Konoha starts with a young bird

Chapter 119 Roots!Not Anbe!
laugh!
Water and fire converged, and countless water vapor filled the surroundings for a while.

Sa!
The man in black who was jumping backwards suddenly heard a bird song.The body has not had time to react.

He saw a slender ninja knife attacking his chest.

boom!
Zhou Lai suddenly saw a pair of Sharingan from the eyes under the mask of the other party, and felt his head shake the next moment, and the surrounding environment began to be shrouded in blood mist little by little.

But then, under the shocked eyes of the other party, the blood mist in Zhou Lai's sight instantly disintegrated and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

But taking advantage of this little effort, the man in black instantly escaped from the range of Zhou Lai's ninja knife.The body rose and fell several times in a row, jumped onto a branch and watched Zhou Lai below vigilantly.

"Uchiha!"

Zhou Lai stared at the man in black squatting on the tree in a vigilant posture.The voice is a little muffled.At this moment, he has already prepared for the best and the worst, and is also ready to keep him here.

Although both Konoha and Uchiha are well aware of some things, in the absence of really convincing evidence, everything is hidden in the dark.

"I am Anbe!"

Just when Zhou Lai was about to attack, the other party suddenly spoke.

Zhou Lai looked at each other in surprise.

"Uchiha, Anbe!"

Looking up at the man in black in front of him carefully, Zhou Lai already had an accurate guess in his heart about the identity of this man.

This is the first time he has met Uchiha Itachi face to face since he came to this world. Although the current atmosphere is a bit weird, Zhou Lai's heart is not as calm as it appears on the surface.

He had a strange emotion towards Itachi Uchiha in his previous life, no, it should be said that most Naruto fans would have a strange emotion towards Itachi Uchiha, this emotion is called admiration!

A child who can think at a movie-level level before the age of ten, coupled with his strength beyond the reach of ordinary people, he did something that ordinary people can hardly understand in his life when he was only 13 years old.

A child who loves sweets the most suffers all his life.He has been chasing love all his life, but he is a man exiled by love until his death.

"All the ninjas sent by the root have died in the hands of the Uchiha guards. At present, the dissatisfaction among the Uchiha's high-level Konoha has reached a new height again. I hope you can inform the third generation of the situation as soon as possible. I hope he can stop it. Danzo's further actions, buy me some time."

Itachi's voice sounded again, and he glanced at Kakashi's direction, staring at Zhou Lai's eyes.

He is still wondering why the other party can unlock his illusion in an instant.Although it is not a particularly top-notch method for him, he clearly knows the power of the illusion just now.

More importantly, he just felt a very familiar feeling from the other person's eyes, although it is not particularly clear what it is now.

But his intuition told him that this person was dangerous!

"I don't think the Uchiha would be immune to Root's actions."

Respect is respect, but some things still need to be clearly distinguished.Zhou Lai's eyes under the mask narrowed slightly. Although the other party's tone was very sincere, Zhou Lai still expressed doubts about the death of Root.

"I already understand your matter, and I will inform the third generation as soon as possible. But please also keep our tracks a secret from Uchiha."

Zhou Lai, who knows Uchiha Itachi's feelings for the village, will not waste time on a group of unrelated root ninjas. He just reminded Uchiha Itachi's reason is too far-fetched.

"I am Anbe, these things are my responsibility!"

Itachi put one hand on his chest and nodded slightly towards Zhou Lai.

"Roots! Not Anbu!"

Zhou Lai stared at Itachi Uchiha and reminded him word by word, retreating step by step.

Itachi looked strangely at the ninja who disappeared from his eyes.He felt that this person was a little vague about his emotions.

Shaking his head, putting aside the unrealistic feelings in his mind, his body flickered and disappeared from the spot.There are many things about him, such as the pile of corpses, and little Sasuke.
……

……

"Did you hear it just now?"

Zhou Lai returned to the place where he was just now, took out Kunai and lightly carved something on the bark beside him.The voice floated towards a corner behind him if there was no sound.

"Understood!" Kakashi's voice came from behind.

"What do you think!"

"His name is Uchiha Itachi, and he performed missions with me when I was in Anbu before. He is very strong, but he was dropped to the root by Danzo later."

"I know this."

Zhou Lai frowned.He didn't want to hear Kakashi say this.But he could feel that the other party was deliberately changing the subject.

"I don't know much about the root ninja, but I still have confidence in him."

"But he is now standing at the point of choice between the family and the village. If it were you, would you betray the family for the sake of the village, or give up the village for the sake of the family?"

The air was silent for a while.

Zhou Lai didn't look at Kakashi's expression, still holding something engraved on the lightly trunk of Kunai with one hand.Although he can't see it.

"I have no family! I don't know!"

After a long time, Kakashi said slowly.

"is it?"

Zhou Lai finally stopped what he was doing at this moment, looked at the "work of art" in front of him and nodded in satisfaction.

Turning his head and looking at Kakashi who was hiding in the darkness behind him with a meaningful look, he got up and left the place.

Kakashi looked at the thing carved on the tree, and froze for a while, his pupils trembling.From above he saw the shadow of White Fang, the weapon he had dared not take lightly until now.

This is a knife, a ninja knife.A ninja sword that pierces the ground from top to bottom.

But the blunt double blades opened up the past events that he didn't want to recall in the bottom of his heart.

"Between the interests of the village and friendship, your father chose friendship, but ended up apologizing with death. Between the village and the family, what do you think he would choose?"

Zhou Lai looked back at Kakashi who was stunned.

"There are some things that you have to choose to accept after all. Pressing them deep in your heart will only make him take root deeper and deeper. Try to accept him. No matter what the choice is, I believe they will be very pleased."

Kakashi was still squatting looking at the ninja knife on the tree trunk.It wasn't until Zhou Lai walked away that he was completely relieved.

After a long time, he let out a breath slowly.He got up and cast a glance at the calm forest behind him, got up and was about to rush towards the direction Zhou Lai left.

Suddenly, a sentence appeared in his mind again.

"No matter what the choice is, I believe they will be very pleased."

"them?!!!"

The closed Sharingan suddenly opened wide, and looked at Ninja Sword behind him again, and a burst of cold sweat broke out on his back.
