Hyōjin quickly converged his scattered thoughts and sorted out the clues he had at the moment.
According to his speculation, if the ancestors of the Hyuga Clan really created a giant Tenseigan and hid the secret of that giant Tenseigan in these ancient books.
Then from the time speculation, the secret should be hidden in the ancient books written in the period from more than 300 years ago to more than 100 years ago.
This eliminated most of the ancient books in the secret vault, and narrowed the scope of the search from the entire secret vault to a bookshelf.
Slowly walking to the bookshelf dedicated to the ancient books written in this period, Hyōjin did not hesitate to open his Tenseigan, because he does not know in what form the secret left by the ancestors of the Hyuga Clan, so opening the Tenseigan can maximize the extent to ensure that he will not miss any clues.
But after flipping through more than ten ancient books in a row, Hyōjin's brows gradually wrinkled.
He found that the ancient books written by the Hyuga Clan during this period are particularly missing, such as the chronicles of the Hyuga Clan. From the bibliography, it can be seen that the Hyuga Clan wrote a total of seven books during this period, but there are only three books on the bookshelf, and four books are missing.
Some other travel notes and miscellaneous notes are also missing to varying degrees.
"Strange, why are the ancient books missing from this period so serious?"
Ding!
At this moment, a light bell sounded in the secret vault.
Kuroto's lips twitched. He knew that the guardian elder of the Zong Clan was urging him to hurry up.
The secret vault is the top priority of the Hyuga Clan. Even with the permission of Patriarch Hiashi, Hyōjin, as a member of the branch family, can't stay here for too long at a time.
Closing the Tenseigan, Hyōjin strode out of the secret vault, and then met Hiashi again.
Hiashi took a sip of the tea cup, and then asked leisurely: "Did you get anything from the ancient books?"
After pondering for a moment, Hyōjin decided to test Hiashi: "Patriarch, when I looked through the genealogy, I found that the number of our clansmen seems to be decreasing year by year, what is the reason for this?"
Hiashi slowly frowned and said with emotion: "Perhaps it is because of the war, you also know that the Shinobi clans in the village were more or less affected by the war, some were even directly destroyed because of the war."
Looking at Hiashi, Hyōjin found that the expression on Hiashi's face did not seem to be fake, and thought: "It seems that the Hyuga Clan is also aware of this phenomenon, but they should not know the real reason for this, so they can only attribute the decrease of the clansmen to the war!"
The Senju Clan perished, the Uzumaki Clan dispersed, and the Kaguya Clan was annihilated. In the context of the successive decline of the great clans of the Shinobi World, the decrease in the population of the Hyuga Clan is indeed not a shocking thing.
The Hyuga Clan was aware of it, but they did not care too much, which is also reasonable.
And this point can also be confirmed from the side that the current Hyuga Clan does not know the existence of the giant Tenseigan, and has completely lost control of it.
Hyōjin changed the topic, and after chatting for a while, he vaguely mentioned the serious loss of ancient books in the secret vault.
Hiashi suddenly frowned: "Hey, when the secret vault was attacked last time, several ancient books were stolen, I never thought that this time the village was destroyed, the secret vault was damaged, and many ancient books were lost!"
Hyōjin's heart skipped a beat.
Hyōjin did not pay too much attention to the previous attack on the secret vault and the theft of the Byakugan, but he knows that the culprit is most likely the traitor who has been lurking in the Hyuga Clan.
Because only a traitor who is familiar with the Hyuga Clan's mansion would have the opportunity to plot against the Hyuga Elder stationed in the secret vault. As for the others, not to mention committing the crime, even finding out where the Hyuga Clan's secret vault is not an easy task.
But to Hyōjin's surprise, the traitor took advantage of the time when the Akatsuki attacked the village to steal some ancient books from the secret vault, and it seems to be targeted.
'Could it be that he found something in the ancient books?'
For a while, this thought lingered in Hyōjin's mind.
The traitor lurking in the family broke into the secret vault for the first time, and from the fact that he triggered the alarm of the 'Caged Bird Curse', it can be seen that his main goal is the 'Caged Bird Curse'. As for stealing the ancient books, it should be a hasty act after triggering the alarm of the secret vault. After all, it is not easy to break into the family's secret vault, and if it was Hyōjin, he would have taken something before leaving.
But the traitor took advantage of the chaos in the village and the destruction of the clan land by the 'Shinra Tensei' to steal the secret vault for the second time, and the goal became very clear.
From this, it can be seen that the traitor must have found something in the ancient books he stole the first time, so there was a clear purpose to steal the second time.
It is precisely because the purpose of the traitor's second theft is very clear, he only locked on a few ancient books and did not covet the other treasures in the secret vault, so it did not attract the attention of the Hyuga Clan and did not trigger relevant investigations and searches.
'What a restrained and forbearing guy, hey, our Hyuga Clan still has some talented people!'
Analyzing this, Hyōjin couldn't help but secretly sigh.
If the traitor really found clues related to the giant Tenseigan of the Hyuga Clan in the ancient books, and followed the clues to find the giant Tenseigan, then it is actually not a bad thing for Hyōjin.
Because the giant Tenseigan is not in anyone's hands, that person has the authority to control it. The authority to control the giant Tenseigan is determined according to bloodline and intimacy.
Because the giant Tenseigan on the moon is composed of the Byakugan of the Otsutsuki branch family, so the last descendant of the Otsutsuki branch family, Otsutsuki Samurai, is its highest authority. No one else, including Hyōjin, who also has the Tenseigan, can compete with him in this regard. As long as Otsutsuki Samurai is still alive, Hyōjin will always be the second highest authority of the giant Tenseigan.
And the giant Tenseigan of the Hyuga Clan, whether it is bloodline or intimacy, Hyōjin, who also has the Tenseigan, is worthy of the highest authority of the giant Tenseigan.
If the traitor found the giant Tenseigan according to the clues in the ancient books and lifted the seal on the giant Tenseigan, then he should hide far away and never appear in front of Hyōjin. Otherwise, once he appears in front of Hyōjin with the giant Tenseigan, it will be no different from delivering himself to the door.
