Chapter Seventy: Bitter Silence
Hinata's shoulders heaved as Sasuke came up behind her and placed a hand on her back. She immediately calmed so he let it fall. Her Byakugan had activated with her anger and she slowly let it bleed away.
She may not have wanted to appear overtly threatening to her father, but Sasuke had no compunction doing so. He moved to stand beside her, casually revealing his Sharingan.
Hiashi said nothing, merely raised an eyebrow and made a show of slowly opening the scroll and scanning the contents. He looked back to the two ninja before him and rolled it closed.
