Starting as a part-time worker from Naruto

"First, he's questioning what I said."

Akihara Kagura glanced at Rock Lee and said, "Second, with my strength, I live in fear and dare not call myself a genius..."

"This brat is yelling about Hyuga Neji being a genius. Isn't he afraid that his teammates might be remembered and assassinated by the people from the Hidden Mist Village and the Hidden Sand Village?"

"..."

Hatake Kakashi was speechless for a moment.

Although Hatake Kakashi had never seen Akihara Kagura living in fear, at this moment he felt that Akihara Kagura's twisted theories were quite right...

"We are allies, how could this happen!"

Maki, the leader of the Sand Village, quickly waved his hand, indicating that the Sand Village had no intention of targeting the talented ninja of Konoha Village.

The people of Sand Village and Mist Village really watched a good show, and also saw Akihara Kagura's reckless and lawless behavior in Konoha.

Akihara Kagura is too powerful. Even if Konoha really lets this guy be the Hokage, the entire Konoha will sooner or later fall apart.

"It was my mistake to throw punches at the weak."

Hyuga Neji glanced at his teacher and friend who were crying bitterly, and decided to give in to Akihara Kagura: "Lord Kagura, Li was only speaking for me, and this matter should not involve him..."

"Don't play the friendship game in front of me."

Akihara Kagura glanced at Rock Lee and Might Guy who were still crying beside them, and continued: "You are ninjas, not children. You should understand that there will be consequences for saying the wrong things and doing the wrong things. This is also a lesson for him..."

"..."

Hyuga Neji lowered his head helplessly.

"This isn't Neji-nii's fault..."

Hinata Hyuga coughed up a mouthful of blood and wanted to argue for Neji Hyuga.

"This all started because of the farce caused by your Hyuga clan."

Akihara Kagura glanced at Hyuga Hinata, then looked at Hyuga Neji who seemed to put down his fist helplessly, and said coldly: "From today on, if the Hyuga clan starts a fight between the main family and the branch family again, no matter whether it is the branch family or the main family, I will clean up all the people with white eyes quickly and efficiently, so that you will not affect the image of Konoha..."

"Kagura, calm down..."

Hatake Kakashi quickly stepped forward to persuade him.

The Hyuga clan is the only powerful ninja clan in Konoha. Their Byakugan bloodline limit alone makes them Konoha's strongest reconnaissance force. Such words cannot be said casually.

"Don't worry, I'm not a bloodthirsty person."

After Akihara Kagura finished speaking, he looked at an Anbu ninja and said, "Go and inform the head of the Hyuga clan, Hyuga Hiashi, and tell him that it is my order to keep quiet before the Chunin Exam is over. I will visit him after the Chunin Exam is over!"

"Yes."

The Anbu ninja could only convey the order helplessly.

"..."

Hatake Kakashi remained silent about this. He probably knew that Akihara Kagura wanted to use force to force Hyuga Hiashi to resolve the dispute between the branch family and the main family. However, how could the internal family affairs of the Konoha wealthy family be so easy to resolve?

"..."

Several Anbu noticed that something was wrong and hurried to the Hokage Building to inform the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, fearing that some big trouble might arise.

However, Akihara Kagura didn't seem to feel that this was a problem. She just lowered her head and continued to look at all the bewildered people present, and announced that the qualifying round would continue.

"The exam continues."

"..."

There are still three candidates present who have not participated in the battle. Obviously one of them will be given a bye, but no one knows who will have this luck.

The names of Choji Akimichi and Toth appeared on the drawing screen in the examination room. Choji Akimichi was no match for Toth and unfortunately lost. However, he did not expect that the person who lost in the end was the lucky Gaara. Perhaps Gaara did not need this kind of luck.

“Are there still so many people left?”

Akihara Kagura looked at the people who had passed the preliminaries, frowned and said, "Forget it, let's stop here. The third exam will be held in a month, because the leaders and nobles of other ninja villages will come to watch your competition..."

"During this month, you should practice well. You'd better perform well when the time comes. Don't lose face for your respective villages, and don't cause trouble in the village. Otherwise, I may cancel your qualification to participate in the third exam, or I may be dissatisfied with what you have done and kill you directly..."

"..."

These Genin who passed the preliminaries looked at Akihara Kagura with trepidation.

"Disband."

After Akihara Kagura finished speaking, she waved her hand to signal the group of guys to disperse, leaving only Karin to follow her.

Might Guy and Rock Lee from Class 3 were still crying. Tenten, who had recovered, could only comfort them with a headache: "Alright, alright, there are two Chunin Exams a year! Anyway, only Neji in our class passed the preliminaries, and I didn't pass either. Lee, come with me next time!"

"it is good……"

Rock Lee nodded with tears in his eyes.

Although I was eliminated inexplicably and failed to prove my ability, it is not a bad thing. Next time I can still accompany my teammates to take the exam every day.

"..."

Hyuga Neji stood by in silence.

The state of Team 8 is obviously a bit strange. Aburame Shino, who passed the exam, is missing, Inuzuka Kiba is still arguing with Uzumaki Naruto, and Yuhi Kurenai is still accompanying Hyuga Hinata, who is still receiving treatment.

As for Class 10...

Only Nara Shikamaru passed the test.

However, the atmosphere in the examination room was not right. Asuma Sarutobi tactfully took his disciples away and planned to start preparing special training for Nara Shikamaru.

People from other ninja villages soon left as well.

Just when Akihara Kagura was about to leave the venue with Karin, the head of the Hyuga clan, Hyuga Hiashi, came to the venue and wanted to visit Akihara Kagura.

The patriarch of the Hyuga clan, Hyuga Hiashi, learned the reason for the conflict between Hyuga Neji and Hyuga Hinata in the Chunin Exam, which caused Akihara Kagura's displeasure, so he immediately took a letter from his home and rushed over.

"It seems you have heard everything."

Akihara Kagura sat casually on a railing and looked at Hyuga Hiashi who came over: "I originally planned to visit you after the Chunin Exams. Now that you are here, I only have one question, when will the farce between the main family and the branch family stop?"

"I came here to explain to Master Kagura."

Hinata Hiashi looked at Akihara Kagura and explained in a deep voice: "The main family and the branch family are separated. The seal of a bird in a cage carved on the head of the branch family is a method passed down by the Hyuga clan for thousands of years..."

Hinata Hiashi frowned and continued in a low voice: "If we don't carve the bird in the cage, the Byakugan bloodline will be taken away from the clan members, and the Byakugan bloodline will not be able to cause serious sequelae to the transplant recipients like the Uchiha clan's Sharingan..."

Seriously speaking, the system of the Hyuga main family and branch families is actually beneficial to Konoha, because most of the Hyuga clan members who go out on missions are from the branch families.

The main family had the mark of a bird in a cage carved on the heads of these Hyuga branch families, so they no longer had to worry about the Hyuga clan's bloodline limit, the Byakugan, being taken away by others.

If it weren't for this system, the Hyuga clan would have lost countless Byakugan in the war, and the ninja villages that got the Byakugan would have used the Byakugan bloodline to create countless troubles. Moreover, the Byakugan bloodline transplantation has no side effects...

Strictly speaking, anyone can have a white eye transplant.

"Protection means? Then let's treat everyone the same from now on."

Akihara Kagura glanced at Hyuga Hiashi and continued softly, "Since this is a means to protect the Byakugan bloodline, you should also add a caged bird to yourself in the future!"

"..."

Hinata Hiashi became a little conflicted.

This kind of thing is certainly beneficial to easing the conflict between the main family and the branch family of the Hyuga clan, but it comes at the expense of the main family. The main family has always boasted of its noble status. If a caged bird mark is engraved on the forehead like a slave, wouldn't it seem a bit...

Akihara Kagura, a Konoha high-ranking official, was born in the Konoha orphanage. Doesn't she understand the difference between nobles and commoners too well? The main family of the Hyuga clan is a legitimate noble family, and the branch family is the guardian of the main family. This is a question of status within their family, and it cannot be changed with just a few words...

"The Hyuga clan has been passed down for thousands of years..."

Hinata Hiashi's brows were furrowed into a shape of a "川" character, and he didn't want to follow Akihara Kagura's method: "Once the main family also carves a caged bird, the main family's authority will decline. The main family will bear the responsibility of inheriting the Byakugan for generations, and the branch family will be responsible for protecting the main family and ensuring the inheritance for generations..."

"Wait a mininute."

Akihara Kagura signaled Hyuga Hiashi to pause and explained according to his words: "Am I to understand that the Hyuga main family wants to use the bird in the cage to control the branch family, so as to concentrate the authority of the main family and make the branch family loyal to the main family forever?"

Akihara Kagura thought for a while and asked curiously: "Why is this a bit like Uchiha? Your main family wants to concentrate the power of the Hyuga clan. Is it to fight against the high-level officials in the village and resist their orders?"

"..."

Hinata Hiashi's brows furrowed.

Everyone knows that this kind of thing cannot be said out loud, right?

Although the main family of the Hyuga clan does control the life and death of all the branch families and can use this to fight against the Konoha high-level officials, this kind of confrontation is a kind of game and can't just be said like this, right?

Hinata Hiashi realized his mistake and felt that he should not come to Akihara Kagura, but should go to the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen to negotiate.

Anyway...

Sarutobi Hiruzen is also a serious politician.

It's just that Akihara Kagura, the genius Wood Release Ninja, is clearly going to become the future Hokage of Konoha, so Hinata Hiashi still wants to pay him a visit, but he didn't expect this guy to be so explicit...

However, Akihara Kagura seemed to have grasped Hyuga Hiashi's thoughts and asked, "Or are you, the Hyuga clan, concentrating your strength to launch a coup like the Uchiha clan?"

"..."

Hinata Hiashi shook his head, hoping that he could explain the relationship between Konoha and Hyuga clearly: "The Hyuga clan has never thought of going against the village's high-ranking officials, nor has it ever disobeyed the orders of the high-ranking officials. The Hyuga clan is also one of the guardians of Konoha..."

The Hyuga clan is not crazy like the Uchiha!

What's more, the Hyuga clan is far less powerful than the Uchiha clan. Where would they get the courage to fight against the Konoha high-level officials? Even the Konoha high-level officials could force him, the head of the clan, to commit suicide!

"You didn't want to go against the orders of the higher-ups, nor did you think about rebellion. You also thought about protecting the village..."

Akihara Kagura looked at Hinata Hiashi and seemed a little confused: "Then why do you want to gather your strength? Are you worried about encountering an enemy that is difficult to fight? There is no need to worry about that. The village will protect you."

"..."

Hinata Hiashi was silent and speechless.

The future Hokage should not speak so naively.

Konoha is the Hyuga clan's harbor and also their biggest danger. Once the Hyuga clan cannot gather their strength, and Konoha deliberately harms the Hyuga clan in the war, causing the Hyuga clan to collectively fall into a trap and die, what can the Hyuga clan do?

"You don't want to remove the caged bird from the Hyuga branch family, and you don't want to carve a caged bird on the head of the main family..."

Akihara Kagura looked at Hyuga Hiashi and sighed, "The conflict between your clan's main family and branch family has reached this point. Even the conflict that broke out today made people from other villages laugh at it. What exactly does the Hyuga clan want to do?"

"This matter all started with Neji..."

Hinata Hiashi sighed, shook his head and continued: "I want to meet that kid Neji first and talk to him alone..."

There is a letter in Hinata Hiashi's hand.

The letter was left by his younger brother Hyuga Hizashi. The content of the letter said that Hyuga Hizashi was willing to die for his brother, not because of the so-called order of the main family.

"This is not Hyuga Neji's problem now."

Akihara Kagura spread out his palms and continued, "What we need to discuss now is whether the Hyuga clan is unwilling to accept my proposal and is trying to control the life and death of all the Hyuga clan members forever and gather the power of the entire Hyuga clan to launch a coup d'état or not..."

"..."

Hinata Hiashi felt a little pain on his forehead.

I took the initiative to visit and solve the problem. It would have been fine if the problem was not solved, but why was I accused of such a crime?

Chapter 198: Third Hokage, you will regret it!

"The Hyuga clan has no intention of causing any conflict with the village."

"If the village leaders think that the Hyuga clan's system will bring danger to the village, the Hyuga clan can undergo changes. However, the reform plan proposed by Lord Kagura is still too advanced for the Hyuga clan."

Hinata Hiashi finished stating his point of view seriously.

Akihara Kagura has been putting labels on them, seemingly hoping that this label will lead to changes in the Hyuga clan, but Hyuga Hiashi cannot agree with his advanced ideas.

"I'd better go visit Hokage-sama."

Hyuga Hiashi bowed and said goodbye to Akihara Kagura, still behaving politely. The patriarch of the Hyuga clan knew that he could not continue the conversation with Akihara Kagura.

Hyuga Hiashi still believed that he should be able to use the influence of the Third Hokage to make Akihara Kagura give up the idea of ​​changing the Hyuga clan.

Hinata Hiashi's idea is like those people who are desperate and clamor to see the person at the top, hoping that the person at the top can change their unfavorable situation.

"Please."

Akihara Kagura bid farewell to Hinata Hiashi and spread out her palms, looking very willing to negotiate: "I hope that next time, it won't be you who wants to come and see me."

"..."
