[Hokage] A rose in mourning for the summer moon

As an Anbu ninja, what skills do you need to master?Concealment, stealth, disguise, assassination.

As an Anbe female ninja, what skills do you need to master?Seduce/lure.

And the precise and ruthless way of cutting off the root of the other party's descendants with a single stroke of the knife.

I was suspended for three months.Because in the last mission, my partner asked me to seduce/seduce the target.The agreed plan is to show that he will turn back immediately after getting the information and signal me to retreat.But I endured the nausea and made false claims with the other party, but my partner disappeared for a long time.In the end, I realized that the guy was from Danzo, and breaking his word was commonplace, so I drew out my sword in anger, and made the target's house jump.

"It only took one knife. If the reaction is fast enough and a qualified doctor can be found, maybe a 'broken limb' can be replanted."

After returning to Konoha, I defended myself in front of Hokage with a straight face.Both Hokage and Danzo were there, one wryly smiled, and the other flew into a rage.

Danzo's rage was just a disguise.He is an old, treacherous and well-established man, and he has not given up observing me for several years.I suspect part of it was that he wanted to goug my eyes.

Under the pressure of Danzo, the Third Hokage gave me the decision to suspend my job, but privately told me that next time I encounter this situation, I still have to protect myself first, but the means can be milder, such as using □□ to deal with it, The body runs away.

Some of Anbu's companions also comforted me afterwards, and praised how beautiful and joyful my knife was.

"How can our Konoha girls suffer!" They were indignant, "Take ninjas for nothing, this is not ancient times!"

My immediate boss, Tianzang, even said a few words for me, and quietly treated me as a paid vacation.

Staying with these people, I can quite understand why so many people have vowed to give their lives to protect Konoha.Some people and things are just worth it.

Other than colleagues and superiors, Sasuke was the first to find out about my suspension.Anyone who finds out that the sister who lives next door can suddenly come to him for breakfast in her pajamas and yawning every day will feel suspicious.I told him that this was my late paid annual leave, and I just came back to celebrate his birthday to make up for the regret that I missed last year.

With his hands in his pockets and his back straight, he turned his face away when I said that and said, "I'm not interested in birthdays."

I am very emotional: "The child will play cool when he grows up."

He suddenly became a little furious: "Xia Yue!"

"Isn't this what Naruto said about being cool?"

"Don't listen to that crane tail nonsense!"

When it comes to Naruto, Sasuke's coolness is broken in a second, like a little monster with teeth and claws.Could it be that this is the natural enemy, or is it the setting of "the enemy of life" in Chaozhong Er in the comics?However, recent novels are popular to unilaterally identify the "enemy of life" and slap the other side indifferently. I don't know which type Sasuke belongs to...

"Xia Yue!"

I came back to my senses and said lovingly: "In short, birthdays are celebrated."

Sasuke stared at me, his eyebrows gradually furrowing. "Hey, I'm obviously only 16 years old, so I act like an adult." He whispered, "I don't want to celebrate my birthday. Didn't Xiayue celebrate it too?"

"I'm busy with work. If I have time, I still want to celebrate my birthday." I patted his head, but the young boy avoided him awkwardly, "The most important thing is to live a good life."

"no!"

Sasuke raised his head abruptly, his entire expression darkened, and the anger of hatred was still fluttering in his eyes.

"For me, the only thing that matters is revenge!"

"Sasuke..."

"I'm going to practice!"

...Really, it was clearly agreed that he would wash the dishes today.

I'm really not good at psychological counseling for teenagers, worry.

Taking advantage of the rare paid annual leave—regardless of whether it is or not—I visited a few colleagues and friends who were still acquainted.The colleagues in Anbe belong to the relationship that I can't communicate with on weekdays. Apart from them, there are only a few people I can visit.After the experiment, Liuhua invited me to go on a date with her as usual, but I refused as usual.

"It's really sad, little Xiayue." She flipped through my data, with a half-smile, "Now in Anbu, Xiayue also has a little reputation as a 'genius'? Or should I call you Xunfeng? I have contributed a lot to Xia Yue's growth. It is really ruthless to throw away people after they use them up."

This man is getting more and more perverted.

"I am very grateful to Liuhua. If every experiment can be less painful, I will probably be more grateful." I casually said.

Ryuka's smile widened a bit.She is not an ugly woman, on the contrary, she is very delicate, refreshing and pleasant.But whenever she shows this kind of probing look, like a predator looking at how to precisely divide its prey into pieces, it makes people feel a little uncomfortable.

"Xia Yue, let's make a deal." She said, "Just promise me one thing, and I can keep Feng Yunye's secret for you."

Feng Yunye, the ability of my kaleidoscope Sharingan.

"I don't know what you're talking about." I believe I didn't show any flaws.

"Compared with those devastating abilities, Feng Yunye is indeed very inconspicuous. But in actual use, this ability to quietly change a person's mind is very terrifying. I once did it for that adult. I have analyzed many sharingans' abilities, let me think about it... To a certain extent, Feng Yunye has the same ability as other gods, right? No, not as strong as other gods, but Feng Yunye must have his own characteristics .”

Don't god.stop water.

I slowly tied my shoelaces and stood up.

"Why did you study Zhishui's Sharingan? After his body was found in Nanhechuan, the family buried him directly."

It's been a long time since I've said that name to anyone.I almost thought that I had forgotten how I felt when those two syllables were pronounced.But when I really said Zhishui's name, the past immediately returned to my soul; I seemed to be able to see the boy back then, he had a bright and gentle smile, brown curly hair like a docile sheep, but his eyes were firm like a fearless flame .All of a sudden he was dead without even an explanation.

"What does Zhishui's death have to do with you?" I was a little out of control, I knew it.But I can't control it.

"I'm just a small researcher. But I guess, we didn't do it first, right?" Liuhua smiled sweetly, with a sly leisurely look on her face, "Xia Yue, what you should worry about most now is Myself. Maybe other people can't find Feng Yunye's abnormality, but the data will not lie. In the past few years, after every experiment with you, I will test my prefrontal cortex function value. Guess what, What did I find?"

She took a graph.

"It's not a very obvious change, but it's enough to prove that Toyouno's effect is persistent, isn't it, Natsuki?" she said, "You must be very sorry that you can't stay with Danzo-sama or Hokage all the time. "

I looked down and considered for a moment.

"Luka, what do you want?"

"A deal." She repeated with a smile, "Xia Yue, I will keep a secret for you, and you will save someone for me."

"Who?"

"Have you ever heard of the Iron Country?"

"The country of samurai without ninjas?"

"That's right, that's where it is. In a neutral country famous for iron casting and samurai, the beauties of Yoshiwara are also famous." Ryuka's smile cast a shadow, "There is a shop called 'Pine House', my sister is in There, the stage name is Xuechun. Xia Yue, save her."

This is the first time I've heard Liuhua speak in such an orderly tone, it seems that she is indeed in a hurry.

"I didn't even know Liuhua had a younger sister."

"My sister and I are war orphans. We were separated when we were young. I always thought my sister was dead. I only recently received news that she has become a... prostitute from the Iron Country." Due to anger, Liuhua's smile became a little bit Weird, but even so, she refuses to show her anger explicitly, as if the smile has become a mask, glued to her face at all times.

"The Kingdom of Iron has very strict controls on ninjas entering the country. I need time to settle my sister, so Xia Yue has to find a way to delay it for me." She has a well-thought-out plan, and it seems that she has a plan, "I will send you a message. Songzhi There have been activities organized by 'Akatsuki' over there recently. I know you have been paying attention to the news of Itachi Uchiha, Xia Yue, so this is also a good opportunity for you, right?"

"Is that all?" I picked up the black collar on the counter and played with it slowly, "Luhua, you are just keeping a secret for me, but I have to take a big risk. This is not a fair deal."

Lucy frowned suspiciously.She looked at the surveillance collar in my hand and gave a smug smile.

"I can help you solve this little trouble. Just install a signal transmitter, and I can simulate your body data to prevent your little secret from being discovered by others." She said with a smile, "How about it, Xia Yue , is this sincere enough?"

"no need."

Liuhua didn't seem to react for a while: "What?"

"I said, no need. This kind of small device is not troublesome at all. You can have as much data as you want."

I put on the collar and fastened the ring on the back of my neck with a soft "da".Liuhua stood opposite, and was about to say something, but her throat was tightly strangled by the stethoscope hanging around her neck.She grabbed the stethoscope violently, trying to tear apart the tighter and tighter metal ring with a "ho hoo", her whole face turned red and almost purple.

"How...could...why...there was no alarm..."

"Using Chakra outside of mission time will sound your alarm. This is a good design." I walked up to her, and saw myself in her wide-open eyes, even the bright red Sharingan They are all vaguely visible, "You guessed half right, Feng Yunye's effect is indeed continuous. But, who told you that I can only hypnotize human beings?"

"Everything, whether it has life or not, will be driven by Toyo Yuno. You underestimate me, Ryuka." I said, "Tell me the truth about Shisui's death, and everything you know Danzo-related matters."

"You... don't you...don't worry..."

"You will forget, Liuhua. You will only remember that we have reached a deal, and you got what you wanted, and will continue to experiment on me, helping me to obtain the amount of chakra that exceeds the upper limit of my talent."

She stared, showing a look of fear.

"I will continue to count on you in the future, Liuhua." I said.

Human beings are always prone to self-righteousness, thinking that they have seen the overall situation clearly, grasped people's hearts, and have a plan for future changes.But as long as you read more history books, you will know that no matter how great a person is, it is impossible to truly control his own destiny, let alone the lives of others.

Hokage thought he knew Danzo and the village well enough, Danzo thought he could do whatever he wanted with his "roots", and Ryuka thought she could easily use me as a tool.However, fate always hides infinite variables, just as the changes of people's hearts cannot be fully understood.They are so self righteous.

They are undoubtedly smart people, at least smarter than me.Therefore, I don't think I can be the "single bird behind" one.I don't have such a long-term vision, nor do I have a meticulous layout and ingenious means.

I just took every opportunity I could in the moment and kept going, believing that the light would eventually come.

I believe—I can only believe—that the way I am going is the direction in which the dawn will rise.

The author has something to say: I once really wanted to write the scene of Flower Street, and I did a lot of homework for it, but it was a pity that it was never used.

This time I can finally write, touching!

The next chapter, Brother Weasel, is online.
