There was a hint of guilt in Hiashi's tone, he felt that it was the Hyuga who restricted Neji, and that as he was born in a branch family, his light was obscured.

Every time he saw Neji showing a resentful look, he felt a pang of heartache.

Hearing Ritsu's guilty words, Hoshino Kaede didn't think so.

"You're going too far. As a wealthy family, the Hyuga clan possesses far more resources than other families."

"Ningji is very talented, but if Hinata hadn't provided him with a good living environment, he wouldn't have grown so fast."

"What he hates is just being a bird in a cage. I think he is proud to be born in Hyuga."

Fate is unpredictable. It never favors anyone. If you gain too much, you will definitely lose something in the future.

Ningci was born into a wealthy family and possessed resources that ordinary people could not even dream of. These were things that others could not envy.

Put yourself in their shoes. If civilian children were given the choice, they would probably choose to be born in Hyuga without hesitation.

"Your Majesty is right. I have been dwelling on a trivial matter." Hinata was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly.

"Don't worry, as long as the bird in the cage is released, everything will be fine." Xingye Feng said to him with a smile.

Hearing this, Rizu nodded firmly: "I will go and prepare now."

"Go ahead." said Hoshino Kaede.

After Hiashi left, Hoshino Kaede thought for a moment and then asked someone to call Shisui.

"Greetings, Your Majesty." Shisui said respectfully.

Seven years have passed, and Shisui has grown from being immature to mature, no longer the child who cried when he was beaten by him.

"Shisui, your mission has been completed." Hoshino Kaede said. "Also, you have been in the Dark Guard for long enough these years. Now, you can rest."

After he finished speaking, Hoshino Kaede looked at Shisui seriously. That unquestionable expression made Shisui swallow the words that were about to come out.

Seeing that Shisui looked reluctant, Xingye Feng said, "The Dark Guard will lay off some people in recent years, and you are one of them."

"The ninja world is peaceful now, and there is no need for so many people. You are still young, and you can't waste your good time. You should also consider your future."

No matter how unwilling he was, Shisui had no choice but to obey orders.

Seeing this, Xingye Feng shook his head helplessly. This kid is a little crazy. He can stay in such a place. He always feels that there is something wrong with his psychology.

"After you leave, your status as a jonin will be restored, and I will double your benefits. Go and live your life in the sunshine."

After that, Hoshino Kaede joked: "If you don't go back, Itachi probably won't recognize you."

The job of a secret guard was very boring and required a high level of confidentiality. Shisui could only greet Itachi occasionally and had to hide himself most of the time.

Hearing this, a hint of apology flashed in Shisui's eyes, which was seen by Hoshino Kaede, who couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

"The Dark Guard came into being, and up to now, it has completed its mission."

After hesitating for a while, Shisui reluctantly accepted the current situation, bowed and left.

"It's been seven years. Time flies so fast. The kids have grown up." Hoshino Feng stood outside the window, looking at the ever-changing Konoha, and couldn't help but sigh at the passing of time.

After muttering to himself, Xingye Feng's figure disappeared from the spot.

The scene changed and they came to the Hokage Rock.

After Hoshino Kaede ascended the throne, this place was still preserved and repaired and maintained every month.

The title of Hokage does not only remain in books, but also watches over people regardless of wind or rain.

Feng Xingye sat on the ground, supported himself with his hands, looked up at the blue sky and white clouds, and smiled naturally with satisfaction.

"Your Majesty... Is there something you want me to do?" A young man appeared behind Xingye Feng, clutching the corner of his clothes and asked stiffly.

Hearing the question, Xingye Feng did not answer, but patted his side and motioned for him to come and sit down.

Hoshino Makoto hesitated for a moment, but still gritted his teeth and sat with Hoshino Kaede.

"This place is of great significance to Konoha. It is the beginning of everything." Hoshino Kaede spoke to himself.

Hoshino Makoto's ears pricked up quietly. He had only seen this period of history in history books, but most of them were just mentioned in passing and rarely described in detail.

"There are four generations of Hokage in Konoha, and each generation has had a profound impact on Konoha."

"Until now, I, the Third Hokage, have become the Emperor and replaced the Hokage."

"More than ten years have passed. The ninja world is at peace and order has been stabilized. I have done enough."

After decades of hard work, Xingye Feng felt a little tired.

Hearing His Majesty mumbling to himself, Hoshino Makoto just felt curious and wondered why he said these to him.

He felt that he was just an ordinary person with no background and no strength.

Although he has some talents, they are still not good enough in front of Your Majesty, and it is not worthy for Your Majesty to look for him alone.

Like an old man reminiscing about the past, Xingye Feng kept talking without stopping for a moment.

Out of respect, Makoto Hoshino forced himself to stay awake, otherwise he would feel it was too disrespectful.

After chattering for a long time, Xingye Feng finally stopped. Then he looked at Xingye Makoto, and seeing that he looked drowsy, he couldn't help but chuckle.

This laugh woke Makoto Hoshino up. Realizing that he almost fell asleep, his face turned red and he lowered his head.

Suddenly, he felt a hand touching his head. Makoto Hoshino couldn't help but look up with surprise in his eyes.

"His Majesty!"

"Xiao Cheng, do you think you have parents?" Xingye Feng asked while caressing him gently.

Hoshino Makoto was stunned when he heard this, and after a moment he stammered, "Probably... probably not."

After hearing this, Xingye Feng did not comment, and then asked: "Then do you long to have parents?"

Hoshino Makoto remained silent, he didn't know what to say.

Growing up in an orphanage, he had a deep longing for his parents, but as he grew older, that longing faded.

Seeing that he was silent, Xingye Feng sighed softly and withdrew his stroking hand.

"If I say, your father is me, would you believe it?"

After he finished speaking, Hoshino Makoto suddenly looked up, with a look of disbelief in his eyes, but then it disappeared because he felt that this was impossible.

"Your Majesty, I respect you, but please don't joke about my parents." Hoshino Makoto looked serious, his eyes fixed on him, with a hint of stubbornness in his eyes.

Hearing this, Xingye Feng raised the corners of his lips and smiled slightly, then his tone became serious: "Then I say, this is true, will you believe it?"

Looking at the genuine eyes of Hoshino Kaede and the firm tone, Hoshino Makoto felt his head buzzing, as if there were flies buzzing in his ears.

"Your Majesty, you must be joking." Hoshino Makoto said with a pale face and forced a smile.

The news was so shocking that it made his brain a mess and a little confused.
