Xue Yueyu, who had been monitoring him, was very sensitive and alert. He immediately sensed someone staring at him. His cold eyes followed the line of sight and saw a beautiful girl who was about 11 or 12 years old. She had long purple hair that reached her shoulders and was staring at him.
When Xue Yueyu saw this scene, he could not help but think that it was a girl. He had unknowingly cultivated outstanding alertness during his five years of 'rooting'. Then, he turned his gaze elsewhere.
When the purple-haired girl was stared at by Xue Yueyu's cold and lifeless eyes, she could not help but feel a chill in her heart. At the same time, her face blushed slightly. She lowered her head. She knew that staring at him without letting him go was unladylike behavior, but what she was concerned about was why his eyes were so lifeless. Why were his lifeless eyes so cold? Why was there a hint of sadness in the coldness? Could it be that she was hallucinating?
The purple-haired girl was a little confused. When she noticed that Xue Yueyu's gaze had left her, she stopped paying attention to him. Instead, she calmed down and continued cultivating her saber technique.
However, Xue Yueyu did not know that the sadness in his heart that he tried his best to hide, even though he had deceived Tuan Zang and everyone in 'Root', was detected by a girl that he had met by chance.
An elite of the Dark Group who was guiding the group of young men and women in the training ground used a Blink Technique to appear in front of Zhigen and Xue Yueyu the moment he saw them.
The Dark Group elite looked at Zhigen and said in a familiar tone. "Zhigen, could it be that Lord Tuan Zang needs to select members? There are a few newcomers with good aptitudes this time.”
"They're just a bunch of brats who just graduated from Ninja School. How can they possibly take on the heavy responsibility of 'root'?”Zhigen looked at the boys and girls around him with disdain and said coldly,""Arakawa, I'll leave this brat to you to train for now.”
Arakawa glanced at Xue Yueyu and asked unwillingly,""This isn't a little brat from the Blood Moon clan, right? Why did you throw this trouble to me? This is Lord Tanzo's favorite weapon. Can you let him leave his 'roots'?”
"It was Lord Tuan Zang's order to hand over the Blood Moon brat to you!”Zhigen took out his group storage and said coldly,""Don't forget that you will always be a part of the root.”
"Zhigen, you're still as serious as ever. I'll never be careless when it comes to things that the leader of the group has instructed!”Arakawa said seriously with a serious expression.
"I'll leave the rest to you. I hope that the next time I see the little brat, he won't be acting like a puppet!”Zhigen glanced at Xue Yueyu and said.
"I understand!" Arakawa replied.
"Brat, remember that the person in front of you will be your superior in the future. His words are orders, and your current code name: 'Dark, this will be your name from now on.'”Zhigen said coldly to Xue Yueyu before he left.
At this moment, Arakawa had a smile on his face, but there was a hint of disgust in his eyes. He stared at Blood Yueyu's cold and heartless face with his lifeless eyes and muttered to himself,""It seems that Zhigen has brainwashed this little brat a lot in the past five years. Actually, this little brat should have been killed long ago, but it just so happened that Lord Tuan Zang took a fancy to this little brat's blood continuation limit.”
He remembered that when he led the 'Root' team to invade the Moon Village and was about to wipe out the entire Blood Moon clan, only one man stopped him. He controlled the terrifying blood blade and killed all the 'Root' team he led. Fortunately, the main team arrived at that time, or he would have become the soul of that man, and that man was the father of this little ghost.
Back then, the power that the Blood Moon Clan's Blood Successor Realm had displayed terrified him from the bottom of his heart. He also hated the fact that the son of his subordinate could still live in this world after killing him. Therefore, when he saw Xue Yueyu, the hatred in his heart could not help but be seduced. However, he suppressed it deeply and put on a fake smile.
"Since Zhigen said your name is An, I'll call you An from now on.”Arakawa said with a smile.
"Anything!" His smile seemed fake to Xue Yueyu because his eyes were filled with disgust. Xue Yueyu could feel it deeply. She spat out two words coldly.
"This brat is really condescending! If it wasn't for Lord Tuan Zang, I would have killed you long ago!”Arakawa cursed in his heart.
At this moment, the system's voice sounded in Blood Yueyu's mind.
[System Notification: Side mission triggered.]
[Side Mission: A-rank: Kill Arakawa, one of the leaders of the Blood Moon Clan that was killed five years ago.] (Time: Within a year)
Xue Yueyu's expression changed. She looked at the man named Arakawa, who was wearing a white overalls, and thought coldly,""You were also one of my minions back then, one of the enemies I wanted to take revenge on!”
Then, he released a detection spell.
[Character: Arakawa (Dark Group Elite)]
[Affiliation: Muye Village (Dark Group)]
[Overall Strength: A (Elite Jounin)]
[Potential Strength: A (Elite Jounin Peak)]
[Evaluation: Chakra attribute. Main: Wind. Secondary: Ray was good at Wind Escape and Blade Techniques. He was good at using fake smiles to deceive others and attack their hearts. He was one of the most capable officers of the group and one of the spies arranged to Naruto's faction.
He was actually a capable member of the team trove. His strength was an Elite Jounin, only slightly higher than his. He was also good at Wind Escape and Blade Techniques. It would not be difficult for him to kill Arakawa to complete the mission. After all, the system had given him a year's time. He believed that with the help of the system, his strength would definitely surpass Arakawa in half a year. The only difficult thing was how to kill him without anyone suspecting him.
However, this guy was an elite of the Dark Group and a capable member of the team trove. If he killed Arakawa, it would attract the attention of the two forces, Naruto and the team trove. At that time, even if the two forces used their power, it would be difficult to find out that he was the one who did it. Therefore, in order to kill Arakawa, he had to die naturally.
"An, come with me!" Arakawa continued to put on a friendly smile as he said this. Then, he turned around and walked towards the training ground.
Xue Yueyu looked at him coldly and followed him closely.
At the same time, the young men and women in the training ground also noticed Xue Yueyu walking toward them. They could not help but glance at him curiously. Who was this cold-looking and handsome young man that made Arakawa-sensei personally receive him?
Xue Yueyu was not used to the sudden gaze, but her expression was still cold and heartless. Her eyes were so cold that they made her feel a chill. She looked around at the young men and women.
At this moment, the young men and women in the training ground could not help but feel a chill when they saw Xue Yueyu's cold and distant gaze. They felt an unapproachable aura. Therefore, the young men and women did not want to be snubbed. They stopped looking at him and focused on their own training.
When Arakawa saw this, he couldn't help but think to himself,""As expected of a disgusting weapon!”
Arakawa and Xue Yueyu came to a training ground for saber techniques. The purple-haired girl who was practicing saber techniques looked a little shocked as she stared at Xue Yueyu with her sparkling eyes.
"Mao Yue Xi Yan, come over here!”Arakawa pointed at Xue Yueyu and said,""His name is Dark, and he will be your companion from now on!”
"Teacher, I've said before that anyone who can't compare to me in saber arts is not worthy of being my companion!”Maoyue Xiyan immediately retorted. Although she had been interested in this youth called An before, if she wanted to be her companion, she had to beat her in saber techniques. This was her principle, a principle that she could not give up.
When Xue Yueyu heard the purple-haired girl's name, he looked at the girl who was half a head taller than him and was shocked. This purple-haired girl was actually the Dark Group's Big Sister who rarely appeared in Naruto manga but left a deep impression on people. The moon is white and the moon is white.
However, he did not change his mind just because the girl was Yoshiaki. His expression was still cold and his eyes were still lifeless. Then, he ignored Arakawa and Yoshiaki. He took small steps to a wooden puppet that was used to practice saber techniques. He leaned against it and slowly sat down.
Arakawa and Maoyue Xiyan looked at Blood Yueyu, who was lying quietly with his back against the wooden puppet, in surprise.
