In Shinichi Hyuga's memory, Konoha seemed to be infiltrated by enemy ninja villages at all times, like a sieve.
In the early years, there was an incident where the Cloud Ninja stormed into Konoha and almost kidnapped the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. Not long ago, Obito Uchiha even took a stroll around the village.
While it might be somewhat understandable that Obito Uchiha, despite possessing Kamui, was able to bypass the barrier and become a Konoha ninja, the fact that Konoha was infiltrated by the Cloud Ninja and had its Jinchuriki kidnapped in its early years is an unforgivable mistake.
There have even been instances where Konoha was completely undetected because someone planted explosive tags all over the village.
Now, even the Hyuga clan's territory, located deep within Konoha, has encountered invaders. It's no wonder Shinichi is speechless at this level of defense.
However, this is a misunderstanding of Konoha's intelligence department. For ninjas, disguise and infiltration are their essential skills. In addition, Konoha is an open ninja village. If ninjas disguise themselves as civilians to make a living in Konoha, even the most elite intelligence department cannot identify and intercept them all.
It wouldn't be difficult for other ninja villages to create a false identity for their spies.
"She's very calm... As expected of Hyuga."
From beneath the black raincoat came a hoarse and deep male voice. As the man spoke, he grinned, revealing a row of jagged teeth.
The next instant, the man's wide sleeves suddenly shot towards Shinichi, and six senbon needles shot towards Shinichi's legs under the cover of night. In just the blink of an eye, they had already attacked Shinichi.
"who are you?"
Facing the enemy's attack, Shinichi Hyuga remained calm. With a casual wave of his hand, a powerful chakra palm strike was unleashed, instantly sending the attacking Senbon flying and heading towards the location of the man in black.
While casually deflecting the enemy's attack, Shinichi also asked a question. Although he had already recognized the other party's headband and knew that his question was rather silly and would not get a response, Shinichi still asked it anyway.
Maybe...maybe the enemy has a personality like Naruto's, and will give a silly answer?!
"boom!!!"
Shinichi's palm strike was even faster than the black-clad man's senbon speed. The man stood there, seemingly never expecting that a child as young as Shinichi could launch such a fierce counterattack. He was directly hit by Shinichi's empty palm strike, and his entire body flew back several meters, crashing into the courtyard wall.
Slowly withdrawing his hand, Shinichi showed no joy on his face. He didn't even look at the location of the person he had knocked away, but instead turned his head to look at a puddle in the corner of the courtyard.
"Such petty tricks are meaningless against the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan."
Shinichi Hyuga stood under the eaves, his hands hanging down. As he spoke, the puddle he was watching slowly rose and condensed into a human shape after a moment.
The man in black who had been knocked away by Shinichi earlier had now turned into a puddle of water, splashed to the ground, and disappeared without a trace.
Water body.
Although the Byakugan cannot identify this variant of the Shadow Clone Jutsu, it doesn't matter. In the face of the Byakugan, any chakra reaction can be traced.
As long as the enemy is still alive and lurking, they cannot escape the capture of the White Eyes.
Seeing that his whereabouts had been completely tracked, the person hesitated briefly before abandoning his attack on Shinichi Hyuga. Instead, he quickly pulled out several smoke bombs from his sleeve and threw them on the ground where they exploded.
A sudden burst of purple smoke filled the courtyard. The man leaped up and quickly jumped onto the wall. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly sensed a surge of chakra behind him.
Sensing something was wrong, the Mist Ninja quickened their pace, wanting only to escape as soon as possible.
The target's abilities far exceeded the intelligence. The moment the first raid failed and the enemy gained access to his trail, he knew that this mission could not continue.
However... it's too late to escape now!
Shinichi Hyuga, who was standing under the eaves, raised his right hand again. The overflowing chakra on his hand condensed into the shape of a lion's head. The lion opened its mouth, and a ball of chakra was gathering inside.
The moment the man in black disappeared over the wall, the chakra ball in Shinichi's palm, held in the lion's mouth, suddenly shot out.
The thick purple smoke was instantly pierced by the chakra ball, which created a large hole in the wall the moment it hit it.
On the long street outside the courtyard wall, the man in black landed, and the aura of death suddenly enveloped him. In the instant he turned around in terror, the chakra ball was already close to his eyes and quickly exploded.
"boom!!!!"
A deafening roar echoed through the Hyuga clan's territory, followed by a burst of intense white light that illuminated the sky above the Hyuga clan's lands.
Like a thunderclap from a clear sky, this loud noise woke up countless sleeping villagers.
Inside the Hyuga clan, clan members who heard the commotion rushed towards the main house, their faces filled with anger and worry.
...
Beneath a courtyard in Konoha Village.
Danzo Shimura stood in the spacious square, his head slightly raised as he gazed at the night sky.
The moment the loud noise erupted from the village, Danzo's breath caught in his throat. A flicker of surprise crossed his eyes before he silently lowered his head.
"Hinata..."
"It's a bit more difficult to deal with than I expected."
.......................
Chapter 74 Martial Law, a Harsh Measure!
In the darkness of night, a loud bang in the center of Konoha Village startled countless sleeping villagers.
In the bedroom, Minato Namikaze, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly got up, rushed to the window, lifted the curtains, and looked in the direction of the flashing white light.
Even after becoming Hokage, Minato's qualities as a ninja remained unchanged, and he was awakened the moment the incident occurred.
On a small extension bed beside the main bed, young Naruto was fast asleep. Even such a loud noise couldn't wake him; it only made him turn over.
On the other side, Kushina also noticed something, sat up and leaned against the headboard, her brows furrowing slightly as she said:
"It's Shinichi's chakra! Something's happened to the Hyuga clan!"
As a member of the Uzumaki clan, Kushina not only possessed an exceptionally large amount of chakra, but also had outstanding sensory abilities. In just a few breaths, she had already sensed who the owner of that explosive and powerful chakra was.
Shinichi Hyuga and Kushina's relationship can be considered that of master and disciple. Although Kushina only taught Shinichi the Flying Thunder God Technique and some sealing techniques, the Hyuga clan officially sent her tuition fees, and the Hyuga clan also contributed greatly to Naruto's matter.
Over the years, the two families have maintained a harmonious relationship. Even during the sensitive period following the Nine-Tails' attack, Kushina and Hanako communicated frequently. The two women, both with children, had long since become best friends who could talk about anything, and they would meet up for tea and shopping every few days.
Now that she sensed the unusual situation at the Hyuga clan, Kushina's face showed a hint of anxiety.
She was naturally aware that Hiashi Hyuga had led the Hyuga clan's elite troops to the battlefield. At such a time, if anything happened to the Hyuga clan, it would definitely be a bad sign for Minato.
As Hokage, Minato had the duty to protect everyone in the village. As a major clan in Konoha, if someone were to harm the Hyuga clan while the clan head was away, and Minato, as Hokage, did nothing, it could very well cause a rift in the close relationship between the two clans.
While concerned for Hyuga's safety, Kushina was also able to consider Minato's feelings from the perspective of a Hokage's wife.
While Kushina was speaking, Minato had already slowly crouched down by the window, pointing a finger at the ground to sense the Hyuga clan's chakra fluctuations. After a moment, Minato's expression softened, and he gently comforted her:
"Although it was Shinichi's chakra fluctuation, Shinichi is fine."
"Kushina, you stay home and take care of Naruto. I'm going to check on the Hyuga clan."
"Be careful, the enemy's target may not be Hyuga."
Minato came to the bedside, gently put his arm around Kushina's shoulder, and softly gave her his advice. After what happened with Obito, Minato had become more cautious in his actions. Having learned his lesson once from the trap of luring someone away from their prey, Minato didn't want to fall into the same trap twice.
"Don't worry, things are different now. I'm not some delicate woman!"
Kushina replied with a smile, patting her slightly bulging biceps as she spoke. Her lively appearance made Minato chuckle, and then she disappeared into the bedroom.
Minato was reassured about Kushina. As long as she wasn't weakened by childbirth, Kushina was quite strong, and even if something unexpected happened, she would be strong enough to hold on until he returned.
In fact, in Minato's mind, there were only a handful of ninjas in the entire ninja world who were capable of threatening Kushina in her prime.
...
That night, Minato Namikaze wasn't the only one who sensed the movement of the Hyuga clan.
Hiruzen Sarutobi, along with many skilled members of the Uchiha clan and some skilled members of various ninja clans in Konoha, were all able to sense the unusual changes in the direction of the Hyuga clan.
The Hokage's direct ANBU also sprang into action, rushing towards the direction from which the outbreak had occurred. Dark shadows flickered on the rooftops of residential houses, and almost all of Konoha's ninjas were mobilized.
With such a commotion in the heart of Konoha, even the most oblivious ninja would know that something big had happened.
However, as these ninjas approached the Hyuga clan's territory, they were soon intercepted and warned by Hyuga clan ninjas.
On the long corridor in front of the Hyuga dojo, Shinichi leaned against a pillar, quietly sensing the approaching ninjas. Beside him, Hyuga Shin, who had already been awakened, had arrived and was directing the Hyuga clan ninjas to set up a cordon outside the clan's territory.
Shinichi had already briefly explained the situation to Hyuga Shin. Upon hearing that the enemy was actually a Kirigakure ninja, the experienced clan elder immediately defined the incident as an assassination attempt by a rival ninja village against the Hyuga clan.
To prevent spies from taking advantage of the chaos to infiltrate the Hyuga clan again, the branch family's top ninjas who came to provide support were also dispatched to prevent any ninjas from approaching the main clan's territory.
Domineering and unreasonable.
When the Byakugan was threatened, the Hinata displayed an unprecedented level of unity.
...
As Hinata Shin's orders were carried out by the branch family elites, disputes soon broke out outside the clan territory.
"Hey! Are you kidding me? We're the Anbu directly under the Hokage, why can't we come in to investigate?"
"You dare to obstruct the Dark Guard?!"
On a long street outside the clan's territory, five elite members of the branch family intercepted a three-person secret service squad, preventing them from advancing further.
The intercepted Anbu members clearly hadn't expected to be treated this way. This was Konoha Village, and the Anbu should have the right to intervene in anything that happened, but here they were met with a wall.
"No one is allowed to approach the clan territory. This is an order from the main family!"
Faced with the questioning from the Anbu, the Hyuga clan members didn't waste any words. Their five Byakugan eyes were fixed on the Anbu members. After repeating the orders from above, they all prepared for battle.
Seeing that the Hyuga clan members had actually prepared for battle, the Anbu were at a loss, not knowing what to do.
Just then, an ANBU member wearing a cat-face mask arrived in a flash, trying to smooth things over:
"Don't be impulsive, calm down."
Several members of the secret service turned around at the sound of the voice, and when they saw who it was, their imposing manner relaxed: "Captain."
