Chapter 67: Let's Eat First
"These guys are going to bully civilian ninjas like us..... Really, do we owe them, none of them have a good face. ”
"Very arrogant! Last time I was on a mission with an Uchiha, I was disgusted with me for delaying things, saying that the people of the Uchiha clan would never be like me, really, it's unpleasant! ”
It seems that the topic of Uchiha resonated with the people at the same table, and the ninjas who were with him opened up the conversation one by one.
"By the way, you all know that during the Nine-Tails Rebellion, the Nine-Tails were controlled by the Uchiha clan's Sharingan."
"Impossible, right? The Uchiha clan shouldn't have done such a thing....."
"Oh, who knows if there is some madness in that clan, I really doubt that they will one day do something to their own people. Besides, even if they weren't, they didn't have the strength to do that night, I didn't see the Uchiha's men go head-on against the Nine-Tails! ”
"No, everyone is a ninja from the same village......"
"Who do they treat us as their own? One by one, the mouth is full of our Uchiha clan, where do you think of yourself as a part of Konoha? ”
"What else did Konoha say that he treated them badly and was unfair to them, phew, the guards are all Uchiha people, isn't it powerful enough?"
"That is, every day under the guise of the guard, I shake my majesty everywhere......"
The more people at the table talked, the more indignant they became, whether they had it or not, hearsay or what they saw with their own eyes, they all vented it loudly.
Uchiha's expression gradually sank, and he was silent without speaking.
Several people at the same table looked at each other, and it was still Sunset Red who whispered to comfort them, saying that those people were just drunk and talking nonsense, but Uchiha Shisui knew it.
Some of the remarks may be exaggerated, or they may blame the severity of the Uchiha clan because they made mistakes but don't want to admit it, but some of them are real, and they have changed in the Uchiha clan.
With Konoha's suppression of the Uchiha clan, the hawkish forces in the clan have swelled extraordinarily, and most ninjas have a grudge against Konoha in their hearts, and even with them, they rarely have a good face for ordinary Konoha ninjas.
They think that their clan shed blood for Konoha and which war, which mission did not take the lead and died at the front line?
How many geniuses went to the battlefield but did not return, how many relatives were separated by yin and yang, for Konoha, they were benevolent and righteous.
But with the cauldron of the Nine-Tails Rebellion being buckled on the Uchiha clan, many civilians in Konoha and even some ninjas began to be hostile to the Uchiha clan because of this, which made the proud Uchiha clan more and more unacceptable.
You look down on me, how can I look down on you?
The proud Uchiha clan has never learned to speak well, and you look down on me? Okay, that master is proud of me, do you like to watch it, garbage!
In the face of exclusion, misunderstandings and targets that overwhelm them, they can only respond with a tougher attitude.
As a result, more Uchiha people are really becoming less and less likable.
Proud, arrogant, dissatisfied, hostile, and even a very small number of Uchiha because it was really unbearable, began to secretly retaliate, targeting ninjas who usually have bad remarks about the Uchiha clan, using the identity of the guard to punish and find trouble.
This may only be a small probability event, but as long as one Uchiha person does this, it is the Uchiha clan as a whole who is responsible for it.
"Uchiha's group just leave Konoha and forget it!"
With an unbearable cathartic complaint.
"Seniors, please pay attention to the radical remarks."
Unexpectedly, even the Uchiha Shisui didn't make a sound, just a moment of sadness and silent patience.
Hinata Yuzuru got up suddenly, the white eyes behind the glasses couldn't see any emotion, and said politely and softly: "In any case, please retract some of your remarks." ”
The ninja at that table was stunned, looked left and right, and didn't see who was speaking, so someone got up drunk and said quite unpleasantly: "Who ......?"
When he stood up, he saw Hinata Yuzuru, who had already stood up straight, across the table, and he couldn't speak.
A small child with a forehead guard.
The white eyes stared at him calmly from behind the lenses.
It's not that you're intimidated by any momentum, it's just that arguing with a child or venting your anger on a child is not something an adult should do.
Not to mention, the young man in front of him can remember who it is just by thinking about it.
"It's the genius of the Hyuga family, Hyuga's Yuzuru....." someone whispered.
Hinata Yuzuru just looked at the ninja, and his tone was still gentle: "Maybe what some of the Uchiha clan did is indeed a bit excessive, but some people can't represent the ninjas of the entire Uchiha clan." ”
"They are part of the village, and they are still our trusted partners on the battlefield, so if we don't want to trust them, why should we ask them to trust us wholeheartedly and treat us kindly?"
It was obviously a shame to be lectured by a child, and the shame and anger of the irritable flush made half of his alcohol taste disappear, and the ninja opened his mouth, and finally had nothing to say, so he could only say: "I also know, just drink too much and talk about it." ”
He was fooling around and didn't want to dwell on it too much.
Hinata Yuzuru said very seriously: "Please retract some of your remarks, the Uchiha clan, before they took the initiative to defect from Konoha, will always be a part of Konoha, and no one can deny their contribution to Konoha." ”
"I see, I apologize, okay!" The ninja sighed depressedly, and while beckoning the waiter to settle the bill, he said loudly, "I drank too much today and said something excessive, and if everyone is uncomfortable, I apologize." ”
"Hinata, I apologize to you too, I'm sorry for letting you hear this, I'm sorry! I shouldn't have said anything to get the Uchiha clan out of Konoha, you're right. ”
After the ninja finished speaking, after checking out, the group of people at the same table left quickly, not wanting to stay where they were, but looking at Hinata Yuzuru's expressions were a little complicated, and even a few people were a little ashamed.
It's not that I'm ashamed of saying bad things about the Uchiha, it's just that being seen by a child talking about others behind his back really doesn't have a good impact.
In particular, Hinata's speech was sonorous and powerful, speaking purely from an objective standpoint, and everyone understood the reasoning, which made it even more obvious that they were already adult ninjas, and they were becoming more and more narrow-minded.
But...... The Uchiha clan is really unlikable! They're not lying! It's just that you really shouldn't talk about your colleagues in public.
Hinata sighed and sat down again, but the Uchiha reached out and patted him on the shoulder.
He smiled, as if the words of others had turned into an inconsequential breeze, and said softly, "Thank you...... Do you really think so? ”
Hinata Yuzuru glanced at the ninjas at the same table who were silent because of his speech, and each of them reflected, and his voice was calm but firm: "Yes." ”
"I firmly believe that even if one day, the Uchiha clan will do crazy things and stand against me or the vast majority of people, Shizumi-senpai will stand firmly on my side....... As long as our beliefs remain the same, they remain unchanged. ”
"I also firmly believe that in the Uchiha clan, there are not a few people like Shisui predecessors."
Hinata Yuzuru and Uchiha Shisui looked at each other, and their eyes seemed to meet something.
Maitkai spoke suddenly, his expression serious, interrupting the two of their eye contact with extreme preciousness.
"I'm sorry to stop the water."
He slammed to his feet, fists clenched.
Maitkai's sudden move left everyone in the audience confused for a moment.
Maitkai's face was very bad, he had a calm face, and his tone was self-reproachful and ashamed: "I have always had a somewhat extreme opinion of the Uchiha people before, and this may be no different from them. ”
"Yuzuru, I didn't expect that I, who am so much older than you, can't see the simple truth you said."
"The Uchiha clan is the Konoha clan, they are our partners, it's just such a simple truth, but we still need you to wake up........ I'm ashamed of my predecessors! ”
Maitkai raised his head, tears streaming down his eyes: "You who can stand up and speak up for your partner are indeed my indispensable best friend in my life!" ”
Everyone stared blankly at him.
Maitkai raised his hands, raised his head, tears and snot hung on his face, and stared at Hinata Yuzuru affectionately: "Yuzuru!! ”
He seemed to want to wait for Hinata Yuzuru to stretch out his hand and give him a passionate hug full of youthful blood.
Hinata Yuzuru stayed where she was, blinking.
He was silent for a moment.
Raise your chopsticks.
"Let's eat first."
