Chapter 145 Sasuke returns, Uchiha Hikari joins Konoha

"Yagyu, you came to me!"

After Yagyu left the Hokage's office, he did not return to Tanshu Street, but appeared In a wilderness with a bonfire.

Seeing Yagyu appearing next to him, Sakura, who was having dinner with Naruto and Kakashi Hatake grilling fish, immediately threw herself into his arms with a look of surprise on her face.

"Ah...I suddenly missed you, so I came to see you."

Yagyu held Sakura who was rubbing against him, then looked at Hatake Kakashi and Naruto who were joking, and asked with a smile: "Are you going out on a mission this time, or what are you doing?"

< br>"We are looking for Sasuke."

Naruto's eyes were a little dim, but he soon shouted full of energy: "We received information from Uncle Dazuna. After Sasuke broke up with Orochimaru, We showed up in the Country of Waves with two people, fought with the people there, and took away Mochi Zabuza's decapitating sword. We are going to the Country of Waves to see if we can find any traces left by Sasuke. "< br>

"That's it."

Yagyu suddenly realized and smiled: "Then you don't have to go, just go back to Konoha."

"Eh? What do you mean?"

Naruto was slightly startled, while Hatake Kakashi's eyes flashed.

"Literally."

Yagyu smiled and said slowly: "Uchiha Sasuke has succeeded in revenge. He almost died with Uchiha Itachi, and then I rescued him. In two days, I will bring him back to Konoha."

"Really?"

Naruto immediately stood up and ran to Yagyu, pushed Sakura away, grabbed Yagyu's shoulders, and said excitedly: "Yagyu, you didn't lie to me, did you? Sasuke succeeded in revenge, and he is willing to return to Konoha. This Is it true?"

"Naruto, you bastard, get away!"

Before Yagyu could reply, Naruto was picked up by the collar and his body was taken away. Throw away.

Fortunately, Sakura did not awaken her second personality, otherwise Naruto would not have been thrown away, but would have been punched or kicked away.

After throwing Naruto away, Sakura lay in Yagyu's arms again, her expression equally excited, but more curious, and she couldn't help but ask: "Yagyu, how did you find Sasuke?"

This is what Hatake Kakashi is curious about.

Now that I think about it carefully, when Uchiha Sasuke was able to successfully defect to Orochimaru, it was most likely that Yagyu deliberately failed to capture him.

After all, Yagyu might have been stronger than him back then.

With that kind of strength, it is impossible not to be able to chase back an Uchiha Sasuke.

And Yagyu's next words also proved Hatake Kakashi's guess.

I saw Yagyu touching Sakura's head and said with a smile: "Because I have been paying attention to you! When you were looking for Sasuke last year, I secretly followed you many times, and then found Sasuke in advance. I met Orochimaru and wanted to seize Sasuke's body in advance, but ultimately failed."

"At that time, I originally wanted to invite Sasuke back to the village, but unfortunately he was rejected."

"Because he is an Avenger, and he sought refuge with Orochimaru in order to gain powerful power. It is impossible for him to return to Konoha before killing Itachi Uchiha."

"So that meeting, I secretly left a mark on Sasuke's body just to ensure Sasuke's safety."

"Now that his revenge has been avenged, he still owes me his life. Under the steps I gave him, he will naturally. I won't refuse to come back to Konoha with me again."

"...That's it!"

Sakura and Naruto were suddenly enlightened. The former was even more touched because of the words 'I have always been paying attention to you', and looked at Yagyu with affection.

Only Hatake Kakashi was thoughtful.

Yagyu's words are perfect and very reasonable.

But as a rational ninja, Hatake Kakashi felt something was wrong. He always felt that it was not that simple.

Before he could think about it, Yagyu's next words made Team 7's expression suddenly change.

"By the way, a big event happened in Konoha just now."

Yagyu said solemnly: "An unknown enemy cast a large-scale curse on Konoha. Konoha The elders, the Sarutobi clan, the Shimura clan, the Mitomon clan, the Tensho clan, and the root organization of the Shimura elders were all killed by remote curses and reduced to ashes."

"What! "

Naruto suddenly looked shocked and said, "What about Konohamaru and Asuma-sensei? Are they okay?"

"I don't know."

Yagyu shook his head and said: "I also learned about it just after returning to Konoha. This curse only targets the Konoha Elders, the four major ninja clans, and the root organization, and Only within the scope of Konoha, it is said that none of the members outside were killed by the curse."

Hearing this, Naruto's face turned pale instantly, and he already knew the result.

Only for the area of ​​Konoha, that is to say, something happened to Konohamaru.

"Do you know who the murderer is?"

As soon as Hatake Kakashi said it, he felt that he had asked a stupid question, and quickly changed his words and asked: "Who is the biggest suspect?"

"It should be Beiruhu."

Yagyu said slowly: "I heard from Lord Hokage that before the large-scale curse killing, a pattern similar to the Mangekyō Sharingan appeared on the moon in the sky, but this pattern did not belong to Uchiha Itachi, nor did it belong to Kakashi-sensei. Your pattern, let alone Sasuke's, then there is only one possibility... It is the Akatsuki organization's Hirohu who changed his name and obtained the Mangekyou Sharingan, and he is the only one who has a deep hatred with the Konoha elders."

"The moon has changed?"

Sakura looked up at the silver moon and said in surprise: "No, we have never noticed that the moon has changed."

"If you can see it here, then this curse-killing technique is a bit scary." Yagyu rubbed her hair and said, "Only the moon above Konoha should have changed. This is also the case when they are out on a mission. The main reason why the members of the four major ninja clans were able to escape."

"In short, you don't have to go to the Country of Waves, just go back to Konoha."

After that. , Yagyu waved to Naruto and said: "Naruto, come here."

Naruto, who was in sadness, subconsciously came to Yagyu.

Yagyu stood up and put his hand on Naruto's shoulder, his palm shining with blue light.

After a few seconds, Yagyu retracted his palm and took out a small bottle filled with green liquid.

Inside the bottle, there is also an eyeball with a red pupil and a black dart pattern.

"Naruto, look at these eyes."

Yagyu shook the bottle in front of Naruto, and the sound brought Naruto back to reality.

"Woo woo..."

When Naruto looked at the eyeballs inside the bottle, his eyes suddenly widened and a strong feeling of vomiting came to his heart.

Immediately, his throat really bulged, as if something was coming up.

Soon, Naruto's cheeks also bulged, and then he opened his mouth and spit out a black object.

When the black object appeared, it turned out to be a crow.

It's just that the left eye of this crow is different from other crows, but a Mangekyō Sharingan with four-pointed shurikens.

Before the crow could fly to Naruto's shoulder and activate the transcription seal in his eyes, his body was grabbed by a hand.

Immediately afterwards, the crow lost its voice, and the left-eye god implanted in it also fell into Yagyu's hands and was put into a new potion bottle.

"This is..."

Class 7 was stunned by this scene.

"This is Uchiha Itachi's back-up plan specifically to target Sasuke."

Yagyu explained briefly, and then asked Team 7: "Do you need me to take you back to Konoha?" "Yagyu, can you take us to see Sasuke?" Naruto came to his senses and couldn't help but ask.

"No, both Sasuke and you need time to relax." Yagyu shook his head and refused.

"Then send us back."

Kakashi Hatake said with a solemn expression: "With such a big event happening in Konoha, our place may be needed."< br>

"Hmm... I hope Asuma-sensei will be fine."

Sakura made a praying gesture.

What she cared about was not Asuma Sarutobi, but Ino.

If Sarutobi Asuma also dies, I believe Team 10 will be very sad.

"Okay, come over then."

Yagyu put one arm around Sakura's shoulders and put the other on Naruto's shoulders.

After Hatake Kakashi also put his hand on Naruto's shoulder, the four figures disappeared into thin air without any warning.

——————

Two days later, the gate of Konoha.

"Lord Yagyu, welcome back."

"U...Uchiha Sasuke?!"

Today it was their turn to be on duty again, Kamizuki Izumo and Gang Zitie. They first greeted Yagyu respectfully, and then quickly registered the three of them.

But when they saw Uchiha Sasuke's signature, they were slightly stunned, and then looked at Uchiha Sasuke with wide eyes.

Uchiha Sasuke handed the pen to Yagyu expressionlessly, and Yagyu bent down to teach Uchiha Hikaru how to sign and register.

"U...Uchiha Hikari?"

Seeing another Uchiha Izumo Kamizuki and Gang Zitie, they couldn't help but open their mouths in shock.

"Thank you for your hard work, I will take Sasuke and Hikari to report to Lord Hokage."

Yagyu returned the pen to the two of them, and walked into Konoha with Uchiha Sasuke and Uchiha Hikaru. .

Uchiha Hikari, who had already seen the bustling Tanshu Street, was not as curious as a countryman entering the city.

For her, nothing else matters except Yagyu.

So she just held Yagyu's little hand like a well-behaved sister.

However, this combination still attracts a lot of attention.

It's so inconsistent!

Because Uchiha Hikari and Uchiha Sasuke are so similar, you can tell at a glance that they are either relatives or clan members.

But she did not hold Uchiha Sasuke's hand, but held Yagyu's palm.

Of course, there are also a lot of female eyes focused on Yagyu and Uchiha Sasuke.

If some people had not recognized Yagyu, they might not be able to help but flock to them and take the initiative to strike up a conversation with Yagyu and Uchiha Sasuke.

No way, Yagyu and Uchiha Sasuke are too good-looking.

And unlike Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara when Konoha was first established, Uchiha Sasuke does not have a bad reputation in Konoha and will not enjoy the feared treatment of Uchiha Madara.

A handsome boy group that is as gentle as the sun and as cold as an iceberg is simply killing all women.

Even some young girls cast hostile glances at Uchiha Hikaru, who was able to hold Yagyu's little hand.

Fortunately, there was no murderous intent, otherwise Uchiha Hikaru would have been alerted, and then he would have thrown a genjutsu at him.

Taking Uchiha Sasuke and Uchiha Hikaru into the Hokage Building, Yagyu and the other three soon appeared in front of Tsunade.

In the Hokage's office, Tsunade crossed her arms and looked at Uchiha Sasuke with a serious face. From time to time, she glanced at Uchiha Hikari next to Yagyu, as if she was examining the two of them.

But soon, a smile appeared on her face and she said to Uchiha Sasuke: "Sasuke, welcome back."

"Thank you for your tolerance, Hokage-sama."

Uchiha Sasuke bowed slightly to Tsunade.

If it were anyone else, the S-class rebellious ninja who had taken refuge in the village would definitely be included in the list of rebellious ninjas.

But Tsunade did not define him as a traitorous ninja, which allowed Uchiha Sasuke not to be hunted by Konoha ninjas and bounty hunters outside, and he could return to Konoha at any time.

So this thank you really comes from the heart.

"No need to thank me, just thank Team 7."

Tsunade shook her head and said: "They have been waiting for your return. Even now, Team 7 has not been disbanded. Some time ago I'm still looking for traces of you everywhere."

Hearing this, Uchiha Sasuke couldn't help but feel a warm current in his heart, and all kinds of memories from the past appeared in his mind.

The reason why he went back to the village with Yagyu so quickly was not only because he wanted to repay Yagyu, but also because of his bond with Team 7.

So, Uchiha Sasuke nodded and said: "I will apologize to them."

"That's good. It can be fully activated after the seventh class."

Tsunade also had a smile on her face, and then asked curiously: "I heard from Yagyu that you have awakened the kaleidoscope." Rinnegan, can you let me take a look?"

"Okay."

Uchiha Sasuke, who has been reviewing the script with Yagyu in the past two days, happily opened the kaleidoscope of the six-pointed star pattern. chakra eye.

Seeing that the pattern of Uchiha Sasuke's Mangekyō Sharingan was indeed what Yagyu said, not the three-wheeled crescent moon that night, Tsunade nodded, completely ruling out Uchiha Sasuke's suspicion. .

Immediately, her eyes came to Uchiha Hikaru next to Yagyu, and asked again: "Yagyu, who is this little girl?"

"Her name is Uchiha Hikari, and she is a wandering Uchiha."

Yagyu said cryptically: "She has been 'imprisoned' by Uchiha Itachi all these years, and it was me and Sasuke who rescued her."

Hearing this, Tsunade understood everything instantly .

Obviously, this girl is the last member of the clan whom Itachi Uchiha has been protecting.

Uchiha Sasuke was not dissatisfied either.

Although the top officials of Konoha are to blame for the demise of the Uchiha clan.

But it is also true that Uchiha Itachi personally killed his parents and clan members.

For this crime, even if Yagyu was willing to clear Uchiha Itachi's name, Uchiha Sasuke would not agree.

Uchiha Sasuke, who had killed his entire family of enemies, was relieved and let go.

Let Uchiha Itachi continue to bear this crime, and let Uchiha Hikari join Konoha legitimately.

This is his final contribution!

Knowing that Uchiha Itachi was a spy sent by Konoha to the Akatsuki organization, Tsunade didn't ask any more questions, nor did she doubt that the genocide that night was carried out by a girl who was only slightly older than Hanabi.

So with Uchiha Itachi's secret endorsement and Yagyu's guarantee, Uchiha Hikaru successfully joined Konoha.
