Chapter 673
Secondly.
Uchiha Jin is the leader of his clan, and he has been joined by so many ninja clans; do you really think those people are fools?
Do you think you can just rely on a bit of wartime camaraderie, without wanting to pay anything, and expect to reap benefits from his hands?
That is simply delusional!
More importantly.
Even if we take a step back, even if your scheme could succeed, would the Hyuga clan still have any face left in the future?
You elders of the Main House don't have to deal with the village, but he, as the Clan Head, certainly does!
He needs to frequently enter and exit social circles and occasionally meet with other ninja clans.
If this matter were to get out, how could he ever show his face again?
But, there is no choice.
He truly does not dare to provoke these Main House elders too much, because the rules of the Hyuga clan are weighing him down.
If these idiots were of one mind, they could truly have him removed as Clan Head.
Sigh!
With a helpless sigh, he spoke immediately.
"No, absolutely not!"
"Don't even think about this idea; I, Hyuga Hiashi, cannot afford to lose that much face."
"If you are willing, then go find Uchiha Jin and talk to him yourselves."
"I will not get involved, and don't come asking me."
Hyuga Hiashi did not hesitate.
He didn't even think about it before directly rejecting this point.
Good grief!
You want me to step forward and lose face, while you sit in the back and split the benefits?
Keep dreaming!
He might not be able to stand these disgusting acts by the Main House, and he truly lacks the courage to stop them from happening.
For the sake of the Hyuga clan's stability, he has managed to turn a blind eye.
But, at the same time.
Expecting him to do things for these Main House members is something they shouldn't even dream of.
Hyuga Yōtai: "..."
Other Main House elders: "..."
They were completely stunned.
Clearly.
They never expected Hyuga Hiashi to be so disrespectful.
He rejected them directly without even considering it?
Thinking of this, they were extremely furious.
This, damn it.
Isn't this being too disrespectful?
Hyuga Yōtai's eyes were gloomy as he couldn't help but speak: "Clan Head, you are going a bit too far; we are all doing this for the clan!"
"Clan Head, you are going too far!" someone said.
"As the Clan Head, how can you not consider the clan?"
"Such a simple matter could bring benefits to the clan."
"..."
Everyone questioned him one after another.
As elders of the Hyuga Main House, their power is indeed very great.
Even against Hyuga Hiashi, they dared to stand their ground.
However, regarding this.
Hyuga Hiashi's expression remained calm, and upon hearing this, he only spoke indifferently.
"There is no need for nonsense."
"I have already spoken on this matter; I don't care how you act, but I, Hyuga Hiashi, am not willing to lose that face."
"If you really can't stand it, then just remove me as Clan Head."
"To tell you the truth, I have long since grown tired of this job!"
"I have long found your daily evil deeds distasteful, but I have turned a blind eye due to clan rules."
"So, don't go too far!"
"And I am also very curious: without me, Hyuga Hiashi, how much ability do you bunch have?"
Yes.
He had long grown tired of being the Hyuga Clan Head.
Seeing this group of foolish Main House elders made him feel sick to his stomach.
Afraid?
That doesn't exist!
He understood this bunch of idiots within the clan all too well.
Don't look at how they are whining now; they actually have a clear understanding of their own abilities.
The Hyuga clan is currently maintained almost entirely by him leading the Branch House to fight and provide for this group of useless trash.
If he were to step down and they were to take the stage.
They would be finished within a few days!
The facts are indeed so.
Following Hyuga Hiashi's words, everyone immediately shut their mouths.
This group of Hyuga Main House members, though furious in their hearts, still dared not speak.
Clearly.
They had already realized it.
Ever since the Hyuga clan was provoked last time and seven or eight Main House members were killed, Hyuga Hiashi's personality had begun to harden.
But, there was no other way!
Although they were foolish, they still had some self-awareness.
They lacked the ability.
They could eat, drink, play, bully, and humiliate the Branch House, sure!
But once they stepped outside the Hyuga clan's territory, no one among the village's other ninja clans or the Konoha high-ups would look up to them.
They could not shoulder the position of Clan Head!
Replace the Clan Head?
Simple!
But the problem is, if you get rid of Hyuga Hiashi, who would continue to take the position?
No one!
Because of the unique Caged Bird system, the Main House had long since been spoiled and ruined.
Hyuga Hiashi was the only one who could be presented to the world!
Actually, it was because of this that Hyuga Hiashi was able to easily take the position of Clan Head in the first place.
Silence!
The entire great hall was deathly silent.
After a long while.
Hyuga Hiashi spoke coldly.
"It seems you all still have some sense."
"Then I will say one last thing: regarding your filthy business within the clan, I can continue to turn a blind eye."
"As long as you don't go too far, I won't bother getting entangled with you."
