"In the 133rd year of the Fire Country Calendar, in Hakura Town, a Shikotsumyaku ninja from the Kaguya clan went out of control and slaughtered all 3,125 people in the town. Hagoromo Gengetsu encountered him on the way, fought fiercely for half a day, and severely wounded him before killing him."
Yu Yi Xuan Yue remembered that it was a Kaguya ninja who was corrupted by killing intent and whose Shikotsumyaku (Corpse Bone Pulse) was developed to an extremely high degree.
The crazier this group of people are, the more difficult they are to mess with.
Compared to now, back then I was still very naive and it took me a long time, and I even almost lost my life, to kill it.
Is it unwise to provoke such a formidable enemy?
So many people died. There was even a little girl who was crying uncontrollably as she trembled and reached out her little hand, but she collapsed halfway there, unable to stand up again.
How could I possibly tolerate such a situation?
"In the 135th year of the Fire Country calendar, there was a great famine. The lord of Ishikawa Castle refused to open the granaries and distribute food. People outside the city resorted to cannibalism, and it was like hell. Yui Gengetsu was so angry that she killed the lord, opened the granaries and distributed food, saving countless lives."
That year, Yu Yi Xuan Yue clearly understood what those six words in the history books, "a great famine occurred, and people ate each other," truly meant.
What angered him even more was that the singing and dancing continued in the house of the lord of Ishikawa Castle, and large amounts of leftover food were thrown to stray dogs under the "kindness" of his master.
Without wasting words, Yu Yi Xuan Yue also gave the "kind-hearted" city lord to the wild dog, and then things proceeded as recorded in the book.
Of course, this also angered the high and mighty men.
"In the 136th year of the Fire Country calendar, three ninjas who used human organs to practice evil arts were killed."
"In the 137th year of the Fire Kingdom calendar, twelve nobles were killed in a competition to kill humans, using them as prey."
"Year 138 of the Fire Country Calendar"
Listen to Ino recount Hagoromo Gengetsu's life story, one by one.
Sakura's expression went from disbelief to shock, and then to silence, her face displaying a complex mix of emotions.
Yu Yi Xuan Yue herself remained silent for a long time.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 88 The Peace Is Broken
It's clear that Ino really got absorbed in the book that describes Hagoromo Gengetsu's life.
Many things that Yu Yi Xuan Yue herself had almost forgotten, she could remember in her heart and clearly say at this moment.
Unbeknownst to her, the young lady of this mountain clan had become a fan of Yu Yi Xuan Yue, just like her ancestor who wrote the book.
After all, if that ancestor hadn't genuinely cared about everything concerning Yu Yi Xuan Yue, how could he have written this book that records countless major events in Yu Yi Xuan Yue's life, filled with praise in every word?
Yu Yi Xuan Yue was unaware that she once had such a worshipper from a mountain tribe.
To be honest, he felt that the author's praise of him was excessive.
Yu Yi Xuan Yue knew very well that she was not the true hero or sage described in the book.
He greatly admired those great people who, even if they were physically weak, would brave dangers and aspire to change everything for the sake of their ideals.
For me, all my actions along the way have been more of a friendly expression of having a weapon in hand and the intention to kill.
Those acts of swift retribution were done casually based on one's own powerful military strength, rather than the result of deliberately traveling around.
In fact, Yu Yi Gengetsu's philosophy has always been very simple, far less complicated than the five great ninja villages and other forces thought.
When they crossed over from a world without magic, they truly experienced the energy called "chakra" flowing realistically within their bodies for the first time, enabling them to do many things that normal people could not.
His beliefs have been firmly established.
That is to keep moving forward and see what kind of scenery lies at the end of chakra.
Perhaps there is a door there.
A door leading to a higher place.
For Yu Yi Xuan Yue, it would be wonderful if she could find that door, push it open, and see the view from the upper level.
Of course, the beauty of life lies not only in the result, but also in the process.
During this period, it is perfectly normal to occasionally stop and appreciate what you see and modify what you don't like within your capabilities.
This should have been a very simple and pure ideal, but it is always overcomplicated by others.
Conspirators are always concerned with the conspiracies in other people's hearts, as if everyone is as they are in their own.
Yu Yi Xuan Yue shook her head and returned to reality.
At that moment, Ino raised her chin and said to Sakura, "So, Sakura? Do you still think Hagoromo Gengetsu is a big bad guy like Orochimaru?"
"I don't know."
Sakura felt that her values had been severely shaken and her mind was a little confused.
For a girl who is only twelve years old and has very little experience, the world and people should be clearly divided into black and white.
Just like Hagoromo Gengetsu, who put a lot of pressure on Konoha and the ninja world, she should be the kind of villain in her mind.
But after hearing Ino's account of Hagoromo Gengetsu's life, she realized that such a person could not possibly be called a major villain.
So, what kind of person should we view Yu Yi Xuan Yue as?
Sakura felt as if two little people were fighting fiercely in her mind.
Yu Yi Xuan Yue then spoke up: "In the real world, some things and some people are not judged by good or bad. It is normal for great heroes and great saints to fight each other to the death due to conflicts of interest and ideologies."
Sakura still didn't quite understand, but she grasped a point.
"At least, we don't have to worry too much about Sasuke getting into trouble with Hagoromo Gengetsu," Sakura said, her eyes lighting up.
"I'm really impressed with you, Sakura. You actually thought of Sasuke at a time like this."
Ino was speechless. Ignoring her friend, she turned to Dr. "Sousuke" and asked with a triumphant air:
"Dr. Sosuke, you've heard so much. What are your thoughts on Hagoromo Gengetsu now?"
"Me."
Yu Yi Xuan Yue stroked her chin and smiled faintly, saying, "A dangerous individual who threatens the ninja world's order and peace, and is extremely unstable."
Ino: "."
For the first time, she felt that Dr. Sosuke, who should have been a handsome man, had become "hideous".
Say goodbye to the somewhat anxious Ino, and Sakura who keeps mentioning Sasuke.
It was getting late, and Yu Yi Xuan Yue was preparing to go back.
Suddenly, he paused, sensing a familiar fluctuation of secret technique, and turned to look into the distance with a sharp gaze.
"In this world, there are always some self-righteous individuals who believe that the world should operate according to their ideas. Little do they know that the world is the world, and they are merely insignificant ants."
Yu Yixuanyue's eyelids drooped, and she muttered to herself:
"The peace has been shattered once again by yourselves."
Move the time forward a bit.
Leaving the Konoha Memorial Monument, having decided to end the intertwined fate of Hagoromo and Konoha from her own side, Tobitake Dragonfly used her last moments to buy many of her son's favorite dishes and expensive toys that she had always wanted but never had, hoping to leave her son with a beautiful night to remember.
After finishing his shopping, he carried his bags home.
Seeing that the lights were already on inside, I figured my sensible son had probably already cleaned the house. As usual, he sat on the sofa, glancing at the door every now and then, patiently waiting for me to come home.
A smile appeared on Feizhu Qingting's face as she walked to the door, about to take out her key.
Whoosh!Whoosh!
A barely audible whooshing sound rang out.
Flying Bamboo Dragonfly's expression changed.
Before he could react, a group of ninjas dressed in black robes and wearing brightly colored masks surrounded him.
The leader said coldly, "Flying Bamboo Dragonfly Chunin, we need your cooperation on a mission. Now come with us to Root."
Flying Bamboo Dragonfly clenched her fist: "Root? I'm directly under the Hokage, a member of the intelligence analysis team. You have no right to interfere."
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a Root ninja: "This is Lord Danzo's order."
Before Tobi-tsubou could say anything, the Root ninjas attacked and subdued him in an instant.
Finally, Flying Bamboo Dragonfly could only take one last look at its home before being knocked unconscious.
The group quickly disappeared.
All that remained were bags of fresh vegetables and toys lying on the ground, untouched and abandoned.
Soon, the door to their home, which was just a stone's throw away, was opened.
Flying Bamboo Dragonfly's son peeked out, saw that there was no one outside the door, but there were bags of things on the ground, and asked in confusion:
"dad?"
The bamboo dragonfly could not answer.
When he awoke again, he found himself in a dark, secret room.
Directly in front, the man known as "The Darkness of Ninja" sat on a cold chair, his hands resting on the top of his cane, looking at the awakened Flying Bamboo Dragonfly, and coldly asked:
"I'll ask you an answer."
Who is Aosuke's true identity?
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 89 Roots, Self-Immolation
In the dimly lit, secret room, a man named Shizuku Danzo, leaning on his cane, stared at the flying bamboo dragonfly with a chilling glint in his left eye, which was not wrapped in bandages, and asked coldly:
Who is Aosuke's true identity?
As if being stared at by an incredibly terrifying beast, the newly awakened bamboo dragonfly trembled.
Upon recognizing the newcomers, he sensed something was amiss and took a deep breath, barely managing to calm his turbulent emotions. He said, "I don't know what you're talking about. I want to see the Hokage! If there's any questioning to be done, it should be done by the interrogation team."
"Root has the right to arrest and interrogate any ninja who poses a threat to Konoha." These words were spoken by a masked Root ninja hiding beside Shizun Danzo.
He walked up to the flying bamboo dragonfly and said in a flat tone, “We’ve been observing you for a while now. For the past twenty years, you’ve never had any contact with Sosuke. But now, you’ve been going to Konoha Hospital several times without any reason, secretly observing Sosuke, and just an hour ago you even met him at the memorial monument.”
