Hyuga Satomi walked briskly towards the Hyuga Clan Land. Upon returning, she didn't go home but went to Hyuga Hiashi's house first.
Her sister was also there, but Satomi had never been here before, as it was the territory of the Sect Leader.
Even last time, when Uchiha Yoichi visited Hyuga Hiashi, Satomi stayed at the door and then left.
This time marked Satomi's first visit to the Sect Leader's, who was also her brother-in-law's, house.
"Please pass on a message, Hyuga Satomi is visiting."
Satomi said to Hyuga Natsu. She had met Natsu several times, mostly when she followed her sister to her house.
"Ms. Satomi, Lady Hiashi is at home, you can go in directly."
Natsu could decide on this matter, after all, Satomi is Lady Hiashi's sister.
"I'm not here to see my sister, but to find Clan Leader Hiashi to relay some matters."
"I see... then please follow me."
Natsu hesitated for a moment, then nodded to Satomi, turning around to head inside.
Once Satomi was taken to the reception room, Natsu went to inform Hyuga Hiashi.
After a while, Hyuga Hiashi entered the room and sat opposite Satomi.
After Hyuga Natsu served two cups of tea, Hiashi, adhering to etiquette, asked, "Satomi, do you have some matter with me? Is there anything the Fifth wants you to relay?"
Recently, the Hyuga Clan had also adhered to the village's policies and supported the reforms of the Security Team, so Hiashi felt their clan's relationship with the Fifth was quite good.
However, some elders believed the Fifth overly sheltered Satomi, interfering in the matters between the Main and Branch Family.
"Clan Leader, does the Hyuga Clan count as a Branch of the Otsutsuki Branch? Today, Teacher Yoichi and I went to the Moon, met the real Otsutsuki Race, and learned about the origins of the Hyuga Clan..."
Satomi spoke of the Moon's matters, but concealed the Tenseigan and her body's changes.
Hyuga Hiashi, upon hearing Satomi's words, was initially very shocked, and after hearing everything, he exhaled a long breath and asked,
"Satomi, what does the Fifth mean?"
"Teacher Yoichi asked me to inquire if you want to accept Otsutsuki Toneri, but his Chakra has been sealed and needs to be observed... Also, the legacy of Otsutsuki Hamura on the Moon is currently only viewable by me, and I can guide others."
Satomi spoke confidently, this was the backing Uchiha Yoichi gave her.
"I will select talented Branch Family ninjas from the clan to appropriately pass on the Otsutsuki Legacy Secret Techniques to them. As for the Main Family, their legacy is complete, with many Secret Techniques only learnable by them, so I suppose it isn't necessary for me to impart them!"
"Satomi!"
Hiashi frowned upon hearing this, speaking in a deep tone, "You are a member of the Hyuga Clan, and the Secret Technique legacy you've obtained should be submitted to the family."
"This is what Teacher Yoichi and I obtained, it's unrelated to the Hyuga Clan..."
"Hyuga Satomi, for Hiromi's sake, I've decided to speak with you nicely, and even helped quiet the Main Family Elders before... But don't think I'm being cautious, even the Fifth can't interfere with the Hyuga Clan..."
Before finishing, Hiashi opened his eyes wide, stunned by what he saw.
Under his gaze, Satomi removed her headband, revealing an exceptionally white forehead, where originally there should have been the blue Caged Bird Curse Seal, but now it had vanished.
"Clan Leader, the Main Family's means to restrain me cannot be used anymore!"
Satomi said with a smile, though her eyes weren't so kind.
