When they saw the Uchiha security team members with the emblem of table tennis rackets reappearing on the streets, the villagers of Konoha were really happy and worried.
I'm glad because, in the days when Uchiha didn't patrol the streets, all kinds of gangsters and gangsters would dare to act recklessly.
The security team members temporarily formed by the three tribes of Hyuga, Sarutobi, and Yamanaka mostly do more than less, and the law enforcement is quite loose to maintain the goodwill of the villagers. As long as they don't see it or the thing is not serious, just pretend it didn't happen.
The streets are basically managed in a free-range manner.
The number of patrols they make every day is only half of that of the Uchiha Guard. At night, only a few people are on duty in the guard. Some ninjas drank too much and caused trouble and injured people. They were all handled by the ANBU directly under the Hokage.
Now that Uchiha is back, the days when all the wrongdoers, big and small, were arrested and treated equally are back. At least the business and property safety of the neighbors are guaranteed.
As for worry, it is inevitable because of the unique superior look and attitude of the Uchiha clan.
They do not ask for reasons and dispatch the police quickly. As long as someone violates the security regulations of the police force, they will be taken away for interrogation. This will inevitably make people feel trembling, fearing that they have done something wrong, which will put everyone under great pressure.
However, they resumed their responsibilities and at least wiped away the dark cloud above Konoha——
That is, the rumors of an imminent war between the village and Uchiha have dissipated on their own, which is a good thing anyway.
After Shisui returned to the village yesterday, in the Hokage's office, he simultaneously provided evidence to the Fugaku clan leader and the clan's jounin, as well as the Hokage and his advisors, proving that this incident was the result of a crazy Sansho Koga of Amegakure Village.
, finally extinguished the fire that was about to ignite the explosive barrel.
Of course, he was also responsible for the murder of Sanshou Koga.
As far as the village is concerned, the foreign enemy is dead, and all it needs to do is find an explanation from Hanzo and compensate the Uchiha.
For a clan, the enemy is dead and the other party is the son of a demigod in the ninja world, which is acceptable.
As a result, Fugaku and the third generation shook hands and made peace, the iron curtain in the village temporarily collapsed, Konoha returned to normal operations, and Shisui became a hero of the clan, just like he did during the Great Ninja War.
But neither the clan nor the village knows the truth of this matter.
But right now, this Uchiha hero is apologizing to the Fugaku couple.
He said that Yiyong's injury was caused by an accident when his shadow clone took Yiyong away while he was fighting the enemy.
On the second floor, in Yiyong's own room, he was listening to the news from the Kingdom of Sichuan.
"Now that everyone has detoxified and woke up, all we need to do is remove that thing."
Yiyong thought for a while and asked, "Does Xingshou Lang have enough money?"
If it wasn't enough, he would have to borrow some from his mother.
"Sir Anjuro caught a strange fish in the river and rescued a businessman's son from the fish's belly. As a result, he received a large sum of money as a thank you! You don't have to worry about money anymore!"
"Is that guy okay?"
"To live, just to never see fish again!"
"Oh." Yiyong lowered his eyelids, "What a pity."
After all, he likes to eat fish the most.
Yao continued: "Although those children are awake now, the operations have not yet been performed, and they all have serious heart knots.
"Sir Xingjuro plans to meet you again after arranging the children! Please wait a little longer!"
Yiyong nodded in understanding.
As for the victims, Giyuu usually left them to the hidden troops to deal with, but Anjuro likes to start well and end well when time is not urgent.
"Sir Yiyong, the news has been brought, so I will take my leave and will not bother you again next time."
After saluting, he immediately flew away.
From here to Kawa no Kuni, it takes a day and a half for the ninja to move at full speed.
But for the crow, whose speed is far faster than that of ordinary crows, at a speed of 350 kilometers per hour, it can fly there in less than four hours. Communication between Giyu and Anjuro is quite convenient.
"I just don't know if I can turn the crow into a psychic beast..."
That way messages can be delivered faster.
Just when he was thinking about asking Shisui at night, Sasuke came in.
He jammed the soles of his feet into the gap in the paper door and pushed it open. He held a tray with drinks and food on it in both hands, with a proud smile on his face.
He was happy, not just gloating over the injury to Yong Yong.
In fact, when I saw Yiyong last night, he cried as if he was the injured one.
The reason why Sasuke looks like this now is because he finally had the opportunity to take care of Giyuu!!!
He is obviously the older brother, but every time he goes outside, the clan members will ask: "Sasuke, where is your twin brother?"
Sometimes when his father leaves the two of them at home, he directly tells Giyuu: "Keep an eye on Sasuke!"
It can be seen that the dignity of being an elder brother has long since disappeared under Yiyong's careful care.
But today is the day for him to turn around. He wants to repay what Yiyong did to him.
"I made something special for you, Yiyong."
Sasuke placed the tray on the floor and pointed it with his fingers triumphantly: "There are fried eggs, sausages, boiled potatoes, and a glass of orange juice, but I squeezed it out with my own hands."
He showed his yellow-orange palm to Yiyong, obviously treating it as evidence like a medal.
"Why did you do it..."
Yiyong glanced at the ingredients one by one and felt that they looked pretty good, "I just have a problem with my legs."
As he spoke, he moved his arms.
The doctor came yesterday.
Because Giyuu's wound is still growing well, and Uchiha Mikoto is by his side, it is impossible for the medical ninja to use palm senjutsu to stimulate a child's cell division. According to judgment, his legs will have to be half smaller if they need to rely on medicine to recover naturally.
moon.
However, the contusion on the upper body is almost healed.
"It would be outrageous if anyone knew about letting patients cook! I don't want to be criticized."
What Sasuke said was reasonable, he crossed his arms and said condescendingly: "During this period, just accept my care honestly! Humph!"
"..."
[Why do good things have to be said in a bad person’s tone?]
Giyuu didn't know how to respond, so he could only lower his head and reach for the chopsticks, but Sasuke got there first.
"what you do?!"
He stared at Yiyong warily, then picked up the fried egg and handed it to Yiyong's mouth.
"Mom told you to move less. Leave these to me. Come on, open your mouth -"
Yiyong had no choice but to open his mouth wide and take a bite.
He chewed carefully at first, but after a few times, his teeth gradually stopped clenching.
His eyes gradually became dark, a rumble came from his throat, and he swallowed the food directly.
"Is it tasty?"
Sasuke leaned forward excitedly, his dark eyes widening. It was obvious that he didn't want any answer that didn't suit his needs.
"..." Yiyong thought about it for a while and asked, "Why isn't mom cooking?"
"Shisui has made you like this. Mom is accepting his apology."
Sasuke's attention was only distracted for a moment, but he immediately returned to his original position and asked the question again: "Is it delicious?"
Giyu knew that this was another question similar to Inuzuka's "Do you like cats or dogs?" Once answered truthfully, there would be unpredictable consequences.
"Did you eat it yourself?"
"I ate the leftovers from last night."
Sasuke frowned, "Besides, I made it specially for you, what's the point of eating it yourself?"
The third time, he asked: "How is it? Do you think it tastes good?"
This time, there was no smile on his face, and the suspicion in his eyes almost overflowed.
"...Why didn't I see Itachi?"
At the critical moment, Yiyong looked through the paper door and saw the door of the opposite room was closed, and asked this question.
Sure enough, when it came to Sasuke's most admired brother, his expression darkened and he put down the bowls and chopsticks.
"He hasn't come out today."
Sasuke scratched his head, looking troubled, "I went to look for him just now, but he was still sleeping. Once my father told me, I didn't dare to disturb him anymore."
Then, he stared into Yiyong's eyes and asked, "Besides your injury, did your brother encounter anything bad this time when you were outside?"
There was a trace of worry in Giyuu's eyes, a little worried about Itachi's mental state. Although he was not a ninja, he probably understood that although Itachi was not injured this time, he suffered an unprecedented psychological blow.
In fact, Itachi in the opposite room had already heard the conversation between the two. He was sitting slumped by the door with a dull look like a righteous hero.
This time when he went out on a mission, he suffered a total of three psychological blows.
The first level is that the senior who planned to sacrifice in order to keep the secret turned out to be a trap specially designed for him by Genbu.
At the beginning, he did reach an agreement with his father, intending to join the ANBU and become a high-level spy for the clan, but there was some reluctance in it.
But as the missions used by ANBU (actually Gen) to test him gradually unfold, the other party will also tell him before each mission what the significance of carrying out these assassination missions is -
This is all to eliminate all hidden dangers that threaten the village and peace in advance and eradicate them.
Ninjas are people who secretly protect the peace. Don't always think about doing anything honorable. It's because they remain anonymous, are willing to get their hands dirty, and always secretly deal with the enemies of the village that peace can be maintained.
Itachi was very resistant at first, but as the number of missions increased, he began to use this way of thinking subtly, and felt that he was indeed doing something meaningful.
If killing just one person prevents more people from dying, why not do it?
Even though he is an Uchiha genius, after this series of tasks, he has gradually been affected by this kind of thinking. After all, people must convince themselves to maintain psychological balance.
During this mission, when the ninja codenamed "Shen" decided to sacrifice himself, Itachi, who experienced this situation for the first time, was deeply touched.
However, as Shisui's illusion revealed all the truth and proved that this so-called sacrifice was just an emotional trap specially created for him by the root organization, the most important thing in Itachi's spirit as a human being - trust, was completely broken.
Already.
He remembered what Shisui said to him during the jounin exercise three years ago - "Among so many people in the village, the only one I can trust is you."
Although he was moved at the time, he still thought it was a bit exaggerated. But now he understands the deeper meaning of this sentence.
After experiencing this incident, he could no longer trust ANBU and root ninjas.
Many conspiracies are arranged based on people's inherent weaknesses. No matter how powerful your eyes are, there is still a possibility of being involved in them under such careful planning.
Now, how to fulfill the promise to his father and how to become a ninja? Itachi, who once thought he had the answer, fell into deep doubt.
The second level is when "Shen" committed suicide with a detonating talisman, but almost killed Yiyong.
Giyuu didn't take his injury seriously, but Itachi couldn't do that. After all, it was a stone slab weighing more than ten tons that was smashed directly.
If it were him now, there would be absolutely no chance of survival. Although "Shen" was the instigator, if he hadn't been too naive and trusted these people and led them all the way there, none of this would have happened.
Giyuu almost died in his own hands. Thinking of this, Itachi couldn't even pick up his ninja sword these days.
From now on, he may no longer be able to trust his own judgment as he did in the past.
As for the third level, it is the righteous anger.
Yiyong won't lie. He said he won't be angry about being smashed, so that's absolutely not true.
But why, he couldn't figure it out, and Yiyong didn't say anything. He only knew that on the way home, Yiyong didn't say a word, and didn't mention what happened to him. His degree of isolation was far higher than usual.
But when he thought about facing younger brothers like this in the future, Itachi only felt that his future was bleak.
This time, the Rain Kingdom and his party...
Itachi Uchiha lost his trust in others, his self-confidence, and even his brother's favor.
Under three consecutive blows, not to mention a young boy like him who had just entered puberty, even an adult ninja would fall into a mental crisis like a collapse.
At this moment, he was sticking it on the paper door because he wanted to know at least the last point, that is, how he should remedy the relationship with Yiyong.
"You just said something happened to him 'again'. What do you mean?"
Yiyong asked: "Has this happened before?"
"Um……"
Sasuke recalled, "It was the day my mother came back from a long-term mission. My brother originally said he wanted to practice shuriken with me, but he was almost injured by me. He was in a bad state that day, and he looked very worried.
When I came back yesterday, it looked very much like..."
"At that time, I asked him if he had encountered anything unhappy, but he didn't tell me. Instead, he asked me a question."
"what is the problem?"
Yiyong also remembered that day.
He teleported with water and appeared next to Itachi, but the latter subconsciously drew his sword...
"My brother asked me, if I create a small disaster, it is possible to avoid a bigger disaster. What will I do?"
Sasuke looked at Giyu curiously.
"The Ninja School starts tomorrow, so maybe we will take this question. Giyu, do you know the answer to this question?"
Yiyong fell into silence.
Uchiha Itachi, who was close to the door, held his breath, waiting for his brother's answer.
