Chapter Ninety-Eight: Ten Fists and Swords, Eight Feet Mirror
The overcast sky, the continuous drizzle, the ground was piled up by the rain into countless puddles of different depths, and in the thick mist, Ling and Itachi looked at each other.
The same scarlet eyes, the same weird magata, but the difference is that Itachi's handsome face is expressionless, but Ling Ru's picturesque beauty reveals a hint of sarcasm.
"Itachi, are you too self-righteous?"
Gently raising his hand, Ling stroked half of his face, and the gaze between his fingers stared at the weasel opposite, "Why should I agree to your request?" ”
Itachi was speechless, looked at Ling silently, pulled up the arm hanging from the collar and put it back into Xiao's robe, "Remember what I said?" ”
Ling Wenyan raised his eyebrows, did not speak, and looked at the weasel thoughtfully.
"No matter what kind of change is not limited by the rules, but it belongs to us, I hope you can express it to me, not Sasuke!"
Finally, in the face of Ling's provocation, Itachi changed his tone, not in such a deep and thick voice, but as gloomy and hoarse as when he faced Sasuke after killing the whole clan.
Ling was stunned, as if looking at the weasel a little unfamiliarly, and the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked with interest, "It's so interesting."
Looking at Itachi, Ling guessed as if he had seen this person for the first time, "I thought you had nothing but writing wheels, but I didn't expect you to be able to exert this kind of momentum, and the so-called purpose is your only failure!" ”
can kill parents but can't kill younger brothers, the same is the bond of blood, is there such a big difference? But it's this difference that makes me do it!
"Ling" Weasel whispered, clearly seeing the change in the expression in Ling's eyes, and the originally expressionless face outlined a strange smile.
"You've changed, you're not the Ling I knew when I was in the Uchiha clan."
With a chuckle, Itachi said something that surprised Ling.
Changed? Of course, of course I've changed! I used to be a waste that could be defeated by your eyes, but now I am a strong person who can kill you!
"Do you think I mean your power by change?" The kaleidoscope's eyes unexpectedly reflected Ling's face, and Itachi seemed to see Ling's heart by relying on these eyes.
"You used to have nothing in your eyes, eager and resistant to battle, and when you were lonely, there was only yourself in those eyes, but now it's different"
Ling Wenyan frowned, a flash of sharpness flashed in his eyes!
"That's right, that's the kind of look in your eyes." Itachi groaned and looked at Ling's strange eyes quietly, "In the past, you only had yourself in your eyes, even if you were a ninja of Konoha or Uchiha, as long as you were in front of you, you would not hesitate to erase it, but now you are not in your eyes, there are deep feelings and nostalgia." In the past, you may have been able to defeat with strength, but now, compared to you, who didn't care about anything before, your weakness is obvious! Ling was stunned, the rare softness and warmth in his eyes, this was an emotion that he had never shown to Bai and Jun Malu, but now because of his dead brother, he was weak!
The two lives are lonely, and Ling has obtained feelings that he can die for in this world that he thinks is hypocritical, just like ordinary people face the feelings of their parents and brothers, when this kind of bloodline relationship encounters danger, he can spare his life to survive! And the lonely Ling cares more about this kind of feeling that he has never touched but gets! It seems that in the original book, Sasuke and Naruto fought in the Valley of the End, Sasuke's words, how do you understand the pain of losing when you have nothing?!
Now Ling is like Naruto, who has been recognized but lost, but Ling is not as hot-blooded as Naruto, so charismatic and infectious.
"Itachi, you're so annoying!"
was said to be the central matter, Ling Bu's evil was born from his heart, and an urge to kill the weasel stirred in his heart!
"Don't you deny it?" Itachi bowed his head slightly, his inquiring eyes still the same, "It's true that no one wants to admit their weaknesses, especially for ninjas, but from other perspectives, it's also a kind of human growth, whether he wants it or not. ”
Grow? Indeed, people are from ignorance to know how to cherish the family around them, and when they become parents, the deep maternal love and fatherly love will be deeply experienced.
"That's the end of the boring conversation!" Ling's voice was gloomy, "It's true that as you said, Lie is a bond that I can't erase, but does this have anything to do with our conversation?" How to look at this relationship and how to face it is my problem, and it is not your turn to interject. ”
Ling was a little angry, he didn't know how Itachi knew about Lie, but in Ling's heart, he couldn't tell the severity, Itachi, who participated in the slaughter of the Uchiha clan, actually said such a thing in front of him, did he have the qualifications?
"Isn't it boring? I don't think so. Itachi shook his head, thin droplets of water waving from the tail of his hair, "It's because of your changes that we can continue to talk, if you're still the Uchiha Ling I once knew, I'm afraid we won't be able to talk about anything so face-to-face." ”
Ling Buyan's eyes narrowed slightly, "Really?" So what? Do you want to fight? With your body and eyes now"
"Indeed, I have no chance of winning in the face of you now." Itachi said frankly, bluntly, "Now you, even if I have no physical problems, I'm afraid you are not an opponent, but there are some things that you must do knowing that there is no result, even if you know that this is a dead end, but there is no choice." ”
Ling Wenyan was stunned, looking at Itachi's gaze with deep suspicion and incomprehension.
Itachi's mind is broader than Ling's, and his vision is more transcendent, Ling only cares about Lie, and Itachi cares about Konoha in addition to Sasuke, the country of fire, and the world! From a macro perspective, Itachi erased the chance of a possible outbreak of war, although that would be unfair to the Uchiha.
For Ling, his patriotic feelings and views on the war are not as profound as Itachi's, from having nothing to feeling Lie's love for him, even the three generations of Hokage Sarutobi who taught him to protect him did not let Ling take it so deeply to heart, and this is the real difference between Itachi and Ling in addition to their love for their brothers.
Itachi's philosophy is to abandon the small family for everyone, Ling is only looking at the front of him, the existence of the surrounding can move him, and the illusory country and righteousness in the Hokage world will not let him touch, only Lie, only Lie, is the only emotion that can make Ling feel real and go to his heart!
"Itachi, do you know" gently touched his eyes, Ling's tone fluttered, "On that night, I got a qiē, but I also lost a qiē The desire to be strong and alive made me make a move that I can't forgive myself, the power of the writing wheel eye makes people desperate, it has nothing to do with the love that is said, but now, I was defeated in an instant when I faced you, and having these eyes left by myself and Lie can make people like you seek compromise and be convinced!" ”
"This has no love, and it has nothing to do with pupil power, I am me, I will only see what is in front of me, and I will never be able to give up my family for the sake of righteousness, and you are shameless in your heart."
"With me like this, can you still come and talk to me about Sasuke with peace of mind?!"
Itachi was silent, frowning. Ling, who was told the central thing in front of him, was a little arrogant and hideous, it was even more difficult to guess and grasp than before, killing him didn't have that strength, and compromise was not accepted, so was there any other possibility that Itachi could achieve his goal?
Struggling? Weasel! That's right, I struggled like this after being defeated by you, and now you can experience my feelings back then! Parents and the Uchiha clan can't make you struggle, but Sasuke can!
"Is that your answer?" To Ling's surprise, Itachi didn't get angry or had a lot of emotions, and his calm eyes revealed a look that he didn't expect.
"You seem surprised because of my calmness?" Looking at Ling's slightly pensive expression, Itachi spoke: "Indeed, I hope to be able to get your promise, but for Sasuke, how many variables can things be changed if you get your promise?" ”
Itachi is very serious and worried, and Ling's series of actions make things go too unexpected! Itachi didn't know Ling's purpose, nor did he know the true meaning of Ling's actions, but what really made Itachi care was what changes Ling's actions would bring to Konoha or the whole world! What if the world is not at peace because of Ling? What about the outbreak of war? In such a dangerous environment, Sasuke knows that not knowing the truth is worthless for his safety, Itachi hopes that Sasuke can rely on Konoha to protect himself, but if Konoha can't do this, Itachi doesn't care that Sasuke has other ways to achieve this goal, such as Ling!
In Itachi's memory, Ling has always been a person who is extremely power-seeking, and when he was in the Uchiha clan, Ling's diligent Itachi also saw it in his eyes, and that kind of almost compulsive self-urging made Itachi unable to understand what Ling was pursuing, and what was such a powerful power for. Birth, old age, sickness and death, this is the number of days, and it is beyond human power to disobey, although there are ghosts like the Great Snake Pill that exist, but the side effects of that kind of soul reincarnation are also obvious, even if Ling gets the things he dreamed of, he will leave him at the moment of death, and with Ling's qualifications, he will not be able to see these, is Ling another Great Snake Pill? If this is the case, Ling should not devote all his energy to the exercise of strength, but should do all kinds of inhumane realities, pursuing infinite secret methods, instead of pursuing strength like this, but Itachi believes that people have their own reasons for what they do, and Ling must use this power when he pursues power so much, so Itachi analyzed Ling's heart very clearly and calmly.
Sasuke will one day rely on his own eyes to screen a qiē, lies can deceive for a while but not for a lifetime, what I hope is that Sasuke will move forward on the ninja path that he really thinks, not the goal determined by being bewitched and used, no matter what path Sasuke takes in the future, what I have to do is to help him pave the way in front of him, and then it's up to him!
His heart was full of anticipation and determination, and Itachi looked at Ling and said indifferently but meaningfully: "With your current strength, it would seem ridiculous to make other agreements, so my request is not so absolute." ”
After a sigh of relief, Itachi continued: "Ten-fist sword, eight-foot mirror, this is the weapon and armor that Susanoh already has, I know that you must have your own worries in pursuit of power, in this case, I am willing to exchange these two items for you to take care of Sasuke." ”
"Not to hide from him or to bewitch him, but to let him determine his own path with the results of his own thinking"
"Ling, can you accept such a deal?"
