Chapter 222

The two of them were very happy.

Just as Chiyu was watching Kushina Uzumaki scolding Kakashi, there was a knock on the door.

Chiyu got up to open the door, and Kushina Uzumaki saw someone coming and temporarily stopped teaching.

Kakashi breathed a sigh of relief and was saved.

Chiyu opened the door and found that it was Hizashi Hizashi, and there was a cute Hizashi Neji in her arms.

"Ah, it's little Neji!"

Kushina Uzumaki was very happy to see Neji Hizashi, and immediately teased Neji Hizashi in Hizashi's arms.

Neji Hizashi was teased by Kushina Uzumaki and kept laughing.

"Kushina, stop standing at the door. Let the head of the Hizashi family come in. Kakashi, go and pour a cup of tea for the head of the Hizashi family."

Uzumaki Kushina hurriedly made way for Hizashi Hizashi to come in.

Hizashi Hizashi smiled and said, "Excuse me, a little gift is not a sign of respect."

Hizashi Hizashi handed the gift in his hand to Chiyu.

Chiyu said politely, "It's great that you can come to visit, head of the Hizashi family. What gift do you bring?"

Hizashi Hizashi said as a matter of course, "Of course it is necessary. After all, this is the first time that Neji has come to visit his master, so etiquette is naturally required."

After accepting the gift, Chiyu thanked him and said, "Thank you, come in and sit down quickly, head of the Hizashi family."

Kakashi went to make tea, and his eyes unconsciously looked at Neji Hizashi in Hizashi Hizashi's arms.

Because Uzumaki Kushina mentioned that Chiyu would soon accept another disciple, a child of the Hyuga clan.

It seems that this child is it.

But... this is too small.

Hizashi Hizashi said to Uzumaki Kushina: "Kushina, can you hold Neji for a while? I want to have a good chat with Chiba."

"Of course, I'd love to!"

Uzumaki Kushina couldn't wait to hold Neji Hizashi. In Kushina's eyes, such a small Neji Hizashi was really fun.

Uzumaki Kushina picked up Neji Hizashi, and Chiba took Hizashi Hizashi to sit down.

Kakashi brought two cups of tea, handed one to Chiba, and then handed one to Hizashi Hizashi: "Please have some tea, Mr. Hizashi."

Hizashi Hizashi took the cup and said with a smile: "Thank you, Kakashi."

Chiba and Hizashi Hizashi took a sip of tea at the same time.

Hinata Hizashi put down the teacup and said: "Chiyu, Neji is still young now, so when Neji is three years old and can practice, we will formally hold the apprenticeship ceremony."

Chiyu said indifferently: "I am not interested in these red tapes. Since the head of the Hizashi family agrees that Neji can become my disciple, then the master-disciple relationship is already established, and there is no need for any apprenticeship ceremony."

Hinata Hizashi was completely relieved when he heard what Chiyu said.

Hyuga Hizashi sighed, "Now that Neji has a master like Chiba, I don't need to worry about him too much in the future."

Chiba raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is the worry that the head of the Hizashi family mentioned after Neji was engraved with the 'bird in a cage'?"

Hyuga Hizashi was surprised, "Chiba, you know about the bird in a cage?"

But Hyuga Hizashi figured it out immediately, "That's right, the whole Konoha knows about the division between the main family and the branch family of the Hyuga clan, and it's normal for you, Chiba, to know about the bird in a cage."

After all, it is not glorious to use the curse seal of the bird in a cage to control their own clansmen, so the Hyuga clan kept silent about it.

But with Chiba's status, it is still easy to know.

After all, this matter has a long history, and there is no airtight wall in this world.

Hinata Hizashi sighed, "Yes, this is Neji's fate, there is no way to escape it, and it is me as a father who has dragged Neji down, alas..."

Now Chiba is his son's master, he is one of them, so there is no need to say some false and nice words.

Although Chiba knew about the caged bird, Uzumaki Kushina didn't know. Uzumaki Kushina asked in confusion, "What is the caged bird?"

Chiba shook her head at Uzumaki Kushina and said, "Kushina, don't ask about this."

Hyuga Hizashi waved her hand and said, "It's okay. Kushina is Neji's master's wife. She will know it later. Since Kushina wants to hear it, then I will tell you.

Regarding the caged bird, we must first talk about the system of the main family and branch family of our Hyuga clan.

In order to prevent the blood limit from being seized by outsiders, the descendants of the Hyuga clan divided the family into the main family and the branch family.

The main family is the true heir of the Hyuga clan, and is responsible for protecting and promoting the Hyuga clan. The branch family is the guardian of the Hyuga main family and is responsible for protecting the Hyuga main family.

The successor of the main family

There can only be one successor. If there are multiple descendants in the same generation of the main family, only one of them can be selected to inherit the main family, and the others are all branch families.

In other words, there can only be one person in a generation who is a main family. By analogy, even if the Hyuga clan has gone through thousands of years, there is only one main family, and the branch family will always be the guardian of the main family. This family system is the most efficient protection system.

When the branch family is three years old, the curse seal "Bird in a Cage" must be engraved on the forehead. This curse seal can seal the ability of the Byakugan. The main family can also control and destroy the brain nerves of the branch family members through this curse seal, thereby controlling the branch family. "

Uzumaki Kushina said in disbelief: "Aren't you a family? I can understand that in order to prevent the blood limit from leaking out, can't we use other methods? This method is too inhumane, right? "

Hinata Hizashi said helplessly: "Our branch family is indeed very dissatisfied with the main family because of this system, but we have no way to change it, because there is the "bird in the cage", and we can't change it either, because our lives are controlled..."

Uzumaki Kushina's heart was clenched when she heard it, and she felt very distressed when she saw Hinata Neji smiling at her in her arms.

Such a cute child will always be controlled by others in the future.

Qianyu was silent for a while and then said: "As my disciple, as a master, as long as I have the ability, I will not let my disciples fall into a situation without choice.

So this bird in the cage will not be the reason for Neji to be bound in the future. I will give Neji a choice for the future, whether to choose to sink into his own fate, or to break free from the shackles of fate and do what he wants to do. "

Hinata Hiashi didn't understand what Chiyu said, and looked at Chiyu in confusion.

Chiyu replied: "Master Hiashi, you know that the Uzumaki clan's sealing technique is the best in the ninja world. The bird in the cage seal may be very powerful, but for Kushina, an expert in sealing techniques, it is still easy to find a way to remove it."

Uzumaki Kushina looked at Chiyu in confusion.

Why didn't she know that she had a way to remove the bird in the cage?

The curse that can control and destroy the brain sounds difficult, right?

Chiyu looked at Uzumaki Kushina and asked with a smile: "Am I right? Kushina?"

Uzumaki Kushina heard Chiyu confirming with her, and could only stammer "um".
