The Sharingan Hyuga - Volume 1 Chapter 18 Land Of Waves Final
He mumbled “Demon fox….” he suddenly was stunned “The Nine-tailed Demon fox..in short Kyuubi?. so, that means he is a jinchuuriki?”. Then he remembered his conversation with his father asking if he knows the current user. “So, that’s why he made more than three hundred shadow clones at that time of graduation. that’s why villagers hate him. I see. probably that is why no one speaks of the reason why they hate Naruto’s existence. It must be because of Hokage’s order. I see. I wonder how would Hinata react if she knew the truth. But it isn’t something that I can butt into. Whatever her choice is, I have to support her. Anyway, it’s time to finish these two weaklings”.
He changed his stance.
“Hakke Rokujuuyonshou- Eight trigrams 64 palms”
He consecutive struck both of them and finished them in one move. Since they were previously injured heavily. They didn’t have the energy and lost their consciousness.
When she saw Shuichi finished his fight, she too thought of defeating him right away.
Meanwhile, Naruto destroyed the ice Mirrors with force and Hyaku’s identity has been revealed. while they were talking about his story, Yugao made two shadow clones and attacked Zabuza with “Dance of the crescent moon”.
Because the three attacks came simultaneously on blind spots, it made him hard to defend against it. even though he defended against two of them, one attack fatally injured becasue of the power behind the attack. just after the attack, he was completely immobilised by Kakashi’s ninja dogs
Kakashi nodded “good job. now let’s finish this”. He gathered lightning chakra in his left hand.
“Chidori”.
But just when it was about to pierce his heart, suddenly an ice mirror appeared before him. Kakashi didn’t stop and went with the attack, The ice mirror was replaced by a boy and a scroll roll down the floor. It pierced his heart. even while dying he clutched Kakashi’s hand and Zabuza raised his sword to hack him. Kakashi tried to move but the boy clutched dit so hard that it became impossible to move his hand. So, just in time, he jumped and dodged the attack with Haku’s body.
Zabuza who was fatally injured earlier still gathered his strength and dashed toward him but just then, Shuichi ran and stood his way. He attacked him all his strength in his enraged state.
Yugao shouted, “Move away”. But he looked at Zabuza who’s sword was almost getting land on him coldly.
“Hakkeshou Kaiten – Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven”
he spun rapidly by emitting chakra from all of his tenketsu and completely repelled the attack. The attack got nullified. Zabuza flew and crashed onto the ground. even Kakashi who was near him with Haku’s body were repelled away a bit by that force. Shuichi slowly walked towards him while he slowly gets up. He tried to move but limped his leg a bit. After going close to him, Shuichi changed into his stance.
“Hakke Rokujuuyonshou – Eight Trigrams 64 palms”.
he struck him consecutively without him giving any chance even though he didn’t have the energy to fight back and after landing the final strike. Zabuza collapsed on the ground.
But his will power was so strong that he still has his consciousness. He mumbled while tears flowing from his eyes. “please bring me to him”.
Shuichi was just about to reply to something coldly, but he was stopped by Yugao. “Shuichi, we have no direct enmity. we are just hired shinobi from two opposite sides. When the enemy falls in battle, then our enmity will also end there”.
He nodded indicating that he understood her point. Kakashi brought Haku’s body and placed him beside Zabuza. Naruto also reached there while having tears in his eyes.
Shuichi asked, “What happened?”. “Sasuke…Sasuke was…..”. Yugao and Shuichi were shocked at first then, Shuichi frowned “What the hell are you saying, He is alive and well. his breathing was stopped probably”.
Zabuza chuckled “yeah, your friend isn’t dead. he was just put into a fake death. Haku was kind after all. He can never take a life. I wish to go to the same place as Haku. Hey kid, what’s your name?”.
“Shuichi Hyuga”. “can I trouble to give me the death. consider this as my final wish”. Shuichi replied “but I don’t know any techniques to kill someone. All I can stab or slash your throat”. “doesn’t matter”.
After today either the world laugh at me while getting defeated by a kid or will praise you for defeating me”. Shuichi replied “well, it’s not like I defeated you alone. If both of them didn’t injure to that extent, I won’t even the chance at all”.
few seconds later,
kakashi nodded. Shuichi also nodded while taking his kunai out. But just then, Gato and with several gangsters reached the bridge. He started to spout nonsense for a while and then when he insulted Haku and Zabuza. Zabuza suddenly stood up while struggling. He looks at his paralysed hands. “I guess, I won’t be able to go to Haku’s place together after all. Kid, throw that kunai”.
When he threw the Kunai, he caught it with his mouth. He looked at Gato “let’s go to hell together”. He started running towards them slashing each of them with the kunai in his mouth. eventually he stumbled and got stabbed several times but leapt at the final moment towards Gato and slashed his throat and fell.
The remaining couple of dozen gangsters wants to take revenge. but just then, from their backs, the people of the land hundreds of civilians together came with household weapons. infront of them stood Tazuna who lead them to the bridge and chased them away.
The one who was surprised the most is Shuichi. He looked at him and smiled at him for the first time “Old man Tazuna, I guess you finally did it”. Tazuna who was also surprised to see a smile on this always cold looking boy’s face replied with a laugh “yeah. I guess I should partly thank you for it. you made me realise that the problem doesn’t lie with Gato but in our own heart”.
“Well, I haven’t done much, I just shared the knowledge I gained from the book I read with you”.
Then, a few hours later, all sat in the ship and started to return.
A person asked “What should we name the bridge?. Tazuna replied “well, this bridge brought the hope to our town. let’s called call it The Bridge of Hope”.
Later, after they reached Konoha, the feats about them started to circulate all around Konoha.
a few days later, Hyuga clan compound
“Shu, I need to talk to you about something”. “yes, father?” “We have decided to appoint you as the heir on your upcoming birthday next week. Majority of the elders accept my decision”.
“What! but father, what about Hinata?”. He snorted “that girl. do you think she was even suited to be one?. She’s too kind to even be a ninja. when she can’t even land a hit in a practice, what can she do in a real battle?”.
“But if you change clan heir suddenly, I’m afraid there will be commotion among the clan members. Most of the clan already dislike me. If I was made heir, I’m afraid there will be chaos in the clan”.
“You don’t need to worry about it. The elders will take care of that. Moreover, you were the one who was made Clan heir when you was 3 months old, but your grandpa didn’t accept and made Hinata 3 years later”.
“Father, can I take some time to think about it, it’s a lot to take”.
After he went to his room, he punched the wall in frustration. “Damn. I didn’t even get to talk about my new form but Father again dropped a mountain on me. What should I do? Should I feel happy that Father will not put pressure on Hinata or Hanabi again or should I feel sad for trapping myself forever in juken style? Once I become a clan heir, Father will say I should set an example to others. So, I need to convince father somehow or at least I should drag it longer for now”.
later during the evening, Shuichi said: “Father, I can’t accept your decision”.
