LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 12
Bang!
Sarutobi’s face was filled with anger, and he immediately slapped the table in front of him.
The news of the Hyuga clan naturally reached Sarutobi.
The sudden change of heart of Hyuga Hizashi and the ambiguous attitude of Hyuga Hiashi made the original preparation of the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen fall through.
Originally, as long as the body of Hyuga Hizashi was used, the anger of the envoys of the Hidden Cloud Village could be appeased in exchange for peace.
But now, the betrayal of the Hyuga clan made it difficult to continue.
As the Third Hokage, he couldn’t force the Hyuga clan to sacrifice their members?
If so, such a big clan, which had fought for Konoha for a long time, would completely lose their support.
This was equivalent to personally sending a powerful force to Danzo.
Sarutobi would never do this.
That was why the Hyuga issue became more and more difficult.
No more Hyuga people can be sacrificed, so the remaining cost can only be borne by Sarutobi Hiruzen himself.
This is completely inconsistent with his plan.
Originally, as long as Hyuga made sacrifices, the crisis of Kumogakure could be easily overcome without doing anything.
But now…
The betrayal of the Hyuga clan means that it is impossible to continue like this!
So…
What exactly caused the betrayal of the Hyuga clan?
Originally, he had guided them enough that day. Both Hyuga Hiashi and Hyuga Hizashi had made the decision to die for the village.
But how long has it been?
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked very ugly.
What happened?
He frowned.
But even if he wanted to investigate, he was a little powerless.
Is it Danzo?
Sarutobi Hiruzen’s first suspect was Danzo, but then he shook his head.
No!
It shouldn’t be!
With Danzo’s means, he shouldn’t be able to do this.
Who else could it be? Uchiha…
Sarutobi narrowed his eyes gradually, and his eyes became deeper.
However, since the Hyuga clan has already turned against them, the plan facing Kumogakure can only change!
And at this moment, it is at the Root.
When Danzo heard the news of Hyuga’s betrayal, he laughed immediately.
“Hey, what Hyuga originally agreed to do is not counted this time. Hyuga Hizashi doesn’t want to die. Sarutobi, what else can you do this time?”
There was a smile in his eyes, as if he had seen the scene where Sarutobi resigned because of this.
……
Hyuga clan.
Hyuga Hizashi and Hyuga Hiashi sat opposite each other.
“Are you saying that all these words of yours were taught to you by Uzumaki Naruto?”
Hyuga Hiashi showed an unbelievable look in his eyes.
After all, a child who is only three years old can see through so much, prevent Hizashi Hizashi’s death, and explain the reason clearly. How difficult is it?
If it were Hizashi himself, he would not be sure that he could convince Hizashi, let alone others.
But the fact happened.
Hizashi nodded.
“Brother, can I still joke about this kind of thing?”
“But the person you are talking about is more like a joke than a joke.”
A three-year-old child with a wisdom close to that of a demon is indeed a bit outrageous.
Hizashi pondered for a while and said:
“I have to go see him.”
Although what Hizashi said was true, Hizashi still wanted to see what this “demon fox” boy who had been rumored in the village looked like.
Hizashi Hizashi stood up and said to Hizashi Hizashi:
“You wait here, I’ll go see him!”
Not long after, Hizashi Hizashi arrived at Naruto’s door and knocked on it.
After opening it, Naruto glanced at him and said:
“Is the Hyuga clan leader so polite in his own home?”
Hiashi didn’t answer, but stared at Naruto without blinking.
Under the stare of such a person, if it were an ordinary person, he would have been timid and would have looked away.
But Naruto didn’t.
He looked at Hyuga Hiashi, without any fluctuation in his eyes.
In the end, it was Hyuga Hiashi who looked away first.
And said:
“I am beginning to believe what Hiashi said now.”
“You are indeed extraordinary!”
Naruto shrugged and didn’t comment on it.
“Hyuga clan leader came to see me specially, not just to say a few nonsense, right? Your ability to flatter people is really not very good.”
Hiashi didn’t take this to heart, turned into the house and sat down.
Naruto also sat opposite him.
He suddenly asked:
“What do you think about the current situation in Hyuga?”
“Open your eyes and watch.”
MingThe man said:
“Why, you two brothers don’t want to die, can the Third Hokage force you to die? Now, among the five major ninja villages in the ninja world, except for the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Leaf Village, the other three villages should be willing to accept your Hyuga clan.”
“Now it’s not you who should worry about it, but the Third Hokage. How to give a reasonable explanation to the Hidden Cloud Village and not let you down.”
After hearing this, Hyuga Hiashi suddenly felt that his complicated thoughts were clear at once, as if he had been enlightened.
Even his eyes were brighter.
He slapped his thigh and said:
“Yes! Now it’s not us who should worry!”
“Next, we don’t even have to do anything, just wait quietly, waiting for the third generation to deal with this matter.”
Hinata Hiashi thought:
“At the same time, we can also see whether the third generation has a way to get through this matter safely!”
“If it gets through…”
A cold flash suddenly flashed in his eyes.
If it can get through safely, but they didn’t stop the sacrifice of the Hyuga clan that day. Then…
In the future, the support for the village and the attitude towards the third generation Hokage must change!
And at the moment when Hyuga Hiashi was thinking in his heart.
The voice of the system suddenly rang in Naruto’s ears.
[Ding, the host changed the attitude of the Hyuga clan leader and retaliated against the third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen. You get a reward of chakra +30 and constitution +15! 】
Oh?
The reward is coming again?
Naruto’s eyes showed a slight surprise.
After receiving the reward, Naruto clearly felt that his body had changed.
He called up the system panel.
[God-level Blackening System]
Host: Uzumaki Naruto
Chakra: 153 (Chunnin)
Physique: 92 (Chunnin)
Ninjutsu: Rasengan (A-level), Ruby Rasengan (S-level), Multiple Shadow Clones (A-level), Flying Thunder God (S-level)
Blackening progress: 9% (after the progress reaches 10%, you will get an additional reward)
Physique has actually been raised to the level of Chunin.
No wonder he clearly felt that his body was different.
……
“No one has come back?”
“No!”
“Three people! Three Jonin!”
At this moment.
They are in the Hidden Cloud Village.
The messenger looked at the person who came to report the news, and his face suddenly became gloomy.
“They all died in Konoha!”
He was extremely angry.
“Konoha must give us an explanation for this matter!”
“No matter what, we can’t let it go like this!”
“Let’s go to Konoha!”
The Cloud Village envoy was extremely angry after hearing the news.
He was angry about not getting the Byakugan and losing people.
After all, three jonins were very distressing even for the Cloud Village.
In the afternoon, the Cloud Village ninjas arrived in Konoha.
As the third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen naturally met with the Cloud Village envoy in person and expressed his importance.
In the Hokage’s office.
“Welcome everyone, you are here to represent the Hidden Cloud Village and sign an alliance with Konoha.”
Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a smile:
“Peace is what we are all pursuing. This time, peace can only be achieved with the efforts of both sides.”
However, as Sarutobi Hiruzen finished speaking, the Hidden Cloud Village envoy immediately sneered.
He said:
“Lord Hokage wants peace, but some people in Konoha don’t think so?”
Sarutobi Hiruzen’s heart sank, thinking that he had come after all.
The Hidden Cloud Village envoy came with great momentum, and this time he came here to call for punishment.
He sighed in his heart.
He asked knowingly:
“I don’t know what the messenger said?”
“What?!”
The messenger of the Hidden Cloud Village suddenly shouted:
“Hokage, why do you pretend to be confused when you know the truth? My Hidden Cloud Village previously sent three people to Konoha to discuss with the Hokage first, but there is no news about the three people until today. They disappeared in Konoha!”
“Hokage, won’t you give an explanation for this matter?”
Sarutobi Hiruzen showed a surprised look and said:
“There is such a thing?”
“Messenger, please rest assured. I will let someone quickly investigate this matter and give the messenger an explanation!”
“The people of the Hidden Cloud Village must not disappear in such an unclear way!”
If you fool around like this, the messenger of the Hidden Cloud Village will naturally not believe it.
He is sure that the people disappeared in Konoha.
Of course, even if it is not, it must be!
Otherwise, how can we be more logical and ask for some compensation?What about it?
“Hokage-sama, you are a smart man. I won’t hide many things from you. These three people are very much loved by our Raikage-sama. Raikage-sama is willing to start a war with anyone for them! And, at all costs!”
“Please think about it carefully, Hokage-sama!”
“I know.”
Sarutobi said:
“But, things are indeed a bit strange. I have to check it carefully before I know it.”
“Then, we will wait for news from Hokage-sama.”
Sarutobi asked:
“What about the alliance?”
The messenger sneered:
“This matter is not clear. People from my Cloud Village died inexplicably? Can we still form an alliance? Is Hokage-sama joking?”
“I know!”
“We will stay for a few days. I hope that Hokage-sama can think clearly before leaving.”
The messenger from Cloud Village left the Hokage’s office.
After they left, Sarutobi Hiruzen’s eyes suddenly turned cold.
This envoy of the Hidden Cloud Village was so arrogant and domineering in front of him, and he didn’t take him, the Hokage, seriously at all!
Even when he repeatedly gave in, he was still aggressive!
Too much bullying!
Anger surged in Sarutobi’s eyes.
However, this anger was not directed at the envoy of the Hidden Cloud Village.
But at Hyuga.
If Hyuga had not turned against him and had sacrificed himself and let Hyuga Hizashi die according to the original agreement, how could this happen?
How could he, the Third Hokage, have to endure such anger? ? ?
In the final analysis, the reason why things are like this now is because of the Hyuga clan!
If Hyuga Hiashi hadn’t killed the people of the Hidden Cloud Village, how could it have become so difficult!
Damn it!
Now looking at the envoy of the Hidden Cloud Village like this, he should not leave without giving enough compensation!
Where will the compensation come from?
He had a gloomy face and decided to discuss it with Hyuga again.
At the very least, Hyuga had to pay some money. He could not just leave it alone like this!
……
In the Hyuga clan.
After listening to Naruto’s words, Hyuga Hiashi looked at Naruto with more satisfaction.
Then, he suddenly said:
“I heard from Neji that you want to be the son-in-law of my Hyuga family?”
“It just so happens that you and Hinata are about the same age, so it’s a good fit…”
“Stop!”
Naruto stretched out his hand and stopped Hyuga Hiashi from saying anything else.
“What?”
Seeing Naruto like this, Hyuga Hiashi’s face suddenly changed. He said:
“Do you think Hinata is not worthy of you?”
Pah!
Naruto slapped his forehead.
Although the little girl from the Hyuga family is indeed quite cute.
However, she is too young.
Besides, even in his previous life, he was used to being free.
No matter whether it was the fairies of the righteous path or the saints of the evil path, they could not restrain him.
Of course.
There was no woman he could not get if he liked her.
He would rob her and use any means to get her.
He had never been a decent person, which was why he was called a demon.
But now.
He was too small and powerless.
“Instead of choosing a husband for your daughter in advance, you should think about how to deal with our third generation when he comes to you.”
Hearing this, Hyuga Hiashi’s eyes widened a little.
Asked:
“Will the third generation Hokage come again?”
Naruto raised a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth.
“You don’t think that if the sacrifices agreed upon by your Hyuga clan suddenly turn against you, he will let you go for nothing, right?”
Hyuga Hiashi’s eyes suddenly turned cold.
“He still wants to pressure us and force us to give an explanation to the Hidden Cloud Village?!”
“That may not be the case, but if you want nothing to happen, it will definitely not work. He will not oppress you, but it is very likely that he will ask you to pay some money and give some financial support.”
“You, Hyuga Hiashi, killed someone and paid some money to settle the matter. He, the Third Hokage, will mediate and stop. Not only will he help you solve the problem, but he can also give an explanation to the Hidden Cloud Village. He has not paid anything yet, isn’t it great?”
After hearing this, Hyuga Hiashi suddenly slapped his palm on the table and said angrily:
“Don’t even think about it!”
“He plotted against the Hyuga clan and almost let Hiashi die in vain. Now he wants our clan to pay money to help him compensate the Hidden Cloud Village!”
“It’s not us who want to negotiate peace!”
He was very angry.
And Naruto was on the side, drinking tea slowly and not speaking.
Just then.
Suddenly someone came to report.
“Master clan leader, the third generation master is here to discuss something with you!”
Hinata Hiashi’s eyes froze for a moment.Naruto’s smile widened.
