(Naruto) Me and my two tubas

The chaotic season of assignments is over, and as a new year begins, I turn eighteen.

Although there is no concept of "adult" in ninjas, I feel that eighteen years old is different. I even think that twenty years old is the real adult. However, in recent years, the amendment... huh? What kind of strange past life memory fragment is this*?

My apricots have grown taller again, reaching 1.68 meters, just shy of 1.7 meters, which is almost the average of the girls in the clan.

As for my Maki, it was stuck at 157 and couldn't make any progress. I calculated my age and found out to my surprise that Maki didn't seem to have any room to grow taller...

The Uchiha clan is so scary, they even have a height limit!

But having said that, even at the age of eighteen, I am still single and free. Both Maki and Anzu can easily refuse recommendations and blind dates within the clan. All of these are qualifications brought by strong strength, and the right to speak is only It can be accumulated through strength and military exploits.

Now even my brothers can't come to urge me to get married - but they themselves are not much better. The conditions are obviously very good, but they are single inexplicably.

This year's New Year is probably the busiest New Year I have ever experienced. The main reason is that after the mission season ended, both Senju and Uchiha brothers released news about the alliance within the clan.

This is really a stone that stirred up a thousand waves. Before the exact news came out, the tribesmen fell into fierce discussions and debates. When the news was verified, it caused a violent backlash, whether it was opposition, questioning or I agree with neutrality. Everyone has their own position and will not compromise easily. No matter which race they are, no one will have an easy time this winter.

In Senju, Brother Hashirama really kept his promise. He visited and persuaded every family, and faced everyone's doubts and objections. What he had to bear was everyone's expectations.

It was inconvenient for Tobirama to get involved in this kind of thing, but he believed in him and simply started preparations for the alliance.

Not only my brothers, but also many people from my tribe came to see me. From subordinates who fought side by side to relatives who had never been on the battlefield, Xing has always shown a gentle and friendly image, and the opponents thought it would be easy to convince me.

But of course I had to find a way to provide assists to my big brother, so my attitude became uncharacteristically tough, which once again confirmed the possibility of the league.

This winter, I was almost too busy to do anything else. I could only be busy dealing with my tribe.

Children are an easy reason to convince people. Once I emphatically mention "I don't want children to go to the battlefield", the women of the tribe who have children or are newly married will compromise, and most of the ninjas who have been on the battlefield will fall silent. Only one A small number of tribesmen still hold dissent.

This was exactly the case when I met Senju Juro. Not long after the New Year, we met again in front of the grave. He still brought flowers to worship his family, but his always sunny and resolute face was covered with Confused.

"Sister Xing." He asked me softly, "If...if we join forces with Uchiha, will I never be able to take revenge?"

The answer is yes. After the alliance between the two races, all previous grievances will be wiped out. I don’t know whose hands Juro’s parents and other relatives died, but even if the alliance is not established, he will never be able to take revenge.

If my Maki really encounters Juro on the battlefield, I will kill him outright.

I picked up a few flowers and wove them together. Although I didn't reply to him, silence was the best answer.

"I understand..." Senju Juro said softly, "I can understand why the clan leader did this. The children in the clan are so young, and the casualty rate is so high every year. Everyone is tired of wars long ago, but - Sister Xing, what should I do with my brother?"

I raised my head and looked at him. Now Juro is much taller than me, but what I see at this moment is not a mature man, but the child who was crying on his brother's grave.

He said to me: "Sister Xing, do you know how many times and how many years I have hated the name 'Uchiha Maki'? If I can't take revenge from now on, then what am I living for... ?”

Uchiha clan.

Like the Senju clan, almost the same things are constantly happening in the Uchiha clan.

Over the years, I have watched the highly similar actions of the two tribes countless times, from annual funerals to wars, to today's disputes over the alliance.

...It's almost like my two fathers. They died together with similar expressions.

However, compared with the relatively harmonious atmosphere within the Senju clan, the atmosphere in Uchiha is more sinister.

Brother Madara did not persuade each family like Brother Hashirama. He directly held a large meeting within the clan and announced the resolution with his usual domineering and decisive momentum and reasons.

Brother Ban's prestige within the clan is enough to support him in making this decision, not to mention that he has me and Quan Nai by his side. The weight of three pairs of kaleidoscopes is enough to facilitate all decisions. No matter what Quan Nai brother usually thinks, at this time, He must be standing by Brother Ban's side.

But even if the Uchiha clan is more obedient, there are problems with this too direct decision-making. People's hearts are unpredictable, especially the Uchiha who are more emotionally extreme.

I thought about it and decided to imitate Brother Hashirama and go door-to-door sales - there is no other choice in this matter. In our family, only Maki has a gentle and modest image in the clan. If Brother Madara or Brother Izuna came to visit, I would It is a deterrent, which will more easily lead to bad consequences.

Similar to the Senju, orphans without parents and elders are not uncommon in Uchiha. Even families that are almost extinct are everywhere. I also met many children who were not as high as my waist. They spoke to me with great assurance. What about "Maki/Senju, I'm not afraid of death", "I want revenge", "Uchiha/Senju cannot lose his reputation because of this"...

Whenever I encounter this kind of situation, I am the most exhausted. It takes the most effort to persuade these children, which is no less than communicating with those die-hards. Moreover, I should not treat the children in an overly rough and violent way. I feel that my personality is damaged. It has been sublimated in this process.

Even Uchiha Yuuto came to me and swore that if I didn't have to stick to a soft image, I think I might throw him out.

I've never seen someone come to smash the boss's stall like this!

Speaking of which, Yuuto also had a younger brother at home, so I talked to him about it for a long time. Finally, I was moved to tears of guilt and successfully sent him out.

However, just after Yuuto left, an even smaller beetle lay next to my door. I wanted to roar why you didn't come together and persuade me how much trouble you could save, but I still controlled my emotions. Kneeling down and looking at him tenderly: "Are you... Yuuto's younger brother?"

The little boy nodded seriously: "Maki-sama, Yuuto is my brother, and I am Uchiha Kagami."

Mirror... It seems that this is the name. Yuuto called his younger brother's name several times when he was half-dead.

I nodded to show my understanding: "So, why did Xiao Jing come to me? Is it also about the alliance?"

"No, yes, yes! I think the alliance is a good thing." The little boy looked very excited and a little incoherent. "I, I want to thank Master Maki for saving my brother's life. I...I also I want to help Maki-sama!”

Such children are rare. Yuuto's parents also died at the hands of Senju, right? His brother insisted on reconciliation...

I touched his head: "Thank you then. It would be great if Xiao Jing could help me convince other friends."

The little boy showed a big smile. He handed me a bouquet of flowers from behind. The flowers were bright and beautiful, and the bouquet was trimmed in an orderly manner. However, it is not easy to gather such a small bunch in winter, especially for a child. explain.

After delivering the bouquet, the little boy ran away shyly. I thought about it and decided not to stop him and tell him that his brother was hiding not far away and eavesdropping.

But little angels like Uchiha Kagami are still rare. This year I almost vomited, it was like hell-level overtime.

My two accounts repeat similar things every day, which is so irritating that it almost makes me numb. I don’t know how many times I want to break the rules and do things like make Maki and Xing run to the door of the house to express their feelings. Things... alas, it was the last bit of reason that held me back.

I must have been a doctor in my previous life, and it wasn't just a doctor who treated the physical body, it must have been psychological. The patience I showed even shocked myself.

The efforts of my brothers and I were not without reward. As the coming summer approached, our census-style persuasion finally led to a reluctant unified conclusion.

Our people either approved or acquiesced in the alliance.

*

In the summer when I was eighteen years old, Brother Hashirama and Brother Madara had their last fight before building the village in Nanga River. It was not because of missions or hatred, but a pure exchange of ideas.

They don't do it to kill each other, but to enjoy the fun of fighting and to understand each other's beliefs in the hearty competition.

My Maki sat on the top of the cliff of Nanga River and watched this fight between gods from a distance. Although I now have this level of power, I am still not as good as my brothers.

My Kyouya ran to the cliff. Today, both Kyo and Maki are wearing the most formal clan uniforms, because just this afternoon, the alliance between Senju and Uchiha will be officially established, and the clan leaders of the two parties will bring their clan members with them. They met at the site of the village and signed a series of agreements.

Yes, in the village, Brother Hashirama’s idea was bolder than mine. He directly envisioned a future where the two races would live together, and Brother Madara actually agreed. This caused my brother Fei’s and Brother Quanna’s blood pressure to soar, but We couldn't go back on what we had promised, so we had no choice but to choose a site for the future settlement - a forest that had not yet been cleared of vegetation. In short, a small courtyard for ceremonies was built first, which would be the core area of ​​the future village.

It sounds very crude, but as long as an alliance can be established, it doesn't matter how crude the name is.

My Anzu sat down on the ground next to Maki. The strong wind brought by the collision between Susana and Mudun set off layers of forest waves in the dense woods. The wind and waves actually spread all the way up the cliff. The momentum and power were amazing. .

In this mountain breeze, I once again saw my appearance in the field of vision.

Eighteen-year-old Maki has fully grown up. The facial features that were as delicate as a doll when she was young have now become extremely beautiful. She has long black hair, white skin, and only her lips are light pink.

Nowadays, Anzu is slightly taller than Maki. Her oval face and deep red eyes give people a gentle and infinite feeling. This appearance is not aggressive at all, and she does not look like a kunoichi who has been on the battlefield for more than ten years.

Unknowingly, Maki and Xing touched each other's faces, and everything they touched in their hands had the same temperature.

It's really magical. They are obviously similar in their behavior, gentleness and kindness, and they have the same soul in their bodies, but the temperaments of Maki and Xing are completely different. If Xing is the winter sun, spring and water, then Maki is the thin snow and summer moon. .

The giant not far away has disappeared at some point. I guess the eldest brothers have already formed the seal of reconciliation, and the next step is the formal ceremony of the alliance between the two races.

Once I think that from now on I will no longer have to see my tribe and brothers killing each other, I feel as if a huge burden has been lifted off me since I was born. I don't have to think about anything. There is only one thing in this world. Endless relaxation and tranquility remain.

Maki and Xing ran down the cliff together. After landing, I subconsciously checked the hairstyles of Xing and Maki. Today, both of my hair styles were tied up in more complicated buns. They were made by tribesmen. Xing’s bun was relatively firm. But Maki's was a little scattered.

But even if it’s messy, it still looks good. Ah, it’s Maki as expected.

I asked Xing to help Maki tidy up her bun. I really didn’t know what to do with the hair accessories that had fallen off, so I simply asked Xing to use tree vines to replace them.

Recently, Anzu's chakra control has become more and more sophisticated. I successfully braided pink and white apricot flowers on Maki's bun. The full petals are the same color as Maki's lips. This is much more beautiful than hair accessories.

However, there was no place to put the free hair accessory, so I simply tied it in Xing’s bun.

*

When I arrived at the location, the ceremony had not yet begun, but the tribesmen from both sides had already arrived, and everyone gathered solemnly around the courtyard. Because they had not yet been able to break away from the usual state of alert, the atmosphere was as serious as if it could change at any time. Going to war.

Under such circumstances, the arrival of Xing and Maki was very noticeable. For a moment, it seemed that everyone was looking at me. They didn't know what to do, so they could only get information from me.

Alas, this won't work... If I had known better, I would have found a few shills on both sides. Even the plastic greetings to each other would be more natural than this indifferent state.

My behavior represents my brothers to a certain extent, and may even affect future alliances. Since I didn’t prepare well in advance, I had no choice but to perform on the spot by myself, so I asked Maki to hold Xing’s hand, and Xing Taking it as a matter of course, the two of them walked into the small courtyard together.

The family crests of the two clans had already been arranged in this newly established courtyard. The symbols representing Uchiha and Senju were painted on huge flags and hung together in the center of the courtyard.

The clansmen waiting in the courtyard are also relatively core members of the two clans, and they are basically the main force on the battlefield. In other words... the atmosphere in this courtyard is even more sinister than outside.

As I expected, everyone's eyes almost drifted to the intertwined hands of Maki and Anzu. I saw Renzi cover her face, Sister Momohua turned her head away, and Brother Huohe gave me a competition. He gave a careful and safe gesture... and various mysterious expressions from the clan elders.

Yes, although everyone knows that the two tribes are about to form an alliance, they are obviously not ready to fall in love with each other yet. Alas, I don’t blame everyone, it was me who entered the state too early.

But for the sake of the hearts of all the old men and women, I still let Xing and Maki temporarily separate and go to the respective territories of the two major families.

I didn't wait long, and the clan leaders who had signed the covenant entered the courtyard together. I could see that Brother Madara and Brother Hashirama were in a good mood, while the second brother who was one step behind them had a businesslike and indifferent expression, until They saw Maki and Anzu.

Brother Tobirama saw the apricot blossoms on Maki's head, and it took him a long time to move his eyes and glare at Anzu; while Brother Izuna was more direct, he also saw the hair ornaments on Maki's head... At that moment, he His expression became extremely terrifying.

what happened? Is there a time when Brother Quan Nai fails to manage his expression properly?

I thought about it, and suddenly realized - this hairpin was not bought for me by Quan Nai brother... Hiss, it seems so, it seems that he gave a big box during the Chinese New Year, and I piled it in the jewelry box. Can't tell the difference.

I sensed the crisis in a conditional launch, but soon I realized - we are in an alliance!

Not to mention the judgment of the same camp, the busy work of the initial construction alone is enough to fill my brothers' work schedule. Will I still get beaten? Not anymore!

Clam!
