After eating the noodles, Iruka drove Naruto home on the pretext of doing homework, and then took Anri to buy some necessities and ninja tools, and walked around to get familiar with Konoha.

"Hey, Iruka." Suddenly someone tapped Iruka on the shoulder from behind, "Who is this kid?"

"Ah, it's Kouta." Iruka scratched his head, "This is Anri, I've been taking care of her recently, what's going on with your outfit?"

Kouta smiled and patted the black vest on his body, and said with a rather proud smile: "This is the uniform of the police force."

"Isn't the police force composed of members of the Uchiha clan?"

"Didn't the Uchiha exterminate the clan? The advisory group and the Sandaime-sama selected some people to reorganize the police force, and I happened to be selected." Kouta pointed to the building behind him, "Well, look, the police force building The Uchiha clan emblems were removed and replaced with the Konoha logo."

Anri raised her eyes and clenched her fists secretly. She calmed her breathing gently, forced a sunny smile, pulled the corner of Iruka's clothes, and asked innocently: "Brother Iruka, What is the advisory board?”

Hearing this, Kota knelt down, touched Anri's head and replied: "The advisory group is composed of two adults, Mito Kabuto and Koharu Kaden, who are responsible for assisting the Hokage in making decisions and managing the village. They are very respected people in the village. .”

"Really?" Anri raised her head and looked at Iruka.

Iruka smiled and nodded.

"That's it." Anri lowered her head and smiled softly. Suddenly, she felt that the peace around her was dazzling. Suddenly, she seemed to see her brother who had just joined the police force and was showing off in front of her in uniform.

"Rina, look, brother, does he look handsome in this outfit?" Yuuto turned around, put his hands on his hips, and asked proudly.

Rina gave a thumbs up and nodded: "Super handsome."

Shota slapped Yuuto on the head, "You kid, stop being so cool. The police force is the proud symbol of our Uchiha clan. We must shoulder the responsibility of being a member of the police force and protect Konoha." , don’t embarrass our family and the Uchiha clan.”

Yuuto nodded solemnly, patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely shoulder my responsibility and protect this village even if I risk my life."

"What's wrong, Anri? Are you tired?" Iruka asked concerned.

Anri was startled and was brought back to reality from her memories. She smiled reluctantly: "Maybe a little."

Iruka looked at the sky and said, "It's getting late. I'll take you home."

Anri nodded.

After sending Iruka away, closing the door, and everything returned to darkness, Anri slowly sat down against the door with her head in her arms, and finally cried uncontrollably.

"The top management of Konoha has issued an order to exterminate the Uchiha clan."

"I will protect this village even if I risk my life!"

why?

"Itachi betrayed the Uchiha clan and accepted the order of Danzo and the advisory group to exterminate the clan."

"The two adults on the advisory board are very respectable people."

why?

"The police force is a symbol of pride for our Uchiha clan."

"Here, look, the Uchiha clan's emblem has been removed from the police building and replaced with Konoha's logo."

Why? Why did Konoha's top brass issue such a cruel order?

Why? Why can the murderer who destroyed my family be so high and respected?

Why? Why is it that only a few dozen days have passed since the murder, and Konoha can't wait to erase all traces of my Uchiha clan?

I don't understand! I do not accept! Anri tightened her grip on the pendant on her chest.

"Don't think about revenge, grow up safely and healthily, and be a kind and upright person."

Sorry, mother, I can't--

It’s really hard to let go of this intention, and it’s really hard to get rid of this hatred!

"If you want to become a ninja one day and need strength, just pour chakra into it and open it."

"I want to know the truth of all this, and I want to make Itachi Uchiha, Danzo Shimura, Mito Kadeni, and Koharu Tanzania pay with their blood!" Anri gritted her teeth and carefully injected chakra into the pendant.

A burst of white light flashed. Anri looked around and saw that she was in a void. Suddenly, she felt a cold hand touching her cheek. She turned her head and looked into Tomoko's gentle eyes.

"You've lost weight." Tomoko touched Rina's head lovingly.

Rina was stunned, and her eyes suddenly turned red. She wanted to rush up and hug her mother tightly, but she didn't dare to reach out, fearing that everything in front of her was just a dream. She opened and closed her mouth several times, and finally managed to spit out two words: "... …Mother."

Tomoko responded gently: "Rina, I'm here."

Rina finally couldn't control herself and hugged Tomoko tightly, tears welling up in her eyes, "It's great, mom, you're still alive."

Tomoko smiled and shook her head, and slowly pushed Rina away, "I'm sorry, Rina, I'm dead, and what's left here is just a little bit of my remaining chakra."

Rina let go of her hand, lowered her head and chuckled self-deprecatingly, "That's it."

"I'm sorry Rina, I really want to talk to you more, but I don't have much time. There are some things that must be explained quickly."

Rina nodded, sniffed, and looked up into Tomoko's eyes.

Tomoko smiled happily, "First of all, about the Sharingan. You should know that there is a Mangekyo Sharingan on top of the Three Magatama Sharingan. Using the Mangekyo Sharingan is extremely burdensome, and you will go blind if you overuse it. , then transplanting the Mangekyō Sharingan of a loved one can fuse the pupil power of the two pairs of eyes and evolve into the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan."

Tomoko paused, a little disappointed, "But only extremely painful emotions can stimulate the opening of the Mangekyo Sharingan. If possible, I hope you will never open the Mangekyo Sharingan."

"This notebook records all my research on the Sharingan. Please keep it." As she said that, Tomoko put a notebook into Rina's hand. "You still remember the long knife I gave you last, right?"

Rina nodded.

"My father taught me a sword skill called Yangyan style when I was a child. It is extremely difficult to master and extremely dangerous and can easily backfire on oneself. Therefore, to this day, I am the only one who can master it."

"This kind of sword skill will produce extremely hot flames when you swing the sword. When you practice to a certain level, the flame temperature can even be as hot as the sun. Only swords cast with special casting methods can withstand it. I will give it to you and your brother We both made a sword, but later you said you didn’t want to be a ninja and wanted to be a painter who traveled around the world, so I kept the one that belonged to you.”

Tomoko smiled slightly and sighed: "I really want to teach you sword skills in person, but it's a pity that I don't have the chance. This notebook records the sword skills of Yang Yan style and the method of making swords. The writing is quite obscure, but it is also You can only study it yourself, and this notebook contains some miscellaneous things over the years, and there is nothing important in it, but I thought about it and decided to give it to you."

Tomoko looked into Rina's eyes and smiled knowingly: "You seem to have a question to ask me."

Rina bit her lower lip: "Mom, I want to know the truth about the genocide. Why did the top management of Konoha issue the order to annihilate the Uchiha clan?"

Tomoko sighed and stroked the side of Rina's face lovingly: "You are a smart child. Even if I don't tell you, you will definitely find out the truth by yourself in the future."

"Since the founding of Konoha, the village has been fearful of the Uchiha clan because the Sharingan has the power to control tailed beasts. The Nine-Tails out-of-control incident seven years ago has made Konoha's senior officials suspicious of Uchiha to the extreme. , and thereby completely exclude the Uchiha clan from the center of power in Konoha."

"In the next few years, although I no longer work as a ninja, I can probably guess what happened. It was just the village's repeated suppression and weakening of the Uchiha clan. Rina, do you think our clan is so arrogant? , will you be willing to do this?"

Rina recalled the past appearance of her clan members and shook her head.

"So the Uchiha clan finally planned to launch a coup. One night last year, they must have summoned all the clan members who had opened their eyes to hold a meeting to discuss the matter. Yuuto also participated, but when he came back, he might be afraid that we would be worried. That's right. I didn't mention it, but you also know that your brother can't hide things at all, so I found out about it, but I was already very ill at that time and couldn't do anything about it. Can you persuade Shota to dig a secret passage in the backyard in case of any eventuality?"

"You also know what happened next. Uchiha Itachi betrayed the Uchiha clan and chose a village over a clan. The top management of Konoha... But after thinking about it, I know it should be Danzo and the group of old immortals on the advisory board. , for the sake of peace in the village and to avoid future troubles, an order was issued to exterminate the Uchiha clan."

Rina clenched her fists: "What about the Sandaime? What is he doing?"

"The Sandaime probably acquiesced in this matter. When things have reached this point, the conflict between Uchiha and Konoha has long been irreversible, and there is probably nothing he can do." Tomoko sneered lightly, "In fact, during the past seven years, Uchiha The relationship between Bo and Konoha is not without opportunities to change, but unfortunately, Lord Sandaime is old and weak after all, so he allowed Danzo and the advisory group to suppress Uchiha."

"So now that you know all this, what choice will you make?" Tomoko asked with a smile, her body gradually becoming transparent.

Rina lowered her head and whispered: "The Uchiha clan is not innocent. The coup will definitely cause turmoil. If you are not careful, countless people will die. Konoha is not wrong. It is perfectly reasonable to abandon the clan for peace, but Uchiha There is nothing wrong with the Bo clan. If we continue to tolerate it, the Uchiha clan will definitely be eaten away and be chained up to become a useful dog in Konoha. With the pride of the Uchiha, we will never accept this kind of thing."

Tomoko smiled even wider, her brows and eyes filled with relief: "You are indeed a smart child."

Rina raised her head and looked directly at Tomoko, with two magatama lying quietly in her blood-red eyes, "But father, mother, grandma and grandpa selling pancakes on the street, and countless ordinary people who know nothing about it, their lives depend on it. Isn’t it life? Why should the Uchiha clan be this bullshit peace sacrifice?”

Her eyes were filled with blood, and she roared with excitement: "I want to avenge all the murderers for the souls of Uchiha who died tragically. Who are Danzo and the advisory group who pushed Uchiha to a dead end step by step and issued the order to exterminate Uchiha? The murderer, Itachi who personally massacred all the members of the Uchiha clan is the murderer, and the Sandaime who allowed all this to develop until there was no way around it is also the murderer!"

"I will never let them go!" she said through gritted teeth.

"Sorry, mother, I may not be able to be a kind person." She smiled miserably and lowered her head.

"Rina, you don't have to say sorry." Tomoko gently placed her index finger on Rina's lips, "I just hope you can live well, but you seem to have chosen a path that is too hard, but don't push yourself too hard, be good to yourself One point, make more friends, and then get along well with your friends. Don’t be greedy for coolness in summer, remember to wear more clothes in winter, don’t eat too many desserts, as tooth decay is easy, and..."

She seemed to still have thousands of words to tell her, but her chakra was exhausted, and all her unfinished words turned into specks of light and disappeared without a trace.

After another burst of white light, Anri returned to the quiet and dark room. She turned on the light and slowly opened the notes in her hand——

Konoha September 36, 9

Get ready to try forging your own knife.

Konoha September 36, 10

Sure enough it failed.

Konoha September 36, 11

It finally worked.

……

Konoha September 37, 6

The war between villages seems to be meaningless. The origin of all disputes is just the greed of people. Too many people have lost their lives and countless people have been displaced. But I am powerless to change all this. I don’t want to continue this meaningless battle anymore. But in order to protect the important people, I can't stop fighting.

Konoha September 40, 12

I returned to Konoha, but the war is not over yet.

Konoha September 41, 7

I gave up being a ninja and went shopping for clothes today. The guy at the tailor shop in the tribe was very interesting.

Konoha September 41, 7

It turns out his name is Shota, and he has a pretty good smile.

Konoha September 41, 8

Shota confessed to me today, and he looked so cute with his blushing face.

Konoha September 42, 11

Shiro Muzan is really troublesome to dress, but Shota looks really handsome in Haori.

Konoha September 43, 4

I'm pregnant and will be a mother soon. I'm so excited. Shota was so excited when he heard the news.

Konoha September 44, 1

It was a boy and he looked very cute. Shota and I argued for a long time and finally named him Yuuto.

……

Konoha September 50, 1

Yuuto said he wanted to become a ninja. I didn't know what to say, but in the end I made him a sword and taught him sword skills. I hope he can be safe.

Konoha September 50, 6

I'm pregnant again, Shota said I hope it's a girl.

Konoha September 51, 2

She is indeed a cute girl. Shota and I are very happy. This time we gave her a name early, called Rina.

Konoha September 53, 7

After thinking about it, I forged a knife for Rina, but if possible, I hope she never uses it.

Konoha September 54, 5

Rina said that she didn't want to be a ninja, but wanted to be a traveling painter. I was inexplicably relieved, put away the knife and sealed it in the scroll.

Konoha September 56, 2

His health has been getting worse recently, perhaps due to the root causes of his illness on the battlefield.

Konoha September 56, 4

The relationship between the clan and the village seems to be becoming increasingly tense.

Konoha September 57, 5

Things in the clan are indeed as I expected, but there is nothing I can do, forget it, let it be fate.

Konoha September 58, 3

My body is getting weaker and weaker, and the ominous premonition is getting stronger and stronger.

……

Anri looked through the notes, tears flowing down unconsciously, wetting the yellowed pages.

It wasn't until this moment that she had a real sense of everything that had happened, and she truly realized that all her dearest relatives and friends had left her, and from now on, there was no place in this vast world for her to belong to.
