After returning from the previous mission in the Country of Waves, the number of missions Starry Night had received had decreased significantly. Perhaps it was because the day of the Chuunin exam was close to Kansai, the third generation also hoped that she would participate enthusiastically...
When she woke up, her head was still a little groggy. She rubbed her eyes. It seemed that she had no mission today. She placed her hand on her forehead and planned to continue sleeping.
[Hey, are you awake?] Sasuke's voice came from behind the door. At the same time, she was pulled back from her slumber.
She pretended not to hear him and buried her face in the pillow, trying to isolate herself from the world.
"Don't forget what you said before.」
It sounded strange. She seemed to have kept a distance from him. How could she have said anything?」After a while, he said,"You said you wanted to show me how strong you are.」
Her voice was buried in the pillow, sounding depressed."I didn't say that.」Indeed, Sasuke said it himself.
[Anyway, I'm going to cultivate today, so you can come with me.]」She thought that he had already finished speaking, but she heard,"I want to know the difference between my strength and ours..."
He stuck his head out and was silent for a long time until there was no more sound. He thought that he had already left. When he opened the door, he found that Sasuke was still standing there. This was something that Starry Night did not expect.
She narrowed her eyes and sized him up. Looking at his determined eyes, she felt a completely different aura from before.
In the end, he decided to compromise and walked downstairs without forgetting to say to the people behind him,"Follow me."」
[Here.] Arriving at a lake in the forest, Starry Night looked around and then looked at the indifferent person.」
Sasuke was a little surprised that Starry Night knew that he was going to train Fire Evasion, and he had even specially found a place with a lake. As a descendant of the Uchiha clan, Fire Evasion was a special ninja technique that he absolutely had to learn, and of course, it included Shurunyan.
He walked to the edge of the lake and formed a seal on the surface of the water.」
In an instant, a flame spewed out of Sasuke's mouth and burned to the center of the lake to form a huge fireball. The water surface was also slightly shaken by the wave. After a while, it stopped moving. As the flame subsided, smoke rose from the water surface. Starry Night stood aside and said,"It seems that it can't last long."」
[Humph.] Sasuke snorted coldly, put his hands in his pants, and made way for him."It's your turn."」
Starry Night walked forward and paused for a moment before turning back."How much do you want to know?」Sasuke replied,"As much as you can."」
[...] Very good! This was the same as not answering.
He stood there and closed his eyes. Sasuke did not say anything and just quietly waited for her next move. The wind blew in their silence, and the water flowed smoothly under the push of the wind. The sound also stopped the moment he closed his eyes.
The moment he opened his eyes, the color of his blood turned red, and a flame-like chakra emerged.
Sasuke's eyes widened as he stood rooted to the ground. He had also felt that it was not an illusion during the Genin's explanation session.
Starry Night restrained most of his murderous aura and observed Sasuke's shocked expression."Red Lotus can be considered a kind of eye technique that allows my chakra to remain tangible at all times, so its ability can attack. Of course, defense is also the same."」
He thought about everything that Blade had taught him in the past. Almost all of them relied on the Crimson Sword to replace the suffering of ninjas. Red Lotus's eye technique was equivalent to their ninjutsu, so she should be considered a special ninja.
"Red Lotus..." Sasuke quickly recovered, and his eyes became serious."Is it the same as Shurakan?"」
"Well, apart from the difference in abilities, the Sherringan is a blood inheritance limit passed down in the family, and only one person can possess the Red Lotus.」After saying that, he released the red lotus. The killing intent disappeared, and the surroundings returned to its original calm.
" I didn't know that such an eye technique existed before..." Sasuke muttered to himself. He didn't want to accept this fact.
Listening to his words, Starry Night looked down at the lake. The water was so clear that her expression could be reflected."There are still many things in this world that you don't know."」Liu Hai almost covered half of his face."Have you heard of bounty ninjas?」
Sasuke had heard about bounty ninjas from his father a few times before.
"It's an assassin profession where anyone can do anything for him as long as they're willing to pay a high price.」Seeing that Sasuke was silent, Starry Night could tell that he must have heard of it. As a member of the Uchiha clan, how could he not know about such a thing?
He looked up at the distant sky and whispered,"Then do you know a killer called White Death?」
Sasuke suddenly felt impatient."Why are you asking this?」However, Starry Night did not reply. Suddenly, a scene flashed across his mind. Could it be…
At this moment, a masked member of the Dark Group appeared beside the girl and interrupted him.
[What is it?] Starry Night's gaze turned to the Dark Group at the side. Her face was covered, so her expression could not be seen.」
[Got it.] After saying that, he disappeared without a trace.
He did not turn back, but stared at the lake and said to the person behind him,"I'm going to Naruto's place."」
[Yes.] After Sasuke responded, Starry Night had already disappeared from his sight. He stood there in a daze, feeling complicated and heavy.
[Is there something you need from me?] When Starry Night arrived at Naruto's office, he saw the third-generation successor who had been waiting for a long time.
"Starry Night, I didn't expect you to come so quickly. I won't waste any more time. I have a mission for you to carry out.」Then, he placed a letter on the table."Please send this letter to the Wind Country."」
[Sand Ninja Village, right?] Recalling her memories of the village, that country was the only place she had never stepped into.
The third generation nodded. I hope you can personally deliver this letter to the fourth generation Windshade.」
At this moment, she had nothing to say and casually put the letter into her pocket.
[Starry Night, you should know that the Chuunin exam is about to start!」He stroked his beard and said,"This letter is a letter of notification. When the time comes, please bring back the Genin who will be taking the exam."」
"..." Starry Night didn't say anything, feeling very dissatisfied. Sending a letter and then picking up people, she didn't really like this kind of mission. Seeing that she didn't respond, the third generation frowned."Is there a problem?"」
[No.] She was about to leave, but she remembered something."How long will it take?」
[It takes four days to get to Sand Ninja Village from here.」The 3rd Generation carefully calculated,"This mission will take at least nine days.」
[Seven days is enough.] The sudden reaction surprised him, but he immediately regained his usual expression.
He had seen this kind of situation many times. Every time he gave Starry Night a mission, she would either return early or complete it on the same day. Her efficiency in carrying out missions had also received great favor from the various dukes.
[Right! Starry Night, I hope that you can participate in the Chuunin exam this time. We need to rely on this opportunity to see your strength.」The 'us' that the third generation was talking about should be the elders of the other countries, other than Koba Jounin.
It seemed that the only people who knew that Starry Night was White Death were Muye's higher-level ninjas and dukes. The only reason why she, who should not have appeared in public, participated in the high-profile Chuunin exam was to use this opportunity to inform the five great countries that she had come to Muye, right?
[Understood.] As usual, he gave a short reply and left.
Starry Night remembered that he had not returned the medical book he had asked for previously. He was not in a hurry to find Sasuke, so he read it all first before returning it to the third generation.
He didn't expect the book to be so thick. It took him half a day just to finish reading it. When he slowly returned to the lake, he found Uchiha who was still practicing diligently. His big fireball could be maintained for twice as long as before, and its power had also become stronger. It seemed that his cultivation had indeed yielded some results.
The sound of Starry Night stepping on the branches on the ground made Sasuke quickly turn around. When he saw the person, he looked impatient and said,"Too slow."」
" I didn't say I would be back soon." He brushed it off honestly.
Sasuke sized her up."What does Naruto want from you? Another mission?"」
[Ah.] Starry Night still answered casually. Seeing that she was so indifferent, he raised his eyebrows unhappily."How long will it take?」
When did you start caring about such things?」He suddenly felt that it was funny. This guy had never even bothered with him before. Sasuke discontentedly rejected,"It's so noisy."」
In the end, she felt that it didn't matter whether he knew or not."Seven days.」Although the third-generation successor said that he could give her nine days, Starry Night would still carry out the mission to the best of his ability.
She noticed the wound on Sasuke's mouth. Did he burn himself while practicing Fire Escape?
"You've trained too much. Let's see how you eat later.」
After hearing Starry Night's words, Sasuke realized that the corners of his mouth had been burned. A light touch would cause him to feel numb from the pain.
He narrowed his eyes and moved his hand to Sasuke's mouth. A light shone from his hand and shone on the wound on his mouth. At this moment, the wound was gradually healing.
[Is this a medical technique?] Sasuke felt that the pain he felt when he opened his mouth had disappeared. He touched the original wound on the corner of his mouth in surprise.
[Ah.] She walked in the direction of the village."Since it's done, let's treat."」
"..." Sasuke was speechless. He knew that this guy wasn't that kind, but he didn't care about it for today's sake.」
Starry Night turned around and looked at him with a matter-of-fact expression.」
Sasuke was speechless."How did you become like Naruto?」
On the way to Yile, they were no longer one behind the other like before. Instead, they were shoulder to shoulder, maintaining an acceptable distance between them.
Sasuke: [Hey!]
Starry Night: [What?]
Sasuke: "You seem different today."」
Starry Night was speechless.
Sasuke: "I seem to be talking more.」
Starry Night was speechless.
Sasuke: [Pretend I didn't say anything.]
