Naruto: Sasuke loves to visit forums

"Is there a problem?"

After seeing who was coming, Uchiha Sasuke asked indifferently.

Then he left the door open and went back into the house, letting in Nara Shikamaru who had come to visit at night.

"I, I came to say goodbye to you."

Nara Shikamaru walked into the room, sat down in front of Sasuke, and said:

"By the way, I came to see how you are doing."

Sasuke nodded, and after a moment's silence, he raised his eyes woodenly and asked:

"Are you in such a hurry?"

"yes."

Nara Shikamaru sighed, leaned back heavily in his chair, and said casually:

"The matter concerning Shimura Danzo has finally come to an end.

"Your performance is much higher than everyone imagined.

"In this way, the new group with you and Master Jiraiya as the core has finally stabilized.

“I think there won’t be any trouble in the village in the short term.

"Then, I must also hurry up and complete my mission in the Sand Village."

After a pause, Nara Shikamaru stretched his sore neck and half-complained:

"Although it's really troublesome, I still have to give it a try."

On the other side, Uchiha Sasuke forced a smile, nodded and said:

"Then please."

Nara Shikamaru nodded, and then he looked at Sasuke, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

The room gradually fell into a sticky silence.

"so.

"Are you ok?"

Finally, Nara Shikamaru coughed lightly, breaking the long silence and asked.

"of course."

Uchiha Sasuke nodded first, but his head shook left and right unconsciously.

His lips were pressed into a straight line, and his eyes were wandering around aimlessly.

"I'm sorry about Hanabi."

Nara Shikamaru said calmly.

At the same time, he was staring intently at Sasuke's expression, trying to judge his psychological state from it.

Hearing this, Uchiha Sasuke's whole body suddenly tensed up.

His neck was stiff, his head was lowered, and he could only force out a "hmm" through his nose as a reluctant response.

"In a sense, Hanabi fought against her original fate and chose the path she approved of."

On this side, Nara Shikamaru was not going to let the other party go.

He stared at Sasuke's expression and continued calmly:

"I think, at that moment, her heart must have been calm, without any fear, only...

"What do you know?"

On the opposite side, Uchiha Sasuke suddenly raised his head and interrupted Shikamaru's words.

He looked gloomy and said coldly:

"Don't act like you know Hanabi so well. You don't even know her."

"I don't really know her."

Faced with Uchiha Sasuke's suppressed anger, Nara Shikamaru did not back down.

He still said calmly:

“But I know the Hyuga clan.

“It was a stagnant, decayed place.

"After Hyuga Hiashi made his choice.

"As the successor of the family, Hanabi can no longer see any light."

"What do you know?!

"The road is made by people. As long as you are alive, there will always be a way!"

Hearing the other party's light words, Uchiha Sasuke finally became excited.

He stood up with a bang and shouted loudly with an angry face.

His heart was once again filled with resentment and hatred towards Hinata Hanabi.

"What you call walkable, those are your methods.

"It's not hers."

Nara Shikamaru raised his head, looked calmly into Sasuke's eyes, and spoke quietly.

"."

Yes, no matter which way you go.

Neither Hinata Hanabi could avoid the tragic ending of having to choose between the two options.

After a moment of silence, Uchiha Sasuke finally sat back on the chair again and asked tiredly:

"So, what exactly do you want to say?

"Hanabi died a worthy death, is that a happy event?"

Faced with the harshness in Sasuke's tone, Nara Shikamaru remained calm.

He just said frankly:

“I need to assess the impact this has had on you.

"This concerns me personally, as well as the fate of the three major families of Pig, Deer and Butterfly."

Uchiha Sasuke stared blankly at his companion in front of him.

In my mind, I suddenly recalled the night before the war.

That night, the two of them sat opposite each other just like they did today.

In this room, we work together and show mutual loyalty.

".I thought we were friends."

Uchiha Sasuke said coldly.

I only felt an endless loneliness in my heart.

"Compared to friendship, what you need more is loyalty."

Nara Shikamaru said calmly:

"The three great families of Ino, Shika and Chou have made up their minds to follow Master Sasuke forever.

"I'm leaving soon.

"Everyone is worried about you."

The most important thing in life is to put yourself in the right position.

When there is contradiction and conflict between the identity of friend and the identity of subject.

Smart people will take the initiative to clarify things as soon as possible.

Even if you need to endure a moment of pain.

Uchiha Sasuke, who had already understood the other party's hidden meaning, felt sad when he saw Nara Shikamaru take a step back.

By this point, Sasuke had completely regained his calm demeanor.

He turned around and said proudly:

“Tell them the boat won’t stop.

"Konohagakure is about to usher in new changes, and no one will stop us.

"nobody"

"Yes."

Looking at the powerful aura emanating from Uchiha Sasuke, Nara Shikamaru nodded silently in his heart.

To myself.

Friends are indeed precious.

But what is even more rare is a wise and heroic monarch worth following.

He had to be sure of the man in front of him.

Is it worth placing all your expectations of "revenge for your father" on the other party?

"So, what do you think about the follow-up treatment of the Hyuga clan?"

On this side, Nara Shikamaru continued to ask.

However, Uchiha Sasuke's cold voice came to my ears:

“Do your own thing.

"If necessary, I will consult Mr. Nara."

Nara Shikamaru was stunned for a moment, then he smiled with relief.

He just shook his hands and saluted respectfully towards Uchiha Sasuke.

He said:

"Then I will take my leave first.

"Sasuke-sama, take care."

Uchiha Sasuke did not answer. He just turned his back and looked coldly at the night sky outside the window.

He knew that he had lost this friend forever.

Nara Shikamaru sacrificed the bond between the two of them and sent a clear message to Uchiha Sasuke -

Why would you care about the troubles of this world when you have great ambitions? —

After returning home, Yamanaka Inoichi and Akimichi Choza were still waiting at the Nara residence, just like that day.

After a brief conversation, the two finally felt reassured and left with satisfaction.

The next day, Nara Shikamaru made arrangements for the clan and entrusted all matters to Nara Suzaku.

Then he immediately stood up and embarked on the journey to the Sand Village.

In the following days, the Hokage's house where Uchiha Sasuke was staying gradually became lively.

The first to visit were the mother and son Inuzuka Tsumugi and Inuzuka Kiba.

After entering the room, the two looked left and right, feeling uneasy.

Inuzuka Kiba looked awkward and felt that the relationship between him and Sasuke had become much more distant.

But I tried hard to appear natural, and just felt uncomfortable all over.

On the other hand, Inuzuka Tsumugi wanted to say something several times but stopped himself, but in the end, he failed to say a single word of what he wanted to say.

In the end, he just left some supplements and said some polite words of visit.

Among them, the only thing worth recording is this little episode.

“Are those two kids feeling better now?

"He's really crazy."

Inuzuka Tsume asked with a worried look on his face.

"Ah."

Uchiha Sasuke nodded kindly.

After a pause, he finally added:

"Thanks to you for taking action in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

"Where is it?"

Inuzuka Tsume immediately showed an expression of being flattered. She was flustered for a while, then said solemnly:

"We are all ninjas of Konoha. This matter has escalated to this extent, which is beyond our expectations.

"Rizu, he broke the rules first, and his current fate is indeed his own fault."

"Ah."

Uchiha Sasuke did not comment, and the topic ended again.

After saying goodbye, on the way back, Inuzuka Kiba, who had hardly spoken the entire time, finally spoke to himself:

“Well, I’m afraid I really don’t have a chance to become the Hokage this time.

"Akamaru, we're going to practice the latest ninjutsu soon!

"Maybe after Sasuke, the next man to become Hokage will be me!"

"Wang!"

Akamaru, who had grown into a big dog, shouted excitedly.

On the side, looking at his innocent and lovely son, Inuzuka Tsume couldn't help but smile with relief.

The visit of the Aburame clan took place on a clear evening.

"Sasuke.

“I already know everything that happened at that time.

"You saved my life.

"I will never forget this."

Sitting on the sofa in the Hokage's house, Aburame Shino was still as calm as ever.

At this moment, he was holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, and spoke seriously to Uchiha Sasuke in his unique rhythm of speech.

"I hope you're okay."

Uchiha Sasuke smiled slightly, paused, then turned to look at Aburame Shiwei beside him and said:

“However, the one who saved your life was your father, Senior Zhiwei.

"I'm just going with the flow."

Aside, Aburame Shino was thinking seriously about Sasuke's words.

Then he nodded solemnly and began to talk in a long-winded manner:

"The whole thing was caused by the ambition and madness of Shimura Danzo that gradually got out of control.

"Fortunately, from now on, we no longer have to face such anxiety."

Faced with these remarks, Sasuke just lowered his head and drank his tea silently.

On the side, Shino's heart sank, and he said sadly:

"Is he being ignored again?"

"cough."

On the side, Aburame Shiwei finally made up his mind, only to hear him mention another matter.

This is also the biggest reason for his visit this time:

"Sasuke-sama.

“The sinner Aburame Togen is currently confined in my home.

"Regarding what happens to this person, I leave it to you, Lord Sasuke!"

On the side, Aburame Shino's expression froze.

But in the end he didn't say anything, just lowered his head and drank tea in silence.

"Rather, please ask Lady Tsunade for instructions."

Uchiha Sasuke said calmly.

Then looking at the two people in front of him, each of them still looked uneasy, Sasuke had to add:

“That ninja named Togen is extremely capable and loyal.

"It's just that I was bewitched by Shimura Danzo.

“Today, the Root Organization has been completely disbanded.

"I have already discussed this with Lady Tsunade. No investigation will be conducted on any ninjas from the Root Organization.

"Aburame Tone, as an elite ninja of the former Root organization, is naturally among them.

"If you can be used by Konoha, it will certainly be a happy event.

"If not, then let him be."

Hearing this, Aburame Shino couldn't help but relax, and he turned his head and said:

"Father, I told you a long time ago.

"My companion, Uchiha Sasuke, is definitely not that narrow-minded ninja."

"I will follow Lord Sasuke's arrangements."

On this side, Aburame Zhiwei stood up and said respectfully, then prepared to say goodbye and leave.

“So, I was ignored again?”

On the side, Aburame Shino lowered her head silently.

Endless internal friction began in my heart once again.

Compared to the worries of the two family heads mentioned above, the subsequent visits of Yamanaka Inoichi and Akimichi Choza seemed more like a routine arrangement.

Thanks to Nara Shikamaru's early preparations.

The two of them undoubtedly felt much more confident during this visit than others.

This kind of thing is very familiar to the patriarchs of the two major families.

It's nothing more than moving from one hilltop to another.

Compared to other families, they didn't even bring their children to the front of the stage this time.

To bring the so-called relationship closer.

The content of the conversations between the two and Uchiha Sasuke were all very practical and specific business.

Report work and request instructions.

City defense, barrier, intelligence, perception.

Regarding these, Uchiha Sasuke just listened and asked more questions.

Focus on understanding and grasping the situation, and do not express any opinions proactively.

However, it is worth mentioning that when he was about to leave, Yamanaka Inoichi's expression seemed a little hesitant.

"Anything else?"

The handling of the specific incident made Uchiha Sasuke feel a little better.

At this moment, he just felt refreshed and asked.

"Yes

"About the Hyuga clan."

Yamanaka Inoichi said cautiously.

"Huh? What's the matter?"

Hearing this, Uchiha Sasuke's face darkened and he asked in a cold voice.

"Is such that."

Yamanaka Inoichi immediately adopted a businesslike attitude and reported:

“These days, the Hyuga clan has chosen a new clan leader.

"His name is Hyuga Shigao, and he is the eldest son of a clan elder.

“This decision was still made jointly by the elders of the Hyuga clan.

"Now, within the Hyuga clan, among the middle-aged generation, this person's prestige is indeed the highest."

"clear."

This information is, of course, very useful.

Uchiha Sasuke nodded and said nothing.

"And that's it."

Without waiting for Sasuke's further questions, Yamanaka Inoichi's expression became more and more nervous.

He just gritted his teeth and continued:

“Yesterday, Hyuga Seiko found me.

"I hope I can come and visit Master Sasuke."

"not see."

Uchiha Sasuke was very straightforward and replied immediately.

Yamanaka Haiyi's expression changed and he suddenly felt something was wrong.

Afraid that his meddling would anger the other party.

At this time, he was somewhat unsure about the temper of this new leader.

"You did very well."

Uchiha Sasuke, who noticed the other party's emotions, gradually softened his voice and said calmly:

"Keep an eye on them and report to me any subsequent developments."

"Yes!"

After a pause, Yamanaka Inoichi, feeling relieved, added:

“The entire Hyuga clan has been very quiet these days.

"Whether it's the main family or the branch family, there are no longer any Hyuga clan ninjas to be seen on the streets of the village.

"The daily procurement of supplies is also entrusted to civilians to help complete."

"Humph."

Uchiha Sasuke sneered and did not comment.

"That"

Yamanaka Haiyi carefully observed Sasuke's expression and spoke cautiously:

"Regarding that Ri Xiang Shigao, do you need me to compile a copy of his file information for you to review?"
