Chapter 36 Necklace

In the rain.

Tsunade looked confused.

What shocked her even more was yet to come.

suddenly.

Shua.

Duan extended his left arm from under the cloak, parallel to the ground.

That giant arm is thicker than Tsunade's thigh, with tire-like bulging deltoid muscles, biceps that are plump like lotus roots, strong valgus triceps, and a section of steel-like forearm.

Perfect lines, strong sense of power.

This arm is the art of muscle.

The next second, the broken palm spread out, and a blue crystal necklace fell down.

This necklace... looks familiar.

Tsunade lowered his head abruptly, and saw that his chest was empty, only to realize that the necklace he usually hung around his neck had disappeared at some point.

arrived in Duan's hands.

This crystal necklace is a relic of the first generation of Hokage. It contains the chakra he sealed up, which has enough power to suppress the nine tails.

is one of Tsunade's most cherished treasures.

Now, Tsunade felt a dull pain in her chest, and the necklace seemed to be pulled off by force and taken away from her.

"How can it be?!"

After seeing that crystal necklace.

Tsunade finally turned pale with shock, his mind was buzzing, completely unable to understand what happened.

"This is the last warning. If you continue to entangle, I will not show mercy."

Duan said while putting away the crystal necklace, treating it as a trophy.

He didn't kill innocent people indiscriminately, and he didn't have any grudge against Tsunade. It was he who took the initiative to provoke the fight with Tsunade before, and the responsibility does not lie with her.

But if she wants to seek death, she can only do so.

Tsunade remained silent, staring fixedly at Duan's back. Although he still looked dissatisfied, his body was very honest.

Under Duan's warning, she dared not move her feet.

A few seconds passed.

Under Tsunade's gaze, Tsunade, who had been turning his back to her, finally turned around slowly.

This time, he walked towards Tsunade step by step.

Wherever he goes, the rain will separate automatically, and no drop will fall on him.

Gollum.

Tsunade swallowed his saliva, subconsciously clenched his fists, his eyes didn't blink, and his whole body was tense to the extreme.

Ten meters, five meters, one meter.

until zero distance.

During the heavy rain, he didn't squint, didn't glance at Tsunade, and just passed her by.

Tsunade still didn't dare to make a move after all, but turned his head stiffly at that moment, and caught a glimpse of the side face under the broken bamboo hat.

And, the purple five-pointed star birthmark under the other party's left neck.

Duan left, disappeared in the rain, disappeared in the depths of the woods.

Tsunade turned his head slowly, and he could no longer see Duan's figure, and could not sense the other party's breath.

Plop.

She finally relaxed, and slumped on the ground, letting the rain continue to slap her body.

The border of the Land of Fire.

Boom.

In a canyon, with the explosion of the detonating talisman, flames shot up into the sky.

Sure enough, as expected by the third generation, the Prajna of the forest kingdom betrayed Konoha, and after Maitekai saw it through, a battle broke out between the two sides.

The strength of the Kai team is not impressive, let alone Kakashi's Anbu to help.

So, this battle was one-sided without any suspense, and it ended soon.

On the clearing.

Amidst Kai's horrified expression, Itachi held his ninja sword silently, and made up swords one by one to the enemies who fell on the ground, followed by screams, leaving no one behind.

Kill all enemies without mercy, this is Anbu's mission.

Kai, with a sunny and kind personality, can't do such a thing, but for Itachi, who started killing people at the age of four, he has long been used to it.

Itachi will never forget what he saw when he was brought to the battlefield by his father when he was a child:

Ninjas from different ninja villages have the same distorted appearance of death, with corpses strewn all over the fields and rivers of blood flowing like hell.

At that moment, Itachi's young heart was strongly shocked.

Since then, he has dreamed that he can become the best ninjaHokage, so that he can change the world and eliminate war in the world.

And now, between Uchiha and the village, a war seems imminent.

Itachi counted the time, and if he rushes back now, he should still have time to attend the clan meeting.

Thinking of this, he breathed a sigh of relief.

On the way back.

Itachi suddenly asked Kakashi:

"Captain, you are not Uchiha but you have Sharingan and can use Uchiha's power. So, which side of the ninja do you think you are?"

Is it on the side of Uchiha or the side of the village?

At this moment, Itachi was not only asking Kakashi, but also asking himself in his heart.

"I never thought of such a question."

Kakashi shook his head, not interested in choosing sides, just said, "This Sharingan was entrusted to me by a friend. It reminds me not to forget the most important thing, that is, don't let my companions be killed."

Itachi heard the words and was thoughtful.

He heard that Kakashi even killed his companions in order to complete the mission, but now it seems that may not be the case.

but.

For Uchiha and Konoha, Itachi, who didn't get an answer from Kakashi, is still very confused about his identity and position.

Konoha Village.

Duan walked into that familiar alley, and saw from a distance that the gym had opened for business ahead of schedule.

It's just as usual, there are not many guests.

He pushed the door and entered.

"Curator, you are back." Samuel showed joy.

"During the time I was out, nothing happened, right?" Duan asked casually.

"No, everything is fine."

"Yes." Duan nodded.

He originally thought that after Danzang failed to send people to kill him, he would kidnap Samuel, an employee, to threaten him, or simply kill Samuel to vent his anger.

Now it seems that Danzo still has a pattern, although not many.

After asking, Duan picked up the box containing the banknotes and walked to his room. But after taking two steps, he stopped again and asked Samuel back:

"Is your birthday coming up?"

"Yes, it will be three days later. Thank you, curator, for your concern." Samui bowed.

After thinking about it, he took out the crystal necklace he snatched from Tsunade, and handed it to Samui as a birthday present.

Sam Yi was immediately flattered, and quickly handed the necklace back with both hands:

"Curator, this is too expensive, I can't accept it."

She could tell at a glance that this necklace was made of rare crystal ore, and the workmanship was very delicate.

"I bought this at random on the side of the road, it's worthless."

Juan made up a random reason, and walked away without waiting for Samuel to speak.

He knew that this necklace used to belong to Senju Hashirama, and there was a wooden chakra in it, which could restrain Jinjuriki.

Very precious.

But Duan also knew that Tsunade had given this necklace to her younger brother and lover successively, and they all died in the end.

This necklace seems to contain a kind of death curse.

Juan wanted to know if this was true, so he decided to use Samui as an experiment in the name of giving gifts.

Anyway, she is a spy of Yunying Village, after all, she is not one of her own.

Samui was completely unaware of Duan's sinister intentions.

She walked to the mirror, carefully put on the necklace, and watched the blue crystal sink into her chest, feeling a bit of coolness.

She likes it very much.

"Curator, you don't really want to chase me, do you?"

Samui muttered to himself while playing with the necklace, and his inner thoughts were complicated for a while.

Thanks for the 500 starting coins rewarded by South Wind and North Horse!
