"what?"

Chisentao frowned her beautiful eyebrows, but she didn't react immediately, and even looked at Ulquiola with a hint of doubt in her eyes, what did he just say?Who is he that she kept mentioning?Who did she mention that made him care so much?

"Who am I like?"

Ulquiola's question choked Chimata's breathing slightly, she slowly closed those bright black eyes, and an indescribable sadness hit her heart.She didn't want to answer his question, Junmalu was dead, and Uzumaki was dead, so it was pointless to ask these questions.

Seeing that she closed her eyes and didn't even have the intention to talk to her, Ulquiola stopped asking. He put a set of white clothes beside the bed, turned around and left the room.As soon as he left, Chisentao's eyes opened quickly, she looked down at the white clothes beside the bed, and the corners of her mouth curled up in a disdainful arc.

So what if the spiritual power is sealed, does Aizen really think this thing can trap her?Picking up the white clothes on the bed, Chu Sentao took off the deadly outfit on his body. To be honest, this person Aizen still has a good eye for choosing clothes, at least the suit prepared for Chu Sentao is very suits her.

This set of clothes is somewhat similar to her undressed clothes. The short white kimono exposed her shoulders, and the trailing coat with pink cherry blossoms printed on the white background was draped over her body. Even the headdress she gave was a pure white cherry blossom hairpin. , bent down to look for shoes from under the bed, but found that there was no pair of shoes at all, did they want her to stay barefoot in Xuye Palace?Forget it, it doesn't matter if you don't have shoes, anyway, it was a common thing not to wear shoes for missions in the past.

After changing her clothes, she lay on the bed for a while, and when her body gained strength, she got off the bed. Her bare snow feet stepped on the icy ground, and a gust of cold air suddenly spread from the soles of her feet. She stretched out her tongue and licked her dry lips, walked towards the door, opened the door with her hand, Chu Sentao was immediately frightened by the 'statue' standing outside jumped.

It turned out that Ulquiola didn't leave at all. He stood upright outside the door to watch over her, and when he saw Chisentao open the door, he said calmly, "Woman, you're out."

Caressing her chest, Chu Sentao curled her lips and said, "I'm not a woman, I'm Chu Sentao, do you understand?"

"Ulquiorra Cifer, my name." He announced his name expressionlessly.

Chu Sentao was a little surprised that this person would announce his name. Why would such a cold guy...?Forget it, what are you thinking so much about?Anyway, it has nothing to do with her, they are enemies.

The two stood in a stalemate at the door for a long time. After staring at each other for several seconds, Chisentao said slowly, "Mr. Xifa, did Aizen ask you to restrict my actions?"

"No, Aizen-sama just let me watch you." When Ichimaru Gin gave Aizen's order, he only said that he would guard her and not leave her even a step away. As for restricting her range of action, this was not mentioned. .

"Then please ask Mr. Xifa to take me around the Xuye Palace." Chisentao didn't ask to see Inoue Orihime, and she guessed that it was impossible for Aizan to let herself go with Orihime They met, and now she can only pray that Kurosaki Ichigo can quickly find that orange-haired girl who always smiles brightly.

Ulquiorra stared at her for a while, then nodded and led the way. The two of them walked in the empty corridor without saying a word, and Chisentao walked beside him, stepping on the ground with bare feet. It's uncomfortable, but the current weather is already approaching winter, and generally there will be no one who is as awesome as her stepping on the ground with bare feet.

Halfway through the walk, Chisentao couldn't help but sneezed. She sniffed, bit her lower lip tightly with her white teeth, and murmured softly with her hands around herself: "Xuye Palace is so poor, even No shoes are given."

The whispered words were heard by Ulquiola, he stopped and caught a glimpse of her bare snow feet, and there was a hint of puzzlement in those green eyes. "Are you afraid of the cold?"

"The spiritual power has been sealed, what else do you think I can rely on to keep out the cold?" Raising her eyes, Chisentao bluntly replied to Ulquiola's words.

"Shoes or clothes?" he asked.

"Shoes are enough, and clothes are okay." The white clothes in Xuye Palace are very good, and the effect of keeping out the cold is very obvious.

Without saying a word, he hugged Chisentao, and when she didn't respond, Ulquiola took her to look for shoes.This is a very warm embrace. The young man in front of her is not a delicate person. Chisentao didn't struggle, and she wouldn't lose half of her flesh even if she was hugged, but she never thought that he with such a pale complexion would With such a warm embrace.

"Thank you, Mr. Xifa." Even if their positions are different, this person is not a bad person, at least he is different from those who only want to devour human souls.

"No need." No one has ever thanked him. Chisentao is No.1. In this virtual night palace, the word "thank you" is ridiculous. Why thank you, the death girl in her arms is really strange, she actually thanked her enemy.

She found a pair of clogs with Hinata, and the clogs with the cherry blossom pattern on the white background were quite suitable for her current attire. When she stood firmly on the ground, she raised her hand and it happened to be flat on Ulquiola's chest.

"The shoes are just right, so take me around." Didn't notice the abnormality of the black hair, and was about to take back her hand, and when she pulled away from him, Ulquiorra caught him. her wrist. "you!?"

"Chi Sentao, are you not afraid of me?"

"Why are you afraid of you?" The wrist was grabbed, and Chu Sentao tried to break free, but found that she couldn't break free. At this moment, she blamed God for being unfair. Why are men stronger than women? Woolen cloth?She really hoped that her current body was Uzumaki instead of Chisentao, at least when she was Uzumaki, she could even lift a small rock.

"Why are you not afraid of me? Your companions will die here, or be trapped here forever, and you and that woman will only die alone in this isolated place." His voice was as low as From the ghostly deep void of hell.

"They won't die here, and they won't be trapped here forever. Ms. Inoue will be rescued by Kurosaki-kun, and I won't be caught here obediently. Also, you just want others to be afraid of you Is it?" Chisentao felt that Ulquiorra was weird, why did he always ask the question of whether he was afraid of him or not?

The green eyes widened slightly, and the astonishment in Ulquiola's eyes was only fleeting, and he tightened his grip on Chisentao suddenly. "Totally boring, you and your companion's fate is already doomed."

"Whether it is destined or not is up to us. As long as we have faith, we will never lose to you." Aizen is amazing, but so what?As long as everyone is there, no matter how terrifying the enemy is, it will become less scary.

"Faith? Even if your companion comes, that woman is doomed not to be saved, and you will also die. Don't you gods of death and human beings like to deceive yourself? In order to escape from fear and despair, you think about beliefs. Something practical."

"Maybe you are right, but so what? Desperation and fear are caused by your wars. Humans are indeed weak creatures, but they know how to unite. When one suffers, the others will stand up To help, just like this time, Miss Inoue was swept into the virtual circle by you, and we came to rescue her for the same reason. Mr. Xifa, your body is obviously hot, but you don't have a heart that can beat here " Staring at Ulquiola's chest, Chisentao replied coldly.

"What is a heart?" Ulquiola let go of Chisentao's wrist, and his hand stretched straight towards her, stopping at a position a few tenths of a millimeter away from her heart. "Tearing this chest, can you see through the thoughts in your heart?" While speaking, his hand slowly moved up again, reaching her forehead. "Smash this head, can you understand what is in your mind?"

"I have nothing left to miss, and now I only want to protect the heart I have." Miss?The thoughts in her heart became nonsense the moment she became Chisentao.

Slowly taking his hands away from her, the corners of Ulquiola's lips curled up. "You and that woman are strange people."

The smile disappeared like a hallucination, but it was still discovered by Chisentao. "Actually, you look pretty when you smile. Why do you always have a cold face? Don't you all have a cold face like you?"

"No." Ulquiola, who had regained his indifference, raised his head and looked forward. He seemed to have sensed something, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes. It's a town."

As soon as he finished his words, a person appeared in front of Chisentao. The white-haired and blue-eyed boy exuded an extraordinary air of coldness. He looked at the girl with a trace of tenderness in his eyes, but when he looked at Ulquiola When I was there, the tenderness in my eyes disappeared without a trace, as if the tenderness just now had never appeared at all.

"Who are you?" Ulquiorra seemed not at all surprised by the appearance of other gods of death.

"Gotei thirteenth division, captain of the tenth division, Hitsugaya Toshirō." Hitsugaya Toshirō's body was terribly cold, and now he only thought about how to rub the black-haired face in front of him into ice.

"No. 4 of the Ten Blades of the Broken Face, Ulquiorra Cifer." There is still some politeness that should be given, and he should also give due respect to people who have reported themselves.

A look of surprise appeared on Hina Morita's face. She didn't expect Toshirō Hitsugaya to appear in this place. Shouldn't they be preparing for the winter decisive battle?Why does it appear here?

Chapter 23

Uzumaki was eight years old that year.

They met.

When she was a child, Uzumaki climbed the rock wall with mud all over her body. In order to find the legendary four-leaf clover that can make a wish, she got lost in this forest.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Uzumaki looked up, a pair of big black and gray eyes filled with tears.

Right above the rock wall, her eyes fixed on the boy standing on it.The boy has white shawl hair, emerald green eyes showing indifference, and two round red spots on his forehead. Although the clothes he wears are a bit strange, there is no denying that he is a very beautiful person.

"Why are you crying?" The boy's name is Kaguya-kunmaro, he came here just to relax, when he saw the tears in the girl's eyes, he questioned.

"I didn't cry!!" Stretching out her hand to wipe away the crystals in her eyes, she stared stubbornly at Kaguya-kunmaro, her white and immature hands were scratched with hideous scars after climbing the rock wall.

Uzumaki finally climbed up to the highest rock wall, and she stood in front of Kaguya-kunmaro, her hands wrapped around the hem of her clothes uneasily.She had never left the village alone, and if it wasn't for making her brother happy, she wouldn't have foolishly run to such a place and lost her way.

"Are you from here?"

"……Um."

"Wow! That's great, you are from here!!" Uzumaki Tsubaki was a little happy, and she stretched out her hands and rushed towards Kaguya-kun Maro with a lively nature.

Jun Malu's icy emerald green eyes flashed a daze, and he was caught by the whirlpool before he could react. He was at a loss for the petite body and warmth in his arms. No one had ever been so intimate with him. Contact, even the Oshemaru-sama who he regards as a god has never had it.

"You?" Jun Malu tilted his head, he never expected to run into a child from another village here.

"Big brother, do you know four-leaf clover?" Uzumaki blinked her eyes, with a hint of hope on her face.

"What is a four-leaf clover?" Jun Ma Lu didn't understand.

"Clover is a magical thing that can make people's wishes come true." Uzumaki also heard from the older generation in the village. She and her younger brother Uzumaki Naruto have always been unpopular in the village. With a depressed face, she decided to go outside to find this legendary four-leaf clover, and made a wish to let the people in the village accept her brother and her.

"Wish fulfillment? What wish do you have?"

"I want the people in the village to like me and my brother." When the female Uzumaki Tsubaki said this, her big eyes showed a deep sense of loneliness.

"There are no four-leaf clover here." He has been coming to this forest. If there was such a magical thing, he would have picked it up and dedicated it to Master Orochimaru. Why would it be left for others to pick it?

Jun Malu's words shattered all the hopes in Uzumaki's heart. She was so frustrated that she didn't let herself cry. When she came out of the village, she only had 50.00% hope in her heart. Hearing such a decisive answer from the boy's mouth, she was still very sad.

"Where are you from?" Jun Malu asked in a low voice.

"I'm from Muye Village."

Whirlpool Tsubaki's words made Jun Malu raise his head, and the sunlight that passed through the lush branches and leaves that covered the sky and sheltered from the rain dappled and sprinkled on his body and face, lonely and gentle.He didn't expect that Whirlpool Tsubaki came from Muye Village, that place was far away from here, and she would trek across mountains and rivers alone to come to such a place.

"Do you know how to get home?"

"Well, I don't know." Shaking her head, Uzumaki has been completely lost in this forest for a long time, and she has been wandering around this place for the past few days.

"I'll take you back." Jun Malu didn't know what was wrong with him. Whirlpool Chun had nothing to do with him, but he suddenly wanted to help her out of kindness.

"Wow! Thank you!!" Hearing that he was going to send her home, Uzumaki immediately opened her arms happily and threw herself at Jun Ma Lu again to express her most sincere thanks.

The body was hugged tightly by her again, Jun Malu's hands were hanging on the sides of his body, and a slight blush appeared on his fair face.

This is a feeling he has never experienced before.

Warm and nostalgic.

One tall and one short figure shuttled through the verdant and lush forest. The two held hands and walked slowly.Passing by the endless river, the smooth stones covered with moss are still rooted in the river mud, which is convenient for people to step on.Holding the hand of the beautiful big brother, Uzumaki said happily: "Although I didn't find the legendary four-leaf clover, it's great to meet you here, big brother."

With one hand hanging by his side, Jun Malu was holding her with the other, speaking with a touch of tenderness in his tone. "Don't get lost next time."

The little blue shoes stepped on the stone steps with a 'da da—', the female Uzumaki Tsubaki raised her head and smiled with her beautiful black and gray eyes: "I'm lost, big brother will take me home."

"You, aren't you afraid of me?" Jun Ma Lu looked at her and asked.

Uzumaki looked at him innocently, puzzled. "Why are you afraid? Big brother is so beautiful and kind, so I'm not afraid."

"..." A simple sentence caused a crack to appear in Jun Ma Lu Bingfeng's heart.

After walking for several days, the two finally arrived at a place not far from the entrance of Muye Village. The golden sunlight in the sky was dyed orange red, and the soft light shrouded them, so warm.

"My name is Uzumaki Tsubaki, how about you, big brother?"

The breeze blew the girl's long crimson hair, Junmalu's white shawl hair and the wide white robe on him, and the "snapping" sound of the leaves on the tree, but there was no sound Wait for his answer.

They looked at each other, silent...

In the end, Uzumaki Tsubaki spoke first. "Big brother... goodbye."

After speaking, she ran away without looking back.

"Junmalu, my name is Huiye Junmalu." His voice came from behind, and when the whirlpool stopped and turned around, there was only a green leaf mixed with the breeze sweeping past.

This is the first meeting of Uzumaki Tsubaki and Kaguya-kun Maro, and it is also the beginning of everything.

The first encounter is doomed to the final sorrow.

The story of him and her is as gorgeous and short as fireworks.

Even if it is only once in a lifetime to say what is in your heart, it is enough to be unforgettable.

This sentence was only exchanged for four years, but none of them could forget it.

The doomed ending has been known for a long time, but they still don't want to let go of their attachment to each other.

Every year since they met, they would spend their free time in the forest where they first met. One after the other, they walked through every inch of land in the forest and crossed the narrow and clear stream. The two never talked about ninjas. They talked about their distant dreams, and made a lifetime vow under the golden sunshine.

"It's an agreement, Jun Ma Lu and Chun will always be together."

Walking through the beautiful forest together, we occasionally meet a few ferocious beasts or small animals hiding behind trees out of curiosity, but none of this prevents the two of them from enjoying this moment of tranquility that only belongs to them.

Looking at the pink and tender cherry blossoms in spring together, stretching their hands into the air, and then falling petals, even if it is a very boring little thing, it can make them very happy.

Scenes like this happen most of the time, but they hope that time can slow down a bit, so that the comfortable time can stay longer, so that they can have more of each other.

In a blink of an eye, time flies, the little girl was already 12 years old, Uzumaki Tsubaki passed the examination of the ninja school and became a ninja, but the boy named Kaguya-kun Maro appeared there less and less In the forest, she would wait there whenever she had time, because she didn't want to miss meeting him.

"Are you happy being a ninja?"

"Having an important companion and being recognized by the people around me will certainly make me feel better." Whirlpool Chun said and looked at Jun Ma Lu, and suddenly, she added another sentence and said with a smile: "But... there is Jun Ma Lu I am happiest when Lu is by my side."

Whirlpool Tsubaki's words made the corners of Junmalu's lips curved. It was the most beautiful smile she had ever seen, as bright and gorgeous as the snow lotus blooming on the ice and snow mountain.

"Jun Ma Lu should smile more, you look so pretty when you smile."

Jun Malu didn't speak, he just stared quietly at the whirlpool, holding her hand even tighter.

Time will part them one day, but until that day comes, let them stay together forever.

Junmaru prayed like this every day in his heart.

Uzumaki Tsubaki went on a mission. In order to bring back her companion Uchiha Sasuke, she and her younger brother Uzumaki Naruto and companion Nara Shikamaru and others chased the Otonin five who took Sasuke away.At that time, Uzumaki didn't know that the day when she and Junmalu would part was approaching, her long crimson hair was flying in the forest, defeating the enemy on the ground, she felt something was wrong in her heart.

The support troops arrived, Uzumaki Tsubaki did not follow them, she chased after the marks left by Nara Shikamaru and the others.In the yellow sand all over the sky, the red-haired and blue-eyed allied support boy Sandstorm Gaara is fighting with the white-haired boy Kaguya Junmaro. The white loose robe on Junmaro's body is stained with blood. The weird markings were gradually fading away, and the eyes that always looked at her with a gentle smile turned gray.

"Tsubaki." When the boy saw her, a trace of surprise flashed in his emerald green eyes that had lost their luster, and then he smiled happily. "I am free."

The two hands hanging by his sides opened, and the bones protruding from the skin on his body were retracted in an instant, and his face was shining with the most brilliant brilliance. "Finally I can tell you without any scruples, what I have buried in my heart that I have always wanted to say to you."

Seeing the smile on Jun Malu's face, Uzumaki ran over regardless of Gaara and Lee Locke's surprised gazes.

At the last moment of his life, the young man's handsome profile was shining with gentle light. He hugged the whirlpool Chun in his arms tightly, and whispered softly in her ear: "Tsubaki, I like you, I like you the most."

Uzumaki smiled happily, as if she was the happiest person in the world at the moment.

She hugged Jun Malu happily until his head rested gently on her shoulders, and the hands that held her slipped to the sides.Wrapping her arms tightly around his waist, she buried her head on the side of his neck and burst into tears.

At this moment, the time returned to the day when they met, surrounded by green and lush forests, he took her hand and walked on the quiet tree-lined road. "Tsubaki, I will always be with you, and I love you."

Whirlpool Chun put Jun Ma Lu's head on her lap, she sat in the overwhelming yellow sand, looked up at the blue sky, let the tears flow from her eyes, she caressed Jun Ma Lu's shawl white hair, He replied tremblingly, "Jun Ma Lu, Chun loves you the most too."

A feeling stronger than liking is love.

The little white flower stained with the boy's blood flew in the air with the wind, and Uzumaki's hand gently caressed Jun Malu's face, as if what was in front of her was her most precious treasure in this world.

Finally, Kaguya-kunmaro has someone to love even if he sacrifices his life.

Finally, Kaguya-kunmaro also has the meaning of living in this world besides living for Orochimaru.

In love, so deep.

Except for a short "I love you", they didn't have any vigorous vows to eachother. The warm and simple love was engraved into the torrent of history. They have each other, they love each other, but time is gone.

——My name is Uzumaki Tsubaki, how about you, big brother?

——Kimaro, my name is Kaguya-kunmaro.
