章 319: Chapter – 315 Is Shinno on Move?
After the practice, Hyuga Hizashi pulled Kuroto to the side and asked sternly, "Kuroto-Kun, what did you mean when you spoke those things to Neji?"
Kuroto didn't answer but just smiled casually while looking in the distant moon that was not clearly visible because it was still daytime.
Hizashi frowned, and asked seriously, "Kuroto-Kun, do you have any objection in regards to the education system of Clan?"
Kuroto shook his head, "I won't say that I have any objection, but I do have some suggestions or perhaps should I say advices?"
"Advice? Like what?" – asked Hizashi.
After a while of silence, Kuroto said, "We of the Hyuga Clan shouldn't just focus on Gentle Fist, it is about time we start training the children of our clan in terms of other aspects of Shinobi arts, otherwise it would get more and more difficult for us to maintain our foothold in the shinobi world in the coming future."
Hizashi was silent, and then asked, "What other aspects are you suggesting?"
Compared to the more rigid clansmen of the Main House, Hyuga Hizashi as a member of the Branch House is more acceptable of the ideas of reform. However, because of his limited vision, Hizashi is also confused about where to start the reforms from.
Kuroto shrugged, "Of course start with the weakness of Hyuga Clan!"
"Our weakness?" – This time Hizashi was a bit confused. Gentle Fist of Hyuga Clan is so strong that few can dare to say that there is any weakness or shortcoming in it, as such he didn't quite understand what aspect was Kuroto referring to as the 'weakness' of the Hyuga Clan.
Seeing Hizashi's confused look, Kuroto sighed. He was honestly shocked that even people as experience as Hiashi are unable to see the weakness of Gentle Fist, or maybe even if Hizashi has noticed but he doesn't seem to want to accept it.
And seeing Kuroto's look, Hizashi directly asked, "Okay, just tell me, what is the weakness of Hyuga Clan?"
Kuroto stretched out his finger, "First, we cannot compete against Bijuu class enemies on an even footing."
Hyuga's Gentle Fist can literally render a shinobi useless for the rest of his life, or kill him in just a few shots but fighting a Bijuu class enemy? That's just unimaginable for the Hyuga Clansmen, as Gentle Fist will be pretty much useless in that level of battle.
Hizashi was a bit speechless, "Monsters of such level are simply not what normal shinobi can deal with, as such it is normal for us Hyuga to be unable to deal with Bijuu."
However, Kuroto shook his head and said, "That's not true and you know it, there are a lot of Uchiha who can subdue Bijuu class enemies. Why can't the Hyuga who are the bearers of one of the three great Dojutsu just like the Uchiha can not subdue Bijuu Class enemies?"
Hizashi was silent.
At this time, Kuroto stretched out another finger and continued, "We cannot deal with Uchiha Shinobi who can use Susanoo. Why is that? We Hyuga claim ourself be equal to the Uchiha Clan, then why is it that we are so weak in the face of Mangekyou Sharingan? Why treat Hyuga Clan as ordinary? Are Hyugas just meant to be used as Sensor Class? Because if that's really what we are hoping for then instead of competing with Uchiha Clan we should compete with Inuzuka Clan and the Aburame Clan. Because an Uchiha who can use later stages of Susanoo can destroy our Hyuga Clan in moments."
When faced with Susanoo, no matter how perfect Gentle Fist is, it is as weak as a twig.
In fact, Uchiha Sasuke mocking Hinata a few months ago is not just a child's ignorance. With the emergence of more and more Uchiha who have awakened Mangekyou Sharingan, Hyuga Clan, who used to be as strong as Uchiha Clan seems to be weaker and weaker as days pass.
Hizashi opened his mouth as if he wanted to retort Kuroto's statement but even after he thought a lot, he just couldn't think anything that would put up a solid argument.
When faced with that massive Susanoo, he, himself feels that he would be pretty much useless.
Kuroto didn't point out any more weakness, but said, "We Hyuga need more powerful ninjutsu, we need bigger Summon Beasts, we need to create stronger and more useful Fuinjutsu, we need to better exploit the advantages of our Dojutsu in different aspects of Shinobi arts that aren't just limited to Gentle Fist, for example, Iryo Ninjutsu, distant projectile attacks et cetera…
You also understand that the direction in which this shinobi world is headed is very chaotic… if the Hyuga Clan hopes to survive the upcoming storms then we need shinobi capable of dealing with those monsters otherwise, the Hyuga Clan too will fade away just like most of those clans that have faded away in the long river of time."
Kuroto has accurately worded out what he hopes for Hyuga Clan to improve.
Especially in the field of Summoning, Iryo Ninjutsu, and Fuinjutsu.
As a noble Shinobi Clan with a long history, it is impossible that Hyuga Clan does not have knowledge about the many Summoning Clans, and knowledge of stronger summons. And even if it isn't there, the Hyuga Clan can invest its resources in locating Summoning Clans and making pacts with them.
The same goes for Iryo Ninjutsu, Hyuga shinobi have Byakugan, therefore they hold the caliber to become some of the best Iryo Ninjutsu users, and yet there are close to no or very few Hyuga shinobi or Kunoichi who opts to practice Iryo Ninjutsu.
And Fuinjutsu is not much different, firstly we Hyuga have the ability to analyze the Chakra Flowing Mechanism in a seal, moreover, the Hyuga Clan were able to create Caged Bird Curse Seal, and yet there is close to no unique seals within the Hyuga Clan that can help its shinobi deal with enemies, this seems really ridiculous.
Gentle Fist is indeed impeccable. But that's also its weakness. It's not as versatile as Strong Fist. It limits Hyuga Shinobi to research and creates their own path, so there is almost no development or advancement within the Hyuga Clan.
Compared to Gentle Fist, Strong Fist seems to hold more potential even if it is in conjunction with another Kinjutsu.
Might Guy with his Strong Fist Taijutsu and Hachimon Tonkou was able to fight against Uchiha Madara, even if he didn't manage to kill Madara, but being called the strongest Taijutsu user by none other than Madara is no joke.
And even if we don't count that, Might Guy was still one of the strongest forces during the Fourth Great Shinobi War.
But what about the Hyuga Clan?
Hyuga Clan with their perfect Gentle Fist were nothing whether during Pain's Assault or during the later Fourth Great Shinobi War, the Hyuga was used as nothing more than Sensors who would detect and tell the status of fights. Everyone was basically cannon fodder class, they could be stomped any moment.
Is that what Hyuga Clan truly is?
Has Byakugan been reduced to nothing more than what Ninken and Bugs do?
Kuroto spoke in a deep voice, "Gentle Fist has what made Hyuga Clan one of the most prominent ones, but Gentle Fist is also what's restricting us and leading us to fade away, we should not forget that it was Hyuga Clan that made Gentle Fist not the other way around… we should not limit ourself to just a clan that specializes in Hyuga Taijutsu and sensing. It is time we change otherwise it will be too late to change ourselves."
Hizashi sighed, "I will think about this matter, but make sure that you do not speak of this to anyone as it could lead to issues."
Kuroto nodded and this time asked something casually, "By the way, does anyone in your knowledge of our clan has mastered Spirit Transformation Jutsu?"
Hizashi muttered, "Spirit Transformation Jutsu? There shouldn't be anyone within the Clan capable of using this Jutsu. As far as I know, there was only one shinobi known to use such a Jutsu and he has been dead for a very long time."
Kuroto nodded, he didn't really want to reveal what he saw during the Moryo's Raging as that would be counterproductive.
After that out of the way, Kuroto went back to Yui, Shion, and Taruho who were waiting for him.
Yui asked curiously, "Kuroto-kun, what were you talking with Hizashi-sama?"
Kuroto rubbed her head gently and said, "Don't worry just some casual updates, nothing too serious. You don't need to worry about these things for now."
Yui was silent for a while then nodded with a cheerful smile.
After that, the four went in the direction of Kuroto's house while talking and laughing.
…
At the same time somewhere within the hinterlands of Land of Tea.
A shinobi wearing the forehead protector of an unknown shinobi village said, "Shinno-sama, we have transported almost all the materials."
Shinno nodded, "Very good."
The Shinobi asked, "Shinno-sama, this time are we finally going to stop hiding and take our revenge against Konohagakure?"
Shinno said while looking towards the distant moon that was yet not visible because it was currently day time, "Do not worry, the Land of Sky will rise soon enough, and under my command, we will rule over the entire Shinobi World." – The corners of lips arched as he continued, "With my ultimate weapon, I will bury Konoha!"
The shinobi who stood on the side was excited, "Is it finally the time? Are you going to use that to destroy Konohagakure?"
