Chapter 96 The Ignored Fact
Because it was something that had been decided in synchronization, it didn't take a lot of time.
Before the first half of the night was over, Hyuga Hiashi went back to his room to rest.
Although he didn't experience a dangerous battlefield, he had been negotiating with the village's high-level officials from yesterday to today, forcing himself to remember all kinds of information.
This kind of high-intensity brain operation consumes energy and faces pressure that is definitely not easier than staring at and killing an enemy on the battlefield.
The father left first, and Ryosuke and Hinata did not leave the study immediately, but talked about the content of the synchronization just now.
Every time the three of them gathered in the study to discuss some more important things, Ryosuke always needed to spend some time explaining to Hinata after the end.
Although the children in this world are very precocious, and Hinata is even more precocious, after all, the experience and experience are there.
There are many things that she doesn't understand, so she can only remember them silently and wait to ask Ryosuke later.
Over time, she has developed this habit now.
"The village's top management can only accommodate people who are centered on the village. You should be able to see this from the village's past records of appointments."
"So, if we take over the real power of the guard team, it is not a good thing. Although we may be comfortable before the alliance is reached, we are likely to be targeted as time goes by."
"This possibility is unpredictable, so instead of betting that the people in the village will be considerate, it is better to start from other aspects and reduce conflicts of interest..."
While explaining to Hinata, Ryosuke sorted out his thoughts.
This process can be regarded as a review, or it can be said that it is more intuitive to make your thoughts clear through language description.
Hinata listened silently, remembered it in her mind, and did not take notes to prevent these things from leaking out.
After Ryosuke's own thoughts were clear and he completely absorbed all the information he learned today, Hinata also understood the current status of Hyuga in Konoha, as well as Ryosuke and his father's grasp of the situation in the ninja world.
Although she knew that Ryosuke was very talented.
She also knew that her father and others had been hiding this matter and giving Ryosuke time to grow.
Perhaps when Ryosuke grows up, the situation in Konoha Village will change dramatically.
But she didn't know that this process was so complicated.
In Hinata's previous thinking, isn't this something that can be done by hiding and not interacting with other people?
Until now, she has seen clearly that if they want to grow steadily, they must take some things into their hands.
"I always feel that Ryosuke and my father have to think more than other ninjas."
After hesitating for a while, Hinata couldn't help but say: "Other people are thinking about how to fight for benefits and how to become stronger, but your direction doesn't seem to be here..."
Compared to becoming stronger, compared to the direct goal of encroaching on benefits and controlling power.
She felt that the direction of Ryosuke and the others seemed to be more complicated, and they became a little less like ninjas.
"Being able to see these shows that you have really grown up."
Ryosuke looked at her with a chuckle and asked: "What do you think of your father's strength in the clan?"
He was very pleased that Hinata could see this aspect.
"...Second?"
After a moment of hesitation, Hinata replied uncertainly: "If it's the first, it should be Ryosuke."
As the clan leader, his father is of course the strongest in the clan.
But she noticed that her father suddenly had a wound on his body some time ago.
As the clan leader, his father was injured, which is not a simple matter, and the person who caused all this can only be Ryosuke, and only he has this opportunity.
But correspondingly, Ryosuke was very normal in those days. From these details, she speculated that Ryosuke's strength may be above his father.
But unfortunately, she guessed wrong.
Ryosuke shook his head, "If calculated by actual combat power, my father's strength in the clan can only rank sixth."
"Of course, I haven't seen many people take action, and I only rely on some intelligence judgments. The actual ranking may be even lower."
Not to mention other people, the actual combat power of Hyuga Hiashi, who went to the Land of Waves with him before, and Hyuga Iroha is definitely better than Hyuga Hiashi.
Although he didn't think any of the jonin in the clan had the ability to defeat his father, he felt that most of them should be able to do it.
The premise is that he doesn't use the words of a caged bird.
"How... how is it possible?"
Hinata frowned in confusion, a little unconvinced, "Father is the clan leader..."
"Just because he is the clan leader doesn't mean he is the strongest."
Shaking his head regretfully, Ryosuke stood up from his seat and walked to the bookshelf, "I remember I told you that as the head of a clan, the talents required are not just in terms of combat power."
"To become a qualified clan leader, the abilities required include, but are not limited to, strategy and leadership. The heart that is willing to devote everything to the clan and the idea of putting the clan's interests first are also essential."
As he spoke, he took out a scroll from the bookshelf and threw it to her, "This is the information of a clan jonin named Hyuga Tian. It contains my father's evaluation of him. You can take a look."
Hinata was stunned. Just as she was about to speak, another scroll came towards her.
She hurriedly put the scroll in her hand on the table, and then quickly reached out to catch the flying scroll.
"This is a jonin named Hyuga Kamon..."
"You have seen this Hyuga Takashi. He used to be your guard..."
One scroll after another, a full five scrolls, all recorded the information of a jonin.
And among them, there was also his father's evaluation.
Hinata could easily see from the evaluation and the actual records of the tasks performed by each jonin that they were all stronger than her father.
"Is this...rights?"
Although he didn't have strong power, he was able to rule over clan members who were stronger than himself. This was something Hinata had never thought of.
She had always felt that her father was the clan leader because he was the most powerful.
But now, this idea was broken.
Hinata discovered a problem that she had always ignored.
"Does this mean... just because I was born in the main family, I am the future heir to the head of the Hyuga family. Even if I am not the most powerful ninja, even if I do not have enough talent, everyone has to listen to me."
Hinata tilted her head and looked at Ryosuke strangely, "Ryosuke, I think we are very strange. Why do we Hyuga not rely on excellent talents to elect the clan leader, but rely on...bloodline?"
"If a clan leader who is not decent appeared in any generation, wouldn't our Hyuga be in chaos?"
Facing her puzzled eyes, Ryosuke was a little complicated. When he heard her first sentence, he thought Hinata would accept this as a matter of course.
But he did not expect that as a party who enjoyed this system, she would speak out to refute that there were loopholes in this system.
