Chapter 146 The Old Man From the Hyuga Clan Is so Bold!

The words "caged bird curse seal" came out, and Hinata was startled. She stared at the scroll in her hand with her eyes wide open, her eyes full of wonder.

"Heh, are you scared?"

Ningci took in all of Hinata's reactions, put his hands in his pockets, and said expressionlessly: "Is it strange? Do you wonder why the family wants to carve the legendary caged bird on the eldest lady of the Hyuga clan?"

"Miss Hinata... Perhaps, this is the last time I call you Miss. Because from today on, Hyuga Hinata is no longer a member of the Hyuga clan."

"After all the high-level members of the Hyuga clan discussed, your sister Hyuga Hanabi will inherit your identity."

"Your high-ranking status has fallen to the bottom."

Then Ningci suddenly realized that Hinata herself was not very shocked by what he said, let alone panic.

Hinata's startled reaction seemed to be limited to the caged bird.

She didn't seem to care about being kicked out of the clan.

She didn't seem to care about becoming a member of the branch family.

On the contrary, the others were shocked.

"Is Hyuga Hinata no longer the eldest daughter of the main family of the Hyuga clan?" Shikamaru felt as if he had heard a big secret, and his subconscious told him that this secret would cause a lot of trouble.

Especially before Hyuga Hinata said those deafening words, which made Shikamaru feel that the trouble was even greater.

These guys, can they not reveal the secrets of their family one after another?

Can they consider whether others are willing to know the secrets?

But then again.

The bird in the cage curse seal...

It sounds so familiar!

Shikamaru remembered that he had heard this term from his father, but the impression was not very deep.

"What is this curse seal?" Choji, who didn't learn his lesson, suddenly asked another question.

And he said it out loud.

Shikamaru immediately looked like he had no desire to live: "Cing! Ci!"

"There is nothing to be said. This is just a means for the main Hyuga family to control the Hyuga branch family."

Neji didn't care about exposing the darkness of Hyuga.

He told all about the caged bird.

And in front of everyone, he actually untied the bandage on his forehead, revealing the caged bird curse seal on his forehead.

"From the moment the curse seal was carved, the people of the Hyuga branch family became puppets of religion. From the moment I was carved into the caged bird, my life... can only sacrifice my life to protect the eldest lady of the main family of the Hyuga clan."

Ningji suddenly smiled, and his smile was a little sad: "Even if Hinata is no longer that eldest lady, my fate has not changed, it just changed from protecting her to protecting her sister."

Ningji, who revealed the darkness of the Hyuga clan, received the dumbfounded expressions of Shikamaru and Choji as expected.

Naruto, Karin, and Shiro, the three of them had already known about the darkness of the Hyuga clan from Hinata's mouth.

Shikamaru and Choji really knew it for the first time.

"The Hyuga clan is a clan as big as the Uchiha clan!" Choji wrinkled his chubby face, his expression full of confusion: "How can they be like this?!"

Shikamaru couldn't help but interject: "Using such dark means to forcibly separate the main family and the branch family... Aren't those people in the main family afraid that the people in the branch family will kill them? There are many ways to kill people without revealing the intention to kill, right? For example, poisoning in advance, framing..."

Shikamaru didn't understand why the Hyuga clan did this?

There were originally no contradictions in a family, but by doing this, wouldn't it add an irreversible contradiction to the family out of thin air?

Perhaps this contradiction is suppressed because of the bird in the cage.

But what if the bird in the cage is solved one day?

Then the contradiction accumulated by the Hyuga clan for many years will become the biggest powder keg. Once it explodes, the entire Hyuga clan will be backfired, and neither the main family nor the branch family can escape.

"This is a very evil curse seal, this is also a very sad rule, and this is an extremely pedantic family."

The above sharp comments came from Bai who suddenly spoke: "Ningci-kun, do you think I'm right?!"

"Quite right." Ningci replied.

As long as it was Bai's question, he would always answer it patiently without any impatience.

"Ningci-kun, don't you want to sweep this evil curse seal into the trash can of history? Don't you want to completely remove that sad rule from the family rules of the Hyuga clan? Don't you want to completely transform this pedantic family and make it a little more normal?"

Bai asked a lot of questions in succession.

"It's useless." Neji laughed out loud as if he was mocking himself: "A man who almost died after encountering a ninja from another village; a man whose father died and who was also carved as a bird in a cage... is he worthy of breaking this unbreakable fate?"

"It's just... puff——"

Before Neji finished his sentence, he was suddenly punched in the face. The huge force made the skin on his left cheek ripple, and the whole person was knocked out by a punch.

Neji didn't see clearly who hit him.

He only felt a sharp pain in his face, and he was knocked several meters away by this punch.

When he covered his face and took a breath of cold air.

Then he saw clearly...

It turned out that the one who hit him was Uzumaki Naruto!

"You guy..."

Ningji's cheeks were visibly swollen.

He stared at Naruto with gritted teeth.

"You are a big idiot!" Naruto snorted, his face full of disappointment. He had been listening for so long, but Ningji didn't get angry, but he got angry instead.

Naruto gritted his teeth and said, "You are the number one genius in the ninja school! How can you be so negative? You keep talking about fate and destiny, which is so annoying! How can there be someone like you?"

What Naruto doesn't believe in the most is fate.

If he is a person who believes in fate and is willing to go with the flow in fate.

Then he can't be his father's son.

It's even more impossible for him to be the captain of the first team of the Whitebeard Pirates.

"Since you think the bird in the cage is wrong, since you think the Hyuga clan should not have the main family and branch family, since you think the clan is very pedantic, then you should change all this! If you think you can't do it alone, then find someone who shares the same ideals as you!"

Naruto's voice became louder and louder: "Even if you are engraved with the bird in the cage, the people who share the same ideals as you are not engraved with the bird in the cage! You can cooperate with them to fight against fate! There are so many ways, but you are willing to succumb to fate."

Naruto gritted his teeth: "How can you be the first genius of the ninja school like this? Your name is Hyuga Neji, right? Your courage is even worse than Hinata!"

"At least Hinata really wants to change all this about the Hyuga clan, but you dare not change it."

"Hinata even dares to sacrifice her life for this path, and you are afraid of a so-called bird in the cage!"

Naruto snatched the bird in the cage scroll from Hinata.

He tore the scroll into pieces in front of Neji.

The debris of the scroll fell to the ground.

"See! The caged bird curse seal that you regarded as a nightmare was torn apart by me so easily!"

Naruto said: "It is so vulnerable! As long as you find a way to resist, as long as you find like-minded people to resist together, you will succeed one day!"

"Even if you fail, there is nothing sad and nothing to be afraid of if you sacrifice your life."

"And!"

Naruto's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "You just said that this is an elder of the Hyuga clan who asked you to put a caged bird on Hinata? That guy... his name is Hyuga Daimong?!"

This has touched Naruto's reverse scale.

Hurting his family is something Naruto will never allow.

That guy named Hyuga Daimong...

has made Naruto extremely angry.

And it has aroused Naruto's murderous intent!

"You chose to give up on making Hinata a caged bird. Isn't this your resistance? You dared to resist this order, why don't you dare to resist a little more?"

Every word Naruto said.

All made Neci speechless.

"I can see that you want to resist in your heart." Naruto said: "I am going to do something next. If you want to join, then I will personally prove to you that the fate of your Hyuga clan can be easily broken!"

Do something?

Naruto's last sentence made everyone have different ideas.

Haku and Karin vaguely understood what Naruto wanted to do.

Because they all noticed the murderous intent that permeated Naruto.

Choji showed a confused expression.

Hinata was a little confused, not knowing what Naruto was referring to... What exactly was he going to do?

Neci widened his eyes in disbelief.

Shikamaru vaguely guessed it.

He looked around hurriedly, and after finding that there was no ninja frowning, he lowered his voice and said quickly: "Naruto, are you crazy? That's the elder of the Hyuga clan! The Hyuga clan, even I have heard of this name!"

"You..." Shikamaru said this, and he found that Naruto's eyes, in addition to being filled with murderous intent, were also very firm.

Shikamaru held back the extra words in his mouth and didn't say them out.

Because he already knew the decision Naruto had made.

And it was a decision that there was no way to persuade him back.

"You guy..." Shikamaru took a deep breath: "It is illegal to murder a fellow villager ninja! We have to find a way to do it quietly, and we must not let other ninjas find out. It is best to make a few more reliable plans just in case."

When he said this.

Shikamaru himself was stunned.

He wanted to slap himself in the face, why did he say such a thing?

The idea that just popped into his mind was not "can't do this", but "need to be cautious".

Shikamaru couldn't help but look at Bai for help.

He really hoped that Bai could persuade Naruto.

Let Naruto calm down a little.

"This is the decision of our captain of the first squad of the Whitebeard Pirates!" Bai smiled. He could naturally see what Shikamaru was thinking.

He said to Shikamaru: "Even Daddy would respect Naruto's decision in many cases!"

Shikamaru: "..."

"If the Hyuga clan leader is a big shot in the Hyuga clan, then he must be a jonin at least, right?" Bai thought: "It's not easy for us to kill him!"

"Especially if we can't make too much noise, otherwise it will be discovered by other ninjas, and the assassination may fail, which will be even more difficult."

For Bai... this behavior of the Hyuga clan elder also touched his reverse scale.

Bai couldn't accept that someone wanted to hurt his family.

Especially the "Caged Bird" curse mark was carved on his family.

Haku came from the mouths of Neji and Hinata.

I have long known the horror of a caged bird.

Xiang Lian also pondered: "Or we can choose to poison? I feel that the person who encouraged Neji to put a caged bird on Hinata is not just the Hyuga clan."

She said: "Maybe there are other Hyuga clan involved, and we cannot let go of any of those people. As long as they exist, Hinata will be in danger."

"Maybe we need to kill them all."

Phosphorus behaves even more extreme.

Three young pirates from the Whitebeard Pirates were discussing how to kill an elder of the Hyuga clan.

It was said so openly.

Not afraid of being heard at all.

It can be described as conspiring loudly.

"Ah? Ah??? Ah???" Hearing the three of them conspiring loudly, Dingci suddenly understood what Naruto meant by "doing something".

Choji was dumbfounded. He stuttered a little and said, "Naruto...Naruto, are we going to kill a Hyuga elder?"

"Gudong——"

Dingji swallowed secretly, feeling that today was too exciting.

"Hinata is my family!" Naruto said seriously: "That guy wants to harm my family. I absolutely cannot let him go. I have to get rid of him before he does it the second time!"

"Dingci, are you willing to assist me?" Naruto looked at Dingci: "It doesn't matter if you don't want to, after all..."

"No! I...I...I..."

Choji's face was full of confusion.

to be honest.

He was scared.

Because this is not a fight, this is a plot to kill someone!

However, Naruto was his friend.

And Choji felt that the guy named Hyuga Daizong seemed to be doing something wrong. Why would that person use a so-called curse seal to control the fate of a child?

"I..." Dingci murmured weakly: "I can...I can look out for you."

Naruto smiled.

Shikamaru:"……"

"Alas!" Shikamaru said in disbelief: "Meeting you, Uzumaki Naruto, is the greatest misfortune that I, Nara Shikamaru, have had for eight lifetimes. I have placed my future on you, don't let me down! Naruto!"

Naruto smiled brightly and said: "Don't worry! I am Naruto Uzumaki! The captain of the Whitebeard Pirates' First Division and the future Fifth Generation Hokage! I will definitely not let you down!"

Then, Naruto looked at Hinata: "Hinata, you are my family, I will never allow anyone to hurt you, absolutely not."

A blush appeared on Hinata's face. She was so confused by Naruto's words.

Steam is rising from my head.

In a daze.

Hinata lowered her head, poked each other with the index fingers of her two little hands, blushed and murmured: "Naruto...Naruto-kun, whatever Naruto-kun decides, I...I support 100%."

Her reaction made people wonder whether she heard clearly what Naruto was saying just now.

finally.

Everyone's eyes couldn't help but fall on Neji.

It can be seen that Neji's expression showed a bit of sluggishness.

There was even more astonishment in his eyes.

Because, Neji really didn't expect that someone would actually want to plot to assassinate an elder of their Hyuga clan.

Neji never expected that the aloof elders of the Hyuga clan would actually look like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered in front of this group of people.

"Ningji-kun." Bai smiled and said: "Your destiny was determined for you by people like Hyuga Daisong, right? Are you willing to work with us to do something that is very rebellious and unethical for you? Neji Jun?"

Ningji: "..."

At this moment, he suddenly felt that the fate of the Hyuga clan was very funny. It was so funny that even a timid fat man like Akimichi Choji dared to join the camp that murdered the Hyuga elders.

Except for their own members of the Hyuga clan, others have never put the so-called fate of the Hyuga clan in their eyes.

Neji couldn't help but touch the Caged Bird Curse Seal on his forehead.

He thought about his father's death.

I also thought about the sad future that I could see all the way to the end.

Look at the group of people in front of you.

Neji knew that among this group of peers, the youngest was one year younger than him and the oldest was one year older than him. Even they dare to do something treacherous and unethical.

Why don't you dare?

Because of the caged bird?

Or are you afraid of death?

Neji was looking into his heart, was he really afraid of death? If you were afraid of death, you wouldn't join the ninja school, right?

Not afraid of death.

What else are you afraid of?

"...Hyuuga Daisong is the most virtuous and respected elder of our Hyuga clan. He is 82 years old this year. He used to be a Jonin of the Hyuga clan, but now he is very old and his strength should not be as powerful as when he was young. "

Neji said: "But... there are two elite chuunin around him all year round to protect him. If you want to kill him, you must first lure those two chuunin away."

"And..." Neci paused: "His residence is right next to the Hyuga Clan. If you attack in a place like that, a group of ninjas will be attracted in less than a minute."

"Huh!" After saying these words, he exhaled heavily.

"Then add me!"

Neji smiled casually: "I want to use my miserable life to see if the fate of separated families is really inescapable."

Hinata Neji.

joined.

Snapped!

Snapped!

Snapped!

However, at this moment, a sudden burst of applause startled this group of brats whose average age was no more than ten years old, but who were plotting to kill a Hyuga elder here.

Shikamaru's heart almost jumped out of his throat in fear.

As a result, he quickly turned his head to look.

Shikamaru was stunned.

"...Is that you?" He discovered that the person clapping his hands was actually Naruto's shark-faced family member!

Kisame clapped his hands and walked out of the shadows at the corner of the alley.

"Naruto, you still need to practice your Haki of seeing and hearing colors! I deliberately hide my aura so that you can't sense my presence. Your seeing and hearing colors are far behind compared to dad's!"

Kisame grinned, showing his fangs, and his eyes were bloodshot, and continued: "Kids, you are sneaking here to discuss such an interesting action..."

"Can you add some of my dried persimmon Kisame?"

Kisame's killing intent seemed to thicken the air: "I want to carve an evil curse mark on my family..."

"The old guy from the Hyuga clan is really brave!"
