Moreover, they have a legitimate reason: after abolishing caged birds, they can no longer protect white eyes.
At that time, the Hyuga clan will become the target of everyone's attacks, and many enemies will hunt down the Byakugan.
"Is Chief Rizu unwilling to tell me the truth?"
Kitazawa said with a smile, "I came to you with the intention of helping you solve your problems."
"Your solution is to abolish caged birds?"
Hiashi Hyuga hesitated for two seconds before saying, "But that's not realistic."
Why is it unrealistic?
Kitazawa countered, "Is it because you can't protect the Byakugan after abolishing the Caged Bird Seal, or because you can't maintain the main family's status?"
Hiashi Hyuga's expression changed slightly.
How can such unspoken rules be brought up in public?
If it weren't Kitazawa who said this, he would definitely have immediately asked him to leave.
"Clan Chief Hiashi, as you know, I have some talent for creating ninjutsu."
Kitazawa took out a ninjutsu scroll and said, "This is a new ninjutsu that I recently modified. Please take a look."
Hiashi Hyuga paused for a moment, not understanding why he suddenly changed the subject.
He suppressed his doubts and opened the ninjutsu scroll.
Upon seeing this, his pupils dilated in shock.
A modified caged bird? That's unbelievable!
As the head of the Hyuga clan, he was well aware of how terrifying the Caged Bird Seal was.
The Hyuga clan has existed for over a thousand years, and during this long period, both the main family and the branch family have studied the Caged Bird Seal.
No, to be more precise, the entire ninja world has studied the Caged Bird technique, including the Five Great Villages.
After all, whoever can break the caged bird will receive countless scornful glances.
But no one succeeded, not even the main branch of the Hyuga clan.
That is why the Hyuga clan's main family feels completely at ease.
How could Kitazawa accomplish something so difficult?
If it can be improved, it can be cracked; that's beyond doubt.
Moreover, this improved version removed the side effects and the control of the main family, leaving only a simple protection for the Byakugan.
Kitazawa's purpose in doing this is self-evident.
Hiashi Hyuga felt a jolt in his heart, sensing that a storm was about to break.
What would have happened if Kitazawa hadn't gone to see him first, but instead went to see the branch family of the Hyuga clan?
No, perhaps he had already contacted them beforehand.
For Kitazawa, who is the next Hokage, the large branch family of the Hyuga clan is obviously more valuable.
Once the improved Caged Bird Seal is implemented, the Hyuga clan's branch family will definitely be extremely grateful to him and thus remain loyal to Konoha.
At that time, the Hyuga clan's main family will be ignored.
As Hiashi Hyuga thought about this, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Clan Chief Hiashi, rest assured, you are the first Hyuga ninja to see this ninjutsu scroll."
Kitazawa noticed the change in his expression and said with a smile.
Hiashi Hyuga felt somewhat relieved upon hearing this.
He now felt that this ninjutsu scroll was like a time bomb, which could blow up the main branch of the Hyuga clan at any moment.
"Kitazawa, what are your plans?"
Hiashi Hyuga composed himself and asked.
"That depends on your plans."
Kitazawa casually said, "I am an outsider; you are the head of the Hyuga clan."
Hiashi Hyuga fell silent.
Although he had considered abolishing the caged bird policy, he hesitated when faced with the prospect of a shutdown.
Kitazawa wasn't surprised.
Hiashi Hyuga is actually somewhat similar to Fugaku Uchiha.
However, he was more self-aware. The Hyuga clan was not as radical as the Uchiha clan; they preferred to maintain the status quo.
Since joining Konoha Village, they have all supported the Hokage; they'll help whoever wins.
"I've already discussed this matter with Tsunade-sensei."
Kitazawa added, "She supports you too."
Hiashi Hyuga naturally didn't believe it.
Tsunade definitely doesn't support him, but Kitazawa.
"The modified caged bird is indeed better."
After thinking for a long time, Hiashi Hyuga said, "But there are two problems."
"What's the problem?"
Kitazawa, holding a cup of tea, asked.
"The first problem is that if this is extended, the Hyuga clan will no longer have a distinction between the main family and the branch family."
Hiashi Hyuga took a deep breath and said, "But I'm worried that the branch family might take action against the main family because of past grudges."
"You don't need to worry about that."
Kitazawa said with a serious expression, "Both the main family and the branch family are ninjas of Konoha Village. It is not allowed to harm ninjas from the same village."
