Chapter 239 – A New Hyuga Era
The faces of the remaining elders of the Hyuga Clan were pale and bloodless.
They understood very clearly that before the might of the Fifth Hokage of Konohagakure, Uchiha Yuta, there was no longer any room for resistance.
The system of Main Family and Branch Family—which had ruled their clan for centuries—had been abolished.
As for objecting?
Don't be ridiculous.
Had they not just witnessed the fate of the Great Elder?
Cut down in an instant, killed from afar without even the chance to resist.
Who among them dared to invite the same end?
---
> "Haa…!"
"So it's settled then…"
"The Fifth Hokage—Lord Uchiha Yuta—is truly the savior of our Branch Families!"
"More than a savior… he is like a parent reborn for us who were once oppressed!"
One by one, Branch Family elders began voicing their relief, their joy overflowing.
They all saw it with their own eyes:
The Caged Bird Seals were gone.
Even the clan head, Hiashi Hyuga, had voiced no opposition.
This was a new era.
---
> "Lord Fifth Hokage, we have no objections!"
"The Main–Branch system should have been abolished long ago!"
"We fully support you, Hokage-sama! That system was a chain holding back our clan's growth!"
One after another, even the Main Family elders, pale as they were, began changing their tone.
Fear had washed away their pride.
Survival meant obedience.
---
Across the room, Neji Hyuga stood quietly, eyebrows twitching as he watched.
> Tch… I've seen people who bend with the wind, but this…
This level of shamelessness is a whole new art form…
If the elders could hear his thoughts, they would spit blood in frustration.
> Easy for you to talk, boy—standing tall with the Fifth Hokage backing you!
---
Hiashi Hyuga gave a small, cold snort, his expression unreadable.
> "They refuse a toast, but once they've tasted the blade, they beg for a drink. Hmph."
The Great Elder's body, lying lifeless on the council floor, served as a bloody warning.
Now, the rest understood. Now, they obeyed.
---
Hiashi Hyuga straightened and spoke with authority:
> "Very well. Let us address the details."
"From this day forth, by decree of the Hyuga Clan and in accordance with the will of the Fifth Hokage—there shall be no more Main Family and Branch Family. All members are one. The Caged Bird Seal is abolished, and every member shall stand equal."
---
> "Good!!"
"A wise decision!"
"Agreed—absolutely agreed!"
Cries of agreement echoed through the council chamber, though most knew it was fear, not virtue, that guided their voices.
The body of the Great Elder lay ignored now, like a discarded relic of the old world.
---
In a Hyuga courtyard…
Bang! Bang!
Two young figures moved gracefully across the training grounds.
Hinata Hyuga and Hanabi Hyuga were sparring, their Gentle Fist styles clashing softly yet sharply, threads of chakra striking and dissipating in the air.
From a shaded seat nearby, Uchiha Yuta, the Fifth Hokage, sat cross‑legged, sipping hot tea as he watched.
> "If only they'd listened from the start…"
"But no… I had to kill before they understood why the flowers bloom red."
He shook his head slightly, watching the two prodigies train, yet his senses never left the council hall.
When he felt rebellion, he struck.
When resistance arose, he crushed it.
And now—finally—the Hyuga Clan submitted, their old chains broken.
---
That same afternoon…
While the shinobi world's attention remained on the looming Allied Shinobi Forces, a proclamation from the Hyuga Clan rippled through Konohagakure—and then far beyond.
> Official Statement of the Hyuga Clan:
Under the guidance of the Fifth Hokage, Uchiha Yuta, the heiresses of the Hyuga Clan, Hinata Hyuga and Hanabi Hyuga, have awakened the legendary Tenseigan and inherited the Sage Body.
From this day forward, the Hyuga Clan abolishes the Main Family and Branch Family system.
The Caged Bird Seal is forever abolished.
---
Buzz!!
The moment the news broke, Konoha erupted in shock.
When the news spread beyond, the ninja world itself trembled.
---
> At such a critical time… the Fifth Hokage awakened the Tenseigan in two Hyuga heiresses?
He gave them the power of the Sage Body?
And abolished the Hyuga Clan's centuries-old hierarchy?
The implications were staggering.
For years, countless forces had coveted the Byakugan, only to be deterred by the protection of the Caged Bird Seal.
Now, with that seal gone, temptation stirred in the shadows.
Yet…
When they thought of the man who had made this decree, the strongest Hokage in history—Uchiha Yuta—their ambitions turned to ice.
---
> Forget it…
After the Allied Forces fall, the Fifth Hokage will unite the shinobi world. Who would dare touch the Hyuga now?
To try would be to court death itself.
---
And so, under the crimson sunset over Konohagakure, a new chapter of the Hyuga Clan began—
freed from chains, united under one name, and protected by the overwhelming shadow of Uchiha Yuta, the Eternal God of the Hidden Leaf.
---
To be continued…
