Ninja World: Winter Foolish Game

"Uchiha Satsuki...?"

"…Um."

"..."

The two of them seemed a little silent for a while, but in the end, Mikoto was the first to speak up to break the silent scene.

He and Sasuki started chatting here and there, trying to find out information about her without leaving any trace. However, the more they got to know each other, the deeper the feeling of intimacy became.

"Sasuki, you...are not an Uchiha, or rather not the current Uchiha."

Mikoto looked at the girl in front of her with slightly complicated eyes. She was basically sure of the connection between the person in front of her and her.

Words can deceive, looks can deceive, and even feelings can deceive, but the intimacy that comes from blood cannot be faked.

For a moment, she herself was in a state of confusion.

"..."

As early as when Mikoto was chatting with her, Satsuki had already discovered Mikoto's thoughts, but she just didn't want to expose them.

In other words, in Sasuki's heart, she was also expecting her to discover something.

"What would you think if I said yes?"

"..."

Mikoto and Sasuki looked at each other with crystal eyes, obviously they had never seen each other before, and it was obviously their first time meeting them.

But she saw a familiar look in these eyes, which made her feel inexplicably distressed. Her tone couldn't help but become much gentler, and she said slowly: "I don't think much about it, I just want to know how you have been these past years. ?”

Zuo Yue's ice-grey eyes were slightly startled, and her expression became a little gloomy.

It's like this again...why such a gentle greeting, why...use the same tone as hers.

Although her expression remained unchanged, she clenched her back teeth and finally pretended to be calm as she summoned the fools to explain the causes and consequences of founding the country and coming into contact with dragon veins.

Mikoto's expression also gradually showed a look of love and affection along with Sasuki's words. Although Sasuke didn't say much about the hardships involved and just mentioned it in an understatement, how could she not realize the humiliation and sacrifice involved? suffering.

"It's such a hard process..."

When he came to Zuo Yue's side, he couldn't help but hold her in his arms, gently caressing her hair, his eyes filled with excitement, and whispered softly: "Thank you so much for your hard work."

"I……"

Zuoyue was almost broken down by her sudden tenderness and caring words...

"I... don't have to work hard. I have... a group of loyal subordinates and people who support me..."

"..."

I didn’t say anything about myself…

Mikoto gently stroked her back without making a sound, but held her hand tighter.

After a long silence, Zuo Yue said in a low voice: "I...can I?"

The cold voice had a slight tremor at this time, as if he was trying to catch something, but he didn't dare to get close.

"...Welcome home, Sasuke."

"...Well, I'm back."

Her body was trembling slightly, and a pair of slender jade hands grasped Mikoto's waist tightly, fearing that the next moment would be like a dream and disappear when she woke up.

After an unknown amount of time, her body no longer trembled, but her hand did not let go. Mikoto let her hold her, comforting her, and hummed a nursery rhyme.

clatter……

An extremely limited and subtle sound of footsteps made Mikoto's hand pause slightly, and then she continued to comfort her, but the nursery rhyme had stopped.

He said to the figure outside the door: "Why don't you come and meet her?"

"...You believe her so easily?"

A pair of scarlet sharingan eyes, shrouded in shadow, looked extremely strange, but there was no malice in the eyes, but an inexplicable emotion.

"My own children can still recognize them."

As if she was afraid of disturbing the beauty in her arms, Mikoto's tone was very gentle, but the determination contained in it could not be ignored.

At this time, her tone changed, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, and she said amusingly: "Isn't it the same for you? Fugaku."

"That feeling of being connected by blood."

"..."

The Sharingan figure walked out of the shadows, a serious-looking man, none other than Uchiha Fugaku.

I saw his Sharingan transform into a kaleidoscope, and then close from the kaleidoscope.

Although he didn't say anything, he acquiesced to Mikoto's words.

However, the next moment he said very forcefully: "She shouldn't be here."

An inexplicable word made Mikoto stop completely, and the expression on her face instantly became extremely calm and even sad.

"Is there really no way?"

"...Konoha, or the entire ninja world, no longer allows Uchiha to exist."

As the conflict between Uchiha and Konoha becomes more and more intense, more and more members of the clan want a coup, and it has now become an unchangeable fact.

Fugaku also understood that a war between Uchiha and Konoha would inevitably lead to a lose-lose situation, and the consequences would be either annihilation of the clan or capture by other ninja villages.

As for letting Uchiha live softly to Konoha?Not to mention that Uchiha's proud character would not give in easily. Even if he did survive, he would only survive for a few more years at most.

Konoha and Uchiha have deep grudges, and those high-level officials deliberately want to provoke conflicts between Uchiha. This is what he said, and Konoha cannot tolerate Uchiha at all.

Now, the only way to achieve the best outcome is to let Uchiha be destroyed in the hands of his own people, to reach a deal with Konoha, and to leave the only seedling behind.

The person who bears this sin was originally Fugaku, but in the end he became...

"But, he is still a child!"

Obviously, Mikoto is also aware of the stakes involved, but she is not afraid of death. She is just sad that she cannot watch her child grow up, and she is even more sad that her child will have to bear all this.

"..."

Looking at Mikoto with tears in her eyes, Fugaku remained silent. Looking at his expression, she also understood that nothing could be changed.

Then Mikoto gently stroked Sasuke's head, looked at the beauty in her arms with some regret, and said softly: "Find a way to send her away from Konoha, Sasuke...is innocent."

"Is her name Sasuke? Does she have anything to do with Sasuke?"

"Perhaps, our second child might have been a girl..."

Mikoto said as if jokingly, she had always wanted a daughter, but unfortunately she didn't live up to it, both children were boys.

Now she finally has such an old daughter. Although she can only get along with her for such a few hours, she is already very satisfied.

"Daughter..."

Fugaku had a straight face, but it could be seen from his eyes that he also wanted to talk to this daughter whom he had met for the first time. Although he was a little regretful, he would not say much.
