"What about the Caged Bird?!"
Seeing Hyuga Satomi's smooth and fair forehead, Hyuga Hiashi couldn't sit still and half-squatted, shouting the question.
Then he immediately thought of Uchiha Yoichi and his expression changed as he said, "Did the Fifth Generation help you lift the Caged Bird Curse Seal?"
"Why is the Clan Leader so agitated? Isn't the meaning of the Caged Bird to prevent the Byakugan bloodline from leaking? Now that Teacher Yoichi is willing to stand up for the Hyuga Clan, what worries do you have, Clan Leader?"
Hyuga Satomi said defiantly. Previously, the elders had wanted her to get married, end her ninja career, and undergo bridal training; if not for having a good teacher, Hyuga Natsu's fate earlier might have been her own future.
"Hyuga Satomi, with actions like these, do you really think the Main Family doesn't dare to enforce the clan rules on you?"
Hyuga Hiashi said with a very unpleasant expression. Previously, Hyuga Satomi didn't want to marry and privately researched the Revolving Heaven Secret Technique or the like; it was overlooked because her teacher was the Fifth Generation Hokage, after all, those were minor issues.
However, the Caged Bird is fundamental to the survival of the Hyuga Clan. This is something Hyuga Hiashi absolutely cannot tolerate.
"Clan rules? Ha, Clan Leader, you can try, bring those Main Family elders together!"
Hyuga Satomi said with a cold smile, and then stood up. Because she was somewhat emotional, she felt a pain in her eyes when she stood, but she endured it forcibly.
Eye pain is nothing. Now, without the Caged Bird, just her own power after activating the Sage Curse Seal is not something these people in the Main Family can contend with.
Furthermore, Hyuga Satomi also has Uchiha Yoichi's Chakra, which gives her even more confidence.
"Without the Caged Bird, how does the Clan Leader plan to control someone like me in the Branch Family? Why not give it a try."
After saying this, Hyuga Satomi snorted coldly and walked out. But after opening the guest room door, she happened to see her sister Hyuga Hiromi with her two daughters.
Hyuga Satomi gave her sister a glance, a gentle and traditional woman who had always treated her well. But now, if she talked to Hiromi, it might make things difficult for this sister at home.
So Hyuga Satomi touched Hyuga Hanabi's head and said with a smile, "So cute, too bad you'll be part of the Branch Family in the future..."
With that, Hyuga Satomi directly left.
After hearing the door close, Hyuga Hiromi finally put down Hanabi and Hinata, walked into the room and closed the door, then softly asked, "Hiashi, what's going on?"
"It's none of your concern, just take care of Hanabi and Hinata, and make sure Hinata doesn't slack off!"
Hyuga Hiashi could hardly conceal his anger, and after saying this, he got up to leave.
He needed to discuss with the other elders the lifting of the Caged Bird, the clan ancestors on the Moon, the ancestral secret techniques, and other matters that he could no longer handle alone.
Uchiha Yoichi was not aware of Hyuga Satomi's actions, but even if he was, he would not oppose them.
The Hyuga Clan couldn't stir up much commotion, and all the Branch Family longed to rid themselves of the Caged Bird Curse Seal and gain freedom; even Hyuga Hiashi's brother was very reluctant for his talented son to have the Byakugan defect, not to mention other members of the Hyuga Branch Family.
Not being able to learn Revolving Heaven, Air Palm, and other secret techniques was previously endured because it was said to protect the Byakugan, as the Byakugan, unlike the Sharingan, couldn't be used after transplantation.
But now the village is willing to protect the Byakugan, and with Uchiha Yoichi's assurance that in case of any incident of Byakugan theft, the village would intervene, the notion of the Caged Bird protecting the Byakugan loses its meaning, unless the Hyuga Main Family distrusts the village, which would lead to even more severe consequences.
And Uchiha Yoichi made this statement privately to Hyuga Hiashi, because if it were made public within the village to the Branch Family, they would have already revolted.
Even if not for themselves, the Branch Family does not wish for their children to bear flawed Byakugan for a lifetime, while also being unable to learn Gentle Fist Secret Techniques.
After returning, Uchiha Yoichi handed over the Otsutsuki Toneri to the Security Team for temporary placement, then found the person responsible for the remodeling plan of the Konoha urban area.
The area above the Hokage Rock was initially intended for a park, but now let's change it to a Tenseigan High Platform instead.
Building a twenty-meter high platform here can enable the Tenseigan to radiate throughout the entire village, even extending outside the village.
Uchiha Yoichi also observed the Otsutsuki Race's application of energy on the Moon, and it must be said, it surpasses the Ninja World considerably; while the Ninja World is still reliant on electricity and oil, the Moon can already use the power of the Tenseigan to propel planets.
Though the Moon is artificial, its size is not small in the least.
"Mr. Yoichi, you're back. What's the matter for you to call me here?"
After being summoned by the Anbu, Hatake Sakumo saw Uchiha Yoichi take out a gigantic stone sphere and couldn't help but ask, "What is this thing?"
"A village weapon, not only can it provide energy for an entire nation, but its power also surpasses that of a Tailed Beast."
After a brief explanation, Uchiha Yoichi looked at Hatake Sakumo and continued, "Let's prioritize constructing this thing. Once it's completed, Konoha can build a Barrier capable of withstanding Tailed Beast Balls, and even if one hundred thousand enemies surround Konoha, they can be easily annihilated."
Upon hearing this, Hatake Sakumo was astonished. Uchiha Yoichi's words were too surprising, suggesting something more powerful than the Nine-tailed. Once he regained his composure, he immediately responded,
