I don't believe in the will of fire

"Where is this?"

What was visible to the naked eye was a bright log cabin. He was lying on the bed, wrapped in bandages and unable to move. The bonfire burning next to him gave him some warmth.

"Wait...this pain."

He suddenly reacted.

"I'm not dead, but I clearly remember..."

The pain of being pierced through his chest was still vivid in his mind. Just when he was confused, a familiar voice suddenly came to his ears.

"You're awake."

He turned around and saw a familiar and surprising person.

"It was you, Shenyue, could it be that you saved me...but..."

"Who else could be there besides me?"

Shenyue came to him with a bowl of rice porridge.

"Drink him first. You have been in a coma for a week. Although I use chakra to help you maintain your life, you can't do it without eating something."

After feeding the rope tree and drinking it, Shenyue looked thoughtfully at the mummified rope tree and said, "You are very lucky. The knife is only the thickness of your little finger from your heart."

, plus I happened to get some skills in using Yang attribute chakra recently, and I used chakra to maintain your life, otherwise you would have met your grandfather's Hokage by now. I can only say that fate is really magical... It's just that

....”

At this point, Shenyue did not continue, but the compassion in her eyes made Shengshu, who was originally a little happy because he was lucky enough to survive, become uneasy.

"What's wrong, Shenyue? Is it my body!!!"

"Don't you notice? Your left hand?"

"!!!"

Only then did Naoshu realize in horror that he couldn't feel the existence of his left hand, and what's more, the left side of his body?

"This...my left hand..."

"There's no need to look for it. Your left hand and the entire arm are gone, and a large area of ​​the left side of your body has been burned. I'm not that proficient in medical ninjutsu. It would be great if I could save your life."

Naoki's pupils glazed over for an instant. As a ninja, what does it mean to have no arms? He naturally understood that without hands, he could not form seals, and without forming seals, he could not release ninjutsu. This meant that he had lost the qualification to become a ninja. He

I will never become Hokage.

"Danzo!!!"

This was the first time that he felt endless anger and resentment from the bottom of his heart.

It was also the first time that the desire to kill Danzo appeared.

But what Shenyue said next made him stunned.

"Don't get me wrong, Danzo didn't do this, it was me..."

I only heard Shenyue explain: "When I found you, although your breathing had stopped, you still had a weak heartbeat, but Danzo and the others were chasing after you, so I had no time to save you. In addition, because

Because of you, I can't fight them, so I can only use a killing move, but the damage range of this technique is particularly wide, so..."

Shenyue didn't finish speaking, but Shengshu already understood.

He breathed hard, panting heavily, as if processing this information consumed a lot of energy. After a long time, he took a long breath and spoke.

"Thank you for saving me, Shenyue!"

Looking at the dissipated light and despair in Shengshu's eyes, Shenyue also knew his mood at the moment.

"You're welcome, but what exactly is going on? Why did you meet Danzo? And where is Senju Chiba who is responsible for protecting you?"

Shengshu's eyes were dim, and the remaining arm clenched his fist tightly, and said through gritted teeth: "After you left, we evacuated in batches, but on the way to evacuate, a group of people suddenly appeared and attacked us.

My uncle and I were separated because of this. Then, I met an ANBU ninja who said he was sent by the Hokage to protect me and asked me to go in another direction. I didn't feel right at the time. I remembered what you said,

I used my shadow clone to go with him. Unexpectedly, he brought me into the detonating talisman formation in Yuren Village. After I got the news from the clone, I immediately found my clan uncle. Only then did I realize that my clan uncle

I was also deceived, someone pretended to be me and lured my uncle away."

"We just discovered that someone wanted to harm me, but we didn't know who it was, and my uncle didn't trust anyone, so we decided to wait until we reached the Fire Country and then secretly returned to the village. But we didn't expect that we met those people on the way.

Danzo and the others are disguised as rain ninjas, clan uncle, I'm afraid..."

"I see."

After listening to Shengshu's story, Shenyue finally understood the cause and effect of the matter.

"Duanzo is really crazy to kill you."

Hearing Danzo's name, Naoki's fists clenched tighter.

Seeing this, Shenyue was unwilling to provoke him.

"You should have a good rest first. Your injuries are very serious. Even with my help, it will still take some time to fully recover. By the way, do you want me to inform your sister? With her medical ninjutsu, she should be able to

Make you recover faster?"

The word "sister" made Naoshu's eyes shine with a faint light, but it quickly dissipated.

If Danzo knew that he was still alive, I'm afraid my sister would also...

Thinking of this, he finally came to his senses.

"No need, the Thousand-Hand Rope Tree is dead."

"I see."

————————

"Lord Shenyue, how is that big brother Shengshu?"

As soon as Shenyue left the inner room, the three people sitting neatly outside came up to her and asked with concern.

"Although the person has woken up, his condition is not very good."

"Then do you want me to go and treat him?" Mai asked with concern.

"No need, your little chakra is of no use to him, as long as I'm here, it's fine. Besides, the more serious damage he is suffering now is from psychological trauma."

The three of them fell silent for a moment, and they also knew from Shenyue's words that this brother, who was about the same age as Lord Shenyue, was Lord Shenyue's companion.

When Shengshu was first brought here, the terrifying look on his body was still fresh in the memory of all three of them.

This made the three of them feel uncomfortable psychologically, especially after knowing that the person who caused all this was actually a high-ranking person in the same village.

Yahiko asked obviously incomprehensibly: "Master Shenyue, why? Why should they attack the ninjas of their own village when they are obviously ninjas from the same village?"

"Because of fear." Shenyue's answer was simple.

"The Senju clan has already produced two Hokages. The current high-level officials of Konoha will never allow another Kage from the Senju clan to appear. Then, Konoha will become the Konoha of the Senju clan. In addition,

The power of the first generation is so terrifying, and as the only male of the first generation, they are also afraid of the appearance of someone with the same power as the first generation."

"Is the First Hokage really that powerful?" Yahiko asked in confusion.

"Of course, let's put it this way, from the birth of ninjas to the present, there are only two people who can truly bring hope for peace to this world. One is the first Hokage Senju Hashirama, and the other is Uchiha Madara, the former leader of the Uchiha clan.

Any one of them has the power to pacify the entire ninja world. If two people join forces, they can definitely unify the ninja world. By then, there will be no barriers between villages, countries, and clans. There will be only

Only in that way can it be possible to bring about real peace. Unfortunately, they ended up going their own separate ways."
