Early the next morning, Hyuga Kyou, who was doing morning exercises, heard the rumors that the Patriarch was attacked, which also confirmed that the flesh and blood tissue sent by Orochimaru yesterday was indeed Hyuga Hyuzu.
Although there has been speculation for a long time, Hyuga Kyou is inevitably a little disappointed when he thinks that Orochimaru can casually injure the number one strongman of the Hyuga family, although there must be a sneak attack element in it.
According to Hyuga mirror's own feelings, it is too difficult for a member of the Hyuga family to reach the height of Sannin through regular practice.
What's more, when it comes to talent, Hyuga mirror is obviously in the mediocre category, which can be seen from the number of activations of his special gene sequence.
For ordinary Hyuga people, 20 or so of the 33 sets of special gene sequences are generally active. For example, Hyuga Hizuru can even reach 28 groups, while Hyuga Kyou himself has only 17 groups that are active, which is significantly less than the average level of the family.
If it goes on step by step, especially Jonin may be the end of Hinata mirror's life.
Regarding the specific details of Hyuga Nichizu's attack, the Zong family kept secret.
At this point, Hyuga Kyou speculates that when he was attacked, Hinata Hyuzu realized the identity of Orochimaru, and Orochimaru is a disciple of the third generation, one of the Sannin, not only has a high position and authority, but also has a sensitive identity, so in the face of such difficult troubles, the clan must have not reached an agreement internally, and naturally kept silent to the outside world.
"Oshemaru dares to take the initiative against the family, obviously he is not afraid of revealing his identity. This also confirms my guess. Oroshemaru has indeed completed the preparations before defecting and can be launched at any time."
After thinking about it for a while, Hyuga Kyou became even more convinced that Orochimaru was about to defect.
Orochimaru's defection has both advantages and disadvantages for Hyuga Kyou. The advantage is naturally the removal of a mountain that is pressing on him, and the disadvantage is the loss of a thigh to protect him.
"Those who knew that I participated in the human experiment, except for Orochimaru, died in the war. As long as there is no accident with Orochimaru, the village should not be able to find me."
Several people who took refuge in Orochimaru at the same time as Hyuga Kyou died in the war one after another. After being transferred to the rear, because of the particularity of Baiyan, Hyuga Kyou has been conducting experiments in an independent laboratory, so he has no intersection with other testers under Orochimaru. No one knows the experimental project he is responsible for except for Orochimaru himself.
After checking all the hidden dangers in his heart, Hyuga Kagami continued his morning exercise calmly, as if it had nothing to do with him.
For the next few days, the village was peaceful, until the third night, an Anbe wearing a fox mask suddenly appeared at Hyuga Kyou's home and escorted him to a temporary base of Anbe.
The base is located in the northwest corner of the village. It has a large area and is very heavily guarded. There are as many as seven or eight teams of Anbu guards that Hyuga Kyou found.
After being escorted into a single room, Hyuga Kyou frowned slightly.
The house was very small, without any furnishings, and a solid iron fence was installed outside the house. Not only that, there was actually an Anbu outside the fence acting as a guard.
Such an arrangement is more appropriate to call it a temporary prison than a temporary base.
Undoubtedly, if the Anbu who are directly under Hokage can mobilize so many people, it means that Orochimaru should have officially defected, and the time may be today, or even tonight.
With the talent of white eyes, Hyuga mirror calmly observed everything in the temporary prison.
Hyuga mirror was not the first batch of ninjas to be taken here, nor was it the last batch. After him, there are still many ninjas who were taken here one after another.
The imprisoned ninjas, without exception, were all subordinates of Orochimaru. There were hundreds of them in total, and several of them were elite jounin who were well-known in the village.
But this is not unusual. During the war, Orochimaru served as the commander of many troops successively. Over the years, it is not surprising that there are hundreds of old troops. After all, in a village mobilized for war, there are tens of thousands of ninjas. If there are not even hundreds of subordinates, Orochimaru is not qualified to compete with the fourth generation for the position of Hokage.
Hundreds of detainees and a considerable number of guards made this temporary prison noisy.
Not everyone is like Hyuga Kyou, who knows what happened. Among the hundreds of Orochimaru’s subordinates who were detained, many of them didn’t know about Orochimaru’s defection, so they expressed great dissatisfaction and indignation at being detained here for no reason.
It wasn't until the third generation showed up that the noise gradually subsided.
Now that the fourth generation has just come to power, the third generation is still responsible for managing many affairs in the village, and even in the eyes of many ninjas, the third generation is still habitually treated as Hokage.
Under the auspices of the third generation, the screening work started quickly.
The first to be screened and censored were undoubtedly the elite jnin who were not bad at strength. As for the chunin who were temporarily promoted during the war like Hyuga mirror, they would definitely not be able to take care of them for a while.
Three days passed in a flash.
Although he has self-knowledge and knows that his kind of wartime ninja was exceptionally promoted to meet the needs of war, his actual strength is only at the level of a senior ninja, so he will not receive much attention.
But being detained for three full days, but no one cared, Hyuga Kyou's dissatisfaction slowly accumulated in his heart.
There is no doubt that the screening work in the village did not go smoothly. Many detainees did not believe that Orochimaru, one of the Sannin, would defect, so they did not cooperate with the review.
On whether to use torture, the village's senior management also has differences.
After all, it was just a simple interrogation, and it was difficult to identify which of the detainees participated in the human experiment of Orochimaru and which were the undercover agents left by Orochimaru. You must know that these ninjas in custody have received strict anti-interrogation training, and have just experienced the baptism of a war, so they are not fledgling rookies.
But once torture is used, the involvement is too great, and it is not just one or two people who are detained, but hundreds of people. It is obviously not a wise choice to execute hundreds of heroes who have just won the war for the village because Orochimaru defected alone.
On the fifth day after Hyuga Kyou was detained, Danzo appeared in the temporary prison.
Danzo visited the detainees one by one, and didn't know what they talked about. In short, when Danzo left, he took most of them with him.
"They were bewitched by Danzo and joined the roots!"
Without thinking about it, Hyuga Kyou guessed the result.
If torture cannot be used to screen them one by one, then these Jnin in custody are undoubtedly the biggest unrest factor in the village, so allowing Danzo to recruit them into the root becomes the only option for the village.
These Jnin who were in custody obviously also expected their situation in the village. As the old department of Orochimaru, the possibility of being accepted by the fourth generation is very small. The fourth generation is still so young, and may be in power for 20 to 30 years. If they don't find a backer in time, they feel that their life in the village will not be easy, so entering the root independent of the fourth generation has become their best choice right now.
In the next few days, someone from Genbu invited Hyuga Kageo to join Genbu, but Hyuga Kage politely refused. In his opinion, even defecting was better than joining Genbu, a precarious organization that specializes in dirty work.
Fortunately, the root people didn't embarrass Hyuga Kyou, and left readily after being rejected.
Since the village allowed Danzo to recruit so many detaining zhongnin, he would not allow him to extend his hand to the detaining zhongnin too much, so Genbu's recruitment of detaining zhongnin was more like a routine, which is why Hyuga mirror dared to refuse.
