Naruto Time Control

Chapter 254: The Hyuga Clan Incident

Yeruashi, Tsunade and the others continued to play until three in the morning.

In the end, Yeruashi won four times out of six, and Konan was in the lead at the other table.

It should be noted that Konan arrived when Kakashi was already in third place. Having taken his place, she obviously played much better, winning consecutive victories and eventually taking the final first place.

Kurama, who had taken last place, spent the rest of the night biting his claws in irritation.

The next day.

Yeruashi woke up on the couch and rubbed his eyes.

After the game ended, Konan left, while Tsunade and Shizune stayed behind. Rin and Shizune, who were trained in medical ninjutsu by Tsunade and have a pretty good relationship, slept in Yeruashi's room, while Anko slept in Kurenai's room.

Tsunade slept in the room left after Kakashi's escape.

Although there are other rooms, but now the beds in them are not ready, of course, the main reason why Yeruashi slept on the couch was not this. This was due to the fact that Rin, Kurenai and Shizune didn't mind sleeping in the same room as Yeruashi, but they were strongly opposed to him sleeping with the other girls.

As Yeruashi sat on the couch yawning, the door to Kurenai's room opened and out came a sleepy Kurenai in baggy white pajamas.

The poorly buttoned pajamas revealed the slender body of a sixteen year old girl.

Kurenai closed the door softly, then turned her attention to Yeruashi, who was sitting on the couch, and put a finger to her lips in a gesture of silence.

"Shhh..."

"Anko is still asleep."

Kurenai approached Yeruashi and said quietly, "Do you want something to eat? I'll make breakfast."

Yeruashi looked at the sleepy Kurenai and shook his head as he said, "Better sleep well, I'll make something myself, I still have a problem to deal with."

Kurenai said thoughtfully, "You've been asleep for less than four hours, wouldn't it be better to send a shadow clone? Shikaku can take care of everything."

"No, I have to deal with this personally."

Yeruashi stood up and reached out with a smile, smoothing Kurenai's tousled hair, a move that made her blush and lower her head in embarrassment.

With this movement, Kurenai noticed that her pajamas were improperly buttoned and blushed even more, but she didn't button up and muttered under her breath, "Don't forget to rest..."

"Right."

Yeruashi smiled and went to the kitchen.

...

Nine o'clock in the morning.

Hyuga Clan territory.

A large number of people gathered here, filling the spacious courtyard, the crowd numbered at least a few dozen people.

A large number of ninja stood on the rooftops behind the outer wall.

Some of those gathered were members of the Uchiha Clan and wore the uniform of the Konoha Military Police, and some wore the black cloaks of the Shadow Guard.

The Second and Seventh Squads generally dealt with Konoha's internal security.

In addition.

Here some Konoha ninja, led by Shikaku Nara, gathered.

In the center of the courtyard, facing each other, were two groups of ninja, one of them were the newly arrived ninja from Kumogakure and the other group were the ninja of the Hyuga Clan, led by Hyuga Hiashi.

On the ground between them lay the body of the leading ninja of the Kumogakure group.

"As expected from the great clans of Konoha, not only did you treat our leader badly, but you also don't want to take responsibility, which further desecrates his honor.... Even at yesterday's celebration it wasn't just your clan that was there, it seems not even the whole of Konoha was in your eyes."

The ninja at the head of the Kumogakure delegation looked at Hyuga Hiashi and smiled.

Hiashi frowned and said coldly, "I already said that your leader secretly entered our clan's territory at night and tried to kidnap my daughter, of course I didn't step aside, but in the dark there was no way to see a way to stop my attack..."

Last night, someone secretly sneaked into the Hyuga clan's territory in an attempt to kidnap Hinata. Hiashi, of course, considered this person an enemy and without further thought attacked without mercy.

But Hiashi never expected that when confronted with his attack, the attacker would simply freeze in place, making no attempt to resist at all, and die on the spot.

Upon discovering that the intruder was the leader of the Kumogakure delegation, Hiashi was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat. It even seemed to him that someone was deliberately and secretly targeting the Hyuga Clan, because this abrupt death of the leader of the Kumogakure delegation seemed not only abnormal, but also a bit unnatural.

"...I've already said that your leader showed signs of being under control, it's not just my responsibility, maybe someone deliberately attacked him."

"Shots fired!"

The ninjas of Kumogakure looked angrily at Hiashi.

They didn't know if Hiashi's words were true. Although it made them vaguely feel that something had gone wrong, they could not back down in such a situation and continued to press the Hyuga Clan Chief.

Due to the bad relations between Konoha and the Hyuga Clan, it was likely that the Hyuga Clan would be forced to take full responsibility in this matter.

The ninjas of Kumogakure could not pass up such a good opportunity to get hold of the Hyuga Clan's Byakugan.

"I am telling the truth."

Hiashi said coldly and looked at Shikaku, who was standing nearby.

Shikaku remained calmly in his place, not showing much concern, he had already roughly understood the process and the essence of what had happened.

There is no doubt that Hyuga Hiashi could not simply kill the Kumogakure delegation leader, so the secret infiltration of the Kumogakure delegation leader into the Hyuga Clan's territory really happened.

Hiashi's words about the death of the other party do not seem false, at least looking at his behavior and emotions, on the surface he is very upset and thinks the accusations are unfair.

But now it is not so important.

This does not negate the more important fact: the head of the Kumogakure delegation really died at the hands of the Hyuga Clan Chief.

In such an important matter, neither he, nor Hyuga Hiashi, nor the ninja of Kumogakure, can make specific decisions, this must be done by the Fifth Hokage.

"Dear Advisor to the Hokage.... Are you really going to let the Hyuga Clan get away with this? They didn't even participate in yesterday's celebration, completely ignoring the conclusion of peace between us!"

The Kumogakure ninja glared indignantly at Shikaku.

Shikaku remained unperturbed and said, "Don't jump to conclusions, first you must find out the cause of your leader's death, besides, I have already reported what is happening to Hokage-sama!"

He knew perfectly well what he had to do in such a situation: it was only necessary to delay everything until the arrival of the Fifth Hokage.

He is not qualified to personally resolve such a question.

Shikaku crouched down and spoke quietly to Hinata, who was standing timidly behind Hiashi and clutching the edge of his cloak, "Hinata, do you remember exactly what happened last night?"

"..."

Little Hinata shook her head shyly.

Shikaku stood up and looked at the ninja who were examining the corpse of the Kumogakure delegation leader and said, "Has the cause of death been established yet?"

The ninja in charge of examining the body had actually already established the cause of death, but due to the extreme importance of the matter, he had rechecked it several times so as not to miss a single detail.

Upon hearing Shikaku's words, he stood up and said in a deep voice, "After a detailed examination, I found that the cause of his death was a fracture of the occipital bone and the rupture of an arterial vessel....

This basically confirms that the cause of death was indeed the Juken of the Hyuga Clan.
