Chapter 796 Thoughts
Chapter 796 Thoughts
After Chiyo left, Sasuke felt hungry and headed home.
When he reached the fork in the road, a girl with the white eyes greeted him, saying, "Sasuke-nii-san."
Sasuke was stunned for a moment before realizing it was Hanabi.
"Hanabi's back! Did you know there's the Chunin Exams coming up?"
Sasuke smiled and spoke gently, after all, Hanabi called him "brother".
Hanabi didn't have the problem of being a dependent while living with the Uchiha clan, since she was someone Chiyo brought back.
She is a member of the Uchiha Kindergarten.
The other members of the clan believed that these were the clan leader's personal guards, and even though they did not have the surname Uchiha, everyone regarded them as members of the Uchiha clan.
As it turned out, the geniuses that Qianyao brought back were all outstanding, and even at a young age, their strength was already better than most of the clansmen.
Given time, they will become the backbone of the Uchiha clan.
The same goes for Hanabi. Not only did she graduate from the elite class, but at less than 12 years old, she is already preparing to be promoted to Chunin.
"Yes, I know, Sasuke-nii. Moegi just told me."
Hanabi answered obediently, then bowed to Sasuke and said, "I'll go back for dinner now."
"Okay, goodbye." Sasuke watched Hanabi's departing figure, a sense of melancholy washing over him.
[Even though only Hanabi calls me "brother," it feels pretty good.]
The identity of "elder brother" has always been Sasuke's obsession.
Especially after Karin's super-generation, Sasuke completely lost hope.
The fireworks have returned, and Sasuke suddenly remembers that there is someone here who calls him "brother".
Sasuke felt all his fatigue disappear and went home for dinner with light steps.
Hanabi returned to the home she and Hinata lived in.
"I'm home," Hanabi called out as she changed her shoes in the entryway.
"Hanabi is back!" Hinata poked her head out, holding a shovel.
"Hurry up and wash your hands, these two dishes are ready, we can eat now!"
Hinata has loved cooking since she was a child, and after she moved to the Uchiha clan, she was always the one cooking and taking care of Hanabi.
Hanabi called home before she arrived and left a message (Konoha Short Thread) saying she would be back for dinner.
"Okay, sister!"
After changing her shoes, Hanabi washed her hands and helped Hinata bring the dishes to the table.
She noticed two gift boxes of congratulatory candies nearby and asked curiously, "Sister, whose congratulatory candies are these?"
After Hinata served the rice, she replied, "These are congratulatory candies for Lord Chiyo and Karin's engagement, and congratulatory candies for Neji and Tenten's wedding."
"What!?"
Hanabi exclaimed in surprise; Hinata's answer was completely beyond her comprehension.
"My mission this time won't last long."
"I can accept Lord Chiyo and Karin, but why did Neji and Tenten suddenly get married?"
Hinata shook her head; she had no idea what had happened.
"I'm not entirely sure either, but Neji and Tenten's marriage was very rushed."
"I wasn't even invited; they only gave us the invitation later."
"I wonder if it's because of the attack on Konoha."
Hanabi looked somewhat puzzled, and recalling what had happened earlier, asked:
"Then...should we go back and see Neji-nii?"
Hinata paused for a moment, handed the food to Hanabi, and then sat down.
They never returned to the Hyuga clan territory after the family division coup.
The feud between the branch family and the main family had nothing to do with the two of them.
They were just born into the main family.
As for Hiashi's death, it was simply a matter of retribution.
After all, the people who killed Hiashi were Hizashi's followers, and they all died on that day.
"Why go back? That's no longer our home."
Hinata didn't mean any resentment when she said that; it was just a statement, since she was doing well with the Uchiha clan.
"I saw Hyuga Sota today, so I want to go back."
Hanabi's words startled Hinata, who asked uncertainly, "Hyuga Sota?"
Hanabi nodded seriously and said, "That's right, it's Hyuga Sota, the one who launched the New Sprout Project."
Hinata then realized what was happening, but she didn't speak immediately. Instead, she frowned and thought about it.
Konoha possesses the technology to revive people, and this has been passed down through generations.
As Naruto's girlfriend from the Uchiha clan, Hinata knows more.
She at least knew that the Fourth Hokage and his wife were not seriously injured, but actually dead, and had been resurrected a few years ago.
However, Hinata and her generation had no idea what conditions or costs were required to revive someone.
She never even considered the possibility of reviving Japanese football.
After all, the family wouldn't allow someone who controls their life and death to be resurrected.
"And then, even if Hyuga Sota is resurrected, what are you planning to do?"
Hinata asked in a somewhat serious tone.
Because all the main family members were dead, Hinata was much stronger than her counterpart in the original timeline.
Only when she has her younger sister, Hanabi, with her will she be able to think about things more maturely.
As the saying goes, an elder sister is like a mother, and when she's serious, Hanabi is actually a little afraid of her.
Hanabi flinched, but still mustered her courage and said, "I just want to know if it's possible to revive Father."
Unlike Hinata, who was suppressed by Hiashi from a young age, Hanabi was favored not only by Hiashi but also by the Grand Elder because of her talent.
Hanabi still loves her father very much, after all, Hiashi always has a smile on his face when he looks at her.
"Fireworks! Don't have that thought. Father's death was a feud between the main family and the branch family."
"Neji's father, Uncle Hizashi, died because of this."
"Lord Qianyao told us about the sins of the main family."
"Even if there were a way to resurrect Father now, the people who separated from the family wouldn't agree!"
Hinata is older and considers issues more comprehensively, hence her harsh words.
Hanabi was startled and said somewhat fearfully, "Sister, I was just saying, I'm not going."
Hinata's tone softened, as her younger sister was usually quite obedient.
"Next week is the Chunin Exams, and Neji will most likely be one of the judges."
"You could see them back then too."
"Okay, I understand." Seeing that Hinata had changed the subject, Hanabi didn't bring up the matter of returning to the Hyuga clan's territory again.
Hinata breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Hanabi was no longer insisting.
Actually, life is good now, and Hinata doesn't want to get involved in past grievances anymore.
After all, the main family's exploitation of the branch families was truly outrageous. After Chiyo told Hinata about these things, Hinata made a special trip to find out more.
Not only do the branch families have to protect each other, but when they go out to do missions, they also have to share a portion of the profits with the main family to support their food, clothing, and daily necessities.
The main branch of the family not only doesn't go to the battlefield, but they don't even do any missions. They collect the hard-earned money of the branch family every month, and they even bully the branch family.
If anything happens, they'll just make the branch family members die in their place.
Hinata had witnessed firsthand how Neji was punished to the point of wishing he were dead simply because of Neji's gaze.
Although her wish was to revitalize the main family, she did not want to revitalize this parasitic main family.
