Chapter 283 Who said Wang Po can’t brag about herself when selling melons?
Sarutobi Hiruzen knocked on the table a few more times, and after hearing the approval of the jonin below, he waved his hand to signal the people behind him to come out - he even very intimately asked Danzo to pull out the chair next to him.
The jonin were standing, Gekkou Hayate was sitting in the corner with a cane, and Hyuga Hizashi was kneeling on the ground.
There were only four Konoha high-ranking officials sitting at the conference table.
"Come in, Rizu, so I can explain it to everyone. Let us learn more."
He really seems like an elder, with a kind face and very approachable.
The visitor was not polite at all. He nodded and greeted everyone, then sat down on the stool as steady as a rock - he didn't even glance at the senior ninja sitting there.
Although most of these jonin are younger than Hyuga Hizashi, there are also some veterans.
You should still be polite if you should.
But Hyuga Hiashi refused.
Who is kneeling here like a dog? It's his younger brother! His face looks the same, but his fate is completely different!
"Hiashi, do you know that there is a ninjutsu in the Hyuga clan that can seal another person's meridians without leaving a trace?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen humbly asked for advice, and his face was full of wrinkles, and he was about to fly in front of Hyuga Hizashi.
Looking around, it seemed to be true - it just made Uchiha Itachi, who was peeking from the dark, feel disgusted. There were at least 50 Hyuga clan members, and they chose to find Hyuga Hiashi, the twin brother who looked exactly like Hizashi. Besides, everyone in Konoha Village knew that these two brothers had a grudge against each other.
Anyone who can do such a thing is either stupid or evil.
But Sarutobi Hiruzen is definitely not a fool, and he was not a bad guy before today, so why did he resort to such a desperate measure? He couldn't really believe that Hyuga Hiashi, as the head of the Hyuga clan, loved his people, right?
It was noon, and the sun was shining brightly, just like the perfect scene in a story where a villain is punished. However, the judge felt refreshed, but the spectators found it hard to breathe.
"Ahem." Even when facing the Hokage, Hiashi couldn't forget his damn face. No wonder in Gaara's memory, this guy was so textbook-like even when he knelt down to apologize.
The apology at that time was a dagger hidden in a smile, leaving the person being apologized for with an unclear path. Whether it was the suicide note of my father or the timing of the apology, it was nothing but the careful calculation of a sinister and cunning person.
What now? What will Hyuga Hiashi do to push his twin brother into the abyss?
"You may not know, Hokage, but my little brother has been extremely talented since he was a young boy." Hinata Hiashi glanced at Hizashi as he spoke: "At that time, he was a rising star in the future that even our father praised."
But if he is really a rising star, then the position of the clan leader should of course be occupied by someone with strength. If Hizashi is really as Hizashi said, then the one kneeling now should be his brother.
"It's just..." As expected of the Hyuga clan leader, even his storytelling is so ups and downs, and thought-provoking: "My younger brother is a stubborn person who is devoted to studying ninjutsu. He doesn't know how to treat people and things. He always thinks about how to become stronger."
As soon as Uchiha Itachi heard it, he sensed something was wrong. Hiashi's facial expression didn't look like he was lying, but rather like he was exaggerating.
Maybe he had a psychological trauma from having a younger brother who always overpowered him when he was young and frivolous. But fortunately, Rizu is not a fool, and now he has trampled on his younger brother in every aspect.
It can be said that there is no way back for the rest of his life.
No wonder Rizu likes to get close to Rizu so much, and even has to reluctantly get involved in such dirty things where right and wrong are unclear.
"According to the legend of our tribe, during the Warring States Period, there was a Hyuga tribe member with outstanding talent who developed a secret method that could seal the meridians silently and without leaving any trace, perfectly flawless."
Hinata Hiashi's seriousness inevitably reminded Uchiha Itachi of the joke he had seen before.
How much is too much?
What you said is too much!
The person in today's joke has escaped from the story and brought trouble upon himself.
Hinata Hiashi wisely shut his mouth and left everything to the Hokage to decide.
"Hokage." Sarutobi Hiruzen was still thinking when another voice came from the Jonin. The old man waved his hand and nodded, indicating that the other party could speak.
"I have also heard a little about the genius ninja mentioned by the Hiashi clan leader. If I remember correctly, he should be the general of the Warring States period, Hyuga Tennin-senpai."
Yuhi Kurenai was not from an aristocratic family, but because her family studied illusion, she had to read widely and collected many rare copies, including the Hyuga family story, whether it was official history or unofficial history.
Although Kurenai's father Kurenai died early in the battle against the Nine-tailed Demon Fox, he was also on good terms with the elders of Hyuga. Kurenai could even be sure that the book in her memory was the same as the one in Hyuga Hiashi's mouth.
After all, the Hyuga family's history is limited, and there's no need for Hiashi to make up stories here. A group of senior ninjas are standing here watching, and if he's not careful, he'll end up making things worse and becoming a laughing stock.
What Rizu said was not wrong, he was not one of those with outstanding fighting skills, he was not even as good as his brother who fought the bird in the cage.
But no matter what, he is the chief of the Hyuga clan. It is difficult for people not to acknowledge his status as the chief of the clan.
Be careful with your words and actions - the Hyuga elders will teach you, but the degree of implementation varies from person to person.
"Yuhi Kurenai Jonin is really well-read and has a broad vision!" Hiashi nodded in agreement, turned to Sarutobi Hiruzen and said, "It is this Hyuga Tennin senior."
"But this senior is a prodigy that only appears once in a thousand years. At the age of twelve, he was able to teach himself the secret technique of the Hyuga family, the Eight Diagrams Sixty-Four Palms. At the age of thirty, he was finally able to achieve the state of leaving no trace like a swallow passing by and killing people like exhaling a breath."
Yuhi Kurenai frowned, looked at Hinata Hizashi who was kneeling on the ground, then looked at Hiashi, but she said nothing again.
The twin brothers are now just over 40 years old and are entering middle age.
As the older brother, Hyuga Hiashi is only at the level of a jonin, and his younger brother was only slightly better than him in the past, and could be considered a top jonin.
The legendary Hyuga Tennin is said to have only lost to Hashirama Senju who possessed the Wood Release technique.
The Hokage is the most powerful person in the village, and Kurenai Yuhi doesn't want to deny that.
But as we all know, even among the Hokage, there are differences in strength.
Even Tobirama Senju, the second Hokage and the younger brother of Hashirama Senju, was powerless against the Wood Release.
That's how the fault appeared.
What about Sarutobi Hiruzen? Although he had one foot halfway into the coffin, he was still able to fight against Orochimaru.
Neither of the two brothers in front of him looked like they could defeat Orochimaru - it wasn't that Kurenai Yuhi looked down on the Hyuga brothers for being weak and powerless, it was just that the Hyuga Tennin was a big shot who was halfway to becoming a god.
If Hinata had not passed away from the plague in his prime, it would be hard to imagine what his life would be like now.
"What Hong said makes sense." Sarutobi Hiruzen still nodded, but his attitude towards Yuhi Kurenai was much gentler than towards others.
This is the charm of my daughter-in-law - her family background is not prominent, but fortunately she is good-looking, honest, and knows how to respect her elders.
Strength? Of course it is important, but talent alone is enough.
Danzo Shimura originally thought that the trial would end here, but Sarutobi Hiruzen started banging on the table again.
The old man was knocking on the table. Was he knocking on that table?
That's called the death knell.
"But...how do you explain the white eyes?"
"I heard that Orochimaru has a secret seal that can increase a person's strength in a short period of time. You have seen it once or twice."
"Yes, it is the curse seal on Uchiha Sasuke. I'm sure you are familiar with it. Kakashi..."
Kakashi was obviously distracted, and when his name was suddenly called, he looked up and responded.
I guess he wanted me to explain the function of the seal.
"Once the curse seal is triggered, the host's strength will increase by more than three times. Sasuke is still only a young Genin, so it is preliminarily estimated that it will have a stronger effect on an adult Jonin."
Hatake Kakashi said, and added: "It's just that the conditions for applying and removing the curse seal are very difficult. Even if Hiashi-senpai really decided to rely on the power of the curse seal, there is less than a one-tenth chance that he can survive and commit the crime. And now there should be traces of the curse seal on his body."
The silver-haired jonin took a deep breath and said, "Hokage-sama, with all due respect, I don't think there is a father who would abandon his children and take such a risky choice."
