As a member of the Hokage, one dares not be a loyal subject of Konoha!

The tribesmen were in high spirits!

The atmosphere had already been built up to this point, and talking about anything else would be pointless. The sounds that naturally came out of my mouth turned into roars that shook the heavens.

"war!"

Please vote, everyone!! There's one more page coming up~ After that, we'll transition directly into the battlefield storyline.

Chapter 65 Loyal retainers of Konoha.

Chief Richeng was tongue-tied and inarticulate; his so-called pre-battle mobilization consisted of nothing more than shouting a few words and that was it.

The tribesmen began to receive their tasks in an orderly manner, and then left to find their own teams.

On the sidelines.

Mikoto, holding Sasuke in the distance, watched her lover from afar. Ultimately, she was mindful of her reputation as the adulterer and, despite being the wife of the Uchiha clan leader, didn't get too close.

However, Yekura did not have this concern.

"The slogans were so loud they were deafening, they startled me."

As she straightened Hinata Hinata's collar, the pretty woman's brows furrowed with worry and resentment.

"I am Pakura, who used the Scorching Release technique. Now that you, you bastard, have ruined me and turned me into Hyuga Kura, I am still a member of the Hyuga clan. Why won't you let me go?"

As the concubine of the Hyuga clan chief, she was ordered to stay at home and was forbidden from following him.

However, Chief Richeng did not want his woman to be kept in a gilded cage. She was willing to help and her combat strength was not low, so it would not be a big problem for her to go to the battlefield with him.

But he also didn't want Ye Cang, who had finally escaped the battlefield, to relive that experience.

In addition, the household does need a female head of the household to keep an eye on things. Although Yugito Nii is sealed and cannot use the Two-Tails' chakra or her own chakra, she is still a true elite of Kumogakure. Pakura has been watching over her these past few days.

"Besides, if I can't do it, why can she?"

Seemingly getting angrier the more she thought about it, Ye Cang's pretty face turned slightly cold. She grabbed Hyuga Himeko by the collar and pulled the much taller man in front of her face.

Following Yekura's finger and looking into the distance, Hyuga Hisei clearly saw Tsunade, who was being pointed at, looking somewhat embarrassed. The scene resembled that of a mistress caught red-handed by the wife.

However, after Tsunade realized that she and Hinata Hyuga had no affair, she became much more generous after being pointed at, and even deliberately puffed out her chest to show that she was very open and honest.

However, Yecang immediately labeled her actions as provocation. There was no way around it; just looking at the scale, they were not in the same league at all. It was simply blatant showing off!

"She was the team doctor, and she insisted on training for hemophobia resistance. I couldn't do anything about it."

Hinata Himo explained helplessly.

Who knows what Tsunade is thinking? Even if she wants to go to the front lines and play a role, there's no need for her to follow her.

But on Yekura's side...

Grabbing his young wife's hand, and then naturally embracing the back of the most beautiful woman in the Naruto clan, Chief Richeng's gaze was sincere.

"I need a helper, my house needs a lady of the house."

After saying that, a green orb of light appeared in Hinata Hisei's hand. This thing was one of the legacies on the moon, and due to limited research time, it was considered an initial version.

After Hinata Himaru's upgraded version, not only can he control others, but he can also increase his strength after absorbing their power until the remaining power inside is used up.

It can be considered his trump card left for Yekura, and it also contains his coordinates, so that he can quickly return if something goes wrong.

However, Yekura's attention was clearly not on the cheat code her man had given her; instead, the words "mistress" filled her mind.

Is this bastard proposing?

Although she had done everything she was supposed to do, the most beautiful back still wanted to maintain her composure, so she snorted.

"If you insist, then it won't work."

forget.

This is a proud and arrogant person.

Hinata Himeko suddenly realized, and then naturally nodded shamelessly.

"I beg you!"

Are you serious?

Ye Cang was stunned for a moment, then her pretty face turned red instantly. She left with the words "We'll talk when you get back" and ran away. Seeing this, Mikoto, who was in the distance, nodded to Hyuga Hisei and chased after him with Sasuke in her arms.

"She likes you quite a bit."

Watching Yekura flee into the distance, Tsunade walked over with a complicated expression.

"I know."

Hinata Himeko spoke slowly, saying that everyone she liked was now called "Dad."

"So you really want to go to the battlefield in person?"

Tsunade frowned, unsure of Hyuga Hiroshi's intentions.

As the head of the Hyuga clan, he is a true member of the Hyuga main family.

This identity is very useful even during wartime. With a single call, countless branch families will take his place and die, so why go to the front lines?

"If I don't do something, people will really think that all the men in my clan are useless."

Hinata Himo didn't want to explain this issue, so he simply made it up.

Tsunade clearly didn't believe it, and even looked ashamed.

"You've gone through a lot. If my teacher hadn't been so incompetent, you wouldn't have had to go to such lengths for the village."

Um.

Hinata Himo frowned and slowly typed a question mark.

What does "for the sake of the village" mean? Isn't that the old village chief's favorite saying?

Just kidding, Hyuga Himaru's act of being prepared to fight to the death wasn't entirely for Konoha's sake.

He had long ago figured out the two paths for the future of the Hyuga clan, and he always prepared to do both.

He will only choose another path if one path is blocked.

One reason is to become a loyal retainer of Konoha. If this rotten village can be saved even slightly, he wouldn't mind rising up and fulfilling his dream of becoming Hokage.

It's nothing more than secretly accumulating strength and waiting for the right moment to take down Konoha's F4 in one fell swoop and rewrite the rules. As long as you have the strength, it's not difficult.

But here's the question: why should he take over a run-down village and expend so much effort to rebuild it into the number one ninja village? The Hyuga doesn't owe Konoha anything.

He's not like Hashirama Senju. Hashirama Senju had that kind of awareness, but he really didn't.

So he had to see if the village was worth it. Under that premise, he didn't slack off or not put in any effort. He was even planning to go to the battlefield. It was not bad to say that he was going to fight for Konoha. After all, if he had enough merit, it would be easier to force the abdication.

Secondly, he is straightforward and brutal. When he loses patience with the village and finds that it is not worth the effort to demolish and rebuild it, he chooses to live a more comfortable life at his own pace, withdrawing as a war hero. As long as the reasons are sufficient, he will not let his people bear the stigma of traitor.

The rear base has now been secured, which provides a guarantee for both the first and second routes, so the work wasn't in vain.

But if you take this path, you'll have to kill as many as you see on the battlefield. You'll have to slaughter a lot of them. The villages of Iwagakure and Kumogakure will be severely weakened and, like Konoha, won't be able to recover in a short time.

In this way, once the Hyuga clan has thoroughly researched the Moon's heritage and completed its overall upgrade, they will face three fewer ninja villages as enemies when they return to the ninja world!

Hinata Hijiri was well aware of the Byakugan's allure to the ninja world. Ao from Kirigakure got one and went around bragging about it as his spoils of war, even avoiding leaving the village unless absolutely necessary for fear of it being stolen.

When the entire Hyuga clan returns to the ninja world, they will likely be enemies of the entire world, making them even more attractive than the Uzumaki clan back then.

The Uzumaki clan was wiped out from the entire Land of Whirlpools, which means that a considerable number of forces attacked them. If it were the Hyuga clan, they would have to prepare for the worst.

Fortunately, Hinata Hijiri must have been very strong at that time.

But Chief Richeng was always very meticulous in his work.

Now that he has the opportunity to completely eliminate his future opponent, why doesn't he take action?

Therefore, in Hyuga Hijin's view, going to war for Konoha was just a side effect. He could even choose to run away now and watch from the sky as Kumogakure and Iwagakure defeated Konoha and became even stronger.

But this is completely inconsistent with Hinata Hiroshi's plan, neither of which path it follows, nor does it conform to Hinata Hiroshi's thinking.

However, he knew all of this, but Tsunade did not.

From another person's perspective, it seems that the Hyuga clan is currently leading the entire clan to the front lines, fighting a bloody battle for Konoha.

Alright, I reckon the Hyuga clan's reputation as Konoha's greatest loyalists will resound throughout the ninja world by then.

"It really is for the village."

Chief Nichisei looked at Tsunade with a complicated expression, unsure how to respond.

He looked as if he had been greatly insulted, and his aggressive gaze made Tsunade quite uncomfortable.

"Don't look at me like that. I'm not some little girl from Sunagakure! Besides, you're doing this for Konoha, not for me. At most, I'll thank you on behalf of my grandfather. Don't even think about it."

Tsunade took two steps back with a wary look in her eyes, then covered her buttocks and said...

It's hard to imagine what rumors she heard when she returned to the village that led her to become like this.

So, what kind of image does this clan leader have in the eyes of others?

I can't be bothered with Tsunade.

He glanced at the elite team, fully equipped and ready to go.

Chief Richeng put away his smile, strode forward, stood at the very front, pointed into the distance, and took the first step!

Please vote for me! Thank you so much, everyone!

Chapter 66: Open the champagne at halftime.

People's joys and sorrows are not the same.

In stark contrast to the tense atmosphere on Konoha's side.

The ninjas from Iwagakure and Kumogakure both wore expressions of joy after their great victory.

No wonder they were happy.

The entire ninja world was completely taken aback by the unexpected turn of events in the battle.

First, the Hidden Cloud Village launched a strong attack, and Konoha's defenses were breached in two consecutive lines.

Then, inexplicably, Konoha, which had finally managed to block the attack, suddenly retreated, giving up most of the Land of Fire.
