Chapter 59 Sacrifices
Chapter 59 Sacrifices
The Hyuga clan's territory, the branch family compound.
"Hiashi went to the Uchiha clan's territory in the middle of the night before, and has already sent letters to several other ninja clans today?"
Hinata Mitsunobu looked at Sota in front of him and sighed.
"Why did you only tell me now?"
Sota shook his head: "Lord Mitsunobu, we don't know what Hiashi is planning to do either."
"However, I have learned the contents of the letter today."
"This is a copy."
Sota took out a piece of copied paper, and Mitsuaki picked it up and looked at it.
The content reveals how much Kushina's legacy is, how much power Hiruzen Sarutobi cultivated with that legacy, and how many people returned this time.
The rest are some more formal, polite phrases, which all convey the same meaning.
The Sarutobi clan has great ambitions; if the Uchiha clan is gone, the other ninja clans will soon follow suit.
The remaining matches are also the main event, according to Japan's football team:
The Uchiha clan has worked diligently for Konoha for many years and intends to unite everyone to nominate Fugaku and Shiko as honorary elders.
Guangxin put away the papers in his hand, a thoughtful look on his face.
It seems that after the last incident, the main family no longer trusts Hiruzen Sarutobi.
The first step now is to get the Uchiha clan into Konoha's power structure.
However, at present, it seems to be somewhat difficult.
After all these years, Konoha has finally managed to reduce the Uchiha Police Force to just a handful of people.
Unless Konoha has reached a point where it has no choice but to back down.
Guangxin glanced at Cangtai: "I understand. More and more people are gathering outside. Be on guard."
Then he gently patted Sota's shoulder:
"Don't let the Zong family find any fault with us, or they'll use us as scapegoats again."
Cang Tai said earnestly, "Lord Guangxin, please rest assured, we have records of every step of the process."
Guangxin smiled and nodded, his expression gentle: "I can only feel at ease if there are people like you in the family division."
"Go patrol first, and be careful."
Cang Tai bowed slightly: "Lord Guangxin, please get some rest."
Guangxin watched Sota's departing figure with a hint of reluctance in his eyes. He murmured, "From now on, the division of the family will depend on you."
Then his gaze gradually hardened.
Then he returned to his study and began to get busy.
About two hours later, Guangxin, having disguised himself, sneaked out of the branch family.
He used his superior intuition and familiarity with the defenses of his own family to successfully bypass everyone.
Then, through the gap in the Uchiha clan's territory outside the village, they sneaked into the Uchiha's compound.
The walls of this place seem very low; you could easily climb over them and get in.
But it is precisely in these kinds of places that the most traps are found.
Guangxin used his white eye to see clearly that they were all warning traps.
So he felt reassured and jumped inside.
As expected, Guangxin immediately fell into the trap.
Those were extremely special silk threads, coated with pigments that blended seamlessly with the darkness of the night.
Ordinary people can't even detect it.
After being stepped on, Guangxin stood still.
The Uchiha members quickly appeared and surrounded Mitsunobu.
Mitsunobu immediately pulled off his mask: "I am Hyuga Mitsunobu."
Ji Yan was a little stunned: "Isn't this the Fourth Elder of the Hyuga Clan?"
Guangxin nodded, then gave him a wink.
Ji Yan waved his hand, and the other Uchiha clan members immediately dispersed.
"Lord Guangxin, please follow me."
Hyuga Mitsunobu is the only elder of the Hyuga branch family, and it can be said that the branch family basically listens to him.
He came alone, so he must have something on his mind.
After Mitsunobu was led to a room by Kihiko, Fugaku arrived shortly afterward.
"Chief of the Fugaku clan."
Fugaku nodded slightly: "Elder Mitsushin."
Mitsunori was a bit older than Fugaku, and Fugaku was quite polite to him.
Moreover, Guangxin's sneaking over alone clearly indicates that it's something very important.
"I wonder what brings Elder Guangxin here at this hour?"
Guangxin took out the distribution map of the detonation tags that he had previously looked up.
"Clan Chief Fugaku should know that Konoha is now being monitored by our Hyuga clan."
"We found a large number of detonators at these locations."
"Although we don't know who put them there, and they are quite old, they are all of very high quality, with over 90% capable of detonating."
Fugaku picked up the explosive tag distribution map with some surprise, and was stunned when he saw the dense red dots on it.
"Elder Guangxin, are all of these true?"
Guangxin also knew that anyone who saw these for the first time would show disbelief.
After all, these detonating tags are distributed over a very wide area and there are a lot of them.
Guangxin nodded, indicating that all of this was true.
After looking at the map of the explosive tags for more than ten seconds, Fugaku finally accepted this shocking fact.
Mitsunobu pointed to one of the places: "Chief of the Fugaku Clan."
"This is an old area left over after the demolition. Hiruzen Sarutobi's men were stationed nearby."
Fugaku's expression changed: "Did Hiashi send you?"
Mitsun waved his hand: "No, Clan Chief Fugaku, please remember, this matter has nothing to do with the main family; it was done by me alone."
He then gave Fugaku a meaningful look.
Fugaku immediately understood; no wonder Mitsunori and Hiashi wanted to separate.
So it turns out the main family doesn't want to take responsibility.
This is perfectly normal, since it's still unknown whether these explosive tags can cause serious damage to Sarutobi's troops.
However, once it is used, the Hyuga clan, who are responsible for monitoring the entire village, will certainly not escape the charge of inspection.
Therefore, dividing the family property is a perfect excuse to take the blame.
Fugaku's expression was somewhat complicated. If that's the case, will Hyuga Mitsunobu become the next victim after Hyuga Hizashi?
But Guangxin didn't show any special expression, as if he didn't know he was going to die?
Or perhaps he had already disregarded life and death?
Mitsunobu knew exactly what Fugaku's gaze meant, but he pretended not to notice.
"The clan leader is already contacting other ninja clans. If the Uchiha clan wants to seize power..."
"We must force Hiruzen Sarutobi to back down."
Guangxin pointed to the distribution map of the explosive tags: "Hopefully these can deal a heavy blow to Sarutobi's forces and expose them."
If a large number of Sarutobi clan members go to the hospital, these people will no longer be able to keep it a secret.
Fugaku nodded and said, "Elder Mitsushin, rest assured, we Uchiha will make good use of this."
Guangxin stood up: "I can't stay here any longer; I have to leave now."
Fugaku stood up: "Then I'll have Ji Yan escort the elder out."
……
"How could there be such a thing?" Qian Yao was also surprised when he received the explosion distribution map of the detonating tags.
Fugaku then recounted what had just happened with Hyuga Mitsunobu.
Qianyao was very clear about the origin of these explosive tags.
These were all set up by Gen'ou of Yangyan Village more than 20 years ago, during the Second Shinobi World War.
It will take at least five or six years before it is discovered.
He had considered using this thing to do something drastic to the Sarutobi clan before.
But he had no idea where these were located.
Some are hidden under the eaves or inside the walls, visible only to the untrained eye.
Unexpectedly, the Hyuga clan discovered it ahead of time.
It's like having a pillow delivered to someone who's about to fall asleep.
That would be a way to severely damage Konoha.
"I understand. Let me think about how to use this."
"I'm going back to sleep now." Qian Yao put the item into his pocket, yawned, and walked out.
Fugaku was a little confused. Shouldn't this be the time to discuss things? Besides, a fight was about to break out outside. How could Chiyo sleep?
Alright, let's invite Elder Sihu over first. Elder Sihu probably can't sleep either.
