Naruto, the youngest succubus son of the Hatake family

As the snowflakes falling in the sky gradually stopped, children from every family appeared on the streets of Konoha wearing new clothes and playing happily to celebrate the arrival of the New Year.

Under the leadership of the fourth generation Hokage Orochimaru, Konoha Hidden Village has become increasingly prosperous. Whether it is ninjas from the ninja clan, civilian ninjas, or civilians in the village, they all feel that their lives are getting better.

But in this harmonious atmosphere, an incident occurred that could affect the future situation of Konoha.

Within the Hyuga clan.

As the son of the branch head, Hinata Hizashi, Hyuga Neji should have been marked as a caged bird when the daughter of the clan head, Hinata Hizashi, was three years old, and became the bodyguard of Hinata Hinata, the daughter of the clan head.

However, under the influence of a series of factors, the elders of the clan were forced to postpone the engraving ceremony of the caged bird.

To this day, the elders of the clan could no longer tolerate the long-standing family rules of the Hyuga clan being trampled on, so they carried the clan leader on their backs and came to the boundary of the branch family.

"Hyuga Hizashi is here, tell him to come out and see me!"

The name of the person who spoke was Hinata Yaohi. He was over seventy years old, making him the most senior elder of the Hyuga clan.

Beside Hinata Yaori, there were two rickety figures.

Named Hinata Shotai and Hinata Yuma.

The status of the three people in the Hyuga clan is extremely high. Even the Hizu trio, who are the heads of the clan, dare to point their noses and curse.

"Hizashi-sama, he..." Before the branch family member who was being questioned by Hinata Yaori could finish his words, he felt a stinging pain in his head, and then he fell to the ground in pain while covering his head.

"Ah ah ah, it hurts, it hurts. Elder, please let me go. I was wrong. I know I was wrong."

The family member begged for mercy in pain.

After a while, Hinata Yaori canceled the control of the caged bird's curse seal.

"These branch families are just scoundrels. If you don't give them a little color, they won't behave obediently." Hinata Yaori thought in his heart.

If Hyuga Yaohi's initial attitude towards the caged bird was to protect the safety of the Hyuga clan's bloodline, then after decades of time, his heart had long been corrupted by the power of the caged bird's curse seal.

He only needs one thought to make these separated people obey him and beg for mercy and admit their mistakes.

"Hmph, I'll give you a minute. If I hadn't seen that guy Hinata Hizashi, your entire family would have been punished because of him." Hinata Shotai's voice was extremely cold.

"Yes, yes, I'm going to find Hizashi-sama now." The members of the branch family ignored the pain in their brains and climbed up from the ground using their hands and feet, and then ran toward Hizashi's home with staggering steps.

After running for a short distance, the Nabun family members only felt that they had hit something. They raised their heads hard and saw the slightly kind expression of Hinata Hizashi.

"Thank you for your hard work, go and take a rest." Hyuga Hizashi said softly. He could naturally tell that the other party's state was tortured by the Caged Bird Curse Seal.

"Lord Patriarch, they..." The man was just about to remind Hizashi when he saw Hizashi shaking his head, "Go and rest, and leave the rest to me."

Hearing this, the man seemed to be relieved and stopped running, but weakly walked home.

After the branch family member left, Hinata Hizu who was hiding in the shadows walked out, feeling very uncomfortable.

Hinata Hizashi said: "They went too far."

In his opinion, the elders of the Zong family no longer understand the true role of the caged bird.

This is not a curse seal used to punish others at will, but to protect the blood of the Hyuga clan1.

Hinata Hizashi smiled bitterly, "Brother, this is the normal state of family separation."

For the Hyuga branch, everyone in the clan has control over the caged bird. Even he, the clan leader, has the possibility of being punished by the genin of the clan by activating the caged bird.

This is sad.

Hinata Hiashi sighed, "I will change this situation."

Hinata Hizashi said calmly: "I hope so. I have asked Neji to find He Feng and Lord Hokage. I hope the situation will not change too much."

Obviously, Hyuga Hizashi is really worried that the clan's arrogance will drag the branch family into the abyss.

Rizu did not continue to say anything, but continued to hide.

He wanted to see with his own eyes what a branch family head, one whose status was second only to his own, would look like when facing the clan elders.

When Hyuga Hizashi came to Hyuga Yaohi in person, before Hizashi could speak, he felt the caged bird curse seal on his forehead being activated.

Hinata Yuzhen is younger than the two of them, only sixty years old, but at this time, there are seals on his hands and his expression is gloomy.

"Hyuga Hizashi, what do you mean? Does the position of head of the branch make you ignore all the rules of the Hyuga clan?"

Listening to Hinata Yuzhen's arrogant words, Hinata Hizashi lowered his head and relied on his strong willpower to endure the erosion of the caged bird's curse seal on his brain.

However, the Caged Bird Curse Seal directly affects people's brain nerves, which is far beyond what willpower can contend with.

The more Hyuga Hizashi insisted, the angrier the clan elders became.

"No...no..." Hinata Hizashi said through gritted teeth.

"You!" Hinata Yuma increased the punishment of the caged bird curse seal. At this moment, Hinata Hizashi knelt on the ground with one knee.

"Stop!" Hinata Hizu, who was hiding on the side, stood up. Hinata Yuma subconsciously stopped stimulating the curse seal of the caged bird.

Hinata Hizu helped his brother up, while also noticing the other's weak state.

At this time, Hinata Hizashi's forehead was not only full of sweat, but even his clothes were soaked with sweat.

"Elder Youzhen, do you know what you are doing?!" Hinata Hizu showed his majesty as the head of the clan and asked coldly.

For elders like Hyuga Yuma, he can't do anything to them, but if he wants to, he can also make these elders suffer some pain.

After all, he is the clan leader.

"Hmph, I should be asking you this question. As the clan leader, you don't uphold the rules of the Hyuga clan that have been passed down for thousands of years. Instead, you take the lead in ignoring them. Are you going to break the rules of the Hyuga clan that have been passed down for thousands of years!" Hyuga Yuzhen said in a bad tone. .

Hyuga Yaohi also said: "Hizu, as the leader of the clan, you should set an example. Hyuga Neji's caged bird has been delayed for two years. I will personally engrave the caged bird curse seal for Hyuga Neji. The rules of the Hyuga clan are absolutely not allowed to be broken!"

Hinata Shotai's eyes were always on Hinata Hizashi, and he asked: "Where is Hinata Neji?"

Looking at the aggressive three people in front of him, Hinata Hinata's heart dropped to the bottom. Has he still reached this point?

Before that, he had learned about the Fourth Generation Eye's thoughts from He Feng.

Hinata is Konoha's Hinata, and both the clan and branch families belong to Konoha.

If there is a village that wants to protect Byakugan, it is not his turn to rely on a curse seal to protect him.

"Hyuga Neji is here with me, do you old guys have any objections?"
