Naruto: First Love

Chapter 71 Huo Wu's Determination

Danzo rolled his eyes. He didn't expect Huo Wu to have the courage to resist.

"You have no right to say no in my place. If what you said is true, I will not embarrass you. The responsibility of the Anbu is to protect the villagers of Konoha from harm. I cannot believe that you entered here unintentionally based on your words alone."

"So what Lord Danzo means is that I need someone to testify for me that I came here unintentionally?" Huo Wu keenly discovered the loophole in Danzo's words and was immediately delighted.

Are you trying to fool the devil by saying those high-sounding words?
Who doesn't know what kind of person you are, Danzo? You want to take her away. After all, she is an adult, not a child. She will follow you obediently if you give her a lollipop. What's more, what you gave her was not a lollipop, but a threat.

Danzo was stunned. What he wanted to express was just the first half of the sentence. The second half was just a polite remark. However, he didn't expect Huo Wu to find a loophole and actually asked about it.

But he would not let Huo Wu succeed so easily, and said in a rather smug tone: "No one here can prove who you are, so we will naturally take you back to investigate thoroughly before making a decision!"

Seeing people from both sides rushing up, Huo Wu knew that Danzo really wanted to take her back.

But she didn't understand, at this time, is it necessary to pick on her, a non-ninja? Why did Danzo have to pick on her? Could it be that he knew her identity and wanted to dig out her eyes?
When Huo Wu thought about the fact that Danzo's bandaged right hand was full of Sharingans, she felt a chill on her back and broke out in a cold sweat.

He looked around and saw that they were all Anbu members. He felt a little desperate. Did he really have to go to the Anbu to cooperate with the investigation?
However, when he met a pair of cold golden eyes, his pupils constricted and his heart shuddered.

Who is this person? His eyes look so familiar. Where has she seen him before?

"Let's go!" A member of the Anbu came up, looked at Huo Wu, and ordered coldly.

Huo Wu frowned, retreated to a tree, leaned against it, and had no intention of leaving.

Danzo snorted, "Take her away."

Everyone naturally understands what the "belt" here means. In the eyes of the Anbu members, there is no difference between women and men, and no difference between ninjas and ordinary people.

If you don't obey, we will use extraordinary measures.

The ANBU members' physical skills are usually pretty good.

"Master Danzo, she has already said that she came here by accident. Why do you insist on taking her away?"

A familiar lazy voice sounded from the tree behind Huo Wu. For a moment, Huo Wu felt that Kakashi's voice was like the sound of nature. There was no time when she wanted to hear Kakashi's voice more.

Now Huo Wu is the drowning person, and Kakashi is the wood that gives her hope.

Seeing Kakashi's tall figure standing in front of her, Huo Wu felt relieved. "Kakashi..."

Kakashi didn't look back, but protected her behind him and whispered, "He won't let us go easily. When I tell you to leave later, you should leave in the direction of Sarutobi's house."

Kakashi was wearing a mask and spoke quietly with his mouth not wide open, so Danzo, who was standing further away, naturally didn't notice him talking.

The one or two ANBU members standing nearby did hear it, but they pretended not to hear it. Kakashi had already come out, so they must be acquaintances.

Kakashi clearly knows who he is going to protect. Is this Danzo abusing his power for personal gain and has something to do with Huo Wu?
Although Huo Wu came here, it was not right, but it would not involve the survival of the village, so Danzo had no right to take a villager away for investigation. After all, the investigation of the Anbu would involve a person's memory, and few people were willing to let others know their memories.

The people of Root stood behind Danzo, each of them like wood. They did not speak unless Danzo gave orders.

"Kakashi, who is she? Are you sure she has no ill intentions coming here? Doesn't she want to spy on the secrets of the Anbu? As a ninja, you should know not to go to places you shouldn't go." Danzo's fingers gripping the cane clenched much tighter, and he looked at Kakashi with an unfriendly look.

"Lord Danzo, you also said that, that is the rule of the ninja. Now Huo Wu is not a ninja, she is just an ordinary villager of Konoha. Besides, Lord Sandai knows Huo Wu's character best. What Huo Wu said is right. If you don't believe it, you can go ask Lord Sandai." Kakashi changed his lazy tone and spoke in a serious tone.

Danzo frowned secretly, he didn't expect Huo Wu was no longer a ninja, what was Hiruzen thinking? Aren't there any good seedlings that are well cultivated, why not let Huo Wu become a ninja?

This is not the style of the third generation. Does Huo Wu have other shortcomings? No, that's not right. For those ninjas with shortcomings, the third generation always tried to correct them instead of giving up. It can't be that Huo Wu's shortcomings are so big that the third generation can't correct them, right?
When this thought came to mind, Danzo himself found it hard to believe.

According to the fact that Danzo had known the Third Generation for many years and his understanding of the Third Generation, for the first time, he felt doubtful about the Third Generation's actions.

It is precisely because of this suspicion that I am more interested in Huo Wu.

"Kakashi, I know the Third Hokage's personality better than you do. She was a ninja before, so she naturally understands the rules of ninjas..."

Kakashi raised his hand to interrupt him: "Danzo-sama misunderstood. It was because she did not understand the rules of ninjas, her grades in the ninja school were terrible, and she barely became a Genin that the Third Hokage felt that she was not suitable to be a ninja."

Don't you know the rules of being a ninja?

Everyone present curled their lips. No matter who they were, if they had been to a ninja school, they would know the rules of the ninja.

If you don't follow the ninja rules, it would be a miracle if you can graduate from the ninja school.

Huo Wu thought: It’s not that she doesn’t understand the rules, but she doesn’t want to follow them, okay?

But this is certainly not the time to argue with Kakashi.

She actually thought about why she didn't want to be a ninja but had to become one.

At first, I was curious about ninjas. When I first arrived in Hokage, if I didn’t become a ninja, wouldn’t it be a waste of my trip?
However, after seeing many people being displaced, and recalling the frequent deaths she saw when she was a child drifting outside, and ordinary people being affected by ninjutsu and crying helplessly, she felt that having strength is very important.

On the one hand, he was resistant to the ninja's random killing, but on the other hand, he didn't want to give up on becoming a ninja, which was why he stayed in the ninja school for so long.

The third generation was extremely indulgent towards her and did not force her to exercise her freedom. Like Granny Jianhua, they both treated her as their own granddaughter.

What really made Huo Wu realize that he had to become an outstanding ninja, just like the other members of Team 7, was the trip to the Land of Waves.

They grew up because of the bond between Zabuza and Haku. She returned to the modern era in a dream, but the modern era told her bloody news that she was dead, the third generation was dead, Kakashi died when Pain attacked Konoha, and Asuma was dead...

She even opened her Sharingan to three magatama and recalled her parents in this world.

From that time on, she made up her mind to protect the people she wanted to protect, provided she was strong enough.
