Chapter 258: Escort and Notification (1)
After processing the letter, Hinata Ichiro looked up and found that it was not only Hinata Kyoko and the four Hyuga clansmen who were waiting for him, but also Tsunade.
"Four elders, Ichiro has made you wait for a long time!" Hinata Ichiro didn't speak to Tsunade first, but said directly to the four Hyuga clansmen apologetically, "I'm really sorry!"
"Young Master Ichiro, it's okay!" said the eldest of the four Hyuga clansmen.
"Sister Kyoko, introduce these four elders to me!" Hinata Ichiro said.
"Okay, Young Master Ichiro!" Hinata Kyoko agreed.
After agreeing, Hinata Kyoko began to introduce: "Young Master Ichiro, this is Hinata Masao, this is Hinata Shigeichi, this is Hinata Yoshimitsu, this is Hinata Yutaka." โ
"Among them, Hinata Masao and Hinata Shigeichi are upper ninjas, and Hinata Yoshimitsu and Hinata Yutaka are elite middle ninjas!"
"Sister Kyoko, I know!" Hinata Ichiro nodded, and then said, "Four elders, I don't know who is in charge among the four of you?"
"Young Master Ichiro, it's me!" Hinata Masao said.
"It turned out to be Uncle Masao!" Seeing that it was the eldest of the four Hyuga clansmen who spoke, Hinata Ichiro said suddenly.
"Yes!" Hinata Masao nodded, then asked, "Young Master Ichiro, why does Kyoko have the patriarch token of the Hyuga clan?"
"Yes!" Hinata Shiuichi said, "Young Master Ichiro, in order to get the people in the command center to agree to send the four of us back to Konoha, Kyoko actually showed the patriarch token of the Hyuga clan in the command center, which shocked many people in the command center at that time!"
"Four elders, the patriarch token in Sister Kyoko's hand was given to Sister Kyoko by me, and at the same time, Sister Kyoko refused to transfer the Hyuga clan's clansmen back to Konoha when she showed the Hyuga clan's patriarch token when she returned to Konoha was also signaled by me!" Hinata Ichiro said, "As for me asking Sister Kyoko to find the four elders over, the main reason is to entrust the four elders with a very important matter!"
"Young Master Ichiro, please speak up!" Hinata Masao said.
"Since I am carrying a heavy responsibility at this time, I can't leave the front line of the battle between Konoha and the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, so I would like to ask the four elders to escort one thing back to Konoha!" Hinata Ichiro said with a serious face.
"Young Master Ichiro, what is it that requires two upper shinobi and two elite middle ninjas to escort back to Konoha?" asked Hinata Masao.
"A bite of ice coffin!" Hinata Ichiro said briefly, "a corpse!"
"Ice coffin?" Hinata Shigeichi asked with concern, "Young Master Ichiro, whose body is it? Could it be that anyone in the Hyuga clan died?"
"Four elders, that body is not from our Hyuga clan!" Hinata Ichiro shook his head, and then said, "As for whose body it is, all I can tell you now is a little bit of the identity of that body!"
"Young Master Ichiro, what is the identity of that body?" asked Masao Hinata.
"Uncle Masao, the identity of that body is a perceptual ninja from the Fog Hidden Ninja Village in the Land of Water that I killed!" Hinata Ichiro looked at Hinata Masao and a few others, and then said, "As for other details, then please forgive the four elders, because it's not time to say it yet!"
"The reason for this is that the secret in it involves the core secrets of our Hyuga clan, so I won't reveal anything without my father-in-law's permission!"
Hinata Masao and several others and Tsunade were full of doubts when they heard Hinata Ichiro say that the body was a perceptual ninja in the Fog Hidden Ninja Village in the Water Country that he killed-Hinata Masao and others and Tsunade didn't understand why Hinata Ichiro wanted to kill the ninja of the Fog Hidden Ninja Village; Hinata Masao and several others, as well as Tsunade, are very aware of how important a family's core secrets are to this family (because once a family's core secrets are leaked, the family will be ruined at best, and the family will be destroyed at worst.) ๏ผใ
"Young Master Ichiro, we understand the rules!" Hinata Masao said with a solemn face.
"That's good!" Hinata Ichiro said.
After speaking, Hinata Ichiro sealed his hands.
"Ninja Technique, Shadow Clone Technique!"
"Poofโ"
With a soft sound, one of Hinata Ichiro's shadow clones was summoned.
"I'm going to work hard for you!" Hinata Ichiro said to his summoned shadow clone.
"It's okay!" Hinata Ichiro's shadow clone said with a smile.
As soon as the words fell, Hinata Ichiro's shadow clone walked towards the ice coffin guarded by Sunset Red and Mitarai Red Bean.
After coming to the edge of the ice coffin, Hinata Ichiro's shadow clone first let himself float in the air on the ice coffin, and then sat down on his knees while forming a seal with both hands.
"Secret Technique, Sealing Technique!"
With the performance of this series of actions, two Tai Chi patterns, one large and one small, appeared in front of Hinata Ichiro's shadow clone - the large Tai Chi pattern slowly fell, and then the bag then wrapped the entire ice coffin, while the small Tai Chi pattern slowly rose, and then merged into the forehead of Hinata Ichiro's shadow clone.
Seeing the entire ice coffin wrapped in a large Tai Chi pattern, and feeling the small Tai Chi pattern on his forehead, Hinata Ichiro's shadow clone nodded with satisfaction.
Then, under the control of Hinata Ichiro's shadow clone, the ice coffin floated in the air.
The next moment, Hinata Ichiro's shadow clone flew to Hinata Ichiro's side with an ice coffin.
After his shadow clone finished the relevant preparations and flew back to his side with the ice coffin, Hinata Ichiro spoke: "Four elders, return to Konoha this time, and my shadow clone will return with you!"
"At the same time, in order to prevent accidents from happening, and also to ensure the safety of the ice coffin, the four elders must have seen the sealing technique performed by my shadow clone just now, in other words, my shadow clone is already closely related to the ice coffin at this time!"
"In addition, during the trip back to Konoha, everything is resolved through consultation between the four elders, and there is no need to ask for the opinion of my shadow clone - because my shadow clone is already in a state where I can only see but not talk at this time due to the sealing technique!"
"When I return to the village to see my father-in-law, my shadow clone will take the initiative to lift the sealing technique that I just performed on the ice coffin!"
Speaking of this, Hinata Ichiro paused, and while handing the letter that had been written in his hand to Hinata Masao, he continued: "Uncle Masao, once you encounter an enemy attack on the way, if you feel that the four of you can't break through safely when you work together, then please destroy this letter quickly!"
"Yes!" Hinata Masao promised, "Master Ichiro, I understand!"
"Uncle Masao, because the content recorded in the letter is very important, so there must be no mistakes, otherwise it will cause a big disaster!" Hinata Ichiro said with some anxiety.
"Young Master Ichiro, Qing, don't worry, once something goes wrong, I will destroy the letter immediately, and I will never let the letter be lost!" Hinata Masao said.
"That's good!" Hinata Ichiro nodded, and then said, "Four elders, now please go back and prepare for each of you, come over as soon as you are ready, and then set off immediately to rush back to Konoha to avoid having a long night of escorting the ice coffin back to the village!"
"Yes!" Hinata Masao and the others replied in unison.
After answering, Hinata Masao and several others returned to their respective camps and prepared to go.
After Hinata Masao left, Tsunade stepped forward.
"Tsunade-sensei, I'm really sorry that you came here and made you wait for a long time!" Hinata Ichiro said apologetically.
"It's nothing!" Tsunade shook his head, and then said, "Ichiro, I was in the command center when Kyoko went to the command center to transfer the Hyuga clan's clansmen!
Speaking of this, Tsunade paused, and then asked with a slight frown: "Ichiro, looking at the serious expressions on your faces when you and Masao and the others were talking, are the bodies in the ice coffin really so important?"
"Yes!" Hinata Ichiro said affirmatively, "Tsunade-sensei, to put it seriously, the remains in the ice coffin involve the rise and fall of our Hyuga clan!"
"Ichiro, in that case, do you need my help?" Hearing this, Tsunade asked, "If you need it, I can use my influence in the Konoha Front Command now to have the command center send additional personnel to escort the ice coffin back to Konoha!"
"Of course, if you're still worried, I can even personally join the team that escorts the ice coffin back to Konoha!"
Hearing Tsunade say this, Hinata Ichiro's heart was a little moved.
"Thank you, Tsunade-sensei!" Hinata Ichiro thanked Tsunade before he spoke, "It's just that although the body in the ice coffin is important, it's not worth Tsunade-sensei's enthusiasm!"
"Ichiro, why is that?" Tsunade asked, "Didn't you just say that the remains in this ice coffin are related to the rise and fall of the Hyuga clan?"
"Tsunade-sensei, you should know that I know the 'Secret Technique'!" Hinata Ichiro explained, "If I really want to quietly transport the body in the ice coffin back to Konoha safely, then I won't deliberately return to the camp of the Konoha Front Command with the body in the ice coffin, wouldn't it be safe to directly use the 'Secret Technique?Instantaneous Technique' to teleport back to Konoha with the body in the ice coffin?"
"Ichiro, if you don't say that, then I really forgot about the fact that you are carrying the 'Secret Technique?' Instantaneous Technique!" Tsunade suddenly asked, "Ichiro, then why don't you just use the 'Secret Technique?Instantaneous Technique' to teleport back to Konoha with the remains in the ice coffin?"
"Tsunade-sensei, this is because I want to see what kind of cow ghosts and snake gods will jump out on the way back to Konoha from the ice coffin!" Hinata Ichiro said coldly.
Waiting for Hinata Ichiro to finish speaking, Tsunade looked at Hinata Ichiro in a daze, and it was the first time she felt the bone-chilling chill in Hinata Ichiro's words.
"Ichiro, can you elaborate a little more?" asked Tsunade.
"Tsunade-sensei, as I said just now, the body in the ice coffin is a perceptual ninja from the Fog Hidden Ninja Village in the Land of Water!" Hinata Ichiro said, "But what I didn't reveal before is that this ninja of the Fog Hidden Ninja Village that I killed was transplanted with a white eye of our Hyuga clan!"
"What!?" Hearing this, Tsunade suddenly looked at Hinata Ichiro with a shocked face, and his mouth unconsciously sounded, "Ichiro, what did you say?"
"Tsunade-sensei, this ninja of the Fog Hidden Ninja Village that I killed has transplanted a white eye of the Hyuga clan!" Hinata Ichiro repeated what he had just said.
"Ichiro, how is this possible?" said Tsunade, still in disbelief.
"Tsunade-sensei, but the facts are right in front of us, so we can't believe it!" Hinata Ichiro spread his hands, and then said, "It is precisely because this ninja from the Fog Hidden Ninja Village transplanted a white eye of the Hyuga clan that I will kill him!"
"Ichiro, isn't the white eye of the Hyuga clan protected by the curse mark of the caged bird?" Tsunade asked suspiciously, "Could it be someone from the Hyuga clan who has lost their white eye?"
"Tsunade-sensei, whether this white eye lost in the hands of a foreigner belongs to the Hyuga clan or the Hyuga clan, I don't know now!" Hinata Ichiro shook his head and replied, "If this white eye lost in the hands of a foreigner belongs to the Hyuga clan, then the matter has not reached the worst level, but if this white eye lost in the hands of a foreigner belongs to the Hyuga clan, then the matter will be troublesome!"
"Because if this white eye lost in the hands of a foreigner belongs to the Hyuga clan, it means that the caged bird curse mark that the Hyuga clan is proud of has lost its effect!"
"Not bad!" Tsunade nodded and said approvingly, "Ichiro, although I don't agree with the Hyuga clan's approach, no one can deny the protective effect of the caged bird curse mark on the white eyes of the Hyuga clan!"
"After all, the white eyes of the Hyuga clan have not been outflowed for thousands of years, and most of this is due to the curse mark of the caged bird!"
"Yes!" Hinata Ichiro said, "Tsunade-sensei, I've also cast the Caged Bird Spell Mark, so I have first-hand experience of the power of the Caged Bird Spell Mark!"
"Ichiro, do you think on the way back to Konoha on the way to escort the remains of the ice coffin back to Konoha this time, which ghosts will jump out and rob the remains of the ice coffin?" asked Tsunade.
"The people of the Fog Hidden Ninja Village, some people in Konoha, and some people from the Hyuga clan's family!" Hinata Ichiro thought for a moment, then replied, "Tsunade-sensei, it is possible that all three of the above people will jump out on the way back to Konoha this time to escort the remains of the ice coffin back to Konoha this time!"
