The tribulation boss in Konoha World

"The body has been dried, but it is still very well preserved. You can see Kirabi-sama's injuries before his death. Traces of ninjutsu on the body were detected." Kumo Ninja reported to the Fourth Raikage.

This tall man with a fiery temper was now livid, and his fists were clenched tightly, making a crackling sound like exploding beans.

Since Kirabi died here, that means that the Kumo ninja finally died to the powerful tailed beast, the Eight-tailed Gyuki.The Kumo ninja no longer had the tailed beast in his hand.

"Take Bee's body back for autopsy." The Fourth Raikage turned his back and stopped looking at Kirabi's shriveled body. "I want to find out who killed him."

"According to the research conducted by the Iwa Ninja, it is speculated that the ninjas under the Akatsuki organization were responsible for the attack." Akumo Ninja replied, "I'm afraid Kirabi-sama is also..."

"The person who can kill Bee is not an ordinary member even in that kind of rebel ninja organization. He is most likely a cadre or leader." The Fourth Raikage interrupted Kumo Ninja's words, "Anyway, check it out for me. !”

The Kumo ninja looked at the face of the Fourth Raikage, did not dare to say any more, and stepped back in agreement.

"The Akatsuki Organization...you are so brave." The fourth generation Raikage's falcon-like eyes were filled with sharp light, and murderous intent rushed to his forehead uncontrollably.

……

In the Konoha Hokage's office, Tsunade looked at the thick report presented by the ANBU and rubbed her temples. For a moment, she just felt exhausted and speechless.

"The jinchuriki of various ninja villages disappeared one after another. Now it is found that it seems to have a close relationship with the mercenary organization called Akatsuki. The traces of ninjutsu on the bodies of the jinchuriki found point to the rebellious ninjas in the Akatsuki organization."

"This Akatsuki organization still participated in the assassination of the Third Generation mercenary organization, and the Konoha rebel Uchiha Itachi was hiding in it."

Tsunade sighed, relaxed her forehead, and tapped her white fingers on the solid wood tabletop, thinking deeply.

On the one hand, she was now worried about whether something would happen to Konoha's Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki, and on the other hand, she was thinking about what this mercenary organization called Know-how wanted to do.

The sealing techniques in the tailed beast jinchūriki of each ninja village are relatively mature, and it is difficult to easily extract the tailed beast from them.The reason why the Ninja Village wants to attack the Jinchuuriki of other Ninja Villages is because they want to kill the Jinchuuriki and let the tailed beasts die and be reborn, so that the enemy Ninja Village loses important tailed beast combat power.

"I don't understand. The most important thing right now is to find the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki quickly." Tsunade showed a worried look, "The ANBU haven't found any useful clues so far, alas."

"I don't know what that guy Jiraiya is doing. If he is still here, he can at least help me share some of the pressure of handling affairs." Tsunade sighed softly.

She didn't know that Jiraiya, whom she was thinking about at the moment, was tracking down Hinata Nishiki, the high-ranking advisor to the Hokage in Konoha.

It was already dusk, and Jiraiya hid his figure in the shadows of the street, taking advantage of the darkness of the night, and looked at the clan mansion gate at the end of the street from a distance, which was the clan of the Hyuga clan.

When Jiraiya was tracking down the murderer Uchiha Yingetsu who destroyed Mt. Myoboku, he locked onto another person who might have a major connection with him, Hinata Nishiki.

Hinata Nishiki's background is actually very difficult to withstand investigation. Jiraiya walked around Konoha Village for two days and quickly got a lot of useful information.

For example, she was originally just a member of the Hyuga branch, but she was able to withstand the pressure of the Hyuga clan and became the head of the Hyuga clan.

Jiraiya thinks he has some understanding of the Hyuga clan, and knows how the only family in the village that has preserved the traditions of the Warring States Period is a conservative and hierarchical ethnic group. In this environment, Hyuga Nishiki, as a branch member, The young female ninja from a family background has almost taken advantage of all the unfavorable political factors.

Even in such an environment, she was still able to climb to her current position, and there was no negative sound coming from Hinata's family. This was actually a very scary thing.

"Is such a strange situation just ignored by those guys in the village? Tsk, they are all a bunch of slick guys." Jiraiya clicked his tongue and cursed secretly in his mind.

He didn't believe that the big and small ninja clan in Konoha wouldn't know anything was wrong if he, a solitary person, could detect it.It's just that Hinata Nishiki has squeezed the Hyuga family like an iron bucket, and he is at the height of his power, so he doesn't want to cause more trouble.

"The current state of the Hyuga clan is very strange. For such an abnormal clan member and clan leader as Hinata Nishiki, they have no voice of criticism." Jiraiya looked at the gate of the Hyuga clan's clan, "I have to find a member of the Hyuga clan. The clansmen should get to know each other well.”

The understanding he expressed was naturally not the same as ordinary inquiries and conversations.

Looking at the thick night, Jiraiya's figure flickered, stepping on the shadows intertwined between the buildings and the night, walking silently through the streets.

"On this trip, we have to pay attention to the group of Hayabusa wearing digital masks under Hinata Nishiki." Jiraiya thought silently as he walked.

It's not like Jiraiya has never seen the Hayabusa ninjas under Hyuga Nishiki's hands.This group of people gave him the feeling of being mysterious and unfathomable, and they all had a dangerous aura about them.

If there are any other problems with Hinata Nishiki, this group of [Falcon] tribes with obscure auras are another doubt.Where did she recruit such a group of people?

"Now that Mt. Myoboku is destroyed, I can't borrow the power of the two immortals Fukasaku and Shima. I can't use the immortal mode, and my combat power has dropped a lot. It's not suitable for a head-on collision with the forces under Hyuga Nishiki's command." Jiraiya He is very clear about his fighting ability now.

Although he also practiced the sage mode of Mount Myoboku, his sage mode was flawed. His ability to control the sage chakra and natural energy was limited. He could only rely on the two sages, Fukasaku and Shia, who were channeling him to sit on his shoulders. Enter fairy mode.

Jiraiya lurked forward cautiously, crossed the wall of the Hyuga clan's territory from a hidden corner, and sneaked into it.

Jiraiya walked through the quiet corridors and paths, looked at the winding paths in the distance, hesitated for a moment, and walked straight up.

He thought for a while, and finally made a hand seal, and his body shape changed, turning into an ordinary-looking middle-aged man with the signature white eyes of the Hyuga clan.

The Hyuga clan is considered a big clan in Konoha, and even among the clan members there are situations that they are not too familiar with.The appearance of Jiraiya's transformation is also very particular. The face is a common face, the type that no matter who looks at it, will feel a sense of familiarity.

Transforming into a real Hyuga clan member is actually a better choice, but Jiraiya doesn't know the movements of these clan members. If two Hyuga clan members with the same faces meet in the clan territory, they will be exposed instantly.

From this point of view, the Hyuga tribesman who transformed into a real person is really more hidden than him fabricating a face that looks familiar but does not really exist.

The Byakugan of the Hyuga clan can be said to be the nemesis of ninjutsu such as transformation. As long as someone opens the Byakugan, they can easily see through Jiraiya's transformation.

But Jiraiya was sure that in a safe place like the Hyuga clan's territory, most people would relax their vigilance, and no one would deliberately open their Byakugan to observe him, and his transformation technique would most likely not be seen through.

Jiraiya walked majestically among the Hyuga clan with the face of a Hyuga clan member, occasionally nodding hello to the Hyuga clan members he passed by.

Those Hyuga clan members really didn't see through Jiraiya's false identity. They just muttered a few words in their hearts when they passed him by, "What a familiar face, who is he?"

In this way, Jiraiya got mixed up in the Hyuga clan.

"The family structure of the Hyuga clan seems to be similar to that of the Uchiha clan except for the family division system. In addition to the head of the clan, the people in power also have several family elders. They also have a very important say. "Jiraiya thought silently.

Jiraiya had met the elders of the Hyuga family before, but after Jiraiya left the village and the elders of the Hyuga clan stayed behind closed doors, they hadn't seen each other for many years.

"It's strange to say that these elders of the Hyuga family are not taking care of things now? Why did I hear many Hyuga clan members discussing the clan leader Hyuga Nishiki and things in the village along the way, but I didn't hear them mention the family elders?" Jiraiya suddenly said Found something strange.

"Why don't you ask someone?" Jiraiya pondered. When he saw a Chuunin from the Hyuga clan walking towards him, he took the initiative to greet him.

"What? Is something wrong?" The Hyuga Chuunin saw Jiraiya walking towards him and was a little strange, "Are you... Huh? Who are you? You look familiar, but I can't remember it for a while. name……"

Jiraiya would not give this man any more time to think. He quickly stepped forward and pulled this man to the corner, and whispered to him: "Hey, wait a minute, I have something to ask you."

"What?" The Hyuga Chuunin was stunned when he heard this.

Jiraiya pondered for a moment, then said: "Did something happen to the elders of our clan recently? Why haven't you heard anyone mention them?"

Originally, Jiraiya thought this was just an ordinary question, no big deal. Unexpectedly, as soon as the question was uttered, the face of the Hyuga clan chuunin opposite him suddenly changed, showing a look of horror and surprise.

"What's wrong..." Jiraiya said in surprise. Before he finished speaking, he saw veins bulging at the corners of the eyes of the Chuunin of the Hyuga clan, and he opened his eyes!

"You are not a member of the Hyuga clan, you are..." Before the Hyuga clan chuunin could finish his words, he was knocked unconscious by Jiraiya's quick hand sword.

"What's going on?" Jiraiya gently supported the chuunin's fallen body, recalling the look of fear and surprise on the chuunin's face just now, and was very confused.

"I just mentioned the elder of the Hyuga clan, and this man's expression changed. It seems that something is really wrong." Jiraiya took a deep breath and hid the man in a nearby corner.

Then Jiraiya swaggered out again. He did not turn into the chuunin just now, because this certain appearance would allow people to quickly identify his identity, and his identity would be revealed during the conversation. .

In comparison, this vague face is more useful.

Jiraiya walked along, and the more he looked at it, the more strange he felt.

According to his original impression, the Hyuga clan should be in a state of strict hierarchy among the clan clans. There is a huge gap in dignity between the clan ninjas and the clan clan ninjas.

Along the way, he also saw and recognized one or two clan ninjas, but when the branch ninjas on the side talked to them, they completely lost the inferiority they had before, and they were talking completely on an equal footing.

"Is it because Hyuga Nishiki, who was born in the branch family, became the clan leader, so the status of the branch family changed?" Jiraiya thought silently, "Or maybe something happened in the Hyuga clan that caused the status of the branch family to rise. To the same level as the Zong family, was this the success of Hyuga Nishiki's rise to power?

"What's the relationship between the two?"

The longer he observed and wandered among the Hyuga clan, the more confusion Jiraiya felt.

"By the way, there is another person who must know most of the inside story." Jiraiya suddenly had an idea and remembered a key figure in the Hyuga clan.

The Hyuga Clan leader before Hyuga Nishiki, Hyuga Hiashi.

As the patriarch of the previous generation, he must be clear about the power transition of the Hyuga clan and what happened to the Hyuga clan in this process.

As long as he finds him, Jiraiya thinks that all his current confusions will be solved.

"I remember that the place where Hizu lives seems to be over here?" Jiraiya had been to the Hyuga clan and the residence of Hyuga Hizu many years ago. He searched his memory and headed in another direction. Go.

……

After Hinata Nishiki became the family patriarch, he became disheartened and retreated to the second line. Although he still had the title of Jonin, he actually no longer went on missions. He stayed at home every day and drank. He drinks tea, practices calligraphy and painting, and basically doesn’t care about family affairs anymore.

After experiencing the catastrophe of Hyuga Nishiki, his whole personality changed a lot, he became a lot more indifferent, and he was somewhat afraid of power.

His daughter Hinata Hinata is very ambitious to learn from Hyuga Nishiki and become the second Hyuga kunoichi who is famous in the ninja world.For this reason, Hinata and Hizu had a headache, but there was no good solution.

On this day, Hinata Hizu was leisurely at home as usual, sitting in front of the courtyard, making himself a pot of tea, setting up the table, spreading out the white paper, and getting ready to start practicing calligraphy and painting.

At this moment, he suddenly felt something in his heart. He looked up and looked out of the yard, and saw an ordinary-looking member of the Hyuga clan walking in from the door.

"Who are you?" Hinata Hiashi frowned, "What are you doing here?"

He used to be the leader of a clan, and he knew the members of the clan relatively clearly. When he looked at this person, he felt a little strange, not like a member of the Hyuga clan.

After a moment of hesitation, Hinata Hinata's eyes popped up with veins, and his white eyes opened instantly.

When he saw the identity of the person with his Byakugan, he was a little stunned for a moment: "Jiraiya-sama?"
