life is like a dream

After Payne attacked the village, Muye Village was in a mess, with ruins everywhere. The villagers lived in simple tents temporarily, and Liuli woke up from the tent at that time.

It turns out that Payne, who attacked the village, turned out to be the apprentice Jiraiya accepted in Yuyin Village many years ago. During the battle with Naruto, he regained his childhood dream and used the forbidden technique of reincarnation to be resurrected because of this war. All the people who died, Ruri and Kakashi were one of them, but he died of exhaustion, and finally entrusted his will to his final opponent-Naruto.

Although the people who died in this war were rescued by Nagato's reincarnation, but this ninjutsu cannot heal the people who are still alive but fell into a coma, just like Tsunade who fell into a coma due to excessive use of the slug technique.

Although it doesn't take much time to walk between the place where Ruri lives and the tent where Tsunade is, but for Ruri who is now blind and the current road conditions of Konoha, it is very difficult.So in order to take care of Tsunade conveniently, Ruri simply moved to the tent where Tsunade lived.First, with me here to take care of Tsunade, Shizune-san can safely deal with the backlog of Hokage files. Second, since I stay honestly in Hokage’s tent, Kakashi can also devote himself to post-war reconstruction with peace of mind. In Sanlai's army, for the sake of safety, Itachi and Liuli's elder brother has been wearing a mask to act as Anbu, staying in Hokage's tent to protect Hokage's safety, and at the same time it is convenient to hide his identity.Fourth, living here, Liuli can also take good care of her master, this elder whom she has always loved and respected as her mother.

The days of taking care of Tsunade are calm and fulfilling, except for checking Tsunade's body.Liuli is like a chatterbox every day, telling Tsunade everything she hears, no matter how big or small, even if Tsunade never answers, she will speak with great interest and vividness by herself.Sometimes he would even drag the background Itachi into the water to cooperate with him, which often made Itachi dumbfounded.

That day, as usual, Ruri checked Tsunade's body and was about to start a conversation when suddenly a voice that she would never forget in her life came to her ears.At that moment, time seemed to go back to three years ago, the dark and cold cabin, the cold metal, sticky blood, helpless cries, and the bloody world.

Liuli began to tremble uncontrollably, the past that she thought could be forgotten, the past that she thought had been forgotten, was clearly reflected in her mind at this moment.

"Uchiha Ruri, we meet again. We haven't seen each other for many years. How are you?" Shimura Danzo looked at Ruri who bowed his head not far away.

The sharp nails slammed the palms fiercely, Liuli tried to use the pain in her body to resist the constant fear in her heart, "I know, I have always known, I have never been strong enough, not brave enough, forget everything, but It is a self-deceiving lie. Because I know that I will not be left behind, I will not be alone, so I always get used to relying on others. But the world is like this, and one day the reality will force you to grow up. Just like now, so you can All the people I rely on are not around, and the only brother I can rely on must never show up unless I think his life would be worse than death."

Ruri stood up, the loose clothes she had been wearing because of illness, the wide sleeves just covered her clenched hands, Ruri took a step forward, relying on her voice and memory, directly in front of Itachi, "I don't know Danzo-sama, today Going to Hokage's tent, what's your business? If it's to discuss business matters, as you can see, my master is in a coma at this time; if it's a private matter, it may be even more inconvenient at this time." Liuli used the pain to stabilize her mind and went After finishing all the words in one breath, the unfocused eyes stared straight ahead.

"Indeed, it's not appropriate to find Tsunade now, whether it's business or personal matters. I'm not so unreasonable. But, you seem to be mistaken about my purpose..., what I'm looking for is to stand now In front of you, this Anbu is ready to attack me at any time."

"Haha, Danzo-sama was joking. Anbe has always been directly under Hokage, and has always only obeyed Hokage's orders. Please forgive me for not having the right to hand this person over to you."

"You don't have this right...? It doesn't matter....., I have. Do you go by yourself, or I invite you to go." Danzo skipped Liuli directly, looked at Itachi and threatened.

While talking, Liuli felt that two more people came in.

"Liuli, let me go with them, trust me, it's okay, they can't hurt me." Itachi behind Liuli sent Liuli a sound transmission through the Uchiha clan.

Liuli turned back and grabbed Itachi, who was about to walk forward, and itachi, whose arm was touched, gasped, but didn't break away from Liuli's hand.

"Anbu has always been led and deployed by Hokage. It is a power directly under Hokage. Why did you call away the guards protecting Tsunade-sama?" Liuli argued hard, not giving up anything, not even using honorifics.

"This time, no one can take away my cherished person by my side, no one can..."

"Just because I'm the sixth Hokage appointed by the daimyo." Danzo paused, "I'm just a traitor, and dare to pretend that Hokage is directly under Anbu, Uchiha Ruri, I want to ask, how do you explain this matter. "Danzo's tone was cold and piercing, like a poisonous snake spit out a core, staring at Liuli closely.

"He knew, he actually knew, how could he know..." Liu Li, whose disguise was torn off, felt great fear rushing towards her face.

"Uchiha Itachi..., why..., are you still insisting on not going with me?"

Itachi glanced at Liuli, broke away Liuli and grabbed his hand, and walked towards Danzo.

Suddenly Liuli ran outside fiercely, she wanted to stop Itachi, she couldn't let them take him away, she rescued Itachi, she didn't let him fall into the hands of people like Danzo.

With a sound of "Plop", Liuli fell to the ground and did not get up for a long time, a huge stone slab was quietly lying beside Liuli's feet.

Itachi shook off the root member who was holding him, and ran back in a hurry, "Liuli, how is it? Is there any injury?" Helping Liuli lying on the ground, Itachi asked nervously.

"elder brother……."

"It's okay, is there any pain, can you stand up?" Itachi carefully supported Liuli, checked it carefully, and found no wounds except for the dust on his body, so he was relieved.

"elder brother……."

Liuli stubbornly grabbed Itachi and stood in front of him again, her big eyes glaring in front of her eyes, "Danzo-sama...how on earth are you willing to let us go? Is it not enough to kill the Uchiha clan? Dig me Isn't it enough for my brother to give up everything and leave his hometown for so many years..., what do you have to do to be satisfied, what do you have to do to be willing to give up, what do you have to do to make us like ordinary ninjas Living like that, you don't have to worry about whether you will be taken away inexplicably at home... Please..., please let my brother go."

"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm looking for Itachi Uchiha just to ask about the Akatsuki organization. As for what you said, I don't know what you mean at all." Looking at the ninjas here, I cried "Oops" in my heart.

"If you want to know Akatsuki's information, Uchiha Itachi has already told Master Tsunade everything he knows, and it is stored in the A-level file in the archives. As long as you have Hokage permission, you can read it, so why take my brother on a special trip?" Let's go, do you think I will believe what you say after going through so much, Shimura Danzo-sama..."

"What you want is nothing more than my brother's Blood Wheel Eye. If you can beat it, you can grab it... just like Uchiha Shisui and I back then; if you can't beat it, you can threaten it..., like I used Sasuke as a bargaining chip to threaten my brother. But..., what a pity, Sasuke has already left the village. So it's my turn this time, isn't that why we are separated on purpose?"

"I saved Uchiha Itachi back to the village, not to let you insult and hurt me. I lost almost all my relatives in the past 20 years... I tried my best to find one... As long as I am alive, no one will touch him .Even if you Shimura Danzo is the sixth generation of Hokage, you can never take my brother away from me, at worst..." Liuli also gave it up, who cares, she has endured it for a long time, and Sasuke hasn't found it yet Well, I and Kakashi have just walked around the ghost gate, if someone takes Itachi away for torture and insult, then my Uchiha clan will die tragically.

Tuanzang on the opposite side was very angry, probably she didn't expect Liuli, who is usually timid and cowardly, to be so tough this time, her face was covered with mud, but it didn't weaken her aura at all, she looked like she would fight you desperately if you dared to move Stance.

"Liuli..., brother is really happy to be protected, but you have to trust brother to protect yourself well." Itachi smiled and rubbed Liuli's hair, the wound on his hand was scratched by Liuli's hair, The pain was dense, but Itachi was very happy. This was the first time that someone stood in front of him desperately and protected him regardless of the consequences.

"Brother..." Liuli held Itachi tightly, shaking her head vigorously.She knows, she knows how strong her brother is, he is a rare genius in the Uchiha clan, even Kakashi finds it difficult to exist, and he is the highest-level S-rank ninja.Even if the usual Itachi was taken away, Liuli fully believed that he would be able to escape unscathed, but not now, just now, she felt it.Itachi was injured, brother's hand was injured, although he has been hiding it very well, Liuli doesn't know what's going on, because she has never told her about it, and she herself is blind, except for perception, she can't even see light the blind man.A ninja who can't seal, how to protect herself, how dare she bet... "

Using herself as a shield, Liuli can only bet that Shimura Danzo will not dare to catch her without a valid reason. She firmly stands in front of Itachi, which is the only thing she can do for her brother at present.But she obviously underestimated the shamelessness of Danzo and the madness of Sharingan.

Almost instantly, Liuli felt two strong winds blowing towards her, and Liuli, who had no time to react, closed her eyes subconsciously.

He only heard the sound of two objects hitting the ground, followed by two muffled groans, and since he was not attacked, Liuli knew that someone had blocked the attack for him, and by the way, he treated him in his own way The body taught those two guys a lesson.

"Kakashi..." Danzo almost gnashed his teeth.

"Hey, Danzo-sama has not seen for a long time, I didn't expect to see you again in this way. Konoha is waiting to be done, and everyone is already busy. I don't want to, Danzo-sama is so free, and I will take it personally Excuse me, in front of the Fifth Hokage’s tent, you want to kill my fiancée, what is going on here.” Kakashi was still smiling as usual, with a good-tempered and easy-talking appearance, but his words were not so friendly.

Just now, Liuli was pulled behind by Itachi, and just about to make a move to catch these two moves, Kakashi who suddenly appeared took the lead. It seems that he heard the news and hurried over.

Itachi looked down, and since Kakashi showed up just now, Liuli poked his head out from behind him, with a gentle and doting expression on his face, "Liuli, Kakashi really cares about you, I have worked with him for many years , This is the first time I saw Kakashi like this, it is precisely because you have Kakashi to take care of you that Sasuke left the village without hesitation back then."

The scene was at a stalemate for a while, Danzo didn't answer, and Kakashi didn't ask any more questions, and the two teams just confronted each other silently.

"It's so lively... It seems that I came at the right time."

"Hideyoshi Hideyoshi..." Everyone shouted in unison.

"Today I just went to see the Fifth Hokage. I didn't want to see so many people who are not usually seen at once today. What a coincidence. Hey, who will tell me first, what were we talking about just now? It was so lively." Hideyoshi smiled. Looking at Danzo and Kakashi, but the obvious smile didn't reach his eyes.

Liuli stood aside and looked down at her own toes. Although it was the same as looking up, it was all dark. Listening to Hideyoshi's words, Liuli also really admired him. He is worthy of being the country's second-in-command. The ability to reverse black and white is high, obviously just now the scene was so quiet that a needle could be heard, and now she is sweating all over her hands, which made him stunned to say that it was lively, and he said it with confidence, or else he talked about politics Home is the old fox, the old fritters are coming.

"Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just that a traitor sneaked into the village and pretended to be Hokage Anbu. We just discovered it and are about to take him away now." Danzo said.

"Oh, is that the rebellious ninja you mentioned?" Hideyoshi asked, pointing at Itachi.

"Yes." Danzo replied.

Listening to their conversation, Liuli subconsciously took a step towards Itachi.

"Hahahaha..." Hideyoshi laughed suddenly, "Uchiha Itachi..., that is the personal guard I just received some time ago, I asked the Fifth Hokage to help me train for a period of time, this time to see the fifth generation Hokage just planned to take him back to the city."

Liuli's tense body finally relaxed.

"Your Highness Hideyoshi, Uchiha Itachi is a traitor. As a member of Akatsuki, he has done a lot of things that harm the interests of all countries. If other countries know that we have Uchiha Itachi privately, the consequences..." Although the tone of Danzo is respectful , but anyone who is not a fool can understand the threat in those words, and Hideyoshi with a very high IQ certainly understands it.

Hideyoshi glanced at Danzo who bowed his head, and said with a smile that was not a smile, "It's really unbelievable, the dignified Konoha, the most powerful village among the five major countries, has its intelligence system been so vulnerable? , can any country snoop on information about my country of fire, or is it that Sixth Hokage believes that Konoha Village under his management has no ability to resist other countries? I don’t think it’s a big deal about Itachi Uchiha. I believe it must be a small matter in terms of your ability in Danzo, so don't let me down......."

After finishing speaking, Hideyoshi ignored Danzo, turned around and walked towards the tent where Tsunade was, "I will take Uchiha Itachi with me when I return to the city. This matter ends here, and I don't want to hear any other rumors."

After finishing speaking, Hideyoshi led Liuli and the others to lift the curtain and enter, leaving Danzo standing alone.
