The Shimada Family's Ninja Journey

It took less than a year for the Kingdom of Fire to go from order to chaos to the completion of the ninja lineup.

However, the expected big clan war dragged on for five years. No one could have imagined that each big ninja clan was really silent for five years.

Although the Hyuga Clan is supported by the Sarutobi Clan, they are ultimately the weakest and the least powerful.

Previously, the Hyuga clan received the least amount of small and medium ninja clan.

Because of this, the Hyuga clan is now putting their lives first, Amitabha, they even wish that the world will be peaceful like this.

But unfortunately, this is just a luxury that exists in fantasy.

In fact, as the strength of the Uchiha clan gradually recovered, the strength of any one of the three major ninja clans overwhelmingly surpassed the alliance between the Hyuga clan and the Sarutobi clan.

Just gnawing on them will also hurt a big ninja.

Out of the consideration of mutual containment, the three clans did not do anything, and even acquiesced that the Hyuga clan had obtained some moderate benefits in the ninja melee.

"Since we can't annex them, why don't we recruit them?"

The resident of the Shimada clan, Hanzo, who is already 13 years old, is explaining his thoughts to his father, Zhongnian and the elders.

"How to recruit them? The Hyuga clan claims to be the pole of the Fire Country. It is not easy to recruit them." The great elder Shimada Hematsu raised his own question.

"For ninjas of different strengths, we need to use different methods to recruit them." Hanzo explained, "We can directly vassalize and annex small ninjas with weak strengths, but for ninjas like the Hyuga clan, we can form a group based on our own. Union of masters."

As soon as Hanzo's voice fell, the conference hall fell into silence.

Everyone was thinking about the feasibility of Hanzo's proposal.

In fact, Hanzo's idea mainly came from a certain "unbreakable" alliance in his previous life.

When the strength of the main body of the alliance occupies an absolute advantage, the power of other members in the alliance can be used by the leader to a large extent.

What the alliance leader needs to pay is nothing more than sharing a certain right to speak of the other party.

Seeing that all the elders were contemplating, Chong Nian said, "Then, according to the usual practice, let's vote with a show of hands. Those who agree to recruit the Hyuga clan raise their left hands, and those who want to continue to wait and see raise their right hands."

Today's Shimada clan already has twelve elders, including Hanzo and Shigenen, a total of 14 people participated in the decision-making.

After hesitating for a moment, everyone finally made their own decisions.

"One, two, three, four" Hanzo counted the elders who raised their left hands one by one.

"Nine." Hanzo was overjoyed, and with his own vote, it happened that nine people were in favor and five people were against.

Now that the high-level meeting has made a decision, even the elders who oppose it will not continue to obstruct it. In short, the next focus of the Shimada clan is to pull the Hyuga clan into their camp.

Speaking of which, although the Shimada clan and the Senju clan formed an alliance five years ago, the conflict of interests between the two clans has intensified as time passed.

Huo Daming also had an amicable attitude towards the struggle between the two clans. Up to now, the covenant between the two clans has existed in name only.

However, this covenant has also achieved its effect. It guaranteed that the Shimada clan would not be besieged by interested people during the ninja melee.

Now the Shimada Clan's high-end combat power overwhelms the Senju Clan, and the Senju Clan is better than the Shimada Clan in terms of ordinary ninjas because they accepted Ikacho.

In this situation, unless there is external pressure to force the two races to cooperate, it is inevitable that the two races will gradually drift apart.

After the meeting, the Shimada clan sent envoys to the Hyuga clan, not only to convey the attitude of the Shimada clan, but also to test the current thinking of the Hyuga clan.

A few days later, the messenger returned to the Shimada clan.

"The head of the Hyuga clan said that it is not impossible to consider the alliance between the two clans, but he hopes that the family can send someone with weight to the Hyuga clan to have a face-to-face interview with them."

As the envoy, the Shimada tribe stood below and said respectfully.

"Patriarch, I don't agree." The fourth elder who has always been the main battler was the first to object, "I think the Hyuga clan just wants to take the opportunity to trick our clan's masters to go to their garrison, and take the opportunity to intercept and kill them."

The rest of the elders didn't speak, but from their faces, Hanzo could see the same worry, and even Shigenen had some doubts about the conditions of the Hyuga clan.

Hanzo knew that he had to convince the elders, otherwise this plan would probably go to waste.

"Fourth Elder, I don't think there is any need to worry about this issue." Hanzo stood up slowly and said, "Even if the person sent to negotiate is intercepted and killed, the remaining strength of the Shimada clan is still enough to destroy the Hyuga clan.

If the Hyuga Clan does this, it is undoubtedly helping Senshou and Uchiha out of the fire. Why would the Hyuga Clan do such a thing that harms themselves and benefits others. "

"Then who should we send to discuss, which elder or who?" The fourth elder was obviously a little angry. He felt that Hanzo was still too naive.

"I."

"what"

Everyone present thought they heard it wrong, and even the Fourth Elder, who still had a hint of anger on his face, was stunned.

Hanzo looked around and said, "That's right, it's me.

As the patriarch, Dad is not suitable for taking risks. The reason why the Hinata clan made this request is to see the sincerity of our clan and how much we value this covenant. Since this is the case, it is most suitable for me to go. "

It is true to say so, but Hanzo is not only the young patriarch, but also one of the only two members of the Black Dragon Mark tribe in the Shimada clan. He has a special status, and most elders think it is inappropriate to let Hanzo take risks.

"Let him go." At this time, it was the Fifth Elder who stood up and supported Hanzo.

Among the elders, the Fifth Elder, who once fought with Hanzo, had the best personal relationship with Hanzo.

"I think there is nothing wrong with the Young Patriarch's analysis. The risks of this negotiation are low, and if it succeeds, the benefits will be extremely high. Why don't you agree?" The fifth elder asked, "As for your worries, in the final analysis, they are just speculations, but There were no clues as evidence.”

Everyone was silent for a while. Indeed, their objection was not based on a well-founded analysis like Hanzo, but just out of instinctive distrust.

"Since everyone insists on their opinions, let's follow the usual practice and vote with a show of hands." Chong Nian finally said.

Unexpectedly, the senior senior elders in the top rank all voted against it, but the newly promoted elders supported Hanzo's opinion.

In the end, the score of pros and cons was 7:6, leaving only Chung Nian yet to vote.

Both sides looked at him immediately.

The final decision rests in Chong Nian's hands.

If he supports, the two parties will pass 8:6, Hanzo's plan, if he opposes, the two sides will have a 7:7 tie, but as the patriarch, his vote can determine the winner in the event of a tie.

Therefore, the new year vote is very important.

"Hanzo has grown up, maybe, let him give it a try." Looking at his son with a worried face, Chung Nian suddenly made a decision.

In the end, the Shimada clan decided that Hanzo would lead two elders to go to the Hyuga clan to convey goodwill to the Hyuga clan.

But what they didn't expect was that at the same time, the Senju Clan also sent the heir Senju Hashirama and two elders to the Hyuga Clan as envoys, hoping to win over them.
