Chapter 226 - Chapter 226: Soup Country Pause

Hyuga Soraye and Hyuga Cangli are both Jonin from the Hyuga clan of Konoha. They look very young, only twenty-three or twenty-four years old, which is the time when a ninja is most energetic.

Although like many Hyuga ninjas, these two also have long black hair and look quiet and artistic... in other words, they are commonly known as taciturn and half-mute, but generally speaking, they are the kind of ninjas with ambition.

Being more enterprising and wanting to do something is a common attribute of young ninjas or new generation ninjas.

And just today, the two of them received orders from the Third Hokage, asking them to participate in an important mission... Naturally, the two were happy to accept such an order.

The first step of this important task is to report to the "Shadow Stream", and after the report, the Hokage requires them to completely obey the arrangements of the Shadow Stream's organizational head, Jonin Hanyu.

Although Hanyu's reputation is not as popular, it does not mean that he has gone into obscurity again. On the contrary, as time goes by, many Konoha ninjas have labeled Hanyu as an "elite ninja".

Even if some people think in their hearts that he is a "strong shadow master, so terrifying", it is possible.

Therefore, in front of Hanyu's record, even the proud Hyuga ninja will remain humble... What's more, the Hyuga's arrogance is very restrained.

The two Hyuga ninjas followed orders and came to the door of an ordinary building. Then they opened the door and found a hidden downward passage in the room... Before the Byakugan, most hide-and-seek games were meaningless.

After arriving at a completely unfamiliar and even pitch-black underground space, the two Hyuga ninjas habitually opened their eyes to observe the surrounding situation, but gradually, they discovered that their insight abilities were severely disturbed.

Even if they mobilized their pupil power, they could only see a white chakra barrier. As for the situation behind the barrier, it was completely invisible.

"It's an interference barrier to prevent detection."

"Yeah, and the chakra density in this area is too high."

The two Hyuga ninjas were communicating in this way, but just when their attention was focused on the barrier of the Shadow Stream underground base, a voice sounded quite abruptly in their ears.

"Are you two the Hyuga ninjas sent by the Third Hokage? Please follow me."

In this sudden situation, the Hyuga ninja was frightened... Why does this guy look like a ghost?

Appearing without warning next to the strongest scout ninja would scare a person to death. Fortunately, the two Hyuga ninjas knew that this was Konoha's territory, so they were only startled and did not subconsciously launch an attack.

"Master Hanyu?"

"It's me, please follow me."

The person who appeared behind the two of them was naturally Hanyu.

In the barrier set up by Uzumaki, Hanyu is able to "move freely". In other words, if he cannot avoid Hyuga's Byakugan in the Shadow Stream's base, it only means that the barrier set up in this base for a long time is a shoddy project.

And when the two Hyuga ninjas subconsciously turned around to face Hanyu, something even more blinding happened... You have to know that these two are now in a state of open eyes, so they just happened to see the circulation of Hanyu's chakra.

Under the powerful illumination of the Byakugan, some of the ninja's little secrets are exposed. So, why does Hanyu have two meridians? It's really outrageous and unreasonable.

Or is this the legendary copy ninja? The kind that copies the chakra to run the meridians?

The most distinctive feature of Hyuga's soft fist is that it strikes the meridians and acupoints to block the enemy's chakra circulation. So the question is, how should the soft fist deal with a situation like Hanyu's?

So in a sense, Hanyu does seem to be able to restrain the two major eye techniques.

"Two?"

After Hanyu took two steps forward, he found that the two Hyuga ninjas were still standing there, so he could only stop and turn around again to remind them... He thought to himself that maybe the Third Hokage had sent two defective products over, because these two ninjas looked a little stupid.

His idea was correct, because the two Hyuga ninjas sent by the Third Hokage must be ninjas from the branch family... The Hyuga ninjas who were cursed with the "bird in a cage" seal were defective products, and they couldn't even be restored to factory settings.

According to Hanyu's understanding of the Hyuga clan, after a generation of Hyuga people reaches adulthood, only the head of the family or the successor of the head of the family is the head of the family, which means that each generation of Hyuga has only one pair of complete Byakugan, so those eyes are extremely precious. Therefore, in the next Shadow Stream's actions, the Hyuga clan can't send the head of the family.

As for later on, the situation in Hyuga seemed to have improved slightly... After all, no matter how strict the clan rules of the Hyuga clan were, they would not dare to carve green words on the forehead of the Hokage's wife.

If we stand in the position of a bystander , although "The Bird in the Cage" infinitely elevates the status of the head of the Hyuga family, so that even if the head of the family is a waste, he can have the power of life and death over the members of the branch family, it is undeniable that "The Bird in the Cage" protects the Byakugan and the Hyuga clan.

After all, when a large-scale war is going on, the Byakugan is a "strategic item" that is far more valuable than the Sharingan.

So keeping a bird in a cage may be inhumane, but the benefits are actually huge... From this perspective, the Hyuga clan is the most conservative ninja clan that values bloodline the most.

Of course, this is just Hanyu's "criticism". If he was born in a branch family of Hyuga, he would definitely not think so.

"Yes, Master Hanyu."

After Hanyu's reminder, the two Hyuga ninjas finally reacted, and then they immediately closed their pupil power... Looking at their own people so "blatantly" was suspected of wantonly collecting intelligence, which was undoubtedly extremely impolite, and even seriously speaking, it could be regarded as a hostile behavior.

Fortunately, Hanyu doesn't care about this kind of thing. Just watch it, it won't lose anything.

Hinata could only keep his doubts in his heart. They followed Hanyu closely, and then the three of them came to the platform on the upper level of the Shadow Stream underground space.

Here, the ninjas ready to take part in the action have gathered.

Hanyu, Sakumo, six Uzumaki ninjas led by Uzumaki Shiko, and the two Hyuga ninjas who had just arrived, formed a team of ten people.

Seeing Hanyu coming, Shiko immediately showed him a scroll with a black background and red edges, indicating that everything was ready. Then she put the scroll away carefully.

Hanyu nodded. The most important thing was to complete it on time before departure.

"The team has been assembled, so we are about to set off. Our first destination is the Land of Hot Springs... It's just an island country with a small ninja village. I heard it's also a famous tourist attraction.

Kumo Village is not a particularly aggressive ninja village, so everyone just relax, our mission is just like sightseeing."

The two ninjas from Hyuga looked at each other. They still didn't know what the next specific mission was, but... sightseeing? If it was really sightseeing, that would be great.

Without disturbing anyone, Hanyu led the team from Konoha and arrived at the Land of Hot Springs peacefully along the way.

But when this group of people set foot on the land of the Land of Hot Springs and arrived at the first town by the sea, they ran into a group of elite ninja troops from the Hidden Mist that were equal in number to the Konoha side...

So, what about vacation and sightseeing?
