Chapter 292 Destiny
Chapter 292 Destiny
"We do not have the power to decide the life and death of others."
Someone once told me this.
It was Sasuke. When he foolishly asked why the other party wanted to become an Avenger, Sasuke inexplicably threw this sentence to him.
"He said so." Sasuke quickened his pace and said, "The one with the white eyes."
It's not meant for him, but for his brother Uchiha Itachi.
Itachi, at first glance, was a man with a lot of murderous sins, but because of Hyuga Neji's casual words, he just ignored everyone.
My brother is that greedy guy who wants everything.
But there is no way around it, because he is just too strong. He is so strong that even if he wants both, it is just a simple matter of moving his fingers.
There are definitely not a minority of people in the village who dislike Uchiha Itachi, but you rarely hear any negative comments about him in the village.
The fact that he is not at the center of public opinion is one thing, and the fact that few people dare to say anything about him is also an indispensable part.
So he got everything - everything Uchiha Itachi wanted.
The little fox didn't seem to fully understand at that time. He just squinted his eyes and stared at Sasuke. The man retorted, "The last one." From then on, the war was about to break out.
In Naruto's memory, Sasuke was always the first to run away. But even if he ran away, he left enough reasons for himself to catch up. Unlike everyone else he had met, even though he was the last one in the class and always needed Sasuke's help, he was also treated as a complete human being by such a person.
This had never happened before I met Sasuke.
They are similar but not the same, they are silent but not speechless.
What it brings is the ability to find the faith of a lifetime.
Those memories, those so-called beautiful past, nourished him and also tortured him.
"No one deserves to die."
Haruno Sakura said something against her will: "Even if it's the leader of the Hiashi clan, there are people who hope he can survive."
"We do not have the power to decide the life and death of others."
There is only one quarter of the cake left, and the story is about to come to an end. But if nothing unexpected happens, the Chief Ninja of Unexpectedness will bring a surprise.
"Did Sasuke tell you that?"
Uzumaki Naruto's nerves were tense, the one with the white eyes was no longer in the village, and the Uchiha brother didn't look like the type who would come into contact with Haruno Sakura.
"Huh?" Haruno Sakura was stunned and recalled what she had just said.
What did Sasuke say?
Sasuke-kun...
Just hearing Sasuke's name, this heart will start to twitch. All the things that have happened and have not happened will come like a tide, stimulating the owner's tear glands and nerves.
The scene that had been sealed for three years flashed again and again, and finally stopped in the mist, with the young man's back gradually walking away.
Will we ever meet again? What pushed Uchiha Sasuke to his death?
She shook her head slightly, probably figuring out what Uzumaki Naruto was talking about. But at the same time, she also realized that she might not be as strong as she thought.
"That's what Lady Tsunade said."
"It was Lady Tsunade who collected the body of the Hiashi clan leader."
The corpse was no longer in its original human form. The death of Hyuga Hiashi was much more horrific than that of Sarutobi Hiruzen.
The man's notice was a scroll, mixed in with the gifts sent by the branch family for the elder's birthday banquet. The lavender silk cloth was embroidered with gold edges, which was completely different from the group of scrolls in the cracks and corners that exuded a sense of poverty. You could tell its luxury at a glance.
The cloth was not fashionable at the time. Apart from the smell of money on the surface, it also had a hint of age and was old.
On the day the notice was delivered, Hinata Hiashi died. He died suddenly before he could read the contents of the notice written in the scroll.
It was said that he died suddenly, but when the elders came to urge him, Hyuga Hiashi had lost his human color. His purple skin was covered with a layer of golden oil, which was somewhat similar to the scroll.
"It's like meeting you in person..."
The handwriting in the scroll was exactly the same as that on the leaves, which made Tsunade feel somewhat relieved.
Rizu's muscles began to dissolve within the first hour, like a puddle of mud, sandwiched between the skeleton and the skin. The slightest movement would cause ripples like a swamp.
The tip of Haruno Sakura's nose seemed to still remember the smell of that day. The stench of the corpse hit Haruno Sakura in the face, almost knocking the little girl unconscious. The rotten eggs stored in the cellar for three hundred years would probably not be half as bad as the stench of that day. It was a double blow to the sense of sight and smell - especially the layer of oil floating on the corpse, which made Haruno Sakura unable to eat for several days.
Seeing the words is like meeting you, seeing the words is death.
The Iai Slash between samurai is no more than this.
"Hmm?" Uzumaki Naruto saw that Haruno Sakura didn't continue talking. The air was eerily quiet. Perhaps it was time for dinner, and several noisy children came into the family restaurant one after another. But their noise never reached this place, as if a barrier had been opened, and it became a corner that was eerily quiet.
"Sakura?"
Naruto and Tsunade's relationship is not close, but with the addition of Jiraiya, we have more or less heard some of the unpleasantness between him and the leader of the Hiashi clan.
I guess this is the reason why Sakura mentioned Tsunade at this time.
“Ah…Ah!”
That quarter of the cake was left over in the end.
Rabbits flew through the sky, bursting with flesh and blood, staining the clear glass red.
The flesh was torn into pieces and blood was splattered everywhere, but the spine in the middle was intact.
"Wow! Mom!" The child was frightened by the collision and started crying, grabbing his mother's clothes.
It was a small family restaurant, and all attention was focused on this quiet corner, just because the rabbit happened to hit the glass next to Naruto.
The red blood had become somewhat oxidized due to long-term contact with the air, and it was a dark red mass with blurred edges, but it clearly depicted a pattern.
"Who are you..."
This is a question, and the final stroke of the question mark is completed by the rabbit's spine.
The yellow-white spine pierced the glass, with the tip pointing into the restaurant, tilted slightly at an angle.
Uzumaki Naruto recited the bloody words word by word, slowly turned his body, and looked in the direction indicated by the tip of the spine.
The brown tree trunk was hidden in the shadows, with lush green leaves. A tattered swing was tied to the trunk, spinning and swinging, as if there was still some residual heat left.
"It's him!"
"what?"
Haruno Sakura immediately grabbed Uzumaki Naruto's arm and rushed to the Hokage's office: "We must report to Lady Tsunade immediately."
"Naruto." The object of his affection stared at him with his emerald green eyes, his determination not wavering at all, "The maintenance of the site will be left to you."
"The killer has appeared."
The killer called "Judge" by Konoha's high-ranking officials appeared.
First it was Sarutobi Hiruzen, then Hyuga Hiashi, and then another victim who was equally powerful appeared.
The head of the Shemu family is missing.
The jonin secretary general was just attending class peacefully when his body started to explode one by one, starting from his fingers.
...
Except for Danzo Shimura who is still alive, all the eight victims who were sent the notice had a lot of negative information revealed by their competitors or enemies after their death, and for a time they became the laughing stock of Konoha.
People outside the village were laughing, and people inside the village were also laughing.
Only the group of old guys who did bad things together couldn't laugh.
Gradually, the killer became the Judge. First the villagers started talking about it, and then even Tsunade-sama started calling him that. Now, even the task force is called the Judge Team.
As long as this judge is not caught, the hats of Konoha will never laugh.
Danzo had faked a smile - but now he couldn't smile anymore. The Grim Reaper's scythe finally landed firmly on his neck.
What is coming will always come. If one wants to escape the Judge's Book of Life and Death, perhaps only gods can do it.
"But he is not the judge."
Uzumaki Naruto stood in the crowd, his clones standing densely around the glass, but he also collected all the gossip of the surrounding spectators.
As he was thinking about this, a black-haired ninja wearing a jonin vest appeared beside him.
"who are you?"
"Don't be nervous, Naruto-kun." The black-haired ninja smiled as warmly as the spring breeze. He pointed to the back of the crowd and said, "I'm just a pioneer ninja who came to record the scene."
"We don't have the power to decide his life or death."
"They are not gods, and he is not a judge."
"Isn't it?"
