And he had no choice but to do it.
If he doesn't do it, Kitazawa can bypass him and do it, and then their main family will face annihilation.
He knew which choice to make: sacrifice Hyuga Jōju or sacrifice the entire main family.
Besides, he had long been dissatisfied with the Hyuga distance setting.
If it weren't for him, Hyuga Hizashi wouldn't have died.
"Tokuji".
Hiashi Hyuga began to speak.
"Chieftain."
Hyuga Tokuma appeared before him.
He used to be Hinata Hyuga's bodyguard, but after she joined the genius class, he became Hanabi Hyuga's bodyguard.
The reason is that Hinata Hyuga no longer needs guards.
Her current strength is no less than that of an average Jonin.
There won't be any danger in Konoha Village, and with Kitazawa and Hiruzen Sarutobi leading the team on missions outside, nothing will happen.
It would be a waste to have Hyuga Tokuma serve as her bodyguard.
"Go and summon these Jonin to my study."
Hiashi Hyuga then mentioned the names of several branch family Jonin.
He didn't summon all the special Jonin and Jonin, because it would be too conspicuous and might arouse suspicion from Hyuga Setsukuni.
"Yes, clan chief."
Without giving it much thought, Hyuga Tokuma turned and left immediately.
"Fireworks, continue your training."
Hiashi Hyuga returned to his study.
He sat on the sofa and poured himself a cup of hot tea.
It wasn't until I took a sip that I came to my senses.
Everything that happened today was still too sudden for him.
After all, such an important matter was decided in just a few words.
Hiashi Hyuga sighed.
He had a feeling that the times were changing too fast.
This feeling started when Hinata and Neji received those two bows.
Tsunade is alright, but Kitazawa is young and powerful, and it's hard to say how much the future of Konoha will change.
Fortunately, the Hyuga clan had already established a good relationship with him beforehand.
Now comes the most crucial moment.
Time passed as Hyuga Hiashi lost in his own thoughts.
Not long after, all the branch family Jonin he had notified had arrived.
There are five people in total, including the core members of the family and the younger generation. In short, these five people can decide the direction of the family division.
"Chief, what brings you here?"
Hyuga Himon asked the question first.
“Take a look at this ninjutsu scroll first.”
Hiashi Hyuga took out the ninjutsu scroll that Kitazawa had given him and handed it to him.
"Ok."
Hinata Hido opened the scroll, and with just one glance, he froze on the spot.
What did he see? A caged bird that was not controlled by the main family?
What is the clan leader trying to do? Is he cutting off his own arms? Or is he testing our ability to split up the clan?
Hinata Hido was filled with questions.
It's no wonder he overthinks things. Although they have five Jonin on their side, if Hiashi Hyuga uses the Caged Bird Seal, they'll all have to kneel down and beg for mercy.
Hyuga Iroha noticed his expression and a look of curiosity crossed her face.
What kind of ninjutsu made him so unable to control himself?
After reading it, Hinata Himon silently handed it to Hinata Iroha.
"?"
Hyuga Iroha glanced at it twice and immediately showed the same expression as Hyuga Himon.
He hesitated for a moment, then handed the ninjutsu scroll to the next person.
A moment later, all five of them had finished reading. They looked at each other, unsure of what to say or what Hyuga Hiashi meant.
"I think this improved version of the caged bird is very good."
Hiashi Hyuga slowly said, "From now on, all members of the clan will be subjected to this caged bird torture."
All the clansmen?
Hyuga Hido and the others were shocked.
If everyone is the same caged bird, would there still be a distinction between the main family and the branch family?
"Unfortunately, Elder Dingju disagreed."
Hiashi Hyuga changed the subject and said...
"?"
Hinata Himon and the others immediately felt like they had been tricked.
