Chapter 54: The Shocking Hyuga Incident that Astounded Konoha!
Chapter 54: The Shocking Hyuga Incident that Astounded Konoha!
"Listen up! In this world, the Hyuga clan of the Land of Sun!
In our Empire, there is no distinction of main house or branch house among the Hyuga clan.
The entire Hyuga clan is also recognized by the Empire as one of the most peaceful and amicable clans. We stand united, helping and supporting each other as one."
Empire Neji slowly narrated everything about the Empire's Hyuga clan.
Hyuuga Hiashi listened quietly, and at last, a slight smile curved his lips as he murmured, "It's truly... wonderful. Perhaps this is how the Hyuga clan ought to be...
The existence of the caged bird is, in itself, a mistake.
Initially, I wanted to change this mistake.
But as time went on... I started to take for granted all the privileges that came with being the head of the main house...
What a failure I am.
The main house's current plight is perhaps retribution for our past actions.
And because of this, I can now better understand the branch house's pain.
Thank you, Neji. Go ahead and erase my memories."
Hyuuga Hiashi's face was filled with calmness and relief as he finished speaking.
"Of course.
But... before your memories are wiped away, answer me one question.
Hyuuga Hiashi, you should know the truth behind the Uchiha clan's massacre, right?" Empire Neji asked.
"The truth about the Uchiha clan's annihilation...
Hmph... Are you planning to settle the score? Those high-ranking individuals in Konoha will be in for a tough time then," Hyuuga Hiashi said with a hint of schadenfreude, a slight smile on his face.
"Regarding the truth behind the Uchiha clan's annihilation, I do know a thing or two," he continued.
"Tell us everything in detail," Empire Neji urged.
"Well...
The reason the Uchiha clan was destroyed was ultimately due to the Nine-Tails' rampage. During that incident, a powerful shinobi with a Sharingan eye appeared, creating a rift between Konoha and the Uchiha clan..." Hyuuga Hiashi slowly revealed everything he knew.
After he finished speaking, Empire Obito put Hyuuga Hiashi under a genjutsu to confirm the truth of his words.
Finally, with a gloomy expression, he said, "So that's how it is. Danzo Shimura, Mito Men, Tsunade Senju, and Sarutobi Hiruzen.
In our world, these four old farts were remnants of the era of the Shinobi Nations.
I never expected them to be stirring up trouble here as well.
Because of the Nine-Tails' incident, they suspected the Uchiha clan, constantly targeting them and driving them to the outskirts. Eventually, they even used Uchiha Itachi, a foolish boy, to annihilate the entire Uchiha clan..."
"Oh my! The people from the era of the Shinobi Nations are truly terrifying! Why are they so fond of these conspiracies and tricks?" Empire Rock Lee exclaimed, holding his head in fear.
"These are stubborn impurities!
Danzo Shimura, Mito Men, Tsunade Senju, and Sarutobi Hiruzen—these four bastards deserve to die! It's just a pity that Sarutobi Hiruzen died early. I heard that in this world, he passed away as a hero. How disgusting!" Empire Neji cursed.
"A hero? He doesn't deserve that title! Just wait until my Uchiha clan enters this world.
Danzo Shimura, Mito Men, Tsunade Senju, and Sarutobi Hiruzen—not one of these four bastards will be able to escape! They will all be nailed to the pillar of shame in history, dying in disgrace!" Empire Obito declared vehemently.
"Oh? Now that's something to look forward to!" Empire Neji's interest was piqued.
"That's what villains deserve! For justice! For youth! Roar! The Empire shall prevail! Obito, you can do it!" Empire Rock Lee raised his right fist and roared in encouragement.
Finally, after staying for a long while and completing everything they needed to do, the group prepared to leave.
The next morning.
The sun had just risen.
A group of villagers stepped out of their homes, preparing to begin their daily chores. As they passed by the Hyuga clan's land, they caught sight of the clan members lying on the ground, dried blood and empty eye sockets staring back at them. The villagers couldn't help but let out sharp cries of horror.
"Ah!!!""
Their voices pierced the quiet of Konoha.
In just moments, hundreds, even thousands, gathered around the outskirts of the Hyuga clan's land, gazing from a distance at the scene already surrounded and controlled by a group of ninjas. Murmurs filled the air.
"What happened to the Hyuga clan yesterday? How did they end up like this?""
"Were they attacked by a tailed beast?""
"This is terrifying! So many people have had their eyes gouged out!
Those bloody eye sockets are horrifying!""
"The Hyuga clan is one of the strongest in Konoha, with many powerful ninjas among them. What kind of opponent could do this to them...?""
"They were fine just yesterday, and now look at them...""
"First the Uchiha clan ten years ago, and now the Hyuga...""
"What secrets are hidden within Konoha?""
"Are we in danger, too?"
The crowd's faces were etched with fear and uncertainty.
Suddenly, a voice cried out, "Fire Shadow!"
Everyone gathered around the Hyuga clan's land quickly stepped aside as they turned to look in the direction of the voice.
Tsunade Senju, the Fifth Fire Shadow, strode forward with a group of people, her face grim.
"All medical personnel, treat the Hyuga clan immediately! Hurry!""
She shouted, performing a series of hand seals and summoning a large number of slugs, which immediately began assisting the medical ninjas in providing treatment.
Tsunade herself, along with Shikamaru Nara and Kakashi Hatake, rushed to Hiashi Hyuga's side and roused him.
Hiashi groaned as he woke up, his hands reaching for his eyes as he muttered, "My eyes hurt...so much...I can't see anything...why is this happening...?"
He paused, his hands still on his now-empty eye sockets, a moment of realization dawning on him. "That's right...my eyes were taken."
His voice carried a mix of confusion, regret, fear, and relief.
"Clan Head Hiashi! Tell me! What happened to the Hyuga clan yesterday? Who did this to you? I will not rest until I make them pay!""
Tsunade's voice rang out, filled with anger.
"Yesterday...yesterday..." Hiashi murmured, his mind still hazy.
Then, a piercing wail filled the air.
"Ahhhhhh! My eyes! My eyes! I've lost my eyes!""
"Waaah! My Byakugan!""
"Damn that bastard! That damn bastard took my eyes! I want him dead!""
"Fire Shadow! Fire Shadow, where are you? You must avenge the Hyuga clan!""
"I'm here! Everyone, calm down!
I'm currently speaking with your clan head, Hiashi. Once I know who the culprit is, I will ensure justice for the Hyuga clan!""
Tsunade responded to the panicked and fearful Hyuga clan members, then turned back to Hiashi. "Clan Head Hiashi!"
"Ah...Lady Tsunade...I don't know much about what happened yesterday," Hiashi replied, his voice weak. "It was in the middle of the night.
The Hyuga clan's land was enveloped in a barrier, and our Byakugan lost its power...Then, a man appeared, wearing a black and white robe and a mask...We clashed with him...
In the end, he defeated all of us...""
Hiashi's voice was faint as he recounted the events.
"Wait! A man wearing a black and white robe and a mask? You're saying that a single person did all this to the Hyuga clan?""
Tsunade's eyes widened as she realized the implication of Hiashi's words, and she exclaimed in shock.
