[Hokage] One tit for another

Cutting Itachi's hair is a rare experience, and Itachi will never know. Occasionally, when I wash his hair, I can sometimes see dried blood in his hair. Those tiny blood droplets splashed on Itachi's hair roots, congealing into dark brown , glue strands of hair together.

Itachi would tidy up before coming back from a mission to see me, but he couldn't see the blood in his hair, so he thought he had covered everything perfectly.

I originally wanted to create a sunny and cheerful image for Itachi, but when I picked up the scissors, I just gently cut off the ends of his excessively long hair. After wearing the Konoha forehead guard, the hair just kept from covering the eyes.

Itachi left quickly, he was already too busy to take care of himself, and had no energy to pay attention to other things at all.

The knife that was originally expected to be given to me on my birthday was also replaced with something else, because Itachi wanted to give me the best, but the time was short, so I had to change it to something else and give it to me next year.

I don't care what Itachi gave me, so his apology can actually be omitted.

It's a rare school holiday, but the house is still empty.

I practiced alone in the back mountain, chopping the Taidao with a "swish" sound.

The setting sun is quietly sprinkled in the woods, and the shadows of the trees are staggered and swaying with the wind.

Before I knew it, I had practiced for a day, and my palms were so red and swollen from the leather on the handle of the knife, and the sweat was winding down the back of my neck, soaking my clothes.

The clothes on the back were sticking to my body wetly. I was panting, but I didn’t want to rest. I just swung the knife blindly, and split the wooden pile in front of me into four with my raised hand. , I jumped back, borrowed strength from the tree trunk beside me, drew out the kunai with my right hand, and hit the wooden blocks one by one.

Kunai pierced into the wood block, making a dull, muffled sound.

I switched to holding the sword in my right hand while volleying in the air, and the Taidao spun in the air in a dazzling pattern. When it fell, it happened to split a vertical wooden stake in two.

A series of actions were completed in an instant, and the wooden block pierced by Kunai fell to the ground with a bang.

I half squatted on the ground, the Taidao in my hand trembled and buzzed.

Restless...

I retracted the knife, closed my eyes, and took a deep breath.

Tai Dao is sharp and light, and being able to cut things apart not only relies on strong strength, but also requires skill.I should have chopped cleanly, not with the blade still quivering after cutting through the stake.

This kind of mistake can only be caused by the wrong cutting angle of the Tai Dao and the slow movement, resulting in the section not being smooth enough.

There is always some inexplicable anxiety and uneasiness in my heart.

Recently, I always feel that there is something strange around me, as if there is a strange force fluctuating, as if it is testing something, or secretly monitoring the Uchiha clan.

But this feeling is different from ordinary surveillance, not like Anbu's actions.

Itachi seemed to notice it too, he obviously knew something, and just let the weirdness go his own way.

At night, my father and Itachi had another quarrel, or it was Itachi’s resistance that ignited my father’s anger again. It seemed that Itachi once again avoided the family gathering on the grounds of a mission, and my father’s roar abruptly snatched me out of my sleep. When I came out, I struggled for a while between getting up and breaking into the family secret meeting to toss the patriarch and continue to sleep, but I was still too lazy to care about their mess, turned over and went back to sleep.

I still remember that Itachi was very happy when he participated in the rally at first, because it represented his status and recognition in the clan.But up to now, he has already regarded this kind of gathering as a burden.

Itachi obviously has no mission today.

There are laws in everything in the world, even the missions of Anbu actually have internal laws, so I can know when Itachi has a mission and when it is time to come back.

I can even guess that maybe monitoring the Uchiha clan is also one of Itachi's Anbu missions.

This is not pleasant.

In fact, the little fairy Zhishui didn't seem to have any missions today.He is very good at putting on a show, he was kind to me in front of Itachi, pretending to be mature and reliable, and even said that he wanted to invite me to dinner.He is a drunkard who doesn't mean to drink!He obviously wanted to invite Itachi to eat, but he insisted on me as a cover!

And it was even more hateful when he was carrying Itachi on his back. He showed his ugly face instantly, and seized every opportunity to stuff candy into my mouth!This is to poison me to death!

Think about it, two people who didn't go on missions, one avoided the clan gathering, and the other said he wanted to invite me to dinner but didn't show up.They must be getting together and doing something insane!

Sitting on the ground and thinking wildly for a while, the anxiety in my heart never disappeared.

The setting sun was already hanging low between the two peaks, heavy, as if it was about to fall completely.The dark color unique to the setting sun dyed the sky blood red, covering the entire mountain forest.

The light gradually dimmed, and the cold wind blew by. The sweat on my body was already a little dry, but I couldn't help but shiver.

Suddenly, a burst of explosion sounded in the distant mountain forest, startling many birds.The high-pitched birdsong echoed off the ridge as if some kind of death knell had sounded as the last rays of the setting sun faded into the sky.The moon emerged from the thick clouds, it was a new moon, the long and narrow crescent hung low, and the moonlight was deserted.

I stood up and subconsciously clenched the knife in my hand.

I couldn't hold back that kind of faint anxiety anymore. The world in my eyes changed instantly, as if I opened an old film, and the dark tree shadows overlapped into my eyes. There were no stars and moons, only some fragmentary and hazy white.

I looked into the distance, the space seemed to lose its boundaries, the dense branches receded for me one after another, and through the gaps, I saw the still water.

Stop the water? !

I was startled suddenly, and the data squeezed into my field of vision like crazy. I never thought that Zhishui's strength is so strong, especially the power gathered in those eyes, which is so dazzling that it almost overwhelms the moon in the sky .

But Zhishui was very different from the past, he looked very embarrassed, and there was a winding black mark on his right eye...it was blood.

His right eye was empty, and the chakra that had lost its support had nowhere to go, scattered in that black eye socket.

Zhishui's speed was extremely fast, and he appeared in another place in the blink of an eye, and the people who were chasing him in the distance lost his track after a while.

It suddenly occurred to me that there seemed to be such a character in Hokage, Uchiha Shisui, who is more genius than Itachi, and is Itachi's senior.Later, died?

No, it would be better to say that he only appeared in later memories.The reason why I have an influence on him is that I occasionally hear people talking about his strength. It is said that he overwhelmed Itachi back then.

Zhishui will die?He still owes me a meal!

I jumped up and followed the trail left by Shishui.

The place where Zhishui is located is too far away from me. Even though I can easily see it, I actually have to climb over two mountains.There are only blurred shadows in my world, and I can't see my feet clearly.The ancient trees in the forest are intertwined and their branches are slanted, like a cage, blocking the moonlight.

I plunged into the dense forest, jumped between the branches, and ran desperately, while paying close attention to the movement of Zhishui.

Is that a ferret? !

I saw Itachi and Zhishui meeting somewhere in the forest, and I was startled. At this moment, my foot seemed to have stepped on the moss on the tree trunk, and I slipped suddenly. I fell to the ground and rolled, and my fall eased. The momentum, just knocked the knee on the rough old tree root, and the blood flowed profusely.

Zhishui lost a Sharingan and was hunted down by Anbu.He met Itachi, they had an appointment today!But now apparently something unexpected happened.

I slapped the dirt and rotting leaves off my hands and continued on my way.But this time, I didn't dare to look at what happened thousands of miles away. I just focused on my feet, analyzed every piece of data, and found the most suitable place to stay.

Shisui will die, in front of Itachi! ! !

I finally understood the reason for the restlessness in my heart. Itachi has already borne enough, so now I have to bear the death of my best friend?

...Yes, even if I don't want to admit it, Shisui is still Itachi's best friend, and even a respected elder brother.

Shisui is very important to Itachi, and I discovered it when I saw them compete for the first time. ——Shisui has taught Itachi a lot, and even Itachi has a taste of Shisui when he uses illusion.

Especially since joining Anbu, Itachi often meets Shisui secretly.

I'm afraid Itachi's heart has already been taken away by this little fairy!

——One person is still a bit powerless against the clan that gave birth to him, but what if there are two people?People are like this, once someone is with them, they will be even more rampant, and the lethality will double.

Itachi is a double agent. The Uchiha clan thought that placing Itachi next to Hokage would be able to obtain information from Konoha's high-level officials, but unexpectedly, they revealed their secrets instead.

Shisui may be the one who led Itachi on this path.

I don't know what Itachi is thinking in his heart. It is estimated that the arrival of the rebellious period has made him more stubborn. He will do what he thinks is right, and then take the path he chose to the dark.

I suddenly realized that perhaps letting Itachi join Anbu is the biggest failure of the Uchiha clan.If Itachi hadn't been an Anbe directly under Hokage, if he hadn't been in touch with the things in the upper layer of Konoha, then he might not have been so stubborn to look at the problem from the perspective of Hokage, maybe he was still the Itachi who insisted on righteousness, but the situation Far better than it is now.

But it's too late to say anything now, I carefully reviewed the Hokage plot that I still remember, trying to find another turning point from what will happen in the future.

And then... nothing.

I missed the last chance to change the plot of the genocide, and I didn't realize what I missed until two years later!

Damn!

I drew out the tachi sharply and chopped off the branch in front of me.

stop water...

I never liked Zhishui, because I still remember the law stated in Hokage: the more genius a person is, the more perverted he is.

Uchiha's first genius... must mean that Shisui's metamorphosis index is many times higher than others.

However, Zhishui may be my last chance to save.

At least don't let Zhishui die.

I don't know what Zhishui's immortality can change, but I feel that as long as Zhishui is still alive, it will definitely bring about some changes.

The death of Zhishui means that everything is a foregone conclusion... no, a dead end.

Because Zhishui used his own death to make everything impossible to turn around.

Water must be saved! !

My field of vision widened in an instant, and I finally came to the place where Shisui and Itachi were.

This is a narrow and tall canyon, and the waterfall roars down from the sky, deafening.

The water flow is turbulent and swirls at the bottom of the valley, stirring up layers of fine white foam.The mist filled the air, blurring the sky.At the bottom of this deep canyon, even the moonlight can't shine in, only a little afterglow is reflected in the water, breaking into circles of water continuously.

I looked up, and the crescent moon was the only thing bright and clear.

The data filled my field of vision like snowflakes. Standing at the bottom of the valley, I couldn't see the expressions of Itachi and Shishui above the canyon clearly. I just suddenly felt that the two people on top were so far away, so unattainable, so ridiculous that it made people laugh.

The hazy moonlight poured down, illuminating the open space on the cliff, like the brightest place in the center of the stage, where a big drama with indistinguishable sadness and joy was being staged, and that wonderful drama was about to end.

My footsteps didn't stop, I saw countless crow feathers scattered, and a black figure fell straight down from the cliff.

"Stop the water!!!"

Itachi's voice came from far away through the wind.

That moment seemed to have become extraordinarily long, and I watched the figure fall in a daze.

On the cliff, a burst of extremely powerful force suddenly burst out, that force was domineering and cold, as if filled with endless despair and hatred.

Kaleidoscope writing wheel eye.

People in the Uchiha clan are paranoid and radical. They have great love, but when that love is robbed, they will burst out with powerful hatred, hate themselves, and hate the world.

Despair breeds strength.

——Kaleidoscopic Sharingan is the most beautiful flower that blooms from despair.
