Ninja World

"ah?"

"profound...."

Uchiha Tatsu scratched his hair, hesitating a little.

Nowadays, he rarely hesitates.

Because with the improvement of his strength, many things no longer cause him many worries, but the characteristics of Uchiha Tatsu's character have not disappeared, but have been hidden.

When something like this happens, you will fall back into your old habits.

indecisive.

Just having a meal is no big deal.

Especially in an open and equal society, both boys and girls have their own independent space, instead of being firmly locked in a bunch of rules and regulations.

Although there are some.

But it’s also relatively much less.

Eating is a normal way of communicating, not to mention that we are teammates.

He himself also sneaked into an izakaya back then...

etc.

Uchiha Tatsu suddenly found that he seemed to have entered a certain character.

Startled for a moment.

Seeing Uchiha Tatsu's hesitation, the girl's clear eyes dimmed a little.

Does she really just need someone to go to dinner with?

Sometimes Uchiha Haru's thoughts are elusive, she may just want an attitude.

Such as concern, or even anger.

But the hesitation in Uchiha Chen's eyes was really what she didn't want to see the least, which showed that he was not pretending to be herself.

Disappointed and a little sad.

He lowered his head and straightened his hair on his forehead, saying nothing.

It was just a short conversation, but it had a lot of thoughtful meaning.

There was only a slight silence, but it seemed extremely long.

The room fell silent.

"OK."

Then I heard the young man's answer.

The tone paused.

"I will accompany you that day."

Purse your lips lightly and smile.

Uchiha Haru was startled for a moment, then slowly raised her head to look at Uchiha Chen, and moved her hair away from her forehead.

I saw the boy's most attractive eyes, like stars.

No more hesitation.

He does not have that strong desire to control, but he is very selfish.

"good."

Uchiha Haru also smiled sweetly and slightly curled her eyes.

...

On the distant desert.

The wind was strong and the sand and gravel were flying towards my face, causing some pain on my cut cheeks.

A dark-haired man wearing a snow-white royal robe frowned slightly.

"what happened..."

It seems that he is asking himself.

A somewhat cold and gloomy face was as heavy as water.

The strong wind like a knife swept across the golden desert.

Swirling up dust.

A long howl of wolves was heard in the distance, and the overwhelming wolf pack ran into the distance without even looking in the direction of the man.

Under these eyes.

Run away with tail between legs.

Life instinct’s prediction of danger.

far away.

A tall sand dune was dozens of meters tall, and a thin young man was climbing it with his bare hands.

His slender white fingers were inserted into the gravel filled with tiny gravels, and then he exerted slight pressure.

Soon the smooth palms were covered with scars.

The strong wind blew the young man's short red hair.

Shake violently.

A pair of beautiful eyes filled with emotionless indifference.

Desert, sunset, everything is lonely.

The crimson glow covered the endless desert.

The man in the god's robe moved his eyes slightly and fell on the young man who was climbing the hill in the distance.

His expression moved slightly.

The royal robes rustled in the wind.

The dust and sand underfoot are also changing, slowly turning like a whirlpool.

The particles were clearly surrounding his body.

Like an invisible whirlpool of wind.

"scorpion?"

If he doesn't know now that he has been deceived, then he doesn't deserve to wear this outfit and get the title of 'Shadow'.

But for him... so what if he was cheated?

He is very conceited, which is the confidence and courage that a strong man who bears the name of "Shadow" should have.

He didn't think anyone in this ninja world could hurt him except for a few other 'shadows'.

Because he is not just the Third Kazekage.

Still the strongest Kazekage in history.

He has enough confidence to stand here and wait quietly for his opponent to see what he wants to do.

Let's see how much it can do.

I just didn't expect that the other party would be this person who looked a little too young.

It's like a child who hasn't grown up.

He recognized the red-haired young man.

Even familiar.

He is the one who carries the name of Sunagakure Ninja Village's 'genius puppet master'... Scorpion.

"It's you?"

Red hair flutters.

The young man finally climbed to the top of the sand dune.

The white palms that looked like the hands of a musician were now dripping with blood.

The slender five fingers seemed to be able to play a perfect piece of music in the air, but at this moment, they were cut with wounds.

Blood dripped down the fingertips into the gravel and disappeared in an instant.

Severe pain came from the back of his hand, but the red-haired young man's face remained indifferent, as if he didn't feel it at all.

He deliberately let go of his chakra protection and just climbed to the top of the sand dune on foot and by hand crawling.

No one knows what the meaning of his doing this is, just as some people nowadays have confused the definition of whether he is a genius or a madman.

When the Third Kazekage's eyes fell on Xie's bloody hands, he narrowed his eyes slightly.

The red-haired young man also stared at his hands, showing strong disappointment.

Then he seemed to have thought of something, and raised his head, looking at the third generation Kazekage on the dune opposite with strong excitement.

It's like looking at the most perfect piece of art.

Up and down.

Every bone, every inch of muscle.

Then the corners of his mouth slowly opened into a smile.

"You are very conceited..."

"uncle..."

His voice tried hard to be calm, but the slightly trembling ending still exposed the madness in his heart.

There seems to be some impatience...

His name is Scorpion.

He is the most dazzling star among the younger generation of Sunagakure Ninja Village, and is often even linked to the name of the Fourth Kazekage by the villagers.

And his identity is also very extraordinary.

His grandmother is the powerful Chiyo of the Sunagakure Elders.

And his parents were once powerful figures in Sunagakure.

However, in the Second Ninja War, they encountered the "Beheading" team led by Hatake Sakumo, and were raided and directly killed the headquarters.

This also directly led to the defeat of Sunagakure in that battle.

Scorpio's parents also had a good relationship with the Third Kazekage during their lifetime, although now the relationship between Chiyo's mother-in-law and the Kazekage is not harmonious, and there is even some tension between them.

But there is nothing wrong with calling uncle.

It's just that in this current situation...it has a lot more inexplicable meanings.

"conceited?"

The strong wind blew my hair flying.

The voice whispers.

The muscles in the Third Kazekage's cheeks trembled slightly, as if he wanted to laugh wildly.

He is the Kazekage and has mastered the strongest Sand Iron Ninjutsu. He certainly has the pride.

But he didn't laugh in the end, but his eyes were slightly cold, with contempt and pity.

Pity…

"So…"

"What do you want, my dear nephew?"
