Chapter 207 Sakura's Fall

The news of Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki's injuries only spread within a small area of ​​the village.

The news didn't leak out, but people who were close to Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto would gradually find out; since neither of them showed up, people would inquire and eventually find out that they were at the hospital, and then they would know the general situation.

Although they wouldn't be told about the Sage of Six Paths' possession, they did tell the visitors that the two were unconscious and could only be revived by Hakuun Yosuke.

Telling them this was also to put the visitors at ease, since Baiyun Yangjie's reputation was extremely high, and his involvement meant safety; as long as the matter was entrusted to Baiyun Yangjie, there would be absolutely no problem.

Meanwhile, Yosuke Shirakumo was indeed conducting research, not only to revive Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki, but also to study the Six Paths' chakra.

In fact, Shirakumo Yosuke had already figured out why Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto were unconscious using his Omniscience Technique: their spirits were missing a crucial portion of chakra.

Ashura Chakra and Indra Chakra.

Although Hagoromo Otsutsuki did not die in the Pure Land and accumulated and restored a large amount of chakra, he needed an anchor point in the ninja world if he wanted to return to the ninja world.

That is, Ashura Chakra and Indra Chakra. The reincarnation of his two sons' chakra allows him to sense and return to the ninja world. In addition to Ashura Chakra, if he had his own Six Paths Chakra, he could also return.

In another ninja timeline, Hagoromo Otsutsuki used the chakra of Ashura and Indra to transfer power to Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha.

The reason he was able to appear in the ninja world as a spirit was because Madara Uchiha possessed his power in his lower body.

Hagoromo Otsutsuki probably planned to return Indra and Ashura's chakra after sealing Kaguya, so that it wouldn't harm Naruto and Sasuke. However, he didn't expect that Yosuke Shirakumo had already subdued Kaguya Otsutsuki.

Moreover, even after learning about this, Hagoromo Otsutsuki still refused to leave and insisted on sealing Kaguya again, which made Yosuke Shirakumo feel as if there was some indelible deep-seated hatred between Hagoromo Otsutsuki and Kaguya Otsutsuki.

However, to Shirakumo Yosuke, Hagoromo Otsutsuki was not as valuable as Kaguya Otsutsuki. He could not provide Shirakumo Yosuke with any information about Otsutsuki, so Shirakumo Yosuke had no choice but to apologetically eliminate him.

"Just separate the chakra into Indra's chakra and Ashura's chakra, and then annihilate Hagoromo Otsutsuki's will. From this perspective, Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki also benefited."

Using his omniscient divine powers, Shirokumo Yosuke quickly devised a solution.

In this way, he can retain some of Hagoromo Otsutsuki's chakra, which can help him find the Pure Land in the future.

dong dong!

Just as Shiraku Yosuke was separating his chakra, someone suddenly knocked on the door.

"Who could it be? No one should be here to disturb my guess at this hour, especially not here."

Upon hearing the sound, Baiyun Yangjie had no choice but to walk towards the door. When he opened the door, the person who came in surprised him.

"Sakura, what brings you here?"

The person who came in was Sakura Haruno. However, after opening the door, Sakura Haruno didn't say a word. She just looked at Yosuke Shirakumo with a cold gaze, making Yosuke Shirakumo feel very innocent. Could it be because of what happened last time?

Several tens of seconds later, Sakura Haruno walked in.

After Shirakumo Yosuke closed the door, he asked, "Sasuke-kun, when will you wake up?"

"Is that all you're asking? I thought there was even a slight chance you might be coming to see me, Sakura."

After Baiyun Youjie finished speaking, seeing Sakura's clenched fists and unfriendly expression, he changed his tone and said, "It will be soon. Don't worry if I take action. Besides, they will be perfectly fine after they wake up. They might even receive a small gift. But Sakura, it's been a long time since we last saw each other."

Sakura said coldly, "I have nothing to do with you, and you've broken our promise!"

"Sakura, this is not my fault. I really created a lot of opportunities for you at the beginning, but you didn't seize them at all."

As Shirokumo Yosuke spoke, he tried to hug Haruno Sakura, but Haruno Sakura broke free.

"Stop pretending, Yosuke Shirakumo. Have you forgotten about the CSE capsules you invented? After taking one, I already discovered that you would never let me catch up to Sasuke Uchiha, not in the first place!"

Sakura Haruno clenched her fists, almost wanting to punch Yosuke Shirakumo on the spot, and said, "You're lying to me, Yosuke Shirakumo!"

"Because you're so cute and beautiful, Sakura, I'm absolutely not lying to you about that."

Sakura sighed and said that his honest words made her heart tremble. Although she still hated Sakura for lying to her, she could not pretend that she hadn't heard his praise.

Especially Yosuke Shirakumo's expression; the desolation on his face softened Sakura's heart.

"At first, I probably just wanted to keep it a secret and drag you into it so you wouldn't tell anyone about me and Kurenai. But later, I really started to like you, Sakura."

"Smart, resilient, cute and beautiful, and every time I see you, I can feel your shining qualities and I can't help but be attracted to you. Sakura, you should understand how popular you are."

Shirakumo Yosuke's words gradually lessened Sakura Haruno's anger, and seeing the dejection on Shirakumo Yosuke's face, she felt a strange pang of pity. However, Sakura Haruno quickly pinched her fingers and came to her senses.

But Sakura Haruno's reluctance has already surfaced and won't disappear anytime soon.

"Sakura, it's because I discovered your beauty that I couldn't control myself. I know it's wrong, but I really can't push you away. You're like a treasure in the ninja world; I can't forget you."

As Shiraku Yosuke said these words, he stepped forward and hugged Sakura again.

This time, Sakura struggled with all her might, but she wasn't as strong as before. Moreover, facing Yosuke Shirakumo's gaze, Sakura slowly began to feel some inexplicable emotions.

Yosuke Shirakumo is just as handsome, and he is also incredibly strong, earning him the title of "God of Shinobi." Moreover, he holds a high position, being the most powerful person in the Land of Fire. Apart from being a womanizer, Sakura Haruno really can't find any faults in Yosuke Shirakumo.

If Shirakumo Yosuke only loves her, then...

Sakura Haruno couldn't help but think of this possibility: if a handsome, strong, and high-status person pursued her, would she still like Sasuke Uchiha so much? No, no!

Sakura shook her head vigorously, then scolded herself inwardly: 'Sakura, you idiot! You only like Sasuke-kun, stop thinking about it!'

"Sakura?"

Sakura Haruno's voice brought her back to her senses. Remembering she was still in his arms, she immediately struggled to get away, saying, "Impossible! I only love Sasuke, I could never accept you, you heartless bastard!"

"Sakura, let me hug you for a little while, just a little while!"

After Shirakumo Yosuke pulled Sakura Haruno into his arms, his gentle tone and tight embrace quickly made her give up struggling. However, she still stubbornly said, "I came here today to ask you when you woke Sasuke-kun up. Don't overthink it, you bastard."

"I understand, Sakura, but I still like you, and your chances aren't very high anyway. I think I heard Sasuke's mother mention it last time, urging Sasuke to get married as soon as possible, and her preferred candidate is Karin Uzumaki."

"W-what?"

Upon hearing Shirakumo Yosuke's words, Haruno Sakura was momentarily stunned, and for a moment she seemed to turn into a doll as Shirakumo Yosuke held her in his arms.

"Sakura, I don't want to lie to you, but your chances are too slim. If you continue, you'll only get hurt. Give up, Sakura."

Yosuke Shirakumo's voice was so gentle it seemed to have the power to brainwash, echoing in Sakura's ears again and again.

Sakura even saw a scene of Sasuke Uchiha's wedding; the bride in the wedding dress was very beautiful, but it wasn't her.

The image of this scene made Sakura Haruno feel extremely uncomfortable, as if all her strength had been drained away, causing her hands, which were pushing against Yosuke Shirakumo's waist, to hang limply.

"Sakura, entrust your life to me. I'll take care of you from now on."

Shirokumo Yosuke whispered something in Sakura's ear, then moved closer to her cute face and covered her mouth with his kiss.

"Hmm"

Sakura seemed to be in despair or something, her will to resist suddenly diminished to a minimum, and her body offered no resistance whatsoever.

She and Shiraku Yosuke had kissed countless times, so kissing Shiraku Yosuke had almost become an instinct.

With her waist wrapped around his arm, Sakura couldn't help but take the initiative.

After exchanging glances for a while, Sakura was unknowingly carried to the bed by Yosuke Shirakumo.

When Shiraku Yosuke saw that Sakura still had that same empty, bewildered look in her eyes, he knew that what he had just said had had a huge impact on her.

"Luckily, the cameras in the room were never turned off, otherwise, if I had gone to do all that, Sakura might have seen through me."

After glancing at the corner of the room, Shirokumo Yosuke quickly removed his and Sakura's clothes and then pressed himself against them.

------

"Why isn't that guy ready yet?"

Kushina paced anxiously around the hospital, glancing at the entrance to the hospital corridor every now and then, even hoping to see Shirakumo Yosuke from the stairs at any moment.

Uchiha Mikoto, who was sitting to the side, was not worried at first because she had heard from Tsunade that Sasuke would be alright; but now, seeing Kushina's anxious look, she couldn't help but feel anxious as well.

"Kushina, don't worry, Yosuke-kun will have a way."

"But it's been almost three days, Mikoto, I'll go look for it."

Upon hearing this, Mikoto quickly advised, "Kushina, have you forgotten what Lady Tsunade said? It's best not to disturb Yosuke-kun."

"But... let's go take a look anyway."

Kushina was somewhat persuaded, but considering her relationship with Yosuke Shirakumo, it didn't seem like a big deal to come knocking on his door; if Yosuke Shirakumo was really busy, then she would quietly return.

"Mikoto, could you please take a look? I'm going to check on Yosuke Shirakumo's house."

"Kushina"

Before Mikoto could finish speaking, Kushina disappeared in a flash, running towards the Shirakumo family home immediately after leaving the hospital.

When they arrived at the Shirakumo residence, Kushina knocked on the door a few times but received no response. She then recalled that when she was inside Shirakumo Yosuke's body, she often saw him going to the secret medicine research lab.

As a former Jinchuriki of the Nine-Tails, Kushina was very familiar with the paths of the secret medicine base's research lab, and even knew the barriers inside very well; some of these barriers were taught to Yosuke Shirakumo by her.

So they went in without any problems.

In the bedroom of the secret medicine research base, on the messy bed, Sakura Haruno was the first to wake up.

However, she woke up because Shirokumo Yosuke had placed his hand on her body, making it difficult for her to breathe and preventing her from sleeping. So she woke up in a daze.

"yesterday."

When Sakura Haruno saw Yosuke Shirakumo beside her, she quickly remembered what had happened yesterday.

"asshole."

Sakura Haruno, filled with anger, was about to hit and scold Yosuke Shirakumo beside her, but the thought that she could no longer be with Sasuke made her too heartbroken to be angry.

"How could it have turned out like this?"

Sakura couldn't help but cover her face, but she couldn't cry. The image that appeared in her mind was of herself yesterday.

Thinking of this, Sakura Haruno couldn't help but punch Yosuke Shirakumo again, saying, "Damn it, I know you're pretending to be asleep, get up!"

"Ouch, Sakura! Can't you sleep a little longer?"

Seeing that he couldn't keep up the act any longer, Shirokumo Yosuke rubbed his chest and sat up. He had woken up while Sakura was reminiscing, but he was just thinking of a solution.

"How about you take a shower before going to sleep? I really can't sleep when I feel all sticky."

Seeing Bai Yunyang's evasive remarks, Xiaoying angrily raised her hand again. However, this time she lowered it weakly, her head bowed, and she wrapped the blanket around herself, saying helplessly, "What am I going to do now? Maybe I shouldn't have done it in the first place."

"Sakura, let's be together from now on!"

"Be with you?! You womanizing bastard, how many women have you had? Ino, Ms. Kurenai, and... there must be many more like me. Can you leave them and marry me?"

As Sakura Haruno angrily uttered her last words, a strange sense of anticipation inexplicably arose in her heart. If Yosuke Shirakumo could truly dedicate himself to being with her, then perhaps their future together would be different.

"Um, I'm sorry, Sakura, but I'm afraid we can't keep this from each other any longer. I promise you'll have a good life from now on!"

Shirokumo Yosuke scratched his head and said that he had too many women, and it was impossible to cut them all off. Moreover, it was best to keep his relationship with Sakura a secret, otherwise Ino would definitely not be able to accept it.

He was confident he could persuade Ino to accept other people, but not confident he could persuade her to accept Sakura Haruno.

"You're such a bastard, I should have seen through you sooner!"

Sakura Haruno, feeling both ashamed and angry, finished speaking, then pulled away from Yosuke Shirakumo, grabbed her clothes, and put them on.

As for the marks and other things on her body, Sakura didn't care. She could take a shower when she got home. She didn't want to see Shiraku Yosuke again. She walked with a slight limp, but that didn't deter her from going home.

However, just as Sakura was about to leave, there was a sudden knocking sound on the door of the lounge.

"Yosuke, are you in there?"

Kushina's voice came from outside, which made Sakura panic and rush back into the room. At the same time, she hurriedly led Shirokumo Yosuke off the bed and gestured for him to deal with the people outside.
