71 - Stone statue

Among the five children who met the conditions for the levy, of course, there was a share of Tsushima Shirakawa sitting next to Shizue Uchiha. He saw the gentle smile of the young lady beside him, and suddenly lost his previous extroverted demeanor, and couldn't help but look away shyly, thinking that it was Uchiha Shizun showing a good impression of him.

The other four boys behaved in the same way as Tsushima Shirakawa, turning their heads shyly, but secretly turned their heads back as the Uchiha listened carefully to Inoue's lecture and continued to watch her silently.

It seems that Shizune Uchiha will have to endure this blazing gaze from the monkey for several years......

After five lessons, Inoue stopped wielding his whip-wielding left hand and took a sip of water. He felt his enthusiasm for teaching rekindled, he had never taken five classes in a row before, because the students under the podium basically did not listen carefully, and could not understand what he was saying, even if he had said it extremely clearly and simply, one by one, the main points were separated, but it was a pity that this group of preparatory ninjas still dozed off, and those who should skip school continued to escape.

And the reason why Inoue can rekindle his passion today is the Uchiha Shizu, who has been listening carefully and taking notes in the audience. Her political status is much higher than Inoue's, and her extremely serious listening to the lecture greatly satisfies Inoue's vanity and makes him feel that she is recognized by her.

"It's time for lunch break, and in the afternoon we will start physical fitness classes as well as actual combat training and ninja throwing." Inoue picked up the cup on the table and took a sip of the cow and announced the lunch break, so that the students, who had been sleepy for a long time, suddenly came to their senses and walked out of the classroom with laughter and laughter.

Uchiha-san...... Can we eat together? Several girls stepped forward and said to Shizue Uchiha, who looked to be only a dozen years younger than their mother, and they thought for a long time about the use of the term "classmate".

"No, I'm with my brother." Uchiha Shizune said coldly, but her face was not like words, but she showed that smile to everyone, laughing and talking to the group of ninja reservists who would block guns and bullets for her in the future.

……

……

"Sister!" Sasuke saw Uchiha Shizue appear at the door of the class and shouted with some instinctive joy, but when he just said a word, he quickly suppressed his tone, feeling the pointing and surprised voices of his classmates behind him, and rushed towards Uchiha Shizu like a thief, not even thinking about whether her body was really as healthy as she said, holding her hand and running away.

The two walked through the corridor and through the small forest to the wide, uninhabited arena

"Whew." Uchiha Shizune gasped, a little unable to bear this sudden explosive sprint, she rubbed her left arm that was pulled hard, still maintained her tenderness to Sasuke, and said without annoyance: "Little Sasuke, I'm shy again." Or are you disgusting me? ”

The two had already run to the school's own martial arts arena, Sasuke looked at Uchiha Jing without panting, knowing how reckless his behavior was just now, he stepped forward with a red face and apologetic eyes to help Uchiha Jing smooth his breath, and then quickly denied it: "No! It is...... It is. ”

Sasuke, who doesn't know much about lying, blushed and didn't know what excuse to make, he was really afraid that his classmates would know that he had a frail and sickly older sister who was still in the first grade of the ninja school.

Sasuke didn't know that Shizune Uchiha had some say in Konoha's political circles, so he couldn't think of the point of being able to show off to others that he was proud of it, the only thing he could say...... I guess it's just 'my sister is gentle'.

And most importantly, he strongly opposes Shizuzu Uchiha, who has always been frail and sickly, even after being healed, to become a ninja and carry out missions in the future, fighting others.

He was extremely worried...... She will leave because of this, separated by yin and yang.

But at last night's family dinner, Shizue Uchiha was smiling and delighted when she announced the event, her bright eyes full of anticipation of being a ninja traveling the mountains and rivers. Sasuke tried to object, but was defeated by his sister's somewhat sad eyes. He couldn't refuse his sister's eyes, which seemed to contain decades of pain. But even so, he has to do everything he can to interfere with it, even if he will be disgusted by the Uchiha Shizun, he has to stop the other party from going to the battlefield.

Sasuke is only eight years old, and he has often received a cruel education about ninjas, and after witnessing his brother slaughter the family, he has a deep understanding of the cruelty of ninjas and the ninja world.

He was confident that he would stand out from the school and that he would be the strongest in Konoha, and with how hard he worked, he dared to assert it.

But there was one thing he didn't dare to say...... He didn't dare to say that he could become the strongest in the ninja world, and he didn't dare to guarantee that he could protect the last candle in the dark behind him in the continuous assassination and battle of other ninjas.

The breeze blew, and the woods not far away also rattled, intercepting the dust swept by the wind for the two of them. The branches of the tree, which had been covered with life and not yet yellowed, were scattered and passed in front of the two of them, obscuring the most important and expressive eyes of this picture.

Sasuke thought silently against the wind, the flush on his face gradually faded in the passage of time, calmly looked up at her pair of writing wheels that could never be actively closed, and said the words of adults in a childish voice, he promised: "I will work hard to become stronger, and I will keep practicing to become stronger to protect my sister, so ...... Please sister, don't be a ninja anymore. ”

As he spoke, his tone changed from calm at first, to high promise, and finally to a depressed plea, which was not even loud, but pleading.

Uchiha looked at Sasuke silently, looking at the toy she called her brother, and chuckled noncommittally, and in the end, he couldn't help revealing his true nature in front of Sasuke, and kept laughing wildly.

- She can't be moved anymore.

Uchiha Shizune wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, closed the roots of her mouth that had broken her appearance and temperament, and said calmly and viciously.

"Since you can't see the rivers and mountains, you can't see the night view of a foreign country, and you can't see the cloud forest there."

She stared at Sasuke with eyes full of malice, like a venomous snake crawling on the ground finally appearing, and informing the world of its existence, spreading its fangs, spilling venom from its teeth on Sasuke.

"Then take off my eyes, cut off my limbs, cut off my mouthpiece, and make that stone statue for men to see!"

God...... Are you satisfied?
