Chương 144: Drunk
The Hyuga clan was loyal to Konoha.
Although their Byakugan was as famous as the Sharingan, they never showed their ambitions, and never interfered with Konoha's politics. They owned 1.3 acres of land and Konoha let them do what they want there.
It could be said they were a very reliable family.
In fact, the Hygas cared more about their Bloodline Limit than Konoha's hot seats.
In order to protect their Bloodline Limit from the outsiders, the Hyuga clan divided the clan into two families: the Main Familiy, and the Branch Family.
The mission of the main family was to preserve the clan's Bloodline Limit and ensure the continuity of the clan, while the branch family was tasked with protecting the main family. Members of the branch family had to give up their life for the safety of the main family. To support this cause, every member of the branch family was branded with a special cursed seal.
The cursed seal was composed of a swastika symbol surrounded by two jade mark. This gave the main family absolute control over the branch family members, basically making them their servants. The branded clansmen would be trapped under their counterpart's control until their death, hence the name "Caged Bird Cursed Seal".
With just a simple hand seal, the main family members could destroy their counterpart's brain cells or cause them intense pain as punishment. If the branded person die, their Byakugan would automatically be sealed forever, thus preventing their enemies from obtaining the eye's secrets.
In each generation of the Hyuga clan, only one person could earn the position in the main family, and the others would be assigned into the branch family. This practice did keep Byakugan from the enemies' hands, but the negative consequences from it were also very serious, the most obvious being the withering of talents.
The Caged Bird Cursed Seal limited the potential of a person's Byakugan, deprives them of their freedom, and at the same time holding back their growth. After all, a caged bird would never be able to fly freely in the sky.
Compared with their past glories, the Hyuga clan had become mediocre today, and there were only few talented people left in the clan. This was also the case with Neji and his father Hizashi.
It was a pity that even Neji, a genius with infinite possibilities, was still trapped by the Caged Bird Cursed seal until his death, while his father Hizashi sacrificed his life for the clan. It could be said that the poor father-and-son suffered from the same fate.
Thinking of this, Zhang Miao immediately looked at them with some sympathy.
Feeling Zhang Miao's unusual gaze, Hizashi frowned in doubt.
"What's the matter? Is there anything strange about me?"
"Uh..." Seeing that Hizashi is so keen, Zhang Miao hurriedly smiled and waved to him,
"No, no, I just remembered something important. Please, sit down!"
"Pardon for the intrusion!"
Hearing Zhang Miao's words, Hizashi agreed, and then sat down opposite Zhang Miao.
After he sat down, Zhang Miao warmly greeted him while placing the marinated meat on the grill with his chopsticks.
"Uncle Hyuga, welcome to the feast! Nothing better than a good meal after a long day of work!. By the way, I have something good to share with you!"
Having said that, Zhang Miao took out a jug from his arms, and then filled Hizashi's cup with its contents.
"Sssh, let me tell you, Uncle Hizashi, this wine is the best in Konoha. It's refreshing and delicious. I don't take it out for most people. Please try it!"
"Uh..."
Looking at Zhang Miao's innocent face, Hizashi suddenly showed a hint of shock, "Ryu, you... you shouldn't be an adult yet, right?"
"What?"
Hearing Hizashi's question, Zhang Miao was stunned for a moment, but soon laughed,
"Haha, Uncle Hizashi, a person's maturity is not determined by appearance.
"The most important thing is the heart and mind! "
Zhang Miao was obviously secretly changing topics, and Hizashi also felt something was wrong, but he couldn't say anything and immediately frowned.
"That's true, but..."
"Oh, I know!" Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Miao waved at him,
"I can just do this! Transformation…"
As soon as Zhang Miao finished speaking, he transformed with a bang, and smiled at Hizashi.
"How about this?"
Looking at Zhang Miao's current appearance, Hizashi's eyes widened.
"Brother?"
It turned out that the person Zhang Miao became was none other than the head of the Hyuga clan, Hyuga Hiashi!
After a brief moment, Hizashi quickly regained his senses, and then showed a wry smile at Zhang Miao.
"Ryu, you are really... You should change back quickly, that's not a good thing to do in public."
"Hahaha!"
Hearing Hizashi's words, Zhang Miao immediately laughed and raised his wine cup while laughing.
"What are you saying Hizashi? We brothers haven't sat together like this for a long time, right? If you don't mind, just accompany me for a drink!"
"Uh..." Looking at the familiar face and in front of him, Hizashi knew that the other party was not his brother Hiashi, but he involuntarily raised his wine cup...
Maybe it was because of his long depression, or maybe Zhang Miao's transformation had brought back his old memories, Hizashi couldn't stop drinking after he started. He became drunk not long after that.
"Brother...Brother, I have a lot to say to you, I...I..."
As he spoke, Hizashi slid down from the table. Seeing this scene, the young Neji's eyes widened.
"Father!"
...
Hizashi was drunk, and was very drunk, so Zhang Miao brought him home, and then told Neji a few words before leaving the Hyuga settlement.
Zhang Miao didn't know that when he was leaving, the elders of the Hyuga clan were aggressively running to Hiashi to confront him.
"Hiashi, although you and Hizashi are brothers, but now you are a member of the main family! He is a from the branch family, and you hold an important position within the clan. How can you go out drinking with him?"
"Yeah, and he's still very drunk! What people would say to our clan seeing him like that?"
"Hiashi, we asked you to tell Hizashi and ask him to invite Tsunade-sama's son to come to the Hyuga clan. Why did you go drinking with him... I can't believe it..."
Hiashi: "..."
"What's going on? I didn't do anything!"
Haishi were immediately stunned by the clan elders' madness, but Zhang Miao, the instigator, returned to Yakiniku Q and waved his hand at the Lady Boss to order.
"Lady Boss, give me 80 plates of each type of meat. Today I'm going to break my personal record!"
Everyone: "..."
