The Hyuga Shall Stand Above, In The Heavens!

Chapter 57: Chapter 57: Regrets Under the Siege.



"Brother Hitoshi, you are this!"

In the Hyuga clan, the old clan grounds.

Inside the Patriarch's separate courtyard.

Uchiha Fugaku, full of admiration, gave Hyuga Hitoshi a thumbs up.

As one of the village elders who witnessed Tsunade's temper during the Second Great Ninja War, he truly respected Hyuga Hitoshi from the bottom of his heart.

In the entire Konohagakure, no one dared to pick up Tsunade and carry her back to boast about it, and the way it was done was so perfect it was shocking.

Didn't you see Tsunade's face turn red, buried behind Hyuga Hitoshi?

How strong must one be?

And it's said that not only did Hitoshi pick up Tsunade, but he also brought back a mysterious woman, and he's not shy about his harem at all.

What's more terrifying is that Hyuga Pakura just glared at the Hitoshi brothers and didn't even bother to say a word, truly a master at handling women!

"Cough, brother, you've got it all wrong."

Hyuga Hitoshi tried hard to clear his name.

What a joke, Tsunade lowering her head and hiding her face, was that shyness?

That was because she couldn't face returning to Konohagakure after being taken down by Kumogakure Village's elite squad in seconds, and it wasn't a good look to spread around.

"No need to explain, brother, I get it! And I'm not jealous."

Fugaku shook his head indifferently, he really had nothing to be jealous of, after all, he had lost everything and was now happily living a simple life with the old village chief, full of energy.

You don't know anything.

Hyuga Hitoshi believed in clearing his own name, he couldn't be bothered to explain.

But this time Fugaku came over, clearly not just to chat. After looking around, he leaned in with a slightly serious expression.

"Brother, there's trouble."

In fact, while Hyuga Hitoshi was on the moon, Fugaku had come looking for him a few times, but Patriarch Hitoshi, busy with important matters, didn't want to waste energy dealing with Konohagakure's situation and indeed missed some information.

"When I came back, I saw that the situation in the Land of Fire was indeed off, the old village chief seems even more useless than I imagined."

Hyuga Hitoshi frowned as well.

On the way back, he even reflected on whether he had trusted the original story too much and overlooked the old village chief's true level.

After all, this is the real world, the original story can only be a reference, especially now that he has messed up the plot, he needs to be more aware of changes.

"Brother, oh brother, it was a trap!"

Uchiha Fugaku, full of regret, stood up and patted Hyuga Hitoshi on the shoulder.

"Who would have thought, Danzo's scheme even fooled you, and I didn't take it seriously at first!"

Huh?

Hyuga Hitoshi slowly typed out a question mark, the seriousness on his face instantly vanished, replaced by an eagerness to get to the bottom of things.

Keeping a low profile among the clan members comes with gains and losses.

The relocation of the clan land and the return of the frontline clan members would cause a delay in Hyuga Hitoshi's news.

It's not that the contingency plan didn't work, it was simply his own negligence, Yuuhi Shinku wouldn't feel confident leaking information without seeing him in person.

Plus, with the "heaven rewards the diligent" effect of those ten days being so extraordinary, Hyuga Hitoshi didn't want to waste a single moment, staying in seclusion. Ushiuma and the two brothers were also too busy on the moon to spare any time.

Luckily, this time it wasn't a big issue. Next time he leaves, he'll definitely leave behind a few shadow clones as "phones." There's no safer way to pass on information than the self-destructing shadow clones.

"My informant at the front line told me that Danzo, in order to win the war, came up with three brilliant strategies."

Fugaku, with a grave expression, said that even the Hitoshi brothers hadn't guessed Konohagakure's retreat intentions, so damn sure the Raikage wouldn't see it either.

Isn't this indicating that Danzo's tactics are already working?

Danzo's strategies deserve respect!

Hyuga Hitoshi quickly stuffed sunflower seeds into his mouth, signaling Fugaku to spill the details quickly.

"First, Danzo believes that instead of being continuously suppressed and slowly losing ground, it's better to retreat directly to the heartland of the Land of Fire! Extend the defensive line of Kumogakure Village on our own!"

Fugaku sighed, calling this move too clever.

Hyuga Hitoshi nodded respectfully, agreeing that Danzo-sama's "cede land to lure the enemy" tactic was very successful. Now the Land of Fire is almost completely engulfed in war, with no place of peace left, almost leading to Tsunade being captured alive. To be honest, he should thank Danzo-sama for the benefits arranged for him.

"Second, he went personally to the Land of Earth, striving to persuade Tsuchikage to send troops to help! It's said that Iwagakure Village has already gathered a large number of ninjas to attack Kumogakure Village from behind via the Land of Thunder!"

Fugaku sighed slightly, guessing that Iwagakure Village must have already made their move, right?

This is definitely a great achievement. Who knows if the Uchiha will still have a chance to enter the battlefield.

Looking up at the silent Hyuga Hitoshi, Fugaku's face was bitter.

Indeed, even the Hitoshi brothers were awed by Danzo's boldness!

"Third, Danzo proposed that we could select suitable people to surrender voluntarily, take the opportunity to drug the Eight-Tails, and make it go berserk!"

Uchiha Fugaku looked up at the figure who hurried into the courtyard and whispered.

"The Third Hokage met with Kakashi today. It's clear he intends to pressure Kakashi, either give the Sharingan to the Third Hokage to choose someone, or go to your death."

It's definitely a death mission!

If the Eight-Tails goes berserk, a quick check of those close to it will reveal who did it, and then you're guaranteed to be slaughtered out of spite.

This mission is completely a one-way ticket to death.

But with just a word from the old village chief about doing it for the village, would you say you're going or not?

In reality, to make the Eight-Tails go berserk, Orochimaru's medicine alone is enough. Do we really need Obito's eyes? By the time everyone's dead, would you know if those eyes had any effect?

To put it bluntly, it's all about targeting Obito's eyes; they don't feel safe with the eyes staying with Kakashi.

"Brother, with these three strategies, I think the time for the Third Hokage to turn the tide with Danzo's help isn't far off. We need to prepare early."

Fugaku had to start thinking ahead. After the old village chief settled the war and secured his position, how would he deal with the Uchiha clan?

Your intelligence really fluctuates.

Hyuga Hitoshi gave Fugaku a deep look.

Indeed, forming a deep alliance with the Uchiha clan was too risky.

Big brother, shouldn't you be considering how to deal with the old chief's suppression after his victory? Shouldn't you be pondering whether to surrender after Konohagakure's complete defeat?

The original story barely held up against Kumogakure Village, and now with Iwagakure Village added, is there even a need to fight this war?

"Let's surrender."

Hyuga Hitoshi couldn't hold back anymore and took the initiative to concede defeat on behalf of the old chief.

"Uh, that doesn't seem quite right. To be honest, big brother, I don't really want to bow down to the Third, but if you insist..."

Fugaku said hesitantly.

I mean the old chief surrendered. Hyuga Hitoshi covered his face and shook his head at Fugaku.

Tired of the pointless talk with Fugaku, Hyuga Hitoshi gestured to Kakashi, who was hesitating at the door.

Seeing the signal, Kakashi stepped forward to enter, but Shisui, grinning, also wanted to follow.

"You stay here, I didn't ask you to come in."

Kakashi stopped him.

Some things truly shouldn't be heard by this naive young man, and some people are just too kind, not suited to see too much darkness.

When the whole village was spitting on him, only this kid and Guy came over to talk.

There was no need to drag him into this.

"Shoot, didn't get in."

Shisui pouted and then withdrew, after all, it was Hyuga territory, and respect was due, even if his own Patriarch was inside.

"Don't worry, Kakashi, Danzo's plan can't go on, you don't need to be an undercover agent."

As Kakashi approached, Patriarch Hitoshi reassured him directly.

"That's a bit regrettable."

Kakashi fell silent for a moment.

Regrettable?

Fugaku was stunned. Isn't it good to be alive?

But as a strange smile appeared on Kakashi's face, the next words sent chills down Fugaku's spine.

"It's a pity, we won't get to see the Eight-Tails rampage in front of Sarutobi Shinnosuke."

It really is a pity!
