Ninja World: I've already fought the Five Kage head-on, and the system is only now showing up.

Chapter 86 Sorry, Clan Chief (Seeking First Subscription)

A cold wind howled, stirring up large swaths of fallen leaves.

The already chilly area around the memorial site became even more eerie at this moment.

After asking the question, Yu Yi Xuan Yue turned her head calmly.

Beside him stood a man dressed in a gray-blue ninja outfit, his eyes, ears, the back of his neck, and his head above his head wrapped in white-gray bandages, his expression quite complicated.

Hagoromo Dragonfly, or Flying Bamboo Dragonfly, is a Chunin of Konoha, a member of the Intelligence Analysis Team, and a former proctor of the Chunin Exams. He currently reports directly to Yamanaka Inoichi.

This resume may not seem as impressive as those of Jonin, but being in the crucial position of intelligence analysis, which provides immediate access to information both inside and outside the village, undoubtedly demonstrates the Hokage's deep trust in him.

The Flying Bamboo Dragonfly is also the most important member of the Hagoromo clan's current mole in Konoha.

The news of Yu Yi Xuan Yue's arrival in Konoha had already been communicated to the Yu Yi clan's secret agents in Konoha.

Sōsuke handed over his identity without the slightest hesitation, even though it meant he could never return to Konoha.

But the bamboo dragonfly is different.

During this period of time, he has not taken the initiative to contact me.

Or perhaps they came, but retreated when the time came.

Yu Yi Xuan Yue already had a guess at what this meant, so she casually asked another question:

Where is the Fifth Hokage now?

As expected, the bamboo dragonfly remained silent.

After a short while, Flying Bamboo Dragonfly sighed and finally spoke, "I'm sorry, Chieftain."

"The reason," Yu Yi Gengetsu said directly, looking at Senju Hashirama's tombstone.

Feather Dragonfly's face flashed with a mix of emotions: guilt, panic, nostalgia, and relief.

After a moment of recollection, he answered slowly and heavily in an awkward tone:

"My grandfather, my father, my mother, and my wife all died fighting for Konoha."

"You don't hate Konoha?" Hagoromo Gengetsu asked, looking at the solemn and dignified photo of Senju Hashirama on the tombstone.

"Hate? Of course I've felt hatred." Flying Bamboo Dragonfly's eyes were filled with complex emotions. "But if I continue to hate like this, wouldn't the sacrifices of my grandfather, my parents, and my wife be completely meaningless? Wouldn't that be utterly ridiculous?"

"I'm sorry, clan leader. Although we are descendants of the Hagoromo clan, we have lived in Konoha for decades and have long since become completely integrated into it without realizing it. At least, those relatives who died were truly willing to fight for Konoha, not forced into it."

Upon hearing this, Yu Yi Xuan Yue stretched out her palm, caught a leaf that fell from the sky, and traced the unique patterns on the leaf with her fingers, saying softly:

"So, the inheritor of the Will of Fire?"

"Yes!" Flying Bamboo Dragonfly said with a firm gaze.

Yu Yixuan understood.

He had anticipated this situation after taking over the Yu Yi clan in Sukuzen Village and understanding their current state.

Breaking down the whole into smaller parts and dispersing them is indeed an excellent way to ensure the continuation of a clan.

But this also brought about division.

No matter how much one emphasizes their background.

People from different ethnic groups, raised in different places, with different cultures and educations, have developed their own unique characteristics.

As time goes on, the signs of a complete split will only become more and more obvious.

Unless a highly respected and powerful person steps forward to reunite everything.

Yu Yi Xuan Yue is now playing this role.

But there are still some things that are difficult to change.

For example, the lineage of the flying bamboo dragonfly.

Yu Yi Xuan Yue can understand Fei Zhu Qing Ting's choice.

He wasn't angry. He casually tossed the leaf aside and reminded the other person, "Now that you've decided on your side, the worst thing you can do is waver. You should be bringing the main force of Konoha here, not coming alone."

Flying Bamboo Dragonfly shook her head with a wry smile: "Although I am now a member of Konoha, I still have Hagoromo's bloodline in my veins. I simply cannot bring myself to harm the clan leader."

Upon hearing this, Yu Yi Xuan Yue shook her head and said, "Such an outcome will only bring you misfortune."

"I understand," said the bamboo dragonfly with a firm gaze.

He took a deep breath and said to Yu Yi Xuan Yue, "As an intelligence agent for the Yu Yi clan in Konoha, I know that my betrayal will bring terrible consequences to the clan. Therefore, clan leader, I will end all of this with my death. I only ask one thing of you."

"explain."

"My son. He has never left Konoha, nor did he know that he was a descendant of the Hagoromo clan. I only hope that he can live in Konoha without any burdens, and not have to bear the heavy name of 'Hagoromo' like I did."

Yu Yi Xuan Yue remained silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "I understand."

Then, he turned around and looked earnestly at the flying bamboo dragonfly, saying, "I'm sorry. To be honest, it's because of me that we've all separated."

"Without a clan leader, the fate of the Feathered Robe Clan will only be worse."

Knowing the past, Feizhu Qingting spoke these words sincerely, and finally bowed deeply to Yuyi Xuanyue before turning and leaving.

He needed some time to say goodbye to his son.

Yu Yi Xuan Yue did not stop her.

Even if you guarantee that the secret will not be leaked after the intelligence agent who was lurking in his village betrays you, you will only be silenced.

This is the way of survival for a clan or a faction.

Yu Yi Xuan Yue understood this principle long ago.

He glanced one last time at Hashirama Senju's grave, then, having nothing more to say, turned and left.

We arrived at the bustling and lively street.

Yu Yi Xuan Yue casually helped a three- or four-year-old girl who was playing around with her friends and almost bumped into her.

The little girl politely thanked him, saying, "Thank you, uncle."

"Call me brother."

Yu Yi Xuan Yue patted the little girl's bun, and just then she saw an acquaintance. She gestured for the little girl to go play, and then walked over herself.

"I've seen that Feathered Robe Crescent Moon with my own eyes; he's terrifying. I'm worried that Sasuke might encounter some misfortune if he goes there."

"Relax, Sakura. Although Sasuke's decision to betray the village without any hesitation makes me very angry, he's not stupid and must have his own judgment. Also, despite Hagoromo Gengetsu's current infamous reputation, he's actually a very good person in some ways."

"What a kind person? Yu Yi Xuan Yue? Ino, are you delirious from the fever? Let me touch your forehead."

"Go touch your own broad forehead. Sakura, I'm telling the truth. Really! My family has records of Hagoromo Gengetsu's life."

As soon as Yu Yi Xuan Yue approached, she heard Sakura and Ino talking about themselves.

He raised an eyebrow, inserted himself, and asked curiously:

"Sakura, Ino, I heard you two are talking about Hagoromo Gengetsu. I'm quite curious about him too."

"In your eyes, what kind of person is Yu Yi Xuan Yue?"
