Naruto: Crossing the Still Water, Starting from the Blind

In front of the Takigakure Gate, on the land that had just experienced the baptism of war, Ruoshui, accompanied by Chuan, saw Uzuki Xiyan.

Her face was haggard, and there were stab wounds on her shoulders, which showed that she had been hunted down on the way here.

Seeing Ruoshui, Yugao knelt down and bowed: "Konoha's defected ninja Uzuki Yugao, please see Master Shisui, please take me in!"

Ruoshui's heart is hard to reconcile. After what happened to the Forest of Fire not long ago, she never wavered in her loyalty to Konoha even when faced with the pursuit of her compatriots. However, in just over a month, she felt as if she had been separated from the rest of the world!

Xi Yan is definitely not a ninja who betrays her position casually. If she is not a spy sent by Konoha, she must have encountered a major change!

Ruoshui didn't like to beat around the bush the most, so he asked straightforwardly: "What happened, why did you defect to Konoha?"

Xiyan also said bluntly: "Moonlight Hayate, the male ninja you saw walking with me last time in the Forest of Fire, was my lover. He was killed by Danzo!"

Surprise flashed in Ruoshui's heart.

Hayate, I remember that he died at the hands of Sunagakure Jonin Maki in the Konoha Chuunin Exam many years later, so how could he die at the hands of Danzo!

Ruoshui asked: "Danzo, why did you kill Hayate?"

Xi Yan: "In order to open the so-called 'Mangekyō Sharingan' in Uchi Namami's eyes, he brutally killed Hayate in front of me!"

Ruoshui suddenly realized: So...it turns out to be like this!The cause and effect is really true!

Xiyan said sadly: "I thought that the Third Hokage would deal with it impartially, but he protected Danzo! I am disappointed with Konoha and the Hokage of Konoha!"

Ruoshui gently held his palm. He basically understood Xi Yan's intention, but he still asked, "Then why did you come to seek refuge with me?"

"..." Xiyan didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Ruoshui said: "Raise your head and look into my eyes."

Do you want to use illusions to peer into my heart like you did with that name?

Xiyan raised his head and stared into Shisui's eyes without fear.

Good guts.

Ruoshui secretly praised in his heart and did not use any illusions. He just stared into Xiyan's lavender eyes and said solemnly: "I hope you tell the truth."

Xiyan said calmly: "There are two reasons. First, I defected to Konoha and became homeless. In order to survive, I hope to find a place to live. Second, Danzo once took away your right eye, but you still can't." Trying to put Uchiha to death, he and Uchiha have conflicting interests. Sooner or later you will attack Danzo. Our interests are the same, so I implore you to help you..."

Oh?

Ruoshui was really surprised by Xi Yan's answer.

The most straightforward answer is nothing more than - 'I want to use your hand to get rid of Danzo'.

But she was able to explain this purpose in a way that made it acceptable and comfortable for people to listen to, as if she was considering it from the other person's point of view.

Although Ruoshui didn't need Xiyan's help to kill Danzo, no one would not appreciate a woman with substance.

At least it proves that... Uoyuki Xiyan is not just a vase of beauty.

Ruoshui said seriously: "I understand your purpose of coming, but at the moment, the situation of Uchiha is not ideal. Although we have annexed Takigakure Village, Kumogakure Village has issued a letter of war against us. Ten thousand Kumogakure troops are already here. On the way, you should know that we are not Yunyin's opponents right now, right?"

He has obtained the power of Senju Hashirama and will not be afraid of the mere 1 people in Kumogakure. This matter has not yet been announced to the world.

He wanted to see Xi Yan's attitude.

Xi Yan did not disappoint him: "I know, so... I choose to come here at this time to advance and retreat with you, to live and die together!"

Ruoshui's inner monologue: If, after I became famous in the ninja world with my wood escape power and transformed into 'Light and Shadow', you came again, maybe I wouldn't even look at you. You came just in time, just right...

Ruoshui stretched out his hand towards the black gauze covering Xiyan's right eye. The latter instinctively wanted to dodge, but in the end he did not move.

If the water gently lifts a corner of the black gauze.

Ruoshui: "It is said that beautiful women often lack intelligence. It seems that this statement is wrong..."

Xi Yan: "Thank you for the compliment."

Ruoshui covered the black gauze again, took back his palm, looked at Xiyan's right shoulder where the blood scab had not dried up, and said, "You know how to do medical ninjutsu? Treat your wounds!"

Xiyan was surprised: "How...how did you know that I know medical ninjutsu?"

Ruoshui seemed to be smiling but not smiling and did not answer.

After Xi Yan formed the seal, the green light unique to medical ninjutsu appeared on her left palm, covering the wound on her right shoulder. She said inexplicably: "I once had the red symbol of Konoha Anbu tattooed on my right shoulder. At the same time, It is also a symbol of the so-called will of fire, which I destroyed on my own..."

Ruoshui asked: "Do you think the Will of Fire is right or wrong?"

Xi Yan said: "Wrong or not, it depends on who is executing it. Any will initially inspires people and shapes personality, but with the intervention of power and selfish desires, it gradually goes in the opposite direction. Today's Will of Fire has long deviated from its original intention... …”

Ruoshui nodded with pleasure and said solemnly: "Uzuki Xiyan, I, Uchiha Shisui, in the name of Future Light and Shadow, would like to welcome you in advance and become a member of the 'Light Hidden Village'!"

After settling down Xiyan, Chuan expressed his concerns to Ruoshui: "Shisui, would it be too arbitrary to accept that woman? It's not yet sure whether she is telling the truth. What if she is sent by Konoha?" , the spy who monitors us is no joke..."

From his perspective, what Chuan said was completely reasonable.

The reason why he believed that Xi Yan was telling the truth was because he knew Xi Yan's character from a superior perspective from a God's perspective. The only inducement that could lead to Xi Yan's betrayal of Konoha was Hayate's tragic death and the third generation's inaction. This led to the collapse of the belief in her heart called the Will of Fire!

Ruoshui patted Chuan's shoulder with appreciation: "Don't worry, I will observe her slowly and then consider using her. What you are worried about will not happen..."

Kawakawa: "As long as you are sure, by the way, she said before that Konoha will take action against Uchiha, don't you ask clearly?"

Ruoshui: "Let her come to me and tell me. It can also be used as an inspection of her..."

Chuan: "As expected of you, you always consider things so comprehensively."

……

After saying goodbye to Sichuan, Ruoshui's mood was inexplicably high. He did not go back to his residence to rest, but prepared to continue learning the Wood Release Ninjutsu.

Returning to the back mountain of Takigakure, a luxurious house suddenly came into view.

We had just gone to have supper, and Hunt and the Bai Jue were squatting in front of the house.

Bai Jue said: "After the guy finished building the house, he went in and slept."

Ruoshui is pleasant to the eyes: "It's such a beautiful house, people can't help but add some fire..."

——Fire Escape · Dragon Fire Art!

boom!

After Ruoshui formed a seal, he spit out a large fire dragon with a diameter of more than ten meters, and the house suddenly exploded into a sea of ​​fire!

From the wall of the wooden ingot, Yamato crawled out, still in shock: "You, you, what are you doing so suddenly!!!"

Ruoshui smiled kindly: "Teacher Yamato, let's continue our teaching. This trick of the wooden spindle wall is good, teach it to me."

The Mudun teaching was in full swing, and three days passed quietly.

The Kumogakure army is approaching the border of Taki Country...
