In the dead of night, Ningxia looked at Mingzi and Bai, who were fast asleep beside her, and carefully got out of bed.

At this point, Susanoo had disappeared. Ningxia opened the talisman progress panel and found that the Sheep Talisman was at 23% and the Snake Talisman had also broken through the 65 mark.

If nothing unexpected happens, the next talisman should be the sheep talisman.

"Really, it's not a cow or a rabbit."

Ningxia frowned. What he lacked most were means of counterattack and escape, but the absolute invisibility of the snake talisman was still enough, so he wasn't completely without any ability to fight back.

However, seeing the progress was so fast, Ningxia finally breathed a sigh of relief. With such a big improvement, Zhishui must have survived.

As if to confirm Ningxia's idea, a sound came from the backyard. Ningxia activated her invisibility and came to the backyard. After seeing Itachi supporting Shisui, she lowered her guard.

"You're not dead?"

Ningxia asked in an annoyed tone.

"I'm sorry... no... I should say thank you, Ningxia."

Zhi Shui originally thought that Ning Xia gave him the amulet as a keepsake, but he never expected that it could actually heal his injuries, and almost completely at that.

The only problem is that she thought she was going to die, so she gouged out her eyes and gave them to Itachi, which is why she is still blind.

What happened to your eyes?

Ningxia found it strange. The power in the amulet was enough to replenish Zhishui's pupil power, so how could it possibly cause her to continue to be blind?

"I...deducted it..."

Shisui's voice grew weaker and weaker, as if she had an urge to die, after all, she had said those things, yet she had unexpectedly survived.

"..."

If it were anyone else, Ningxia might still call them an idiot, but with Zhishui... well, he is an idiot to begin with.

"Ningxia, what should we do with Zhishui now?"

On the way back, Itachi learned the whole story and found it hard to believe that Shisui, who had always trusted the village, had chosen to do it in this way...

"Stay with me."

Ningxia has completely run out of options against Zhishui; this guy probably won't survive outside.

"But the Anbu..."

"It's okay, I'll handle it."

Ningxia didn't explain further, but instead took Shisui and told Itachi to leave quickly so as not to give them any leverage.

"Shisui...take care."

As Itachi left, Shisui became even more embarrassed. Ningxia had clearly left her a final solution, yet she had foolishly gouged out her own eyes.

"I'm sorry... I... I'm an idiot."

Zhi Shui took the initiative to back down; after all, it was better to act like a fool than to be scolded by Ningxia at this time.

"Alright, come in quickly, I'll get your eyes fixed."

Ningxia picked up Zhishui and carried him back to the room in a bad mood. After feeling his body floating in the air, he subconsciously leaned on Ningxia.

Although he couldn't see clearly, Zhishui's hearing became more sensitive than usual, and he could feel Ningxia's heavy heartbeat.

However, before she could finish listening, Ningxia had already put her down and told her to lie down obediently.

As a doctor, Ningxia did not simply rely on the Horse Talisman, but truly learned various medical skills and traveled the ninja world as a doctor.

Ningxia only uses horse talismans when faced with problems that cannot be solved by medical means; otherwise, if everything could be cured easily, it would inevitably attract covetousness.

"Relax, it might be a little itchy."

Ningxia placed her hand on Zhishui's hollow eye socket, and the power of the horse talisman began to construct a completely new pair of eyes for Zhishui.

Sensing the imperfections in her eyes, Ningxia estimated that if they could be repaired, they would become an eternal kaleidoscope.

With a try-it-and-see attitude, Ningxia began to help Zhishui repair the defects.

"Well……"

Shizuku let out a painful groan; the pain of the eye reconstruction process was far more unbearable than gouging out his eyes.

However, she remembered Ningxia's instructions and knew she had to hold on no matter what.

Once the eyes were fully formed, Shisui let out a muffled groan and fainted.

Ningxia re-examined the new eyes to ensure they were correct, and then shared the power of the snake talisman with her.

As long as Shisui doesn't attack first, with the power of the Snake Talisman, she won't be discovered even if she drinks, gets a perm, and dances in front of Yugao.

The atmosphere in Konoha became noticeably heavy the following day, even though the Third Hokage had kept quiet in advance and explained the events of the previous day by citing an enemy attack.

But both the villagers and the various clans felt uneasy, especially the Jonin who had personally participated in the siege of Shisui.

That godlike power would have killed most people if Shisui hadn't shown mercy.

The consensus among everyone except Danzo is that the Uchiha should not be provoked.

The Uchiha faction also learned the truth through special channels, which made the coup plotters even more powerful, but now there is another problem.

So, who is Shisui? If she's not here, who will lead their coup? Besides Shisui, who else could lead their coup?

After Shisui's rampage, Konoha and the Uchiha clans fell into a strange balance. Konoha was wary of Shisui's uncertain fate and the weakening effect of the loss of Jonin.

The Uchiha clan awaits the return of their Shisui, who will lead the Uchiha coup and become Hokage.

At the center of this vortex, Zhi Shui was fast asleep at his home in Ningxia.

Although she ended up in a sorry state, she felt an unprecedented sense of relief after the commotion.

For the sake of her village, she fought with all her might in the Third Shinobi World War; for the sake of the Uchiha clan, she burned her own eyes.

Now, she owes neither the village nor the Uchiha clan anything.

Without any pressure, I naturally slept very soundly.

She woke up because of the aroma of food. Opening her eyes to complete darkness, Shisui sighed bitterly. Was she ultimately not cured?

"Time for breakfast, you idiot."

Ningxia carried the medicinal meal into the room with a disgruntled expression. Watching her touch the bandage on her eyes and sigh with a bitter smile, she had already given up all hope for her intelligence.

"Ningxia? Sorry... Don't worry about my eyes. Being blind is better than being dead."

Zhi Shui comforted Ning Xia, telling her not to feel guilty for not curing her eyes. Ning Xia's lips twitched. After turning off the lights and closing the door, she untied the bandages.

As a sliver of light entered Shisui's vision, she immediately covered her eyes in great pain.

Is it possible that new eyes need time to adjust?

"Forehead……"

Zhi Shui was even more embarrassed, but Ning Xia was too lazy to say anything more to her. Instead, she re-bandaged her and fed her medicinal food.

"Um... Ningxia, what should I do next?"

"Stay here! You still owe me for the medicine and the amulet!"

"Oh……"

Although Ningxia's tone was somewhat cold, Zhishui could feel his concern. What was this called again? Tsundere?
