[Comprehensive] Hokage: Watching the Moon Climb Up

Chapter 113



Chapter 113

Dimly, I seem to see the way home.

The cold moonlight shone on the road, casting long shadows on the electric poles on the side of the road. A few black birds stood on the electric wires, but their eyes were red like blood.

There is no extra sound in the quiet night, only the sound of flapping wings from time to time adds a little vitality to the night.

Walking on the road alone, I felt inexplicably happy, so I hummed a song while bouncing forward.The shadow is a little girl with a bun and a bunch of candied haws in her hand.

Huh?This is where?

I looked around, but there was no familiar scene.

The space in front of me suddenly rippled, and a glowing black hole-like thing appeared in front of me. The inside of the black hole was as dark blue as the night sky, but it was full of stars. It looked very special when it appeared with the bright moonlight outside... science.

A tall figure appeared in the black hole, and with one step, he came to me.

The man was tall and straight, wearing a long windbreaker and unilateral glasses. The silver chain hanging from the glasses shone like the starry sky behind him.He had unruly long hair on his head, loosely braided and draped over his left shoulder, a top hat was unbuttoned on his hair, the brim of the hat just blocked the moonlight, and his face could not be seen clearly.

But the corners of his mouth are curved.

I tilted my head and looked at the scene in front of me. I was stunned for a while, and finally put the candied haws in my hand to my mouth, "Crackling--"

Then, the quiet night sky was only left with the sound of "cracking and crunching".

"..."

"What?" I asked suspiciously, my cheeks were bulging from the candied haws, and my words were a little unclear, but my voice was so immature that it seemed like I hadn't heard such a voice for a long time.

"I'm here to pick you up..." the man said, his voice was as mellow as wine.Then he squatted down and looked at me at the same level, his eyes were bent like crescent moons in the moonlight.

"Eh?" He tilted his head in confusion, blinked, "Uncle, I don't know you."

"It's okay, we'll get to know each other later." The man stretched out his hand to touch my head and sighed.Then he picked me up, turned around and wanted to leave.

"Where do you want to take her?" A voice suddenly sounded from behind. It was a very clear female voice, which gave people the feeling of a mountain spring. Although it was clear and crisp, there was a sense of coolness in it.

Hearing her voice, the man's movements froze, but he still turned his back to her and did not speak.I sat on the man's arm, hugged his neck and looked back from the shoulder. It was just a faint figure, but his figure was slender. Just standing there gave people a noble feeling.

"Leave her alone in this kind of place for so many years without paying attention, where do you want to take her now?" The female voice was flat and cool.

"You know how important she is." The man paused, then continued, "Anyway, I won't harm her."

"Oh, you won't harm her, but have you ever asked for her opinion? Do you think she would want to accept the fate you arranged for her?!" the female voice mocked.

"Even if she doesn't now, she will definitely accept it in the future. I believe her." The corner of the man's mouth deepened, he reached out to stroke my back, and lifted me up.

I moved around cooperatively, found a more comfortable way to sit down, and rested my chin, what's the plot?

"You will regret this……"

"No, I never regret it."

"She will hate you, every time you run around, every time you get hurt, every time you meet, every time you separate...she will hate you..."

"No, I know she won't. There are very few things that are most important in her heart. As long as they are still there, she will not despair."

"...That's you, right?"

"Of course it's me, but so is she." The man smiled cunningly like a fox, and the silver chain drew an arc, flashing a soft light.

"You believe in your blood inheritance so much? Don't forget, she also has my blood."

"Then there's no need to worry." The man looked back at the woman, still smiling, "Let's make a bet?"

"what?"

"See if she will follow the path I gave."

"……it is good."

Then, the woman watched the man take me away. A bitter smile appeared on the corner of the woman's mouth where the man could not see.

"Where are we going?" I propped his chest and distanced myself from him. Although it was the first time we met, I didn't feel alienated, as if I should have known him before and sat in his arms Eat my candied haws.

He stretched out his hand to open the space, then wiped off the sugar residue on the corner of my mouth, and smiled dotingly, "Daddy will take you home."

"Dad...Dad?" There was a strange feeling about this word, as if something terrible would happen as soon as he opened his mouth, so the two words rolled around in his throat a few times before coming out intermittently.

"Yes, I am Dad."

"Dad... what is Dad?"

"...that stinky woman!" The man cursed in a low voice, and then smiled warmly, "Dad, she is the one who will love you and love you."

"Oh."

"Are you not happy?"

"happy?"

"..." The man was silent for a while, and finally stepped into the opened door with a twitching corner of his mouth. "How on earth did that woman raise a child? Hey..."

The man led me around for a long time without stopping, passing through countless shining stars until I came to an empty hall.There are countless small screens on the surrounding walls, with different pictures flashing from time to time. Occasionally, a few screens will suddenly become larger, and then a red frame will pop out with the word "BUG" on it.

The man put me on the ground, then turned around and waved his hand, there was a translucent keyboard-like thing in front of him, his fingers flew, and after a while, a long string of codes flew out from his hand, added to the bug, and then the screen restarted. Get smaller and return to normal color.

I looked at his back and gnawed my candied haws again in boredom.

"Bang, bang, bang..." The sound of chewing echoed in the hall.

After a long time, he finally finished what he was doing. The man looked back at me and saw that I was still standing there, eating candied haws non-stop. He froze for a moment, then patted himself on the head, as if Very headache.

He squatted down and put his arms around me. He took a few deep breaths before suppressing the strange feelings surging up from the bottom of his heart.

"Son, what do you want?" He sighed, with guilt that couldn't be concealed in his eyes.

"I don't want it." I shook my head and continued chewing.

"... Sigh." He pressed his forehead, "Who is this following...Although such a temperament is really suitable...but..."

Despite the headache, the man tried his best to make me happy.After getting along for a long time, I also know that he wants to make me happy, so even though I am not in a happy mood, I will still face him with a smile.

He is very responsible and always teaches me something, and I follow him to learn from him like a stream. However, no matter whether it is flames in the hand or lightning in the fingertips, it will not make me have too much mood swings.

"Why?..." The man was puzzled and had a headache.

I looked at him, and I also wondered why.

Then, continue to eat candied haws.

"Quack, quack..."

Seeing the candied haws in my hand that hadn’t diminished for hundreds of years, the man finally patted his head, took it from my hand and looked at it a few times as if suddenly enlightened, his eyes were full of understanding and annoyance.

"That bastard woman!" Gritting her teeth, she felt ashamed, "So she was already prepared... But I don't want to..."

Since then, I have never seen the candied haws that have been in my hands since I was conscious.

The consequences of the sudden disappearance of things that have been chewed for centuries are very serious. The most obvious consequence is that my mouth can no longer rest. It piled up into mountains, but now the hills are shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The man went out more and more frequently, and brought back more and more food, but it was useless, and the hill was still shrinking.

In the past, men didn't seem to care much about food, so they didn't use their strength on this aspect.But now he wanted to use it, but it was too late, because the things he made were not as delicious as candied haws, nor were they as durable as candied haws.

Looking at me, who was staring at the screen with a finger biscuit in my mouth, and taking over from him to fix the bug, the man sighed and made a decision.

"Father is taking you to a place."

"Where?" I didn't look back, my fingers were still flying.

"A place where you can learn feelings..."

The sound drifts away...

……

"Hey, it's time for class. You're still standing here, do you want the professor to punish you to finish the thesis independently?" The brown-haired girl was holding two books, smiling teasingly, with two small canine teeth showing at the corners of her mouth.

I was stunned for a moment, and smiled habitually, "If this is the case, why don't Miss Ling come to help?"

"You!" The girl smiled and poked me, "Let's go."

"Good good."

"Shall we go to have dessert together after class? Hmm... how about going to the black rice cake shop? I want to eat tiramisu, hiss, the texture, the taste, absolutely amazing!"

"Okay, but I still want to eat mung bean crisps?"

"Let's compete to see who is notified first. Those who are late or whose resumes are rejected will be treated~"

"Hmm, then I'll wait for your treat!"

"you go!"

……

"Look, it really is your treat!" I laughed with my hands on my hips.

"Isn't it that the text message was received one minute late, why ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

"Oh, this is character, but, seeing how pitiful you are, I invite you this time (≧≦)ゞ" I pretended to be generous.

"mua~ I love you the most!"

"Hmm, let's go!"

"go!"

……

"Ah~ It tastes good, it has a special flavor!" The girl exclaimed, and took another big mouthful.

"Hey! Save some for me!"

"La la la~ I finally killed you, so I don't want it! Oops!"

"Hahaha, the last piece is mine!" I proudly threw the mung bean cake in my hand.

"Hey, eat slowly..."

"Cough, cough, cough..."

"Hey, how are you?"

"cough……"

"Don't scare me..."

"..."

"Hey!!"

……

"Wow--"

"It's born, madam is born!"

"Master patriarch, madam is born!! It's a young lady, she was carved out of the same mold as madam, she is very beautiful."

The middle-aged woman handed the child to the man.The man stretched out his hand helplessly. Although the smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't be suppressed, his long-standing face perfectly concealed his mental activities.

"Well, good. Let's call her...Xia Yue, 'The breeze in the summer night winds around the branches, and the beauty under the moon relieves her sorrow.' May her life...be happy and worry-free." Looking at the little girl in her arms with her eyes closed tightly, Baby girl, he couldn't help smiling.

"Fu Yue-san, don't you...don't want her to become a powerful ninja?" The woman lying on the quilt was sweating, but she still looked at the man in black not far away with a smile.

"No, my family already has a talented eldest son who can keep her forever." The man lowered his eyes, looked at the child, and then sighed, "Although I say that, it seems...unrealistic."

"……yes."

The cherry blossoms outside the window were falling and swirling down, the little baby closed his eyes, and seemed to be sleeping soundly, but his ears trembling from time to time showed that all this was just a disguise.

"What's going on here, hey!...Time-traveling?...Rebirth?...It's too bloody, hey!" A little person in his heart was scratching the ground crazily, and the question marks and exclamation marks almost buried the shrunken version of her. stand up.

The child approached lightly, lying on the edge of the not-so-high cradle, his bright eyes were like obsidian, and his not-so-long hands and feet made what he wanted to do extremely difficult.

The little baby heard his voice, and wanted to ignore it, but, after all, it is an unfamiliar environment, and the plot can only be triggered by getting in touch with new characters!

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a chubby little finger planning to attack his forehead. He was shocked and stared angrily!

"..."

The child withdrew his fingers awkwardly, "Did I wake you up?"

……

"Itachi~" flutter--

"I told you, it's called Nissan." Pick up--poke--

"Yes, yes, Itachi Nissan." He frowned and held his forehead.

"Be a little more serious, hey!" His face was paralyzed on the surface, and the table was lifted in his heart (╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻

"Yes Yes."

"..."

……

"Ah~ As expected, 'Uji Gintoki Red Bean Rice Bowl' is the best~" The little girl put down the bowl and rubbed her belly in satisfaction.

The boy next to him with horoscopes on his face put down the stick in his hand, and retorted solemnly: "No, it's the three-color balls!" Silently recalling the bowl that was just eaten up was named "Uji Ginshi Red Beans" Rice bowl", half rice and half red beans paired with a strange unknown object, he finally couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth, "... By the way, what the hell is that?"

"This is my male god's favorite ~ the most delicious red bean rice in the world!" Said, pink bubbles rose from the little girl's back.

"...Isn't your male god Hokage-sama?" A few days ago, Mingming was thinking of throwing himself into his arms, but his father saw the always sunny Hokage-sama with a guilty conscience and ran away for two consecutive days. I didn't dare to come home for a month.

"Ahem, this is different, one is a spiritual idol, and the other is an ideal teacher~"

"……you win."

"Great! How many times is this? I want to write it down!!" As she spoke, the little girl took out a scroll and added another stroke on the already densely packed front: "Itachi: minus 34."

"..."

……

"You know? Mother is pregnant."

"Huh? - Is this time already?!"

"what?"

"No, nothing..."

"What are you worried about?"

"Oh, you think too much. I'm only two years old, two years old, not twenty. Are you worried that this kind of emotion will appear on me?"

"……Too."

……

"Your brother is born, you can finally establish the majesty of your brother hahaha!"

"...Sure enough, I'm still too relaxed with you, let's practice shuriken again."

"Eh?! Don't ahhh--"

……

"My male god is gone..."

"Cry if you want to."

"Well, sure enough, I still don't want it. Kushina will be unhappy when she hears it."

"You……"

……

"Let's have one more brother, shall we?"

"...if you like it."

"Let me introduce, Naruto, Uzumaki Naruto, he will be my younger brother from now on."

"What about Sasuke?"

"...What do you mean? Do you want to monopolize my kawaii Ododo, huh? Don't even think about it!!"

"You already have one Q/AQ"

"...Then, then I will reluctantly give you half of Naruto's time, and you are not allowed to compete with me for Sasuke!"

"……All right."

……

"Study hard and get along well with your friends~" He stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder.

"...Understood." A black line appeared on his face.

……

"Study hard and get along well with your friends~" He stretched out his hand and touched his head.

"...Don't copy what I said last year, hey!"

"puff!"

"Pfft your sister!"

"correct."

"..." I hate Zhishui! !

……

"I'm going to the dark department."

"Why? What does father think, obviously I am the eldest son..."

"Haha, naturally I am better and look more like a qualified ninja hahaha!"

"...Don't force me to speak out my speculation."

"what?"

"Although it's hard for me to deduce what my father did, but since you are involved, the reason is obvious."

"...Say, tell me..."

"It must be because of your performance in the Chunin exam."

"...wowowo...well, kneel down to Emperor Naobu and Emperor Logic...TAT"

……

"I also entered the dark department."

"..."

"Aren't you going to say something?"

"...Call me senior." Pat on the shoulder.

"..." =/_=

"Come on, come on, who insisted on being called 'Nissan' all the time? Now I've finally turned around hahaha!"

"……you go!"

……

"Are you ok?"

"Ah. This injury is not serious."

"..."

"What's wrong? Hiss--"

"I made a decision!"

"?"

"If I have the chance, I will learn medical ninjutsu. No, I must learn it."

"There is no shortage of medical ninjas in the clan. You don't have to learn those. In my opinion, as long as your ability is strong enough. It is much better to kill the danger in advance than to make up for the danger after it happens. The price of that is too great .”

"The price...? This kind of thing..."

"what?"

"No, I just don't want anyone to help me heal my injuries when I go out in the future. Where do you want to go?"

"..."

"Hahaha, I'm just kidding! But to be honest, you'd better learn it, after all, it's not always so lucky that you can't hurt your vitals, just in case..."

"...Then go learn it, maybe I will rely on you in the future!"

"Aren't you relying on me now?"

"...That's right. Don't tell father about them, especially Sasuke."

"Yes, it's just because he's worried! You're a good brother!"

"You..."

……

"Hey! Where are you! Don't scare me! Xia Yue! Hey! Answer me! I... what have I done..."

"Itachi, that...wasn't your fault..."

"I know."

……

"Itachi, where did Xia Yue go?"

"Back to father, I...don't know."

"Really? What about Zhishui?"

"……do not know."

"……very good."

……

"Itachi, our security team has something to look for you, come out!"

"it is good."

"Where did you go that night at the clan meeting?"

"I'm not feeling well, staying at home."

"Haven't you seen Zhishui?"

"not at all."

"What about your sister? Why don't you see her come out?"

"I do not know."

"I don't know... Heh! The two of them have been missing for several days, you don't know, she and Zhishui are ordered to follow and monitor you, because you show signs of betraying your tribe!"

"..." She wouldn't do that.

"Look at what this is?! This is your sister's suicide note discovered by the tribe! She said, 'I can't bear this kind of life anymore, who will save me!' Now Zhishui is gone, and even your sister They say they can't bear this kind of life, what else do you have to say?"

"...This is not her handwriting." Even if it is, it is not something innocent like a suicide note. It seems that it is just a complaint about not being able to eat the soup made by her mother when she is on a mission.He has seen her rolling over her stomach and her distorted face because she didn't drink soup after a meal countless times.

"Impossible, we have compared it, and the handwriting is exactly the same as that on her task book, there is no difference! Don't argue with the facts!"

"Facts? The facts you think are nothing but illusions. Everything you perceive is based on your body. Who can guarantee that what you see is the real truth?"

"what do you mean!!"

"Just like what you think, I will be a gentle and honest person, and I will never fight you because of these things, but that is just the fact you think. The real me will not be recognized by you What I am constrained by, my ability is far beyond yours, and now, I am completely disappointed in this mediocre family!"

Knocking down everyone like lightning, the young man shot the shuriken at the wall with a blank expression, and a gap appeared in the clan crest drawn on the wall.

"you!"

"……Ah!"

"No, Nissan!" The little boy hid behind the door, his eyes were red.

"..." After a long silence, he finally knelt down unwillingly, "Sorry, I got a little emotional. I apologize for my rude behavior before, but I really didn't hurt them...they."

"What's the matter?" The middle-aged man came from a distance and saw the "farce" in front of his house.

"Captain!...@#...&&(¥%#" everyone talked about the matter, and told the patriarch all about it.

Ignoring everyone's aggrieved faces, the man only glanced at his son kneeling on the ground, sighed secretly, and then straightened his face, "I believe his words, I will continue to investigate, you go back first."

"Can……"

"Stop talking!" One person held back the dissatisfied teammate, and cast a gloomy glance at the man standing in front of him.

The man turned his head unwillingly, "Yes..."

"Go back, Itachi."

"Yes."

……

"Itachi, your father isn't really angry with you, so don't make trouble with him..." A gentle female voice came from the door, and a slender figure cast on the sliding door.

Itachi, who sat alone with his knees in the dark room, finally looked up at the door.

"It doesn't matter if you don't want to come out to eat, I put the food at the door, you must remember to eat." The woman stood up, complaining to herself, "That child Xia Yue, I don't know where she went, It disappeared without a trace without leaving a message..."

"Mother... I..."

"What's wrong?" Black Shadow paused.

"..." He swallowed hard, and said slowly, "I...killed my sister with my own hands..."

“砰--”“哗啦--”

There was a series of shattering sounds from outside the door, and an unbelievable question: "What... what?"

For a moment he felt that he was truly unforgivable, but he repeated it cruelly, word by word, slowly and clearly uttering the cruelest words, hurting his mother's heart and hurting himself.

He stayed in the room for two days without stepping out of the room.Mother lingered in front of the door for two days, never stepped into the room, and never said a word to him.

Two days later, while his mother was cooking, there was news that Hokage and the advisory group wanted to see him.

He changed his clothes and appeared in front of them, expressionless.

"The movement of that family has become bigger and bigger..."

"Nip all dangers in the bud..."

"The Uchiha clan can no longer stay..."

"That family is too dangerous..."

"Things still have room to turn around..."

"I hope you can cooperate from inside to outside..."

"You have to focus on the overall situation..."

He just nodded expressionlessly and exited the conference room.

Then, as he knew with a hunch, Danzo found him and proposed a deal that he thought was ridiculous to the extreme.

"If you destroy Uchiha yourself, you can still save your favorite siblings; but if the Uchiha rebellion is successful, then the village will never tolerate anyone, and your younger siblings will really want to be with you Those arrogant clansmen died there together."

... If she is still here, why does he need to make this deal?With her temperament, how could she just sit and wait for death?

Maybe, she will really lead the clansmen to fight the village and then change places and move in a cool way...

If it wasn't for yearning for the warmth of this moment, if it wasn't for worrying that the war would consume too much combat power and give foreign countries an opportunity, or...

pity……

"it is good."

……

He went to find a person, a person who he had investigated for a long time, who had a deep hatred for the Uchiha clan and wanted revenge on the clan.He made a condition that the two of them would cooperate, except for Sasuke, the rest...not one of them.

...Blood night, blood moon, blood crow, blood...people...

The blade cut across the flesh, warm blood splashed, familiar people fell one by one, their eyes were unbelievably surprised and so clear, "Traitor..."

Standing in front of the door, looking at the dimly lit room, he dared not push the door for a long time, nor did he want to.

That was his last stop. If he really arrived, he would never be able to turn back...

No, he can't go back, since ten days ago.

"... Itachi?" A weak but extremely familiar voice came from behind, like the sound of heaven.

He suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked back. Under the moonlight, her figure became thinner and thinner. She was holding on to the door frame, her face was bloodless, but the look in her eyes could not be duplicated.

Eager to determine her life and death, he dropped his calm cloak for the first time, but it was only for a moment, and soon, he changed back to the self who seemed to know everything well.

Now, not yet...

Dozens of auras hidden behind, a powerful aura that suddenly appeared in the house...

not yet...

……

"We have to learn to act..."

"What drama?"

"Nonsense, of course it's a show that fooled the old guys, after all, you don't want to have no reservations about them, do you?"

"..."

"You really think so, hey!"

"..."

"Hey, I can understand loving the village, but is it really okay for you to pin all your hopes on a few old people? I want to change the thinking of a 60-year-old old man and a 6-year-old child. That's easier, don't you know?"

"What do you think?"

"I... well, I don't have a detailed plan, but I already have a general idea."

"tell me the story."

"One of them is to let me pretend that I don't know anything and continue to stay in the village. As for you, just be wronged and be a traitor to the village. You can fight wherever the village asks you to fight, and I will support you mentally in the rear The second is to recruit funds and people to slowly increase our influence from some inconspicuous places. By the time they realize it, we are basically unshakable! Third, I haven’t thought of it yet. Think about it slowly."

"...It's almost the same as if you didn't say it."

"...cough cough, all in all, I won't just let Uchiha fall, one day I will let his name spread throughout the ninja world!"

"Is your person set wrong?"

"you go!"

"..."

"Oh, well, this ideal is about the lofty, the more ordinary, that is, one day, I will make the world peaceful."

"This is even more incredible..."

"Oh you know."

"..."

"Then you still do it? Putting aside the reason of wanting world peace, don't you think that being a young patriarch is too tiring and don't want to take on the burden of your father? Or do you think that after killing a clan, you can be a mercenary to work and support your younger brother?" Don't you have to think about life and death?"

"..."

"Hey, don't you think you don't have enough things to memorize? You are just a person, and you are just a child. The coordination of these relationships between a village and a family is not simply about right and wrong, those checks and balances, and the secret suppression. You can’t explain it clearly. There are twists and turns in it that you can’t understand for decades, even if you are older, it doesn’t mean you can learn it early.”

"..."

"I think, if the old man didn't send you to the Anbu, now you should have started to learn the things in the clan, and then you should have a more thorough understanding of the difficulty of standing in that position... that's it. I won’t be thinking about living in a world of black and white until now.”

"..."

"Sometimes, people should learn to live in gray areas. There are no purely good or bad people in the world. Some are just driven by necessity and interests. Pure people are only suitable for living in fairy tales, but reality can never change. into a fairy tale."

"..."

"What I said is too profound? Can't understand? Why don't you speak?"

"I think...you are a bit like Grandma Zechuan who lives in the east..."

"you go!"

……

"The next time we meet, act well and don't pretend to be!"

"rest assured."

"Take care of yourself?"

"Take care of yourself."
