Naruto Sword III - Konoba Sword Princess

The dim light in the room affected vision very much, and a small figure was huddled under the quilt on the tatami mat, moving restlessly.

After an unknown amount of time, the person inside the quilt finally threw off the quilt, then sat up, inserted his fingers into his hair, and tightly grasped the long hair on his head.

The face behind Liu Yang's hair is not good-looking, her face is pale, and she has lost the rosyness that represented health in the past. There are two big dark circles under her eyes and the bloodshot whites of her eyes, she looks lifeless.

She opened her mouth wide and breathed desperately, as if an invisible hand had grabbed her throat, leaving her in a state of extreme hypoxia.

here we go again……

Ever since the strange assailant and illusion encountered in the alley that day, Liu Yang has been in an extremely abnormal state.

It was like a strange circle that surrounded her tightly, and her mind was full of those words that Liu Fenggu said in the illusion all day long.

Ah Yang, the blade is exposed, but where is your sheath?

What is her sheath, exactly?

Liu Yang turned to look at the Aoshuang Knife which was put aside. The black gold scabbard perfectly wrapped the three knives of different sizes, and they fit perfectly without any flaws at all.

But, not her sheath.

Taking the words in the illusion as truth is a bit funny to say, but Liu Yang has a strong intuition that this sentence is not false.

So because of a sentence in the illusion, she succeeded and drove herself crazy.

She staggered to open the door, and the dazzling sunlight outside caused her to subconsciously raise her hand to block it, but after getting used to it, the painful sour feeling ran over her eyes like a tide .

"Well……"

Liu Yang covered her eyes in some pain, but still walked into the sunlight step by step, because the messy black hair that the master didn't take care of was blown even more messy by the wind, and it lost its former luster when it was hung on his shoulders.

Where's her sheath?

Liu Yang opened her eyes in a daze and looked around, looking around, because her brain throbbed and hurt because of long-term insomnia and not getting a good rest, but she didn't have time to worry about it.

So sad……

Liu Yang staggered to the side of the stone table and sat down, lying on the stone table with her face pressed against the cold stone slab, clearing her chaotic mind for a moment.

After a while, there was a laugh like a neurotic.

She never knew that she was still such a curious and persistent person in her bones.

About the sheath, she had heard from Liu Fenggu before.If every disciple of the Overlord Saber is compared to a sword, then the disciples who have just started are the embryos of the sword. It is not yet known what kind of weapon they can forge; A good sharp edge must come out sharp.

And the real masters of swordsmen all have sheaths that can restrain their sharpness.

Rigidity is easy to break, and there must be a little softness in order to combine rigidity and softness.

This scabbard that can control oneself may be family affection, friendship, love, and so on.

For example, the sheath of Liu Fenggu is Aunt Gongsun, the sheath of the righteous brother Liu Jingtao, and the second righteous brother Liu Fuyun who went to the Mingjiao to be the left protector is the late righteous sister Liu Xi, and the sheath of the third righteous brother Liu Jinghai is Tang Shuyan and righteous sister Liu Although Xi is not a top expert, her sheath is Ye Wei, the third owner of Hidden Sword Villa...

For Liu Yang who kept dying prematurely, she didn't think she needed a sheath at first, who knows how old she can live in this life?She doesn't know how much time she has left.

But Liu Fenggu's words in the illusion made her care about the sheath inexplicably.

It's just because she suddenly felt that the three worlds together have lived scattered for decades, and now she can't find anyone who can make her restrain her edge. From another point of view, isn't it also a kind of sadness?

And this time, if she couldn't find her sheath in time, she might die earlier than the previous two times.

So, the unwillingness to die prematurely that had been well hidden in her heart for two lifetimes finally burst out!

Liu Yang raised his hand to cover his face, and closed his eyes wearily.

She couldn't think about it anymore, the more she thought about it, the more she would feel world-weary, and she couldn't help but kill herself.

At the same time, Liu Yang was deeply afraid of the person who set up the illusion that day.

Obviously there was nothing going on in the illusion at the time, but she never expected that after she came out, everything that happened in the illusion would make her unable to bear the demons.

With such influence, it is simply too easy to kill people invisible.

But... don't let her know who did it, or she will make this person pay a price she will never forget!

A trace of scarlet flashed in his eyes, and Liu Yang was instantly surrounded by hostility.

Struggling to keep a trace of clarity in his mind, Liu Yang strode into the bathroom, tidied himself up against the low pressure all over his body, and then dragged himself out with the Aoshuang knife on his back.

In her current state, she didn't have the heart to cook at all. She was afraid that if she couldn't think about it, she would just turn on the gas and die with herself.

"Yang?"

Not long after leaving the house, a hand was placed directly on Liu Yang's shoulder, Liu Yang trembled all over, turned to look at the person who came, but found that it was Hatake Chiyo.

Liu Yang was thinking in a chaotic mind how long she hadn't seen Chiyo Hatake, but found that she could hardly remember, so she pulled the corner of her lips at Chiyo Hatake and said with a smile:

"Teacher Chiyo."

"How did you become like this?"

Hatake Chiyo looked at Liu Yang, who hadn't appeared for a week, with worried eyes, and was very shocked by her disfigured appearance.

Seeing that those eyes that were originally very agile were now cloudy, she finally realized something was wrong, and before Liu Yang could answer, she dragged Liu Yang to Konoha Hospital.

"Don't say anything, follow me to the hospital to find Tsunade-sama."

"Mr. Chiyo, wait."

Seeing Hatake Chiyo's anxious look, Liu Yang hurriedly stretched out his hand to grab Hatake Chiyo's wrist, and said in his mouth.

"It's useless to find Master Tsunade. If I'm not mistaken, no one can save me except myself."

"..."

Hatake Chiyo stopped, turned to look at Liu Yang seriously, and the next second, the two of them disappeared on the street of Konoha.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

It was the No. [-] training ground, which was inaccessible again, Hatake Chiyo let go of Liu Yang, and then asked.

Obviously she was fine when she first returned to Konoha a week ago, although Liu Yang didn't show up after that, she was a little strange, but she didn't worry much after all.

No one knows this little monster better than her. Although she seems to have only the chakra level of an ordinary jounin, her combat power is definitely not inferior to that of the first shadow class. Even she has no confidence in defeating Liu Yang.

But I didn't expect that Liu Yang would become like this after not seeing her for a week, how could she not be surprised?

Liu Yang didn't hide anything from Chiyo Hatake, and directly told Chiyo Hatake that he was attacked the day he returned to Konoha.

She was attacked in Konoha Village, which in itself is a very serious matter.Whether this was done by Konoha's enemies or the power behind Konoha's dark side is hard to say, but no matter how you look at it, Liu Yang is not prepared to cover up the news.

She is not so arrogant that she thinks she is invincible. From the current point of view, Hatake Chiyo is a good ally, not to mention she is also a very serious and responsible teacher.

Of course, she covered up Liu Fenggu and Itachi that appeared in the illusion.

"Then what's going on with you now? Didn't you say that you have seriously injured that person and destroyed the illusion?" Hatake Chiyo looked at Liu Yang puzzled, if Liu Yang really succeeded in breaking the illusion, then How did it become like this?

"Although the illusion was broken, it left a demon in my heart."

As Liu Yang said, he blinked his bloodshot eyes, trying hard to get rid of the astringency in his eyes, but he didn't succeed.In the end, she simply sat on the ground and closed her eyes, enduring the splitting headache.

"How could this be?"

Hatake Chiyo was horrified, and then looked at Liu Yang with complicated eyes.

Demons are more serious to those who practice swords than ordinary ninjas. If ordinary ninjas have demons, they may only be full of escape from a certain field, just like Tsunade. She is afraid of blood, and blood is her. demons.

But they are different, if they have inner demons, at least they will no longer be able to pick up the knife in their hands, and at worst they will die by their own knife in the end.

Liu Yang is a person who loves knives, and she is so stunning at such a young age. Whether she can't hold a knives or dies by her own knives, it's a pity for her.

"Maybe I have too much reconciliation."

Liu Yang quietly stared not far away, even though she was already too irritable to look at the scenery, she still forced her eyes to stay on those beautiful flowers and trees.

Not reconciled to dying so early twice in a row, not reconciled to having nothing to do with everything before, not reconciled... Maybe there will never be a person who will really accompany her to go on.

Some things, even if they look calm like a mountain, can't hide the turbulent waves below.

"...What is your inner demon?"

Hatake Chiyo sat beside Liu Yang, turned her head, looked at her and asked.Liu Yang turned his head, faced Hatake Chiyo and suddenly laughed:

"Maybe it's Chiyo-sensei's true face. We've known each other for so long, but I haven't seen what Chiyo-sensei looks like yet."

"...Speak seriously!"

"Alone." Liu Yang lowered his eyes and lowered his voice. "A person I don't know who it is, a person... who can make me restrain my edge."

A sheath that can contain all her emotions and make her give her all.

"what can I do for you?"

Hatake Chiyo looked at her haggard disciple, and it would be a lie if she said she didn't feel sorry for her, so she spoke up, although she wasn't sure how much she could help Liu Yang.

"Mr. Chiyo, if you want to help me..." Liu Yang raised his eyes to look at Chiyo Hatake, and there was finally a gleam of clarity in his bloodshot and cloudy eyes.

"Then help me leave Konoha, although I don't know if I can find it, but I want... to find this person."

As long as she finds her sheath, she will lose her obsession, and by that time, her inner demon will naturally be gone.

"Okay, I will fight with the third generation to let you leave Konoha."

Reaching out and gently placing her hand on the top of Liu Yang's hair, and then slowly rubbing it, Hatake Chiyo nodded in response, thinking about how to get Sandai to let her go.

"Mr. Chiyo, in my current situation, I don't know if I will meet again after leaving Konoha. Maybe the teacher will grant me a wish and let me see the teacher's true face."

"..."
