Chapter 24 An Ordinary Day
Konoha June 15, 1958.
An ordinary day.
it's clear.
As a young master of the clan, Hinata Yuan got up very early. After practicing Soft Boxing for half an hour in the training ground downstairs and sweating profusely, he went to take a shower, changed clothes, and then checked the time. Go to grandpa's room and say hello politely.
"Don't go anywhere today. Come with me to attend the Hyuga clan meeting later." Grandpa Hyuga Kusaku is a noble clan elder of the Hyuga clan. He was visiting friends three days ago. After receiving the clan leader's meeting notice, He also immediately returned to Konoha.
"Yes." Hinata sighed in his heart. He knew that today the Konoha Theater would have the No. 1 performer from the Fire Country singing on stage. Now that he was attending a clan meeting, he naturally couldn't go there and join in the fun.
There were only two people at the dining table, grandfather and grandson. Kusaku suddenly said:
"Yesterday you and Xiao Ling Xiaojia went to the head of the family's mansion to play. Did you feel anything was abnormal?"
"No...no, there are just more trees inside, fewer people, and Xiaojia has been crying."
Xiao Ling, also known as Ri Xiang Ling, is a member of the Zong family.
Hyuga is the granddaughter of another elder of the Hyuga family. She is only two years old this year and is also a member of the clan.
It cannot be said that the three of them played well together, but they were forced to play together in the name of the three clan elders.
"Yeah..." Jiuzaku narrowed his eyes and recalled that when he returned to Konoha to visit the clan leader the day before yesterday, although everything was normal, he always felt that the clan elders around him seemed to have something to say to him. I originally thought that this kind of unspoken hint would be confirmed by the child, but now it seems that this is not the case.
Is it an illusion?
After breakfast, the grandfather and grandson arrived at the head of the family's mansion. Xiao Yuan went to play with Hinata, while Kusaku went to the main hall alone.
Apart from a few more trees that made it look a little spooky, the family head's mansion was undoubtedly still the most prestigious type of building in Konoha. The dark-eyed servants passing by smiled and nodded at him.
In the main hall, all the senior Hyuga officials have arrived, and several clan elders seem to have been sitting here yesterday. They are discussing something softly.
Jiuzaku found a place to sit down, and the topic of their discussion suddenly revolved around him:
"Hurry up... Kusaku... you guys, hurry up and go..."
"Kusaku...use the Byakugan...Kusaku!!"
"You...the three of you are the only ones left. You must escape from here..."
The voice was hysterical.
Jiuzaku was stunned for a moment, then he cupped his hands and said in the same pleasant tone:
"Yes, I also think that this clan meeting should be held earlier. It cannot be delayed so late. Our clan cannot let the branch family feel too cold..."
"Kusaku, you idiot..."
"Yes, I do think Tokuma's death is a pity."
"Are you blind, Jiuzaku..."
"Yes, the other branch family members should be arriving soon."
The newly moved clan elders are still struggling.
Rizu said nothing. He shook the hinges on his body carelessly and scratched the itch on his back with the friction of the hinges.
As time passed bit by bit, people from the branch families gradually gathered towards the head of the family's mansion.
Like a sheep entering a wolf's den.
The plan is being implemented in an orderly manner.
…
9 am.
Acting stars performed at the Konoha Theater to a packed house.
…
9:06.
Lord Hokage is inspecting the expansion project in western Konoha. This is a public matter that has been arranged for a long time.
…
9:24.
Lord Danzo presided over the training of ANBU members on the outskirts of Konoha.
…
11 o'clock.
Lord Hokage completed his inspection and returned to the Hokage Building to handle his daily work.
…
12:30.
There was an intermission at the theater event, but many people still clung to the stage and refused to leave.
…
14 o'clock.
Lord Danzo led the members of the ANBU training department back to Konoha, passing by the Uchiha clan.
There was silence.
…
15 o'clock.
Lord Hokage went to the Ninja School to carry out love village themed education.
The ANBU disguised as a group of elementary school students at the desk were all a little distracted.
what happened?
Is the news that Uchiha is planning a coup false?
The Uchiha clan...why haven't they come to attack Hokage-sama?
What are they waiting for?
…
The sun is thinning in the western mountains, making the shadows very long.
There are only a few people on the streets of Konoha. There are only empty green mailboxes and white plastic bags wrapped around telephone poles.
The villagers were either attending the Hyuga clan meeting, going to the theater to watch a play, or they were tinkering with some unknown idea in the clan area. In general, there were very few people on the road.
The world is peaceful.
Until, a young boy with yellow hair walked alone on his way home from the theater while rubbing his belly.
"very hungry……"
I was so hungry after watching the show that the performing star on the stage almost lost his voice and didn’t know why he kept going.
The more I read, the less interesting it becomes. Go home and eat instant noodles!
Naruto hummed a song he heard from the theater and jumped up and down on the deserted street.
…
To be honest, it is not that no one in Konoha has considered him, but even if the Uchiha are given eight more courages, they are unlikely to kidnap Naruto in full view of the theater.
The Uchiha wanted to make a coup, but they did not want to destroy Konoha. This arrangement was more because they were afraid that the aftermath of the battle between Konoha and the Uchiha might accidentally affect Naruto. Therefore, although they arranged for Iruka to bring him to the theater, But when it comes to the level of dedication, that’s really all.
This is something Konoha neglected, but it is the key to Uchiha breaking the situation.
Looking at the little ghost jumping on the street, some people in the darkness seemed to see a peerless beauty, and their eyes widened.
"Finally found...Uzumaki Naruto."
"Let him come a little further - there are patrolling ANBU over there."
"I can't wait any longer! If I wait any longer, I'll run away, now!!"
Following the order, Naruto felt three big men suddenly jump out in front of him. Before he knew what was going on, he only felt a pain in his neck and fainted.
"withdraw!"
One of them picked up Naruto and disappeared directly.
…
If the jinchuriki dies, the tailed beast will also die, but the tailed beast will be resurrected somewhere in the world in the future, but the jinchuriki will not.
Taking off the tailed beast is not an easy task.
At least it's not something that a few ordinary Uchihas hiding somewhere in Konoha can do.
Even the Nine-Tails Rebellion originally planned by Obito still took advantage of the damage to the seal when Kushina gave birth to quickly peel off the Nine-Tails.
The current Nine-Tails seal is still very complete, so it will take more time.
At this moment when Konoha was still waiting for Uchiha to attack, Uchiha Fugaku in the secret room looked at Uzumaki Naruto who was sent to him, the complex color in his eyes flashed away.
"Guard the entrance. Anyone who comes will be killed without mercy!"
"Yes." The tribesmen shouted in unison.
Fugaku looked at his palm.
It just so happens that the tail-releasing seal that peels off the tailed beast is one of the Uchiha family secrets.
"Sorry."
Fugaku put his hand on Naruto's abdomen, not knowing whether he was apologizing to Naruto in front of him or to everyone in Konoha for the misfortune that was about to happen to them.
Unlock the tail seal!
The next second.
"Ah -" Naruto suddenly opened his eyes and struggled hard, but he was restrained tightly.
A moment.
Fugaku found himself standing in front of a huge water cage.
Turn around.
An extremely manic roar exploded in his ears.
"Yu——"
"wisdom--"
"--Wave!!"
