At this time, Hyuga Neji's voice interrupted Hyuga Jing's contemplation; he turned to look at Hyuga Neji and said, "It's Master Neji."
"Brother Jing, what happened? Why does father look so worried?"
Hyuga Neji came in front of the Hyuga Mirror and asked.
"The Kumogakure delegation asked the clan leader to pay for the life of the Kumogakure ninja who died in the clan land last night, and the Third-generation leader agreed."
Hinata Jing said with a heavy face.
"How could this happen? That Cloud Ninja broke into our Hyuga clan and kidnapped Miss Hinata. Doesn't the Third Hokage know about this?"
Hyuga Neji said in disbelief.
"It is said that the Cloud Ninja threatened to tear up the peace treaty, so the Third Hokage had no choice but to agree to the Cloud Ninja's rude request."
Hinata Jing said.
"Damn Cloud Ninja, how despicable!"
Hyuga Neji shouted angrily.
Then, he said, "Brother Jing, the family will definitely not accept this unreasonable request, right?"
Hinata Jing smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "Ningji, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the family to disobey the orders of the Third Hokage."
"Doesn't that mean that Uncle will die, and Miss Hinata will be extremely sad!"
Hyuga Neji couldn't help but clench his fists and said with an expression of disbelief.
"Right now the clan elders are discussing with Lord Rizu. Hopefully they can come up with a solution."
Hinata Jing said.
At this time, in the residence of the Hyuga clan leader, all the elders from the main family and branch families arrived.
The atmosphere in the room was solemn and depressing, and the elders from both the main family and the branch family all had angry expressions on their faces.
Hyuga Hiashi sat to the left of Hyuga Hiashi. He looked at the elders in front of him and asked, "What do you think of the Third Generation's request?"
After a moment of silence, the head elder of the clan, Hyuga Tomonori, spoke up: “I cannot accept the Third Generation’s request. This is a huge insult to our Hyuga clan.
We Hyuga clan were the victims of the Kumo ninja kidnapping incident last night. Now we are asking the head of our Hyuga clan to pay for the life of the kidnapped Kumo ninja. This is simply ridiculous."
"The Great Elder is right, the kidnapping Cloud Ninja deserves to die!"
"Chief, we must not agree to Sarutobi Hiruzen's request, otherwise our Hyuga clan will become a joke in the entire Konoha, no, in the entire ninja world!"
Chapter 345: Hinata Mirror Seeking Help
Uchiha Guard.
The two guards stationed at the gate couldn't help but show surprise when they saw the figure approaching them.
"I'm looking for Uchiha Yuan."
Hinata Jing said.
The two guards looked Hinata Jing up and down, then waved their hands to signal him to pass.
On the way to Uchiha Yuan's office, many surprised and inquiring eyes were cast at Hinata Jing.
Due to the bad reputation of the Uchiha clan, there are basically no outsiders joining the guard team except the Uchiha clan on weekdays.
Now that an outsider has appeared, and he is the Hyuga who has always been competing with the Uchiha, he naturally attracted a lot of attention.
The top of the security building.
Uchiha Fugaku watched Hyuga Kagami walk into the security building, and thought to himself: It's Hyuga Kagami, Hyuga Hizashi's personal bodyguard. He seems to have a close relationship with Yuan. He came here most likely because the Kumo Ninja asked Hyuga Hiashi to pay for his life.
Then, a complicated look appeared on Uchiha Fugaku's face.
[Yuan, is everything as you expected? ]
Uchiha Yuan's office.
"Yuan, I need your help."
As soon as he entered the door, Hyuga Jing spoke to Uchiha Yuan with an anxious look on his face.
"Jing, sit down first."
Seeing Hyuga Jing, Uchiha Yuan smiled and gestured for him to sit down.
Uchiha Yuan's smile instantly swept away Hyuga Jing's inner anxiety. He said helplessly and annoyedly: "Yuan, you should have known about the rude request of the Cloud Ninja."
"Ah."
Uchiha Yuan nodded slightly in response.
"Then you know that the Third Generation has already agreed to the Cloud Ninja's request. He only gave the clan leader two days to consider it and required the clan leader to make a response that would satisfy the Cloud Ninja."
Hinata Jing said angrily.
"Sarutobi Hiruzen never disappoints when it comes to disappointing people."
Uchiha Yuan sneered.
Then, he comforted Hyuga Jing, "Jing, don't worry, the Kumo Ninja's distortion of right and wrong not only humiliates you Hyuga, but also insults us Uchiha.
After all, Konoha's security patrol is the responsibility of our security team. Don't we know what happened last night?
I have already talked to the clan leader, and the Uchiha will stand up and support the Hinata in this matter."
Uchiha Yuan's words spread out of the office and were heard by the Uchiha people working nearby, and immediately they all showed a stern look on their faces.
"This is really great!"
Hearing this, Hinata Jing couldn't help but say happily.
But soon a trace of worry appeared on his face, and he frowned and said: "The Third Hokage has already agreed to the Cloud Ninja's request. Will Uchiha's move anger him?"
Uchiha Yuan laughed, and then said nonchalantly: "So what if I anger him, we Uchiha are fearless.
What's more, we are on the right side. Kagami, do you think Sarutobi Hiruzen's request to you Hyuga is right?"
"Of course not, that's ridiculous!"
Hinata Jing said with an indignant look on his face.
"Jing, can the Hyuga clan leaders come up with a strategy now?"
Uchiha Yuan asked.
"The clan leader and the elders were still discussing before I left."
Hinata Jing said.
"Jing, go back and tell Chief Hiashi that I will go to the Hyuga clan's territory tonight to meet with him and see if he agrees."
Uchiha Yuan said.
"I understand."
Hinata Jing nodded seriously, then said goodbye and left in a hurry.
After Hinata Jing left, a security guard came to inform Uchiha Yuan that the clan leader had summoned him.
The office of the captain of the garrison.
"Yuan, I heard that Hinata Jing is close to you. Is he here to ask for your help?"
Uchiha Fugaku asked.
"Yes, I plan to meet with Hyuga Hiashi tonight. If Hyuga Hiashi cooperates, that would be best. If he doesn't, it won't affect my decision."
Uchiha Yuan said.
“Yuan, several elders in the family disagree with your decision to support Hinata.
They thought this was a great opportunity to embarrass the Hyuga clan and to deal a heavy blow to their arrogance."
Uchiha Fuyue said.
"The views of the elders are too short-sighted. Chief, as I just said, even if Hyuga Hiashi disagrees to cooperate, it will not affect my decision.
I decided to support Hinata. On the one hand, it was to win over Hinata, and on the other hand, it was also for the other ninja clans in the village to see.
If the Third Generation can force the Hyuga clan to sacrifice today because of the threat from the Cloud Ninja, then he can also force other ninja clans to sacrifice tomorrow for other reasons.
I don't think any ninja would be willing to be forced to make sacrifices."
Uchiha Yuan said.
"You are right, so I suppressed the opposition of those elders."
Then, Uchiha Fugaku looked at Uchiha Yuan with a serious expression and said: "Yuan, just go for it. The future of the Uchiha clan is in your hands."
"Don't worry, Patriarch. I won't let you down."
Uchiha Yuan said very solemnly.
Konoha Shopping Street.
Uchiha Yuan walked into a tavern on the corner of the street and went straight to a private room.
"Lord Yuan!"
There were already several people sitting in the private room, and they all stood up when they saw Uchiha Yuan pushing the door open.
"Kino, sea, flowing wind..."
Uchiha Yuan slowly glanced at everyone in the room and called out.
"Master Yuan, I wonder what you want us to meet about?"
After everyone sat down one by one, Yamanaka Kino asked.
"I am here regarding the affairs of the Hyuga clan."
Uchiha Yuan said.
Upon hearing this, Yamanaka Kino's expression changed slightly; the others also frowned and remained silent.
Uchiha Yuan has been paying attention to everyone's expressions. He continued: "Everyone should have known what happened to the Hyuga clan. What do you think about it?"
Akimichi ate the barbecue in front of him with big mouthfuls, his mouth full of grease. As he ate, he said, "I heard that the Cloud Ninja wanted the Hyuga clan leader to pay for the life of the Cloud Ninja who died in the Hyuga clan. The Cloud Ninja are indeed a group of despicable bastards."
Yamanaka Kino filled the glass in front of him, then put down the bottle and said, "Uncle Haiyi and I were both incredulous when we heard this, and we couldn't understand why the Third Generation would agree to such an impolite request from the Cloud Ninja."
Gekkou Liufeng picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank it all in one gulp. Then he said, "I feel depressed and angry about the fate of the Hyuga clan."
"Damn you Kumo Ninjas, how dare they!"
"I wonder how the Hyuga clan will react. They should be very unwilling. It was the Kumo ninja who coveted the Byakugan and kidnapped their main family's young lady, but they are expected to make an apology."
Hearing what everyone said, Uchiha Yuan raised his hand to signal for silence; then he swept his sharp eyes around and said, "The Cloud Ninjas are the enemies of Konoha, it is not surprising that they do such shameless things.
But the one who disappointed us the most was probably the Sandaim who agreed to the Cloud Ninja's rude request.
The Kumo Ninja's actions not only humiliated the Hyuga clan, but also trampled on the reputation of Konoha and all of our ninja clans."
Uchiha Yuan's words instantly plunged the private room into silence, because he pointed the finger directly at the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Chapter 346: The main family and the branch family, brothers and brothers
The atmosphere in the private room began to become depressing due to the long silence of everyone.
Finally, as Qiu Daohai finished eating the barbecue in front of him, he reached out to wipe the grease from the corner of his mouth, and then spoke to break the silence in the private room.
"I think what Master Yuan said is correct. What the Sanda did was wrong. His actions can be said to be a betrayal of the Hyuga clan."
Qiu Daohai said carelessly and without any scruples.
"Hai, be careful with your words!"
Yamanaka Kino spoke up hastily, fearing that Akimichi Kai would say more inappropriate remarks.
Uchiha Yuan glanced at Yamanaka Kino and said, "Kino, do you agree with what the Third Generation did to the Hyuga clan?"
"Master Yuan, sigh..."
Yamanaka Kino sighed helplessly, and then said under the gaze of Uchiha Yuan: "I naturally disagree with the decision of the Third Generation, but our opposition cannot affect the village leaders at all."
Looking at Yamanaka Kino, Uchiha Yuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
