Fugaku had a headache. He didn't expect that Kirigakure would fool the Hyuga clan into this by just using a little trick.

But thinking about it differently, Fugaku felt that this might not be a bad thing. After all, it was the troops belonging to the Hyuga clan that suffered heavy losses.

Coupled with the fact that he led the Uchiha clan and his subordinate troops to victory, this obvious contrast is enough to illustrate the role of Uchiha.

Che seemed to understand Fugaku's thoughts on the side, and thought to himself: "It seems that Fugaku still doesn't understand the high-level officials of Konoha. Uchiha's meritorious service will only make them more afraid..."

Che was also the head of the family in his previous life, and coupled with the onlooker Qing, it can be seen that the conflict between the top management of Konoha and Uchiha cannot be made up by simply performing a few meritorious deeds.

It was naturally impossible for Fugaku to express his inner thoughts, at least not too obviously.

"Condolences."

Fugaku sighed slightly, walked to Hinata Deyang and said.

Only then did Fugaku notice that Hinata Yuesheng's right eye socket was empty, and the entire eyeball had been gouged out.

Hyuga Deyang ignored Fugaku and stood up and walked straight to several Hyuga branch ninjas.

"Is this how you protect Yuesheng?!"

Hinata Deyang scolded him sternly, and then formed a seal.

After the separated families begged for mercy to no avail, they immediately fell to the ground and wailed in pain.

Che clicked his tongue twice, crossed his arms, and watched everything quietly.

Fugaku and Che looked at each other. Although he couldn't stand this kind of behavior, after all, it was a family matter of the Hyuga clan, and Fugaku couldn't care about it even if he didn't want to.

The Byakugan of the Hyuga clan is indeed coveted. Compared to the Sharingan, which requires the power of Uchiha blood to exert its true abilities, the threshold for using the Byakugan is much lower.

Basically, after transplanting it and learning the control techniques, you can master it perfectly, almost no different from ordinary Hyuga clan members.

Although the clan system of the Hyuga clan is pedantic, in a sense it is a last resort.

Not only does the branch have to protect the clan, but it will also be engraved with the Caged Bird Curse.

The Caged Bird Curse Seal will limit the vision of the Byakugan of the branch family, allowing the clan family to control and destroy the brain nerves of the branch family. It will also automatically destroy the Byakugan when the Byakugan is removed or dies.

The Caged Bird curse mark will only disappear after death.

In this way, not only will the members of the branch family not be deprived of their Byakugan, but they can also protect the clan's Byakugan.

However, even if the clan system was established, the clan's eyes were still lost this time.

Hinata Deyang punished the branch family members who were responsible for protecting Hinata Yuesheng, and then came to Fugaku and said with a stern face: "Now... you Uchiha should be satisfied..."

"I will take the blame and resign, and the remaining troops will be left to you."

Hinata Deyang, who lost his son in old age, was disheartened.

Fugaku was happy in his heart, but his face was still tense and he said with a straight face.

"Hey, why bother? If we didn't go to the battlefield, this kind of tragedy wouldn't happen."

"In that case, I will have to reluctantly take over the remaining troops."

There are a total of 5,000 troops on the southeastern defense line.

After Jiraiya was transferred, two thousand of them were commanded by Namikaze Minato on the southern front, and one thousand were dispersed into small teams to form the rear defense line. On the eastern front, the Hyuga clan commanded one thousand people, and the Uchiha clan commanded one thousand people.

Now after two battles, Hinata still has 600 people under his command, and Uchiha still has nearly 800 people under his command.

If these two forces were under the command of Fugaku, the number of troops under his command would be hundreds more than before the war.

So Fugaku was certainly happy deep down.

Hyuga Deyo first disposed of his son's body. There was no coffin on the battlefield, so stretchers and white cloths could only be used as a temporary morgue.

Then, Hyuga Tokuyo wrote a letter and sent it to Konoha, and returned to Konoha with his son's body.

Fugaku was busy between various positions, mobilizing troops and consolidating defenses.

But what was waiting was a transfer order.

"Hyuga Tokuyo resigned, and Nara Shikaku was transferred to the southeast defense line and took over the former Hyuga Tokuyo's troops."

"Damn it!" Fugaku got angry in a rare moment.

He was not scolding Nara Shikaku, who had taken away half of his command, but the top management of Konoha who made this decision.

The top management of Konoha seemed to be afraid that Uchiha would gain any more power, so they did not hesitate to transfer Nara Shikaku from the western front where the strength was tight to divide the military power controlled by Uchiha.

"One day... I will take back everything that belongs to Uchiha..."

Fugaku also planted a seed in his heart, and Che saw it.

"Shikaku-sensei is coming?"

Che asked knowingly. Che had already read this transfer letter in advance.

Fugaku recovered from the bitter and resentful expression just now, raised his head and squeezed out a forced smile: "Yes, I will take over the previous position of Hinata Deyang."

"In that case, we may be able to join forces with Teacher Shikaku to take some counterattacks," Che said.

Fugaku also found some comfort in his heart, "At least he is a smart person."

At the same time, in the Kirigakure stronghold near the coast of the Land of Fire.

A man lies on the operating table with his eyes closed.

This person is Qing, the person in charge of the stronghold.

"Master Qing, the operation has been successful."

The medical ninja on the side woke up Ao.

Qing slowly opened his eyes, and his right eye suddenly turned white.

Qing stood up slowly. The difference in vision between far and near, coupled with the anesthesia that had not yet fully recovered, made Qing almost fall. Fortunately, the medical ninja next to him gave him a hand.

Qing closed his right eye, which had not yet adapted, and supported the operating table and said, "Go, find me a pair of eye masks first."

Only when the medical ninja brought a pair of eye patches and Qing put it on his right eye did he feel more comfortable.

Ao walked out of the operating room, and many ninjas were waiting outside the door to congratulate Ao on the success of the operation.

Ao is now in the limelight in Kirigakure Village. He led a thousand troops in the stronghold to launch a surprise attack, severely damaging Konoha's defense line and winning a white eye for the village.

Mizukage waved his hand and gave Ao his Byakugan.

Therefore, there are many people who want to curry favor with Qing.

In the distance, a girl in blue with long reddish-brown hair joined in the fun and stood on tiptoe to look, "This is the Byakugan. It's all covered. You can't see anything. It's boring."

The girl in blue is naturally Mei Terumi.

Terumi Mei muttered a few words and left, and she could see the liveliness of Byakugan. As for flattering Qing, Terumi Mei didn't have this option at all.

"Hinata was hit hard, but Uchiha defeated us. Sure enough, Uchiha is stronger."

"Uchiha..."

"That stinky Uchiha Che should be here too..."

The handsome boy suddenly appeared in Terumi Mei's mind. Ever since the two met in the Land of Waves, Terumi Mei could never forget this figure again.

"Hmph! What do I think he did? He went on patrol."

Terumi Mei then left the stronghold and patrolled according to the mission requirements.
