Unexpected Showdown
Spring once again brought green back to the earth and became the master of time. The history of Ninja Realm had unknowingly turned a page. It was just that the current situation was still so corrupt that I couldn't figure out which direction fate and history would choose. It was likely that no one would pay attention to and appreciate the beautiful scenery of early spring like I did.
"Although the scenery of early spring is so beautiful, it can't last long. There's nothing in this world that lasts forever. Even if there was, people would get tired of it after seeing it too much.”Accompanied by words with a different meaning, Sayaka Hinata appeared in front of me.
"Congratulations on becoming Lord Okami's disciple, Kasai.”In the end, Okami still accepted Nicola Hinata as his disciple. Since he had met her, he should at least congratulate her.
"I don't think there's anything worth congratulating. Could it be that Qijun is congratulating me for finally becoming of some use?!”His tone was not as sharp as he had imagined. It was just a faint calm, as if he was narrating something that had nothing to do with him.
As expected, he still had his own thoughts. If it were anyone else, they would not remain loyal to the family that had treated them like that and pretend that nothing had happened. However, what's the point of her being so straightforward with me? It's worth pondering.
"It seems a little inappropriate to say this in front of me.”I smiled bitterly. Before he knew what her purpose was, it was better not to interrupt.
"Then what should I say?" Xiang Cai looked at me seriously.
" But…" I thought about it carefully, and we really didn't have anything to talk about. It wasn't that we couldn't bring it up, it was just that it wasn't suitable. Otherwise, after going in a big circle, we would still come back to this topic.
"Qijun, do you know? I've been observing you, observing your words and actions, your actions, and your thoughts. I've also collected all the information about you.”It seemed like he was up to no good!
"Can thoughts be observed? Why didn't I know about it?" I instinctively felt that it was better not to talk about all this with her. I immediately grabbed a loophole in her language and started to change the topic.
"When I said this, I thought of your current reaction. So, Qijun, please don't change the topic, okay? I was indeed observing your thoughts, and I succeeded. I also saw some interesting things. I've gradually understood you, and I'm constantly changing in this process.”The sly look that she hadn't seen for a long time appeared again.
"Then why are you observing me? When did you start observing me?”I didn't want to ask her what she saw that was interesting. That was definitely what she wanted me to ask the most.
"I've been observing you since the first time I saw you. As for the reason, at first, it was the family's request. Later on, it was because I really wanted to know,'We're both chess pieces of the family. Why am I so unsuccessful while you're so successful?'!”The second half of the answer was quite unexpected.
"Then did you get what you wanted?”I tried my best to take the initiative in the conversation.
"Yes, I finally understand now.”Xiang Cai's face revealed a look of enlightenment.
"Congratulations then. I still have something to do.”It's not easy to deal with. Let's dodge first.
"Qijun, many people saw me coming in your direction just now. If I was suddenly discovered and died here after you left, what do you think others would think?”Xiang Cai stood in front of me and spoke in the gentlest tone she could muster. Her face was filled with a maddened expression that would cause one's heart to palpitate.
"I came to you this time to gamble everything I have. If I fail, it will only be the difference between dying early and late.”Seeing my hesitation, she added.
"What others think is what others think. The important thing is what others think. That's the true wisdom.”I said with a double meaning. In fact, she did threaten my weakness. I had to be careful of what others thought. Our identities were too sensitive now.
"Qijun's words are really thought-provoking. Xiangcai has learned a lot. Can we continue our conversation now?”
"No, I'm the one being taught. You can continue." I have a feeling that big trouble is coming.
"From my observation of you, I can see that you are not willing to be manipulated by others. It is only a matter of time for you to break off with the Uchiha clan. Similarly, you are also very good at enduring. Moreover, before you have enough ability, you will continue to endure. Am I right?" Xiang Cai stared at my face very carefully, afraid that she would miss a minute expression.
"What you said is basically correct, but there is one thing that is wrong. I'm not willing to be manipulated by others, but I definitely won't leave the Uchiha family. On the contrary, I want to steal the entire Uchiha family into my hands. What about you? You didn't come to find me just to say that it's useless, right?”I'm not worried that she will spread my words. Even if she did, who would believe her? I could also say that she was slandering.
"I…I don't have as much ambition as you. I'm just a person who wants freedom.”When she heard my words, she first revealed a shocked expression before slowly saying, expressing her complicated feelings.
"To be honest, your idea is even more difficult to realize than my ambition.”I looked at her head. My gaze seemed to have penetrated the forehead guard on her head and saw the ugly curse mark.
"That's why I came to find you." His expression was very calm, and there was no anger as he had imagined.
"But I don't have the ability to help you. Besides, I don't have any research on that kind of thing.”
"No, although you can't do it now, you might not be able to do it in the future. You are a genius in ninjutsu. As long as you are willing to spend time, you will be able to do it one day.”Her tone was filled with confidence in me. No, she was looking for hope for her own survival.
"To tell you the truth, when I reach Shadow level, I will be qualified to study the thing on your head. Moreover, I don't know if I can succeed or how many years I will need to study it before I can succeed!”The Uchiha family had studied the incantation seal of their old rival, the Hinata clan, for a long time. Although they did not succeed in the end, they had some experience and information. However, these were the family's secrets, but they weren't very confidential. Any Uchiha clansman who had reached a certain level could see them.
"It's okay. I can wait until you finish your research.”His tone was firm and he didn't refuse.
"But why should I waste my time on you? Why should I help you?”I asked.
"I naturally won't let you work for me for nothing. I will give you enough compensation. This is also the reason why I didn't come to you before. At that time, I really didn't have anything that could move you.”As expected, she had thought it through. She was so meticulous at this age. What a terrifying heart!
"Alright, then tell me what you can give me.”I know that if I don't agree to her today, there's no way things will end well. It's fine to agree to her first.
"I know that you have been secretly studying the low-level ninjas who came to you for treatment. You should be doing some research, right? I believe I can give you some help. Of course, this is secondary." She paused for a moment before continuing," You should be very interested in some things about the Hinata family, right? I can tell you everything I know." "In addition, my current status as Tsunake's disciple is also quite good. I can also use it to do some things for you.”
"That sounds good, but I have another request. From now on until you are free, you must firmly obey my orders and be my subordinate. Of course, I won't make you do anything difficult.”With such a person helping me, some of my previous plans might succeed.
"Very fair. As long as you can help me obtain my freedom, I will be your subordinate in the future.”Xiang Cai promised.
"Very good. My first order is that when we meet in the future, we must return to the way we met in the past.”I didn't need to be polite with her and gave her the first order.
"Understood, sir." Xiang Cai's expression immediately returned to her usual indifference. Indeed, women were experts at changing their faces.
"Kai, there's one more thing that I've been wanting to tell you. For the past half a year, there have been people from the Uchiha Clan secretly monitoring you.”
"Got it." This was within my expectations. After I told Fuqiu those shocking remarks, I was already prepared for this.
"Also, Okate Sensei seems to be paying special attention to you.”Another piece of bad news.
It wasn't strange for Okami to pay special attention to me. I had both the Uchiha Clan and the Thousand-Hand Clan, two of the strongest bloodlines. Now that I was acting like a genius, it would be strange if no one paid attention to me. Fortunately, my performance has always been flawless. No matter how hard they look, they can't see anything.
I waved my hand, signaling for Xiang Cai to leave first. After that, I stood where I was and carefully considered the things that had happened recently before returning to the medical class to continue working.
Today's incident was too unexpected. He had to change his plans in the future.
Today's mission is complete.
The protagonist finally had his first follower!）
