Chapter 333 Large Transactions
The Hyuga branch family.
The Hyuga clan members who were rescued by Fugaku Uchiha in the Forest of Death have all returned to their clan.
I'm here to report this to Hinata Sōta.
They've been monitoring the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki for years, though they've been mostly slacking off.
However, we have considered the possibility of things happening.
It's clear that the Third Hokage and the Uchiha clan have officially broken off all pretense of civility.
"Have the Third Hokage's people already secured the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki?" Sota asked the crucial question.
The Hyuga clan members looked at each other, then shook their heads:
"We've been using the Byakugan the whole way and have found Naruto. He wasn't captured."
"But the amount of Nine-Tails chakra in Naruto's body is very small, and we don't know the specifics."
"But near the tower, there are corpses everywhere. Those corpses should all be the Third Hokage's men, left behind to stop Uchiha Chiyo."
"Tap...tap...tap..."
Sota's fingers tapped incessantly on the table, but his mind was racing.
The fact that Fugaku came specifically to rescue the Hyuga clan indicates that the Uchiha clan knew or was aware of the Third Hokage's actions.
But with so many lives lost in the tower, did the Third Hokage fail?
Naruto's current situation is unclear, and it's really unknown who has the Nine-Tails in their hands.
But perhaps this is an opportunity!?
Sota gazed intently at the four members of the Hyuga branch family:
"How is the Legacy Project progressing?"
These four clansmen are Yuto, Moto, the three messengers left behind by Shuji, and one of Sota's people.
Since it was inconvenient for Sota and the other three to contact each other at any time, they relied on the branch family members to pass on messages.
The so-called Legacy Project is a supplement to the New Sprout Project.
The legacy plan addresses the question of how to preserve the family line should the new shoots fail and the family split up.
Project New Sprout is an absolute death mission; even if it succeeds, at least half of the people involved will die.
If it fails, none of the participants in the New Sprout Project will be able to escape.
Under these circumstances, Xiu Zhi proposed a legacy project.
The so-called "legitimate offspring plan" is quite simple: during missions, one must find women and leave behind children.
In the ninja world, ordinary people's lives are worthless, and if members of a branch family want to find someone, there's always a way.
However, children born to ordinary parents, despite having the Hyuga bloodline, have a very low chance of awakening the Byakugan.
Moreover, once such Hyuga clan members are found, they will be brought back to the Hyuga clan, and there will be joint liability involved.
However, when it comes to a life-or-death situation, the people who split up don't care about such things.
Hinata is now 10 years old, and in a few more years, another branch of the main family will emerge.
Furthermore, as the daughter of the main branch of the Uchiha clan, Hinata's marriage to either Naruto or the Uchiha clan would greatly enhance the clan's power.
This would be a devastating blow to any family that splits up.
Once Sota's strength was sufficient, he set a time.
The New Sprouts Project must be launched within three years.
This year is only the first year.
The three of them did a quick calculation and then added up the numbers: "Grandpa Cang, about 60% is complete."
There were a total of 84 people participating in the New Sprout Project; the other members of the branch family were unaware of it.
In other words, 50 of these 84 people have already had children outside the family.
A plan is a plan, and change is change.
The more offspring you leave behind outside, the easier it is to be discovered.
Launching the New Sprouts Project now is no longer too hasty.
Because the Hyuga clan doesn't have that many opportunities.
It can easily bring the main family and branch families together.
"I'm going to the Uchiha clan. When I get back, I'll announce the convening of a clan-wide meeting. You guys inform Hayato, Moto, and Shuto to prepare for the start of the New Sprout Project!"
"Yes!" The eyes of the branch family members burned with fire. No one knew how many people would survive after this.
……
The Forest of Death is not located inside the walls of Konoha Village, but rather in the forest outside the walls.
After Sarutobi Seishu succeeded, he and Zenku immediately left the vicinity of Konoha Village before the Uchiha clan could launch a large-scale manhunt.
Arriving in the wilderness, at the place where we meet Kakuzu.
Because the Third Hokage hasn't paid yet.
At this time, Shi Zhou's personal freedom was restricted by Chan Kong.
After learning that Shi Zhou had succeeded, the Third Hokage immediately sent someone to pick him up.
There are many reasons why he didn't go there, the biggest one being that the Uchiha clan didn't react immediately.
It was as if they were waiting and accumulating strength.
When Shi Zhou and his companions arrived, Kakuzu had already been waiting for a long time.
After all, this mission is highly profitable and pays a lot of money, but it is also very dangerous.
However, no matter how dangerous it is, Kakuzu still has to do it, because this one vote is worth ten years of his work.
Upon seeing Zenku and the others, Kakuzu immediately came to greet them.
He looked at Zenkong with hopeful eyes, as if on a pilgrimage:
"Master Chankong, how is he?"
Zen Kong remained calm and composed: "It's already finished."
Although each horn has five hearts, this time the amount is too large, and all five hearts are beating faster!
"Alright, now we just have to wait for the Third Hokage to bring the money over." Kakuzu forcefully suppressed his excitement.
I kept telling myself that the money wasn't in my hands yet! The money wasn't in my hands yet!
However, Cai Jin is captivating, as can be heard from Kakuzu's slightly distorted voice.
Kakuzu was completely unable to calm down.
Sarutobi Seishu and the others knew that the Third Hokage had sent a large number of people to intercept Senyou.
However, the specific number of casualties is unknown.
They are now waiting for the Third Hokage's men to arrive.
They weren't too far from Konoha, and before long, Jiraiya arrived with a huge scroll.
When Jiraiya arrived, he exchanged a subtle glance with Sarutobi Sekishu.
Sarutobi Seishu closed his eyes and shook his head slightly, indicating that he would not agree.
With so much money, what's the biggest threat? It's being double-crossed, of course.
Sarutobi Sekishu's closed eyes and head-shaking gesture meant that Zenku had easily stopped Uchiha Senyou.
Jiraiya might not be a match for Zenku.
Seeing this, Jiraiya put his mind at ease.
As a clone of Qianyao, Zenkong had naturally taken this outcome into consideration.
He also has backup plans.
However, seeing that Jiraiya was not planning to take action, Zenku decided to continue with the first plan.
"Master Chankong, you've worked hard. This is the agreed-upon reward."
Jiraiya untied the huge scroll he was carrying.
Zenkū simply chanted the Buddha's name: "A monk does not handle gold or silver, so you may go, benefactor Kakuzu."
Kakuzu had been waiting for these words, and his eyes lit up as he went over and took the scroll.
When the scroll is opened, there is a huge character for "wealth" on it.
This is a special storage scroll with a large storage space, but it can only hold money.
Kakuzu immediately broke the seal, and a large stack of banknotes, as big as a small mountain, appeared in front of him.
At this critical and dangerous moment, even though Kakuzu likes to count money, there's no time for him to count it slowly.
With a wave of his hand, a massive amount of Earthly Grief Demons transformed into countless threads that flew out and instantly covered the entire Money Mountain.
Kakuzu is using his secret technique to help count the money.
