Naruto: First Love

Chapter 349 Mission
'I like you and you like me, so let's be together.'

Xinzi stared blankly at the string of iron jade in her hand, facing the cherry blossoms, looking at Itachi who had his back to her and was facing the moonlight. She felt sweet in her heart and the corners of her mouth were getting wider and wider.

"Itachi, if possible, you don't have to hide anything from me."

Koko leaned on Itachi's back, hung the iron jade around Itachi's neck, and looked up at the sky.

Itachi stiffened slightly, knowing what Kokoro was talking about, but he was still hesitant.

"After the Chunin Exam, things probably won't be peaceful. You have to protect yourself."

Xinzi smiled and said, "I am an Anbu ninja, don't worry. But you, the clan leader might want to use you even more."

Itachi didn't object.

He knew very well what kind of person his father was.

Isn't it obvious that Shisui keeps using the people around him for the sake of the Uchiha clan? He can think that Shisui's present is his future.

"Shisui will be on a mission soon. Stay away from him. The clan will be keeping an eye on him."

Koko pulled her gaze away from Sakura and sighed, "Brother Shisui, are you bound by your clan?"

"Shisui is an excellent ninja. Like him, I may have to sacrifice something for the sake of peace." Itachi said uncertainly.

In fact, before this, he even knew that for the sake of peace, some people and things could be sacrificed. Would this include the Anbu ninjas?
"I know, Anbu, isn't that what it does?" Xinzi replied casually.

She is an Anbu ninja, and this is how the Anbu have always taught her.

The ninjas in the Anbu are not ninjas, but tools.

Although she never considered herself a tool, she was still clear about the attitude of the Anbu after all this time. She would know some things that she should know, or should not know, through what she saw and heard. If she knew, there would always be some influence.

She even thought that if she had not met Fengjian Yoyuki, perhaps she would have become a tool of Konoha like other Anbu members, and a sword in the hands of the Hokage. Such swords were everywhere in the Anbu.

Rather than saying it is disgust, it is better to say that one does not want to accept it and wants to resist.

Both of her parents are ninjas. She knows the fate of ninjas, but she doesn't want to accept it.

The Uchiha clan is a cursed clan from birth. While they are powerful, they can also cause harm to themselves.

If there was anything that could stop it, she hoped to change her own fate, just like Itachi wanted to use his power to achieve peace.

By the way, she and Itachi really look alike.

If Itachi didn't want to tell her about the clan, it would be useless even if she knew a little. It would be better for her to pretend she didn't know and do her own thing.

He wants to use his power to stop the war and achieve peace, so she should use her own power to stop fate and live?
There was a gleam in Itachi's eyes. What did Kokoro mean by that?
Is he talking about himself? But as far as he knows, Xinzi is not a person who likes to accept her fate. She has never liked the Anbu and has never claimed to be a member of the Anbu. Now he is saying this, is he talking about her?

Just as Itachi was about to speak, a dark shadow suddenly appeared. The two of them turned around vigilantly and looked at the person who came.

The white broom head, wearing a fox mask, an Anbu vest, and an Anbu symbol on his right arm, looks cold and seductive in the moonlight.

"There's a mission."

Kakashi glanced at Itachi and Kokoro before looking away calmly.

Then, he turned around and left.

Xinzi frowned. What the hell, it was so hard to have a Sakura Festival, and finally have a chance to have fun with Itachi, but Kakashi interrupted it. Kakashi, this old bachelor! He deserves to be a bachelor forever.

He patted his butt and stood up.

Itachi stood up at the same time, looked at Kakashi, hugged Kokoro in his arms, and left quickly.

Kakashi's eyes shrank slightly under the mask.

Uchiha... Itachi.

Xinzi was startled and hugged Itachi's neck, but did not say anything in rebuttal. She stayed in Itachi's arms, watching the cherry blossoms and the moonlight getting farther and farther away.

After sending Koko back to the apartment, Itachi left.

Xinzi quickly changed his clothes, put on his mask, and set off.

Kakashi glanced at Xinzi, and then began to assign tasks, "A ninja took the information out and was suspected of treason. The task is to bring him back alive."

Although they are good at killing people, it is still a bit difficult for the Anbu ninjas to capture people.

The Hokage didn't know why, but he wanted this person alive and wanted the information back in his hands.

It wasn't a very difficult task, so Kakashi gave them instructions and left.

In other words, although this mission was ordered by Kakashi, the ones in charge were still their C-level Anbu members.

The man was stopped and killed, but the information fell into the hands of a senior ninja of Konoha.

The order their group received was to escort the ninja back secretly and not to show up.

But in the end, they encountered another ANBU team.

No, to be precise, it should be Danzo's root.

There was no time to react at all, and Gen began to hunt down the ninja, just because the ninja had information and he was suspected of treason.

Members of several groups were hesitant, not knowing whether they should help or not.

"Help!" Xinzi looked at the ninja and finally made up his mind.

"But they are Danzo's roots. We cannot move out without orders." Another ninja hesitated.

Xiyan stood up and said, "Let's do it."

Xinzi nodded, not caring about what the other two ninjas thought, and just said, "Shouldn't the Hokage decide whether to live or die?"

The other two finally had no choice but to step forward to rescue the ninja.

The members of Root are much better than the ordinary ANBU members.

Three members, one of whom was a female ninja, attacked ruthlessly. Xi Yan and another ninja code-named "Yang" surrounded her.

Sato went to rescue them, while Koko stopped the other two.

A big guy holding a big sword, he looks like a powerful ninja.

The other one seems to be a sentient ninja.

The attacks of the two were too fierce. Xinzi frowned and directly used the instant body technique.

"Uchiha Shisui!"

"The art of instantaneous body!"

They both shouted.

Apparently, they recognized Xinzi's moves.

Last time, they were at a disadvantage and suppressed by this move.

"It's solid, but it has no mass..."

"Is she Uchiha Shisui's disciple?"

Both of them were thinking this.

Then they began to feel fortunate that after the last time, Uchiha Shisui's reputation began to spread, and they also practiced the Flickering Technique well.

As a result, the heart was suppressed.
