Chapter 44: Siscon Is Really Easy to Fool
"Xiao Jie Xuan, three days from now, I'll be heading to the battlefield."
Might Guy packed his luggage while sighing with emotion. "I'll have to trouble you to take care of Little Duy!"
...
"Come on, let's have a proper talk."
Li Jie Xuan grabbed Hyuga Yizhen who was about to turn and leave, his face full of a pained, exasperated expression. No matter what, he had never expected that Might Guy would actually be going to the battlefield together with Hyuga Yizhen.
"You agreed?"
Hyuga Yizhen grabbed Li Jie Xuan in delight and said happily, "You really agreed to fight my dad?"
Beating up your dad, and you're this happy—are you really okay?
"For now, let's first work out a detailed plan to beat up your dad."
At this point, Li Jie Xuan couldn't help pausing, giving Hyuga Yizhen a strange look. "You really don't have a problem with this?"
"No problem, no problem!"
Hyuga Yizhen looked thrilled. "As long as you beat my dad, he'll understand that this isn't Yi Zu's fault."
A total little-brother fanatic…
"You're not going to be called Uchiha Itachi in your next life, are you…?"
Li Jie Xuan grimaced painfully. "First, you need to tell me your dad's strength and the ninja techniques he commonly uses!"
"My dad is a Special Chunin. His techniques include the clan's secret arts: Gentle Fist Eight Trigrams Palm, Rotation, Byakugan, and Eight Trigrams Air Palm!"
For the sake of his younger brother, Hyuga Yizhen sold his own dad out without the slightest hesitation.
"Special Chunin, huh?"
Li Jie Xuan pinched his chin and nodded thoughtfully.
If he wasn't Jonin yet, then maybe there was still a chance…
The sunlight was gentle, birds chirped softly—it was a fine, breezy day.
But Hyuga Bozhen's mood right now was anything but good.
His eldest son, who was about to head to the battlefield, was kneeling before him, covered in injuries.
"Father, this is a challenge letter from Li Jie Xuan!"
Hyuga Yizhen carefully handed over the letter he had been holding…
To Old Thief Bozhen of the Hyuga, personally:
Just from reading the opening line, Hyuga Bozhen felt his blood pressure shoot straight up.
"You beat the younger brother, then the older brother comes. Beat the older brother, and the old man probably won't be able to sit still either! I, Li Jie Xuan, am not someone who likes to waste words. Today at five in the afternoon, I'll be waiting for you at the park. When the time comes, the three of you—father and sons—can all come ask me for guidance together!"
—Hyuga Grandpa, stay—
"Hyuga Grandpa…"
Hyuga Bozhen suddenly clenched the letter tightly. No matter what, this piece of paper absolutely could not spread. Otherwise, the Hyuga clan would become a laughingstock…
"Dad, will you go fight Li Jie Xuan?"
Seeing this, Hyuga Yizhen probed cautiously.
"Nonsense! How could I fight a Three-year-old child!"
Hyuga Yizhen angrily flicked his sleeve and stormed off...
No matter what, he was a main pillar of the prestigious Hyuga clan. How could he possibly duel with a child!
Seeing this, Hyuga Yizhen lowered his head in disappointment...
Ten minutes later...
Li Jie Xuan let out a helpless sigh and gently patted Hyuga Yizhen on the shoulder. "Since that's the case, we can only carry out Plan B!"
"But… is this really okay?"
A rare look of hesitation appeared on Hyuga Yizhen's face. This was the same guy who hadn't hesitated at all when planning to beat up his own dad.
But Li Jie Xuan was already at the point where the arrow was on the bowstring—there was no choice but to release it!
"For Yi Zu, we have to make sacrifices!"
Li Jie Xuan clenched his fist, his eyes flashing with firm resolve!
"For Yi Zu!"
Hyuga Yizhen suddenly widened his eyes and muttered to himself, "That's right… this is all for Yi Zu. I understand now!"
Li Jie Xuan smiled with satisfaction and waved his hand. "Since you understand, then hurry up and get to it!"
Hyuga Yizhen nodded firmly and rushed out of the park with determination...
Watching Hyuga Yizhen's figure running beneath the setting sun, Li Jie Xuan couldn't help grinning. "Little-brother fanatics really are easy to fool!"
No wonder that old Third Hokage managed to talk Itachi into a cripple with just his mouth...
Four words drifted across the sky: For the little brother!
