Naruto the Cat and the Fox

A few days later, Sakura Luofeng came back to Shuanghua Inn with Eagle Wind Pill. When she first left Amegakure Village, she met several Anbu from Konoha. Although she didn't know where she had offended the Konoha people, they probably wouldn't let her go by the murderous look on their faces.

Fortunately, it is close to the sea, so it is very convenient to dispose of the body, and it turns out that it is also the case~~

At the inn, Wu, who was munching corn, was stunned when she saw Ying Luofeng, who had just returned. I found that except for a lot of bandages on her body and a slight limp when walking, she looked the same as before departure.

"Sister Feng~~You are finally back~~~" Wu immediately jumped over. Fortunately, she could control herself and not hug her directly to avoid aggravating Ying Luofeng's injuries.

After anxiously circling her a few times, Wu asked worriedly, "Sister Feng, you have suffered a lot of injuries. Let me check them for you later."

"It's okay, he's almost healed." Ying Luofeng walked slowly and said what she had learned, "And the matter has been resolved. You can go back and report to the young master and the others."

"Sure enough, Sister Feng is so powerful." Wu smiled happily and narrowed her eyes. Then she realized something was wrong. She looked at the scabbard peeking out of Yingluo Feng's black hair and was stunned, "But Sister Feng, why are you The dagger is gone and now only the scabbard remains.”

"It probably fell into the sea during the explosion, and I can't find it." Ying Luofeng looked a little sad, and then she just took out a herb with red crescent-shaped leaves and handed it to her, "The Thousand Moons you want. Grass."

"Okay." Wu nodded and said sadly, "Sister Feng, Itachi has decided."

"I know, go get ready early." Ying Luofeng was not surprised. When she entered the inn, she saw Zhongwu cleaning the dining table while Xiang Lu and Shui Yue lay lifeless on the table. Seeing that the two people who had always been the most energetic were acting in such a desperate manner, she was a little surprised and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"Sasuke," Xiang Ling sobbed and said aggrievedly, "in the past few weeks, he has completely ignored us. After asking us to find what we need, he just ignored us. Now we are It’s like air.”

"The most important thing is that we are no longer the Snake Team." Shuiyue sighed and looked at Yingluofeng faintly, "Do you know what he said to us a few days ago?"

"What?" Ying Luofeng was a little curious.

Shuiyue stood up suddenly like a corpse, stepped on the wooden bench with one foot, put one hand in one hand and pointed forward with the other, and spoke with a cold expression and arrogance, "From today on, we are now free from the snake. Next, our team will Change your name to Eagle and start taking action."

"", Ying Luofeng looked at him for a while, then the corner of her mouth twitched slightly, "What is the reason?"

Xiang Ling sighed faintly and spoke angrily, "At that time, Uchiha Itachi said that a free eagle is like his younger brother. That kind of reptilian animal always reminds people of Orochimaru, and then Sasuke Then he turned around and told the team to change their name."

Sakura Luofeng silently shed a few black lines, smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, but Eagle is still pretty good. Speaking of Sasuke and Itachi."

"Itachi is reading a book in the room at the base, and Sasuke went to a nearby town to buy three-color meatballs. Really, he obviously doesn't like sweets." Xianglan replied lazily, and suddenly stood up suddenly with a flash of inspiration. He got up and rushed outside, "Then we can have a chance encounter with Sasuke now."

"This guy is really thinking about this." Shuiyue was a little embarrassed, but in the next second he picked up his decapitation knife and rushed out, "There is no yogurt in the refrigerator. I'll buy it over there."

Jugo was still sweeping the floor quietly. There was a barrier near Shuanghua that neutralized chakra, which made him feel very calm and without the urge to kill.

Ying Luofeng just smiled and then walked to her room on the second floor. She planned to take a look inside the base.

Wu grabbed the herbs in her hand tightly, ran to Ying Luofeng, and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, Sister Feng, that fox boy came here a few weeks ago~ But I used wrong information to get him here a long time ago. All the Konoha ninjas from that team were lured elsewhere."

"Really?" Ying Luofeng said nonchalantly, not taking her words to heart. After all, it was enough not to let them know that Itachi was here.

"Oh," Wu was stunned for a moment, looking at her indifferent expression with some confusion. It was strange, hadn't that fox boy been chasing Sister Feng all the time? And Sister Feng seemed to care about him. Why don't you care about his news at all now?

Ying Luofeng had already disappeared at the corner of the stairs, and Wu, who had failed to think about it, tilted her head and ignored the little doubt she had just now.

Anyway, it’s best if Sister Feng doesn’t draw her attention to that damn fox~~

Itachi's health had deteriorated to the point where it was difficult to walk, and he would cough up blood from time to time, but he still pretended as if nothing had happened.In the room at the base, he was flipping through a book, but with blurred vision he could not see many words.

The door of the room was not closed, and from the outside, one could see the figure of the young man with his long hair tied casually, quiet and gentle, without the vindictiveness.

"" Sakura Luofeng stood at the door holding a fruit plate. After quietly looking at Itachi sitting there for a while, her right hand slowly touched the fruit knife on the fruit plate. The tunnel was very dark, but the coldness in her deep black eyes was still clear and scary, and the silver-white fruit knife also flashed a cold light.

"", the intense murderous intention he felt intuitively made Itachi instinctively tighten his body. When he turned around suddenly, he only saw Ying Luofeng coming in with a plate of fruit, and no one else.

It always felt like he was staring at her as if he were looking at an enemy. Ying Luofeng stopped and looked back. When she didn't see anyone else, she turned around and asked, "Itachi, what's wrong with the murderous look all of a sudden?" Soaring."

Itachi looked at her normal eyes, then just relaxed his vigilance and said, "It's nothing. Did it go smoothly, Miss Feng?"

"It's not bad. Mai has already started preparing the potion, and it will probably be completed tomorrow." Ying Luofeng put down the fruit plate, and then continued to speak calmly, "But even so, Sasuke will not follow your instructions. It’s his plan. Besides, it’s impossible for him to kill you now.”

"Not necessarily." Itachi answered vaguely, and then looked at the fruits with water droplets on the fruit plate and the cold fruit knife. After a while, he just whispered, "Miss Feng, I really need your help tomorrow."

After Ying Luofeng was silent for a while, she just nodded, "Okay."

Itachi whispered his plan in a low voice, while Ying Luofeng just listened quietly, without any emotion on his face. Only when Itachi didn't notice, his eyes occasionally had a haze.

The candlelight in the oil lamp jumped a little. After Ying Luofeng listened in silence, she just closed her eyes silently, and then whispered two words: "Okay."

Immediately, she turned around and left the room, closing the door gently.

After feeling her breath disappear completely, Itachi closed the book he hadn't read at all, with a slight frown on his face and a serious look on his face. I didn't feel wrong about the faint but real murderous intention just now, but why did that girl show murderous intention towards me?

Did something really happen in the Hidden Rain Village? Itachi pursed his lips tightly, and the possibilities quickly went through his mind.

Ying Luofeng, who had walked far away, just slowly slowed down, lowered her head and looked at her hands, with confusion on her face. What did I want to do just now?

Sasuke happened to come over carrying a small box and was a little surprised to see her, "Feng, are you back? Is everything going well?"

"Well, it's over." Ying Luofeng put down her hands and replied with a smile, but when she saw his face, she suddenly felt the urge to draw the knife. After suppressing the inexplicable feeling, she moved her eyes to the small box he was holding and asked with a smile, "That's a gift for Itachi."

"Well, Grandma Fujii has to go somewhere else today and doesn't have time to make dango. And Mai said that although you can't eat too many sweets, you can still eat them every few days. So I went to the town to buy them." Sasuke explained calmly. , then glanced at the small box in his hand, slightly dissatisfied, "I really don't know why these sweets are so delicious, they obviously don't even want to drink medicine."

"For sweethearts, such a bitter decoction is indeed difficult to swallow." Ying Luofeng smiled, then waved her hands and prepared to leave.

Sasuke looked at her back and suddenly asked, "Did Itachi just say something to you?"

"You should know that, right? After all, all the decisions are yours." Ying Luofeng said calmly and left without looking back. But after walking a few steps, she suddenly covered her head with her hands and staggered. .

"Feng, are you okay?" Sasuke quickly reached out to support her, but found that she was still covering her head in discomfort.

What's going on? For a moment, he felt the power of the pupil technique from Feng's body. Sasuke frowned slightly, and then whispered, "Feng, look at me."

The cool and pleasant voice made people subconsciously do as he said. Ying Luofeng subconsciously raised her head to look at him, and the next moment, all her attention was attracted by those magical red eyes.

Beautiful blood-red lines like a six-pointed star, eerie and deep as an abyss

Dark lines quickly crawled out from her back, spreading to her entire right hand before blooming into several bloody cherry blossom patterns. The next moment, Ying Luofeng fainted and completely lost consciousness.

At the same time, Sasuke's eyes were forced to return to dark color, and a thin stream of blood flowed from his left eye and snaked down his fair cheek. Ignoring the blood on his face, he reached out to hold the unconscious person and let her lean against him. Sasuke's originally cold expression was covered with gloom.

Sasuke didn't tell Itachi what happened just now. After all, if he knew that Sakura Luofeng might have been hit by the pupil technique, he might find a way to unlock the pupil technique regardless of his physical condition. After all, that girl was a benefactor who helped them a lot.

However, even if Sasuke didn't say anything, judging from the fact that he left after sitting for a while, Itachi had a rough guess.In addition, when he thought about the source of the killing intent that suddenly appeared but then disappeared strangely, he only felt more and more uneasy.

In a certain room in the base, Ying Luofeng, who had fallen asleep, was lying on the stone bed, with a thin blanket covering her body.The orange oil lamp sat quietly on the wooden table, illuminating the small and medium-sized room with its warm luster.

Sasuke, who was leaning against the wall, held his hands and looked at the unconscious person. He looked at her quietly for a while and then suddenly walked over and picked up her right hand.After carefully looking at the dark lines on the fair skin and the few bloody cherry blossoms, he gently turned her palm over and looked silently at the scar that suddenly appeared and the red cherry blossoms above it.

He knew the origin of that scar. It was left when she signed a blood contract with him nearly four years ago, but he didn't usually see this scar on her palm.

The power of the coat of arms prevents me from using illusions. In other words, those people cast the eye spell when the coat of arms and abilities were ineffective. And even if the power was restored later, the eye spell could no longer be unlocked. Put her hand down. After getting under the quilt and covering herself up, Sasuke looked at the unconscious person with some worry, and the trouble now was that her body would automatically reject the pupil technique that was originally in the chakra category. When the two collide, it may have serious consequences for her body.

At this time, there were several light knocks on the door, and then Itachi's voice came in, "Sasuke, are you there?"

"Brother, why don't you go and rest?" Sasuke was a little surprised, but he still opened the door and let him in.

Seeing Ying Luofeng lying there, Itachi was not surprised and just said calmly, "Miss Feng, is she okay?"

p;"Yeah."

"Eye Technique"

"Well, it seemed that I was rejecting my own abilities, so I fainted."

Itachi came over and put his index finger on Sakura Luofeng's forehead, but frowned slightly the next second, "There is no way to use chakra."

"The effect of the coat of arms is still there, and once you look into her eyes and use the pupil technique, it will be bounced back." Sasuke looked at the person with his eyes tightly closed, and said softly, "However, I took advantage of that moment just now to The pupil technique suppresses it for a while, and there shouldn't be any problems in a short time."

"Indeed." Itachi took his hand back and raised the corners of his lips slightly, "Sasuke has really become very powerful now."

"Of course," Sasuke snorted and looked away awkwardly.

"Then Sasuke will take care of Miss Feng here, and then go to practice tomorrow." Itachi smiled slightly, and then quickly left here without waiting for his answer.

"Brother", before Sasuke could say anything, the door was already closed. Slowly clenching his fists, he pursed his lips and lowered his head, "What should I do?"

Itachi, who returned to his room in a flash, could no longer hold on any longer. He grabbed his tight-fitting clothes and coughed violently in pain, vomiting out large mouthfuls of blood.

His body was exhausted and he was sitting on his knees on the ground, but his body was constantly shaking due to violent coughing. After coughing up a large pool of blood, he calmed down a little. He panted slightly and looked at his bloody hands, "There is no time anymore."

"Itachi", Mai rushed into the room when he sensed something was wrong, and his heart sank when he saw the person sitting there kneeling and a large pool of blood in front of him. It seems that it can no longer be delayed and the operation must be performed as soon as possible.

Itachi wiped the blood from his mouth and asked calmly as if nothing happened, "Miss Mai, how long do I have."

Wu clenched her fist and then whispered, "About two weeks."

"Time is running out. Let's start tomorrow. Sorry to bother you."

"it is good"

When Ying Luofeng woke up, she was a little confused. Especially when I saw that my crest had been completely expanded on my right hand, I was even more confused.

what happened

Regarding her doubts, the cool young man leaning against the wall just said lightly that she accidentally saw her Mangekyō Sharingan and turned on the self-defense mode to activate the power of the crest, and then fainted.

He didn't plan to tell her about the pupil spell yet, after all, it would only make her feel helpless.What's more, it's still unclear what the purpose of that pupil technique is, and I can't see anything wrong with her now.

"", Sakura Luofeng blinked, and the memory before coma was indeed Sasuke's Mangekyō Sharingan. After tilting her head, she looked at the boy standing there in confusion, "Sasuke, don't point the kaleidoscope at me next time. I was seriously injured and just came back."

"Sorry, I didn't notice you were back." Sasuke apologized lightly.

Ying Luofeng lifted the quilt, sat up and asked, "Speaking of which, where is Itachi? I originally planned to see him."

Sasuke was stunned for a moment, then frowned slightly.After all, Ying Luofeng just finished watching Itachi and came out, but he didn't point it out, just said lightly, "Brother has gone to bed. His health has not been very good recently."

"That's right, that's right." Ying Luofeng nodded, and then saw Sasuke standing in front of her, and asked a little confused, "What's wrong?"

"I'm a little worried that you may have been under an illusion because of what happened just now. After all, I'm not very proficient in using kaleidoscopes. Can you put your ability away first and let me check it?"

"But if the coat of arms is still intact, nothing will happen." Yingluo Feng puffed her face, looked up at his dark eyes, and then bit her left index finger obediently, and then covered the black lines with blood. There are some complicated incantations written on Man's right wrist.

After writing around her wrist, she tapped her forehead with her index finger, leaving a scarlet fingerprint. The next second, the black lines on his right hand quickly faded and disappeared into the clothes on his shoulders. At the same time, the spot on his forehead also solidified.

"The effect of the forced sealing ability is only for two minutes, but I have never used this technique before, so I don't know if it will work." After Ying Luofeng finished speaking, she raised her head and stared into his eyes. The dark eyes reflected Sasuke's delicate face, and then he watched the ink-like black eyes turn as bright red as blood in the next moment.

Without the obstruction of his abilities and the ability of the Mangekyou Sharingan, he easily entered her thinking space and easily read her memories.

"" Sakura Luofeng stared at Sasuke and her eyes suddenly widened. The next second she painfully covered her head that suddenly stung and fell on the bed, "It hurts."

Sasuke, who was bounced back again, covered his sore eyes, his eyes restored to black and stinging slightly. But he had no time to care about these things now. He looked anxiously at the painful Ying Luofeng, "Feng, are you okay?"

"Well", after biting her lower lip to endure the sting, she fell asleep again. There was nothing unusual except that her face turned a little pale. And those black lines automatically covered her right hand again.

"Did you forcibly activate the power of the crest because you felt the invasion? It seems that you need to find a better way." Sasuke frowned slightly and reached out to wipe the sweat on her face, and then covered her with the quilt. And most importantly, part of her memory is gone. What did those guys want to do to her?

night.

There seemed to be only a bright full moon in the night sky without any stars. The bright color was extremely pale, which only made it colder.

In front of the wooden house at one of the entrances to the base from the forest, Itachi was standing in the open space, looking up at the full moon.His face was expressionless, but his dark eyes were empty, like a pool of stagnant water.

That night, there was also such a moon and such weather

But that bright moon is blood-red in my memory, so cold that no one can feel any warmth.

As if being stabbed by the bright light, Itachi closed his eyes. But the figure that seemed to blend into the moonlight was so lonely that it seemed as if it would disappear in the next second.

The heaven-like days before made him temporarily forget the sins of the past, but the past is the past. No matter how things change now, his hands are still stained with the blood of his people.

How can I protect myself as the only person with my own hands full of sin? Who has given me countless pain and despair, so what qualifications do I have to be by his side?

After the genocide, he only lived to die by his hands, because only when he died and buried the dark truth, would the people he cherished most live in the light.

Why did I hesitate again and let things develop to the current state? Just because I didn't want my younger brother who was still as innocent as a piece of paper to be taken advantage of by others, I changed my plan. But I didn't expect that under the circumstances, the development of The result will be unexpectedly satisfying

At the very least, he no longer expects Sasuke to call him brother in his lifetime.

But now, that extravagant hope is developing in a direction that makes people want to stop. Although there has been a gap of seven or eight years between coldness and hatred, Sasuke seems to have decided to let go of that hatred and look forward to the future.

Opening his eyes slightly and looking at his hands, Itachi pursed his pale and colorless lips. I selfishly longed to be with my younger brother, but I didn't dare to do anything. It was too dirty for me to kill the clan members.

How could I, who was burdened with countless lives and sins, touch that angelic white existence?

His most important brother deserves the best future and purer companionship. In my own heart and ideals, my younger brother should have the best of everything.

The originally chaotic heart became calm because of his natural thoughts. Itachi looked up at the bright full moon in the sky, and the dark eyes that were originally confused and empty were filled with determination.

As long as I guard him silently in the darkness, I am content, and these days of dreamlike happiness are already the greatest favor to him.

My current decision may indeed be cruel, but no matter what happens to me tomorrow, I have to undo the curse-like seal on Sasuke's body.

In the wooden house not far away, Sasuke was sitting on the wooden floor against the wall, his head lowered as if he was melting into the darkness.The moonlight shining in from the door was very bright, but it could not reach the boy sitting near the door.

Sasuke looked at the ground with unfocused eyes, and his mind went blank. Although I knew Itachi wanted to exhaust him through fighting to reveal the true face of the curse seal, but at what cost?

Although Itachi didn't tell him anything about the genocide, various clues showed that the truth was true. His brother who was ordered to exterminate the clan had given him countless pains, but he regarded him as the most important existence. Perhaps for others, how to treat him with an expression would be a complicated problem.

But for myself, although I do feel a little concerned, I am more distressed and worried about my brother. Maybe I did feel sorry for the dead tribesmen, but I still chose to forgive.

Maybe this is indeed not in line with my original character, but how can I be cruel to my brother who regards me as everything?

For Itachi, his life is more important than the village and everything else. But for myself, it might not be the case

To him, Itachi's life, regardless of the village or anything else, was always important.

He can only put one thing in the most important position, and even if he overturns the world, he will not let anyone hurt him. And that position is not Konoha, but Uchiha Itachi

After understanding everything, I became more clear. For me, no matter what Konoha becomes, I don't care if it is defeated or not, I don't care at all.

If the most important person is gone, let alone Konoha, even if the world is destroyed, it has nothing to do with him. After all, no matter what, he no longer exists in this world, and what meaning does a world without his village have for me?

Looking out at the person standing under the moonlight, Sasuke felt that he seemed to be standing in an unreachable distance, so close to the end of the world.

He couldn't see the expression of the person who had his back turned to him, but he could feel the despair and suffocation that was so heavy that he couldn't breathe.

Looking up at the pale full moon in the sky, he easily knew what the person standing under the moonlight was thinking, but just because he knew it, he felt so heavy that he couldn't breathe.

Looking down at the person who seemed to disappear under the moonlight in the next second, Sasuke pursed his lips tightly, but his dark eyes slowly became moist:

Brother, I forgive you, but when can you forgive yourself?
