Ten days passed in the blink of an eye. It was the same afternoon as usual, but the streets of Muye were exceptionally quiet.
Because today was Muye's important celebration, the Cloud Country, which had been at war with Muye for many years, finally sent an envoy to sign a peace agreement with him.
" He's here!!!"
" Hidden Cloud's envoy!!!"
"And Mu Ye's frontline troops!!”
With a few surprised voices, the streets of Muye erupted into loud cheers, welcoming the arrival of peace and the heroes who returned from the battlefield.
Hearing the voices of the surrounding crowd, he leaned against the side of the street and gently opened his eyes to look at the door of Muye. His gaze was erratic.
The door slowly opened, and a large group of people walked in. In front of them were a few ninjas riding horses. They were the envoys of Hidden Cloud who had come to sign the peace agreement.
Behind them was a large group of ninjas, led by the Pig Deer Butterfly trio, Yuan Fei Shinosuke, Kakashi, and Yueyue Xiyan.
" Instant!!!"
After entering the door, Xiyan saw the crowd leaning against the street from afar and waved her arms at him happily.
When he heard the soft cry of the oriole, he looked over and saw Xiyan waving at him happily. He smiled happily and waved back at her, ignoring Moonlight and Gale, who had a livid face at the back of the army.
" Is that the person…" He turned to the leader of Hidden Cloud's team.
It was a middle-aged ninja with stubble all over his face. He wore a black blindfold under his loose Cloud Ninja Guard, and one of his eyes was exposed.
It was this guy who kidnapped Hinata and was killed by Hinata Hinata, making Hinata Hinza the scapegoat…With a different thought in mind, he carefully sized up this ninja.
As the team gradually went deeper, the crowd around Muye Street cheered even louder. It was a peaceful cheer.
"What a surprise." As he was sizing up the messenger, he did not notice that another ninja had already arrived in front of him.
"Isn't this the white-eyed demon that made people tremble in fear on the battlefield? Since when did he return to the village in advance?”A 30-year-old Hidden Cloud Jounin rode his horse to the front of Setsuna. He had the viciousness of someone who had just returned from the battlefield. He looked down at Setsuna with a mocking expression.
Gradually, the cheering crowd quieted down.
Everyone's attention was focused on Moment and this Cloud Ninja.
"I haven't seen you on the battlefield before.”Faced with Yun Ren's provocation, Moment glanced at him with a playful look." If you have the time to provoke me, I think it's better to go back to the village and pay tribute to the hundreds of your compatriots who died in my hands, isn't it?”
"You!" Yun Ren growled. His words pierced the deepest wound in his heart. He would always remember the scene of his senior, Cang Mu, being carried back to the village, spitting out blood and failing to save him.
"Shut up! Don't forget why we're here!”Yun Ren interrupted him and gave him a dissatisfied look.
"Humph!" Yun Ren, who had been reminded, seemed to suddenly remember his mission today. He pulled his horse back and walked back to the team.
He looked disdainfully at Yun Ren, who was retreating. If he were to meet him on the battlefield, he couldn't guarantee what kind of ice sculpture he would turn him into.
He shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly and squeezed out of the crowd. He didn't have time to attend the celebration today. He still had to attend the inheritance ceremony of the Hinata clan...
………………
In the evening, in the ancestral hall of the Hinata clan.
When Setsuna arrived, the empty space at the entrance of the ancestral hall was already filled with members of the Hinata clan. When they saw Setsuna coming over, Ringtone, the little girl, secretly waved at Setsuna from the corner.
Day difference's family of three, who were standing in the front row, nodded and greeted when they saw Moment. When they stood beside Day difference, they realized that there was a white bandage on Ning Ci's head. It seemed that the curse of division had been engraved.
" I'm very happy to see everyone gathered here today. Today is an important day for our Hyuga clan. Apart from the birthday of my daughter, Hatata, this is also her inheritance ceremony as the successor of our main clan..."
On the steps at the entrance of the ancestral hall, Hinata spoke to all the members of the Hinata clan. Besides Hatata and a row of ninja guards behind him, there was also a short old man. He was an elder of the main clan, the father of Ri Zu and Ri Chai. His authority was even higher than that of the chief of the clan.
Hatata was wearing a colorful kimono today. She stood timidly beside Heliozu and looked down at the many clansmen below. She was shy like a docile rabbit and did not dare to look up at the people below.
The Sunichi Sect Master's lengthy speech and the complicated inheritance ceremony lasted until dark. Only after it ended did the crowd in front of the ancestral hall gradually disperse.
A white full moon hung in the sky, covering the earth with a layer of silver light. Countless insects chirped in the forest, making the sleeping Woodleaf Village seem especially quiet.
Suddenly, a commotion came from the main house of the Hinata clan. Dozens of members of the Hinata clan were holding burning torches and searching for something in the surroundings. Immediately after, the commotion spread to the entire Hinata clan. Countless ninjas of the Hinata clan woke up from their sleep. Under the orders of the main clan, they rushed to all parts of the ninja village to search for traces of the enemy.
The moment he had fallen asleep on the bed, the noise from outside immediately woke him up.
" That thing still happened…" He hurriedly put on his clothes and rushed out of the room.
The dark night was a natural barrier for all the sins under the night sky. When Moment arrived at the Hinata clan's mansion, it was already brightly lit. Dozens of ninjas from the branch families were holding torches and clustered around it. In the middle, a corpse in black lay at the feet of Hinata Hitoshi.
In an instant, he pushed aside the crowd and looked over. The corpse on the ground was the leader of the Hidden Cloud's peace negotiation team at the Muye Festival today. It was Cloudbear, who was wearing an eye patch!
"Lord Patriarch!" At this moment, the other Japanese clansmen who heard the commotion also rushed over. Some of them did not even have time to put on their clothes properly and carried all kinds of ninja tools in their hands.
"Inform Lord Naruto immediately! The leader of Yunren attempted to abduct the heir of the main family of the Sunny Clan and pry into the secrets of the Sunny Clan. He has been killed by me. This matter is of great importance. Go now!”Seeing the clansmen rushing over, Ri Zu realized the seriousness of this matter and shouted at the people around him. This concerned his daughter, his family, and the entire Muye clan.
"Yes!"
………………
Did it still happen?
At dawn, Setsuna was already standing in the meeting room of the Hyuga clan's main clan. Other than herself and dozens of branch clan members, there were also elders of the Hyuga clan and the main clan, as well as the third generation Naruto and a few other ninjas who had already arrived.
"I've already spoken to the Cloud Country's representative before I came.”Sitting in the conference room of the Hinata clan, the third-generation successor kept puffing smoke from his mouth." It's obvious that their actions this time are to investigate the secret of White Eyes..."
" But just now, they insisted that the Cloud Ninja was killed in Muye for no reason..." At the meeting table, the third-generation successor put down the pipe in his hand and stared at the people present.
