Rebellion, starting from the Hyuga branch

.................

Hinata Minazuki ignored the shouts of fighting and killing around him. He had his own mission.

He made a seal with one hand and opened his eyes.

The black silent vision expanded rapidly, and in a moment he caught the strange chakra!

It was obviously the leader of the bandits, a wandering ninja!

"The strength is not high, probably at the level of a Chunin."

Hinata Kaitsuki knew what was going on, and flew by quickly. Not long after, he saw a wandering ninja wearing ronin clothes and carrying a package. He was obviously not prepared to fight the enemy head-on.

Seeing that his base was exposed, he was ready to run away.

""Swish, swish, swish!"

Three shurikens were like a gust of wind, going straight to the back of the wandering ninja.

Takeda Saburo's heart tightened, and when he heard the sound of wind behind him, he made a seal without hesitation.

Swish... traces of lightning remained in the air, and Takeda Saburo's figure instantly appeared on the other side.

"So fast?!"

Takeda Saburo was a little surprised. His hiding place was very secluded and quite far away from the bases of ordinary thieves.

He was so cautious because he wanted to escape, but he didn't expect that the other side would find him.

"That's it, eye roll.."

Takeda Saburo saw the white eyes and his heart sank.

A ninja with a bloodline limit is much stronger than an ordinary ninja.

""A traitorous Kumogakure ninja."

Hinata Kaitsuki recognized the Lightning Body.

Every village has its own unique body-flash technique. The most common one is to use chakra burst to increase the speed of the instantaneous burst.

Another one is the Lightning Body of the Kumogakure Village, which stimulates cells to activate the body and burst out with a stronger speed.

"I thought it was a secret guard of the village, but it turned out to be a Konoha ninja."

"Still a little brat!"

Takeda Saburo's face was filled with murderous intent. Since he couldn't escape, he would fight!

Even if the opponent was the Hyuga clan, he couldn't just sit there and wait for death.

"Eight Diagrams·Charge!"

Hinata Minazuki’s body was as fast as lightning. He took the initiative, raised his hand and used chakra to slap the other side. With a crackling sound

, lightning flashed on Takeda Saburo’s body in an instant. The muscles all over his body swelled up faintly. He dodged sideways and punched back at his temple, aiming directly at the vital point, but it only grazed Hinata Minazuki’s forehead. It was the Lightning Chakra Mode.

In the Cloud Ninja Village, the Lightning Chakra Mode was not considered a secret technique. On the contrary, it was very common. Almost everyone had a set. However, if you want to practice to the level of the Raikage, talent and hard work are indispensable.

Of course, the Cloud Ninja rebel in front of him was naturally at a low level. Generally, it just slightly strengthens the body's functions.

Under the observation of the Byakugan, Takeda Saburo's muscle operation was in full view, every detail was clear!

Hinata Minazuki was a little excited. He was a physical ninja, and he was well adapted to him, which just happened to increase his combat experience.

Chakra energy was faintly running around his body, and Hinata Minazuki's figure was like smoke, sprinting towards the opposite side.

The fists crossed, and both sides tried their best. The inhuman power of the ninja exploded in the air with a loud bang, forming a brief vacuum.

In the world of ninjas, there is no such thing as testing.

It's either you die or I die, or testing......That was the attitude of a strong man facing a weak man.

Hinata Kaitsuki took a few steps back to steady himself. His fists felt numb because he was at a disadvantage in terms of strength.

Takeda Ichiro sensed the opponent's lack of strength, and a hint of pride appeared on his lips. He quickly took advantage of the victory and pursued.

The gap in physical fitness was not something that even a bloody ninja could catch up with overnight.

Next, he just had to be careful not to be hit by the soft fist!

"Little devil! Die!"

Hinata Minazuki's heart was silent. The opponent was stronger and his ninjutsu was also very sophisticated, but as a ninja, it was not a profession that relied on strength to win. He dodged the flying fist with his head tilted, and with one hand, Hinata Minazuki delicately grabbed the opponent's wrist.

For a ninja who was stronger than himself, Hinata Minazuki would naturally not go head-on.

The chakra burst of the soft fist would go through the wrist and directly destroy the opponent's internal organs and meridians!

The opponent also knew the power of the Hinata soft fist. With one hand, he took advantage of the strength of Hinata Minazuki and kicked sideways, trying to force Hinata Minazuki to let go with a stronger force.

Hinata Minazuki's eyes sank, and he let go and raised his hand to block the whip kick.

Takeda Saburo was delighted. The power of the legs was naturally not comparable to that of fists. If this blow was real, it would be enough to injure Hinata Minazuki's arm!

But he did not see the spiral chakra torrent quietly condense....

Bang!

The surging chakra flow suddenly exploded three inches in front of the palm!

Bagua·Inch Power!

The perfect timing of the attack, the concealed and fast burst of moves, quickly completed the final kill of the Cloud Ninja Chunin!

Generally speaking, the battles of ninjas are ever-changing and can be ended in a very short time. Even at the same level, life and death can be reversed because of a detail.

As for the later battles that often lasted for several days, that was after the Gundam was opened.

The bloody smell suddenly surged up, dotted with bloodstains on the gray and white clothes.

The bones were white, revealing the red and white bone stumps.

Takeda Saburo's cry of pain came slowly, but it could not affect the murderous intent in Hinata Minazuki's heart.

""Soft fist, acupuncture points!"

Seizing the opportunity to win, Hyuga Kaigetsu formed a sword finger and tapped the opponent's chest, directly disrupting the flow of his chakra.

Simply destroying his ability to move was not enough. Ninjas were incredible war machines. In addition to their hands and feet, their mouths and noses could also become weapons for killing.

Only chakra was the source of a ninja's power.

"it's over.."

Seeing that he was doomed to fail, Takeda Saburo smiled miserably, his life replaying in his mind. With an ordinary background and ordinary qualifications, he successfully became a Kumo Ninja, was promoted to Chunin at the age of 20, went on a mission, failed, all his teammates were killed, fled in embarrassment, fearing the punishment of the village, he defected and stormed the mountains.....

Bang!

In the end, the enlarged soft fist smashed the brain and lost its life. It was the first time that Hinata Minazuki killed someone, but he didn't feel anything strange.

Perhaps it was because he had been preparing for this moment for more than ten years in his life.

After searching the body, apart from some basic ninja tools and money, no ninjutsu scrolls were found.

"As expected, the secret equipment and so on are all scams."

"Who would carry a ninjutsu secret book with them?"

Hinata Minazuki complained as expected.

Even if it was a secret technique in the brain, many ninja villages would take precautions and seal it with curses, not to mention carrying the village's secret technique with them. This was a stupid measure. After dealing with the backhand, he sealed the body of the cloud ninja with a scroll.

Hinata Minazuki returned to the original gathering place. At this moment, there were almost no living people in the gathering place. Dozens of bandits were killed and blood flowed like a river.

"All solved."

Kakashi stepped forward to report, with a hint of blood on his body.

"There were also some captured civilians, and I gathered them all together"

"You decide how to deal with it."

Hinata Minazuki was not an executioner either, so he said directly,

"Just let them go and give them some of their money.

Suddenly, Hyuga Kaigetsu turned to Uchiha Obito and saw him sitting on the ground with a look of pain on his face.

"What happened to Obito?

Kakashi was a little speechless.

"He was scratched by a trap made by the bandits just now, and Lin is treating him."

Hinata Minazuki also twitched his mouth.

As a ninja, he could still be injured by a trap set by ordinary people.

How can you say that before he turned evil, Obito was really an innate abstract holy body, as abstract as Naruto.

"Well done."

A clear and magnetic male voice sounded, surprising everyone.

"Minato-sensei!"

Obito was surprised. It turned out that Minato-sensei had been watching nearby, probably evaluating their performance!

Damn! This was embarrassing!

He didn't know when he would get a spot to be promoted to Chunin!

After everything was over, Namikaze Minato appeared as expected. Hinata Minazuki

's expression did not change. To guide the jonin, he must have supervised their progress at all times. He was even peeking at them from the side. It was just that the difference in strength was too great, so he was not discovered.

"Minazuki, you have done very well. You are now a capable ninja."

"When you have accumulated enough missions, I will recommend you for the position of Chunin."

Namakaze Minato praised Hyuga Minazuki.

Originally, the mission this time was not to deal with bandits, but to assassinate a politician from the Land of Hot Springs who funded and advocated the theory of threat from the Land of Fire, and the business owner behind him.

This kind of assassination mission is not suitable for group activities, and it is not difficult.

So for the sake of running-in and training, Namakaze Minato took on an additional mission of bandits and gave it to Hyuga Minazuki and others to deal with, also to see the independent action ability of Team 7.

And Namakaze Minato himself completed the mission easily.

Letting Hyuga Minazuki be the temporary captain was actually a whim.

Kakashi is strong and capable enough, but the situation is special. Since the death of Konoha White Fang, the status of the mission has been very unstable and has become extreme. And he will do whatever it takes.

If Kakashi were to do this mission, it would probably cause a bigger commotion.

Therefore, Namikaze Minato chose Hinata Minetsuki as the temporary captain as a test.

After all, a qualified ninja is not just about being strong, but also needs to have a certain strategic and tactical vision to be able to lead a team to carry out a mission alone.

This is something that everyone in Team 7 lacks. Namikaze Minato was a little surprised that he actually saw it in this young boy from the branch family, and he was much better than ordinary ninjas.

His thinking after entering the town, whether it was looking for food stores, exploring brothels, or finding clues about bandits, his thinking and logic were quite clear, revealing his extraordinary command ability.

"I just did what I was supposed to do"

"Minato-sensei, I'm glad you didn't hold me back."

Hinata Kaitsuki smiled gently, with a humble attitude.

"pity..."

Seeing this handsome young man, Namikaze Minato had the same feeling as the Third Hokage. The label of the branch family bound Hyuga Minazuki.

Because it was a branch family, neither Hyuga nor Konoha would put Hyuga Minazuki in an important position.

The Hokage was not omnipotent. Even if he was the Hokage, he could not interfere in the internal affairs of the Ninja Clan.

Even if he knew the irrationality of the Hyuga system, Namikaze Minato knew that even if he became the Hokage, he could not interfere.........

In the Hokage's office,

Sarutobi Hiruzen carefully read the mission report of Team 7, his face was as calm as water, and no emotion could be seen

"Minato, what do you think of Hyuga Kaigetsu?"

The Third Hokage asked the question without looking up.

Namikaze Minato answered without hesitation,

"Very good, not inferior to Kakashi, and more flexible than Kakashi in some strategic thinking"

"Moreover, he is very talented in the art, and is even willing to learn techniques other than the Gentle Fist, which is different from ordinary Hyuga."

Most Hyuga are arrogant and cling to their own Gentle Fist.

Although the Gentle Fist is indeed perfect to a certain extent, it is only limited to the level of Jonin. For the higher level Kage, there is no place for the Gentle Fist.

This is also the reason why the Hyuga have been complacent for many years and have no say at the top level.

The closed system protects the Hyuga, but also destroys the Hyuga.

"So that's it.."

Sarutobi Hiruzen narrowed his eyes. Namikaze Minato gave a very high evaluation. So, this Hinata Minetsuki even has another possibility.

A branch family jonin is just a jonin, but if he is a top-level Kage-level combat force, it will be different.

At this level, no matter what the identity is, it is an important bargaining chip, and there will be more room for choice.

"What's your personality like?"

Namikaze Minato continued to answer.

"He has a gentle personality, is very polite to others, and is kind to civilians, but is a little withdrawn and doesn't like to talk to his teammates."

During the Hyuga Minazuki mission, he cared about his companions on a daily basis, and taught Nohara Rin how to bandage her calves to relieve pain.

When facing the thorny Uchiha Obito, he was quite tolerant and did not harm civilians. He used illusions to obtain memories instead of torture.

When he finally released the rest of the civilians, he also distributed money to them. It is obvious that he is a ninja who sympathizes with the lower classes.

As for withdrawn, there are very few who are not withdrawn from the Hyuga branch.

"Do you think he can be reused?"

The third generation nodded. This branch family boy is indeed excellent from the perspective of Hokage.

Namikaze Minato hesitated for a moment. He was also a little hesitant about Hinata Minazuki's identity, but he still spoke.

"I think it's OK"

"After all, the Hyuga branch is also a Konoha ninja, and is also a part of Konoha."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at this disciple and was a little surprised. Sure enough, an excellent ninja would not live in common sense. Namikaze Minato looked gentle on the surface, but he also had his own ambitions.

"You are right, Minato, the Hyuga branch is also a Konoha ninja."

Sarutobi Hiruzen did not deny it, but nodded in approval.

"My Shadow Guards will basically have members of the Hyuga branch family"

"Their abilities and performance are excellent, which makes people feel at ease."

"Moreover, even among the Uchiha, there are ninjas who are devoted to the Will of Fire."

The third generation's tone became meaningful.

"If you want to use it, use it boldly"

"But the premise is that we are all for Konoha and the Will of Fire. Even if there are differences in ideas, as long as the action is right, it is right."

Minato Namikaze's heart condensed. As smart as he was, he naturally understood what the Third Hokage meant.

Of course, the Hyuga branch family can be used, and it can be used with great confidence.

The only difference is that the branch family is special in that with the restraint of the bird in the cage, his thoughts may be for Konoha, but his actions may not be.

Normally, it is okay. If the Hyuga branch family is placed in a key position, when the interests of Konoha and the interests of the family conflict, how to deal with it?

Even if the heart is towards Konoha, under the control of the bird in the cage, the body of the branch family does not completely belong to him, and it is inevitable that he will make uncontrollable behaviors.

Of course, as long as the branch family is not allowed to touch the key power, it will be fine.

But at the same time, he was also a little excited.

This political way of controlling subordinates represents that the Third Hokage's positioning of him is completely different.
