Chapter 273

"I'll take care of Orochimaru..."

"By the way, father, when can you leave Konoha?"

Hyuga Hiashi said calmly: "Next month!"

"Next month I'm going to visit an old friend in the Land of Fire, and meet Orochimaru by the way."

In fact, from Hinata's previous description of Orochimaru, Hyuga Hiashi keenly discovered that Orochimaru actually had the idea of ​​cooperating with the Hyuga family, but...

But facing Hinata, this fool, Orochimaru simply couldn't make sense.

Orochimaru wanted to express it obscurely, but Hinata didn't understand at all. But Hinata's age was there, and Orochimaru couldn't bring himself to tell Hinata directly.

And with an old shady guy like Orochimaru cooperating, Hyuga Hiashi was not at ease to hand it over to Hinata.

"Father, how is your Sage Mode training going?" Hinata asked.

Hyuga Hiashi said slowly: "It's still a little short, but it's almost there!"

Although there is no environment of the Three Holy Lands, with Hinata's help to condense natural energy, Hyuga Hiashi can naturally practice the Sage Mode.

Hinata looked at Hyuga Hiashi coldly: Maybe his talent is too poor︿(￣︶￣)︿

After reporting the recent events, Hinata left Hyuga Hiashi's study.

After cooperating with Orochimaru, the affairs of the Hyuga family are also on the right track. For a long time to come, it will be difficult to have good things to improve the strength of the entire Hyuga clan.

According to the agreement between Hinata and Orochimaru, Orochimaru will provide the Hyuga clan with 100 "body-building pills" every month, and Hinata only provides one eye of Urashiki and a promise of future intelligence sharing.

One hundred "body-building pills" per month are enough for the Hyuga clan to improve the strength of 50 jonin.

In fact, the Hyuga clan does not really have 50 jonin, most of them are special jonin to make up the number.

However, after a period of time, these selected clansmen will truly have the strength of a jonin, or even an elite jonin.

If Hyuga Hiashi is more open-minded and willing to let these clansmen learn some soft fist secrets, then these fifty people will be enough to improve to the current strength of Hyuga Hiashi.

If they can master the Sage Mode...

Fifty Kage-level masters will be trained.

Chapter 421: Hyuga Family's Jonin Meeting

Having served as the patriarch of the Hyuga clan for decades, Hyuga Hiashi knows what is the most important thing for a ninja family.

Strong strength may make a family the target of public criticism.

Once powerful like the Senju and Uchiha, they have now become a name in history. On the contrary, small families such as Sarutobi and Ino-Shika-cho have established a firm foothold in Konoha.

The rise of Hinata is both an opportunity and a crisis for the Hyuga clan.

When Hinata is still there, the Hyuga clan can naturally be kept safe. But if Hinata is gone one day, the fate of the Uchiha clan may be a reference for the Hyuga clan.

This is not a groundless worry. The major ninja villages in the ninja world have been coveting the Byakugan for a long time, and the secrets of Hinata have made the whole ninja world flock to it.

Hyuga Hiashi has lamented Hinata's character more than once. Hinata's unreliable character is the best protection for Hinata.

This kind of protection can make Hinata grow up well.

And the fact is just as Hyuga Hiashi expected. When Hinata was still weak, both the third generation and Danzo had some intention to win over Hinata, instead of deliberately suppressing Hinata.

The fifth generation Hokage Tsunade is even more interested in training Hinata to become the sixth generation Hokage.

Today, Hinata has fully grown up. With Hinata's current strength, it is enough to keep the Hyuga clan worry-free for decades.

If he didn't know Hinata's plan, Hyuga Hiashi might still worry about how the Hyuga clan would protect themselves when Hinata was old and weak.

But now Hyuga Hiashi has higher ambitions.

When Hinata first mentioned her plan, Hyuga Hiashi's fear was far greater than his excitement. He didn't dare to gamble the fate of the entire Hyuga clan with Hinata for an uncertain future.

However, since the seeds have been planted, they will take root and sprout sooner or later.

Knowing so many ancient secrets, Hyuga Hiashi can't control his thoughts at all. Whenever Hyuga Hiashi is free, he can't help but think of the secrets that Hinata said.

At first, maybe he just thought about it occasionally, but the more he thought about it, Hyuga Hiashi began to unconsciously improve Hinata's plan.

Until today, Hyuga Hiashi has spared no effort to support Hinata.

When you are strong, but not strong enough, you can only rely on a stronger force and let your strength become part of the stronger force.

When your power is the strongest, but not strong enough, you can only continue to improve your power so that those who are chasing you can never reach you.

The Hyuga clan used to be the former, so Hyuga Hiashi chose to join the Hokage system to protect themselves. But now the Hyuga clan is the latter, so Hyuga Hiashi can only continue to improve the strength of the Hyuga clan and turn the current strength into eternity.

In the meeting room of the Hyuga family, Hyuga Hiashi stood in front of everyone, facing the fifty elite ninjas of the Hyuga clan.

The Hyuga family, known as the "strongest clan in Konoha", has nearly a thousand clan members and hundreds of registered ninjas, but there are less than twenty ninjas at the level of Jonin.

There are quite a few special Jonin, but the gap between special Jonin and Jonin is still huge.

The former is partial to a certain subject, while the latter is all-round.

"Today, we have called you all together to discuss a major event regarding the transformation of the Hyuga family."

Hyuga Hiashi looked serious and looked around at everyone.

Unlike other ninjas, perhaps because of the existence of the 'bird in the cage', Hyuga Hiashi has absolute authority in the family. The only ones who can check and balance Hyuga Hiashi are the elders of the Hyuga clan.

However, as Hinata began to grow up, Hyuga Hiashi's father gained absolute authority in the Hyuga clan because of his daughter's status.

The branch family did not dare to resist the main family at all. Even the branch family ninjas of the jonin level did not have much say when facing Hyuga Hiashi.

"This is a secret medicine that can improve physical fitness and chakra..."

Hyuga Hiashi took out the glass bottle containing the 'body-building pill'... Although Hinata had already named the pill, because the name 'body-building pill' was too shameful, Hinata finally buried the name 'body-building pill' in her heart.

"This secret medicine has no side effects. Depending on the individual's physique, the interval between two doses of medicine is also different..."

Hinata Hiashi roughly explained the effect of the 'body-building pill'.

"Although taking this secret medicine can improve the strength of the ninja, its fundamental purpose is to make the ninja's physique more suitable for natural energy, so as to practice the Sage Mode!"

With Hinata showing her great power in the ninja world, the Sage Mode is no longer a secret.

It's just that the conditions for practicing the Sage Mode are too harsh. According to the existing information in the ninja world, only Hinata has mastered the Sage Mode.

The expressions of the fifty elite ninjas of the Hyuga family were different. Although it was exciting to be able to practice the Sage Mode, it didn't seem very reliable to improve strength by taking secret medicine.

Although Hinata Hiashi kept saying that this secret medicine had no side effects, if taking the secret medicine could improve strength, then what was the point of practicing so hard?

"You are all the elites of our Hyuga clan. The future of the Hyuga clan depends on you..."

Hyuga Hiashi said solemnly: "Now our Hyuga clan is at the forefront of the storm. The eyes of the entire ninja world are focused on our Hyuga clan. If we are content with the status quo, sooner or later we will face a catastrophe."

"For the future of the Hyuga family, please make sure to improve your strength as soon as possible and achieve the Sage Mode as soon as possible!"

Although everyone present was a trusted confidant, Hyuga Hiashi did not tell Hinata's plan after all.

After all, this plan was too horrifying. Even if these people could keep it secret, it was hard to guarantee that they would not reveal flaws in their daily lives.

On the roof of the conference room, Hinata opened her eyes to ensure that no one was watching nearby.

However, for such a gathering of senior ninjas, the Konoha high-level must have known the news a long time ago. Maybe there were Konoha spies among the fifty people selected.

The brainwashing of the Will of Fire was still very effective. It was hard to guarantee that there would not be ninjas in the Hyuga family who regarded the village as more important than the family.

It's okay for the senior ninjas in the family to gather once or twice, but once the frequency increases, it's hard to guarantee that the Konoha high-level will not have some ideas.

However, after today, everyone has seen the effect of the "Body Forging Pill", and the later "Body Forging Pill" can be distributed secretly.

According to Orochimaru, an ordinary senior ninja must take the "Body Forging Pill" for at least two consecutive years to reach the level of practicing the Sage Mode.

But nothing is absolute.

Just like Orochimaru and Jiraiya, Orochimaru has no chance of practicing the Sage Mode, but Jiraiya, who is the last one, can practice the Sage Mode.

Hinata plans to use natural energy to test after a while to see if anyone among the fifty people is qualified to practice the Sage Technique.

Seeing that everyone has taken the "Body Forging Pill" and Hyuga Hiashi is ready to adjourn the meeting, Hinata leaves instantly and returns to her bedroom.

Orochimaru has already made arrangements. One month later, Hyuga Hiashi will meet with Orochimaru outside the village to discuss the next cooperation matters.

Hinata was too lazy to worry about such things. Anyway, with Hyuga Hiashi in front, Hinata could enjoy the corrupt life of a young lady with peace of mind.

Chapter 422 Hinata bribed by Shikamaru

The situation in the ninja world is always like a tree wanting to be quiet but the wind does not stop. After a few months of calm, Hinata accidentally heard a piece of news.

The Hidden Cloud Village intends to participate in the joint Chunin Exam held by the Hidden Sand Village in July. After several communications between the Raikage and the Wind Shadow, the Hidden Sand Village has agreed to the request of the Hidden Cloud Village.

Although the joint Chunin Exam of various countries is a rare event in the ninja world, it is only a Chunin Exam after all. Those who participate in the exam are only slightly outstanding Genin, and it is not worth the major ninja villages to pay too much attention.

The actions of the Hidden Cloud Village are really unexpected.

Konoha and the Hidden Sand Village are allies, and it is reasonable for the two countries to jointly hold the Chunin Exam. But the Hidden Cloud Village, the Hidden Rock Village, and the Hidden Mist Village have been playing their own games before. When the Hidden Cloud Village held the Chunin Exam, it never invited the surrounding small countries.

Konoha still doesn't know what exactly Sand Village considered when it agreed to the request of Kumogakure.

But Konoha has already made some guesses about what Kumogakure is thinking.

Kumogakure has done this before. After the Nine-Tails incident, Kumogakure sent envoys to Konoha. On the surface, it was to sign a peace agreement, but in fact, it was to take advantage of the Byakugan of the Hyuga family.

After the Five Kage Conference, the Raikage sent envoys to Iwagakure, and in the end, the two sides seemed to be very unhappy.

Although Konoha doesn't have much information, the purpose of the Hidden Cloud Village is obvious... The Hidden Cloud Village wants to gather four parts of the Impure World Reincarnation.

Now that Konoha is strong, the Raikage dare not attack Konoha, so he naturally sets his sights on the other three major ninja villages.

Although the Hidden Cloud Village has ill intentions, the Hidden Sand Village is the organizer of this joint Chunin Exam. Since the Hidden Sand Village has agreed, Konoha naturally can't say much.

"This is the situation!"

In the barbecue restaurant, Shikamaru rested his cheek with one hand, looking bored.

"If you want to stop the Hidden Cloud Village's conspiracy, you must rely on the power of the Byakugan!" Shikamaru said solemnly.

Hinata rolled her eyes speechlessly.

"You can find someone else! Why don't I introduce Tokuma to you? He's a jonin from the Hyuga family and very powerful!"

Shikamaru sighed with a sad face, pouted his lips, and said with a look of contempt: "Jonin! If the Hidden Cloud Village takes any action, it may be difficult to stop it with only the jonin."

"And once we start a battle with the Kumo Ninja in the Hidden Sand Village, I'm afraid the Hidden Sand Village will also hold us responsible in Konoha, and maybe the Hidden Cloud Village will bite us back."

At this point, Shikamaru stared at Hinata with a pair of dead fish eyes.

"But you are different!"

"Hinata, if you go, the Hidden Cloud Village will not dare to act rashly."

'Sizzle...'

Hinata picked up the grilled meat, dipped it in the sauce, put it in her mouth and ate it with a 'smacking' sound.

"I don't want to go to the Sand Village and eat sand!"

"Even if you treat me to a barbecue, I will never go! The wind and sand in the sky will affect the quality of my skin!"

"Look at me!"

Hinata turned her face to let Shikamaru take a closer look at her fair and delicate skin.

"Think about Temari again... The quality of our skin is completely in a different dimension, okay!"

Shikamaru put a bulging wallet on the table and said with a frank and lenient attitude: "I am the person in charge of this joint Chunin Exam. If something goes wrong in the exam, I will take a lot of responsibility."

"Hinata, we grew up together, you won't ignore me, right!"

Hinata: Don't make it sound like we are childhood sweethearts!

Shikamaru continued to tempt: "If you agree, you can eat whatever you want in the Sand Village!"

Hinata: "..."

Hinata rolled her eyes. This little favor could never impress Hinata. As the heir of the Hyuga clan, how could Hinata care about the money for a few big meals?

But despite this, Hinata was still a little moved.

It's not that Hinata is spineless, but it feels really good to be treated by others. It's not just the feeling of enjoying delicious food, but a kind of satisfaction from the soul.
