In Konoha, they wiped out the Sarutobi clan at the start.

Chapter 120 Jockey Miezu Yuhi Kurenai

Once the procedures for Team 8 to participate in the Chunin Exams are completed.

It was getting dark.

As usual, after returning home, Kurenai took a shower and began her daily evening drink, accompanied by her favorite wasabi octopus.

Suddenly, a hand silently snatched her wine glass.

"Why are you drinking again tonight? Hangovers are no good habit." A pleasant, gentle voice rang in Yuhi Kurenai's ear.

Kurenai was startled, but after seeing who it was, a look of joy immediately appeared on her face.

His simple gray outfit gave him a cool vibe. He had classic black, tousled hair. Dark pupils, fair skin, a handsome face, and was about 1.8 meters tall with an extremely well-proportioned and slender figure.

Five years have passed, and Qianye has completely grown up. He is no longer the boy who only knew how to flirt.

She exudes an ethereal quality, giving off a mature and composed vibe.

Kurenai recognized him at a glance as the boy she had been longing for, and exclaimed, "Chiya!"

"Kurenai, it's been a long time." Chiya nodded slightly, swirled his wine glass, and was about to drink when Kurenai held a kunai to his neck.

Qianye continued to swirl his wine glass, a self-deprecating smile on his face. "How heartless. We were master and disciple after all, and we haven't seen each other for five years. I didn't expect you to turn on me with swords the moment you arrived."

Kurenai's shoulders trembled slightly, a look of pain appearing in her eyes. She said coldly, "You should already be a rogue ninja, right?"

Upon hearing this, Qianye immediately put on a stern face and said seriously, "Hong, have you changed?"

"How have I changed?" Kurenai Yuhi was taken aback, and a hint of panic flashed across her eyes, which were filled with pain.

Although her relationship with Qianye only became more ambiguous before Qianye left, it was still very much like a master-disciple relationship.

But the passage of time did not diminish this feeling; instead, it made Kurenai Yuhi think about many things.

To her surprise, she found that she seemed to have completely fallen in love with this exceptionally talented young man.

Sometimes, she even had the thought that, in order not to put him in a difficult position, she could try to accept the existence of Uchiha Izumi.

This would have been absolutely impossible in the past.

Later, when he learned from Kakashi that Chiya had sacrificed himself and had been classified as an S-rank rogue ninja due to suspicion of murdering the Sarutobi and Shimura clans, he was deeply saddened.

She was once disheartened, feeling as if the sky had fallen, and even considered giving up her identity as a ninja.

However, she also knew that Konoha had just lost the Uchiha, Sarutobi, and Shimura clans and was in dire need of manpower, so it was unlikely that they would approve her resignation as a Jonin at this critical juncture.

Therefore, she opted for a less desirable option and joined the medical department, choosing to stay away from the conflicts among ninjas, hoping that time would heal the indelible sorrow in her heart.

It wasn't until Hinata, Kiba, Shino, and the others graduated that she was forced to return to the front lines under the guise of the Third Hokage.

Could it be that this young man has already seen through the changes in his own heart?

"You've become even more beautiful," Qianye said earnestly.

"You're so frivolous." Yuhi Kurenai's pretty face flushed red instantly. She had completely forgotten that the young man in front of her possessed a flirtatious skill.

"I'm serious. You might not realize it yourself, since you see yourself in the mirror as soon as you wake up in the morning. But it's different for me. I haven't seen you for almost five years, so I can tell," Qianye said firmly, his expression unchanged.

"Really?" Yuhi blushed bright red, even her neck was tinged with pink, and she was overjoyed by Chiya's words.

But he quickly realized what he was doing, cleared his throat, and said seriously, "You haven't answered my question yet."

"Kakashi must have told you. That guy's such a busybody." Chiya's smile faded, but he didn't deny it. "So, what do you plan to do? Are you going to expel the traitor as a Konoha Jonin, or clean house as a teacher?"

"I," Kurenai Yuhi stammered, lowering her head with a forlorn expression, her eyes dimming slightly.

Just then, a system notification sounded in Qianye's mind.

[Congratulations, host, for triggering a system option.]

【1. Seize the kunai, force yourself onto the crossbow, reward: 10 Senzu Beans】

[2. Persuade Kurenai Yuhi, reward with Armament Haki] (ps: The reward for Tsunade has been changed.)

[3. Doing nothing, turning around and running away, worse than an animal, reward: 999999 Viagra]

Please select.

Hearing the system notifications in his mind, Qianye glanced at the kunai on his neck, a glint of light flashing in his dark eyes, and an idea immediately formed in his mind.

She raised her face, took a step forward, bringing the kunai closer to her neck, and tried to hold back her tears.

The kunai was almost pressed against Chiya's neck when Kurenai Yuhi's melodious voice rang out again, her tone much gentler, "Chiya, you can tell me what's troubling you. No matter what happened, your teacher will face it with you, but you shouldn't have done something as reckless as deserting the village."

Chiya slowly lowered her head, looking directly at Kurenai. As her chakra gathered, Kurenai saw a tear roll down Chiya's right cheek: "No, you shouldn't have done this. I should die too."

Seeing Chiyo, who was usually calm and shameless when flirting with women, shed tears, Kurenai Yuhi became increasingly flustered, her shoulders trembling slightly.

Sensing the change in Kurenai's emotions, Chiya thought to himself that something was going to happen. He tried hard to recall Stephen Chow's expression in "A Chinese Odyssey" and said some touching words: "There was once a sincere love placed in front of me, but I did not cherish it. When I lost it, I realized that I regretted it too late. There is nothing more painful in the world than this."

As soon as she finished speaking, Kurenai's hand, which was holding the kunai, began to tremble slightly, and her breathing became somewhat rapid. A glimmer of tears appeared in her dark red eyes.

Qianye was overjoyed and, suppressing his shame, uttered the words that Supreme Treasure had said to Fairy Zixia in the original Journey to the West.

"Slit my throat with your kunai! Don't hesitate any longer! If God could give me another chance, I would say three words to that girl: I love you. If I had to put a time limit on this love, I hope it would be ten thousand years!"

After saying that, Qianye slowly closed his eyes.

Naruto is ultimately a world lacking in both spiritual and material resources.

As soon as Chiya's lewd words reached her ears, Kurenai Yuhi could no longer hold onto the kunai in her hand. With a thud, it fell onto the wooden floor, leaving a hole in the floor, but she was already unaware of it.

Kurenai slowly closed her beautiful eyes, tilted her head slightly, and tried her best not to let the tears fall into her eyes.

After a long while, she finally came to her senses, her breathing slightly rapid as she looked at Qianye, her beautiful eyes filled with deep affection and a faint glimmer of tears. "Then why did you leave the village? Why did you become a rogue ninja?"
