He looked at the document that he had already written and was placed aside by Starry Night like trash.
It wasn't unreasonable to say that it was trash, because these things had nothing to do with her. She only had the patience to complete them.
The third-generation's things had already been packed up a few days ago. It seemed that the time was almost up…
The fifth generation Naruto Tsunade had arrived at Kinoha Village. This was the news that Starry Night had just received.
Mu Ye's two advisors had planned to attend the meeting to welcome Naruto. As the representative, she had to attend as well, but Starry Night refused without hesitation, causing the elders to sigh repeatedly.
Since she was already here, she had no reason to attend.
Judging from this incident, Starry Night had not only given the countries an impression of being powerful, but also of having excellent leadership skills.
He had left Naruto's office a long time ago. He did not wear the Crimson Sword because it was indeed a little ostentatious. In the past, he had always hidden it under his cloak, and now there was no need to hide it anymore... Anyway, he would only wear it when he was on a mission.
The noise coming from the front made Starry Night frown in disgust.
Looking at the word " gamble " in front of her, she didn't intend to go forward. This kind of scene didn't suit her.
[Granny Tsunei! Didn't you promise me that you would go and see the boy with thick eyebrows? Don't even think about going back on your word!」
It was obvious that it was Naruto, and then came the strong voice of the "woman","I told you not to call me grandma!"」
When she saw that person, she was at a loss for a moment. The famous Thousand-Hand Tsunami, one of the Sanin, was actually such a person. She seemed to have noticed Starry Night's gaze as well. She turned around and was stunned for a moment.
He had to admit that this was the first time he had seen such a special girl. It was not just because of her silver hair and blood-red eyes, but because of her calm temperament that was different from a child's. There was also that probing gaze that concealed her cold sharpness.
The air was mixed with an inexplicable aura, and Okami also became serious. They were both smart people. When they met for the first time, their auras were not inferior, but they felt like they were worlds apart. It was as if they were black and white, two completely different sharp expressions.
[Starry Night! I heard that you cured Sasuke. That's amazing!」
[Ah.] He responded indifferently. The atmosphere just now had also dissipated because of a certain someone's eager interruption.
Mute, who was standing behind Okate, saw the doubt in his eyes and quickly answered,"This is the Naruto agent before Okate, Starry Night." He heard that he was a very capable child.」
Jingyin was a proud assistant and seemed to be a medical genius. She was indeed more serious than Tsunei.
[Oh, how interesting!] She smiled as she observed the well-received girl in front of her.」
[Likewise.] He didn't think much of it. He only became an agent because he was bored.
[Ah! There's no time to chat, granny Tsunete! Come with me quickly." Naruto urged him anxiously, but the lord was indifferent.
Starry Night didn't plan to go with them, so he left in the opposite direction.
Starry Night had mastered about 80% of the woman's strength. She was superb in terms of medical skills. To be specific, she was a combat medical ninja. Coupled with her own qualifications, she was indeed very suitable for the position of a gang shadow.
She did not compare herself. The difference was complicated. It could only be said that they were two different ninjas of the same type.
She reached into her pocket and took out some chocolate. It was her favorite taste.
It would be the opening ceremony in two days for Hoshi to meet Tsuneo again. They had also found a solution for the treatment of Lee Locke by the fifth generation Naruto.
She did not participate in anything these few days, quietly waiting for time to pass.
The valiant woman stood on the tall tower of the village. Even though she was far away, one could still see the incomparable determination in her eyes and the determination to protect the village. Her confident smile and oath made her seem like a true leader, unquestionable.
Everyone looked up to the fifth generation Naruto with anticipation, admiration, respect, and worship.
Starry Night sat on a tree, deliberately avoiding the crowd and watching everything with her eyes closed. Although she had been an agent before, she had never seen anyone look at her like that.
There were often only expressions of shock, doubt, disbelief, and so on. There were more or less expressions of deliberate evasion and fear.
As expected, she was not suited for such a role.
The next day, the sudden notification made Starry Night question. Now that she had returned to the Genin class of the seventh team, there was no need to reduce the burden of the current Naruto. She had completed those documents previously, which made Tsunete feel a lot more relaxed.
But now, she had to go to Naruto's office " immediately ". What was so urgent?
After arriving, most of the Jounin class ninjas were gathered in the office, including the fifth generation Naruto sitting in the middle.
With so many people here, it was definitely not about a mission. Looking at their expressions, it was a smile that Starry Night didn't understand. Okami's eyes were serious and relaxed as he began to guess what was going on.
" I've been paying attention to you before, and I've also seen your previous records. In addition to your performance as an agent, you've long surpassed the average level of a chuunin..." At the same time, it wasn't as if she hadn't discovered that this girl was the White Reaper.
Okami then said,"After the confirmation of all the Jounin present, it seems that I can't make a decision on my own.」
Starry Night listened quietly, his eyes narrowing out of habit.
[Then, from now on, you will skip a grade and become Jounin!]」
「……」
She had never thought that she would skip a level to Jounin, but it would not affect her much. It was just that she had more missions and was busier than usual. Starry Night had already admitted that ordinary Jounin could not take on missions in the past.
[I refuse.] Crossing his arms in front of his chest, his aura was unstoppable!
The surrounding Jounin looked at him in surprise, but Kakashi sighed with a " I knew it " expression.
[Why? Shouldn't most people sigh when they encounter such a thing?」Okami was becoming more and more interested in her, although he was right! However, it was obvious that Starry Night was not the so-called "ordinary person."
[...] When faced with a question that one did not want to answer or could not answer, silence was the wisest choice.
She did not want to become a teacher, just like Kakashi! Starry Night didn't really like taking care of children, even though she was a child herself…Forget it! This was a taboo.
" Lord Naruto, although Starry Night has been promoted to Jounin, she is still my student. Considering her current age, I hope she will at least be a member of the seventh group..." Kakashi was only helping Starry Night out by saying this.
Starry Night's face darkened, and the air around him dropped several degrees after Kakashi mentioned the word " age ". His eyes were filled with killing intent as he glared at the person who had spoken just now.
The other Jounin broke out in a cold sweat. Most of them knew about the so-called taboo of Starry Night. Even if no one mentioned it, they knew it in their hearts.
Kakashi smiled nonchalantly. He was the only one with such courage.
"I have indeed thought about this matter, so the problem of the mission should still be within the scope of the seventh team.」
Starry Night's quick grasp of the meaning behind Tsunei's words caused him to raise his eyebrows in contemplation.
[If that's the case, there shouldn't be a problem!」Kakashi asked Starry Night, only to be met with awkward silence and cold air.
[She seems to have agreed!]
The word 'Jing' appeared on someone's forehead. Very good! When did she agree? Then, the negative pressure exploded without warning, making it impossible for the innocent Jounin to escape!
" Then it's decided..." Although Tsunete felt it, he didn't care. Silent exclaimed in his heart behind him.
The others had disappeared without a trace when Lord Naruto announced the end of the meeting. It could be seen that a certain someone was completely furious this time! This was the result of breaking her bottom line! If he couldn't bear it anymore, then there was no need to endure anymore! If it was in the past, he would have drawn his sword long ago.
Kakashi knew that he had gone overboard. Although he was helping her, there was nothing he could do if the other party did not appreciate it.
"Kakashi and Starry Night, you guys stay.」
A certain someone, who had originally thought of running away, immediately dismissed the idea.
[Is there anything? Lord Naruto." He was helpless, but after seeing Okami's serious expression, he realized the importance of the matter. Moreover, even Starry Night stayed behind, which made him even more puzzled.
"Actually, it's about Starry Night. As a teacher, you need to know about this.」
Starry Night's cold suppression was temporarily stopped. He stood still and guessed the severity of the matter. Because it was related to her, he had to listen.
[I know more or less about your previous Dark Group missions. To be honest, I don't agree!」
Sensing the silence between the two, he continued,"I know your past identity very well. Although I don't know what you've experienced to willingly accept an assassination mission that only the Dark Group carries out, I hope that you can only participate in the Seventh Group's matters now.」
Just like what Starry Night had sensed at that time, she did not like others to influence her decision.
"I don't intend to change my choice because of your opinion.」
She could have settled down, but she was still secretly carrying out the same assassination mission as before. The reason was never mentioned. Many people thought that it was because of her own habits, but no one knew the eternal sorrow in the girl's heart!
[In that case, I can apply to join the Dark Group.」Starry Night knew that someone had become the leader of the Dark Team at the age of thirteen. Although she was only twelve now, it should not be a problem.
Kakashi looked at Starry Night with a complicated gaze, surprised that she had said she wanted to join the Dark Group.
Okami sighed and carefully sized up the girl in front of him. Such words made the person pause in thought."Why are you so obsessed with killing?」
She was unexpectedly calm and silent.
Although she was usually like this, Kakashi had never seen her look like that before! There was no killing intent in the topic. There was a faint desolation, and there were some colors that he had never seen before and could not see clearly.
Both his hands hung down slightly, but Kakashi's eyes confirmed that the trembling was so subtle that he suspected it was an illusion!
He thought that she would say something else, but Starry Night just turned around and left, leaving behind an indifferent sinking feeling.
Tsuneo's attention and Kakashi's worry, they did not wish for Starry Night to face that kind of thing so early, even though it might have been a few years too late.
She was still…just a child.
Okami hoped to find out the reason for her persistence. The look in Starry Night's eyes at that time was engraved in her heart. It was not something that ordinary children could have. It was too different from what she had imagined!
Even someone who had faced the fate of being an assassin since childhood would not have such fear! That's right, even if she concealed it so that it was not easy for others to notice, she still saw it, as if she had experienced the edge of death countless times!
She was afraid, but what could it be that could make her so frightened?
Okami believed that Starry Night wasn't a bloodthirsty killer. There must be some reason that forced her to take action. He observed her silently, but he did not expect her to hide it so well after that. It was as if her gaze did not exist at all.
Starry Night stood on the roof and looked at the entire village, but he did not put his mind on the scenery.
He looked up at the sky and the corners of his lips curled up as if he was mocking his own existence. Even the smile in his blood-red eyes was cold and sharp.
What exactly did he see in those bloody eyes?
Was it a sin…then who committed it?
The flaming crystal pendant on his neck seemed to be a rare gem that he couldn't put down, but no one expected Starry Night to want to smash it with one hand.
It should have been a crystal that was burning with fire, but its color gradually turned light and clear.
In the crystal that was as clear as spring water…he saw desolation and sorrow.
Was it atonement? What a ridiculous joke.
