"I don't like killing people.
Tonight.
Apart from you and Junsuke-sama,
There are only three elders. I don't know if they've come into contact with the Caged Bird curse. Although they're from a branch family, they're too close to the power of the Hyuga family.
I can only … "Yumi Hinata made a regretful expression." The others are safe and sound, and no one found out what happened. "
"Previously, I only knocked out Lady Eiko, Hinata, and Fireworks.
I didn't do anything to them.
But now, since you tell me that you can't remove the Caged Bird,
Then we have to discuss it. "Yumi Hinata raised three fingers.
"Please tell me something you think I should know.
It doesn't matter if it's some other place where the spell might be preserved, or some method to avoid the control of the spell to some extent, or someone you think might know how to dispel the spell. It doesn't matter if it's some other place where the spell might be kept, or if it's some other method that you think might know how to dispel the spell.
If you agree, one of these three people can survive, and the person who survives will be designated by you.
Whether it's Lady Hinata or anyone else, I'm not afraid of their revenge. "
"But if you can't say anything, I'm afraid that the bloodline of the Hyuga family can only be cut off."
Hyuga Hiashi's breath was filled with blood.
"… Will you really kill them … Yumi, you've never killed civilians and children … even on the battlefield …"
Yumi Hinata nodded expressionlessly.
"Indeed.
But for the Caged Bird,
I can break all principles and do anything. "
Hinata Hinata didn't doubt that Yumi Hinata wouldn't do such a thing.
He said that he did his best and left the rest to fate.
After tonight, Yumi Hinata's only way out was to leave Konoha and become a rebellious ninja. Since she chose this path out of anger because the Caged Bird was activated, she might abandon her family and her past weakness.
He knew that he wouldn't be able to escape today, but after listening to Yumi Hinata's declaration, his mind was spinning fast. Yumi Hinata struck like lightning tonight. Although she didn't kill many people, without the Caged Bird, would the branch family, which had accumulated resentment for a long time, still be loyal to the Hyuga family like before? From now on, the Yasuji family wouldn't be qualified to compete with the Uchiha family for the next twenty years.
Hinata was already five years old. According to tradition, all children in the branch family had been engraved with the Caged Bird seal. Even if there was a talented child like her nephew Hinata, they would never be able to compete with Yumi Hinata in the future. No, even in the history of the Yasuji family, there were only a few people as powerful as Yumi Hinata, and this was under the condition that her Byakugan had a blind spot.
The eldest daughter Hinata, who was only six years old, and the second daughter Fireworks, who had just turned one year old, had not been engraved with the seal. One of them must survive, otherwise, as Yumi Hinata said, the bloodline of the Yasuji family would be cut off tonight. Hinata Hinata would never allow this to happen.
"In the Land of Rain … Ji Zhichuan … Yasuji's shrine before he moved to Konoha … there may be records of the Caged Bird."
Yumi Hinata nodded. "I know. I was planning to go there next. This doesn't count."
"But you don't know the sequence of seals to open the shrine …"
"That's true." Yumi Hinata put down Hinata Hinata so that he could lean against the wall and sit up straight. "Very well. Please tell me."
There were a total of ten seals. Yumi Hinata counted silently and smiled for the first time tonight. "Well, master, now you can choose who to let live first."
Hinata Hinata closed her eyes. Her eldest daughter Hinata was not talented. Although Fireworks might be a talented child, she was at most like Hinata. It was impossible to expect her to take revenge on Yumi Hinata when she grew up. However, if she was alone, it would be extremely difficult for her to survive the counterattack of the branch family.
Therefore, it was better to choose Hinata.
"Hinata …" Hinata thought of Fireworks, who had just learned to walk, and his gentle wife. He felt that his internal organs, which had been injured by Yumi Hinata, were burning again. He was in so much pain that he wanted to die.
"Don't be like this." Yumi Hinata looked at the tears in Hinata Hinata's eyes and said gently, "I thought you wouldn't cry. After all, when your brother, Diurnal Difference, died for you, I didn't see any expression on your face. Since you're so sad, can't you just give me some other clues? "
Hinata Hinata shook his head. "Kill me."
Yumi Hinata was still unwilling to give up. "Is there really nothing else? I don't want someone to suddenly appear and use the 'Caged Bird' on me when I'm having a good time outside. That will make me very, very angry. Maybe I'll be so angry that I'll rush back to the Hyuga family to kill people as long as I survive. "
Hinata Hinata just shook his head.
Yumi Hinata sighed helplessly and reached out to break his throat.
However, Hinata Hinata's initial judgment was right. She wouldn't go and kill a child who didn't know anything. Although Matriarch Eiko was also a Jounin, she had retired from the ninja sequence for nearly ten years. She was knocked out by Yumi Hinata the moment they met in the bedroom. She didn't even have the chance to react, so she couldn't be considered a threat at all.
After closing Hinata Hinata's eyelids, Yumi Hinata stood up and stretched. She thought about how she no longer had to worry about offending the great dignity of the Hyuga family from today onwards. She only felt that the sky was clear and the moon was clear. Even in the middle of the night, she seemed to see a golden path spread out in front of her.
Yumi Hinata took one last look at the mansion before leaving Konoha.
The next afternoon, at the border between the Fire Nation and the Land of Rain, Yumi Hinata, who had been leaping through the forest at high speed, suddenly stopped. In front of her, Metke, who was dressed in emerald green, flew past her like a cannonball and smashed into a small piece of gravel. Following closely behind, I Don't Know The Secret also landed beside him, blocking Yumi Hinata's path.
Yumi Hinata wanted to sigh again. "Kai, Genma, you're not here to send me off, right?"
Metke stood up. His usually excited face was expressionless. "Yumi, come back with me."
Yumi Hinata did not strike the starting pose of the 64 palms. She just stood there casually and looked at him with her head tilted. "Go back for what?"
"Go back and explain." I Don't Know The Secret, who was chewing on Senbonzai, also had a serious expression. "You didn't do anything to the Hyuga family, did you?"
"I can tell you now," Yumi Hinata said crisply. "Last night, no, the night before, I killed Shunsuke Hinata, Hinata Hinata, and three elders. I burned some things and then fled to avoid punishment."
Metke broke a tree next to him with a punch and roared, "Why?! You're so, so... "He remembered the time before Yumi Hinata quit the ninja sequence. He, Yumi Hinata, and I Don't Know The Secret had teamed up together. He also remembered the missions that were complicated because of Yumi's nagging." Sometimes, you don't even want to kill spies. Why did you kill your own family?! "
Yumi Hinata pulled off her forehead protector and threw it on the ground. She pointed at her forehead and shouted even louder than he did. "Why? Of course, it's because of this damn 'caged bird'! "
She took two deep breaths and calmed herself down. "Since you know that I'm the murderer, then you must have heard about the incident. I can kill a hundred of those little kids with one punch. It's all because of this damned seal. In front of so many people, in front of so many people, it made me kneel on the ground and cry in pain! As long as there's a spell, anyone can kill me easily! Family? Don't insult the head of the family. He only thinks that he's my master. "
Metke pursed his lips. After a moment, he said, "Didn't you say that Hinata Hinata apologized to you?"
Yumi Hinata snorted. "Apologize? Khai, you don't understand the Hyuga family. The noble main family will never apologize to a lowly branch family. He only punished the child and informed me. Besides, how valuable is his reputation? Can he make up for what I've suffered by apologizing to me? "Yumi Hinata shook her head." He can't. No one can. "
"So you killed him."
I Don't Know The Secret added, "And Shunsuke Hinata -sama and the three elders."
"No, I didn't do it in a moment of anger. I just said this to let you know what a 'caged bird' is."
Mike Guy wasn't known for his astuteness, but after years of tacit understanding, he immediately understood what she meant. "So … even if this didn't happen, you would still kill them. You've been planning this for a long time. This has always been your plan."
"Yes." Yumi Hinata grinned without a trace of a smile. "I've been looking forward to this day since I was engraved with the 'caged bird' when I was five."
"Looking forward to this day? Looking forward to being Konoha's rebellious ninja? Looking forward to fighting with me and Khai? " I Don't Know The Secret said, "Come back with us. You can't do this at all. You've never caught a rebellious ninja before. You don't understand what this means. Since there's a reason for this, and Hinata Zongjia is dead, no one dares to ask for a heavy sentence. You don't have to go this far. "
Yumi Hinata still shook her head. "It's not that I don't understand. It's not that you don't understand. Do you still remember what Uncle Dai said when he saved us in front of the Seven Legendary Swordsmen? 'True victory is not to defeat the enemy, but to protect the most important thing in your heart.' For me, the most important thing is that I'm a human. I'm neither a tool nor a slave, and I'm definitely not a dog. You want to be my master just by engraving a mark on my head? Dream on."
"Well, they're all dead now. Come back with me. Khai, Kakashi, Asuma, and I will plead for you!"
"Thank you, Genma, but no." Yumi Hinata pointed to her forehead. "I've been in prison for fifteen years. I don't want to stay in prison for another day."
However, working with Hyuga Suigetsu was much better than working with Orochimaru or other unscrupulous people like Akatsuki.
"In that case," Yumi Hinata stretched out her hand and made a hand seal. "I'll activate your 'Caged Bird' first. I need the actual activation data. You can also pretend to fight with the people who attacked me before you break their illusion."
Hyuga Suigetsu exhaled. He sat down cross-legged, tore off some bandages and stuffed them into his mouth to prevent bites. He nodded and signaled her to begin.
"I'll try to control it to a lesser extent," Yumi Hinata said softly, and then she activated the curse.
The Hyuga Clan boy, who had been very calm since he came in, suddenly tensed up all his muscles, his eyes almost popped out, and his teeth creaked. In just a moment, the sweat on his body soaked his clothes.
Lantern Full Moon had been sitting quietly, quietly watching. Until this scene, he couldn't help but be surprised. This curse is really powerful. This curse is really useful. With this curse, the most important thing for a ninja, loyalty, has become the most common and meaningless thing. A ninja has also become a tool in a real sense.
So, the person who killed the two elite ninjas Kirin, repelled the fugu demon from Mount Watermelon, and even caught him, the person who was as strong as the Mizukage, always had this thing on his head?
Lantern Full Moon couldn't help but look at Yumi Hinata with a strange gaze. Then, who is the person who can activate the curse to control her? Does he really exist? Could it be Payne? Why did she join the Akatsuki?
The activation time of the curse was only a few dozen seconds, and it soon stopped, but Suito was still immersed in the aftertaste of pain and couldn't extricate himself.
After Yumi Hinata put down her hand, she thoughtfully touched her eyes. She hesitated for a moment, and then reached out her hand to relieve Hyuga Suigetsu's pain, but he raised his hand to stop her.
"No, my teammate Kurihara is a medical ninja. Since you want to pretend to be an ordinary person, don't leave any trace of Chakra. "
Hyuga Suigetsu gasped for breath for a few minutes, and finally recovered a bit, and asked, "Did you find anything?"
Yes, a big discovery. But Lantern Full Moon was sitting at the back, so Yumi Hinata just shook her head. When Hyuga Suigetsu agreed, he was already mentally prepared, so he didn't feel disappointed. He just signaled the three people to start making statements.
Finally, they made a script: Yumi Hinata, alias Meiko Muda, entrusted the task of asking Hyuga Suigetsu to escort her and Lantern Full Moon, alias Muda Mitsuru, to Izanshan Street in the Land of Hot Springs. Because they were afraid of being robbed by the Nōnin, they were entrusted with a B-level task. When Suigetsu led the team, they were attacked by the Nōnin. Two of his teammates fell to the ground under Genjutsu, and Suigetsu dodged the Genjutsu and knocked down the opponent.
"There are a lot of loopholes," Yumi Hinata commented.
Hyuga Suigetsu supported his head and said, "That's enough. They trust me a lot." After saying that, he remembered that he was about to become a Nōnin, and he couldn't help but sigh.
After waking up the two Konoha Chunin, Hyuga Suigetsu began his performance, and Yumi Hinata thought about her new discovery. When she used the "Caged Bird" curse, she used the Byakugan.
Lantern Full Moon was behind her, and Hyuga Suigetsu was struggling with his eyes closed. Only she felt that the moment she used the curse, the Chakra involuntarily flowed into the meridians around her eyes. It felt the same as when she used the Byakugan.
In other words, there were Byakugan?!
No, although the appearance looked very strange, those two eyes were definitely not Byakugan. Yumi Hinata thought of something in Orochimaru's research materials. Then, did he transplant the Byakugan onto his body? Could that still be used normally?
No, more importantly, where did his Byakugan come from?
The Hyuga family's Byakugan could only be lost by the main family. Because of the "Caged Bird" engraving on the head, the Byakugan would be destroyed at the moment of death. Even if it was dug out, it would just be an ordinary eyeball with no function. It would be useless even if it was transplanted.
The effect would be the same if it was dug out alive. It would just be a destroyed Byakugan.
The main family or a child's Byakugan.
Yumi Hinata thought about it. The last time the main family lost their Byakugan was on the battlefield with the Water Country. The Hyuga family had a general idea of who got the Byakugan, but if it was a child... Children who awakened the Byakugan but didn't have the "Caged Bird" engraving on their heads were highly protected by the Hyuga family. They were almost never allowed to step out of the house, and there had never been any cases of children going missing or dying unnaturally...
Forget it, it didn't matter where the Byakugan came from. In any case, it definitely existed. In that case, the only way was to destroy the Byakugan engraving on their bodies.
Yumi Hinata turned her attention back to the situation in front of her. Hyuga Suigetsu had already woken up his teammates from the illusion and explained it to them according to the script. He was indeed very trustworthy. None of his teammates asked any questions. As for the client who was wearing a bamboo hat to hide his face and the client's seemingly dangerous younger brother, no one brought it up. Originally, she had prepared an explanation. If anyone asked, she would say that Lantern Full Moon was a ninja from some small country. After all, he was now a dead person in the Water Country, unlike Yumi Hinata, who had a bounty on her head.
On the way to the Land of Hot Water, Yumi Hinata was completely immersed in the role of a "weak ordinary person." She refused to sleep in the wild and had to stay in a hotel. Although she was very rich, she didn't hire a car. Instead, she had to rest every one or two hours. Breakfast and dinner had to be eaten in a proper restaurant. If lunch had to be eaten on the roadside, then she would resolutely refuse dry food. She must have fresh fish or meat. And don't be fooled by her delicate appearance. No matter how murderous the ninjas threatened her, she wasn't afraid because she was an ordinary person. She couldn't feel any murderous aura at all.
Yumi Hinata made the three-day journey of a ninja into a fifteen-day journey. Of course, this was to be able to call Hyuga Suigetsu to her room at night to do an experiment. The easy journey during the day was also more conducive to his recovery.
Along the way, the most important and dangerous experiment she did on Hyuga Suigetsu was to invade his brain with Chakra. If she wasn't careful, she could kill him. Her goal was to use Chakra to explore the structure of the brain and see how the "Caged Bird" was tied to the nervous system.
Previously, she had obtained information about the Living Corpse Reincarnation from Orochimaru. The foundation of the Living Corpse Reincarnation was Spirit Transformation Jutsu: a ninjutsu that was originally used to kill enemies in battle. It allowed the user's spirit to leave the body and turn into a spirit.
This kind of ninjutsu was difficult to categorize among the five attributes. Although it wasn't a Kekkei Genkai, it was like Thor, Summoning Jutsu, and other space-time ninjutsu. If you can learn it, you can learn it. If you can't learn it, you can't learn it.
Yumi Hinata's cheat didn't disappoint her. She could even learn this kind of ninjutsu. Although she hadn't succeeded in learning it yet, the prerequisite of Spirit Transformation Jutsu — condensing a spirit body — had allowed her to confirm that her soul was intact and had not been eroded by the "Caged Bird."
Previously, Yumi Hinata was worried that the "Caged Bird" was engraved on Chakra, and Chakra itself was inextricably linked to the soul and spirit of a person. If that was the case, then her last resort — "changing bodies" — would no longer exist, and the difficulty of solving the "Caged Bird" would instantly increase by a hundred times.
Along the way, Hyuga Suigetsu's teammates were on the verge of killing their client when they entered the territory of the Land of Hot Water. Hyuga Suigetsu's expression became more and more haggard day by day, which was interpreted as him being unable to bear the mental torture of his client.
But on the last night, Hyuga Suigetsu, who was in charge of the night shift, came to Yumi Hinata's room after his teammates fell asleep, but she told him, "You don't have to be a defector anymore."
"Look at this."
The Chakra on Yumi Hinata's two hands merged into one and gradually transformed into the shape of a brain. Hyuga Suigetsu didn't have time to be surprised by her superb control of the Chakra form before he realized something was wrong. He pointed at the dense black lines on the surface of the brain and asked, "What is this?"
"This is the 'Caged Bird.'" Yumi Hinata said as her Chakra continued to spread, and the lines on the surface of the brain continued to extend forward, gradually forming a very familiar mark at the forefront. It was a mark they had seen countless times in the mirror in the past. The "d" character.
"I have a hypothesis that the 'Caged Bird's control of the brain will strengthen over time." She motioned to Hyuga Suigetsu to look at the back of the brain. "Look, this part has not been eroded at all. Isn't that strange?"
Hyuga Suigetsu muttered, "Indeed, although you said that you would try to reduce the degree of activation, these few times are much more painful than the time when you were ten years old."
Yumi Hinata and he looked at each other, and both of them understood what this meant: she needed a new test subject, a child.
Yasuji Hinata was six years old this year. Almost all the children under the age of ten in the branch family were infected with the 'Caged Bird' a year ago, but...
