Naruto: The Primal Hyuga Pierces the Shinobi World

"Yes, I look forward to your performance, Juzo Hibiki!"

Shinichi Hyuga waved to Hizashi Hyuga, who understood and untied the wires binding Juzo Biwa's body, regaining his freedom. Juzo Biwa made no move, silently picking up the scroll on the ground and putting it into his pocket.

After glancing at the corpses of his comrades on the ground, a dark cloud settled over his eyes. He picked up his Executioner's Blade and slung it back over his shoulder. Without a word, he leaped away and disappeared from the spot. Due to the restricted flow of chakra, Biwa Juzo's departure was slow, and the group of Hyuga ninjas watched him disappear into the distance.

Without greeting Shinichi Hyuga and the others, and without any intention of stopping them, the deal was struck the moment the other party picked up the scroll.

"Shinichi, did you leave a curse mark on him?"

"Are we just going to let him leave like this?"

Hizashi remained silent for a moment, then turned to Shinichi with a somber expression after Biwa Juzo had left. Biwa Juzo himself was unaware of anything, but Hizashi, with his Byakugan, could clearly see that no curse marks had been left on the other's vital parts.

While wondering about this, Hizashi also asked Shinichi a question.

"No, it's just that I left a Flying Thunder God mark."

"Let's find a place to rest first."

"If there's no movement in three days, we'll continue our operation."

Hearing that Shinichi already had a plan, Hizashi didn't say anything more. During this trip, he had discovered that Shinichi was a very opinionated person. As long as the general direction was not wrong, Hizashi was happy to see Shinichi take the lead.

For him, the more mature and powerful the main family members were, the easier it would be for them to live after splitting up.

What I fear most is that an arrogant, conceited, and brainless main family member might control the Caged Bird Seal and force the branch families to do this and that. If that's the case, the branch family ninjas would be better off dead than alive.

Shinichi's maturity and composure also put Hizashi at ease.

...

Meanwhile, having successfully escaped from Hyuga's clutches, Juzo Biwa traveled through the night until he was completely beyond the borders of the Land of Fire and boarded a small boat back to the Land of Whirlpools before finally relaxing.

"hateful--"

Just then, the Gentle Fist effect that had sealed his chakra gradually faded, and the feeling of power returning to his body made Biwa Juzo's face light up with joy. But in an instant, he remembered that he had been controlled and cursed angrily.

Despite being a renowned Jonin in the ninja world, he was now being controlled by others, which greatly displeased Biwa Juzo.

But despite the anger, the things that needed to be done still had to be done.

Along the way, he had thoroughly examined his body from head to toe, but had not detected any foreign chakra entering his body.

However, this only made Juzo Biwa more uneasy and anxious, which meant that the enemy's curse seal was so sophisticated that he couldn't even detect it.

If they can't even find it, let alone break the opponent's curse.

The Flying Thunder God Mark is a space-time marker; without experience in space-time ninjutsu, it's impossible to find the Flying Thunder God Mark.

Pipa Juzo wasn't foolish enough to think that the other party would just let him leave without doing anything. The fruitless investigation only made him more eager to find Ao and complete the task assigned to him.

Compared to his own life, what did Qing mean?!

Moreover, Juzo Biwa had absolutely no psychological barriers to betraying Kirigakure and the village.

Although he deeply loved this country and the place where he grew up, he also hated the place that had brought him so much suffering.

He felt the village was rotten, and he was tired of his current life and wanted a fresh start.

Meeting the Hyuga clan only accelerated his departure from Kirigakure, merely one of the catalysts that led him to become a rogue ninja. Before this, Juzo Biwa had already experienced countless moments of disappointment; this was simply the last straw that broke the camel's back.

It wouldn't even take a day to travel from the border of the Land of Fire to the Land of Whirlpools. In the latter half of the night he met the Hyuga clan, Kizo Biwa had already set foot on the land of the Land of Whirlpools.

After carefully and cautiously infiltrating Konoha's restricted area, Juzo Biwa successfully returned to one of Kirigakure's bases.

Upon returning to his post, he immediately reported a false message to his superiors, saying that when he infiltrated into the Land of Fire, he was ambushed by a large number of Konoha ninjas, who were suspected to be Konoha reinforcements, numbering in the hundreds.

This news put immense pressure on the Mist Ninja's leadership, prompting them to withdraw their frontline troops and convene meetings with captains at all levels to discuss and devise countermeasures.

This is exactly what Biwa Juzo hopes to achieve. As the number two figure in the Kirigakure's intelligence system, Ao is bound to attend such meetings. During the meetings, Biwa Juzo also has the opportunity to "discuss" some things with the other party alone without being suspected.

During such a meeting, the Kirigakure base would be heavily guarded, but the arrival of captains at all levels would inevitably cause chaos at the base. Even if Ao were to go missing, it would take a considerable amount of time for the higher-ups to discover the disappearance and trace it back to him.

He should have found an opportunity to leave the village long ago, given how much time has passed.

With the plan in place, Pipa Juzo patiently waited for the fish to take the bait.

...

Meanwhile, the Hyuga clan members also set up tents on an open beach to rest and recuperate.

Not far from the tent, a barrier was set up. In the center of the barrier, on the ground, lay an open scroll with the character "地" (earth) written in the center of its intricate patterns.

After nearly two days of waiting, the scroll placed within the barrier finally emitted a blazing white light that afternoon.

The Hyuga ninja monitoring the barrier also hurriedly shouted, attracting the attention of all the Hyuga family members.

"boom!!!!"

An explosion suddenly rang out within the barrier, and as dust flew everywhere, the Hyuga clan members arrived one after another. As the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, two ninjas wearing Mist Ninja headbands appeared within the barrier.

Inside the barrier, Qing, who had some scratches on his body, looked around warily. He was surprised to see that he was actually inside the barrier, and that Hyuga clan ninjas were rapidly gathering outside the barrier. This scene made his heart sink to the bottom.

In front of him, Juzo Biwa clutched his chest, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. Seeing the scene after the scroll was activated, a slight smile appeared on his face.

"This is...."

Qing realized what was happening, quickly turned around to look at Pipa Juzo, and shouted angrily:

"You actually cooperated with the Hyuga clan? You betrayed the village and sold me out!"

Even a fool would be able to guess the truth upon seeing the Hyuga clan ninjas. Moreover, Ao is not only not a fool, but also a genuinely intelligent person. He naturally knows what Juzo Biwa has done.

The other party approached them privately, saying they wanted to discuss some plan. However, when it was just the two of them, the other party suddenly pulled out a scroll and launched an attack.

Although Qing reacted quickly, at such close range, she was still affected by the spell released from the scroll.

The moment Ao's vision cleared again, he found himself still in a foreign land, surrounded by Hyuga clan ninjas.

Pipa Juzo was clearly surprised that the scroll he received contained such a space-time ninjutsu, which was quite unexpected.

After a brief moment of surprise, Juzo Biwa also noticed the Hyuga clan members surrounding the barrier. He recognized Hyuga Hizashi among the crowd and called out with a smile:

"I have done what I promised you!"

"What happens next is none of my business. Let me go!"

As he spoke, Pipa Juzo remained on guard against a possible sneak attack from Ao, his eyes constantly scanning Ao.

Ao's right eye was covered by an eyepatch, so the eye underneath couldn't be seen. However, the Hyuga clan had already spread the image of this Byakugan assassin throughout the clan, and the Hyuga clan could identify him based on his appearance alone.

The Hyuga clan members looked at Ao with resentment, and surrounded by so many Hyuga clan members, Ao couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

It's true that outsiders call him the Byakugan Killer, and it's also true that he can target the Hyuga clan on the battlefield, but it's precisely because of this understanding that he is afraid of him.

Surrounded by the Hyuga clan... he has absolutely no chance of survival...

"sand……"

Footsteps echoed on the beach. Shinichi Hyuga stepped out from the crowd and smiled as he looked at Ao and Juzo Biwa, who were trapped by the barrier.

"finally……"

"You certainly didn't disappoint me, Juzo Biwa!"

"well done."

As they were talking, a small door opened in the barrier behind Biwa Juzo. Upon seeing this, Biwa Juzo immediately flashed out. Ao also noticed this and was about to chase after him when the small door in the barrier suddenly disappeared.

Qing, who was moving a little slower, also stopped and looked around with a gloomy expression, wary of possible attacks.

There was no other way but to fight to the death!

……

Chapter 113 is also a genius! (Two chapters combined)

As they walked out through the small door of the barrier, Pipa Juzo's complexion improved considerably.

He had no idea that the scroll the other party had given him contained such a space-time ninjutsu, nor did he expect that the cursed seal that emerged from the scroll would actually teleport him here.

While inside the barrier, he was actually quite afraid that the Hyuga clan would break their promise and deal with Ao along with everything he had done.

However, the fact that the other party has released the barrier shows that they have no intention of going back on their word, otherwise they wouldn't have gone to all this trouble.

Having assessed the situation, Biwa Juzo felt slightly relieved, but his wariness of the Hyuga ninjas remained. Seeing that the Hyuga clan had completed their encirclement of Ao, Biwa Juzo shouted to Hyuga Shinichi:

"Remove the curse mark imprinted on me."

"Our transaction is now complete!"

As Pipa Juzo spoke, his muscles tensed, and he felt somewhat uneasy.

Hyuga Shinichi initially planned to deal with Ao first before handling Biwa Juzo's matter. He wasn't so naive as to simply let the other party leave, after all... this man still had some value to him.

When Shinichi heard Juzo Biwa speak up, he decided it was better to let him face reality than to keep him hanging on.

"I didn't leave any kind of curse mark on you."

"You don't need to worry about that."

"And you don't need to be so eager to sever ties with the Hyuga clan. In the future... we will still have many opportunities to cooperate."

Shinichi Hyuga didn't say it outright, but Juzo Biwa understood that the other party didn't want to give up on him as a pawn.

Upon hearing Shinichi's words, Biwa Juzo unusually did not show any anger. He was also a ninja, and having lived in the ninja world for so many years, he was no longer a naive guy. He knew very well that the other party would not give up such a pawn so easily.
