Hizashi’s House, Hyuga District
After returning home, Hizashi began to make preparations for the meeting with the Otsutsuki.
In the past few years, although has continued his Gentle Fist training, however, because he is mostly involved in the internal matters of the Hyuga Clan, he rarely participates in actual combat, therefore, he has no doubt become a little dull.
For a shinobi about to engage in life and death, this is very dangerous. Even a little negligence can become the cause of death. 𝔣𝖗𝖊𝖊𝖜𝔢𝔟𝔫𝔬𝖛𝖊𝔩.𝖈𝖔𝔪
Hizashi understands this very well, so the first thing he did after returning home was to gather his shinobi tools and enter the training hall.
Just as he opened the door, he saw Neji coming out of the training hall, and asked, “Neji, you were training at this hour?”
“Well…” muttered Neji, then he noted the shinobi bag around Hizashi’s waist and asked, “Otou-sama, you are…?”
As far as Neji can remember, it’s been a few years since his father last used those Shinobi tools, so seeing Hizashi carry the shinobi bag, Neji couldn’t help but get curious.
Hizashi noticed Neji’s gaze, and explained, “I have to perform an important mission tomorrow, it’s nothing too dangerous, but I still need to be very careful, so I am going to train for a while to make sure that I don’t mess up. Enough about me… what are doing so late? You should be resting at this hour!”
“Oh, this…” muttered Neji, and explained, “This month’s assessment is a Taijutsu battle. I want to sharpen my skills and make sure that I don’t mess up this time and lose to Sasuke like last time.”
“I see.” Nodded Hizashi and encouraged Neji, “I believe you can definitely defeat the Uchiha boy.”
Neji smiled, “hehe.” Then looked at Hizashi and asked, “Otou-sama, will you come to the academy to watch the assessment? Everyone’s parents will be there.”
Hizashi asked, “When is the assessment?”
Neji replied, “Next week.”
“Next week…?” muttered Hizashi, then answered after a pause, “If the mission goes as expected, then I will definitely be there.”
Neji’s eyes beamed in joy, and he said, “This time… I going to beat Sasuke and become number one!”
…
Early Dawn of the next day
Before the first light of the day could reach Konoha, Hizashi led two guards assigned as his guards by the main family and quietly left the village.
Since this meeting between distant relatives is a secret, so the location of the meeting was not around the village. It’s in the east, quite far from Konoha.
While travelling through the forest of the Land of Fire, Hizashi secretly glanced behind and breathed a sigh of relief.
A little far away from the three of them, an elite squad is following. It is the duty of the elite squad to protect the three of them in order to make sure that any information they gain from their meeting with Otsutsuki isn’t lost in case of an accident.
After a day of travelling at full speed, the three Hyuga finally could finally see the meeting place, “It seems we are almost there.”
Hizashi nodded, “Let’s take a rest here and recover before continuing forward.”
The two guards nodded, “Yes!”
…
Somewhere in Konoha.
With a smile on his face, Deidara walked through the dark passage.
Since the five Kages are unable to reach any conclusion in regard to Danzo and Akatsuki’s threat, Deidara–Tsuchikage’s guard–is stuck in this underground place.
With his nature, it’s obviously impossible for him to continue to stay in such a dark and gloomy place for so long, so after pestering Sandaime Tsuchikage for a long time, he was finally allowed to move freely for a while. Although he can only roam around in Konoha, that’s still better than being stuck in a dark and dingy room, right?
With such a mentality, Deidara made his way towards the exit. As he approached the exit of the underground passage, he could almost see the bright sunlight and cheered, “I can finally be free!”
Excited, Deidara’s pace increased, and just as he came out of the underground passage he noted two people in Konoha Shinobi gear waiting at the exit.
One of the two Konoha shinobi greeted Deidara, “Nice to meet you once again Deidara-san, this is my friend Sarutobi Asuma. We will be your guide in Konoha. Where would you like to do Deidara-san.”
Deidara’s smile disappeared, “Guide huh…? And you again? Really troublesome.”
Kurenai’s smile didn’t disappear because of Deidara’s deflated expression, and she said, “Please bear with us.” Then she suddenly remembered something, and bowed down, “Also, I want to thank you for that time in the Land of Frost.”
Dediara was confused, “What are you talking about??”
Seeing that Deidara wanted to play ignorant, Kurenai decided to play along, and said knowingly, “Don’t worry, we won’t ask you anything about your organization, I just want to thank you… if not for you, me and my comrades would have perished on that day.”
As soon as the organization was mentioned, Deidara realized what the woman in front of him was talking about, his mood irked and his expression changed, “I have already told this several times. I am not Dojin, nor have I joined that damned organization!”
“Yes… yes… I know.” Nodded Kurenai with a smile.
“You know nothing! You aren’t even listening!” complained Deidara in annoyance, and added, “Humph, if I ever meet those people, I am going to teach them a lesson!”
As soon as Amatsukami was mentioned, Deidara’s expression became gloomy. Because of this stupid misunderstanding, the entire Iwagakure suffered from destruction at the hands of the Akatsuki Organization, which made him hate Amatsukami.
Seeing Deidara’s reaction at the mention of Amatsukami, Asuma was doubtful, and asked Kurenai, “Are you sure Kurenai? Is he really a member of Amatsukami?”
Kurenai nodded, “As far as the information we have on Deidara and Dojin, he is that person, and as you already know the leaders of all the villages also believe that he is Dojin. Of course, this is just a guess, as long as Deidara doesn’t confirm this himself, we can’t confirm this.”
Asuma nodded, “Hmm.”
As Asuma and Kurenai were whispering things with each other, Dediara shook his head, “Forget it, it’s useless to explain to you, people.” Then he took out some clay from his shinobi bag, and while playing with it in his hand, he muttered to himself, “Now then, where should I go first?” and threw the clay on the ground.
Poof!
The clay produced white smoke and took the form of a giant clay bird.
As the clay bird appeared in front of everyone, Deidara smirked at Kurenai and Asuma, and said, “If the two of you can keep up with me, then I don’t mind having the two of you as my guides.”
As Deidara was about to fly away, Kurenai took out something from her Shinobi bag and showed it to Deidara, “Do you remember this?”
Seeing the clay figurine in Kurenai’s hands, Deidara frowned, “That is?” He immediately appeared beside Kurenai, snatched the clay figurine and while observing it, he asked, “Where did you get this?”
“Well, since you want to play this way, then I will be happy to oblige. It was Dojin who gave this to us in the Land of Frost.”
Deidara clicked his tongue in annoyance, “Tch… that fake!”
The clay appears quite similar to the one he uses, and the design is fine too, however, that person has not worked on the finishing. Therefore, Deidara is annoyed. If someone is going to copy him, they should at least put in all the effort, doing half-heartedly just ruins everything.
Of course, Deidara doesn’t believe that anyone is capable of copying his art.
Putting that aside, Deidara injected chakra into the clay figurine as he tossed it on the ground.
Poof!
As Kurenai and Asuma stood on the back of this white clay bird, Deidara returned to his clay bird, and while the two birds took to the sky, he asked Kurenai, “You say that Dojin saved you? Tell me what kind of person that guy is.”
