The King of Shadows

Chapter 110 The Caged Bird and the Curse
Under the blue sky and white clouds, the boy silently looked up at the sky.

"One day when I was four years old, I left this taboo mark on my head..."

Hyuga Ningji said quietly, his voice was so cold that people could ignore the warmth of the sun: "That day coincided with Konoha's celebration, and the ninjas of the cloud country who had been fighting with Konoha for many years came to conclude an alliance treaty. I went to the celebration, but there was only one clan who didn't go... that is the Hyuga clan, because that day was the third birthday of the eldest son of the main family."

Everyone listened attentively, and they were all curious about the story.

Only Hyuga Hyuzu's face was slightly ugly, after all, it was the secret of the Hyuga family, so it was extremely embarrassing to be exposed to the sun like this.

Ningji Hyuga stared at Xueshenyue coldly, pointed at herself and said, "The eldest son of the clan is naturally Miss Hinata... And when she was three years old, I was branded with this curse and became a 'bird in a cage. ', that is, the person who separated from the Hinata family."

Xue Shenyue's heart was churning endlessly, but there was no strange expression on her face: "What does that strange curse mark mean?"

Hinata Ningji heard the words, and there was a little pain in his eyes: "This curse seal is not just a decoration, but an absolute death threat to the branch family from the main family... They can use this curse seal to easily destroy the members of the branch family. The cranial nerves, of course, can easily kill us."

The hatred on his face is getting stronger and stronger: "Only death can unlock this curse seal, and it can also seal the ability of Baiyan...Because the Hyuga clan has the best blood succession boundary, there are not a few people who plot evil against it... "

Xue Shenyue shook her head lightly, then took the words and said: "To put it bluntly, this curse seal is created to make the members of the branch family sacrifice their lives to protect the main family, to be utterly devoted to the main family, and to permanently protect the blood succession boundary of the Hyuga clan. An efficient system came out.”

He closed his eyes silently, hiding the fluctuations in his eyes.

What is the difference between what the head of the Hyuga clan does and what Danzo does... This kind of practice of using people as tools to control other people's lives... is really disgusting!
"Later, that happened..."

Hyuga Ningci paused for a moment, and his expression gradually became sad: "Hehe...my father...died at the hands of the clan family."

"what!"

In the auditorium, everyone was in an uproar.

Ningji Hyuga lowered his eyes, and said: "That night, someone came to kidnap Miss Hinata, but fortunately, Mrs. Hizuru arrived in time and ended up with that person... who knows, that person just formed an alliance with Konoha Ninjas from the Kingdom of Clouds..."

"Afterwards, the Kingdom of Clouds blamed Konoha for breaking the contract on the grounds that its own ninja was killed, and made many unreasonable demands. As a result, disputes were inevitable and almost led to war..."

Xue Shenyue opened his eyes and frowned. Based on his understanding of politics and the handling style of the three generations of Hokage, he seemed to be able to infer the next development.

"However, Konoha, who regards peace as the most precious... finally made a deal with the Kingdom of Clouds."

Neiji Hyuga sneered and said: "The condition of the Kingdom of Clouds is that Konoha should hand over the body of the Hyuga Clan who owns the white-eyed blood continuation limit, that is, Mr. Nizuzu... and Konoha also agreed."

Hinata Hanabi in the stands lost her voice: "No way! Father..."

Hinata Hizuru closed his eyes directly, and the third generation at the top also lowered his eyes.

In the arena, Xue Shenyue glanced up silently.

This is what that position must bear, even if the conscience is condemned, even if you don't want to do it emotionally, even if... you know that you will be spurned by everyone after the incident, but... as long as it is right, you must carry it out. This is game between nations.

Neiji Hinata's voice was so gloomy that it was frightening: "Obviously the one who wanted was Master Nizuzu, but in order to protect the clan, the one who died was Hinata Hizuru's substitute—my father!"

Everyone was stunned.

"Hehe... If you want to get rid of this taboo seal, there is no other way but death..."

Ningji Hyuga smiled lowly: "They are obviously a pair of twin brothers with equal strength, but because of the difference in birth order... the fate of each other has been decided in this way."

His expression was hidden in the shadows, only a sneer could be heard: "And in this match, it's like my father was born a little later... Your fate was already decided when you were going to fight me. "

Hyuga Ningji raised his head, looked down at Xue Shenyue, his eyes seemed to be facing ants: "You are destined to lose to me... Destined!"

"Nothing is predestined, no matter what, you can only know by trying."

Under the sun, the boy still said so.

Ningji Hyuga put his forehead guard back on with his eyes closed, straightened his long hair, and said indifferently, "What a stubborn guy..."

Swish!
He rushed forward suddenly, and under the surprised eyes of everyone, he sent Xue Shenyue flying with a bang, and then turned around and left without looking at it: "Examiner, the competition is over here...Hmph, naive guy..."

Bang!
At this moment, a soft sound came from behind, and there was an uproar in the stands at the same time.

Ningji Hyuga frowned and turned her head, but was surprised to find that Xue Shenyue, who was originally beaten by him, had disappeared at this moment!

"How is this going?"

"Why did Xueshenyue suddenly disappear..."

"White mist... Could it be that the one just now was a shadow clone?"

"Impossible, how can there be a shadow clone so durable..."

……

Everyone whispered and talked a lot.

Bang!
At this moment, on the other side of the venue, a burst of white mist flashed past, revealing the same figure in the windbreaker.

It's not as embarrassing as before, but simple and clean.

Shikamaru, Ino, Hinata and all those who were looking forward to Xue Shenyue's victory showed surprise at this moment.

And other people's discussions became even louder, and no one knew why there was such a sudden reversal.

"It turns out...it's like this..."

On the other hand, Hinata Ningci stared at him blankly for a long while, and then said with an ugly expression, "You actually fooled me... In fact, what I found out at the beginning...is your real body, right?"

Everyone was surprised.

Xue Shenyue shrugged her shoulders and smiled, spread her hands and said, "I told you several times earlier, don't jump to conclusions so early, and... it's not good for you to be so distracted."

Ningji Hyuga was startled, but found three figures in the field of vision at the next moment. All the chakra in their bodies surged and mobilized to their mouths, and the hand seals seemed to have been completed! ——
Since one of his avatars can not disappear after being hit by my Eight Diagrams 64 Palms, then the other three will naturally not disappear...Why didn't I notice this immediately...Damn...——Neiji Hinata with sweat on his forehead ——
