Chapter 68

Dragging her tired body, Hinata returned to the Hyuga family.

The Hyuga family's building was still intact, and it seemed that they had not encountered too strong enemies.

Hinata wanted to take a bath, then have a big meal, and finally lie on the bed for a good sleep...

Hinata Tokuma appeared in front of Hinata with a flash body technique.

"Hinata-sama, Hiashi-sama, please come over."

Hinata sighed, and said with a little helplessness on her face: "Tokuma, go and tell father that I am very tired and want to go back to the house to rest, and wait until the evening to find him."

Hinata Tokuma looked up at Hinata and said sincerely: "Hinata-sama, please forgive me for being frank, you don't look very tired."

Hinata: I... okay!

"Is it okay if I am tired?"

"Forget it! Lead the way!"

Hinata was a little helpless. Hyuga Tokuma was a stubborn man. He was loyal, but his emotional intelligence was too low. He couldn't tell who he should be loyal to.

In fact, when Hinata first traveled to the Hyuga family, she always thought that the people of the branch family would be very hostile to the main family.

But the real situation is...

There may be hostility and resentment, but that is only a very small number of people.

Just like Konoha used the "Will of Fire" to brainwash Konoha's ninjas, the Hyuga family naturally has a set of brainwashing methods.

People from the branch family will be brainwashed by their elders since birth.

The elders of the Hyuga family will tell them that their lifelong responsibility is to protect the main family and the bloodline of the Hyuga family.

Under this brainwashing policy, as long as the people of the main family do not bully the branch family, the people of the branch family will not resent the main family.

Maybe some people will be dissatisfied and unwilling in their hearts, but they will not show it on their faces.

If the main family and the branch family of the Hyuga family really hostile to each other, the main family regards the branch family as slaves, and the branch family regards the main family as an enemy, then the Hyuga family may have perished long ago, and may be even worse than the Uchiha clan, and there will be no glory now.

Because the hatred of the branch family is likely to be used by the enemy.

The fact that the Hyuga family has survived from the Warring States Period to the present and has become the most powerful family in the ninja world proves that this brainwashing policy is effective.

Neji in the original work is an exception. He resented the main family because of his father's death.

If Hyuga Hizashi had not died, Ningji might have protected Hinata for his whole life!

Following Hyuga Tokuma to Hyuga Hiashi's study, Hinata pushed the door in.

Hyuga Hiashi sat behind the desk with a stern face, but his hands moved smoothly. After brewing tea, he poured the tea into the teacup, slightly pushed it towards Hinata, and said lightly: "Come and sit down!"

"Father!"

After Hinata saluted, she sat opposite Hyuga Hiashi and asked: "How is the family here?"

Hyuga Hiashi said slowly: "Since we have made preparations in advance, there are only some financial losses."

Hinata drank a sip of tea, looked up at Hyuga Hiashi, and asked curiously: "Will the village reimburse you?"

Hyuga Hiashi was speechless for a while.

My Hyuga clan is a big family with a lot of wealth. You want to ask the village to reimburse me for the loss of some ninja tools and buildings?

Where can I put my Hyuga family's face?

Hinata didn't notice Hyuga Hiashi's expression and continued: "Someone in the family should be injured! This should be considered a work injury. The village will pay for treatment, right?"

Hyuga Hiashi said in a deep voice: "What are you thinking about?"

Hinata looked at Hyuga Hiashi with a confused expression and said blankly: "Save money for the family!"

"Father, look! I will inherit the Hyuga family in the future, right? Then the money of the Hyuga family is my money. What's wrong with me saving some money for myself?"

Nothing wrong?

Hyuga Hiashi: "..."

Very wisely, he didn't pick up Hinata's words and asked: "I heard that you caught Gaara, the one-tailed Gaara of the Sand Village?"

Hinata was shocked and said: "Father, you know so quickly, our Hyuga family's intelligence is really powerful!"

Hyuga Hiashi: Didn't you spread it in the village yourself?

Hinata Hiashi felt a little tired and asked, "Do you know what the tailed beasts mean to a village? If you catch the one-tailed beast from the Sand Village, it may bring trouble to Konoha!"

Hinata was puzzled and said, "It can't be that serious! I just want to use the one-tailed beast to exchange for some money from the Sand Village..."

"By the way! Father, you should talk to the village leaders about this matter!"

"There are several other people who caught the one-tailed beast with me this time. After exchanging money with the Sand Village, we can split it equally among several of us!"

Originally, Hinata didn't want to split it.

But from the tone of Hinata Hiashi, it seems that the matter is quite serious.

So it is necessary to drag a few people to take the blame together.

Hyuga Hiashi looked at Hinata with a slightly helpless expression. Why is there only money in my daughter's head...

Hyuga Hiashi asked: "What do you want so much money for? If you are short of money, you can get it from home!"

Hinata said happily: "Thank you, father!"

After a pause, Hinata lamented: "I want money because I want to make up for the loss! I just lost several hundred million!"

Hyuga Hiashi was shocked and said: "Lost so much money! What did you do?"

At this moment, Hyuga Hiashi just wanted to check the accounts of the Hyuga family as soon as possible to see what unforgivable things Hinata did, and actually lost several hundred million!

"Alas!"

Hinata sighed and said: "Father, do you know that there is gambling in the Chunin Exam!"

"But I didn't place a bet in advance, otherwise I could have easily made several hundred million?"

Hinata Hiashi was tired.

"Get out!"

Hinata stood up and bowed obediently, saying: "Father, I'm going to go back to sleep first. Good night~"

Chapter 104 Those years, the three generations we met together

After the Konoha collapse plan was completed, a large number of official commissioned tasks appeared in Konoha's task distribution department.

They were mainly D-level tasks.

The tasks were mostly to repair village buildings, or collect building materials, and some C-level patrol tasks.

Things like rebuilding a village are much faster for ninjas than civilians, and they can also allow some new ninjas to experience the cruelty of war up close and mature as soon as possible.

But before carrying out the mission, Hinata still has two things to do.

The next morning, Hinata, wearing a black funeral dress, followed Hyuga Hiashi, Hyuga Hiashi, and Neji to the rooftop of the Hokage Building.

The weather today is not very good. It started to be gloomy in the morning.

Just like people's mood.

When Hinata arrived, the rain was already dripping down, as if the sky was crying sadly.

But it could also be caused by ninjutsu...

In the rain, people lined up to offer flowers at the funeral.

Everyone was recalling the days related to the third generation, including Hinata.

Thinking carefully, putting aside those prejudices, when the third generation chatted with Hinata alone, he always looked like a kind and amiable grandfather.

He was like an ordinary old man, not like the leader of a ninja village at all.

But the third generation died in the way of a 'shadow'.

At this moment, Hinata also put aside her previous prejudice against the third generation and seriously recalled the third generation we met together in those years.

Also, the heavy rain that we missed in those years... was made up today.

I remember that at that time, Hinata was still studying in the ninja school.

After school, Hinata would often go to the snack street to buy a lot of food, and then run to the Hokage Rock alone, sitting on the head of which Hokage, eating snacks while enjoying the scenery of Konoha.

That position is very high, and you can see the scenery of the whole Konoha.

Hinata was also a little bit second-year at that time, and often put herself into the state of mind of Senju Hashirama or Uchiha Madara, looking down at Konoha...ah! This is my village!

The third generation would occasionally come over and talk to Hinata, and then shamelessly snatch Hinata's snacks to eat.

Among the many ninjas in Konoha, many people have more or less met the third generation alone, and then been pulled by the third generation to talk and brainwash.

Of course, the third generation you met may just be his shadow clone.

After all, the third generation as a Hokage cannot be so idle.

If you are a ninja in Konoha, if you have not been pulled by the third generation to talk alone, then it can only mean one thing...you are not important at all!

Therefore, everyone at the scene was missing the days when they met the third generation, feeling sad.

However... Kakashi didn't come.

Although Kakashi was a late king, he was also a ninja, and he would never be late for important occasions.

At this moment, Kakashi should be standing in front of the memorial, and it is not known whether he was missing Obito and Rin, or missing his deceased father.

Although the memorial must not have the name of White Fang engraved on it...

"Woo--"

Konohamaru cried very sadly, he lost his grandfather today.

Iruka and Naruto stood beside Konohamaru, comforting him in a low voice.

They thought of themselves again.

Everyone seemed to have a sad past.

When White Fang committed suicide, Kakashi was younger than Konohamaru.

Who would comfort Kakashi, who was only five years old?

The third generation and White Fang were both trying to protect their companions in the village. One was a hero, and the other was a coward.

It was difficult for Hinata to judge the merits and demerits.

As a ninja, Baiya gave up the mission after all, and it is said that he caused huge losses to the village.

But from a certain perspective, Orochimaru is in this situation because the third generation was soft-hearted and let Orochimaru run away.

Then who should bear the loss of Konoha today?

If the third generation had been able to kill Orochimaru, would there be no Konoha collapse plan today?

But no one should blame the third generation!

It’s just that the mistakes made by the third generation and Baiya are actually the same in nature.

So the third generation chose to fight Orochimaru alone, and would rather risk his life to seal Orochimaru’s ninjutsu. Isn’t this another kind of suicide?

In the end, the third generation chose to die the same way as Baiya.

As long as there are leaves flying, fire will burn, and the shadow of the fire will illuminate the village, and let new leaves sprout.

Today, the third generation is indeed illuminating the entire village.

As for the mistakes, let them fade away with his death!

After all... Konoha still has a Pot King Danzo.

And Hinata can't blame a dead person.

Hinata actually feels sorry for Kakashi.

Kakashi must have lived a very lonely life these years...

But Kakashi is also lucky because he met a little cutie like me!
