Konoha: I, Uchiha, just want to die.

Chapter 279: After three days of separation, each of them has grown!

After agreeing to Hidan and promising to help him kill the Daimyo of the Land of Lightning,
Mei Terumi supported herself on the fence with one hand and quickly leaped to the edge of the platform outside the fence, her eyes cast calmly into the distance.

Looking at the group of Tang ninja rebels who were captured by the Kumogakure ninja and were about to be taken for execution.

Then, she turned her head slightly and smiled gently at Feidan.
"Well, my sensible child, I will give you another welcome gift."

"We rescued those people as well."

Hearing this, Feidan was stunned.
My heart, which was already dark and without any hope, suddenly seemed to be illuminated by a ray of light.
But
This woman just now had an attitude of "I can't save you, just wait to die" and said goodbye, she was just about to open her hand and slap the old man to knock him unconscious and take him away,

But now, what is going on?

Is the word "sister-in-law" really so powerful?

Thinking of this, Feiduan couldn't help but feel warm in his heart and was somewhat moved.

Uchiha Ci, ah Uchiha Ci, you are really helping me even if you die!
Before Feidan could come to his senses, a hand patted his shoulder heavily and pulled him back.

Then, Feidan saw a cold face.
A white-haired ninja wearing a forehead protector with four water patterns and a tiger fang, with an indifferent look on his face, as if everyone owed him two thousand and five hundred thousand. He had an upright posture and a large and heavy broadsword with two handles and wrapped in bandages on his back.

From this person's very distinctive features, Feidan immediately recognized that this was the Kirigakure prodigy who had fought his eldest brother Uchiha Ci twice in a row, but the result was still undecided.

Ghost Lantern Full Moon!

Feidan had heard of this person, but had never seen him. Today was the first time he saw him.
However, shouldn't this guy be on the opposite side of them?

Then, Hidan heard—

"Go to the room below and stay there."

"The battle that is coming is not something that a rubbish Genin like you can participate in."

Mangetsu stared at him coldly, like a butcher looking at a piece of dead meat on a chopping board, and raised his hand and simply pointed in the direction behind him, where there were two Mist Ninjas wearing Kumogakure forehead protectors.
He was holding a set of very strong hemp ropes in his hands and was staring at Feiduan dimly.

Seeing this, Feiduan couldn't help sweating on his forehead.

What's going on here?

Sir, could it be that my situation is like what is written in the book, where I escaped from the tiger's den and fell into the wolf's lair?
"If you want your people alive, tie your hands and cooperate with us."

Kizuna Mangetsu stared at Feidan calmly and indifferently, and said lightly:

"A ninja should understand the so-called choice of advance and retreat, and besides, Kirigakure is not a charity."

"Do you really think that woman would lend you a helping hand just because you two met once?"

"Not even a three-year-old would believe that kind of nonsense."

"So, you, who have no power, actually have no choice. The only thing you can do is,"

"You can only offer your head in exchange for the lives of those people."

"That's all."

After hearing these words, Feiduan was silent for a moment and lowered his eyes.

Then, he turned around and glanced at the silent figure standing on the edge of the platform with her back to him.

Yes,

The so-called trade-offs,
In the chaos of the Third Ninja World War,

In the gap between the war between rock and fog that had just stopped,

During this period of time when my elder brother Uchiha Ci was not around, not seeing him, not even paying attention to him,

Feidan has experienced this countless times.
Every time the curse of death by blood is performed, it requires the people who trust you to sacrifice their lives to take the enemy's blood.
Those who perished with the enemy were far more relatives and friends than the enemy himself.

One after another, the lives of people pushed Hidan, who only had the fighting power of a Genin, to his current position.
Let him, a mere Genin, face off against the toughest Daimyo of the Five Great Nations, the Land of Lightning!

How could he not understand?

What is trade-off?

"I understand."

Feidan let out a deep breath.

Then, he raised his head, opened his pair of bright lavender eyes, and bared his teeth at Gui Deng Man Yue.
"but,"

"People like you don't understand, and won't comprehend!"

"Even if it's only for one day!"

"The bond between life and death will form a bond that will never be severed. Even if we are thousands of miles apart or have opposing views, this thing will definitely exist in some form!"

"We'll see"

As long as that guy comes, I will definitely step on your stinky face!

Manzuki watched as Feidan tied his hands and brushed shoulders with him, then walked behind him. His single eye flickered for a moment.

Immediately, he snorted coldly.
"absurd!"

#
Soon, only Mei Terumi and Mangetsu Kizuki were left on the platform.
The sun gradually rises higher and shines on the earth.

The golden sunlight illuminated the still dim Yunming City, passing through the high peaks and the wide plains.
It illuminated the execution ground where people were crowded and a little noisy.

Staring in that direction,

Man Yue couldn't help but narrow her eyes and asked the girl sitting on the railing:

"Do you really believe that the blood that boy got was real?"

Mei Terumi shook her head and calmly looked down at the city below which was gradually coming to life.
"fake."

"Standards, transformation techniques, disguise techniques, there are so many ways to avoid having your blood taken."

"Especially when that person is the most distinguished person in this country."

"Then why do you want to help him?" Gui Deng Man Yue asked in a deep voice.
"We came all the way here just to watch such a farce? Don't forget what kind of changes our village is going through right now!"

"Mei Terumi, even if you are as willful as you are now, you should know your limits!"

Mei Terumi didn't even turn her head. She raised her hands and pressed on the railing to support her body and stood up. She raised the corners of her mouth wantonly in the wind.
Open your arms as if embracing this country!

"Man Yue, since you have chosen to believe me, you might as well continue to believe me."

"Assassinating the daimyo is what we are destined to do!"

"And isn't this exactly what you expect and what you want from me after betraying your master again?"

Man Yue Kizuna took a deep breath, frowned, and a well-shaped pattern appeared faintly on his forehead.

"I admit that what the little brat said at the beginning made some sense."

"But the one I want to take down is that obstructive, indecisive daimyo of the Land of Water!"

"And now, you bring me to the Land of Thunder to kill this Daimyo. This is completely the opposite of the truth!"

Mei Terumi smiled slightly, raised her head, and looked deep into the city, at the heavily guarded castle tower!

"This is an experiment."

"I want to verify my inner thoughts!"

"To resolve all the differences and finally answer them—"

"The difference between you and me,"

"The Differences in Kirigakure,"

"Disagreements over the future direction of war,"

"A country that does not need a daimyo, a country where everyone is a master, a brand new era, an era that allows ninjas to break free from their shackles,"

"What will it be like?"

"What exactly should be done? I want to witness it with my own eyes—"

Facing the cold wind in the early morning,

Mei Terumi's eyes turned cold, and she spoke calmly:

"Even if it means the country beneath our feet falls apart!"

Hearing this exaggerated reason,
In order to defeat the Daimyo of Water Country, you must first defeat the Daimyo of Lightning Country.

Just to see what a country that has lost its reputation will become, and then govern my own country based on this!
After getting the answer, Man Yue Kizuna couldn't help but feel a slight tingling on her scalp.

When he looked at Mei Terumi's back, there was only fear in his eyes, deep fear.

He originally thought that this girl who had been raised in the Hidden Mist Greenhouse since childhood was just a vase.

until--

The war that was changed and prolonged by Uchiha's resignation came.

In the extreme environment where Karatachi Yagura's Kirisame Organization, the Third Mizukage, and the Elders all insisted on their own opinions, they all emphasized that they were the ones who could lead Shuiwuli to tomorrow.
The Hidden Mist Village is in a critical situation with three parties in turmoil.

This girl in front of me went to the battlefield to resist the sudden attack of Iwagakure and experienced one life-and-death battle after another.

After encountering the Five-Tails Jinchuriki of Iwagakure in that war,

Everything changes.

He mastered the ability of Boiling Style to freely adjust the acidity, and learned from the Five-Tails Jinchuriki how to control the boiling of mist, and truly developed Boiling Style to a level that makes one's scalp tingle.

Finally mastered the Boiling Release: Super Strength!

A terrifying woman who can fight the tailed beast with her human body and quickly become stronger!
Mei Terumi possesses chakra and water-style fusion strength comparable to that of a tailed beast, and has made up for the last shortcoming in close combat.

In that war, she was even more dazzling than Karuji Yagura!
Genius is like a ghost lantern full moon,
After this girl changed her laziness,
With the will to do whatever it takes to become stronger,
Under the light it radiates,
After the other party deeply understood Uchiha Ci's arrogant words, his vision far surpassed the foresight of all the people in Kirigakure!
In the end, he also chose to surrender.

Retracting his gaze, Man Yue was silent for a moment, then asked:

"Then why did you save those soup ninjas?"

"They are too weak. In today's Yunming City, such a force is not worth exposing your own intelligence to attack."

Mei Terumi turned her head, a sly light flashed in her clear green eyes, and she smiled slightly.
"This group of soup ninjas are the last group of evil god followers who followed Feidan."

"But, they are not only followers of the evil god, but also the arrogant criminals who assassinated the Raikage."

"If they are here, many people can use their names to attack the Daimyo of the Land of Lightning."

Gui Deng Man Yue was stunned.
"A lot of people?"

"Besides us, is there anyone else who wants to kill the Daimyo of the Land of Lightning?"

Mei Terumi let out a breath, turned around helplessly, and glanced at Mangetsu Kizuki.

"Okay, stop whining,"

"Why are you always asking questions like Qing? It's annoying. I already have a partner to marry. As a subordinate, I have to avoid suspicion. Do you understand?"

"Hurry and do something!"

"Go to the execution ground and release a Mist Hidden Jutsu. We don't even need to do anything. Someone will save them!"

Gui Deng Man Yue raised his eyebrows and glanced at the place where all kinds of people were gathered.

He raised his hands and grasped the handles of the two swords behind him, Hirame-no-Hagi.
It is worth mentioning that his uncle Chiba Chiba, who originally held the Hirame Aoi, died in a war not long ago. He finally got his wish and became a member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen and truly held this sword.

After preparing for battle,

Mangetsu raised his head and looked at Mei Terumi, with the corners of his mouth raised, revealing his white teeth like shark teeth.
"One last question, the future Yondaime,"

"you say--"

"That arrogant little devil, is he still alive?"

Hearing this question, Mei Terumi fell silent for a moment.
Then, she raised her head, her eyes fixed,
"He won't die so easily!"

"Besides, this time, I won't be as powerless as before!"
