Chapter 693 The Current Situation of Hyuga
Chapter 693 The Current Situation of Hyuga
Not knowing Karin's location, Chiyo activated Kagura's Mind's Eye and instantly pinpointed Karin's location.
Karin is still at the Barrier Department, and he plans to go pick her up and take her to Orochimaru's laboratory.
However, as he approached the boundary of the barrier, a familiar voice rang in his mind.
"Fifth Hokage, is that you?"
It's Shikaku's voice.
Because Qianyao disguised himself, the outside world could not perceive or confirm his appearance.
Shikaku had received advance notice, which allowed him to recognize the person whose chakra was blurred.
"Oh, Shikaku, I won't be appearing in public for the time being, so you don't need to call me Hokage."
"Yes, Lord Qianyao."
Shikaku had no objections; after all, the Fourth Hokage and Senyo were on the same side, so it didn't matter who became Hokage.
"I heard from Karin that they're already setting up a wireless communication barrier?"
Lu Jiu immediately responded, "The wireless communication barrier is still under testing. The larger the network area, the more likely there will be errors or omissions."
"It will take some time before it is officially implemented."
Qianyao is also quite concerned about this matter, because after the construction is completed.
This would allow him to significantly accelerate the unification of the ninja world.
The only problem with unifying the ninja world now is not whether it can be conquered, but how to maintain long-term rule after it is conquered.
After all, Konoha only has so many people. If you conquer a place without sending anyone to help you, someone else can take it back as soon as you leave.
This kind of back-and-forth guerrilla warfare is just a back-and-forth tug-of-war, which is completely meaningless.
However, wireless communication completely solves this problem, enabling the detection of all issues in the shortest possible time.
With Minato, who can fly like a thunder god, he can easily control any place.
"Do our best, speed up the pace as much as possible. This is a very important part of the development of Konoha."
"Yes, Lord Qianyao, we understand."
After exchanging a few words with Shikaku, Chiyo instructed Shikaku to call Karin out.
I won't go in myself. After all, the defenses inside the barrier are very tight, and if I go in disguised as someone else, it will cause a lot of trouble.
Not long after, Karin came out hopping and skipping.
"Master!" As always, Karin pounced on Chiyo as soon as she saw him.
Qianyao reached out and hugged Xianglin, then spun her around.
After changing into the new clothes she bought yesterday, Karin looked much more youthful and beautiful.
Moreover, a fully mature figure means she is a mature and voluptuous woman.
Karin, however, is completely oblivious to this. Regardless of her appearance, she always likes to act like a child and act coquettishly towards Chiyo.
Qianyao didn't care. He had already decided on Karin's position, so he naturally didn't care about these intimate gestures.
Holding Karin tightly, he didn't put her down: "Let's go, Orochimaru is still waiting."
Karin chuckled, hugged Chiyo's face and kissed him, then said in a coquettish tone, "Master, take me there."
As she spoke, she grabbed Qianyao's arm and yanked him up. Qianyao cooperated by lifting him up and placing Xianglin on his shoulder.
After Karin settled down, her long, shapely legs swayed beside Chiyo's shoulders.
Qian Yao raised his hand and lightly patted the swaying, round thigh, teasingly laughing:
"You're all grown up now, why do you still like to be hugged like a little kid?"
Karin swung her legs and giggled, "Of course, I'll always love it when Master holds me."
It was indeed a young girl's love, passionate and straightforward.
Qianyao didn't object and simply replied.
"I also like holding you."
He placed his other hand on Karin's leg and gently stroked it.
This action made Karin blush slightly, but she felt secretly pleased and happy to see Chiyo's attraction to her body.
With Karin in her arms, Chiyo headed toward Orochimaru's experiment.
Along the way, they also attracted curious glances from some villagers.
This gesture is still a bit too intimate and ambiguous.
……
Orochimaru's laboratory.
When Chiyo arrived, Hinata Aoto was already waiting there.
"Lord Qian Yao."
Hyuga Aoto quickly bowed to Chiyo, ignoring Karin who was clinging to Chiyo's shoulder.
Qianyao nodded slightly: "Qingdou, it's been five years. How is the Hyuga clan?"
Qingdou bowed again:
"Everything is good in the Hyuga clan now. We no longer have those freeloaders who exploit us. The clan is now working hard to restore its population."
"The first batch of children are almost five years old now."
Due to the previous plan to preserve the lineage, a large number of Hyuga clan members left their descendants elsewhere.
After the successful division of the family, the members of the divided family brought all these women into the clan.
The Hyuga clan is a family that leans towards the old system. In terms of the Hyuga clan's development model, in order to ensure the prosperity of the clan, the only way is to have more children and marry more wives.
Therefore, a wife is not the only one; one can have both a wife and a concubine.
These women, brought back from outside due to the legacy project, were naturally concubines of lower status.
However, compared to the hardships of life outside, being able to become a member of the Hyuga clan and a member of Konoha Village is much better.
These people are a million times willing.
People from Konoha now hold a very prestigious status, which is not easily obtained through ordinary means.
The only way is to marry into Konoha.
"Is he already five years old?" Qian Yao didn't know much about the Legacy Project before.
However, over the course of five years, Karin told him all of these things.
When Qingdou said that, he realized he had also thought of this matter.
"How talented are they?" Qian Yao asked casually.
If the Sharingan is considered to be inherited through recessive genes, then the Byakugan is basically inherited through dominant genes.
Almost everyone in the Hyuga clan will automatically awaken the Byakugan around the age of three or four.
However, all of this is based on the premise that the partner is a ninja.
However, it is clear that the Legacy Project cannot find enough talented women.
A relaxed smile appeared on Hyuga Aoto's face:
“These children have varying talents, but that’s okay. Even if they are not very talented, we will still make sure they grow up healthy.”
After the New Sprout Plan, which involved splitting up the family, the remaining family members cherished this hard-won freedom even more.
The current branch family is a loving extended family, and there are no longer any of the oppressive clan rules of the previous main branch.
"That's good. Your Uchiha clan has great potential. Keep up the good work."
Qianyao naturally knew the limits of the Byakugan, and his words were not an exaggeration at all.
But Qingdou took Qianyao's words as mere politeness and simply echoed them with a few polite words.
Seeing this, Chiyo didn't point it out, figuring the Hyuga clan would understand later anyway.
"Let's go in."
"Yes, Lord Qianyao."
