Chapter 197 Eye-Catching
In the Hyuga clan's residence in Konoha Village.
Hinata's petite body knelt in the center of the spacious seat, surrounded by emptiness and nothingness.
Opposite her, the Hyuga main family members knelt in a row facing her, holding a clan meeting.
Hiyuki Hyuga stood among the main branch members, a sorrowful expression on his face, and said gravely, "Lady Hinata, we just received news from the Land of Iron."
"The Five Kage Summit has ended. Our Konoha Village has suffered a humiliating defeat, signing a series of agreements with the other four countries that ceded territory and paid reparations."
"Ah!" Hinata gasped, her face paling, but she quickly covered her mouth. "How could this happen?"
"Alas!" Hyuga Hiyu sighed, "The village's military strength has been severely weakened, with a large number of ninjas sacrificing their lives in the previous incident."
"Our Hyuga clan has also suffered extremely heavy losses. The clan has decided to hold a grand clan festival tomorrow to commemorate and pray for the clan members who died."
"Ah, that's only right. I'll definitely be there on time," Hinata interjected.
But Hiyuki Hyuga ignored her and continued, "The current situation is that even if a peace treaty is signed, peace in Konoha Village may not necessarily come."
"Reports from the front indicate that the Uchiha rogue ninja, Uchiha An, has reappeared at the Five Kage Summit and unleashed a powerful ninjutsu in the Land of Iron, causing immense casualties among the people of the Land of Iron."
"He has a deep-seated hatred for our Konoha Village, and he will definitely come to cause trouble for us in the future."
"At that time, Hinata, the safety of the clan will depend on you."
"Huh?" Hinata was taken aback, her face quickly turning red. She lowered her head and stammered, "That—how could such a heavy responsibility be placed on my shoulders?"
"I...I can't do it—"
"What did you say, young lady?"
Hyuga Hyuga glared at him, angrily saying, "Now that our clan leader, Amanto, is missing and countless Jonin have died or been wounded, the only one we can rely on to protect the clan is you, young lady, who possesses the Tenseigan!"
"But...but I don't know any ninjutsu, and my chakra reserves are low. Even with the Tenseigan, I can't fully unleash its power!"
That's exactly what I've been waiting to hear!
Ri Yong's spirits lifted, and he feigned hesitation before saying, "That makes sense!"
"Young Miss is still young and should be attending the Ninja Academy. To send her to the battlefield so rashly would make our Hyuga clan look rather incompetent."
"Furthermore, the young lady has almost no combat experience. Even with a treasure like the Tenseigan, she probably won't be able to play a significant role on the battlefield!"
"But the family has put in so much effort and made so many sacrifices to cultivate this pair of Reincarnation Eyes," so we can't just leave them unused, can we?"
The head of the main branch immediately suggested, "Actually, if possible, we could transplant Hinata's eyes into another head of the main branch, so that the other head of the main branch can fight in her place."
"?"
Hinata looked up in surprise, only to hear many elders praising, "That's a good idea."
"Although the main family members generally don't go to the battlefield, some sacrifices are inevitable for the sake of the family!"
"Um, um—"
Hinata was naturally unwilling to give up her eyes, but she was too young and naive, and was somewhat bewildered by what they said.
She finally mustered up the courage to say something, but when she looked up, she saw a group of people staring intently at her. Her courage faltered, and she lowered her head again.
Hinata Hiyuki, however, was still not letting her off the hook, staring intently at Hinata and asking, "So, what does Lady Hinata think?"
"I—I—" Hinata's gaze wandered unconsciously, wanting to find someone to lean on, but there was no one around her.
There was no father, and no little blondie.
Hinata felt a chill run through her body, and a sense of helplessness washed over her. She could only obediently give in.
She lowered her head, burying it deep in her chest, and said in a voice barely audible, "I understand. Let's do as Elder Riyong says."
"Ah, I knew Hinata was a reasonable person. She will definitely lead our Hyuga clan to glory when she grows up."
After his wish was fulfilled, Hinata Hiyuki beamed with joy and began praising Hinata without reservation.
The other main clans had already received Hyuga Hiyu's promise that after the memorial ceremony tomorrow, they would begin to train all the main clans to have the Tenseigan, striving to make the Hyuga clan the strongest clan in Konoha in the shortest possible time, or even the number one clan in the ninja world!
So now they're very supportive, joining Hyuga Hiyu in praising Hinata.
Hinata was quickly overwhelmed by the praise, and even the sadness of losing her eyes gradually disappeared.
After settling the matter, Hyuga Hiyu went out to find Yakushi Kabuto.
"Jonin Yakushi, are you sure there are no problems with the transplant?"
"Please rest assured, Elder Riyong, there are absolutely no problems with the matching. After all, you and Miss Hinata are close relatives, so the chance of organ rejection is extremely low. It will definitely be successful."
The pharmacist chuckled, adjusted his glasses, and patted his chest in assurance.
With the confirmation from the medical ninja, Hyuga Hiyori was relieved and began arranging the transplant surgery.
This time, a professional medical room was used—a clean and sterile operating room, with the smell of disinfectant permeating the air.
Two medical beds were placed side by side, with various medical instruments next to them, and IV drips, blood vials and other items hanging on the shelves, indicating that they were well prepared.
As instructed by Kabuto, Hiyori Hyuga changed into a hospital gown and lay down on a medical bed, next to Hinata Hyuga, who was dressed similarly.
Kabuto first connected all the instruments and equipment to the two people and began recording data. Then, he picked up a syringe, gently pushed it out to expel the air from the medicine, and said with a smile, "To ensure the safety and success rate of the surgery, I will now administer some anesthesia to both of you."
Hyuga Hiyuu waved to the guards beside him, signaling them to keep a close eye on things, then smiled and nodded, saying, "I'll leave everything to Jonin Yakushi."
"It's all what I should do."
After obtaining Hyuga Hiyu's consent, Kabuto smiled and injected the anesthetic into the two of them.
Moments later, the two fell into a coma.
Under the guards' wary gazes, Kabuto smiled and stepped forward, gently removing Hinata Hyuga's Tenseigan and placing it in the medicine box before handing it to his assistant behind him.
Then he smiled and went to remove Hyuga Hiyu's white eyes.
As Yakushi Kabuto approached Hyuga Hiyori and raised his scalpel, one of Hyuga Hiyori's two guards took two steps forward, supporting his neck and watching Yakushi Kabuto's surgery, while the other walked up to the assistant and reached out to take the box containing the "Tenseigan" medicine.
"hehe----"
Suddenly, Kabuto's assistant laughed, opened his mouth wide, and a huge white snake shot out, biting off the guard's head with a "crack".
