Chapter 88 Freedom
The history of ninja is that Kaguya, the mother of Black Zetsu, followed Otsutsuki Isshiki to the planet of Ninja World to colonize and expand. Isshiki was a landlord and Kaguya was a maid. Maids were to be sold by the landlord in exchange for food, which is the fruit of chakra. Fortunately, when Kaguya and Isshiki came to this planet, there was already a sacred tree planted here. For the sake of freedom, Kaguya overthrew the rule of the traditional class.
Kaguya asked for help from the consciousness of the sacred tree. With the help of the consciousness of the sacred tree, she killed the landlord Isshiki and ate the fruit of the sacred tree in the unwillingness of the sacred tree. It can be said that the serfs sang. With the death of the slaves and the betrayal of humans, Kaguya became a god from an alien. She ruled the most central place in the ninja world, the country of ancestors, with absolute power and suppressed the rebellion. Although it was cruel, she still maintained her divinity. At this time, Kaguya was half angel and half demon. As time went by, Kaguya's divinity faded and the selfishness of human nature was revealed. The half angel face was also suppressed by the other half of the consciousness, which is now the Kaguya in Hinata's body, but her proud slave owner nature will not change.
Kaguya was worried about the arrival of her family, so she tried to eat the fruit again. She used the chakra seeds of the sacred tree to breed two offspring, Yuyi and Hamura, through humans. However, she was betrayed by her two offspring, and the army she cultivated, White Zetsu, died just after it was born and before it could be upgraded.
Hagoromo was just a ghost in the grave that had been wandering in the human world, but in the eyes of the ninjas who had obtained chakra, he became the Sage of Six Paths. Since he gave his power to Ashura, the conflict had been unstoppable, and Black Zetsu secretly pushed and accelerated the course of history, starting the endless conflict between the brothers.
Hamura chose a different path. He insisted on the traditional system of primogeniture and used it as a foundation to build a system of main and branch families, inheriting the hierarchy in his mother's genes.
The Hyuga clan was deeply marked by this set of ancient rules. As a branch of the descendants of the Moon Otsutsuki, the Hyuga clan not only inherited the powerful power of the Byakugan, but also continued the cruel class system. The boundary between the main family and the branch family was changed to the Hyuga clan after the Moon Otsutsuki Hyuga established a clan in the ninja world. During the Warring States Period, the Byakugan of the Hyuga branch family was installed in the eyes of the enemy. The greatest clan leader of the contemporary era, Hyuga Tennin, developed the S-level sealing secret technique of the caged bird from the sealing technique, under the euphemism of protecting the branch family. He was undoubtedly far-sighted. The Hyuga clan finally did not kill each other like the Moon Otsutsuki, but the life and death of the branch family was completely controlled by the main family.
Two months later, in the quiet and solemn courtyard of the Hyuga mansion, four-year-old Hyuga Hanabi was wearing exquisite family clothes and a small hair accessory, with a child's unique innocence and curiosity in her eyes. She was surrounded by warm smiles and whispers from her sister and other family members, celebrating the first important milestone in her life - her fourth birthday. However, this warmth and joy was like the brightest star in the night sky, fleeting.
As night fell, the flickering candlelight shone on her young face, revealing the outline of her infinite longing for the future. But when the first ray of morning light shyly entered the room, bringing hope for a new day, it also foreshadowed the coming of a storm. Hinata Hiashi's face became more solemn at this moment. He slowly walked into Hanabi's room, holding an ancient and mysterious scroll tightly in his hand.
Hanabi looked up at her father, her eyes full of curiosity and trust in the unknown. She had never expected that this would be a turning point in her fate. Hinata Hiashi sighed softly, and that sigh seemed to contain countless unspoken emotions. Then, he slowly unfolded the scroll and recited the ancient spell in a low and solemn voice.
As the spell sounded, a strange wave filled the air, as if thousands of invisible eyes were watching this scene. A faint glow began to appear on Hanabi's forehead, and a ? pattern gradually appeared. It was the curse mark of "bird in a cage", a slave mark symbolizing bondage and sacrifice. Her eyes changed from initial confusion to incomprehension, and then to deep fear and anger, and her small body trembled slightly due to the fluctuation of emotions.
"Father, why?" Hua Huo's voice was thin, but full of reluctance and questioning. In recent months, her father had been very good to her, so she forgot about it for a while, and the memory of Xue Ye also emerged.
But Hyuga Hiashi just stared at her silently. His deep eyes seemed to contain thousands of words, which finally turned into just one sentence: "This is for the family, for your future."
These words, like a cold sword, pierced through the young heart of Hua Huo. She realized that no matter how hard she struggled, she could not escape this predetermined fate. Tears welled up in her eyes, but she stubbornly refused to let them fall. She bit her lips tightly, turning all her sadness and unwillingness into silent protest.
On the night when the curse was first engraved, it was as if the world had come to Hanabi. The power of the curse was raging in her body, like thousands of invisible hands tearing at her soul, making her feel miserable. The room was shrouded in a depressing atmosphere, and even the air seemed to freeze.
Hinata, the eldest daughter of the Hyuga family, felt an indescribable emotion in her heart after hearing her sister's moan. She hurried to Hanabi's room and stood outside the door, her hands clenched into fists, her nails deeply embedded in her palms, the pain making her temporarily forget her inner struggle.
However, her maternal love and sisterly affection finally overcame her rationality. She took a deep breath and opened the door with heavy steps. She slowly walked to the bedside, looking at the painful Hua Huo with complicated eyes. At that moment, she seemed to see the gentle corner of her heart that had been suppressed for a long time, gradually awakening.
"Hanabi..." Hinata called softly, with a barely perceptible tremor in her voice. She reached out her hand, wanting to touch her sister's forehead and give her some comfort. But Hanabi suddenly opened her eyes, and the eyes that were once full of curiosity and laughter were now filled with anger and unwillingness.
"Why me? Why do I have to endure such pain? And you, as the heir of the main family, can live a carefree life?" Hanabi's voice was weak but full of power. She sat up suddenly, shook off Hinata's hand, and her eyes flashed with determination.
Hinata was shocked by her sister's sudden anger and unwillingness, but she quickly restrained her emotions and regained her iconic calmness and pride. Although Hanabi's reaction was fierce, that was the rule. Whether in the Hyuga family or in the education of her mother Kaguya, the boundary between respect and inferiority must never be crossed.
"Hanabi," Hinata's voice was deep and powerful, with a hint of unquestionable authority, "I understand the pain and unwillingness in your heart, but this is the rule of the Hyuga family. Our fate has been determined since birth. All I can do is not to require you, a branch family, to protect me, but to protect you from further harm."
At this point, Hinata's eyes flashed with a complex emotion. Her love for her sister was deep and sincere, but this love was often covered by her arrogance and indifference. She was used to expressing her care with distance and silence, rather than direct hugs and comfort. In her opinion, this was a necessary means to maintain dignity and order.
However, Hanabi's anger did not diminish at all despite Hinata's explanation. She pursed her lips tightly, her eyes blazing with fire: "I don't want to be a bird in a cage anymore! I want freedom! I want to break this unfair rule! One day, I will make sure that there will no longer be a distinction between the main family and the branch family in Hyuga, so that everyone can breathe equally under the sun."
Hinata's eyes flashed with pain and struggle when she heard this. She slowly approached Hanabi and gently placed her hands on her shoulders. Her tone was both helpless and insistent: "Hanabi, I understand your reluctance, and your anger is justified. But as the head of the family, I shoulder the honor and responsibility of the family. Although the distinction between the superior and the inferior is an old system, it is also part of maintaining the stability of the family."
Hanabi looked up at her sister, her eyes slightly red, her voice choked with sobs: "But sister, have you ever thought about how many people have sacrificed to achieve this kind of stability? Me, Neji-nii, and other children of branch families like me, our dreams and happiness are all bound by these cold rules. I don't want to live like this anymore, I want to fight for a fair future for myself and all the children of branch families."
Hinata sighed, her tone full of helplessness and pity: "Hanabi, your courage makes me proud, but also makes me sad. You are always my sister, I will do my best to protect you, but I will not allow you to break the rules."
After saying that, Hinata hugged Hanabi gently, and let go before Hanabi pushed her away. The two sisters' eyes met under the dim light, and each could feel the conflict and struggle in the other's heart.
Hinata Hanabi is not someone who easily succumbs to fate. In the dead of night, she would secretly practice the Byakugan and the Soft Fist, watering the fire in her heart with sweat and tears. She is no longer just the little girl bound by the "caged bird" curse, she is ready to fight for freedom and dignity.
