The Hyuga Shall Stand Above, In The Heavens!

Hyuga clan's territory, Patriarch's residence.

The Hyuga brothers had long been accustomed to Patriarch Hitoshi's occasional chuunibyou tendencies.

But this time, they truly didn't understand.

"Patriarch, forgive my ignorance, but when you say 'go to the sky,' do you mean...?" 

Hyuga Hiashi asked tentatively, pointing upwards, unsure if the sky he thought of was the same as what Hitoshi meant.

"No need to doubt, the Hyuga clan's stable homeland is in the sky," Hyuga Hitoshi said calmly. It was time to tell his right-hand men about the origin of the Hyuga clan and some trivial matters from a thousand years ago, so he wouldn't have to explain to the clan members after reaching the moon.

"A thousand years ago, that beautiful woman Otsutsuki Kaguya descended into the ninja world..."

Patriarch Hitoshi organized his thoughts and began to tell the epic story of Otsutsuki Black Zetsu's mission to save his mother in front of the Hyuga brothers.

But as he spoke with enthusiasm, Hyuga Hiashi and Hyuga Hizashi listened in shock.

In the corner, Hatake Kakashi's face gradually twisted.

What did he, Hatake Kakashi, do to deserve this?

Why was he qualified to hear these secrets of the ninja world?

And why on earth was Hyuga Hitoshi discussing escape plans right in front of him?

To be honest, Kakashi now wishes he could deafen himself!

He feels that by the time the three Hyuga brothers finish discussing the details, he might be silenced.

However, even though Kakashi wants to deafen himself, he can't help but listen carefully to those things from a thousand years ago.

The Ancestor of Chakra. The Goddess of the Moon's Infinite Tsukuyomi

A filial son seals his own mother, and the moon is just a sealing container?

The Hyuga clan is actually the bloodline left on Earth by the younger brother of the Sage of Six Paths, while the Senju, Uchiha, and even Uzumaki clans are all descendants of the Sage of Six Paths? The Shikotsumyaku of the Kaguya clan is not the final version?

Kakashi feels he can't understand this world anymore.

Naturally, he doesn't understand that the ninja world is completely a cycle, and these filial sons are unusually aggressive towards their parents and teachers.

"In short, if we really discuss it, the Otsutsuki clan on the moon are our relatives. We are all descendants of Otsutsuki Hamura, and no one is nobler than the other."

"Our relatives are now on the verge of fighting between the main family and the branch family over a small matter. As fellow descendants of Hamura, we have the duty and responsibility to go and mediate! To stop this war!"

"And to prevent disputes in the future, after stopping the conflict, they will definitely be grateful and willingly put on the caged bird seal, allowing us to control them!"

Hyuga Hitoshi said righteously.

"Moreover, they have been guarding Kaguya's seal on the moon for over a thousand years on behalf of Otsutsuki Hamura. They have suffered enough. Now, our Hyuga clan should take on this responsibility, letting our brother clan put down their heavy burden and live a good life."

"As for them keeping an eye on the development of the ninja world? Supervising the world created by the Sage of Six Paths? That's unnecessary! After all, we are the clan that has survived in the ninja world for a thousand years. We have more say! This is our own job, no need to trouble our relatives!"

"So, I believe our relatives will be very pleased to hand over the moon and silently support us!"

Well said!

Clap clap clap!

Hyuga Ushiuma, who didn't understand at all, was the first to applaud.

Hyuga Hiashi and Hyuga Hizashi, who understood a third of it, also recovered from their shock and expressed their approval of the Patriarch's decision.

Indeed.

You guys have all been developing steadily for a thousand years, so it's time for our Hyuga clan to develop for a while too.

Who knows how the Hyuga clan has survived this thousand years, we are all descendants of Hamura, it's only fair that the wheel of fortune turns.

"Patriarch, I understand the reasoning, but if we gather the elite to go to the moon, what if the village keeps an eye on us?"

Hyuga Hizashi raised his question.

He could use the excuse of establishing a new clan land to mobilize people, but there would still be some commotion. If it attracts the attention of the higher-ups, it might hinder the Patriarch's plan.

"No problem."

Patriarch Hitoshi said it wasn't a big deal.

"My brother will soon step forward to give the old village chief some trouble, he won't have the leisure to keep an eye on us."

Brother Fugaku is quite reliable in this regard.

Having been outmaneuvered by the old village chief in the meeting, he will definitely find a way to regain his ground.

If Fugaku had to endure before the fallout, he would have done so. But now that the conflict between the Uchiha and the higher-ups was out in the open, and with the Hyuga's support behind the Uchiha, if he still didn't dare to charge forward, the radical Uchiha youths wouldn't tolerate this Patriarch. It wouldn't be surprising if even Itachi himself took action against his own father.

After all, Fugaku didn't have the charismatic aura to command the clan's obedience just by his presence. He had to show Uchiha's toughness to gain recognition.

"By the way, Ushiuma, take some time to learn this. You'll need it when you go to the moon."

Hyuga Hitoshi rummaged through his things and pulled out a scroll, tossing it to Hyuga Ushiuma.

This was the Orochimaru-style disguise technique he had snatched from Mr. Snake earlier. After being improved by Hitoshi, it was almost indistinguishable from the real thing.

Although everyone had the innate advantage of the Byakugan, making it easy to blend clan members in, Hyuga Hitoshi strived for perfection.

A brief higher-ups meeting completed the future planning for the Hyuga clan.

Hyuga Ushiuma, Hyuga Hiashi, and Hyuga Hizashi each had their roles.

With time tight and tasks heavy, they bid farewell to Hitoshi and began their intensive preparations.

As they left, only Hyuga Hitoshi and the ear-plugging Kakashi remained in the room.

In the grand hall that showcased noble demeanor, the atmosphere was somewhat silent.

In the end, Kakashi couldn't withstand the pressure. He looked up at Patriarch Hitoshi above.

"Hitoshi-sama."

After several days of exhaustion, Kakashi looked very haggard, but at this moment, his eyes were unusually bright.

"About the Nine-Tails incident..."

If anyone could give him an answer, it would be Hyuga Hitoshi in this village.

After all, it was he who discovered that the eye controlling the Nine-Tails belonged to Obito, and the aura matched the transplanted Sharingan.

"It was Obito."

"It was him personally, not someone else using his Sharingan. My eyes saw it clearly."

Hyuga Hitoshi calmly gave his answer, even though he knew this answer would make Kakashi even more desperate.

It really was Obito.

Kakashi felt his heart stop beating.

He clenched his fists tightly, unable to accept this answer!

"Why?"

On the verge of collapse, Kakashi knelt on the ground. He couldn't imagine what reason Obito had to harm his own teacher and his wife. If it was because of Rin, he should have killed himself!

After a long time.

Hyuga Hitoshi slowly stood up and walked step by step to Kakashi.

The man did not answer his question.

Kakashi only saw a large hand, with the warmth belonging to Patriarch Hitoshi, placed on his head.

"So, Kakashi..."

"Are you interested in seeing the real world with this me?"

A brief moment of distraction.

Kakashi suddenly smiled.

He could see clearly that behind this man was an endless abyss.

At this moment, he felt a deadly attraction from the abyss.

Well.

Being in the darkness doesn't seem so bad!
