Konoha: The young son-in-law of the Hyuga family

Sagi Castle,

It is the most prosperous city in the Fire Country except for Kyoto City.

The center of a country is often the center of a country's economic lifeline.

The closer to the central area, the more difficult it is to blend in.

This is a city where nobles, ninjas, officials, business groups, and samurai are chaotically intertwined.

Although it is not as good as Kyoto, which is divided into inner and outer cities, the living environment in it is also very particular.

in the city,

The people living in the outer ring area are some ordinary families, which are quite ordinary.

But the area in the inner circle is completely different. Only some nobles, officials, and wealthy consortiums are eligible to purchase a real estate and occupy a place in the center of the city.

Just like naming this city, the Zuo Mu family, who used to be a general, also took root in this inner circle.

"The Sagi clan should be ordinary people, right?"

Inner area of ​​Sagi Castle,

On top of a beautiful and luxurious tea house, Xingcai was hugging the old cat, and casually observing the passing streets below from the position of the window.

At this moment, her dress has changed, she is no longer the peasant woman she was before, but drinking tea and resting in this teahouse as a handsome young man.

It is extremely simple for a ninja to dress up as a man, and it is definitely not the kind of clumsy disguise in movies and TV dramas.

There are even traces of her role as the young master of a second-rate business group in the Kingdom of Fire, and she is somewhat famous.

"The Sagi clan is a family composed of ordinary people. Even if their ancestors were generals of the Land of Fire, he is just an ordinary person after all, and now is the era of ninjas."

Sitting next to Xingcai, the old cat turned his cat's head in confusion, looked at the person beside him and asked, "But why do they still occupy such a huge power in the country after so many years?" ?”

There was a little respect in the puzzled tone.

Following Hinata Xingcai during this period of time, the old cat can be regarded as feeling the true master-student relationship,

Along the way, Hinata Xingcai taught him a lot of things, and she was extremely patient. It was completely different from Ryosuke's violent teaching. It made him feel like returning to the time when his mother taught him hunting skills when he was a kitten. feel.

"Unfortunately, I can't answer your question."

But unfortunately, in the eyes of the old cat, Hyuga Xingcai shook her head like a mother, "The situation of these nobles is very complicated. Even if I get some relevant information, I can't guess the reason. Regarding this issue, maybe you You can ask Master Ryosuke."

Regarding her reply, the old cat was obviously a little puzzled, "But as a person trusted by Mr. Liangjie, you should have obtained the authority to use the intelligence agency in the clan, right?"

"But this question can't be figured out just by knowing some information." Hinata Hoshicai kept her eyes on the street below inadvertently, "In the long history of the Kingdom of Fire, several daimyos have been changed."

"The change of these daimyos is either the transmission of blood, or the success of talents, but without exception, these daimyos come from various families, and there is no such thing as being born from ordinary people."

"That's why every daimyo maintains a respectful and humble attitude towards the aristocratic family after taking office."

After a pause, her tone became a little serious, with a warning, "The world of these ordinary people is sometimes more complicated than our ninjas."

"If you offend some powerful guys, you don't even know who you offended, and you will get into a lot of trouble for no reason, and then you will be engulfed by endless hunting and besieging."

"You have to remember one thing, don't underestimate ordinary people without force just because you have strong force!"

"Is it that exaggerated..."

The old cat half-closed its cat's eyes, staring at the bottom of the teahouse, on the closed door of Zuo Mu's house.

He didn't understand why this group of people with no force value had anything to be afraid of.

No matter when you are a cat or when you enter human society, what you see is the rule that the strong are respected. Only the strong can be respected and understood. This is an inevitable fact.

Ever since he awakened the ability to transform and felt the continuous powerful force, he was somewhat swollen.

It's not that the old cat doesn't understand the world and the power of ninjas.

Instead, as a cat,

As a member of Konoha Village, the top force in the ninja world, he knows the power of ninja very well.

When he was a wild cat, he had seen the power of human beings, and after becoming a domestic cat, he had seen the power comparable to gods, from Ryosuke.

But even so, after awakening the power that belongs to the devil fruit, the old cat still set himself in a very high position,

Even in some aspects, such as basic data such as physical toughness, muscle strength, and nerve speed, he felt that he was stronger than veteran ninjas like Hyuga Hyuzu patriarch and Xingcai teacher.

If it weren't for his lack of illusion and combat experience, he even felt that he would have the power to fight against Hokage, whom he never dared to think about.

"you……"

Seeing the old cat's appearance, Hyuga Xingcai wanted to warn something.

But before she could speak, the closed door of Zuo Mu's house suddenly opened below.

Immediately afterwards, a lazy figure came out from the door at random,

Behind him, followed by a few nodding figures.

Then, the person who came out first seemed to say something to the people behind him, probably to stop them from following. This made the people behind him hesitate, but they stopped obediently. Footsteps, did not follow this lazy guy out.

The moment he saw the lazy man going out, Hyuga Xingcai instinctively looked away and turned his sights to other people on the street.

Because people who are strong enough, even if they don't have any special abilities themselves, can clearly feel them when they are stared at by others, and some people can even use this method to catch people who are spying on them who is it.

Therefore, she chose to avoid her eyes, and only used peripheral vision for general surveillance.

"The target appeared, with red hair, a broken arm, and a samurai sword pinned to his waist."

With a very small voice, Hyuga Xingcai whispered to the old cat beside her.

And soon, when the old cat turned his cat's head to take a look at the target person, she reminded again: "Don't look too intently, it shows that you are a ninja cat."

"But I'm just an ordinary cat in appearance."

Squatting by the window, the old cat licked his furry soles, wiped them on his face and washed his face, "As long as I don't talk and don't use Chakra, can he still read my heart and know that I have actually understood human nature?"

As he said that, he also looked at some other people on the street, "Do you need me to help you pass on some information to others?"

On this street below,

Or the two old men playing chess at the stone table by the bridge, or the loud street peddler, or even a noble lady with a puppy, these are all members of their team, but they are all the same as Hinata Like Xingcai, she is disguising herself in different ways to conceal her identity.

Some time ago, after getting the traces of the outsiders, they followed all the way,

Originally, they thought that the target of this outsider was the city of Kyoto, the Daming Prefecture.

But after entering the Sagi Castle, his whereabouts slowly came to a halt, and after careful inquiring through illusions, he found out that the red-haired samurai actually lived in the Sagi family's mansion.

"Need not!"

Hearing Lao Mao's proposal, Hyuga Xingcai severely interrupted his thoughts, "Be careful and prudent, it has always been the tradition of our Hyuga clan, I don't want you to become the first reckless man in our clan."

But then, she thought that this was the old cat's first mission, and her serious expression began to ease, "It's better to be careful, you have to be very careful about this outsider, it's best... Treat him as the same existence as Ryosuke-sama."

"At least, I can see from Master Ryosuke's reply letter that he attaches great importance to this outsider, especially in terms of his force."

"His original words suggested that if we were discovered, we should not carry out round-ups with strong means, but choose to evacuate directly. After getting along with him for a while, you should understand the weight of these words."

Originally, the old cat, who was still licking its paws leisurely, froze, and slowly stopped the movements of its hands, restraining the ease and casualness of its body.

Ryosuke is aware of his strength.

Even Ryosuke told them so solemnly that they had to evacuate as soon as they were found, so the old cat couldn't help not paying attention to the silly-looking red-haired man below.

While they were talking, the red-haired man below had already stepped forward and wandered along the street.

It can be seen from his aimless appearance that he is indeed wandering, without any purpose, like...

After a foreigner came to the Land of Fire, he wanted to understand the local customs and customs here. As a traveler, he was leisurely and at ease.

However, his leisurely attitude has a lazy beauty in the eyes of others.

Wearing a white shirt, the buttons on it are casually fastened,

Strong muscles filled with a sense of security are revealed from between the seams of the clothes, and a long black cape of the same height is worn on the body,

Although he is wearing a pair of old slippers, but with the delicate and weird long sword on his waist, it makes people feel like a majestic commander. The army and horses followed closely behind.

I don't know why, but as long as this man stands there, he looks particularly eye-catching and dazzling.

It is also for this reason that Hyuga Xingcai's observation is relatively easy, because most of the people on this street are secretly observing him. If they don't follow, they will have a sense of déjà vu on the contrary.

By the time the man walked out of this street and headed for East Street, many people were secretly discussing his identity.

Immediately after the man left the street, there were ladies walking their dogs and vendors walking the streets.

"Blind eyes!"

On the teahouse, Hyuga Xingcai didn't get up to leave.

The identity she plays is different from the other two, and it is not suitable for her to check out and leave suddenly.

However, this did not affect her observation of the situation.

The veins around the eye sockets popped up, and the chakra in Hinata Xingcai's body slowly flowed,

On the street not far away, the figures of noble ladies and street vendors who had just left appeared in her eyes.

Hinata Xingcai's development of white eyes ability is not enough for her to observe objects through perspective. She can only observe the traces of chakra flow through perspective. She cannot detect people without chakra in their bodies.

So she could only rely on observing her companions to confirm the situation of the red-haired warrior.

But even if the red-haired warrior had chakra in his body, she didn't dare to look at the red-haired warrior with blank eyes.

But soon...

Her expression froze.

Without much hesitation, Hyuga Xingcai directly stretched out her palm out of the window, making a casual gesture.

Afterwards, the two uncles playing chess by the river slowly got up, as if the game had ended,

While discussing the chess game just now, they cleaned up the table, and soon left together with the chess equipment, as if they were going home.

But vaguely, the direction they were walking was the street that the red-haired man left.

"Discovered?"

The old cat asked suspiciously.

And Hyuga Xingcai nodded solemnly, "I've been stopped."

In her field of vision just now, the lady walking the dog stopped suddenly. Judging from the body movements revealed by the traces of Chakra in her body, it was as if someone stopped her in front of her.

After all, less than a minute or two had passed, so at first, Xingcai thought it was just a simple strike-up. After all, Liangyi, that is, the companion who played the role of a lady, was pretty good in appearance.

But soon, when the flow of chakra in the noble lady and the street vendors wandering around them stopped, and a situation appeared like being cut off, sealing chakra, or comatose, Hyuga Hoshicai I understand that the identities of the two of them have been exposed.

The old cat's expression changed slightly, how long has passed.

It took only a blink of an eye to leave this street and out of his sight, and this was discovered?

Frowning, Hyuga Xingcai stared closely at the two old chess players who had just received the order to leave, but soon her expression became a little helpless, "It's over... just catch one."

In her field of vision, when the two companions who had just left entered East Avenue and went to the middle section, which was where Ryoi Hinata and the others were, they also lost the ability to move further, similar to the situation of the other two, Suspected to have entered a coma.

"Then... shall we evacuate?"

The old cat's cat face was wrinkled like a steamed bun.

According to Ryosuke's instructions, they will retreat as soon as they are discovered.

But judging from the current situation, their four companions have lost the ability to evacuate, that is to say, if they evacuate, they will give up these four.

After hesitating for a moment, Hyuga Xingcai cast her serious eyes on Lao Mao, "...you go back to the village with the information and ask for support."

"how about you?"

The old cat noticed the hidden meaning in her words.

"I have to go and see...don't worry, listen to me."

Facing the old cat who was eager to speak, Hyuga Xingcai explained calmly without any panic:

"First of all, judging from the fact that the red-haired warrior has kept his hands back, he probably wants to learn some information from us, so we won't hurt our lives for the time being."

"Secondly, I am the head of this unformed legion, that is, your temporary captain, and I am obliged to be responsible for your lives."

"Finally, the information here needs to be passed on by someone, so don't go with me, or go with you, and nonsense like that, now...execute the order!"
