●Author: Happy New Year.

.... ... .... .... ....

There is currently a fight between the Konoha Ninja and the Ame Ninja in an area of ​​the Land of the Rain. There was a boy looking at that fight from a hill near the battle so that he could see the entire battlefield. This boy is Ryuu and next to him is a girl from the Hyuga clan.

Ryuu looks like a sixteen-year-old young lad with a young body. His skin is white, but it is not pale white, nor a feminine pinkish-white, it is a white that is clean and simple. His long hair is black and shiny, extending to his waist, each strain of hair is durable and thick, resembling thin steel wires. His body is slightly thin, there is no excess flesh on his entire body. The bridge of his nose is high, the most attractive features are his eyes,  they are dark and deep like an abyss. His lips are quite rich, giving off a rosy and healthy glow, they are tightly pursed together, showing his mental state of being determined and unwavering.

Although he appears to be sixteen years old, he is actually twelve years old.

"Ryuu-sama, there are some Konoha ninjas who are seriously injured in the northeast direction." The task of the Hyuga girl next to Ryuu is to locate the severely injured Konoha ninja.

As soon as Ryuu heard this, he looked toward the injured ninja and use the Eternal Mangekyu Sharingan; used his left eye ability.

Within moments, the ninja who was on the verge of death regained his full health and all his wounds were gone and then he returned to the fight.

As long as the ninja is not dead, Ryuu can restore him to peak condition and heal all his wounds just by looking at him.

Hours later, the battle ended with the victory of the Konoha ninja and the withdrawal of the Ame ninja without Ryuu participating in the fight personally. All he did was treat the people who were close to death in the battle, reduce losses, and make some plans to facilitate the victory of the Konoha ninja.

Ryuu looked at the Hyuga girl standing next to him and gave her a sweet smile, "Hikari, thank you for your hard work."

"I'm happy to work with you, Ryuu-sama." Hikari smiled shyly that she was really happy to work with him, 'Ryuu-sama is a really nice and wonderful person, unfortunately there is enmity between our two clans.'

Hikari possesses fair skin and long, dark-purple hair slightly past her waist and side bangs framing her face down to her shoulders. She was wearing a purple, long-sleeve kimono.

She is really a beautiful girl that can be compared to Kushina and Mikoto.

"Hikari, I am really thankful for your hard work, with your help we were able to save many lives." When she heard Ryuu's compliment, she blushed but was really glad that she was so helpful to him.

In fact, Ryuu doesn't need her help at all, but he accepts that she stays with him because the Hokage sent her to help him. And also because staying with a beautiful girl is better than being alone and seeing a group of men kill each other.

Kushina, Mikoto, and Tsunade are all sent to battle positions behind Ryuu's, and the only person left with him is konan.

But he usually leaves her in the camp with some wood clones guarding her and staying with her.

"Hikari, do you want to go with me for some food later after the war is over?" While Ryuu and the troops are returning to the camp, Ryuu talks to Hikari.

"The war is still at its height, you talk as if the war will end soon. Anyway, I agree to go out with you to eat after the war is over." Hikari is really happy that Ryuu invited her to eat, it means that he is interested in her, But within that happiness came indescribable bitterness.

When she was in the ninja academy, she was in the same class with Kushina and Ryuu.

She was really envious of Kushina, who was able to find the person she loved and no one objected to her staying with him. (She does not know about the objections that occurred from the Senju clan and the elders of Konoha, because these objections were instantly silenced as soon as they appeared by Mito and Tsunade.)

Her clan is not interested in things of love, they are only interested in marriage within the clan in order to preserve their bloodline.

Her marriage to the son of the head of the clan was determined as soon as she was born, a fact from which she could not escape.

She really envies Kushina and Mikoto who can stay with Ryuu without anyone objecting to it. She bets that if she approaches Ryuu, her clan will object and may force her to hurry to marry the son of the head of the clan.

She knows that she can't be with Ryuu, so she doesn't approach him but how ironic in this war it's Ryuu himself who starts to approach her and talk to her.

She liked his kindness towards her, in this war she completely forgot about her clan and followed her feelings and fell in love with Ryuu.

But when she falls in love with him, someone from the clan is sent to warn her not to get too close to Ryuu.

At that moment she felt she had reached heaven but at the last moment she was dragged into hell.

She didn't reveal her feelings to Ryuu but kept them inside, knowing that she wouldn't be with him in the end due to the enmity between their clan.

Ryuu did not notice the bitterness in Hikari's heart and continued to speak, "No, the end of this war is near, as soon as Hanzō appears, if I can kill him, Ame Village will fall."

"And I don't think Hanzō will stand our inhabitant for longer than this, because Ame Village will fall if he does not appear, surely he will make a move soon." The fighting spirit ignited within Ryuu, it had been a long time since his last fight with a strong opponent.
