Chapter 285: Hinata's Retaliation
There were more than twenty people, all of them from the branch family, and there were not many superior Ninja. This kind of lineup was indeed a little thin compared to the entire Hyuga family.
But Hoheto felt that these people were enough.
"We are not going to destroy the Hyuga family. We will not be enemies with everyone at the same time. We are just going to attack clansmen's eldest daughter."
Hoheto looked at these people coldly. For the first time, he told everyone what his target was.
He only needed to look at the uneasy expressions on these people's faces to immediately understand what these people were thinking.
Not to mention them, even Hoheto himself was a little anxious and agitated at this time.
As a branch family, bringing a small group of people to attack clansmen, this had never appeared in the entire history of Hyuga's clan.
Even the most insane person had never done this.
Hoheto was definitely the first crazy person to do this.
"Hoheto, how are we going to get rid of the bird mark in the cage after this is done? Why do we have to deal with Hinata? Moreover, if we just turn from clansmen's cage to your cage bird, then our actions are meaningless."
A Hyuga looked up in confusion.
Hoheto glanced at him. "Senior Kuanren, I know what you are worried about. In fact, I can't give you an answer that will make you absolutely convinced... Caged Bird Curse has absolute control over the life and death of the people from the branch family. There is no promise that can surpass a one-sided life and death threat."
"Right now, all of you are pitiful people that I secretly controlled with Caged Bird Curse, but this is also the opportunity to bring new life to the entire Hyuga family... The new life that I am talking about is definitely not just to remove Caged Bird Curse from the branch family!"
A hint of fanaticism appeared on Hoheto's face. "My real goal is another thing... The eyes that surpass Byakugan in a higher stage!"
This time, all of the Hyuga clansmen under control were stunned. They suddenly raised their heads, looking with disbelief.
There were finally some fluctuations in those numb eyes.
"Surpass Byakugan's eyes? And it has something to do with Hinata?" "Our Hyuga clan also has Byakugan who can advance?"
"That's right. Just like Uchiha's Sharingan, Byakugan also have a higher level! Our clan's bloodline is as ancient as Uchiha's, and we are both Hitomi's blood inheritance. There is no reason for us to be inferior to them!"
Hoheto's eyes were blazing: "Senior, as a branch family member, you have not gained the absolute trust of the clan, and they did not tell you about the advanced Byakugan in the eye organization."
"Someone in the Eye Organization advanced Byakugan? Which one of our clansmen?" Kuanren's expression changed, and he cried out in shock.
How is this possible? The rules and practices of Hyuga's clan are so rigid and conservative, and clansmen's control of the branch family is extremely strict... How could someone secretly advanced Byakugan, and even join the eye organization behind his family?
Hoheto sneered, "Of course, when Uchiha Setsuna was in Hozuki City, he clearly obtained Mangekyou Sharingan, but he was defeated by someone. The person who defeated him displayed the physical skills of our Hyuga clan!"
Someone immediately questioned, "However, I remember that the ninjas who participated in the Hozuki City mission were a few young people who were less than 20 years old. How could they leak the details of the mission to you?"
"It was Lord Hizashi who told me." Hoheto said.
Everyone was confused.
How did the family head of the branch family get involved?
Lord Hizashi had always known that the eyes that surpassed Byakugan were real and even told Hoheto?
Could it be that... the real mastermind behind this operation was Lord Hizashi?
Many people immediately closed their mouths, their faces cloudy and uncertain.
But when they thought that the family head of the branch family was on their side, perhaps they had already arranged something, their mood immediately became much calmer.
"Can you guarantee that this is true? If it is false, not only will we die, but the entire branch family will also be taken care of by clansmen.
It will even lead to the decline of the entire Hyuga family. "
"It's true. Otherwise, why would I have schemed so much? I clearly already obtained a sealing scroll that can control Caged Bird Curse."
Hoheto patted the huge scroll on his back.
Generally speaking, only the big shots would dare to hang a super-large scroll on his back. For example, Jiraiya, Sage Naruto, and so on.
Of course, Hoheto was not a big shot, but he felt that he would soon become a big shot.
Everything was bet on this operation.
"The target is just a child like Hinata. It's very simple to suddenly make a move."
Hoheto thought in secret.
Although this was a bit unfair to Hinata, this little girl, he couldn't care about so much now.
Hinata's eyes were something that even the two mysterious distant relatives would cry out for. In terms of potential, they were definitely extraordinary!
"As long as I can dig out Hinata's eyes and transplant them into my eyes, then I have a high chance of obtaining a higher level Byakugan!"
Hoheto gritted his teeth and gave the order, leading the team into action.
One of his hands was placed behind his back on the scroll.
Not only was he wary of clansmen after the battle, he was also wary of these branch family members that he controlled.
Hoheto was also just a branch family member. He would not engrave the bird mark in the cage, so he could only use this scroll to indirectly control it.
If the scroll was lost, he would be finished. Who knew if these people would stab him in the back?
Hoheto would not underestimate these people who had received strict and old-fashioned education since they were young. In these people's minds, there might be people who took him down to show his loyalty to clansmen.
Hoheto would not give this kind of person a chance. He would firmly control the words and actions of these people.
As dusk fell, the sun gradually set.
Hoheto glanced in the direction of Konoha's forest.
The entire Konoha, everyone's attention was focused there. Even experts like Yondaime and Yuuji were waiting for the results of the exam.
Although it was not night time, this was already the best time to make a move.
Twenty or so people scattered and moved forward, constantly moving towards the core region of Hyuga's territory.
Once Hoheto made the move, they would immediately explode and launch an attack.
They passed through the houses.
"This is the place, Hiashi's home..."
A cold light flashed in Hoheto's eyes.
Hinata was his first target.
If he couldn't, he would dig out Hanabi's eyes!
Although Hanabi was less than a year old, the eyeball of a baby was as big as the eyeball of an adult, so it should be able to be used.
If the eyes of the elder sister Hinata were so pure, then the eyes of the younger sister Hanabi were not much different.
If there was no chance to make a move, then Hoheto had only one choice... Hyuga Hiashi!
Hiashi's wife was just a branch family, so it was meaningless to dig her eyes out.
Since Hiashi was able to give birth to a daughter like Hinata, the purity of his eyes must be very high.
"Eh, Hoheto, why are you here?"
Just as Hoheto was walking as if nothing had happened, a passing clansman called out.
Hoheto looked calm: "It's Tokuma... During the Chunin exam, I was worried that spies from other villages would make trouble, so I patrolled more, just in case."
"Is that so? As expected of Hoheto, you are so thoughtful... Then I will join you too."
Tokuma praised.
He and Hoheto were both stars with great foresight. Although they were far from Yuuji and the others of the same age, they were considered elites in Hyuga's clan.
Tokuma did not have any doubts, especially after confirming that the Hoheto in front of him was not transformed by someone else using the Transformation Spell, he was even more relieved.
He never thought that the people from the branch family would start a rebellion against clansmen's people.
"What is the scroll behind you?"
"How troublesome. Tokuma, why did you come up at this time?"
Hoheto had an impatient look on his face as he formed a seal with his hands. The scroll behind him opened up, revealing a large number of complex lines.
These lines gathered together, forming a swastika symbol.
"This is Caged Bird Curse's imprint? Hoheto, you are..." Tokuma did not react.
In the next moment, the bird mark on his forehead was activated.
Hoheto directly controlled him and knocked him out before he could make a sound.
Kuanren appeared and carried him away without saying a word.
"Hasn't Hinata returned yet?" Hoheto looked at the sky and frowned.
The more they delayed, the greater the possibility of problems.
"It should be soon. School has already ended. Lord Hinata is very well-behaved and polite. She will be home on time." Kuanen lowered his head.
Hoheto frowned and glared at him impatiently, but he did not say anything.
It was most suitable for them to attack in the clan grounds. There would not be Anbu, Root, and the guards coming in.
Hoheto only needed to face the guards of the clan, but these guards would not be wary of them.
Finally, Hoheto saw his target.
A blonde was pulling Hinata over.
"That is... Yondaime's son? How could Nine-tailed Jinchuriki be together with Hyuga's big sister?" Hoheto opened Byakugan and found that Anbu, who was guarding Naruto, was only standing on a big tree in the distance to observe. Only then did he let out a sigh of relief.
Naruto pulled Hinata's little hand and walked over with a cool face.
Along the way, there were occasionally Hyuga clansmen who saw it, and their expressions were strange.
Hinata lowered her head in embarrassment, and her little face looked red.
But Naruto didn't pay attention to this, he received too many stares.
Entering Hyuga's clan grounds, it did not matter if everyone looked at him weird.
"This is your home? It's really luxurious." Naruto looked at Hinata's super luxurious villa from afar and said thoughtfully. He let go of Hinata's small hand.
"Well, do you want to go in and rest? Father should..."
"No need. How can I be tired with such a small road? Do you underestimate me?"
Naruto frowned and was somewhat dissatisfied.
What? He was so powerful, even more capable than Sasuke, but in Hinata's eyes, this was all?
Looking down on him?
I am the son of the Hokage, and I also have a mysterious Sensei!
Naruto's self-esteem exploded.
"... Oh! " Hinata was inexplicably disappointed - did she say something wrong? She just wanted to invite Naruto to rest...
Naruto put his hands in his pockets and left without hesitation.
It's just sending a little girl home. Humph, it is not worth a second more.
My throat is dry, see how I beat you down in the Actual Combat Lesson!
Hinata stood at the door for a while and watched Naruto disappear into the corner in the distance. She pouted and was about to enter the house.
"Do it!!"
Hoheto shouted in a low voice.
He suddenly opened the scroll and activated the bird mark in the cage.
The ninjas who were controlled by him and scattered around felt the burning sensation coming from their foreheads and immediately attacked.
They attacked quickly.
Hoheto rushed over and stretched out a pair of fingers, aiming straight at Hinata's eyes.
Hinata could not react in time.
Hoheto was overjoyed. It seemed that he was about to succeed.
Swish!
Suddenly, a terrifying burning sensation erupted from his forehead as well.
"This is... the bird mark in the cage ? ! Damn Hiashi!!"
The sudden activation caused Hoheto to cry out and fall to the ground, clutching his forehead as he wailed in pain.
The other branch families who had attacked were also at a loss. They opened their mouths to say something, but in the end, they chose to attack.
"Damn it, why is it like this..." Hoheto wailed.
Kuanren slowly walked out and said lightly, "I'm sorry, Hoheto. I don't want to either, but for the sake of the family..."
"Idiot, you don't know anything. Do you think that the thing that bound you is the caged bird in your brain? Your current actions have already proven that you are the most qualified' caged bird '. You have even lost the courage to open the cage and explore the outside world!" Hoheto gritted his teeth.
Kuanren was stunned and remained silent. He turned to be on guard against the others.
"So your target is Hinata? What's the point of laying your hands on this useless eldest daughter of mine?"
Hiashi walked out.
A few family guards also rushed over at the first possible moment, fighting against the branch family members who were rushing over.
In all directions, there were also Hyuga family members who had heard the commotion and also moved.
Hiashi cast a series of spells. After activating Caged Bird Curse, those fellows who followed Hoheto fell to the ground one after another with miserable screams and were controlled.
From the looks of it, this rebellion was about to end at the beginning.
In front of clansmen, who had the bird mark in the cage, all the rebellions were meaningless.
"Hoheto, the family has treated you well. Why did you encourage these innocent clansmen to start a rebellion? Is it related to the two blind mysterious people back then? You are indeed involved with them!" Hiashi was furious and immediately threw all the blame on Hoheto.
In fact, Hiashi was also nervous. He didn't even know if the guards around him had participated in the rebellion, because these people were also part of the branch family.
"Humph, humph, it's a pity, Lord Clan Leader. It's too late for you to know now. For someone like you, even if you understand the reason why I'm doing this, you probably won't use clansmen as an experiment, right? That kind of method will eventually be sacrificed by the branch family to become clansmen's material." Hoheto struggled on the ground, struggling to withstand Hiashi's restraint.
Hiashi narrowed his eyes.
Experiment? Would clansmen use his branch family as material?
He reached out and protected the frightened Hinata behind him, thinking hard.
At the same time, he supported Caged Bird Curse with one hand and walked towards Hoheto, reaching out with the other hand to slap down.
First, cripple Hoheto's body, then capture him and interrogate him. We must get a result... Moreover, the specific result should not be known to other clansmen people.
Moreover, he couldn't let more members of the branch family know that all of the members of the branch family had to be screened once!
The moment Hiashi used a soft fist to hit Hoheto with a palm strike.
Hoheto suddenly raised his head, his expression twisted.
He activated the sealing scroll, and suddenly pulled it open. Countless lines spread out, and he began to control the bird mark in his brain bag.
It formed a short confrontation and interference with Hiashi's casting, and he gained temporary freedom. Although the price was very high, it was very likely to cause great damage to his brain.
Hoheto endured the pain of his head almost exploding, and roared. Under close proximity, he resisted Hiashi's soft fist with his flesh and blood, taking the risk of his brain and body being completely scrapped, and seized this gap.
Both of their attacks landed on each other at the same time.
Hoheto spat out a mouthful of blood. It was as if his entire body was about to be shattered.
But he had obtained what he wanted.
A pair of hands stained with thick blood... clansmen Byakugan!!
