9 Forbidden scroll of seals (1/2)
The next day, I woke up at around 6:00, since It would allow me to do some light training before eating breakfast and going to the academy. I knew from the twins, that the Hyuga clan had training time around an hour after the academy would end, thus that was the optimal time to come by. Therefore, the first thing I did after reaching the classroom, was seek them out and make an appointment, which they gladly agreed with.
Using the class time to review my plan for the night I went over all the points of interest, in addition to the spots I had to go to. For now, the only points of interest would be the Namikaze clan compound, which I had to go to in order to deceive Hiruzen, the jonin section at the library, which was rather low on the priorities, the ANBU jutsu vault, despite having no idea where it was, it was still an interesting point, and finally the forbidden scroll of seals, which was located in the hokage residence. Since the Namikaze compound was rather close to the center of the village, it should only be a minor detour.
While I was contemplating some scenarios during a break, I was snapped back to reality by Minato, as I noticed some suicidal boys walking over to bother Kana and Kushina. They started grabbing their hair while saying they looked like tomatoes. At first, I was puzzled as to why they didn't beat those boys up, but from the look of it, Mito should have given them the ”fill yourselves with love not hatred” speech, making them hold back, even if only a little.
Just as I was standing up, pulling Minato with me, Kana was unable to endure any longer, and started throwing the boys through the classroom with a little help from Kushina. After beating them up, they looked grudgingly our way…
”WHAT ARE YOU SMILING AT!?” – Kana and Kushina
Well, that could have gone better, but then again, it was close to what happened in the original, so I guess I would work out? It might be a little more awkward this time around, since we were closer to them, than Minato was with Kushina in the original. This should also be the start of the incident with the chunin, so I guess I will have to look out for them from now on.
The elders didn't seem to mind my presence, since from their perspective this lesson wouldn't be of use to a non-Hyuga. I attentively memorized the rest of the lesson, which even though I missed a lot, would still be of great use in unlocking my byakugan. As the lesson ended, I saw some of the elders nod slightly before leaving, which brought a smile to Hizashi's face, as he walked towards us. After greeting his father, the twins and I followed Hokori to a private room, in order to get business done.
”You must be the Yoshio-san, my boys had mentioned would come over to test a… seal was it?” – Hokori
”That is indeed the case, Hokori-sama, I'm currently working on a stealth seal together with my teacher and fellow students under the first hokage's wife; Mito-sama, in order to increase the survival rate for our ANBU operators” – Me

”A noble goal, though I didn't know the honorable Mito had taken any students… that being the case, why did you seek our help?” - Hokori
”Well you see, we have included parts of a byakugan blocking seal, and would like to see if it kept its function. Because none of us are Hyuga, thus not giving us access to a byakugan, I made a visit here to seek help” – Me
”I see… then, can you bring out the seal? I assume you brought it” – Hokori
As per Hokori's request, I brought out the seal I copied earlier, and applied it to myself. Hiashi and Hizashi both opened their byakugan, amazed that they were unable to see me without direct line of sight. The most surprised was Hokori. He slightly raised his right eyebrow, which looked really weird together with the veins from his byakugan and seemed to be thinking about something.
