NOVEL NEXT Chapter 147: Speculations about Kaguya's clan
In the northeastern part of the Land of Fire, a figure walked forward unhurriedly.
Shigeru's targets, the Hyuga clan and the Kaguya clan, are located in the northeastern part of the Land of Fire.
However, the Hyuga clan is located further north, south of the Land of Rice Fields, while the Kaguya clan is located further east, southwest of the Iron Kingdom.
Originally, Shigeru's first target was the Hyuga clan.
After all, among this generation, the young leader of the Hyuga clan, Hyuga Tenjin, is said to be very talented.
In his previous life, there were rumors among the Naruto fandom, that Hyuga Tenjin was the most powerful person under Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara.
When Konoha was first started or before it was established, it was said that Hyuga Tenjin had a falling out with the Raikage. As a result, the Raikage was injured and fled back to the Land of Thunder, and Kumogakure often suffered losses against the Byakugan on the battlefield, so it began to covet the Byakugan.
Although he doesn't know if this rumor is true or not, he can still imagine Hyuga Tenjin's strength.
[Translator's note: Where did this information come from? I've read the manga several times and I don't remember reading about this.]
Therefore, if Shigeru wants to unify the world, Hyuga Tenjin will definitely be a good helper.
However, Shigeru thought about this idea for a while and then gave up. After all, it was too difficult to succeed with the Hyuga clan.
Coming to the gate rashly will only arouse people's vigilance, therefore, if Shigeru wants to turn Hyuga Tenjin into one of his own, he can only wait for an opportunity outside and take advantage of Hyuga Tenjin's exit, get close to him and use the subordinate talent point.
But in this case a problem can easily arise.
If Shigeru wants to make Hyuga Tenjin one of his own while he's away, he needs to know when the other person will come out.
However, Shigeru has no internal contacts in the Hyuga family. If he wants to know this matter, he can only monitor the Hyuga clan himself to obtain information about Hyuga Tenjin's outings.
But the Hyuga clan's Byakugan isn't just for aesthetics, isn't that a flea on the head of the monk five miles away?
The Hyuga clan could find him just by opening their eyes.
In order for Shigeru to use the subordinate talent point, he first has to make the other person not hostile towards him.
And if he is caught spying on the entire Hyuga clan, it would be strange if the Hyuga clan doesn't want to kill him.
Thus, after some consideration, Shigeru resolutely abandoned planning on the Hyuga clan and instead prepared to go for the Kaguya clan.
"Speaking of which, before I was reincarnated, the Kaguya clan in the manga was clearly a big clan in the Land of Water. How come they're in the Land of Fire now?" Shigeru muttered softly as he hurried over.
After all, he is a Naruto fan, and he will never mistake the fact that the Kaguya clan is a powerful clan from the Land of Water.
He even remembered very clearly that the Kaguya clan launched a rebellion and attacked Kirigakure, and was exterminated by the Fourth Mizukage.
But now, how is it that the Kaguya clan is one of the three major ninja clans in the Land of Fire?
However, when he thought about it, the Kaguya clan and the Hyuga clan are allies.
But, if the Hyuga clan and the Kaguya clan were in the Land of Fire and the Land of Water respectively, how could they be allies.
The only possibility is that the Kaguya clan was originally a large clan in the Land of Fire, later due to some unknown reasons, the Kaguya clan had to move to the Land of Water.
"But what is the reason that forces the Kaguya clan, a first-class ninja clan, to move to the Land of Water?" Shigeru couldn't help but think about this question.
First of all, one thing that is certain is that the Kaguya clan definitely did not move to the Land of Water on their own initiative.
After all, the land of water is not the most pleasant place.
The Land of Water is shrouded in fog all year round, the sun is in a hazy state for most of the year, in addition, the Land of Water is mostly made up of islands and the land is barren, making it very difficult for crops to grow.
Also, unless your ancestors have lived in that place for generations, outsiders can easily get sick if they live in this place for a long time.
Therefore, unless the Kaguya clan is crazy, they will never take the initiative to move out of the Land of Fire, which is rich in products and has a pleasant climate.
After all, when moving from the Land of Fire to the Land of Water, one not only has to face a harsh natural environment, but also has to compete for resources and living space with local families from the Land of Water, such as Hōzuki, Yuki, Suikazan and other clans.
Thinking of this, Shigeru gradually frowned, "What is the reason that can force the Kaguya clan, a powerful clan in the Fire Country, to voluntarily move away from the Fire Country?" Shigeru thought of that big question.
"Could it be that the Kaguya clan was jointly defeated by the Senju clan and the Uchiha clan?" Regarding this speculation, the more Shigeru thought about it, the more likely it was.
After all, the Kaguya and Hagoromo clans are among the top-class ninja clans. The Hagoromo clan was attacked by the Senju, Sarutobi, and Shimura clans and survived. There is no reason why the Kaguya clan would be defeated by the Senju or Uchiha clan individually.
Although the Hagoromo clan was able to survive back then, it was because the Uchiha clan held most of the Senju clan's power, and Shigeru was reincarnated, allowing the Hagoromo clan to survive, but let's not forget that the Kaguya clan had help from the Hyuga clan.
If one of the Senju or Uchiha clans attacks the Kaguya clan, it will not be a problem for the Kaguya clan to join forces with the Hyuga to contain the opponent. Only when the Senju and Uchiha join forces to attack the Kaguya clan will the Hyuga clan have no choice but to stand idly by and watch, eventually letting the Kaguya clan be pushed into the sea.
After all, if the two super clans Senju and Uchiha join forces, no ninja clan in the ninja world can withstand their attack, not even if the two first-class ninja clans Hyuga and Kaguya join forces.
If the Hyuga clan takes action in this situation, the only result will be to accompany the Kaguya clan to the sea and live in exile in the Land of Water.
Therefore, based on this speculation, it makes sense that after the establishment of the Ninja Villages, the two allied clans Hyuga and Kaguya, one became a major clan of Kirigakure of the Land of Water, and the other became a major family of Konoha of the Land of Fire.
"If I put it this way, won't the Kaguya clan face a situation worse than the genocide crisis the Hagoromo clan faced in previous years?" Shigeru couldn't help but rub his chin and muttered.
