Chapter 165: Sasuke's Enlightenment! Direct "open card" Ningci (plus more)
The Uchiha clan was exterminated last night, so maybe it's not a good time to have a banquet?
But Whitebeard obviously doesn't care about this kind of thing.
If he wants to have a banquet, he will have a banquet!
Since I have taken in a daughter, let's have a banquet with the theme of wine and meat, and tell everyone with great fanfare!
"Haha! Looks like we'll be a family from now on, Izumi. A sudden voice sounded behind Izumi Uchiha.
She looked back in surprise with tears in her eyes.
Izumi found that behind him was a stop water that appeared at some point.
Next to the stop water, is the big sister named Uzumaki Feng!
These two people, Izumi Uchiha is very familiar with.
One is the Uchiha senior in the spring.
The other is the benefactor who healed her.
Izumi Uchiha also saw a man with a shark face, a child with blond hair, a child with red hair, and two children with black hair.
Oh, no......
Only then did she notice that one of the little girls with "black" hair was actually a dark purple hair color. In the dark, this hair color looks too much like black hair.
The other party actually has a pair of white eyes!
Could this be the Hyuga clan?
"Hello! My name is Naruto Uzumaki! ”
Naruto gave a thumbs up directly to the Uchiha Izumi, and the smile on his face was very bright and happy: "Hehehehe, Daddy has another daughter." Right now...... The official members of our Whitebeard Pirates, including Daddy, are already nine of them! The growth rate is very gratifying! ”
Izumi Uchiha's eyes widened, and the information revealed by Naruto's words had already made her guess a lot of things.
"You are ...... too"
"That's right!" Naruto grinned and said, "We're also Daddy's sons and daughters!" This big sister is called Uzumaki Feng, this is Uzumaki Aroma, this is Hinata Hinata, this is Bai, this is dried persimmon oni shark, this is Uchiha Shisui. ”
Naruto took the initiative to introduce the names of his family to Izumi Uchiha.
"I know your name is Izumi Uchiha, hehe......"
Naruto scratched his head and said, "Because Shisui mentioned it to me a long time ago." ”
"Oh yes!"
Naruto seemed to remember something again: "You shouldn't know yet, what is Daddy's name, right?" ”
Izumi Uchiha was about to say he knew.
But she suddenly reacted again.
She only remembered Whitebeard's nickname as Whitebeard, but her memory of Whitebeard's real name was very vague. I only vaguely remember, once glanced at the bounty order, but did not remember.
I have the impression that my father's name is very long.
At least five or six words.
Izumi was suddenly a little embarrassed.
"Hahaha! It's all right! Naruto was embarrassed and said, "When I first met my father, I couldn't remember his name...... But now I'm sure I can remember it clearly! Daddy's name is 'Edward Newgate'! ”
"He's the best dad in the world, and he's the best dad in the ninja world, there's no one! You'll never regret joining the Whitebeard Pirates, and you won't regret being family with us! ”
Naruto's enthusiastic words made Uchiha Izumi find a sense of belonging to the Whitebeard Pirates.
After all, Izumi is still very worried, although his father has accepted him as his daughter, how can he get along with his new family?
Naruto's enthusiasm made Izumi Uchiha know that he didn't seem to have to worry about these things.
Izumi wiped the tears from her face again.
This time it's finally wiped clean.
"Edward Newgate, is that Daddy's name? I remembered! That ......"
She bowed ninety degrees to Naruto and the others, "Then I'll ask you for more advice from now on!" ”
"Izumi, don't be so reserved."
Although he couldn't see Izumi's movements, he could still guess what Izumi was doing by Izumi's tone and words.
He smiled and said, "You are the protagonist of tonight's banquet of the Whitebeard Pirates, you have to show a little confidence as the protagonist of the banquet!" ”
"And ......"
Shisui paused and continued, "This welcome banquet will allow all the surviving Uchiha clansmen to participate. ”
The phrase "stop water" is also very informative.
Although Whitebeard only accepted Izumi Uchiha as his daughter, he did not accept other Uchiha survivors as his children for the time being.
But his words already indicate that the Whitebeard Pirates have decided to shelter those Uchiha people.
That's why they were invited to the banquet as well.
Let them join in on this feast too!
So......
The entire temporary station of the Whitebeard Pirates began to become lively, and the sadness and depression that were still haunting were swept away by a banquet that Whitebeard had forcibly held.
Because there are a lot of people participating in this banquet today, there must be a total of eighty or ninety people.
The wine and meat that the Whitebeard Pirates are buying in Konoha these days......
It's all been moved out by the ghost shark.
There must be at least several tons of meat!
There must be tons of wine, too!
Clusters of bonfires burn in the makeshift station of the Whitebeard Pirates.
Looking down from the sky, it looks like a spark.
The survivors of the Uchiha clan who were pulled into the banquet did not expect to be at their saddest and most helpless moment...... The Whitebeard Pirates pulled them into the feast.
One by one, the adult Uchiha people were gulping down alcohol to numb the sadness in their hearts.
Borrow wine to commemorate a deceased loved one.
It also ushered in a new life through wine.
Minors who can't drink alcohol are holding a glass of juice, and they don't really understand all this at a very young age.
Many of them don't even know why their parents are gone.
Why did they Uchiha start to wander around?
The doubts in my heart were not answered.
After all, some truths are too cruel for them.
But the enthusiastic atmosphere of the banquet still made their dazed and helpless little faces finally show a little reassuring smile.
Even the youngest child looked curiously at the roasted meat in front of him with a pacifier in his mouth.
At this time...... Sasuke crouched next to a tent.
This was his temporary accommodation.
As the son of the patriarch of the Uchiha clan, Sasuke is a very special one, because his brother is Uchiha Itachi.
Even so, many people know that Sasuke is also the innocent one, and even the one who is very miserable for the Uchiha clan.
But anger from the Uchiha Itachi is always inevitable.
Although the tribesmen held back, they didn't say much.
But he didn't take the initiative to communicate with Sasuke.
It seems that there is a line with him, and this line may disappear over time, but it is obviously not tonight.
Sasuke sat alone.
It was precisely because of this loneliness that this tent behind him was assigned to him alone, and he could live in it alone.
No one lived with him.
No one sat next to him.
Until......
Bang Bang –
A small hand rested on the shoulder of his left hand, and Sasuke suddenly felt someone come up to him.
The other party also had a smell of barbecued cumin, and when he spoke, the smell of cumin became even stronger: "Look who I found?" It's Naruto Uzumaki's best buddy - Sasuke Uchiha! ”
"Hee-hee-hee!" Naruto wrapped one hand around Sasuke's shoulders and grabbed a large handful of skewers with the other, which he handed to Sasuke: "I baked it for you myself!" Welcome to the Whitebeard Pirates! ”
Naruto regarded the Uchiha clan as vassals of the Pirates.
Of course, this is also the case.
This is not a shame for the current Uchiha clan.
Now that there is a powerful force that dares to keep the Uchiha clan, it is already the greatest luck of the Uchiha clan.
After all......
Itachi is not a person who dares to provoke an Uchiha Itachi who almost single-handedly wiped out the entire Uchiha clan.
For many ninja in Konoha Village......
The Uchiha has become synonymous with "misfortune" and "bad luck".
Who made their experience too miserable.
"Extermination" overnight!
“…… I'm not hungry. Sasuke stared at the skewer in front of him, his throat squirming up and down, but he was a little embarrassed.
The son of the patriarch of the dignified Uchiha clan fell into this situation.
Sasuke still has a huge gap in his heart.
He turned his head away and forced himself not to look at the skewers.
"Oh? Are you sure? ”
It's a pity that all of Sasuke's thoughts can't be hidden, because his emotions are written on his face.
Naruto smiled, "If you don't eat it, then I'll eat it!" ”
Naruto deliberately ate a skewer.
And I eat it with my mouth shut.
"Whoa—"
"Whoa—"
"Whoa—"
"Gollum......" Sasuke's stomach finally couldn't resist the temptation of this food, and he tried very hard not to stare at the handful of skewers, but his eyes didn't listen to him.
Sasuke snatched the handful of skewers, pinched one and stuffed it into his mouth. At once, I stuffed all the barbecue meat on the skewers into my mouth and chewed vigorously.
It was as if he was not eating a skewer of yakiniku, but an Itachi Uchiha.
There are more than 30 skewers in a large handful of skewers.
Sasuke's wind swept through the clouds.
Eat it all.
The slight satiety of "......" made Sasuke breathe a sigh of relief, and also swept away a lot of gloom in his heart.
"It's delicious." Sasuke said this for some reason, "Thank you, Naruto. ”
"Of course, I've been practicing my barbecue skills for more than a year! Moreover...... We're best friends, what's there to be thankful for? If you are hungry and I have the ability to give you food, then I will share it with you, isn't that right? ”
Naruto's words were reasonable, logical and self-consistent.
"You're not a wreck who has been hit and collapsed. You've always had the motivation and determination to surpass me Sasuke Uchiha! Naruto's smile was contagious, "All of you deserve to be treated so sincerely!" ”
Naruto's attitude was compared to that of the Uchiha survivors, who did not discriminate against him, but chose not to communicate with him......
It's just one in the sky and one on the ground.
Sasuke doesn't really blame those clansmen. Because it was indeed Uchiha Itachi who killed their family, and Uchiha Itachi was indeed his brother, this relationship could not be broken.
But Sasuke didn't expect that he had fallen into this situation.
Naruto was also able to treat himself with such sincerity.
It is impossible not to be moved.
"Naruto......" Sasuke took a deep breath, he turned his head to look at Naruto next to him, "I know you really want me to come out of the shadows last night...... But as long as that man lives for a day, I will never come out of the shadows. Because I am shrouded in shadows, I can always maintain my hatred for him. ”
"He? Your brother? Naruto said the name.
Before, when Izumi Uchiha said the word brother in front of Sasuke, Sasuke's reaction was very big.
Now, Sasuke didn't even know why he wasn't reacting.
Is it that he and Naruto are too familiar?
Is Naruto more special?
"Hmm!" However, Sasuke didn't think much of it.
He nodded, looked down at the campfire in front of him, and replied, "Only by killing him will I be able to come out of the shadows; Only by killing him can I draw a line with him and gain the approval of the other clansmen. ”
"And what are you going to do?" Naruto asked.
Sasuke said in a serious tone, "I need to become stronger, to become stronger at all costs, to become stronger than I am now, to become stronger than that man!" Then, kill him again! ”
"Stronger?" Naruto suddenly realized.
"Sasuke." Naruto said, "Do you have the courage to give up your life completely?" Even in the process of getting stronger...... You may not have had time to kill that man before you were put to death because you wanted to be stronger. ”
Naruto's words were a bit tongue-twisting, but Sasuke pondered for a few seconds to figure out what he meant.
"If I die before I kill him, then my soul who goes to the underworld will never succumb to death."
Sasuke clenched his fists: "Even if I die, my soul will crawl out of the underworld and drag that person down to die together!" ”
"I want him to see his father, his mother, and all his people who he killed!"
Become stronger, get revenge, and grow the Uchiha clan.
It was the goal of young Sasuke's heart.
"Hahaha! Then you will train with me tomorrow! ”
Naruto warmly invited: "I, Naruto Uzumaki, will make you a special training plan that suits you!" You have to be careful! This is a special training that could kill you! ”
"Special training ......" Sasuke knew that Naruto had become so powerful so quickly after Whitebeard's torture-style special training.
Sasuke also knew how exaggerated the intensity of this special training was.
Because he had emulated Naruto, he lasted less than half an hour, and his muscles were sore, and he lay at home for several days after returning home.
Sasuke is actually a little apprehensive.
But......
The hatred for Uchiha Itachi in his heart allowed him to overcome this anger in his heart. Since you are not even afraid of risking your own life, what are you afraid of torture and murder?
"Good !!"
As time passed, the banquet of the Whitebeard Pirates lasted from eight o'clock in the evening to two in the morning.
The protracted feast caused many Uchiha to dissipate some sadness.
It also made them accept the protection of the Whitebeard Pirates.
It also made them recognize the Whitebeard Pirates.
It is worth mentioning ...... Although Whitebeard only received two Uchihas, Izumi Uchiha and Uchiha Shisui.
But when many Uchiha people call Whitebeard, they don't call Whitebeard-sama, nor Captain Whitebeard.
They actually shouted "Daddy" as well.
Fortunately, Whitebeard is old enough.
Otherwise, some of the Uchiha people who are not too old call Whitebeard "Daddy", and the picture is not ordinarily strange.
……
Hyuga Clan Station.
"Lord Hinata, the elder of the Hyuga Great Sect and his two middle ninja guards have been missing for two days."
A member of the Hyuga clan reports to Hinata.
After all, Hyuga Dazong is also a big man in Hinata, and it must be a big deal that he suddenly disappeared.
After learning about this.
Hinata Hinata frowned: "The Great Sect Elder is gone?" He was ...... before he disappeared Did you leave any letters behind? Did you go inside his house and check it out? ”
"Hizo-sama, we've gone inside to check, but we haven't found any letters or clues left."
The Hyuga clan replied, "There are no traces of a fight in the house, only some traces of the aftermath when the Uchiha clan was wiped out before. ”
"But if it is said that the Great Sect Elder was affected by the aftermath, then it should not be, because his body was not found. It's as if the Great Sect Elder has evaporated in the ninja world! ”
Speaking of this, this Hyuga couldn't help but swallow his spit.
One former upper ninja, two young middle ninjas.
And just disappeared without a sound......
Isn't that weird?
"......" Hinata Hinata was silent for a long time after hearing this, and then asked, "Did the Great Sect Elder meet with anyone before he disappeared?" ”
"I don't know about this yet."
"Go check it out, and if you find out who he's met, let that person come and see me."
"Yes, Hizoga-sama!"
It's actually not difficult to check this matter, after all, the Hyuga clan, which values the orthodoxy of blood, is not as "leafy" as the Uchiha clan. The entire Hyuga clan station is full, and there are only about a hundred people.
Soon, someone found out that the Hyuga Dazong had met with "Hyuga Ningji" before disappearing.
The news also reached Hyuga's side.
So Rizu wanted to see Ning Ci.
Late at night.
Ningji is here.
"It's the first time we've met since Hinata left the Hyuga clan, right?" In an empty house in the mansion, there are only two people, Hinata Hinata and Hinata Ninji.
Next to each of them was a candlestick.
And sit on their knees and look at each other.
It's just over a meter apart.
Although Konoha has long had electric lights, they rarely use electric lights for lighting, and basically use candles, focusing on an ancient tradition.
The candlelight flickered left and right in the house, and what turned out to be a gap in the window blew in through a little wind.
Such flickering of light and darkness can also create a sense of tension.
It's hard not to wonder if it's done on purpose.
"Yes." Ning Ci nodded.
Before Hinata left the Hyuga clan, Ninji's mission was to protect Hinata and partner with Hinata.
After Hinata left, he didn't need to do either task.
Of course, if Hinata Hanabi grows up one day, maybe he will have to transfer the mission goal to Hinata Hanabi.
"Ning Ci...... Have you heard about the disappearance of the Great Sect Elder? I've heard that you've met with the Great Sect Elder several times. Can you tell me, the head of the house, what do you know? ”
Hinata Hinata looked into Hinata Ninji's eyes.
In fact, he just wanted to know some clues from Ning Ci.
But he didn't expect that Ning Ci's answer was not shocking: "Is this matter of the Great Sect Elder?" I know how he is. He died, and so did the two guards beside him. Although it wasn't like I killed it myself, I was involved in it, and it wasn't much different from what I killed. ”
Nara Shikahisa's "warning" was not heeded by a ghost.
Sasuke selectively forgets about it, as does Ninji.
Ning Ji's gaze met Hinata's Hinata.
Obviously, he is only an eight-year-old child, but he looks at an adult, and this adult is still the head of the family, he actually does not show the slightest timidity!
And these words that came out of Ning Ci's mouth......
It made Hinata Hinata stay stunned for a while.
His eyes widened
