Of course, he was lying - the poison in the elder's body impaired control by a couple orders of magnitude, so Takeda Hyuga's chakra blasts were scattered and, if they hit, could only leave a small bruise, not block the tenketsu from circulating in the keirakukei.
- You think you can get away with a coup? - Staggering, the elder rose from the floor. - Sarutobi will not let this go!
- The Hokage has other things to worry about than meddling in clan affairs, especially since he won't be wearing his hat for long," Hizashi curved his lips contemptuously, "so don't worry, old man, our clan will be even stronger after getting rid of the remnants of the past with people like you! - Without wasting any more time on conversation, he rushed forward. - Hakke Hyakku Nijuhachi Sho (Eight Trigrams One Hundred and Twenty-eight Palms)!
The enemy simply didn't have time to react to the hail of attacks that rained down on him, not only damaging the main tenketsu but also hitting vital organs - the jonin didn't hold back, putting all his hatred from the activated slave seal into the blows and almost punching the other Hyuga through.

- You get a greeting from Hishi-sama, you bastard," Hizashi smiled bloodthirstily as he watched the elder's eyes widen at his name, "or did you think he had forgotten and forgiven his grandson, the last of his descendants left alive, who was tortured to death by the seal? How does it feel to realize that it was your actions that led to all this? - He spread his hands dramatically.
The old iryonin not only paved the way for the rebellion of the sideline, but for years he had shared knowledge with talented jonins that was otherwise unavailable, helping to increase the survival rate of generations of Hyuga.
- So this was all the ancient bastard's idea! - Takeda whispered in astonishment and coughed bloody coughs.
- The removal of Hishi-sama from the leadership of Konoha's main hospital with the tacit consent of the clan head and elders was the last straw that allowed him to forget about the blood that runs in your veins," the jonin shrugged, looking at the old man lying on the floor with contempt, "you are to blame for all your problems.
