"Well? You can talk about it and see if I can do it."

Crossing her arms, Mercury Lamp was indeed a little curious, and Lin nodded, then took out a scroll from the ninja tool bag behind her and handed it to her.

"It's very simple. I just need you, a member of the Akatsuki organization, to hand this scroll to Uchiha Izumi in person. Remember, it must be done in person."

After repeating her request, Lin narrowed her eyes slightly: "How about it, can you do it?"

"Although it's not easy, but... it should be no problem."

Shrugging, Mercury Lamp still took the scroll handed over by Lin: "Let me ask, what is recorded in this scroll?"

This question made Lin silent for a few seconds. Just when Mercury Lamp thought she wouldn't answer, the pink-haired girl spoke quietly.

"It's nothing, just..."

"The truth about the genocide of the Uchiha clan was recorded back then, that's all..."

(PS1: Cutting pink into black is the most normal thing, right?)

(PS2: The most enjoyable part of fighting monsters in the game is not backstabbing, but luring another hostile monster over, watching them fight each other, and then calmly finishing the attack~~So I can be sure that Lin is also an expert at the game~)

Say goodbye

To be fair, Lin's ideas are indeed good. As a clone with the Nidaime's thinking ability, her strategies are obviously much more delicate.

She knew exactly what she was going to do and was trying to avoid getting into trouble as much as possible.

There are tricks to framing the blame, such as her insistence that Mercury Lamp hand over the scroll to Uchiha Izumi 'face to face' instead of doing it herself. The purpose is to let the 'members of Akatsuki' expose the truth, so that even if someone pursues the case later, they will only target the Akatsuki organization. After all, Itachi has served in the Akatsuki organization for a long time, and the truth he recorded has been preserved. It is completely reasonable for people in the same organization to hand it over.

Moreover, the reason why she chose Uchiha Izumi instead of Uchiha Sasuke was very simple. Uchiha Izumi's life and death will not have any gains or losses for Konoha, but Uchiha Sasuke is one of the important pillars of the Hinata group. Moreover, this scroll is enough to explain the fundamental reason why Itachi wanted to exterminate the clan. Even this cannot change his behavior of killing his father and mother, but as Itachi's lover during his lifetime, how much hatred did Uchiha Izumi have for him? Deep, then how deep is the relative love.

After discovering that she had misunderstood her lover and even personally participated in the killing of her lover, the heartbroken Izumi Uchiha would definitely seek revenge for her, and she would definitely not take Sasuke with her again. Because Itachi's wish is to protect Sasuke, and Izumi, who avenges him, must also consider his wish and choose to hide it from Sasuke.

There is still a little scent of incense candles in the air of the Uchiha mansion, which was left by the monks who paid homage to the dead, and Itachi's ashes have been hastily buried under the soil in the backyard. This kind of direct burial of the bones of relatives The culture under the mansion is quite ancient, but it is also in line with the thoughts of treating Sasuke and Izumi. Itachi must not be allowed to enter the ancestral hall, but as an object that is inseparable from the relationship between the two, it is impossible to bury him in the wilderness, so he chose the most obscure method.

Uchiha Izumi was sitting alone on her knees in a separate small room in the backyard. She had changed out of her ninja costume and replaced it with a jet black bathrobe. In front of her was a small Muyu, it can be seen that this woman who has completed her revenge has chosen the most escapist approach. That is to use the so-called Buddhist culture to kill one's own heart. If nothing unexpected happens, her subsequent life trajectory should be to accompany the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha until her death.

Tick ​​tock~

At this moment, a strange sound of water drops suddenly reached Uchiha Izumi's ears. Her body trembled subconsciously, and a certain familiar chill fell from the top of her head like a sliding curtain. She instinctively tightened her grip on the wooden fish rod in her hand.

"There's no need to be so alert. I'm just being asked to deliver a message to you this time."

The figure of the mercury lamp slowly fell from the top of the Buddhist hall. Combined with the white hair flowing behind her head and the black dress on her body, she looked like an ice girl who came to the door in the middle of the night. And because of the ice wings emanating from her back It's so cold that the surrounding air is naturally condensing into water droplets and falling down, which is how the scalp-numbing sound of water droplets comes from.

"At the devil's hour, evil spirits come to your door, and that is indeed the case."

Uchiha Izumi took a deep breath. For her, the mercury lamp was undoubtedly a nightmare that she couldn't get rid of. Since her birth, this winged demon has been chasing her. When she thought she had When she was able to get rid of the other party's pursuit, she desperately realized that the other party seemed to have set up some kind of compulsory control method in her body. Even if she was deliberately let go by the other party this time, she already knew that it was just because the other party was confident enough to catch her again.

"Pfft hahahaha~! Evil ghosts are not as beautiful as me. Come on, honey, these so-called clay sculptures have no ability to do anything. Because the so-called reality only exists in human records."

Taking out the scroll entrusted by Lin, Mercury Lamp dropped it directly. The scroll that fell to the ground rolled along with its inertia to Quan's feet. This action made the latter straighten up subconsciously.

"Let's take a look. I think it should be something very interesting. Then, I'll stay soon and you can do as you please."

Just like a demon existing in the mirror world, before the mercury lamp's words completely disappeared, her figure had already retreated into the ice mirror that appeared behind her, and then even the ice mirror turned into a burst of mist and disappeared without a trace. , only the remaining cold air proved that the other party had indeed been here.

Tens of seconds after the mercury lamp left, Quancai knelt down as if she was exhausted. She couldn't deny her fear of this villain. After seeing the scroll at hand, she hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to do it. He reached out and picked it up.

A moment later, a heartbreaking female scream suddenly broke the silence of the night.

————————

Tsunade sat up from the bed with a groan. Cold sweat covered her smooth forehead. Her rapid breathing and frightened eyes showed that she had just woken up from a nightmare.

"Tsunade-sama?"

Shizune's voice came from the compartment outside. As the lights turned on, Shizune, who was wearing a pajamas, looked at Tsunade on the bed in surprise. Obviously, this was the first time that the other party had returned to Konoha after returning to Konoha. Awakened by a nightmare.

"Shizune, I had a very bad dream... The teacher was standing in front of me covered in blood. He seemed to be confessing something, but he couldn't say anything..."

Pressing her temples, Tsunade murmured tiredly. As a disciple of the Third Generation, she undoubtedly had respect for the former, and because she had experienced the hardships of being a Hokage over the years, she also understood why the other party rejected her decision at that time. There was a proposal to increase the number of medical ninjas, so the resentment against him has completely disappeared, leaving only the regret of not being able to see him for the last time.

And this deceased teacher appears in his nightmare in a penitent manner. This warning sign is definitely not trivial. As a kind person but with a clear distinction between public and private matters, the Sandaime will never repent for something he thinks is right. That can only mean that he did something back then that he also thought was wrong but could not stop it. , so much so that I want to remind myself now.

"Tsunade-sama, are you too tired recently? Or do you want to take a little rest tomorrow to relax?"

As her deputy and disciple, Shizune naturally cannot make any guesses about Tsunade's teacher, her master. However, this world is different from reality, because chakra is also part of the nature of the soul, so dreams and the like in this world are quite trustworthy.

"No... Shizune, go get the confidential files from previous years! I want to investigate them all!"

Shaking her head, Tsunade jumped out of bed. She was no longer half asleep now, and this order undoubtedly surprised Shizune: "But... when do you want the confidential file?"

"Three years ago, no...all the confidential files from thirteen years ago! Get them all!"

——————————

Behavior will produce results, whether intentional or unintentional, and will produce corresponding development. This is the trajectory of the world.

And some things cannot be escaped after all.

Jiraiya rarely chose to go through the main entrance to the Hokage Building. What he has been busy with these days is to send Naruto to Mt. Myoboku to formally learn the Sage Mode. Although the latter was not very adaptable, he finally started to get started smoothly. , so Jiraiya no longer has to worry about the other party.

So, now he needs to deal with another thing that has been backlogged for a long time.

"Ah~! Sorry, please give way~!"

Shizune, who was holding a pile of documents, rushed over in panic from the nearby corridor, which made Jiraiya quickly step aside to make way for him. As the other party walked into the Hokage's office, even Jiraiya was subconsciously stunned. For a moment.

Tsunade actually sat in the Hokage chair with an upright posture, and even wore a pair of glasses for reading documents on her face. She was quickly looking through the mountains of files on the table, as if she was actively working on it. Work attitude.

"Oh~ What's going on today? It's just eight o'clock now, right? Why are you working so actively?"

Looking at Tsunade's behavior, Jiraiya subconsciously felt a little incredible. You must know that this old friend's attitude in handling government affairs is just like an elementary school student handling summer homework. It is impossible to handle it without accumulating it until the last few days of school. And Today, as soon as he arrived, he found that the other party was handling government affairs in the morning. This was basically one of the wonders that Jiraiya had seen over the years.

"Jiraiya?! Just tell me what you have to say. As you can see, I can't free my hands now."

Looking up at Jiraiya, Tsunade lowered her head again and looked through the file in her hand, and the more she looked at it, the tighter her brows became. As a ninja institution, although Konoha Village can be regarded as the mildest among the five ninja villages, the dark secrets that need to be recorded are equally unambiguous. There are many ninjas like Mizuki who try to defect because they are dissatisfied with their status. But these people are not as lucky as Mizuki. After they are erased, they naturally have to be archived to deal with them. The surrounding environment and companions were checked and recorded in order to deal with similar situations that may occur next time.

"Oh...no, I mean...wanna get a drink?"

Seeing Tsunade's behavior, Jiraiya hesitated for a moment, but still touched his head and asked this sentence, which made Tsunade raise her head angrily: "Hey, Jiraiya, you didn't mean to tease me. Mine, right? I’m really doing something important right now, so even if it’s your treat, wait until next time.”

"Ha...really? That's right. It can't affect your rare work enthusiasm..."

Sighing in his heart, Jiraiya still acquiesced to Tsunade's attitude, which made Tsunade frown: "What happened? I just dreamed about the teacher last night, why are you so mysterious today?" "

"Ah~ No, it's nothing~! Don't worry, I'm a real man! Rather than inviting you to drink now, I'd rather do this after everything is settled."
