Konoha: I, Uchiha, just want to die

Chapter 120 Xiao’s invitation, he is a partner!

Bead-like raindrops fell,

The gloomy dense forest grows wildly toward the sky, with its branches showing their teeth and claws.

The raindrops broke through the flowing stench of miasma and fell to the ground, splashing water and mercilessly hitting the branches and leaves of the vegetation.

The depths of the woods at the end of the line of sight were hazy, with thick water mist smearing the darkness, as if there was an unknown terror hidden within.

The surrounding atmosphere is both silent and solemn.

Uchiha raised his head and looked at the three people from the Akatsuki organization wearing black and red cloud windbreakers in front of him.

With the hood down, he couldn't see his face clearly, but he could infer it from the color of his hair.

Orange, blue hair, red hair.

These three people are Yahiko, Konan and Nagato, the founders of the Akatsuki organization.

Uchiha Ci's brows immediately frowned deeply.

At this time, why did the Akatsuki Organization, which was still in its early stages of entrepreneurship, find him?
"Zhisui?" He turned his head and looked at Zhisui, his tone questioning.

Shisui just wanted to explain to Uchiha Ci,
At this time,

Yahiko took a step forward, stood in front of Uchiha Ci, and said in a very formal and solemn manner:

"Uchiha Ci,"

"Please don't embarrass Shisui, I want to see you."

However, facing Yahiko who spoke sincerely, Uchiha frowned and his tone was as cold as if he wanted to reject the person thousands of miles away.

"Sorry, I'm just an ordinary chuunin, there's nothing worth seeing."

Yahiko shook his head, with an unyielding look on his face, and took another step forward.
"Do not."

"Uchiha Ci, after hearing about your deeds, I have wanted to see you for a long time."

"You are a true pioneer on the road of peace, a link between a clan and a village, and a noble person who is willing to fight to the death against Kirigakure and evil cults for the sake of foreign civilians."

"I'm inspired by what you're doing, so I'd love to meet you."

His tone was sincere, he put a hand on his chest and said in a Chen voice:
"I want to know your thoughts, clarify your philosophy, and, I want you to hear our beliefs."

At this time, Uchiha Shisui on the side pushed Uchiha Ci's arm and also advised:
"Ci, please, they are just like us, they are like-minded people fighting for peace to eliminate disputes."

Uchiha glanced at Shisui,

After seeing the divine light in Zhisui's eyes, he couldn't help but frown slightly.
This little brother was originally naive, but now in the Land of Rain, he meets the newborn Xiao who is more naive than him and can dream.

It seems that he has been deceived.
"Alas" Uchiha sighed and looked up at Yahiko,

He really didn't want to have anything to do with these three people. He sympathized with the other party's situation of chasing their dreams and ending up in a mess.

However, the one who planned everything behind these three people was Shura, the real ninja who made the entire ninja world fear him.
Uchiha Madara!

And at this moment, the ignorant Nagato, the eyes in his eyes were the product of Black Zetsu hiding behind Uchiha Madara, who had planned for thousands of years and carefully planned them.

These big guys are the ones he can't afford to offend now.

If Akatsuki's tragedy were changed, the plot would really plummet towards the irreversible abyss.

At this thought, Uchiha frowned and stated to Yahiko coldly:

"I don't know where you heard the gossip from, and I'm not as great as you say."

"I'm just a mediocre person, and all I've tasted along the way is failure."

Uchiha Ci raised his eyes and looked at the Konoha base camp not far away, and then looked at the surrounding environment.

The stench of miasma blocked the noses of the Inuzuka family's dogs, and Uchiha Shisui deliberately brought them to this blind corner where they were at the root and could not be peeped by Byakugan, thus avoiding all the prying eyes.

If anyone finds out, even Shisui will be held accountable.

"If you have anything to do, please tell me—"

"This is not the place you should come. If people from Konoha find you, you won't be able to leave."

"it is good!"

Yahiko also knew that the opportunity was hard to come by, so he immediately took a deep breath and said solemnly:

"Then I'll tell the truth!"

"Uchiha Ci, just like you risked your life to achieve mutual understanding between your family and the village, and you stood up and drew your sword to save the suffering of foreigners——"

Yahiko pressed his hand on his chest, looked energetic, and spoke in the most determined tone:

"The 'Xiao' I founded is also based on this concept!"

Then he turned around,
Pointing to the battlefield littered with corpses outside the camp, pointing to the weeping country, he calmly stated:
"To prevent the Third Ninja War, to achieve a future where people can understand each other, and to save this country that continues to cry endlessly."

"We will not rely on extreme force and power to create the peaceful belief that everyone expects."

"So, I want to invite you-"

"I want to invite you, who is younger than us, but walked in front of us without hesitation."

"For such a goal, we need your power!"

Yahiko raised his head and stared at Uchiha Ci with stern eyes.

He took out a brand new windbreaker with red cloud pattern on black background from under the windbreaker.

He held it in front of Uchiha Ci with both hands and bowed at ninety degrees.

Then he closed his eyes and said loudly:
"Please accept me as your boss and join our organization——"

"dawn!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone present was shocked.

Uchiha Ci also twitched the corner of his mouth, wondering what on earth is going on?

How come there was Orochimaru who wanted to be his father, and then there was Yahiko who wanted to be his boss in the blink of an eye?
I obviously didn't do anything? !

At this moment, no one in the group expected,
Yahiko came here to invite a Konoha ninja, a Konoha ninja whom he met for the first time, to join their new small organization.

Even Shisui, who was regarded as a friend by the three Akatsuki, had never received such treatment.

"Yahiko?!"

Behind Yahiko, Konan and Nagato were immediately startled and a little confused.

However, after seeing Yahiko doing that, they gritted their teeth slightly, then immediately stood next to Yahiko and followed him to bow to Uchiha.

Just like Jiraiya did when he was their disciple, Yahiko was everything to them.

however,
Looking at the three people in front of him, Uchiha showed no emotion in his words and said very decisively:

"Sorry, I refuse."

"you"

As soon as these words came out, Nagato behind Yahiko immediately raised his head and glared at Uchiha Ci with slight annoyance.

However, Uchiha Ci was not afraid of him. Instead, he looked at the other person's lit eyes with interest. He even wished that Nagato could summon the heretic demon and slap him away.

Uchiha took a deep breath, looked at Yahiko, and said unceremoniously:

"You have said so much, but what you really want to achieve is only the last one."

"Just, save this country."

Then, he asked coldly:
"So, what are you going to do?"

"How are you going to achieve the goal of 'creating the belief in peace without relying on extreme force and power'?"

Yahiko raised his head, his eyes still firm even though he was rejected.

He smiled very confidently:

"I have thought about this question before."

"I used to think that as long as the other person felt the same pain, we could understand each other."

"Feel the pain, experience the pain, accept the pain, understand the pain, and then you will be afraid of this pain."

"As long as I conquer the world and make the world feel pain, the future I hope for will arrive."

Yahiko spoke with a heavy tone, recounting his truest thoughts,
Hearing these words, Shisui's expression changed slightly and he was a little stunned.

"But later, I discovered that there is a better way than this-"

Yahiko raised his head, his tone changed, and he said firmly:

"Only by talking to your opponent openly, without hiding anything, and showing your sincerity! Then, sit down and drink brotherly wine with him!"

“Only in this way can people truly understand each other!”

"This method is the most needed, most desired, and most difficult path for people in this world!"

Yahiko raised his head, his eyes were firm, his tone was decisive, and he said in a deep voice:
"This is what I want you to hear,"

"Our Akatsuki faith!"

however,
Such words cannot impress Uchiha Ci.

He shook his head, looked at Yahiko expressionlessly, sighed and said:

"It's very well said and very contagious."

"But I'm telling you, that's all."

"In this world, it's just impossible, it doesn't work."

Yahiko was not discouraged at all, but instead looked at Uchiha Ci with bright eyes and asked:

"why?"

"Haha, why?"

Uchiha Ci couldn't help but sneered, and said unusually calmly,

"Because this is a world where power is paramount!"

He stared coldly at Yahiko who wanted to drag him into the water, and his tone was cold:

"I don't know if people can understand each other. That kind of justice is too illusory to me."

“But if you want people to listen to you honestly, you must first make them willing to listen to you.”

"Principles are made with fists, do you understand?"

After saying this, Uchiha looked at Yahiko deeply, regardless of whether the other party understood or not.

Mentioning this point is already his greatest kindness.

Yahiko chose the most difficult path without a doubt.
Even the god of ninja Senju Hashirama was unable to follow this path in the end.
Sincerity can indeed be replaced by sincerity, but it is more likely to be replaced by a cold hammer.

One thought comes to this,
Uchiha didn't even say a word. He simply grabbed Shisui by the collar and turned around to leave.
As he walked, he said in a deep voice:

"Shisui,"

"Don't associate with this group of people again. That guy's road is too dangerous."

"If you're not careful, he will lead you into the ditch."

Soon, the sound drifted away with the wind.

The dull Country of Rain still hasn’t changed much.
The heavy rain poured down mercilessly, covering the two figures in the wind and rain.

In the gloomy woods,

Yahiko looked at the Akatsuki robe in his hand that could not be sent out, sighed, and stuffed it back into his sleeve robe.

Xiao Nan looked at him with concern and asked, "Yahiko, are you okay?"

"He seemed to reject it completely."

Nagato looked at Uchiha Ci walking further and further away, shook his head, turned to look at Yahiko and comforted,

"But it doesn't matter, we believe you."

"Hahahahaha~!"

However, facing the comfort from his two teammates, Yahiko was not shocked at all and instead burst out laughing.

"Who said he refused?"

Yahiko raised his eyebrows and patted Nagato and Konan's shoulders with one hand.
"Listen, Nagato, Konan,"

"The key to mutual understanding I say is to be open-minded and not hide from each other."

"He has completely understood our philosophy and he has made it clear to us what he thinks."

"It was a heart-to-heart."

Yahiko smiled slightly, showed a confident smile, and clenched his fists.

"Now that he understands us, the next thing to do is to make him agree with our path."

"Be our partner!"

Hearing this, the two of them were choked for a moment, not knowing how to reply. Finally they looked at each other and had no choice but to ask:

"Yahiko, what are you going to do?"

Yahiko narrowed his eyes slightly and looked across the rain curtain at the disappearing figure.
He thought for a moment, then frowned and said:

"This guy, although he says it's impossible and doesn't work, everything he does is to move towards peace."

"Next, we will continue to act normally, Xiaonan, you come and keep an eye on him."

"Let's see what big moves he will make next. When the time comes -"

Yahiko slapped his thigh and made a plan:

"Let's help him!"
