In Konoha, in a guest room, Kimimaro and Shiro were sitting there kneeling and waiting quietly.
After a while, the door was gently pushed open, Yu Ye walked in, then closed the door and walked aside to sit down.
"Lord Yuye, you are back."
"Um."
Yu Ye nodded, picked up a cup of tea on the table and took a sip, then showed a thoughtful expression, as if he was thinking about something.
Seeing this, Shiro and Kimimaro didn't dare to disturb Yu Ye and sat quietly aside.
Yu Ye pondered for a while before coming back to his senses. He suddenly showed a smiling expression and said: "Since you have already taken action, let's help to the end. There is no reason to do things half-heartedly."
Kimimaro and Shiro looked at each other, both showing expressions of confusion. It was obvious that Naito's words were not addressed to them, but to himself.
…
The sun shines on a square, and rows of reflections appear on the ground.
In this square, there seemed to be a smell of gunpowder smoke and gunpowder, and the crowd was vaguely divided into three parties.
On one side were the ninjas of Kumogakure. At this time, each of them looked evil and aggressive.
On the other side, there were the Konoha ninjas led by Sarutobi Hiruzen, all with gloomy expressions on their faces.
The last party, standing on the side, are all members of the Hyuga clan, and the leader is the leader of the Hyuga clan, Hyuga Hizashi.
At this time, Hinata was hiding weakly behind Hinata and Hinata. The fierce momentum of both parties in the field made her a little scared.
Hinata's appearance made some of the elders of the Hyuga clan frown. She didn't look like a legitimate daughter of the clan. How would she inherit the Hyuga clan in the future
However, Hinata is still young after all, only three years old. Maybe she will get better as she grows up in the future.
"You Konoha must give us an explanation for this matter no matter what!"
The ninja led by Kumogakure spoke sharply to Hiruzen Sarutobi. Under normal circumstances, Hiruzen Sarutobi would have had an attack long ago, but at this time, he could only frown.
Glancing at Hinata Hinashi standing aside, Sarutobi Hiruzen said solemnly: "What do you want to explain?"
"Hand over the murderer!"
The ninja led by Kumogakure sneered, looked at Hinata Hizashi on the side, and said: "Our leader died in Konoha, let alone you Konoha can't even hand over the murderer!"
"If this is the case, then we Kumogakure will not hesitate to fight Konoha again."
Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned when he heard that the Kumogakure ninja kept talking about starting a war. This matter was really difficult for him to handle.
Although Konoha is not afraid of the Kumo ninja if a war really breaks out, at this time, once a war breaks out, the price is a bit too high.
After Konoha experienced the death of Namikaze Minato, Orochimaru's defection and other events, its strength has been weakened too much, and it is difficult to crush Kumogakure, at most it will have the upper hand.
Once a fight breaks out, it will most likely be the Fourth Ninja War. Although Sarutobi Hiruzen estimates that Kumogakure will not dare to start a fight, he still cannot bet on such a thing because he cannot afford it.
After all, Kumogakure's ninja leader died in Konoha. No matter what his purpose was, Kumogakure now denies all the blame and only acknowledges the fact that he died in Konoha.
Before, Kumogakure made a lot of unreasonable demands, all of which were firmly rejected by Hiruzen Sarutobi. If he wanted to impose some harsh conditions on Konoha, it was impossible for Hiruzen Sarutobi to accept them.
But now, after hearing that Kumogakure's request had turned into handing over the murderer, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt a slight movement in his heart.
The thing is already very clear. It was probably the ninja leader of Kumogakure who had the idea of rolling his eyes, and was killed by the ninjas of the Hyuga clan.
Since the matter happened to the Hyuga clan, let the Hyuga clan hand over a 'murderer'. On the one hand, this matter can be solved, and on the other hand, it can weaken the strength of the Hyuga clan, killing two birds with one stone.
Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen turned to look at Hinata Hiashi, and said in a deep voice: "Hizu, things have become like this, you Hyuga clan must give an explanation... You should be the one who killed the person."
After Konoha's ninjas arrived, only Hinata Hizu was holding Hinata. It is not difficult to infer that Hinata Hizu directly killed the Kumogakure ninja leader in order to save his daughter.
Although Kumogakure's ninjas quickly arrived at the scene and recovered the body of the Kumogakure ninja leader, they were unable to check the specific circumstances of death, but it seemed that the body was completely broken, a bit like the effect of a soft punch.
In this way, it is basically completely determined.
"I didn't kill the person."
Hyuga Hizu faced Sarutobi Hiruzen and spoke in a deep voice.
"quibble!"
"You were clearly the one who killed our leader!"
The ninjas of Kumogakure shouted angrily at Hinata Hinata. Hinata Hinata's expression was gloomy, but Hinata standing next to him was a little frightened. She hid behind Hinata Hinata and held onto Hinata Hinata tightly with her little hands. The corners of his clothes looked pitiful.
Hinata Hizashi didn't have time to comfort Hinata, and looked at the Kumogakure ninjas with a cold face, saying: "If you didn't kill him, you didn't kill him. We, the Hyuga clan, have not dared to admit what we did! "
"Then tell me who killed him!"
"That's right, then point out one!"
The ninjas of Kumogakure sneered. They had foreseen such a scene for a long time, and they were fully aware of the poor relationship between Konoha's top management and major families.
This time, I just want to see Sarutobi Hiruzen force Hyuga Hizu to reveal a murderer. If Hyuga Hizu wants to shirk, it depends on whether Sarutobi Hiruzen agrees. After all, this is an opportunity to weaken the Hyuga clan.
"Hizu! The only people present at the time were you and Hinata. You can't say that Hinata killed someone!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Hinata and Hinata coldly, his attitude becoming extremely tough.
The ninjas of Kumogakure also followed Sarutobi Hiruzen and looked at Hinata Hinashi coldly. For a moment, all the momentum seemed to be condensed and pressed down on Hinata Hinashi.
An ordinary person would have collapsed under this kind of momentum, but Hyuga Hizu is the leader of the Hyuga clan, and he has confidence in his heart, but he is not moved at all.
"Kill our leader, even if you are the leader of the Hyuga clan, you must pay with your life! You can't say that this little girl killed our leader." The Kumo ninjas shouted sharply at Hinata Hizashi.
"I didn't kill the person."
Hinata Hiashi spoke in a deep voice again. He stood there and couldn't help but have a headache. It was completely meaningless to move Naito out at this time. Not to mention whether the people present believed it or not, even if they believed it, they might offend Naito because of it. , but the gain outweighs the loss.
He didn't know what to do, whether to move out of Yu Ye or continue to resist.
Yun Ren looked at Hinata and Hinata with a cold face. Some people even took out their weapons and began to step forward slowly, saying: "It wasn't you? Who killed it? You have to give us an explanation! No matter who it is, Those who kill must pay with their lives!”
Facing the menacing Kumo ninja, Hinata, who was behind Hinata Hinata, grabbed the corners of Hyuga Hinata's clothes with her little hands. She watched these Kumo ninjas press on her father step by step. She was only three years old, and her little face was The expression was full of fright and fear, and looked very pitiful.
And at this moment, without any sound, a hand suddenly gently placed on her little head and touched her little head, as if to comfort her.
This hand was not Hinata Hinashi's, but came from behind her.
Hinata was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but turn her head to look. She immediately saw a figure who didn't know when she appeared behind her.
There seemed to be a natural and gentle aura about this figure. Although she didn't recognize it, it somehow made her feel calmer.
"do not be afraid."
Naito smiled at Hinata, then walked past her and came to the front, his eyes lightly scanning all the Kumo ninjas.
There was silence.
At the moment when Yu Ye appeared, everyone's movements and expressions suddenly froze!
