Capítulo 40: Chapter 40 Uncaging Caged Bird, The Revolution Begins
Night, Leaves
Before that, Hyuga Neji gathered with the Jōnin in the remote compound of the branch house.
Thirteen people, including Hyuga Neji, Hyuga Iroha, Hyuga Hiromu, Hyuga Daisuke, Hyuga Nikusuke, and Hyuga Tokuma, waited in heavy silence, their breaths thick with anticipation.
"You all came early...
Sorry I'm late!
Neji, let's get started..."
Suddenly, a voice rang in everyone's ears, making them feel a surge of happiness.
Without Neji needing to say a word, the twelve people who had prepared stood in a row, removing their forehead protectors in unison, closing their eyes, and holding up a piece of white paper to cover their faces.
This was what Naruto had asked Neji to arrange.
As long as he was knocked out, he didn't want to get involved in any trouble with these people, so as not to affect his pursuit of the two sisters, Hinata and Hanabi.
Naruto remained indifferent to Neji and the Hyuga's loyalty.
"Okay..."
After checking carefully, Neji closed his eyes and called out softly.
Naruto confirmed that everyone had their eyes closed through his Byakugan, then appeared in front of them in an instant.
Taking out the transfer stick, Naruto quickly copied their Caged Bird seal onto the white paper with ease.
The whole process took no more than two minutes.
Tip: Change the fate trajectory of multiple people in the Hyuga branch house and gain 6000 Honkai points.
*Hehe...
An average of 500 points per person—this is a return on investment!*
"Neji, what I promised you has been done.
Remember my request.
What happens next has nothing to do with me..."
Naruto thought to himself, turning to look at Neji, who had his eyes closed, and reminded him again.
"Hinata and Hanabi!
I know that we are preparing for a bloodless revolution this time.
It won't cause the Hyuga to bleed like the Senju and Uchiha..."
Neji slowly opened his eyes, looked at Naruto gratefully, and said, "Whatever you want..."
Naruto nodded in satisfaction, smiled lightly, and left in an instant...
"Uncles, you can open your eyes now.
The Caged Bird seal has been lifted."
Neji exclaimed excitedly after Naruto left.
The twelve branch house Jōnin opened their eyes abruptly, rolling them involuntarily as they felt their fully functional Byakugan.
"It's really lifted..."
"Hahaha..."
"Finally, we no longer have to be controlled by the clan..."
"Father, I've broken the shackles of the branch house..."
"Our branch house has truly reached a turning point..."
Seeing the 360-degree vision without blind spots and their smooth foreheads, everyone couldn't help but burst into tears of joy...
"Everyone, listen...
According to the plan, we will start acting tonight!
The fate of the branch house will be changed by us."
Neji, too, was swept up in everyone's emotions, interrupting their excitement with a trembling voice.
The leaders, Hyuga Iroha, Hyuga Hiromu, and Hyuga Daisuke, exchanged glances and nodded imperceptibly.
Suddenly, Hyuga Tokuma, who was closest to Neji, struck the back of Neji's neck.
Neji, who currently only had the strength of a Chūnin, was instantly knocked out by the sudden attack.
Hyuga Tokuma picked up Neji and placed him in a bedroom inside the room.
"Tokuma, you stay here and protect Neji.
There are only four Jōnin in the clan, and the rest of us will be enough.
He is the first-generation patriarch from our Hyuga branch; there can be no mistakes..."
Hyuga Iroha pondered for a moment before speaking to Hyuga Tokuma.
"But...
Alright!"
Hyuga Tokuma was about to protest but, seeing Hyuga Iroha's serious eyes, he suppressed his discontent and said helplessly.
There was no way around it; he only had the strength of a special Jōnin.
"Tokuma, your mission is very important.
In case we fail, you and Neji are the hope of the branch house.
This time, we're just asking Neji, as he is the one who unlocked the Caged Bird!
It's to prevent the main family from stealing information from our minds after a failure.
You wait here for our news, and if we fail, you have to protect Neji and escape from the clan's pursuit..."
Hyuga Homon, understanding Hyuga Tokuma's unwillingness, patted his shoulder and explained.
This bloodless revolution was Neji's proposal, but these experienced elders had still kept Neji in the dark and prepared for contingencies.
They didn't plan to let Neji participate in this dangerous change from the beginning.
Neji was the one they placed high hopes on!
"Tokuma, Neji is under your watch."
Hyuga Iroha nodded solemnly to Hyuga Tokuma, gave a low command, and rushed out of the courtyard quickly.
The other ten branch house Jōnin quickly followed, disappearing into the night...
I hope everything goes well...
Hyuga Tokuma paused silently for a moment before slowly walking back to the room.
Hyuga Clan Land
Everything was quiet and peaceful as usual...
Suddenly, eleven figures appeared, divided into four teams, moving swiftly through the clan grounds with ease, soon arriving at their respective target courtyards.
"Chief Hiashi, the branch house Iroha has something to discuss..."
Hyuga Iroha took two people and approached the clan's main house, calling out.
If a bloodless change could be achieved, they could accept it.
After all, the Hyuga were still part of Konoha.
The main family still held many untold secrets of the Hyuga, which they longed for.
"Iroha?
Has the branch house become so presumptuous now?"
With a bang, the door was pushed open, and Hyuga Hiashi walked out with a serious expression, scolding them without anger but with authority.
Hiashi believed he had been good to the branch house, but bringing people to the main house at night felt wrong to him.
"The Hiashi patriarch...
I, Hyuga Iroha, have come to discuss the reform of the branch house system on behalf of the branch house.
If you agree, then you will remain the Hyuga Patriarch of this generation."
Seeing Hiashi's angry expression, Hyuga Iroha stated bluntly.
"Reform the branch house system?
Are you trying to rebel?
Or is the Caged Bird no longer able to restrain your ambition?"
Hyuga Hiashi's expression turned cold, Chakra erupting as the veins around his eyes bulged, and his robe rattled loudly.
