Konoha: Archers of the Hyuga family

"Ahem...it's not enough~"

Moonlight Gale got up from the ground and wiped the blood from his mouth.

The powerful and heavy kick just now made his vision a little blurry, with a black smoke area on the edge, and it was a little difficult to breathe...

The situation was terrible.

His body was severely injured, his strength and speed were inferior to those of his opponent in all aspects, and his ninja sword was also disarmed... In his current state, he had almost no chance of winning even if he had a handy weapon.

Moreover, the opponent has only used one sand clone so far.

There may be sand hidden in his clothes to protect his body. Before he was familiar with his sword skills, he used the knife to cut his body several times. The touch was the same as when he stabbed the sand clone just now...

Obviously, the two are not on the same level.

But the third generation Hokage and the fourth generation Kazekage were in the stands. It would be too cowardly to admit defeat. At least... at least hold on for a while. Even if they lose, they will cause a little trouble to the other party, and then they will be defeated openly.

First, retrieve the ninja sword on the sand pile...

……

Hinata Kumokawa yawned.

It's not that the fighting is boring, physical skills have always been the most entertaining, and Moonlight Hayate's swordsmanship is also very good... The reason why he yawns is simply because he is sleepy.

One morning's rest time is really not enough.

After all, I didn't get a good rest during the Chuunin exams, and then I stayed up for two more days and one night, and I felt exhausted as soon as I relaxed.

Glancing around, Hinata Kumokawa leaned on his mother and began to take a nap...

When he opened his eyes again, Moonlight Gale had already lost, and there were two unknown people on the field...

"Isn't it boring, Yunchuan?"

Hinata Ling naturally knew that her son was napping and did not wake him up.

"No, I'm just too sleepy..."

Hinata Kumikawa rubbed his eyes, stood up and stretched. From the corner of his eye, he saw a familiar face... It was Illya. She was sitting on the stand to the right of Hinata Kumikawa. The daimyo's concubine and The samurai seemed to be nearby.

"Mom, I'll go find Illya."

"...Don't do anything inappropriate."

Hinata Ling was a little worried that her son would anger the daimyo because of his beauty.

"Do not worry."

Hinata Kumokawa nodded.

Illya had already noticed him and smiled at him. The people next to her also looked over and cast unkind glances... It is worth mentioning that the Crown Prince was also there.

The child was also very reluctant, and it was probably the task of the elders.

"Sorry, I didn't sleep well last night and didn't see you..."

"Are you the knife maker?"

The prince lay on the railing and looked at each other with his concubine... It seemed that the daimyo's concubine had informed the prince about Hinata Kumikawa's refusal to make a tanto, and might have added fuel to the fire.

The attitude is obviously hostile...

"I'm not a knife maker."

Since he had a bad attitude, Hinata Kumokawa naturally didn't show much respect and replied very coldly.

She protected him from being hunted down a few months ago, and now he still has to look at his bad face... Originally, Hinata Kumokawa had a bad impression of the Daimyo Crown Prince because of Illya's incident, even though he was also a victim of this incident. .

After all, both Illya and him were tools for political marriage.

But knowing the truth, it didn't stop Hinata Kumikawa from rolling his eyes at him with a meaningless action, and now he started with such a rush... the first impression was completely ruined.

……

Sensing Hinata Kumikawa's disgust towards him, the prince frowned.

It's exactly what I heard.

This person has no concept of seniority at all. As a future daimyo, even the current Hokage needs to say hello with honorifics when he sees him, but the boy in front of him who is a little shorter than himself doesn't even say hello...

"I am the crown prince of the Fire Country, and she is my fiancée, the princess of the Iron Country."

In order to prevent Hinata Kumikawa from not knowing his identity, the child also emphasized it, mentioned Illya's identity by the way, and then stared at Hinata Kumikawa to see his reaction.

then……

Hinata Kumokawa held the guardrail with one hand, lowered his head slightly and yawned.

"Oh."

"..."

The prince was a little confused and wanted to go back and ask the daimyo's concubine.

Has this man always been so brave?

But Hinata Kumokawa didn't give him this chance. He put his hand on his shoulder like an acquaintance and calmly stopped him from trying to get help from elsewhere.

"I know who you are, Illya and I are friends."

Hinata Kumokawa naturally knows the true identities of the two of them, and there is no need for him to introduce them.

Speaking of which, he and Orochimaru saved Illya.

To sum up, he is Illya's savior.

Then a few months ago, he and a group of Anbu protected the prince to Konoha, and experienced several fights along the way. Rounding off, Hinata Kumikawa can be regarded as one of his saviors...

Although it's because of the mission.

But Hinata Kumokawa did put in a lot of effort, especially in attracting firepower...

Originally, the Akatsuki organization did not know of his existence, and was only hired by Iwagakure to assist them in assassinating the daimyo. As a result, he made the core members of the Akatsuki organization hate him to death.

Without him, it's hard to say whether the Daimyo family could survive.

Ok……

Sure enough, to save people, you have to show your face and wear a mask to influence others to express gratitude...

"What do you think of Illya?"

Hinata Kumokawa wanted to know what he thought of Illya.

The prince tried to struggle, but found that Hinata Kumikawa's strength was a bit too strong, and he couldn't get away at all... On this occasion, he could not embarrass himself, and still maintained the arrogance of a daimyo heir.

"Boring little girl..."

"It seems you don't like Illya."

"My father doesn't like my mother either. The first wife of a daimyo in the past is a woman he doesn't like. Everything is for the future of the Country of Fire. You are just a swordsman, how can you understand... In addition, if you don't let go, samurai He shouldn’t mind killing the assassin in public.”

After talking about this, Hinata Yunchuan naturally let him go.

He didn't want to have his head fall to the ground during the Chuunin Exams.

Now that the other party's attitude is already known, the next step is Illya's attitude. The two attitudes jointly determine what kind of plan needs to be implemented.

Anyway, good luck...

……

A simple episode.

Hinata Kumikawa once again offended the people around the daimyo. It seemed that since that mission, conflicts would inevitably arise every time he saw the people around the daimyo.

I chatted casually with Illya and agreed to come to my house for dinner in the evening.

Then Hinata Kumokawa was going to tell his mother and go home to sleep.

Although because of the threat from the Daimyo Crown Prince, he is now more awake than ever...

As soon as he walked out of the examination venue, he met Asuma Sarutobi. It seemed that he was specially waiting for Hinata Kumikawa. Kurenai Yuhi and Ebisu's followers were not there.

It's rare to see him alone...
