Naruto: The Primal Hyuga Pierces the Shinobi World

During dinner, Hiashi also returned home and ate with Shinichi. During the meal, Hiashi asked Shinichi about the gold exchange.

With no outsiders present, Shinichi naturally shared all the relevant information about Nichishi without reservation.

It was only then that Neji and Hinata learned that their brother, who had been gone for such a short time, had actually "strolled" around outside the village and returned, and had even killed a rogue Sand Ninja.

Based on Shinichi's description of the enemy's intelligence, even Hinata and Neji, who weren't particularly experienced as ninjas, sensed the enemy's strength. The fact that Sasori, who died at his brother's hands, could create human puppets, and that these puppets were actually the Third Kazekage, sent chills down Neji and Hinata's spines just thinking about it.

However, even those two incredibly powerful and unpredictable individuals, far surpassing Jonin in skill, were defeated by their own brother. This efficiency and strength left a deep impression on Hinata and Neji.

"Sasori of the Red Sand..."

"A puppet that controls the Third Kazekage..."

"According to the information you provided, the Sand Village's decision to launch the Fourth Shinobi World War under the pretext of the Third Kazekage's disappearance is truly foolish."

"I never imagined that the person who killed the Kazekage was their own rogue ninja... It really is..."

Knowing what kind of ninja had died at Shinichi's hands, even Hiashi couldn't help but sigh. He was impressed by his son's strength, but also felt sorry for the Sand Village ninjas.

He risked his life for revenge, only to end up as a clown; it's hard not to feel a sense of pity.

"Shinichi, how do you plan to handle this matter?"

Do you need the clan to help you spread the word on a large scale?

While feeling sorry for the Sand Shinobi, Hiashi also realized that this was a rare opportunity to make a name for himself, but he didn't know what his son thought, hence the question.

Shinichi Hyuga killed a rogue Sand Ninja who was capable of assassinating the Third Kazekage, the very person who was the mastermind behind the Third Shinobi World War. If this information could be spread, Shinichi Hyuga's reputation would undoubtedly soar even higher.

In the years since Shinichi left the clan, the Uchiha clan has shone brightly, their fame once surpassing that of the former Uchiha Shisui and Hyuga Shinichi.

Hiashi was never a Buddhist-like person. Although his clan had a good relationship with the Uchiha, he naturally felt uncomfortable because his reputation was overshadowed by the Uchiha.

It's not that my son is incapable; whether it was helping the family kill the Kirigakure ninja in his early years and reclaiming the Byakugan, or now killing the Sand Ninja who successfully assassinated the Kazekage.

All these achievements demonstrate Shinichi's strength, but the fact that this information cannot be translated into fame is really making Hiashi feel uncomfortable. This feeling of being in the dark makes him very uneasy.

"Have my family help me spread the word?"

"Hmm... I think I'll pass, this is just too much."

Reputation... it sounds like a good thing, but how much benefit does it really bring to ninjas who walk the line between life and death?

Hard to say.

Besides making your enemies more wary of you, what other remarkable effect can it have?

For example, Kakashi, "Sharingan Kakashi," "Copy Ninja Kakashi," sounds like a very famous name at first glance, but those who know his name also know more or less about his background.

One-sided information transparency is not a good thing for ninjas.

Although Shinichi didn't know how much information about himself would be leaked by Kakuzu, at least this kind of information would only circulate within a small circle of Akatsuki.

The enemies Shinichi Hyuga will face in the future are not necessarily all from Akatsuki; the fewer people who know his information, the better.

There's no need to treat your achievements as a "label" to wear on your forehead every day. What you really care about is practical benefits. Fame and such things are of no use.

He's destined to become the head of the Hyuga clan. What title could be more prestigious than "Head of the Hyuga Clan"?

“Father, I have no interest in empty fame. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have tried so hard to erase the traces of the battlefield.”

"We can keep this to ourselves. I will inform the Hokage of the relevant information first thing tomorrow morning."

"Make him pay more attention to this organization, and then we'll call it a day."

“I have a feeling that this organization will cause trouble again, and it will be big trouble. It would be better for the village to be on guard.”

Some information can be revealed, but some cannot, otherwise it would be more complicated to explain.

Shinichi has now made direct contact with Akatsuki, so he can take this opportunity to reveal some information about Akatsuki. Hopefully, Minato will take this seriously as soon as possible. If it can reduce the village's losses, it would be a good thing.

Silent all night.

The next morning, as an apology, Shinichi personally took Hinata to the Ninja Academy early in the morning. It's worth mentioning that Hinata had been attending school for several years, and Shinichi had only gone once, when she started school, and had never been to the Ninja Academy since.

Sending Hinata to school was a rare occurrence for Shinichi; usually, it was Hanako or the clan's maids who did it.

Hinata seemed to have calmed down and stopped arguing with Shinichi. After breakfast, she let Shinichi hold her hand and walk towards the Ninja Academy.

Shinichi was unaware that Hinata was a prominent figure at the Ninja Academy, dominating her classmates and even kicking the sixth-year students' leader.

The only downside to this older sister is that while other children her age can go to and from school on their own, she still has someone picking her up and dropping her off.

Many children who harbor hostility towards Hinata, the leader of the group, often use this as a way to subtly mock her. Although many have learned their lesson from this, there are still quite a few children who refuse to change their ways.

As they approached the Ninja Academy, Hinata showed some resistance. Seeing that they were still two streets away from the school, Hinata stopped and said to Shinichi beside her, "Brother, you go back. I can walk the rest of the way by myself."

However, since he was thinking of going to the Hokage Building to report to the Fourth Hokage on the way, upon hearing Hinata's words, he naturally shook his head slightly and said:

"Since we're already here, I'll take you to school. I happen to have something to do with the Fourth Hokage anyway, so it's on my way."

Shinichi's words left Hinata with no excuse to refuse. Her face fell, and she walked toward the Ninja Academy with her head down.

Shinichi didn't understand, nor did he take it to heart.

Upon arriving at the entrance of the Ninja Academy, the pair of adults and children attracted some attention. Some of their classmates greeted Hinata with smiles, while their eyes kept glancing at Shinichi.

Shinichi is handsome, wearing loose training clothes and not wearing a Konoha ninja headband. Shinichi's faint air of superiority makes it clear that he is not a guard ninja of the Hyuga clan.

The students were very curious about the unfamiliar faces around Hinata.

Standing at the school gate, watching Hinata walk into the school, Shinichi Hyuga felt as if he had returned to before he transmigrated. This kind of peaceful life seemed to be what he deeply longed for in his heart.

Iruka greeted the students entering the school with a smile at the school gate. Noticing Hinata and Shinichi Hyuga, who had brought Hinata to school, the kind teacher gently called out to Hinata and asked:

"Hinata, didn't your mother bring you here today?"

"Who is that young man? I don't think I've seen him before."

Iruka not only cares about the students' academic progress, but also about their family situations.

Hearing Iruka's question, Hinata slowly turned around, glanced at Shinichi who was smiling and watching her leave not far away, and a smile involuntarily appeared on her small face:

“My brother, my own brother, Shinichi Hyuga, left the village on a secret mission and has only recently returned to the clan.”

Hinata's answer surprised Iruka somewhat. Although he was a dedicated teacher who cared not only about his students' studies but also about their family situations.

However, the Hyuga clan is ultimately different. Even he cannot actively investigate. Although he is a teacher, Iruka is only a Chunin. In a place like a ninja village with a strict hierarchy, he is not qualified to investigate the situation of the Hyuga clan.

Normally, it was Hanako and the Hyuga family's maids who took Hinata to school. Iruka had only heard by chance that the Hyuga main family's younger generation had indeed produced a super genius. Thinking about it carefully, the rumored genius of the Hyuga family must be Hinata's older brother.

Looking sideways at Hyuga Shinichi not far away, Iruka's eyes now held a hint of curiosity.

Shinichi Hyuga, with his keen intuition, naturally noticed Iruka's gaze. He didn't mind, but instead smiled and nodded slightly to Iruka, as a polite greeting.

Seeing this, Iruka bowed slightly in return. The genius of the Hyuga main family... What surprised Iruka was that Shinichi seemed to be a very kind person, and he didn't have the arrogance of a scion of a large family.

Iruka actually felt that kind of aura of a noble scion more deeply in the younger Uchiha Sasuke.

After watching Hinata enter the school, Shinichi Hyuga did not linger at the ninja academy. After standing there for a while, he also strolled away and walked towards the Hokage Building.

Having time to stroll around the village was a rare experience for Shinichi. Gazing at the Shadow Rock in the distance, Shinichi Hyuga unconsciously slowed his pace, savoring the vibrant atmosphere of Konoha Village in the morning.

The closer you get to the Hokage Building, the higher the proportion of ninjas among the passersby becomes. Although Shinichi Hyuga is low-key, his reputation is quite well-known among the upper-middle-class ninjas.

As he approached the Hokage Building, he attracted more and more attention.

The Akimichi clan ninjas guarding the gate had noticed Shinichi Hyuga's unsteady gait early on, and hurriedly approached him before he even got close:

"Shinichi! Are you here to see the Hokage?"

Although it was their first meeting, the guard ninja recognized Hyuga Shinichi at a glance and tried to get on his good side with him.

Although Shinichi Hyuga received Minato Namikaze's recommendation and officially became a Jonin after returning to the village, the Jonin rank was not the reason why the Akimichi clan ninjas addressed him as "sir".

Although Shinichi did not hold a position in Konoha's management system, as the heir of the Hyuga main family, it was always appropriate for others to address him as "sir".

Although the Akimichi clan is also a ninja clan, it is far inferior to a behemoth like the Hyuga clan. Hyuga Shinichi is indeed a "big shot" to him.

"Um, I have something to discuss with the Fourth Hokage. Is it convenient for him?"

Access control guards have many jobs, but security is just the most basic one; relaying messages on behalf of others is their daily work.

Not just anyone can meet the Hokage, but Shinichi Hyuga's high social standing gives people the illusion that anyone can meet the Hokage.

The ordinary ninjas in the village probably wouldn't see the Hokage more than a few times in their entire lives.

Upon hearing Shinichi's words, the Akimichi ninja did not hesitate. He bowed and hurriedly ran upstairs. Soon after, he returned and led Shinichi toward the Hokage's office.

Compared to my previous visits to the Hokage Building, the guards here were noticeably more disciplined. Although Minato was kind-hearted, his management skills were far superior to the Third Hokage's, and his subordinates were well-trained and disciplined, not at all lax.

Knocking on the office door, Shinichi Minato, who was sitting behind his desk, pushed the door open and entered, a smile immediately appearing on his face:

"Shinichi, you've come."

"I was thinking that if you didn't come, I would find some time to come and see you."

"How are you? Are you injured?"

Minato Namikaze's words were pointed. He knew about Shinichi Hyuga's use of the Flying Thunder God Technique to leave the village. He sensed the chakra fluctuations from Shinichi's use of the Mini Tailed Beast Ball to kill White Zetsu, which is why he asked this question.

"No, although the enemy is powerful, my abilities are somewhat able to restrain them."
