Inside Hyuga Hiashi's home, Hyuga Hiashi is a little uneasy.

Although Sandaime had said that this matter will not involve the Hyuga clan, Hyuga Hiashi still did not feel assured.

As a head of the Hyuga clan, Hyuga Hiashi is well aware of the current situation in Konoha.

After the Kyuubi's attack, Konoha lost a lot of combat power.

Not only Yondaime Hokage-death, but there are also the death of a lot of strong Shinobi.

This loss caused Konoha's Strength to be unable to recover in a short period of time.

After all, it takes a lot of time for Shinobi to grow up.

There are only a handful of geniuses that can become strong in just a short amount of time. Not everyone can complete can advance from Genin to Jōnin in just three years.

A lot of people take ten years or even decades to complete the process.

Therefore, Konoha's condition right now is not good, and they won't be able to withstand a war against another village.

Hyuga Hiashi understands this truth. If Sandaime can't solve this problem, he knows that he needs to be sacrificed.

Between the greater good and the individual, every qualified leader will definitely choose the greater good.

Hyuga Hiashi, as a clan head, naturally understands this truth.

Just when Hyuga Hiashi was thinking about it, the door was knocked.

"Nii-san, are you inside?"

The sound is very familiar to Hyuga Hiashi, so Hyuga Hiashi said without hesitation: "Is it you Hizashi? Why did you come here when it's so late? Come in."

The door opened, and the person who comes in had the same face as Hyuga Hiashi, and every time they met, they had a strange feeling like looking in the mirror.

"Nii-san, it's so late now. Why are you not still asleep?"

"Ah, I am thinking about something. So why are you coming here right now?"

"Nii-san, I heard about that Kumugakure's Shinobi want to frame you, what are you going to do about this?"

Hyuga Hiashi frowns and then he said, "I don't know, if Sandaime-sama can't solve this problem, I am afraid that I can only sacrifice myself."

Hyuga Hizashi then said: "No Nii-san, you are the head of the Hyuga clan, and as the Head of the clan, you must not die, and you must not fall into the hands of Kumogakure."

Hearing this, Hyuga Hiashi just smile and said "There is no other way to do it. Whether it is Konoha or Hyuga clan, we can no longer withstand another war. If my sacrifice can be exchanged for peace, then it will be good enough."

"Nii-san, the Hyuga clan can't live without you. If someone really needs to die, then let me replace you! After all, my role is to be your shield as we have the same face."

"Hizashi, what are you talking about! If you died, what about Neji!"

Hearing this, Hyuga Hiashi roars, he absolutely won't allow Hyuga Hizashi to die for him.

"Nii-san, if you are dead, what about the Hyuga clan! What will happen to Hinata!"

Hyuga Hizashi didn't back down, and he directly asked Hyuga Hiashi these two questions.

Hyuga Hiashi is speechless after hearing this.

At this moment, the door of the room was opened, and it was a white-haired old man who also has a pair of Byakugan.

The one who come inside is the great elder of the Hyuga clan!

"Hiashi, Hizashi is right, you have the mission as the Main Family member, so nothing must happen to you. Even if it's not for yourself, you should be responsible for the Byakugan that the Hyuga clan has passed down to this day. Hizashi is from the Branch Family. It is his mission."

"But…but I can't let Hizashi die for me!"

Hyuga Hiashi said, and then Hizashi hit his tekkensu to make him fainted.

"Hizashi…you…"

"Nii-san, this is not my mission as a Branch Family member, but it is the first time I can make my own choice. I am not doing this because you are the Main Family member, but because you are my big brother. So I'm sorry Nii-san. Please take care of Neji for me."

This is the only thing Hyuga Hiashi heard before he faints.

Putting Hyuga Hiashi on the bed, Hizashi then said: "Elder, let's go find Sandaime-sama."

"Hah, Hizashi, you are wronged."

"No, this is my own choice."

Hizashi's tone is full of determination as he said that.

On the border of the Land of Fire, the sun rises again, but it seems a little bleak.

The Watchtower's surrounding seems very quiet, it looks very abnormal.

Konoha's shinobi's defensive line has gathered at the Watchtower.

"Kakashi, all the shinobi on the border is here," Hyuga Tobio said.

"Okay."

Then Kakashi stood in front of everyone, the 17-year-old Kakashi now has a mature charm and charisma.

As soon as he stops there, the aura of the strong was involuntarily released.

Originally there are some people who feel annoyed, but they change their mind after seeing Kakashi's aura.

This kind of aura, they know that it is almost the same as Sandaime.

"You all, this time, Kumogakure is provoking us, and now I am afraid that they are already on the other side, like a tiger watching his prey, maybe there will be a bloody battle later."

Hearing this, everyone look at each other in dismay. Although Hyuga Tobio has told them to increase their alertness, but they did not know that it was because of this matter.

"This is the first line of defense for Konoha. Behind you are your parents, childrens, and friends. In order to protect Konoha, let's fight to the end!"

The best thing to say is the direct fact. After hearing the speech, everyone had a strong force in their hearts.

"Please."

Kakashi release a deep sigh, 'The battle will probably be bloody.'

On the border of the Land of Lighting, Yondaime Raikage is standing in front of dozens of Shinobi.

"Raikage-sama, it's time."

"Okay, let's go everyone!"

"Yes!"

Kumogakure moves quickly and runs through the woods.

It didn't take long for Yondaime Raikage to feels that something strange.

"Everyone stops!"

Yondaime Raikage shouted, hearing this, Kumogakure's Shinobi naturally stops.

"Raikage-sama, what's wrong?"

"There's someone! Who is there, come out!"

Yondaime Raikage roars at a direction.

"As expected of Yondaime Raikage, you're really strong. You can find me so easily."

A silver-white figure appeared, and then dozens of shinobi appeared behind him.

Seeing this, Yondaime Raikage frowned.

"Konoha's Shinobi?"

"This is the territory of the Land of Fire. It is naturally for Konoha's Shinobi to be here, but Raikage-sama. It seems that you are crossing the border."

Kakashi said coldy.

"Hmph! You Konoha people kill the envoy of the Land of Lighting, so we naturally have to get here to get some justice."

"Raikage-sama, you sure are despicable. I think you are clearer than me about the truth of the matter. You want to bully Konoha, but it won't happen."

"Hmph! Crazy brat, looking at your appearance, are you Hatake Kakashi? Your teacher may be able to stop me, but you won't be able to do it too!"

"You can try!"

The two men glare at each other, and the battle was imminent!
