Chapter 13 Lack of Manpower
Hokage's office.
After listening to Kakashi's report, the third generation frowned and said: "Go and invite Hizashi over."
It's simply unbelievable that Byakugan, who has the strongest detective power, was unexpectedly attacked.
In the past, Uchiha was responsible for guarding the outer areas of Konoha, and they had never suffered such a big loss.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Hinata was replaced, Kirigakure came over.
Fortunately, the warning fireworks were set off, otherwise this group of Kirigakure would sneak into the village and the consequences would be disastrous.
After Kakashi went down.
With the sound of crutches hitting the ground.
"Hiruzhan, I have long said that the defense of Konoha is the top priority. These wealthy families are simply unreliable. My roots should be allowed to join the guard force."
The person who came was none other than Shimura Danzo, who had been deprived of his position.
The Third Hokage was not surprised to see Danzo. After all, even if Danzo was deprived of his position as assistant to the Hokage, he was still an advisory elder.
Hokage Assistant is just a name to him.
After all, the Third Hokage has many things that are not convenient for him to do himself, so he still needs to rely on Danzo.
The Third Hokage picked up his pipe and took a puff.
"Danzo, you must be responsible for the recent security problems."
"Humph, I don't know what you are talking about."
"Now the Uchiha have completely withdrawn from the police force, and the remaining few Uchiha clan members are only guarding their own shops. Please give me a break."
Danzo did make trouble for two days, but later found out that Uchiha didn't accept the move at all, and what he did became a joke.
He did not take up the topic, but continued with his previous proposal:
"Everyone is loyal and loyal at the root, so he is very suitable to be stationed in the police force."
The Third Hokage knew clearly what Danzo had planned, and waved his hand in annoyance:
"We will discuss this matter later. I will ask Hizashi about the situation first."
"Hiruzen, think about it carefully."
Danzo didn't hesitate. He knew that the Third Generation would not allow it, so he extended his tentacles to the guard.
So I slowly left on crutches.
…
During this time, the garrison was attacked.
And the news that a team and a Hyuga clan member died has spread to the Uchiha clan.
At this time, Natsuki was visiting Shisui. Shisui's eyes had already been connected. I have to say that changing eyes was really easy.
Even if you don't have a special constitution, eye replacement surgery is considered a particularly easy minor surgery here.
You see, Nohara Rin can give Kakashi a Sharingan on the battlefield.
You know how popular medical techniques in this area are in this world.
Of course, the most remarkable thing among them is Tsunade, the palm immortal technique she taught.
It can repair various wounds extremely quickly, greatly reducing mortality.
If Shisui hadn't had other injuries on his body, he wouldn't have been lying in bed for a week just to change his eyes.
"Senior, I'm fine, why do you insist on keeping me at home for so long?"
Shisui originally called him deputy clan leader, but Natsuki stopped him and tightened the relationship and asked him to just call him senpai.
"Konoha is in a troubled time right now, and many people are watching us Uchiha. I want you to rest at home. On the one hand, I want you to fully recover, and on the other hand, I want to let things ferment for a while."
In Natsuki's heart, although Shisui is not smart, he is really capable.
Moreover, Shisui is not old now and still has a lot of room for growth.
The Sharingan is a very big burden for Shisui now, and Susana cannot use it indiscriminately.
But if other gods use it well, it can be a great help.
"Deputy Chief! You are here! How is your recovery, Shisui?"
The person who came was called Uchiha Yaoye, and he was considered a slightly more obedient person among the hawks.
Yao Ye has always admired Natsumu after Natsumu defeated the Hokage family a week ago.
And interestingly enough, his younger brother is Uchiha Keaki.
One is careless and the other is smart. I really don’t know why these two people are brothers.
The third elder simply left him at Xia Mu's command, and he was here to tell Xia Mu about the attack on the security team.
"That's what happened. The strange thing is that there are members of the Hinata clan who almost didn't set off warning fireworks."
"As expected, Hinata's tribe is not as good as our Uchiha. The guard team was attacked immediately without us Uchiha stationed there."
Xia Mu didn't care about Yao Ye's boasting, but he knew why he was attacked even if he had Byakugan.
Byakugan has ultra-far vision, but not 360-degree ultra-distance vision.
The visual distance is different when looking in one direction and when looking in 360 degrees.
When people from the Hyuga branch look into the distance with their Byakugan, they habitually turn their bodies to observe.
This is because their first thoracic vertebra spreads 1° of blind angle to the rear, and they are accustomed to using the immediate perspective when looking into the distance.
If someone's sight distance can suppress them, they can see Hinata's body rotation.
The sight distance of Hinata's Byakugan is determined by the purity and strength of the Byakugan.
The only people who can suppress Hinata Morisuke in the visual range are the eyes of the clan with Jonin level strength.
Since there is Kirigakure's shadow, this matter is most likely done by Kirigakure's Ao.
Because the Hyuga family only lost one of the clan's Byakugan during the Third Ninja War.
Last time Ao wanted to come to Konoha to cause trouble, but was scared off by Shisui's genjutsu. He is a very cautious person.
"Now Hyuga Hiashi has reported to the Third Hokage, Deputy Clan Leader, do you think Hyuga will come to ask our Uchiha for help?"
Xia Mu looked at Yao Ye with some amusement. Although he was already a three-magatama jonin, he must be considered a commander in other ninja clans.
But Yao Ye's mind was a little simple. Although he was promoted to jonin during the war, he fought his way up with his own strength and basically never commanded other teams.
In his mind, if the Uchiha clan can do something well, other ninja clans will definitely come for help.
Because the Uchiha clan is the most powerful.
"They will definitely come, but we will not wade into this muddy water again."
"Yao Ye, go and invite the clan leader to the conference room and tell him that I am waiting for him there"
"Yes! Deputy Clan Leader!" Yao Ye was very excited when he thought that the deputy clan leader might take action.
Looking at Yao Ye's impetuous back, Xia Mu waved his hand: "Shisui, get ready, we will need you in a few days."
Shisui touched his eyes and nodded with a firm look.
...
When Xia Mu arrived at the meeting room, Fugaku was already waiting for him there.
"Xia Mu, what do you think about this?"
The previous news was passed on by Fugaku.
"The Hyuga clan is definitely qualified as the outer guard of the security team. This attack was an accident."
"Because the Byakugan of their branch family is defective, this defect caused problems in their usage habits."
Xia Mu then explained to Fugaku about the visual blind spots caused by the Byakugan caged bird, as well as the Byakugan purity strength, which affects the detection range and visual range.
He also talked about the speculation of the attackers.
Fugaku suddenly realized at this time, no wonder the Hyuga family was attacked, it turned out that the Byakugan of the Hyuga branch family had this defect.
Are the eyes that can see the future so strong?
Fugaku automatically thought of Xia Mu's Mangekyō ability, otherwise, outsiders would have no way of knowing this secret.
"Xia Mu..."
Fugaku said earnestly: "The pupil technique of the Mangekyō Sharingan cannot be abused."
"Otherwise, your eyes will soon go blind."
Xia Mu nodded, and it seemed that Fugaku really trusted him: "Don't worry, clan leader, I know what's going on. Thank you for your concern."
Seeing that Xia Mu knew what was going on, Fugaku nodded with relief.
"How will Hyuga deal with this matter?"
"As long as Hyuga sends a team composed of two branches, this problem can be completely compensated. But the Hyuga family has a fatal problem, that is, they don't have enough people!"
The number of Uchiha clan ninjas is less than that of the Hyuga clan.
Because everyone in the Hyuga family can open the Byakugan, basically everyone is a soldier.
Naturally, there are many people.
But the Hyuga clan will not leave the clan, and the guards of the clan are all branches.
This reduces the number of available personnel by half.
Besides, external patrols require at least Chunin strength.
Hyuga, who has been spending most of his manpower maintaining law and order in the village, must be stretched thin on external patrols.
"Now that you are still the captain of the guard team, the Hyuga family will definitely come to you for a discussion."
"Then we can..."
...
