"He's the bodyguard I hired." Hyuga Yumi insisted on this statement.
"He's Kirin's defected ninja.
Even a defected ninja has to do missions to make money. As for the purpose, it's that simple. I want to unlock the 'Caged Bird'.
Nothing else matters. If Konoha stands in front of me, I will become Konoha's enemy. If Jiraiya -sama stands in front of me,
Then I will become your enemy. "
So he's not cooperating with the Water Country? Jiraiya pondered. Indeed.
The boy didn't wear a forehead protector.
And he heard that the situation in the Water Country is very complicated now, and the number of defected ninjas is increasing.
But with Yumi Hinata's strength, whether it's what he heard before or what Hyuga Suigetsu mentioned in the letter, it's unreasonable that she needs to hire a bodyguard.
Even if there's someone who can control the 'Caged Bird'.
For a ninja, nothing is more dangerous than another ninja, and nothing is more trustworthy than their own strength. What makes her trust a defected ninja, a defected ninja from the 'Blood Mist'?
But let's not think about this matter. As Yumi Hinata said, Konoha's enemy is Konoha's loss. The combination of Byakugan and Thor is enough to make her one of the most difficult people to kill in the world. Jiraiya certainly doesn't think that her strength is above his.
But he also admits that if this little girl wants to run away, he can't do anything.
As Bo Fung Gate's sensei, he's probably the one who knows Thor the best in the world.
The power of this ninjutsu is as unreasonable as its difficulty.
It's been nearly sixty years since the invention of the Ninjutsu.
Yumi Hinata was the third person to learn it.
But she's not the third person to try to learn it, not even the thirtieth or the three-hundredth.
Most of the ninjutsu invented by Tobirama Sentete are written in the Book of Seals. It's called forbidden, but in fact, it's dangerous to practice it when the level is not high enough. After reaching the level of Jonin, most of the harmless ninjutsu will be open to them, and they can apply to learn it according to the direction they're good at.
Thor has always been the most popular ninjutsu. Many people spend a lot of time on it, but until Jiraiya left the village last time, he didn't hear that a second person learned it.
Hyuga Yumi's talent was evident from this.
During the third shinobi war, Jiraiya also heard of this "Powerful Coward", a name that coexists both strong and weak. It doesn't sound like a cold and ruthless person. Hyuga Suigetsu also said that although Yumi Hinata has mastered the "Caged Bird", she has no intention of controlling the Hyuga family. When the Third Hokage wrote to him, he only said that the Root chased her and found that she has mastered Thor, and failed to kill her. He didn't say that all the people who participated in the chase died in the line of duty. In addition, Jiraiya didn't know about "Orochimaru's death", so he didn't have much bad feelings towards Yumi Hinata. At most, he just felt that she wasn't loyal to the village.
But Jiraiya himself is not a person who works hard for the village, otherwise he wouldn't have been wandering outside for so many years. And he always felt that the existence of the "Caged Bird" in the Hyuga family was very unreasonable, but he was powerless and didn't have the right to change it.
Now, a ninja who was supposed to be the future pillar of Konoha has become a traitor. What a pity. If possible, Jiraiya really wants to save her for his Sensei.
"Suigetsu has already told me about the" Caged Bird "." Suigetsu even said that she needed as young a child as possible to do the experiment, but she refused. Jiraiya asked. "What are you going to do next?"
Yumi Hinata's plan was to either kill Zetsu and Zetsu first and then slowly find a way to unlock the "Caged Bird", or find a way to unlock the "Caged Bird" first and then immediately kill Zetsu and Zetsu.
The common point of these two paths is that she needs someone to help her.
Either she needs someone to help her pin down Zetsu so that he can't activate the "Caged Bird", or she needs someone to help her figure out how to unlock the "Caged Bird" while she's half-heartedly doing missions.
But in fact, she doesn't dare to let someone else study the "Caged Bird". She doesn't want another mountain to be added to her head.
So right now, the best path is actually to cooperate with Konoha. She can provide information or act as bait, and Konoha will clean up the traitor ninja Uchiha Zetsu and his accomplices.
But it won't be easy to hide this from Lantern Full Moon and Zetsu, so she has to think of a safe way.
"I'm going to …" Yumi Hinata said slowly. She was beginning to feel that although Hyuga Suigetsu's snitch was unexpected, it might be of great help to her. "Continue to figure out how to unlock the" Caged Bird ". Experiments like this have to be done a few more times. Once all the wrong directions are tested, the right one will appear."
Jiraiya was a little surprised. "You've changed your mind?"
"Suigetsu really tells you everything." Yumi Hinata muttered in a low voice. Then she said seriously, "No, children are indeed more useful than adults. But it's the same to find a few more adults and do a few more experiments. It's just a little more troublesome." For example, something that can be solved in two months with a child might take half a year with an adult, and three or four people would have to take turns.
Yumi Hinata said maliciously, "Jiraiya -sama, if you didn't come today, I would've lured Yasuji out of Konoha."
Jiraiya wasn't moved by her malice. He keenly noticed what she didn't say. "Suigetsu can't continue to cooperate with you? Is he injured? "
Yumi Hinata choked and leaned back lazily in the chair. "It's not really an injury, but he really can't bear any more … He has to rest for at least a few months."
Previously, in addition to using Chakra to explore Suigetsu's brain, she also tried to use Chakra to penetrate the black "Caged Bird" root. This kind of behavior brought him more pain than the manipulation of the curse.
Although Suigetsu was undoubtedly a strong-willed ninja who was good at patience, he was also a human. After more than ten days of the experiment, he had begun to show symptoms of PTSD. He was anxious for no reason, had insomnia, and was overly vigilant of anyone who approached him, even if the person was his trusted teammate.
Yumi Hinata speculated that this was not only because he had engraved the "Caged Bird" for a long time and the curse had penetrated most of his brain, but also because he was a very good perceptual ninja.
Even within the Hyuga family, there was a group of people who had better perceptual abilities than others. Even if they had the same perceptual distance, the world would be clearer in their eyes, so they would be more sensitive to the pleasure and pain of their own body. Yumi Hinata was like this, and so was Hyuga Suigetsu.
Therefore, Yumi Hinata, who discovered this, didn't hesitate to send Hyuga Suigetsu back. She just wanted to find a test subject, not torture him into a madman. In the future, it would be better to choose someone with a weaker perceptual ability as much as possible. However, Suigetsu, who was highly cooperative, sturdy, and sensitive enough to accurately feedback the experimental results every time, was indispensable. After he rested, he could be recycled.
"Is that so, he didn't mention this matter." Jiraiya thought that since Suigetsu didn't mention his injury, it should be a psychological problem that he himself didn't notice. Although ninjas didn't know the term "PTSD", they had seen this phenomenon many times, and experienced people knew what was going on.
But according to Yumi Hinata's words, she would seduce the Hyuga family to become a defector ninja in less than two years.
After hearing Hyuga Suigetsu's confession, Jiraiya knew very well how tempting it was to release the "Caged Bird" control for Yasuji. After Yumi Hinata's defection, the atmosphere in the Hyuga family was also very strange, but only a few people who were loyal to the main family hated her for betraying them. Although most people were dissatisfied with her cruel actions, they were mostly grateful, agreed, and even admired her.
Ninjas' pursuit of power was instinctive. Yumi Hinata killed five people in one night without giving them a chance to activate the "Caged Bird", which fully proved her strength. Some Hyuga family members even thought that this was the most perfect performance she had ever performed her duties as the head of the branch family.
And this was also one of the reasons why Konoha didn't send people to hunt down Yumi Hinata after issuing the bounty.
Konoha currently had hundreds of Jonins in service. Except for special forces such as the Enchantment Squad, the Signal Squad, and the Intelligence Department, there were only about a hundred Jonins on the front line. However, there were dozens of retired Jonins from the Hyuga family working in various departments in Konoha. These people were not only important in combat, but they were also irreplaceable in terms of investigation. They were indispensable forces in Konoha.
Yumi Hinata's revelation that someone outside of Konoha could control the "Caged Bird" was too important. It was related to the loyalty of hundreds of Hyuga family ninjas who had already planted the "Caged Bird" and their lives.
Since there was a foreign enemy, they couldn't stop Yumi Hinata from researching how to unlock the "Caged Bird". However, they couldn't let all the Hyuga family members who cooperated with her become traitors. Otherwise, by the time she was done with her experiment, the traitors she pulled out would be enough for her to start a new life outside of Konoha. No, if she used the "Caged Bird" as bait, there might not be many Byakugan left in Konoha.
Jiraiya made this judgment and quickly raised his glass to finish his wine. "The Land of Hot Water is a good place to rest and recuperate. Will you be staying for a while?"
Yumi Hinata responded. "If there's nothing else."
"Then wait for my news." Jiraiya stood up and said, "I once fought side by side with Diurnal Difference on the battlefield. Since you want to unlock the shackles of the Hyuga family for hundreds of years, let me help you. I will try to persuade Hokage to send someone to cooperate with you instead of forcing them to choose the path of traitors."
Yumi Hinata was silent for a moment. This was much better than the best result she could think of. It was so good that she began to have other ideas.
"Okay, I'll wait here for Jiraiya -sama's good news." Yumi Hinata smiled. "I hope it's good news and not a trap to catch a wanted criminal like me."
Jiraiya laughed and turned to leave.
After he left, Yumi Hinata was in a good mood. She ordered a bunch of new dishes and asked Lantern Full Moon to eat with her.
