Konoha: Archers of the Hyuga family

It was an unsuccessful exchange.

Danzo's face is very ugly... Although he has always been like this, this time his face is particularly dark, as black as the bottom of a large iron pot that has been used for more than ten years...

Because he is solely responsible for redeeming the hostages.

Now not only were two loyal subordinates dead, but also a genius who was in the limelight... Although this was what he planned, he didn't expect that Hinata Wang, a member of the clan, would also die outside.

The most important thing is... I lost my head.

The dead person is secondary, the loss of the Byakugan is the big deal.

Because of this incident, Koharu and Mito Kaden both took the side of Hiruzen and blamed themselves. Originally, the Daimyo and other senior officials were already dissatisfied with Hiruzen because of the war...

However, despite his shame, he still had to attend the funeral.

The funerals of Hinata Kumikawa and Hinata Nozomi are today. Their families still don’t know that Danzo planned this incident...

……

"I am sorry for your loss……"

Sarutobi Hiruzen laid a wreath and patted Hinata Tatsumi's back gently.

Tatsumi bowed slightly.

"As a ninja, Kumokawa should have expected that one day, Hokage-sama."

"Ugh……"

Hiruzen shook his head and left with a sigh.

Except for Sarutobi Hiruzen, no other high-level officials came to see Hinata Kumokawa off. After all, there was only one person to take care of.

On one side is the dead genius of the branch family and his ordinary parents, on the other side is the dead Hyuga clan and his elder grandfather...it is obvious that the residual value of the Tatsumi family is far less than that of the next door.

Most of the people who came were Hinata Kumikawa's classmates, as well as ninjas who had worked with him before, such as Namikaze Minato...

Zaoda Ya and Kushina arrived with Minato, and then stayed with the heartbroken Hinata Rei.

In short, for Hinata Tatsumi and his wife.

Although I have been mentally prepared for a long time, I will not feel that the sky is falling, but it is still like a thousand arrows piercing my heart.

Tatsumi was okay and could still respond to the funeral attendees.

Rei had been kneeling and sitting next to the body of "Hyuuga Kumikawa" without saying a word or showing any expression. Even if Kushina or Zaoda Ya said anything, he would just nod slightly or make a vague hum.

……

……

"How could this happen? He was so strong, how could he simply die?"

Obito was dressed in black, clenching his teeth tightly as he held the Q version of Obito that Hinata Kumikawa gave him.

Although he has always had a bad relationship with Hinata Kumikawa...

But that's just a grudge between children. In addition to the fact that Hinata Kumikawa didn't show mercy to Lin at the beginning, there's also the fact that everyone likes to compare Hinata and Uchiha.

Whether it was at the beginning or now, Obito was obviously firmly suppressed by Hinata Kumikawa. Over time, it was inevitable that he would feel a little jealous, and he also had a little hostility towards Hinata Kumikawa...

But he always admitted in his heart that Hinata Kumikawa was a good companion.

In a sense, it is even the goal he has been chasing...

"With soil..."

Lin tugged on his cuffs, signaling him not to lose his temper here.

"He killed seven Ninja Swordsmen by himself. He was the most powerful ninja in the Ninja Village. How could he be killed so easily..."

"Obito, face the reality."

Kakashi suddenly said something from the side.

Obito raised his head and glared at Kakashi, but did not retort...

No way, that's what ninjas are like.

In this regard, Kakashi has more say.

He is the only survivor of the Sarutobi Ryuu Squadron... Originally, Hinata Kumikawa was also a member of the Ryuuga Ryuu Squadron. From today on, he is really the only one.

Of all the students of Sarutobi Ryuichi, only Kakashi is still alive.

"By the way...have any of you seen Illya?"

Lin asked quietly.

In their small circle, Illya and Hinata Kumikawa were bound to be a pair by default, just like Kurenai and Asuma from the next class...

Lin was a little worried as she didn't see her today.

After all, the relationship between the two is there. Illya can almost be said to have regarded Hinata Kumikawa as a family member. Her liking for Kumikawa may be a bit inappropriate. Her feelings for Kumikawa can almost be described as "admiration".

Now that Hinata Kumikawa is gone, let me take a look at Illya's perspective.

For an ordinary girl who has lost her parents and suddenly lost her spiritual support, she should... break down for a while, right?

Kakashi shook his head.

"No, she didn't come."

There were only a few people in total, and you could see them all at a glance.

"Let's go see her later. I don't feel very good~"

"Ah."

……

At this time, Illya was still covered in bed.

She had learned about Hinata Kumikawa's death in battle yesterday. At that time, she felt as if she had been thrown into the icy lake of the Kingdom of Iron. Her mind went blank for a moment, and her limbs seemed to be out of control...

She couldn't even recall how she got back to bed.

Then, I should have fallen asleep...

In short, it was only now that Illya realized that she was still alive. From hearing the news yesterday to this moment, all the memories seemed to have been swallowed by an abyss.

She couldn't feel any emotions, she just felt tired...very tired~

Very tired.

Every muscle in the body is unable to exert strength.

It seems that growing up is not a good thing. I never felt this way when my parents died before. I was just afraid...

……

……

"It's really interesting. Everything you care about has left you. Everyone you care about is sad and sorry for you. When Bai Jue comes back, he can tell you who cried the hardest... It's really ridiculous. What did you do in the end after all you did? I can’t even keep it!”

Black Jue taunted loudly in the iron box.

Hinata Kumokawa sat on the boulder, with the ninja scroll and Samehada beside him. The setting sun in the distance was slowly setting, and it had been "submerged" by the sea water. Half of the sky was dyed red.

What will his death bring... Hinata Kumikawa had already thought about it a long time ago. This matter was not a whim, it could even be said to have been planned for a long time.

It is inevitable that parents will be sad.

In this regard... at least he was ready to face bad news, and he could accept no matter what the outcome was.

Anyway, the ninja world can even do things like resurrection. As long as you have enough chakra, there is nothing you can't do if you master the Rinnegan.

Moreover, the living Hinata Kumokawa is not as useful as the dead Hinata Kumokawa.

Living people will always have worries and weaknesses, but dead people will not have them, and dead people will not be bound by secular rules. Only dead people are free... That's why Obito will be invincible after going to the commemorative monument.

As for Illya who has not replied to her yet...

If she decided, it would only be more convenient for the dead Hinata Kumokawa to help her.

As long as she can have that consciousness...

"Hei Zetsu, do you know what it feels like to be a free man?"

"Free people...hehe, no one is free in this world."

"Try it, there will always be something~"
