Glory Konoha

Chapter 204 The Abyss of Despair, the Two People Interlaced by Light and Shadow

"Huh..." Looking at Iwa Shinobi who retreated in front of him, Saori Hyuga breathed a sigh of relief.

Since following the legion to the northwest battlefield, in order to avoid Hyuga Hyuzu and others, she directly led her men to station at the forefront of the battlefield.

After several months of fierce fighting, even with her current strength, she felt that her body could not bear it anymore, but the "caged bird" on her forehead seemed to remind her all the time that she needed to continue fighting.

For this reason, she could only continue to fight the enemy with her exhausted body.

Saori originally thought that this kind of life would last until the end of the war, but an unexpected piece of news today successfully changed the course of the matter.

"Second Elder Uchiha was captured, Nagisa Uchiha died in battle, and Kyosuke went to the enemy camp alone to rescue him."

This news was inadvertently revealed by a Konoha ninja, and the first time Saori Hyuga heard about it, she chose to return to the camp that she didn't want to go back to.

On the way back, she received the latest news again, and this news was sent to her by Shikahisa Nara himself as the commander.

The news clearly stated that Uchiha Kyousuke's rescue operation failed, and the captured second elder and other tribesmen were cursed by the enemy, so Kyousuke had no choice but to kill the tribesmen himself.

Nara Shikahisa knew that Hyuga Saori and Kyosuke had a good relationship, and there were even rumors in the Konoha Legion that the two were undisclosed lovers, so he immediately asked Saori to return from the frontline battlefield.

Because Kyosuke has locked himself in the tent since he returned to the camp, no matter who he is, Hinata Hyuzu once wanted to go to enlighten him in person, but was blown out by his blow.

If it wasn't for the fact that Nizu's own strength was not bad, this blow would have caused him to be seriously injured directly.

The occurrence of this scene also successfully extinguished the thoughts of everyone in Konoha who wanted to persuade, but now that the battle situation is at a critical moment, Kyosuke, who is the highest combat power, is staying behind closed doors. For this reason, Shikahisa Nara pinned his hopes on Hyuga Saori's body.

If she can help Kyosuke get out of the shadows, it will be of great help to the battle situation. As the commander, Shikahisa Nara is very sure of this.

Of course, even if Shikajiu didn't do this, Saori Hyuga would go to Kyosuke's side after getting the news, just like he once saved himself in despair.

"Now, let me save you."

At this time, on the other hand, Uchiha Nagisa is rapidly shuttling under the surface using A Fei's ability.

"Hey, don't be in such a hurry, my body won't be able to take it anymore." Ah Fei kept complaining.

"Shut up, just say one more word, and I will wipe out your consciousness, and you can move forward just as well as manipulating your body." The girl who had initially figured out her abilities unceremoniously threatened her.

Like A Fei, a man-made "life body", her ability can almost play a complete role, even if she can't use pupil power proficiently now.

"Puppet" This is the ability in Uchiha Nagisa's left eye. It can manipulate any object at will and turn it into a doll that obeys its own commands.

Of course, like a living person or a living body with independent consciousness, her control ability will be greatly reduced. Unless the control is completed when it loses consciousness, it will be difficult to tame it in the first place.

And A Fei, who looks like a living body, is just the power obtained through the cells between the columns, and even its consciousness is split from Bai Jue's body. In essence, it is a clone of Bai Jue, so I want to It is not too difficult for a girl to manipulate it.

As long as she wanted, at this distance, A Fei's consciousness could be erased at any time and transformed into a puppet that obeyed orders.

A Fei's fear of encountering a natural enemy came from this.

Hearing the girl's cold words, Ah Fei's body trembled subconsciously, and in the end he could only continue to let him control him aggrievedly.

The current two people have arrived in the territory of the Fire Country, and if this continues, they will soon approach the camp of the Northwest Legion.

Just as Uchiha Nagisa was on his way, the conversation of several Konoha ninjas above the surface attracted the girl's attention.

The speed slowly decreased, and she was hidden under the feet of several people, quietly listening to their conversation.

"Have you heard that Uchiha's second elder was actually captured by the enemy? It's really embarrassing." A Konoha ninja said mysteriously.

"Cut." The other person looked at his companion with disdain, and then said in an even more disdainful tone: "Your news is so backward. As far as I know, the head of the Jingjie Army has gone to the rescue alone and returned safely."

"Uh, is that so, then tell me the detailed process."

"Cough." Seeing the curiosity-seeking eyes of his companions, the ninja coughed proudly and said, "I've heard other people say the specific situation. It seems that Master Kyosuke's rescue operation failed in the end."

"I don't know the detailed process. I only know that the waste-like Second Elder Uchiha and other captives were beheaded and killed by Master Kyosuke. It seems that the corpses were burned clean by Master Kyosuke."

"Uh, isn't the legion leader going to save people? How could that be?" A ninja questioned himself.

"Cut, what else can it be? I guess it's because the injuries of those wastes are too serious, and the legion commander who is not strong enough will choose to kill them." Speaking of this, he nodded as if agreeing: "Actually I can also understand the actions of the adults, since the clansmen cannot be rescued, it is normal to eliminate them in order to prevent blood from leaking out, don’t all the major families do this, otherwise why would they burn their bodies.”

"Maybe. The legion leader is here to get rid of those useless clansmen."

"Shh, silence, it's the Uchiha family's business after all, we don't care what the regiment leader does." One person interrupted everyone's imagination, and then led his own people to continue the patrol work.

Seeing that there was no gossip to listen to, the people around gradually dispersed.

Ah Fei, who was in the ground, felt the trembling body of the girl in his body, hesitated for a moment before reminding softly: "Don't worry about what they say, be careful that your existence is exposed, and continue on your way."

It took a long time for Uchiha Nagisa to calm down again, but A Fei, who is good at perception, found that the Chakra on the girl's body gave off a slightly gloomy feeling, which meant that the hatred in her heart became stronger.

"Kaleidoscope Sharingan is worthy of being called the cursed eyes. It is really enviable that the strength of the user can be enhanced by emotional fluctuations alone." Ah Fei sighed softly in his heart.

However, there was no trace of envy in the expression on its face. On the contrary, a strange smile mixed with sarcasm was fleeting.

Not long after the two left, those ninjas who had been scattered in all directions stopped suddenly, and then turned their heads to look in the direction of her departure, with the same weird smile on their faces as A Fei.

In the camp of the Northwest Legion, Kyosuke sat alone in the tent, shrouded in shadow.

There are almost no other people around the tent. Everyone knows that he is in a bad mood now, so there will be no one who doesn't open his eyes to disturb him.

Of course, there are exceptions to everything, such as that Qianying rushing over.

Hearing the footsteps coming from outside the tent, Kyosuke's murderous voice resounded in the tent.

"roll!"

"Tsk tsk, Mr. Kyosuke has such a great official authority." Accompanied by the brisk ridicule, the figure of Saori Hyuga walked in without hesitation.

Seeing her coming, Kyosuke's eyes moved slightly, and then turned around, not wanting her to see him like this.

"Hey." Saori who sighed in his heart slowly walked forward, hugged him from behind, and said softly, "Let's go for a walk."

Without waiting for Kyosuke to refuse, Saori went outside the tent and waited quietly.

Obviously, in order to take care of Kyosuke's face and not want him to expose his weak side, she got up early and left.

Facing Saori like this, Kyosuke couldn't bear to refuse her request. He reached out and wiped his somewhat messy face, and after a brief wash, Kyosuke walked out of the tent.

"Let's go, there is a small river for water not far away, let's go there for a stroll." Saori turned around and glanced at him, then pulled Jingsuke involuntarily, and quickly left the camp through the side door.

Along the way, both of them kept silent until they came to the side of the small river, Saori Hyuga turned around and stared into Kyosuke's eyes solemnly.

"Actually, you don't need to comfort me." Just as Kyosuke was about to say something, Saori in front of him suddenly made an unexpected move.

Slowly putting her hands on Kyosuke's face, she smiled softly, and the atmosphere between the two became a little charming instantly.

"Gudong~" Even though the sadness in his heart was still spreading, Kyosuke's heartbeat still accelerated a little bit disappointingly.

Just when he didn't know whether to refuse or obediently closed his eyes, those originally gentle hands exerted force suddenly, pushing the unresponsive Kyosuke into the river in one fell swoop.

"Do you think my old lady is trying to comfort you, stop dreaming." Hinata Saori said "viciously", and at the same time she kept repeating the action of picking up and pressing down.

"I haven't seen you for a few months, when did you become like a little girl?"

"Wow, what are you doing, stop quickly. Gudong Gudong~"

"Speaking of which, did you want to close your eyes just now, were you thinking about something nasty?"

"Ah bah, the water is too cold, I'm gurgling~"

"Do you think my old lady wants to kiss you? Stop dreaming."

"I, I'm not like that. Gudong Gudong~"

"What?! You don't want to, it's unreasonable, go to hell!"

"It's too fucking deceiving." Kyosuke, who finally came to his senses, dragged Saori into the river with his ingenuity, and unfortunately he was dragged down by him, and the two rolled in the river for a while. There was a ball.

After a long time, the two resurfaced.

"Hi~" Kyosuke subconsciously opened his mouth and hiccupped. In this state, he couldn't say what he originally wanted to say.

They looked at each other for a while, and then the two laughed at the same time, but a tear slipped from Kyosuke's face while smiling.

And he lowered his head, speaking intermittently in a voice full of pain.

"I, I didn't arrive in time, and I couldn't save the people."

"I've tried so much, but I still can't save anyone, I... I'm in so much pain"

"Damn it, why did you let me come into this world? What is the meaning of my existence?"

Seeing that Kyosuke's emotions were finally brought out, Saori slowly hugged him in her arms, and said softly but firmly vetoed: "No, you saved me, who was once confused and afraid."

"There are also countless companions on the battlefield. Many of them survived because of you. Don't deny this because of temporary frustration."

"But, but" Kyosuke screamed in pain in her arms.

"I know, I know everything." Saori patted him on the back as if coaxing a child, trying to channel out all his negative emotions.

"Although you couldn't save that little girl, nor could you save the clansmen, but you've tried your best, haven't you?"

".Ah!!!" Finally, Kyosuke's suppressed emotions broke out completely. He hugged Saori tightly, buried his head deeply in her arms, and cried bitterly.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

"Fucking, did you find anyone?" Uchiha Nagisa hid in an underground place outside the camp, impatiently urging A Fei who was in charge of perception.

"...Don't worry, I have to be careful to avoid the barrier set by the perception ninja, and be patient." A Fei said helplessly in his tone.

Seeing this situation, even if Nagisa Uchiha's heart was agitated, he could only continue to wait helplessly.

Of course, Ah Fei had learned about Kyosuke's going out early in the morning through Bai Jue's surveillance, and he was just waiting for the scene that could completely break the girl's spiritual barrier.

After another delay, when Nagisa Uchiha couldn't bear it, he suddenly said, "We found him."

"...Take me there." A few short words contained a mixture of emotions such as anger, fear, and hope, and the meaning in them was not understandable to the unsophisticated Ah Fei.

Unable to figure it out, it could only quickly walk through the ground with the girl, and soon came to the small river.

Approaching cautiously, he found an inconspicuous dark grass, and then A Fei slowly rose from the ground.

The darkness in front of his eyes suddenly turned into light, and Uchiha Nagisa couldn't accept such a change for a while.

Her vision was obstructed, but it didn't prevent her from being able to hear faint cries from the river in the distance.

"It's his voice, hehe, will your heart ache too?" With an unknown mood, Uchiha Nagisa turned his gradually recovering eyesight to the surface of the river where the crying faded away.

The bright sunshine is falling wantonly on the surface of the river, coupled with the two people hugging and kissing in the middle of the river, embellishing it like a poetic picture scroll.

However, this beautiful scene seemed like a scene of hell to the girl in the shadows.

The sprouting when she was young, the lovesickness when she was a girl, all shattered with the scene in front of her.

At this moment, the girl's heart fell into the abyss.

"It shouldn't be like this, Kyousuke. It should be mine. Something must have gone wrong."

"Strange, why am I here, who is that man in front?"

"where is this"

"I, I'm getting out of here"

What revenge, what search for the truth, these are no longer important to the girl, she just wants to escape here as soon as possible.

escape from this hell
Escape from this, false reality.

At this time, on the river, the two people under the sunlight were still so gorgeous.
