Konoha: We, the Uchiha, are ready to give up!

He will return to the village as soon as possible!

Minato Namikaze understood.

Jiraiya is returning to the village this time, and Tsunade will most likely come as well, because of the Wood Release technique.

This will definitely have a huge impact on the village's layout.

But never mind!

It had little to do with him, so he naturally didn't bother to care.

……

Time slowly passed.

Before we knew it, a month had passed by.

Perhaps for Konoha, today is just an ordinary day.

But for the Hyuga clan, it was a very important day.

Hinata Yu!

Elder Yangtai's eldest son will be having his coming-of-age ceremony today.

Because of the Hyuga clan's unique approach, they are essentially completely isolated from other villages.

friend?

Almost none!

Aside from holding Jonin group meetings and special circumstances such as war, they don't even communicate with other people in the village.

The Hyuga clan prefers to play alone behind closed doors!

A huge courtyard is decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations everywhere today.

Amidst the comings and goings of people, everyone seemed extremely busy.

only.

It was a very strange time, yet there was basically no festive atmosphere.

Not to mention the Hyuga branch family members who were doing the work, their eyes were filled with numbness, and they looked exactly like walking corpses.

Even the Hyuga main family, sitting high in the main hall, still maintains a serious and arrogant demeanor.

This is the Hyuga clan.

They fawn over and submit to the village's leaders, even willing to be their dogs.

But when it comes to internal affairs, they present a completely different face.

Strict hierarchy, rigid arrogance, and strict adherence to rules.

above the hall.

Hyuga Hiashi sat at the head of the table, with the main family members in the row to his left, and naturally, the master of this place, Hyuga Yotsuyasu, in the lower left position.

On the right are the branch family's high-ranking officials. Next to them, in the first position, is Hyuga Hizashi!

"Everyone..."

"Welcome everyone to Yu's coming-of-age ceremony today. Thank you all sincerely!"

"Of course, there is something else I need to tell everyone."

“I found Yu’s maid, Hyuga Aya. As you all know, she has some connection with Uchiha Jin.”

"The rise of the Uchiha clan is not a good thing for our Hyuga clan."

"Of course, I don't want to join the Uchiha clan. I just want to monetize this friendship and at least get a few powerful positions for my Hyuga clan."

"After all, everyone knows the current situation of the Uchiha clan. With the Aburame, Inuzuka, Ino-Shika-Cho, and other clans joining them, they can basically control half of the village's power without any surprises."

"Once Hiruzen Sarutobi steps down and the Fourth Hokage takes over, there will definitely be a major upheaval in the village's leadership."

"The struggle between the Uchiha clan and the village's higher-ups, and who wins or loses, is none of our business."

"But in my opinion, even if the Uchiha lose, they will definitely be able to take over many positions in this upheaval."

"With the relationship between Hyuga Aya and Uchiha Jin, exchanging a few positions in powerful departments and giving Hyuga some of the assets in terms of distribution shouldn't be a big problem, right?"

"There's no need to worry about the Uchiha refusing. After all, our two clans have been fighting for so many years, and we basically know the Uchiha's character very well."

· ········Requesting flowers····· ······

"Although the Uchiha clan is prone to acting crazy, they still value emotions very much."

"Anyway, Hinata Aya is just a branch family member, and from now on she will only be my Yu's maid. He has no use for this relationship."

"With such a discount, the Uchiha would never refuse."

"Our Hyuga clan doesn't need to rely on the Uchiha, yet we can still gain some tangible benefits. Moreover, by sitting back and watching the two sides fight, we might even be able to pick up a big bargain after the village's higher-ups and the Uchiha are both exhausted!"

"Of course I want to plan this, but I can't do it alone."

"We need everyone's collective wisdom and efforts, and the clan leader's involvement, to ensure that our interests are maximized!"

"However, since Hyuga Aya is my maid, our branch must take at least one-third of the benefits from this exchange with the Uchiha."

..... ..... ...

"How are you all doing?"

Hinata Yosuke, with an arrogant expression.

Yes.

He was very proud.

No one else paid attention to Hinata Aya, but he alone had a keen eye and directly reaped such a great benefit.

If successful, the benefits will be enormous!

The others were talking amongst themselves.

Their gazes toward Hinata Yotsuya were filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred.

Yes.

Upon hearing these words, they finally realized what was happening.

Uchiha, that's for sure!

Although they are mentally unstable, they value emotions the most.

Hyuga Aya and Uchiha Jin were teammates. Perhaps their relationship wasn't very deep, but it was still a precious bond of camaraderie!

If we exchange it for some benefits, it's not a big problem.

Although the Hyuga clan's actions may seem a bit unseemly, compared to the tangible benefits, such a loss of face is nothing.

The main family members of the Hyuga clan have long been raised into a bunch of idiots.

Their vision is very limited; to say they are short-sighted is certainly no exaggeration.

They don't care about anything else as long as there are benefits to be gained.

after all.

So what if they look down on you?

They won't leave the family, and those who participate in the war are from the branch families. Even if others despise and ridicule them, it's only because of those branch families.

For the Hyuga clan, are members of the branch family still considered human?

It's just the assets and slaves of a group of families.

Think of this.

These clan elders immediately became restless.

"My people are right!"

"I agree, let's change it!"

"support!"

"……"Door.

Chapter 281 The Greedy Main Family, Hyuga Hiashi Curses!

Hyuga Hiashi had a slight frown on his brow.

His eyes were filled with impatience as he watched the members of the main family speak one after another.

Yes.

Unlike these corrupt main families, Hyuga Hiashi was quite farsighted.

First of all, he looked down on the family's behavior of not treating the branch family as human beings, or even as livestock.

We're all of the same race, why bother?
