, looked melancholy. As the clan leader, he had to coordinate the entire clan, and the pressure on him was actually the greatest.

If he makes a wrong step, the Hyuga clan will be doomed!

This was the first time that Hinata Kumokawa heard the clan leader's true thoughts. In fact, he sometimes asked himself whether the clan rules were wrong.

But he didn't dare to answer.

"Master clan leader, thank you for your hard work over these years." Hinata Kumokawa didn't know what to say to comfort the clan leader.

"Elder Yunchuan, do you know what makes me most satisfied with this little guy? That is, when he looks at Hiashi, his eyes are equal, which means that in his eyes, there is no difference between the main family and the branch family. A main family member who cares for his people is what I value most!"

Hinata Ryusuke said this sentence very seriously!

Hinata Kumokawa was surprised after hearing the clan leader's last words.

At this moment, I suddenly recalled that ever since Souji woke up from his fainting, he seemed to treat the servants in the house equally. Moreover, he just addressed Hizashi as "Brother Hizashi", which means he treated Hizashi as his brother.

I didn't notice it before, maybe it was because the relatives were too familiar with each other. After the clan leader's guidance, Hinata Kumokawa immediately remembered some details of daily life.

For this reason, Hinata Kumokawa had a complicated look on his face. He asked himself whether he treated the branch family members well usually, and had never used the seal to activate the caged bird seal on the branch family members. But to be honest, Hinata Kumokawa still felt that his status was higher than that of the branch family.

"I'm really ashamed. If the clan leader hadn't mentioned it this time, I might not have considered these details until I died." Hinata Kumokawa said with a wry smile.

"It's not too late to notice it now, so, Elder Yunchuan, I hope to promote Cang Si as the genius of the Hyuga family. What do you think?"

Hinata Ryusuke asked Hinata Kumokawa for his opinion.

"Everything is up to the command of the Patriarch."

And Cang Si doesn't know yet that he has been sold out by his grandfather and the clan leader.

After grandfather and the clan leader left, Cang Si quickly helped up the two brothers who were still kneeling on the ground in a daze.

"Brother Hiashi, I'm really sorry this time. If I hadn't forced you to compete with me, you wouldn't have suffered. This is all my fault. I'm really sorry."

After helping the two brothers up, Souji bowed sincerely to Hizashi to express his apology.

"No, no, no, Lord Cang Si, this is my own fault. How can I blame you? Besides, if it weren't for you, I would have been experiencing the caged bird curse.

of torture."

Hinata Hizashi was really uncomfortable with a head family member bowing and apologizing to him.

"Yes, Cang Si, thank you very much for helping Hizashi avoid this punishment. If you need any help in the future, just come to me, I will definitely do my best to help you!"

After his brother finished speaking, Hinata Hiashi also thanked Sorasuke solemnly with a serious face.

And Cang Si didn't know what to say. It was clearly his fault that Hinata Hizashi almost got punished, but now he had to accept the other party's thanks!

"What kind of world is this? The main family and branch family are really shitty."

Cang Si once again cursed this damn family system in his heart.

"Then Young Clan Leader, Brother Hiashi, I will be leaving first. See you next time."

After saying that, Cang Si waved at the two brothers, then turned and ran towards his grandfather who was waiting for him at the entrance.

Chapter 10 Konoha 29 Years

A year has passed since Hinata Souji visited the clan leader's mansion.

During this year, Cang Si basically spent the whole time in training, and he made great progress in both the development of his Byakugan and the training of his soft fist.

The observation distance of the Byakugan has increased from 1 kilometer when the eyes were opened to nearly 2 kilometers now. Rouquan has also become proficient in using the Sixteen Palms of Bagua, and can now use the Thirty-Two Palms. However, the effect of using it is similar to the Sixteen Palms he performed a year ago. It will take some time to fully master it.

During this period, Hinata Kumokawa also taught his grandson everything he knew.

Including the three standard techniques required for graduating from ninja schools: transformation technique, clone technique, and substitution technique.

Hyuga Soji has already mastered all of these, including other escape techniques, invisibility techniques, and the use of shuriken, kunai and other ninja tools.

Now it can be said that Cang Si has not yet entered the Ninja School, but he has already met the graduation standards of the Ninja School.
