Chapter 665: Night Talk
The current desperate efforts, to some extent, are not only for a more ambitious future, but also not ......
He was whipping himself, paralyzing himself, and even hypnotizing himself, as if by doing so, he Fuyue would quickly fall asleep when he closed his eyes, without having to think about itβwhat about the blood-colored eyes full of resentment that the clansmen showed before they died?
"Fuyue, don't you sleep so late?"
The cool breeze of the night blew gently, and a soft female voice also sounded, and as the door curtain creaked, Fugaku's wife, Mikoto Uchiha, stepped into Fugaku's room from the courtyard and came to Fugaku's side lightly.
Underneath the dark bangs, there was a pair of bright eyes that were a little sleepy, she was wearing a black coat, and she was holding another coat in her hand, and when she saw Fu Yue indulging in a few cases and couldn't extricate herself, her face couldn't help but flash unspeakable pity.
"Can't sleep......" His thoughts were interrupted by his wife, Fu Yue couldn't help but sigh, rubbed his face with both hands, and looked at Mai Qin, with a hint of blame in his eyes: "Mei Qin, it's all like this, why don't you sleep yet?" You don't know your current body ......"
Seeing Fuyue ask herself in turn, Mai Qin unconsciously touched her lower abdomen, then slowly put her coat on Fuyue, leaned down and knelt next to her husband, and said with a slight smile:
"It's only been two or three months, and it's out of the way."
As soon as he finished speaking, without waiting for Fugaku to continue speaking, Mikoto quietly diverted the topic: "Fuyue, your complexion today is much better than before, is it because the progress on Hokage-sama's side is going well?" β
Looking at his wife's appearance, Fu Yue sighed helplessly, thought about it, and didn't persuade him anymore, so he simply replied: "Yes, I am the new leader of the root today, even if I think about it now, it is a little incredible." β
Saying that, Fu Yue smiled, as if he was really happy about his promotion, but the keen Mikoto still noticed a little unusual charm from Fu Yue's smile.
"Fuyue ......" hesitated for a moment, Mai Qin pursed her lips slightly, and a trace of complexity flashed in her eyes: "Is it worth it?" β
Without giving any comment on Fugaku's words, nor did he express any opinion on the so-called root leader, Maikoto's first sentence was such a seemingly inexplicable question, that is, this question made Fugaku's smile stiffen, and he unconsciously fell into a long silence.
Time seemed to pass for a moment, and it seemed like a long, long time had passed, and when he raised his head again, and looked at Mai Trin's pretty face, and looked at the pair of eyes that seemed to understand everything, Fugaku smiled again, but this time the smile was somewhat bitter, he opened his mouth, and a hoarse voice came from his throat:
"It's all come to this day, what else is worth it?"
Oh, yes......
From the moment he killed Uchiha with his own hands, he had already made his choice.
Even if he is the patriarch of the Uchiha, even if he loves his people deeply, even if he is very reluctant to kill his clan and become a cold-blooded executioner who is scolded by all the clansmen who survived, but for the future of the clan, but also for himself, Mikoto, and the future of the child in Mikoto's womb......
Is it worth it? Maybe it's worth it.
staring at her husband fixedly, savoring the other party's eyes, the helplessness and sadness contained in her tone, Meiqin was also silent for a long time, until the wind blowing outside the door blew her body, she came to her senses, and couldn't help but pull the coat she was wearing, and once again diverted the topic:
"Fugaku, your state today is very abnormal, do you mind telling me about any tasks that Hokage-sama has given you?"
At the end, he thoughtfully added: "Of course, if you feel very embarrassed, it's okay not to say it." β
Fu Yue took a deep breath and quickly adjusted his mentality, he wanted to open his mouth to refuse, but looking at his wife's caring eyes, when the words came to his mouth, he still involuntarily became:
"Mikoto, Hokage-sama wants to rectify the interior, wants to deal with a group of officials who are greedy for money, and achieve the purpose of deterring the management of the village, to be honest, I don't want to do this kind of work, but ......"
"But you can't help it, can you?" Meiqin lightly pursed her lips and picked up the unfinished words for Fuyue, seeing that her husband first nodded, and then began to sigh again, she thought for a moment and said:
"We Uchiha seem to have been doing this kind of offending thing all along, the previous garrison, the current roots, this seems to have never changed, Fugaku, do you say Hokage-sama is ......"
Hearing the implication in his wife's words, Fugaku decisively stretched out his hand, signaled Mikoto not to say any more, shook his head, and replied in a determined tone: "Although Hokage-sama has inflicted many hardships on my clan, and many of them have sacrificed for this, Mikoto, there is only one thing I can be sure of......"
"That is, Hokage-sama has no ill will towards our clan in essence, all his plans, all his actions, in the final analysis, are all for the sake of Konoha as a whole, not to deliberately target a certain ninja clan, a certain group of ninjas."
Looking at Mikoto's puzzled eyes, Fugaku's lips moved, but he still stopped his desire to reveal further information, eliminate the ninja class, evolve peacefully, and conquer the world......
He didn't dare to tell some of Lei Luo's ambitions, so as not to scare his wife, making Mikoto think that Hokage-sama was crazy, and by the way, he also felt that he was also crazy when he followed Hokage-sama all the way to the dark.
Although he does feel a little crazy on weekdays, after all, for the sake of Lei Luo's thoughts that can bring havoc to the world, Fu Yue thinks that his spirit is indeed a little abnormal.
But...... No matter how terrifying Lei Luo's ideals were, how much bloodshed and sacrifice there would be in the process, in the end, Lei Luo, that man's vision was never limited to a small Konoha Village.
In his eyes, the whole world is present.
Narrow-minded ethnicity, the struggle in the village, the vigilance against the power of the writing wheel, and the so-called problems left over from history......
Lei Luo doesn't care about these things, what he cares about is the general direction, the change of the times, and the competition between countries, this is Fu Yue's view of Lei Luo, and it is also the fundamental reason why he can make up his mind to move closer to Lei Luo.
Just because, the Uchiha clan, in the eyes of Lei Luo, is not fundamentally different from ordinary ninja clans, and the Hokage-sama looks at everyone equally, as long as he Fuyue is willing to pay, then there will be gains, the reason is so simple.
And for now, this is exactly what happened.
Other than that, as for the future...... Whatever.
