Chapter 624: Chapter – 617 Kuroto vs Eight Uchiha Jonin
Under the gazes of all the Hyuga Clansmen who were standing on both sides of the street, Kuroto slowly walked away from his initial position and made his way towards the clamoring Uchiha Clansmen who were further trying to force their way inside the Hyuga Clan… While walking towards them, Kuroto didn't seem to have any worries on his face and his expression was calm as if he was out on just an after-meal walk.
Of course, not everyone was as calm as Kuroto… Behind him, Yui had clasped her hands over her chest and was looking at him with a worried expression… She bit her lip and glanced at Hizashi standing next to her, "Hizashi-sama…"
Hizashi nodded slightly, "I know…"
In fact, Yui didn't need to say anything as Hizashi had already activated his Byakugan, and he was paying utmost attention to Kuroto and the eight Uchiha Jonin with the intention of intervening immediately should the situation worsen for Kuroto.
And different from Kuroto, Yui, and Hizashi, Neji tiptoed from behind Hizashi and carefully peeked at everything that was happening.
Of course, Neji was also worried, but more than worry, his face was filled with expectations and curiosity…
Back at home, Neji has often heard Hizashi praise Kuroto, he has also heard Kuroto indirectly acknowledge that he is the current strongest in the Hyuga Clan… So, Neji wanted to see what the strongest of the Hyuga Clan can do in the face of such a disparity…
At the same time, outside the mansion of the Hyuga Patriarch, Hiashi also instructed his attendants to interfere if the situation worsen for Kuroto, at the same time, he also ordered some of them to immediately report this matter to Elder Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Eight Jonin Rank officers of the Konoha Military Police Force broke into the Hyuga Clan district, force their way in, and started to create chaos… Regardless of whether this matter is big or small, if it is not handled properly, it will definitely cause enmity, hatred, and major conflicts between the two Shinobi Clans, which wouldn't be good for either party, particularly for the Hyuga Clan, especially at this time when the Uchiha Clan is in full swing.
Moreover, if any major conflicts happen between the Hyuga Clan and the Uchiha Clan, it will affect the entire Konoha Village, which wouldn't be a very good thing, concerning the current complicated situation of the Shinobi World.
So, informing the matter to Sandaime Hokage-sama is the best choice, because he, as the third party would be able to intervene and solve the matter a little peacefully.
It's not that Hiashi doesn't trust Kuroto's strength, he does and is generally quite confident in Kuroto's abilities and choices, but the reason he isn't very optimistic about the situation this time is that facing eight Jonin rank shinobi at the same time, in particular, eight Jonins of the Uchiha who owns the three tomoe Sharingan of the Uchiha Clan, is no joke, and as such, even if doesn't want to, he has to prepare for the worst possibility.
On the long street, seeing that Hyuga Kuroto was walking towards them alone, one of the Uchiha shinobi, who recognized Kuroto by face immediately laughed out loud, "Oh? You actually came! And here I was thinking that you will continue to remain inside the Hyuga Clan district and not dare to show up in front of us… it turns out that I was wrong… You do have some guts; I will give you that…"
Another Uchiha shinobi who didn't recognize Kuroto at first glance looked at him with a disdainful gaze and asked the other Uchiha around him, "Hey, are you guys sure he is Hyuga Kuroto? He looks as weak as a chicken to me… did this guy really defeat Shinichi, and Hiiragi?"
Listening to the disdainful words of the Uchiha Clansmen, Kuroto's eyebrows twitched in annoyance… at the same time, he couldn't help but think to himself, 'I pity them, they don't even know how to humiliate someone…'
After an inner chuckle, Kuroto glanced at the eight Uchiha shinobi and asked faintly, "Why are the officers of the Konoha Military Police Force here? And why are you people looking for me? I don't believe I have even had contact with any of you before… So, what do you people want from me?"
At this time, one of the Uchiha, who seemed to be the leader of these eight Uchiha shinobi stepped forward, and said to Kuroto in a tone filled with contempt, "Hyuga Kuroto… we don't want to escalate this matter more than necessary… As long as you refuse to become the Principal of the Ninja Academy, and resign from that post… we will forget this matter, and leave without creating any problem… but if you refuse… then…"
From the manner he spoke, he seemed to be ordering Kuroto, rather than saying to him, and it was obvious that he was also issuing a warning to Kuroto that his order cannot be refused, or else the consequences wouldn't be very good.
One of the Uchiha behind him added with a chuckle, "Hey, that's not enough… he has to kneel down and apologize too for being rude to us!"
The so-called leader said in a sarcastic tone, "Don't make trouble Iwaki… he is a member of the Hyuga Clan, and Hyuga Clan is also a clan that is as strong as the Uchiha Clan on the surface, moreover, he also has Byakugan, although Byakugan is far inferior compared to our Sharingan, it is still one of the three Great Dojutsu, so we Uchiha needs to give them some face, otherwise what would the others think…?"
"Humph… what equal to our Uchiha Clan and what three great Dojutsu? They are a bunch of useless people… and their clan is as much trash as all of them!" After speaking such offending and provoking words, Iwaki disdainfully looked at the Hyuga Clansmen and deliberately spat on the street to further humiliate them.
Kuroto didn't seem to be affected, and after talking a yawn to relieve his tiredness, he said calmly, "Sigh, I am too busy to deal with a bunch of undisciplined and uncivilized people… I don't have time to entangle with all of you one by one… so… it's better if you people…"
Before Kuroto could complete his words, the leader interrupted Kuroto and said with a sly smile, "Want to escape? Do you think we would just let you go away so simply?! But of course, I am in a generous mood right now… as long as you resign from the post of the Principal of the Ninja Academy… we will forgive you… But if you don't, then you will have to be prepared to spend the next month in the Konoha Hospital… And you needn't worry about the expenses… we will pay for your medical expenses… our salaries are quite high…"
The group of Uchiha around him laughed… booing Kuroto and the entire Hyuga Clan without any worry, timidity, or regard to the fact that they were already surrounded by almost the entire Hyuga Clan.
Kuroto rotated his hand from the shoulder joint and said, "I think you are misunderstanding what I said… When I said that I don't have time to entangle with all of you one by one, I meant that I want all of you to come at me at once, I don't have enough time to spare on each one of you individually… so, let's go together…"
Kuroto said and then beckoned all eight of them to come at him at once.
Listening to the Kuroto's words, all the Hyuga Clansmen in the surroundings were taken aback… No one thought that Kuroto would fight all of them at once… this is simply unbelievable!
Yui was extremely shocked, looked at Kuroto's back with a surprised expression, and couldn't help but wonder, 'Since when did Kuroto-kun become so cool?'
Even Hizashi was taken aback and tried to think of Kuroto's intentions behind taking such a risk… As per Hizashi's understanding of Kuroto's nature, Kuroto is not the kind of guy who likes to show off… and he generally doesn't mess around with dangerous situations… 'Yet the fact that he is taking such a step… it can only mean one thing…' With such a thought he lightly glanced at Neji…
The leader of the team of Uchiha shinobi was also shocked, he was so shocked that he almost did not believe his ears… He leaned forward and after cleaning his ear, he said, "What did you just say? I didn't hear it clearly, care to repeat it again?"
"Yeah, sure…" Kuroto nodded with a wicked grin… then without waiting for the other party to respond, he leaned slightly backward and then struck a roundhouse kick on his chest, making him fly several meters high like a projectile…
After the leader drew a beautiful parabolic arc in the air, he slammed on the roof of a house with a muffled noise…
Bang!
"Did you all hear it correctly this time? If not, I can make another try, I'll be sure to make it clearer this time…" said Kuroto while looking at the rest of the Uchiha shinobi…
"..." Uchiha Shinobi…
"...." Hyuga Clansmen…
In an instant, the entire long street of the Hyuga Clan district became deadly quiet…
Whether the Hyuga Clansmen standing on both sides of the street or the Uchiha shinobi standing in front of him, they were all stunned by the sudden actions of Kuroto. None of them expected that Kuroto would make such a move, and the move would be so decisive and ruthless that he sent the other party crashing on the rooftop of a house.
It took a while for them to come back to their senses and realize what exactly happened… And as soon as they came back to their senses, the Uchiha Clansmen gritted their teeth in anger, "This guy… he is looking for death!"
And without any wait, all of them rushed towards Kuroto with killing intent on their faces…
Whoosh…
Kuroto chuckled lightly and by the time they had reacted, Kuroto had already moved from his position.
With a body flicker, he appeared behind Iwaki, and before Iwaki could react, he struck the back of Iwaki's knee with his foot making Iwaki forcibly collapse on the ground… Coincidently enough, Iwaki's face landed on the exact same spot where he had spat not long ago which raised several eyes at once…
Of course, Kuroto didn't care about those eyes, he closed in on Iwaki, then took out his Kusanagi Sword from its sheathe and after lifting off Iwaki's head by hardly pulling his hair, he pinned Iwaki's neck with the sharp edge of his blade casually and looked at the other Uchiha shinobi with a provocative expression.
As the metallic sharp edge of Kuroto's sword touched Iwaki's neck, Iwaki's angry face stiffened, and the curse that was about to come out unconsciously was also forced back down in the face of the shard edge that can take his life in a single slash.
Seeing that Iwaki was taken hostage, the other six Uchiha shinobi stopped midway, and under Kuroto's provocative look, all of them hesitated from making any more… they had to admit to themselves that Hyuga Kuroto is by no means weak, and they will have to take this fight seriously, otherwise they will make a fool of themselves!
"Humph… scared already?" with a cold snort, Kuroto removed the sword that pinned down Iwaki, then with the hilt of his Kusanagi Sword, he struck Iwaki's head, instantly making him lose consciousness and again collapse on the same spot where he had spat earlier.
With Iwaki knocked out, Kuroto got up, and after sheathing back his Kusanagi Sword, he said, "Don't worry this is just a casual fight, I don't have plans on killing you, people… it's not worth it. So, you people don't have to be scared and can come at me all at once."
Such words from Kuroto immediately reignited the anger within the Uchiha Shinobi… and they again started to shout curses at him…
"Arrggghhhh… that's it… I can't take it anymore; I am going to kill you!"
"Go to hell, you bastard!"
"Just die!"
But unlike last time, they have already learned their lesson… So, although they shouted curses at him, none of them made any careless moves against him… They had put away their previous contempt and were planning to fight seriously against Kuroto… In their hearts, each of them had accepted that Hyuga Kuroto wouldn't be easy to deal with… and they have to take this fight extremely seriously if they want to defeat Kuroto.
…
At the same time not far away from the Hyuga Clan.
Itachi and Shisui were coming toward the Hyuga Clan in a hurry… and Sasuke and Kiyomi were closely following the two.
Perhaps because Sasuke has never noticed his nii-san and Shisui so anxious and in a hurry, Sasuke also became worried, and pleaded to Itachi, "Nii-san, Shisui-nii-san, the two of you must save Neji's sensei… Neji is a good friend of mine, but if something were to happen to Neji's sensei because of our clan, how will I face him in the future? So, you two must save Neji's sensei! Please!"
Kiyomi didn't say anything… she was just silently following the three.

Chapter 625: Chapter – 618 Kuroto vs Six Uchiha Jonin
Hokage Building, Elder Hiruzen's Office.
Looking at the documents stacked high on his desk, Sarutobi Hiruzen helplessly put down his tobacco pipe and sighed with a tired expression.
Although he is no longer the Hokage of Konoha, he is still forced to deal with all the official duties of the Hokage, and the daily affairs of the village, whether big or small are still taken care of by him.
In fact, Sarutobi Hiruzen is very confused at this moment…
In order to become Konoha's Hokage, Danzo took great pains and even went as far as to completely offend him, after doing all this, it stands to reason that he should have kept the power in his hands, even as the temporary Hokage agent…
But this did not happen…
Unexpectedly, after becoming the temporary Hokage, although, Danzo made a few decisions and exercised a bit of Hokage's authority, his actions were well measured, such as changing the leaders of the Anbu department and some other things…
But other than these few actions, Danzo did not do anything else, even managing the daily affairs of the village was left to Sarutobi and other Elders of the advisory board, which is too abnormal considering Danzo's personality and his desire for power.
'What does he want to do?'
Although Sarutobi Hiruzen can't guess Danzo's thoughts, he has a vague feeling that Danzo is planning something secretly, and whatever Danzo is planning, it must be extremely important to him, so important that Danzo doesn't even have the time to devote enough attention into exercising his power as the Temporary Hokage.
'What could it be?'
As Hiruzen was pondering, suddenly there was a rapid knock on the door of his office.
Knock Knock Knock
Interrupted in the midst of his thoughts, Elder Sarutobi retracted and said, "Come in!"
Immediately after he instructed to 'come in', a Hyuga clansman under the lead of an Anbu walked inside Elder Hiruzen's office and concisely reported the violent act of the members of the Konoha Military Police Force and everything they did after forcing their way into the Hyuga Clan district.
"What?!"
Upon hearing the details of the actions of members of the Konoha Military Police Force, the former Hokage was taken aback and got up from his chair with a shocked expression.
Initially, Elder Hiruzen really wanted to give the position of the Principal of the Ninja Academy to Uchiha Shisui in order to appease the Uchiha Clan, but even Shisui deemed Hyuga Kuroto to be a better candidate, so, Hiruzen went along with it.
From Elder Hiruzen's perspective, Hyuga Kuroto is also a very good candidate for the position of the principal of the Ninja Academy, and considering Kuroto's identity as the member of the Hyuga Clan, giving him that position also meant drawing the favor and support of the Hyuga Clan towards him, which is also a good political move, so the former Hokage also chose Kuroto and assigned him the position.
Hiruzen knew that the Uchiha Clan would be slightly dissatisfied with this, and had planned an alternative means to compensate the Uchiha Clan, but he didn't expect that before he could offer them that compensation, some of the Uchiha Clansmen had already taken such impulsive actions… They were arrogant and crazy enough to forcefully enter the Hyuga Clan district and provoke conflict with Hyuga Kuroto and the Hyuga Clan!
Although this has angered the former Hokage when he thought of the possibility of a large-scale conflict that might happen between the Uchiha Clan and the Hyuga Clan, Sandaime knew that he couldn't sit still and let it happen, so immediately after getting up from his chair, he ordered the subordinates around him, "Hurry up! Arrange a team of Anbu and follow me to the Hyuga Clan district… can't let them fight at any cost!"
…
In the Hyuga Clan district.
Upon seeing two of their clansmen get defeated within a few seconds, the remaining six Jonin Rank Uchiha were taken aback and looked at Kuroto with vigilant expressions on their faces.
They knew that they can't play around anymore and might have to take this fight seriously, else not only will this affect their reputation, but also affect the reputation of the entire Uchiha Clan!
Understanding this, they got serious and entered their respective fighting state… And as soon as they did so, all six of them showed amazing cooperative skills and superb tactical qualities.
Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh
With the sound of breaking wind, the six Uchiha used body flicker Jutsu and instantly divided into three teams, each one consisting of two members… and surrounded Kuroto from three sides, thus effectively cutting off his escape from three sides.
Observing their actions, Kuroto smiled slightly.
Surrounding from only three sides, and leaving a retreat for the surrounded target is a not-so-popular tactic sometimes used by the Uchiha Clansmen.
Under the pressure of being surrounded by three sides, the target chooses the only option to escape, and then the game of hunting begins where the target is the prey and the Uchiha Clansmen are experienced hunters playing with their prey as they slowly kill him mentally and physically until the prey loses all his fighting intent and surrenders.
Kuroto is obviously aware of this so this tactic of the Uchiha Clan, as such, this tactic is not going to work on him, in fact, even if he wasn't aware of it, this tactic still wouldn't have worked on him because of the difference in their strengths, speed, and battle IQ.
Unaware of this fact, the Uchiha Jonins continued, and as soon as they surrounded Kuroto, two of them started to weave hand signs for a combined Jutsu…
'Fire Style: Fire Ball Jutsu!'
'Wind Style: Whirling Tornado!'
In an instant, a hot fireball was sprayed out by an Uchiha Jonin, and at the same time, a whirling tornado was released by another Jonin standing next to him… The Fire of the Fireball was flared by the Whirling Tornado and blasted toward Kuroto in the form of a Fire Tornado.
At the same time, an Uchiha Jonin on both sides of Kuroto started to simultaneously weave hand signs and released their Jutsu…
'Earth Style: Mud Wall!'
'Earth Style: Mud Wall!'
In an instant two mud walls rose on either side of Kuroto and blocked his retreat from the side, while the other two Uchiha had their swords, shuriken, and Kunai ready to make their next move as they observed Hyuga Kuroto with their three-tomoe Sharingan, waiting for Kuroto to react so that they can deal with him accordingly.
Boom
The huge Fire Tornado rushed towards Kuroto, along the way, a deep charred gully was plowed on the newly built street, and under the scorching temperature of the Fire tornado, the masonry paved on the streets melted into liquid mud and exuded a burst of green smoke.
Seeing the scale of Jutsu and its damaging effects, the Hyuga Clansmen, including Hizashi, Yui, as well as Hiashi on the streets exclaimed and looked at Kuroto with a worried expression.
Earlier Kuroto managed to instantly take down two Jonin of the Uchiha clan with very little effort, although they were surprised and somewhat relieved, they also knew that it was simply because of the element of surprise and because they were seriously underestimating Kuroto, but now they can see that the rest of the six Uchiha Jonin are taking this seriously… and dealing with six of them at once wouldn't be easy.
The only reason Hizashi hasn't interfered up to now is that Kuroto wanted to deal with them himself, but of course, he was ready to intervene any time… most of the other Hyuga Clansmen had the same thought as Hizashi… after all, Kuroto is a member of the Hyuga Clan, and he is deeply loved and respected in the Clan, especially by the members of the Branch family many of whom consider him their ideal, as such, no one in Hyuga Clan would watch him being bullied by Uchiha Clan, that too within the Hyuga Clan district.
Neji, who was hiding behind Hizashi narrowed his eyes with a look of horror on his face. The heat waves emitted by the Fire Tornado were too hot and they instantly charred his lips and were difficult to look at directly… He couldn't imagine just how dangerous would it be to face such a thing from the front, and as the tornado was about to hit Kuroto, he involuntarily closed his eyes… afraid to watch Kuroto die.
But at this time, a voice reached Neji's ears, "Neji… don't close your eyes, open them and see what is about to happen!"
As this voice reached his ears, Neji subconsciously opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was Kuroto making his move…
Kuroto made no attempt to dodge the Fire Tornado or defend against it using Revolving Heaven as everyone had expected, instead, he used body flicker Jutsu and dived straight into it head-on!
"That's practically suicide! Does he have a death wish?!" Such a thought flashed into the minds of the onlookers.
'Idiot!' thought Uchiha Jonins.
Booom!
An explosive sound reached everyone's ears, they saw Kuroto breaking the entire Fire Tornado using his sheer speed as he moved through it without any hindrance, and the very next instant, Kuroto was already standing in front of two Uchiha Jonin who had just used the combined Jutsu.
"You… wh-…!" That's all they could speak as before they could finish their words, they found themselves being held by Kuroto from their necks.
"Too weak!" muttered Kuroto disdainfully as he held the two Uchiha from their necks and without speaking anything more, he precisely injected his Chakra into their necks and made them faint by temporarily blocking their nasal cavity.
Watching their companions being held by Kuroto like two chickens, the other four Uchiha felt embarrassed and angry!
Plop… Plop…
Without giving any regard to their embarrassment and anger, Kuroto threw them to the side racks–in the same position where Iwaki was lying unconscious.
Those four of the eight members of the Konoha Military Police Force were taken care of and then looked at the rest of them with an impatient expression, "Go ahead, but can the rest of you be slightly quicker? I don't have time all day… as I am in a bit of a hurry!"
