Chapter 132: Meeting the Lord of the House
"What do you want?" The door guard almost spat the words at him.
"Wow... is that how the Hyuga clan treats guests? You won't have many that way," Naruto told the guard.
There were two men guarding the main entrance to the Hyuga compound, and it seemed like neither of them liked him much.
"If you have no business here, you need to leave," the second guard said.
"If I had no business here, why would I come? I definitely didn't walk all the way here just to see your ugly faces, that's for sure," Naruto said with a mocking smile. He'd admit he took some joy in messing with these strict types of people.
"You dare?!"
"Even if we are guards, we are still members of the prestigious Hyuga clan. If you think we're going to take insults from a mere genin like you..."
Both guards were reaching their boiling point when the door opened.
The person who came out was the same female attendant that had been following Neji and Hinata a few days prior.
"What do you think you're doing?" she asked the guards.
"This boy insulted us!" one of them pointed at Naruto.
"Yes, he just came here to cause trouble," the other added.
She glanced at Naruto for a second. For some reason, she didn't doubt the claims of Naruto insulting them, but he had come here for a reason.
"Mister Uzumaki has an appointment with Lady Hinata. Let him in."
Once inside, Naruto found the Clan Lord sitting in the middle of a massive room, with only a small tea table in front of him and a few cushions around it.
"Sit down," Hiashi said, showing as much displeasure as he could with his tone alone.
Naruto shook his head and sighed.
In his eyes, this man was no different from a lizard pretending to be a dragon.
He acted like he was some sort of great leader from a large sect or perhaps an emperor.
But his position was lower than the Hokage's, and neither of the two Hokage Naruto had met so far would act in such a way.
The Hyuga clan may have been the biggest in Konoha, but in the grand scheme of things, they weren't that important.
Still, Naruto had nothing to gain by pointing this out to the man, so he went ahead and sat down in front of him.
Hiashi waited for almost three minutes after Naruto sat down before speaking again. This was a common tactic to make the other person nervous and overthink things.
But that wasn't going to do much against someone used to spending whole years sitting in silence.
Also, Naruto never perceived Hiashi, or the rest of his clan, as an important threat.
"I thought I made it very clear that I didn't want you approaching my daughter," Hiashi finally said.
Naruto looked directly into the man's clear, angry white eyes.
"I thought I made it very clear that I didn't care what you wanted."
"What?!" Hiashi shouted.
'Oh... oops, I shouldn't have said it like that. Now he's really angry,' Naruto thought.
"What did you say?!" Hiashi was well past angry at this point.
