Chapter 62: A Bird in a Cage, Nothing More Than That
Hiruzen, who was observing the crystal ball in his office, soon got the news.
When Hiruzen heard that Danzo had sent someone to take away the Hyuga clan's chief elder, he immediately knew what was going on because he was familiar with Danzo's style of doing things.
The other party is going to attack the Hyuga clan.
According to his previous temperament, he would definitely question the other party what he was going to do.
But now...
He just nodded, said "I understand", and sent the person away.
Although the Hyuga clan is obedient, the main family has never been willing to communicate with the village.
Especially the great elder Munakata, who always talks about the glory of the Hyuga clan.
He acted as if the sky was so big and Hyuga was the greatest.
It would be better to let him suffer a little.
When the time comes, send someone to inform Danzo and spare that guy's life, which will be worthy of the Hyuga clan's contribution over the years.
Having decided what to do next, Hiruzen continued to stare at the scenery in the crystal ball.
There was also a blush on her face.
......
"That's it?"
Through Yamanaka Zen, Danzo successfully obtained the caged bird technique.
He handed the technique to Beiluohu who was standing beside him. The other party just took a quick glance and understood the secret.
In his opinion, this technique was full of loopholes and completely disregarded the life and death of the person being marked.
"I wonder what kind of changes Danzo-sama would like to make to this curse seal?"
With confidence, Hiruko began to ask Danzo for his opinion.
"As long as you can protect the white eye from leaking out, it's fine, and try to choose a method with fewer side effects."
After listening to Danzo's request, Hiruhu nodded.
If that were all, the job wouldn't be difficult.
"Do you want me to keep the function of controlling life and death? In this way, the Hyuga clan will be in your hands."
good boy.
If your style of doing things were to happen in your previous life, I would have made you my deputy.
After hesitating for a while, Danzo finally rejected his proposal.
What if Uchiha Madara causes trouble at that time and I accidentally fall into his illusion.
That would mean the end of the Hyuga clan.
Uchiha Madara's eye power is no joke.
【Danzo-sama is such a good man. 】
When he heard Danzo's refusal, Hiruko gave Danzo a good guy card in his heart.
"I see. I'll be able to give you the latest version in about three days."
......
After leaving Danzo and returning to his home, Shimizu also received the news that the great elder had been asked to leave.
He marveled at the speed at which Danzo's men moved.
Qingshui, who was worried about not being able to find an excuse to call everyone to a meeting, discovered that this was a ready-made reason.
He sent someone to deliver a message to the remaining elders of the clan, asking them to gather at his house in the evening to discuss the matter of the great elder.
At the same time, he also instructed his loyal guards to take over the defense of the Hyuga clan.
If you encounter any obstruction, just say it is to guard against Danzo.
But if Danzo really comes, just pretend you didn't see him and let him in.
At the same time, he also sent someone to call Hiashi and Hizashi over.
Soon, both brothers appeared in front of Qingshui.
"Lord Patriarch."
Hizashi bowed respectfully towards Shimizu.
He looked at his youngest son with a complicated expression, feeling the other party's alienation towards him.
Qingshui resisted the urge to hug the other person.
Rizu on the side also had a complicated expression.
"Hey, you two brothers, take a seat."
Sighing, Shimizu pointed to the Zabutan nearby.
Motion for them to sit down.
"There will be a clan meeting tonight, you two brothers will follow behind me."
"After tonight, there will no longer be a distinction between the main family and the branch family, and you two brothers can be together without any barriers."
After thinking about it, Qingshui gave them the bottom line so that they could be mentally prepared in advance.
"what?"
Rizu was a little stunned by the news.
Hizashi standing by also had a puzzled look on his face.
"Could it be that the Great Elder..."
They had also heard about the Great Elder's affairs, and combined with their father's words, they both reacted quickly.
The fact that the Great Elder was taken away was probably related to my father.
Hizashi's originally tense face relaxed a little.
As he grew older, he gradually understood his father and brother.
He had already prepared himself to obey this fate.
Unexpectedly...
My father actually dared to resist the elders of the clan...
"Father, father..."
I heard Hizashi shout out a call that I hadn't heard in many years.
Qingshui's eyes felt sore.
I almost cried.
Even Hiashi was a little dazed.
Everything depends on this meeting tonight.
......
As night falls.
The elders of the Hyuga clan's main family arrived as expected.
As soon as they entered the house, they saw the two brothers, Hiashi and Hiashi, standing behind Shimizu.
Frowning, the second elder spoke with some dissatisfaction.
"Isn't it said that tonight is the main family meeting? Why is there a branch family member here? Come on, get him out."
The second elder naturally knew that the boy in front of him was Qingshui's son, but he had no intention of giving him face.
In his opinion, even if he was his own son, once he became a branch family, he would not be qualified to set foot on the territory of the main family.
This has been the Hyuga clan's system since ancient times.
However, the tribesmen around him had already been replaced by Qingshui and became his confidants.
Therefore, everyone turned a deaf ear to the Second Elder's shouting.
Sensing that something was wrong with the atmosphere, the Third Elder hurriedly stopped the Second Elder.
He is not a fool like the Second Elder.
Even before the meeting, he had become wary after hearing that Qingshui's people had taken over the tribe's defense.
Therefore, he specially brought several of his trusted aides to the meeting.
These confidants are all strong jonin, and he is confident that he will not be ambushed by Shimizu.
"Qingshui, the Second Elder has a quick temper, don't argue with him."
The four elders on the side also stepped forward to smooth things over.
"Humph."
Seeing that the other two elders were trying to stop him, the second elder stopped attacking.
Instead, he snorted coldly, strode to his seat and sat down.
Qingshui didn't say a word the whole time, just watched their performance with a cold face.
Qingshui remained silent until all the elders were seated.
Sure enough, something was wrong.
In the past, Qingshui would have stood up and saluted these people.
Seeing Qingshui still sitting there steadily, the third elder became more and more nervous.
"Come on, why are you calling me to a meeting so late at night instead of trying to find a way to help the Great Elder?"
Only the second elder still had that carefree look on his face.
I didn't notice the weird atmosphere at all.
"Now that all the elders are here, let me say a few words."
Forcing a smile towards the second elder, Qingshui spoke.
"For the future of the Hyuga clan, I have decided to abolish the branch family system."
