The tribulation boss in Konoha World

Chapter 171 Jiraiya’s Exploration (4k)

Hyuga Hizashi opened his Byakugan and saw clearly the true face of the suspicious intruder who was disguised as a Hyuga clan member and couldn't help shouting: "Jiraiya-sama?"

Hinata Hiashi never expected that the person in front of him from the perspective of his white eyes turned out to be the famous Konoha ninja Jiraiya.

Jiraiya saw that Hinata and Hinata had seen through his transformation technique, so he did not intend to hide his identity anymore and directly lifted the transformation technique.

"Jiraiya-sama, what are you doing?" Hyuga Hiashi asked in surprise, "Why did you pretend to be a Hyuga clan member and sneak into the Hyuga clan territory?"

Jiraiya pondered for a moment, then said, "I'm here to find you, Hizu."

"Looking for me?" Hinata Hiashi was a little puzzled, "Jiraiya-sama, what do you want to see me for? I am no longer the leader of the Hyuga clan. If there is anything important to discuss, it is better to contact the clan leader Hyuga Nishiki. "

"No, I'm only here for you." Jiraiya didn't want to hide it, but said it clearly, "I'm only here to ask you something."

"Is that so?" Hinata Hiashi frowned, "Jiraiya-sama, come into the guest room with me, and let's sit down and talk slowly."

He brought Jiraiya into the guest room and made tea for himself and Jiraiya.The two of them sat face to face on the tatami, and the tea on the low table was steaming.

"Jiraiya-sama, what do you want to ask me about?" Hyuga Hinata said, "I may not know as much as you do. After all, you often wander around the ninja world, and I am just a member of the Hyuga clan who has been sitting for a long time. People who don’t leave home.”

"I would like to ask, what is the current situation of the elders of the Hyuga clan?" Jiraiya picked up the tea cup, gently blew the heat away from the cup, and took a sip.

As soon as these words came out, Hinata Hizu's entire face changed.

"The elders are old and now they live in seclusion and don't care about family affairs. I don't know what the situation is." Hinata lowered his eyelids and pretended to be calm.

On the surface, he looked calm, but his heart skipped a beat, and he was a little panicked for a moment.

He knew Jiraiya well. Although he had a high status in Konoha, he had an indifferent personality and rarely cared about the affairs of the village, let alone the internal affairs of other ninja clans.

Now he suddenly asked about the elders of the Hyuga clan, which made Hinata a little confused and wary.

The elders of the Hyuga clan had been killed by Hyuga Nishiki in the coup that year, and their bones were probably already turned into ashes.Revealing old things now will only stir up turmoil again for the Hyuga clan, which has established a new order and entered into stable development.

Hinata Hizatsu felt that the current Hyuga clan, under the leadership of Hyuga Nishiki, had a vague air of careerist rule, but overall it was relatively stable and peaceful.He didn't want to break the peace again.

So no matter what Jiraiya's purpose is when he asks the elders of the Hyuga clan, Hyuga and Hizu will not reveal any relevant information to him.

"Is that so?" Jiraiya took another sip of tea, pondered for a moment and then spoke again, "I want to meet the elders. We haven't seen each other for many years. It's a rare visit to the Hinata house. It's time to meet the elders."

"This is not something I can arrange." Hyuga Hiashi said nonchalantly, "The elders in the clan are old and cannot withstand too much trouble, so they basically don't show up much now. I want to see The elders need to apply to the clan leader for a meeting.”

"Is there such a rule?" Jiraiya was surprised.

There are naturally no rules. After all, the elders have become broken bones buried in the ground.It's just that Hinata and Hinata were teasing Jirai.

Jiraiya stared at Hinata and Hinata, his fingers caressing the tea cup unconsciously.Naturally, he could tell that Hinata Hizu was bluffing him and was unwilling to reveal more information to him.

"Speaking of which, in the Hyuga clan, has the relationship between the clan and the branch clans been eased?" Jiraiya suddenly changed the subject, "When I was wandering around your clan, the relationship between the clan and the clan seemed to be different from before. It’s so hierarchical.”

"Huh?" Hinata Hizu didn't expect Jiraiya to suddenly change the topic. He didn't react for a while, and his expression became a little stiff and unnatural. "Now the relationship between the main family and the branch family has indeed eased a lot. This is what we have always said. The harmonious relationship we have been pursuing since.”

"I see... Such a change is a good thing for the Hyuga family." Jiraiya looked at Hinata Hizashi meaningfully, "Is this change caused by the current clan leader Hyuga Nishiki? If so, she It can be said that he is a very good family leader.”

Jiraiya's questions seemed to be very ordinary questions, but Hinata Hizu knew that each of these questions pointed directly at the changes that had taken place in the Hyuga family after Hyuga Nishiki came to power.

Jiraiya himself arrived unexpectedly, and his continuous changing of questions gave Hinata and Hinashi less time to formulate a perfect and unobtrusive answer. He looked completely at a loss, and Jiraiya immediately saw the flaw.

"It seems that my question is too direct." Jiraiya smiled, "Let's talk about a more relaxed topic. In your mind, Hinata Nishiki, the patriarch of a separate family, what kind of person is he? Where are the people?"

Hinata Hizashi was already very familiar with such problems. Just as he was about to open his mouth to say something cliche, he saw Jiraiya staring at him with deep eyes.

"Well." He lowered his head, blew away the tea foam floating on the mouth of the tea cup, and took a sip of tea. The words that were originally pouring into his throat could not be said at this time.

"The evaluation of the ninja Hyuga Nishiki in the village is not unanimous." Jiraiya said leisurely without waiting for Hinata Nishiki to finish drafting, "The people at the bottom think that she has made meritorious deeds on the battlefield and is here. Later, he refused the unreasonable demands of the Kumo ninja and defeated the Konoha hero of the Eight-tailed Jinchuuriki of the Kumo ninja.

"The chuunin and genin think that her experience of becoming the leader of a clan and the Hokage advisor in the village despite her ordinary background is very legendary. Young ninjas regard her as their idol."

This is indeed true. Hyuga Hinata knows that there are many young and young ninjas in the Hyuga clan who worship Hyuga Nishiki, including his own daughter Hyuga Hinata.

"But many jounin and ninja clan chiefs seem to be very afraid of Hyuga Nishiki." Jiraiya gently put the cup on the table, "That's not fear caused by respect, but more fear. Like fear, fear.”

"I want to know, Hizu, as the head of the previous generation of Hyuga clan who has been replaced by power, how do you evaluate this junior Hyuga Nishiki." At this time, Jiraiya's face did not have the cheerful smile of the past at all, but was serious and solemn. .

This attitude also oppressed Hinata and Hinata, making his fabricated words even more difficult to say.

After a long silence, he slowly answered: "Jin-kun, she is a powerful ninja. Although she cannot be said to be a good clan leader based on her actions, the Hyuga clan is still stable under her leadership. The ground is moving forward. That’s enough.”

The corners of Jiraiya's mouth twitched slightly.What Hinata Hiashi said seemed to say a lot, but in fact he said nothing.

"What Hyuga Nishiki did is not considered a good clan leader?" Jiraiya didn't want to give up just like that, but asked further, "Why do you say that?"

Hinata and Hinata were a bit overwhelmed by Jiraiya's aggressive attitude and couldn't retreat.

He took a deep breath, raised his head, and looked directly at Jiraiya: "Jiraiya-sama, although it is rude to say this, I still want to say that this is a private matter of the Hyuga clan, and you are asking a little too much."

Jiraiya didn't expect Hinata Hizashi to respond so forcefully. After pondering for a moment, he suddenly let out a hearty laugh, and at the same time reached out and patted Hyuuga Hizashi on the shoulder.

"Why are you so nervous? I'm just asking casually. I'm really sorry for offending the Hyuga clan." He still had the usual smile on his face.

Seeing him like this, Hinata's originally tense heartstrings relaxed slightly.

After that, the two of them drank tea and chatted for a while, mostly talking about ordinary issues.

Hinata Hizu asked Jiraiya if he had any intention of accepting a disciple. Jiraiya fooled him casually, then asked Hyuga Hizu about his daughter's practice, and put forward some suggestions based on his previous experience in teaching disciples.

The two chatted for a while, and Jiraiya stood up and said: "It's been a long time since I've talked to someone for such a long time. Communication can really relieve people's stress. I'll stay soon, Hizu."

He left Hinata and Hinata's residence, and when he walked outside, he transformed into an ordinary face of the Hyuga clan, turned a corner, and disappeared from Hinata and Hinata's sight.

Walking in the Hyuga clan's territory, Jiraiya kept sorting out the information he had obtained after talking to Hyuga Hizashi.

"More and more clues are conveying a message to me, that is, Hinata Nishiki has a big problem." Jiraiya's eyes flickered, looking at the Hyuga tribe members walking by.

At this time, the night was already dark, and with the cover of shadows and darkness, Jiraiya's identity was less likely to be detected, and he wandered around the Hyuga clan's territory more and more unscrupulously.

"Hyuuga Hizashi must know everything, but he doesn't want to tell me." Jiraiya looked at the Hyuga clan members passing by and made a new decision.

He got stuck in the shadows formed by the night and street lights, and quietly activated his transformation technique. His face suddenly changed into another appearance, exactly like that of the Hyuga clan member he had knocked unconscious before.

Then Jiraiya walked to the street with this face on his face and stopped a male Hyuga tribesman who was passing by.

"Sorry, I have some personal questions to ask. Can you come over here?" He took the arm of the Hyuga tribesman and led him to the corner.

"Naoya, what are you doing?" The Hyuga clan member was a little impatient, "Have you squandered the living expenses distributed by the family again and are you planning to borrow money from me? Let me tell you, don't make any assumptions about borrowing money. Now, if you are short of money, just do the tasks for me honestly."

This person seemed to be familiar with the Hyuga clan member that Jiraiya transformed into.

"I just want to ask, do you know where the elders live now?" Jiraiya said directly.

His question made the Hyuga clan member stunned for a moment, unable to react for a moment.

"Naoya, what did you just ask me?" he asked blankly.

"I ask you where the elders live now?" Jiraiya felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart and repeated the words again.

"Are you confused by your sleep?" This tribesman looked at Jiraiya with strange eyes, "Weren't those elders already executed when Master Hyuga Nishiki came to power?"

As soon as he said these words, Jiraiya couldn't help but his expression changed drastically, and his heart was filled with turmoil!

"Dead?! Killed by Hyuga Nishiki?!" He muttered in a daze.

The Hyuga clan member opposite him also instantly realized something was wrong, "Why would you ask such a question? You are not Naoya!"

Veins popped out from the corners of his eyes and cheeks, and his white eyes quickly opened, trying to see the true face of this guy who was infiltrating in disguise.

However, before he could see clearly, he received a heavy blow on his neck and he passed out.

Jiraiya retracted his palm and activated his transformation technique again, transforming into the appearance of the unconscious Hyuga tribesman.

He hid the person in a corner of the shadows and walked out in his appearance.

"Hyuga Nishiki actually killed all the elders of the Hyuga clan. This really surprised me." Jiraiya looked solemn.

He had imagined a lot of the real situation of the Hyuga clan, such as the elders being under house arrest, but he did not expect that Hyuga Nishiki, who was born in a separate family, would be so ruthless and decisive, directly killing all the clan elders!

"For such an important matter, the Hyuga clan has collectively lost its voice. Even the previous clan leader, Hyuga Hizashi, is unwilling to say more. There must be a bigger secret involved." Jiraiya decided to continue to investigate.

This is the fastest way Jiraiya can think of to obtain intelligence information. Use other people's faces to get information. If the situation is not right, knock them unconscious, change their faces and continue to strike up conversations to get information.

After gathering enough information, he would change back to the vague face that he had sneaked in at the beginning and sneak out.

Then Jiraiya found another opportunity, followed the same pattern, and struck up a conversation with another Hyuga clan member.

"Do you feel that the relationship between the main family and the branch family has been too harmonious recently in the family?" Jiraiya asked.

The man he was chatting with frowned and glanced at Jiraiya: "Changgo, what's wrong with you? Are you the kind of person who cares about family affairs?"

"Just out of curiosity." Jiraiya replied.

"Hey. Those people from the Zong family definitely don't want to live in harmony with us. Many of them still want to go back to the old days when we were divided into families and used as slaves." The Hyuga clan member sneered.

"But times have changed now. We all have the same caged bird curse mark on our bodies. No one can do anything about the other. The only person who controls the caged bird is Mr. Hinata Nishiki."

Jiraiya's pupils suddenly narrowed after hearing these words.
