Chapter 160 The drunkard doesn’t care about drinking
After hesitating for a moment, Fujido Takatora said, "Xiao Feng, are you sure?"
He knew Kaede Hoshino. The decisions he had implemented since he became Hokage had brought visibly new vitality to Konoha.
He led Konoha to become the undisputed number one in the ninja world, and everyone saw it.
But he also knew that Hyuga's caged bird situation could not be solved by simple policies.
The bird in the cage has been the basis of Hyuga's survival for hundreds of years.
This is a one-way spell that can only be planted but not removed.
Once engraved, the curse will stay with you for life.
"The bird in the cage is the root of the Hyuga clan. No one has been able to break the curse since it was created."
In terms of strength, he admitted that Hoshino Kaede was capable of suppressing the ninja world.
But breaking the curse is a delicate job. Destruction is easy, creation is difficult, and the same is true.
Hoshino Kaede looked at Hinata Hizashi's departing back and said softly, "The bird in the cage is a double-edged sword for Hinata."
"It protects the weak tribesmen, but it also restricts the Hyuga's path to becoming strong, so that there has been no Kage level since the Hyuga Tennin."
“Its benefits cannot be denied, but caged birds are a different beast these days.”
"When Konoha was first established, the conflict between the main family and the branch family was not obvious. As time went by, the conflict became more and more serious and could not be resolved."
Fujido Takatora was stunned. He understood what Hoshino Kaede was talking about.
They are complacent and self-contained, with branch families being treated like slaves and the main family being high and mighty.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Hinata is now on a downward spiral.
There is no one available in the main family, the branch family is restricted, and the talent is dwindling, which is like a chronic poison, strangling the vitality of the family bit by bit.
It’s just that those in the clan who have narrow vision are unaware of it, or maybe they know it but are content with the status quo.
The older people get, the more they worry that what they have will one day leave them.
The courage I had in my youth was eroded by the increasingly comfortable life.
"What...are you going to do?" Gao Hu asked, with anticipation in his eyes.
Hoshino Feng patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "If there is a sealing technique in Konoha, it must be Master Mito."
Gao Hu suddenly realized: "It's Lord Mito." Then his expression brightened with joy.
Lord Mito's sealing technique is undoubtedly the best in Konoha. If so, it is really possible to break it.
"Don't be too happy too soon. It takes a lot of time to crack the caged bird, and it can't be exposed in public, otherwise Hinata will probably make trouble for me, although I'm not afraid."
Gao Hu also knew this. If it were that simple, the bird in the cage would have died long ago. How could it have survived until now?
But when he thought about it this way, the problem was still not solved, and Gao Hu couldn't help but look bitter.
Seeing this, Xingye Feng thought for a moment and said, "The elders of the clan asked Hiashi to bring a message to you. They probably want to put pressure on you. They also know the relationship between you and me, so they don't dare to force you."
"Just pretend nothing happened, live your life, and the rest will just take care of itself."
Gao Hu asked in confusion: "Why wait?"
Xingye Feng smiled mysteriously: "Don't worry about this, just listen to me."
Gao Hu scratched his head and decided to wait and see. It would be inappropriate to look for He Mei again before the matter was resolved.
......
In the Hyuga clan's territory, Hyuga Hizashi was retelling the process of passing on the message. He sat upright with his back straight, and his conversation showed the demeanor of a great man. After finishing the narration, he came behind Hyuga Mori and lowered his head slightly.
"We actually ran into Lord Hokage. This is really a difficult situation." The Great Hyuga Elder stroked his gray beard, looking troubled.
I originally wanted to use verbal pressure to quickly settle the matter, but I happened to be discovered and all my efforts were in vain.
Hinata Mamoru looked seriously at Hinata Hizashi who was bowing his head and said, "Did the Hokage ask you to deliver a message?"
Hearing this, Hizashi raised his head and nodded vigorously: "Hokage-sama asked me to bring a message to father-sama."
He paused, then repeated what Xingye Feng said exactly.
The moment he finished speaking, the room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, and Great Hyuga Elder could hardly control his expression.
Hinata Sheng took a deep breath and said, "This Hokage is a man who always does what he says and never compromises."
At this time, the third elder of the clan snorted coldly: "It's not so easy to get rid of the bird in the cage. What can we do even if we study it?"
Except for the young Hyuga Hiashi and Hyuga Hizashi, everyone present heard the hidden meaning behind Hoshino Kaede's words.
If you don't give in, he will secretly advance his research on caged birds.
After calming down, Great Elder Hyuga said with a complicated expression, "What if they really figure it out? How will the clan deal with it then?"
After saying that, he shook his head and added: "We don't have any choice."
The Great Elder's words were not polite at all, and he directly pointed out their situation.
At this time, Hinata Sheng said quietly: "Everyone knows that the Hokage is strong, but he has never been tough on the family openly. He has always hinted at it in private."
"It will be the same this time, unless we betray Konoha..."
For a moment, the atmosphere seemed extremely stagnant. Hiashi held Hizashi's hand, trying to reduce their presence, and his heart was very complicated.
If father's words were spread maliciously, Hinata would definitely be despised by everyone.
Because in Konoha, in the eyes of civilians and small families, Hoshino Kaede is like a god, and they themselves are believers who believe in God.
If the gods are insulted, their believers will make them pay a heavy price, and Hinata will be spurned and cursed.
In fact, Hinata Hiashi also prefers Hoshino Kaede in his heart, but people say that he dare not express his feelings because it is not the right time for him yet.
The third elder slammed the table angrily and said, "What's the difference between this and being a scoundrel?"
The Great Elder glanced at him, ignored his complaints, looked at Hinata Mori and said, "Forget it, you can't beat the Hokage by using tricks, don't worry about Kazumi."
Hinata Mori sighed and nodded, "This is the only way."
The Great Elder shook his head secretly, he had something else to say.
It is estimated that Feng Hoshino's purpose this time was to be a bird in a cage from the beginning to the end, and the matter with Mei was probably just a by-product.
The drunkard's real intention is not to drink!
Hyuga's clan system requires that branch families must obey the main family. If the village wants to transfer a branch family, it can only talk to the main family.
This is absolutely not allowed for a Hokage, especially a strong one.
Even if Hinata gives in this time, I'm afraid the Hokage will not cancel his research on the bird in the cage.
I guess he has already said hello to the institute.
Although he saw through this, he had no intention of speaking out and instead acquiesced.
The Great Elder rubbed the teacup with his fingers. His face was reflected in the water, and his eyes flickered.
"This is an opportunity, an opportunity to break the old ways and give Hinata a chance to be reborn."
“The seeds have been planted. When they sprout, we just need to wait patiently and everything will be fine.”
After the tone was set, the elders dispersed one after another, leaving only Hinata Mori and his two brothers behind.
Hinata Mori looked at his eldest son, Hinata Hiashi, took a sip of tea and said, "Did you see anything?"
