Jiraiya asked, "How dangerous is this experiment?"
"It's very dangerous." Yumi Hinata thought for a moment.
She didn't tell him the specific direction of the experiment.
Instead, she said, "The key is that I will constantly activate the 'Caged Bird' during the experiment to determine the effect.
It's very painful, and I don't know how long this pain will last.
Maybe a month or two, maybe three to five years.
Only this child will be tortured to madness by this hopeless prisoner if I use it continuously. "
"You're right," Jiraiya said.
"So when you're sure that this child can't take it anymore, you can send me a message, and I'll contact the Hyuga family to rotate."
"Huh? Rotate what, the next child? "Yumi was a little frantic.
Just how much do these ninjas hate children?
"I don't want anyone under the age of sixteen, thank you. Make them Toku-Jounin!"
Jiraiya changed the topic and asked her, "Then when you succeed on others,
Will you deliberately help this child remove the 'Caged Bird'? "
"No, I said I don't have that much free time." Yumi understood what he meant. "You think I'm depriving him of the right to resist fate.
But risking his life and physical and mental health.
This is something that only adults can do.
A seven-year-old, no.
All children under the age of ten have not developed their brains well. They can't judge how much risk they're going to face, and they don't understand what death means. "
"So I judge on their behalf. Children have no right to come to me and risk their lives."
"Yumi -sama!" Hinata Yasuji, who was standing in the courtyard, heard the argument getting louder and louder. He couldn't help but kneel in the corridor to eavesdrop. When he heard this, he finally couldn't help but open the paper door.
"I can endure that kind of pain! I … "He lowered his head and took two deep breaths. When he raised his head again, he was already calm." Because I once wanted to kill Hinata, and Hinata -sama punished me. I know what it's like to be a 'Caged Bird.' "
Yumi Hinata raised her chin arrogantly. "Hinata, didn't I tell you to stay outside?"
Hinata Yasuji stared at her with a piercing gaze, the veins around his eyes almost popping out. "Please don't consider my feelings …"
"I'm not thinking about your feelings," Yumi Hinata interrupted him. "I'm thinking about my own feelings." She then turned to Jiraiya and said, "Lord Jiraiya, you must have misunderstood. I don't care about the health and future of these children. I just want to keep my promise."
Don't attack children, this is the line that Hyuga Yumi drew for herself, a baseline that allows her to maintain her sense of self in her ninja life.
Jiraiya sighed. The so-called agreement with oneself sometimes referred to the principles of self-cultivation. At this point, he admitted that he could not convince Yumi Hinata. He asked Hinata Yasuji, "Then, why don't you come back to Konoha with me?"
Hinata Yasuji was silent for a moment, then shook his head as if he had made up his mind. "No, I have nothing but myself."
The so-called Konoha, the so-called Hyuga family, was no longer a place he wanted to return to. The existence of the ancestral family was both a restraint and a home. He hated it, but it was also the only family he had left.
He used to think that his destiny was to die protecting the ancestral family like his father, but suddenly, the entire ancestral family ceased to exist overnight. He was at a loss for a few months. For a moment, he felt that he should protect Hinata and Fireworks like an elder brother protecting his younger sister. Sometimes, he could not help but hate them. For a moment, he was grateful to Yumi Hinata for breaking the barriers. Sometimes, he could not help but feel sad for the deaths of his uncle and grandfather.
Until his cousin Suigetsu, who had been taking care of him since his father's death, came to him and asked if he was willing to completely remove the curse mark on his forehead, and how much he was willing to pay for it — even if it was a curse that might never be activated by anyone.
It was only then that Hinata Yasuji found his new goal.
"Jiraiya -sama, please go back. I will stay here and continue to ask Yumi -sama."
"In that case …"
Jiraiya turned to Yumi Hinata, as if to ask. She frowned. "I said I won't take the child. Take him away."
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiraiya's figure turned into a puff of smoke and disappeared.
Damn it, Shadow Clone. Yumi Hinata facepalmed. So what's the use of the Byakugan other than seeing through things? How can it be listed as one of the three major dojutsu? It can't even see through a Shadow Clone, and she suffered so much for it.
Hinata Yasuji, who was forced to stay by Jiraiya, was also stunned. He did not notice when the "Jiraiya -sama" beside him was replaced by a Shadow Clone.
Yumi Hinata glanced at him. "Are you going back to Konoha by yourself?"
Hinata Yasuji quickly shook his head.
"It's useless to stay. I said you can't."
Hinata Yasuji said calmly. "It was Suigetsu -san who recommended me. He said that Hokage-sama will not send anyone else, and will not allow him to have long-term contact with you."
Yumi Hinata sneered. "This is not up to Sandaime-sama." With that, she got up and left.
Hinata Yasuji took out his wallet and asked Lantern Full Moon, who was there the whole time but had no sense of presence. "Hello, where should I go to check in?"
Lantern Full Moon had always followed the principle of two people traveling together and monitoring each other, but this time, Yumi Hinata left the hotel for nearly half an hour before he caught up with her again.
Yumi Hinata handed him a bag of roasted chestnuts. "Want some? What did you do just now? "
"Take that child to the counter to check in." Lantern Full Moon took the bag and looked at it, then picked up a chestnut and tasted it.
"Eh? You really didn't leave? " Yumi Hinata didn't take the seven-year-old's determination seriously. Seven years old, in the second grade of elementary school, who would take his words seriously? Even though she knew that the ninja children in this world were terrifyingly precocious, she still subconsciously didn't treat them as "people" who could make decisions independently.
She looked at Lantern Full Moon, who still had a poker face. "Why are you so kind to this child?"
Lantern Full Moon kept peeling the chestnuts. "He's about the same age as my younger brother."
Yumi Hinata was stunned. The younger brother who was said to have escaped from Kirin with him and was killed by him? Such a calm tone didn't seem like it. She asked tentatively, "What kind of child is he?"
Lantern Full Moon thought for a moment. "It's said that he looks very similar to me when I was young, but his personality is completely opposite. He's not suitable to be a ninja."
Yumi Hinata couldn't help but be curious. "What kind of personality is completely opposite?"
"Impatient, loves to cry, and is very weak." Lantern Full Moon summed it up succinctly.
So in his heart, he was patient, never cried, and was very strong? Yumi Hinata pursed her lips. "Children are always like this when they're six or seven years old."
Lantern Full Moon looked at her in surprise. "How can that be? How can he be a ninja like that? "
"I think there's something wrong with Kirin's definition of a ninja …" Yumi Hinata muttered. Suddenly, she asked, "So your younger brother and your clansmen are still alive? You don't sound like you're talking about the dead. "
Lantern Full Moon froze, but Hyuga Yumeili didn't seem to realize how abrupt her question was and continued walking forward. After a while, he quickly caught up with her and whispered, "Maybe."
It seemed that his clansmen were indeed being controlled to spy on her. Yumi Hinata thought about it and calmly reached out to him. "Where are the chestnuts? Have you finished eating them? "
Lantern Full Moon froze for a moment and handed the paper bag back to her. But Yumi Hinata was just trying to change the topic. She didn't dare to eat food that had been cooked by her partner.
After the two of them finished eating, they returned to the hotel. Hinata Yasuji was still there, and he was there for the next two, three, four, five, and six days.
He had already paid for the room, but perhaps he was afraid that Yumi Hinata would leave without saying goodbye, so he carried the bedding to her door every night to sleep. During the day, Yumi Hinata would study her ninjutsu in the room, and he would practice gentle boxing in the yard. He didn't say a word to anyone for the entire day.
He didn't plead with Hyuga Yuumi again, and actually looked like he was living peacefully.
Before Yumi Hinata went to bed every night, she wondered if she should grab him by the collar and throw him out. But every time she thought about it, she didn't come up with an answer. She just muddled along for a few days. On the seventh day, Hinata Yasuji still didn't make a move. She didn't know how such a small child who only reached her waist could be so calm.
She was convinced. Yumi Hinata thought. She waved her hand. "Hinata, come here."
Hinata Yasuji stopped his morning training, wiped the sweat off his face, and bowed. He was still as polite as ever, as if he had never been put on hold for the past few days. "Yumi -sama."
Yumi Hinata smiled and raised her right hand to form a seal. Hinata Yasuji's eyes suddenly widened. He screamed and fell to the ground. He hugged his head with both hands, trembling and wailing. Then, he gradually calmed down. It wasn't until ten minutes later that he was able to get up from the ground. He stared at her with a pair of big, bloodshot eyes.
"Did I pass?" Hinata Yasuji gritted his teeth. "Yumi-sama!"
"I only used the spell for fifteen seconds." Yumi Hinata said lightly. "I told you before. You're too young and your brain isn't fully developed. You won't be able to bear it."
Hinata Yasuji only asked, "Did I pass?"
Yumi Hinata cursed in her heart. She had no choice but to say, "Remember this feeling. This morning, I'll invade your head with Chakra. I'll test your brain and the state of the 'Caged Bird'. If it's as I predicted, we'll try using the Yin-type Chakra to erode the curse seal in the afternoon. These two steps will be repeated for a week. After a week, if I feel that the curse seal shows signs of weakening, I'll activate the 'Caged Bird' again. At that time, you'll have to report to me the degree of pain and the location of the seal. If you feel that there's no difference, this process will be repeated for another two weeks. If there's still no effect after two weeks, we'll try the next plan. Any questions? "
Hinata Yasuji finally breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that he had succeeded. "No."
In the end, there was nothing.
Five days later, at one o 'clock in the morning, Yumi Hinata heard the soft sounds of Hinata tossing and turning on the other side of the room. She rolled her eyes helplessly. She lifted the quilt, got up, and opened the paper door between the two rooms. "Insomnia or nightmares?"
Hinata Yasuji was startled by her sudden voice. When he came back to his senses, he pulled the quilt up in embarrassment, only revealing a pair of round eyes. He said softly, "Sorry, I woke you up."
Yumi Hinata sighed. "Have you learned how to extract Chakra?" After getting an affirmative answer, she said, "Since you can't sleep, come over. Tonight, I'll teach you how to use Chakra to soothe your nerves and help you sleep."
This wasn't an advanced technique, nor did it require exquisite Chakra control. The technique required was much lower than climbing trees and treading water. With Yumi Hinata's assistance, after two nights, Hinata Yasuji could fall asleep within ten minutes of lying down.
But that was all there was to it.
The psychological and physical damage caused by extreme pain was objective objective, and Celestial Mastery couldn't help much. Before the third week was over, Yumi Hinata was already considering whether to ask Konoha to replace Hinata — if not, she would have to extend Hinata's rest time and slow down the progress of the experiment.
However, before Yumi Hinata decided to write a letter, Payne assigned a new task to her and Lantern Full Moon.
Perhaps it was due to the fact that the "Caged Bird" had been introduced in an unknown era, but in the long history of which no one knew if it was true or not, there had never been a branch family that had gone out of control. However, anything could happen in the thousands of years of history. After all, less than ten years ago, there was an incident where the eyes of a direct descendant of the main family had been taken away. He couldn't even keep his own eyes, let alone an inanimate spell scroll.
However, Yumi Hinata always had a glimmer of hope. She felt that for so many years, no one jumped out to control Yasuji's branch family. Even if there was really someone who stole the spell scrolls, they would have died in the years of war.
Now that this glimmer of hope was gone, Yumi Hinata had to implement her backup plan B — kill Orochimaru and seize the information about the "Edo Tensei" technique.
