Chapter 138 Shisui’s Arrival! The Curse of the Caged Bird!
"You don't need their approval?"
The slight smile on Shiro's face did not dissipate. Instead, it became more gentle. His voice also tended to be neutral between men and women: "It seems that Neji-kun is a very confident genius!"
"No." Neci brushed away the white hair that blew into his face, and the expression on his face remained unchanged: "This is not a kind of self-confidence, this is a kind of fate, a kind of fate."
Neji is a very silent and calm person.
The only people who could be more silent than him were the Aburame clan.
He didn't know...why he would talk so much useless nonsense in front of someone he met for the first time.
"A genius is destined to be a genius as soon as he is born. He does not need anyone's recognition. Destiny has destined him to be a genius."
Neji said calmly: "Mediocre people are destined to be mediocre people. No matter how hard you work, your life will only reach that level. You are only worthy of marveling at the talents of others."
"Just like a caged bird, it will always be a caged bird and will never be able to fly freely."
"Those free birds will always be free birds and will never be caged."
The words that have been suppressed in my heart for many years came out a little bit.
Neji also breathed a sigh of relief. At least the depression in his heart was relieved a little, but only a little.
"Destiny?" Bai Ruosi said thoughtfully, "It makes sense!"
These words made Neji look at him slightly.
What Neji saw was Shiro's profile.
At this time, Bai smiled and said: "But there is always a bird in a cage that can peck through the cage with its own strength, right? Even if it pecks its own beak to pieces, even if it pecks its own bones to pieces, even if it pecks it My own soul was annihilated because of this..."
"As long as you peck through and smash the bird cage, even if you can only achieve one day of freedom, one hour of freedom, one minute of freedom... it will surprise the person who put the bird in the cage, right?"
"Hey! It's just some nonsense in writing!" Ningci was very dismissive of Bai Bai's rhetoric.
If the caged bird could fly freely one day, would his father still die in that kind of thing?
Thinking of his father, Neji couldn't help but clenched his fists.
In fact, no one wants to resist fate more than him.
But in Ningji's eyes, the word fate was like a mountain that could never be moved, so heavy that it made him despair.
It also made his resistance gradually become closed.
Because he once tried to resist...but the caged bird on his forehead was triggered by the head of the Hyuga clan.
The kind of extreme pain that destroys the brain nerves...
It was the most painful thing Neji had ever felt.
Every time I think about it I am covered in cold sweat.
"Aren't many students in the ninja school coming from orphanages?" Bai didn't feel angry because of Ningji's attitude, and still maintained a gentle smile: "They join the ninja school and study hard, not just to be able to Can you free yourself from your fate?"
"Can they break free?" Neji lowered his head, looked at the busy ants on the ground, and said, "No matter how hard they try, their limit in life will be genin."
"In this world, there are also geniuses who surpass ordinary people, voluntarily become ordinary people, and finally die at the hands of ordinary people." Bai's voice was still soft.
"They have a good fate, but they deliberately put themselves in a bad fate due to various external factors. Is this a kind of resistance to fate?"
These words made Neji frown slightly.
He knew what Bai's words meant. He was probably a born genius who voluntarily allowed himself to be reduced to a mediocre fate.
"There will be no such stupid people in the ninja world." Neji said firmly: "For example, the eldest lady of our Hyuga clan, I have never seen her willing to draw any marks on her forehead."
Speaking of this, Neji couldn't help but touch the bandage on his forehead.
He didn't want to show the caged bird in the bandages to others.
This is one of the biggest scars in his heart.
What he said gradually became less polite.
Hinata Hinata was even mentioned.
"Yes!" Bai raised his head and looked at a white cloud in the sky. His sight seemed to be able to penetrate the barrier between the world and heaven, as if he could see the face that gradually became blurred in his memory: "That 'stupid' person ...She is my biological mother!"
Neji was stunned, and he realized that Shiro was still smiling.
But a line of crystal clear tears had already poured out of his eyes.
"Although... I don't know if you are willing to listen to my story, but I feel that there is nothing to hide in a person's story. The 'past' events are not so resistant to being revealed."
Although Shiro was weeping at the memory, his tone did not choke because of it: "As a genius of the Hyuga clan, you should be familiar with the 'blood successor boundary', right? My mother is a blood successor boundary ninja. "
Bai opened a hand, and a ball of cold air condensed in his palm, causing the surrounding temperature to drop several degrees.
This is the first time Neji has seen this kind of blood inheritance limit.
"When I was a child, I followed my mother to the mountains to collect medicine. That day... I saw my mother use her blood inheritance limit for the first time. When my mother encountered a giant tiger, it took less than a second to kill it. Become an ice sculpture.”
"She was such a mother. When she encountered that kind of danger, she was clearly capable of killing everyone in the village. But... mother, she did not choose to resist. She loved her father very much, and she died in the hands of my father. .”
"She was killed by my father... just because of the Blood Succession Limit, which is a so-called symbol of unknown disaster in the Kingdom of Water. I didn't expect that the Blood Succession Limit, which is envied by people in Konoha, would be so in the Water Country. Being discriminated against!"
Neji's expression changed slightly.
His eyes were a bit shocked.
At the beginning, he could guess that Bai's mother was dead. But he didn't expect that Bai's mother would actually die in the hands of Bai's father. Such a childhood experience would be...
Neji didn't know what to say.
"The limit of blood succession is in the country of fire. It is a genius, a destiny of being superior, and a destiny that is superior to mediocrity. The limit of blood succession is in the country of water. It is a disaster, a fate that invites death, and it will bring disaster to oneself. Come to discrimination and the fate of death.”
"Neji-kun, do you know why this is?"
Before Ningji could think about it, Bai took the initiative to explain: "Because... things like fate! It is always limited by those very powerful people!"
Neji's eyes gradually enlarged, and his fate was limited by powerful people?
"Assume that I am the Hokage of Konoha Village." Shiro looked at Ningci and said, "I declare that from now on, any family with blood inheritance limits will not be allowed to participate in the government affairs of Konoha Village, nor be engaged in business, They are also not allowed to occupy a family territory and incite people to discriminate against families with limited blood lines."
"We will then support those ninja clans who do not have the blood inheritance limit to target the blood inheritance limit families. The most dangerous life-threatening tasks will be handed over to the blood inheritance limit families to gradually weaken their power."
"Then put all the blame that many bloodline limited families should not bear on the heads of those bloodline limited families."
"In this case, whether it is Neji-kun or Hinata, the eldest lady of the Hyuga clan..."
"Has your destiny changed?"
When Shiro's words fell into Ningci's ears, they were like thunder crashing down from Ningci's ears.
He looked at Bai next to him in shock.
There is a sense of immediacy that is chilling.
If that kind of thing really happened in Konoha Village, then the Hyuga clan would not be able to talk about clans and branch families, nor would they be able to talk about caged birds.
Because at that time, the Hyuga clan would definitely become a very downtrodden ninja clan.
It may even be on the verge of extinction!
"Destiny has always been in people's hands! Neji-kun."
"Ah, I can't hold it in anymore."
Shiro wiped some tears from his face and said to Neji, "Let's go to the bathroom together?"
Neji was in a daze.
He actually followed.
The toilets in the ninja school are naturally divided into male and female toilets. Neji, who was worried, instinctively wanted to go into the men's toilet. But he found that Bai in front of him actually walked in first.
Neji immediately took Shiro's hand, and under Shiro's puzzled gaze, he pointed to the toilet sign.
"This is the men's room."
Neji pointed to the side again: "The women's restroom is over there."
Later, he discovered that his action was somewhat inappropriate.
He quickly let go of his hand.
Bai suddenly realized and laughed. He walked into the men's room and said calmly: "Ningji-kun... you have misjudged 'destiny' again. I am a boy! I am nine years old this year, and I may be better than you, Neji-kun..." It’s even bigger!”
Ningji: "..."
…
at the same time.
Konoha Village, on a street.
despair! despair! despair!
The sound of a simple guide stick hitting the ground was quite slight. Shisui was looking for Whitebeard alone.
He knew from Kakashi's mouth where Whitebeard was in Konoha.
Although he no longer had a pair of eyes, Shisui still relied on his memory of the various streets of Konoha Village, and then groped forward in that direction bit by bit.
Of course, you will inevitably ask some passers-by on the road.
After all, memories can be fallible.
"Hey! That guy in front! The Uchiha Guards are on business! Get out of the way! I'm calling you! Are you deaf? Get out of my way!"
At this moment, Shisui felt someone push him from behind, and it was very hard.
If Shisui wasn't a Jounin of Konoha.
He probably sat down on the ground.
Although his eyes were blind, Shisui could still feel several people passing by him.
At this time, Shisui suddenly stretched out a hand.
He put a hand on someone's shoulder, making the member of the Uchiha clan guard stunned for a moment.
The other party turned around in disbelief, seemingly confused. Who dared to stop the Uchiha clan guard?
At first glance, he turned out to be a blind man!
Shisui had already used the transformation technique when he went out today, transforming himself into a very ordinary middle-aged man.
With his level of transformation skills, it would be difficult for ninjas below the Jonin level to see it.
Unless you have the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan.
"Article 13 of Article 5 of the "Konoha Uchiha Guard Regulations" - During the execution of missions, Uchiha clan ninjas must not disturb civilians excessively, regardless of whether the mission is urgent or not, let alone use the name of 'performing missions' Walking through the market with swagger. If there is any violation, the penalty will be 1,000 taels and a minor demerit will be recorded."
Shisui, who had a middle-aged face, spoke out the Uchiha Guard Regulations in a very calm tone.
"Have the Uchiha Clan's Guards begun to disobey this regulation? Who is currently in charge of the Guards?"
Finally, Shisui added.
"...Hmph!" A member of the Uchiha clan who was pulled by Shisui slapped Shisui's arm away without politeness: "A blind man actually knows the regulations of the Uchiha Guards well?"
When he looked at Shisui, his expression was slightly annoyed, as if his self-esteem had been broken.
The member of the Uchiha clan sneered with a somewhat malicious tone: "So what if I broke the rules? How about you punish me? How dare a mere ordinary civilian speak big words here? The three of us are noble Uchiha!"
"Blind man, you should be glad that I, Uchiha Ami, am in a good mood today, otherwise I would have arrested you and put you in the Konoha prison!"
Uchiha Gan reached out and patted Shisui's face.
Even the force used was not small, and it made crisp sounds of "pop", "pop", and "pop".
"Get away as far as you can! You meddling blind man!"
A teasing smile appeared on Uchiha Gan's lips.
The slight pain coming from his face did not change Shisui's expression. He just continued to talk to himself: "Article 7 of the second major article of the "Konoha Uchiha Guard Regulations" - Uchi Members of the Wave Guard are not allowed to use the power of the guard to coerce Konoha civilians and ninjas from the same village without authorization. Violators will be fined 3,000 taels and recorded a minor offense."
"Hey!" Another member of the Uchiha clan's guard next to him interrupted: "You guy, if you don't want to be hospitalized, shut up immediately. Gan is not a good-tempered person."
"Article 11 of the first major article of the "Konoha Uchiha Guard Regulations" - Uchiha Guard members shall not intentionally harm Konoha civilians or fellow village ninjas. Violators will be fined 15,000 taels and detained in Konoha Prison for 10 days .”
When he said this, the expressions of the three Uchiha clan ninjas had become particularly gloomy.
Because Shisui unceremoniously told them one by one the regulations they violated.
Moreover, they did not listen to their warnings and reminders.
In their eyes, it was undoubtedly a deliberate provocation.
Before they could say anything, Shisui continued: "One of you is named Uchiha Gan, so the other two... should be Uchiha Fumi, and Uchiha Cui. I remember you, a year ago , you were hospitalized after being beaten by Whitebeard, and now it seems that you are all discharged."
Shisui even revealed the dark history of these three people.
And what Shisui said next involves some taboos.
"I am quite impressed by you, because you three are the main fighting faction among the younger generation of the Uchiha clan. Your father is an elder of the Uchiha clan, and that elder is a more extreme person than you. The main war faction."
The verbal confrontation between these four people on the street...
It caused the surrounding Konoha civilians to retreat.
After all, not everyone dares to provoke the Uchiha Guards.
"You guy..." Uchiha Cui realized that something was wrong with this blind man: "You are definitely not an ordinary blind man! Who are you?"
Uchiha Gan, Uchiha Fumi, and Uchiha Cui quickly exchanged glances.
They involuntarily surrounded Shisui.
"Me? I'm a dead person."
Shisui showed a smile, a smile that was a little cunning and a little light-hearted: "Why don't you call me Uchiha Madara?"
"Asshole!" Uchiha Gan's eyes widened.
"You bastard are playing tricks on the Uchiha Guards!"
If he claims to be Uchiha Madara, doesn't that mean he claims to be the ancestor of the Uchiha clan?
If Shisui said this a little more rudely.
That's a dirty word.
"Asshole! I don't care who you blind man is! Damn you, you dare to insult the ancestor of the Uchiha clan! You will stay in Konoha Prison for the rest of your life!"
Uchiha wanted to raise his foot and push Shisui to the ground.
But he didn't expect that the guide stick in Shisui's hands was actually faster.
The guiding stick that thrust out instantly hit Uchiha Gan's abdomen, making Uchiha Gan's eyes widen.
Uchiha Gan covered his abdomen, fell to his knees, and kept retching.
He lost his combat effectiveness in just an instant.
"sweet!!!"
"sweet!!!"
This scene immediately shocked Uchiha Fumi and Uchiha Cui.
But before the two of them could take action, Shisui threw out two shurikens.
A shuriken flew past Fumi Uchiha's neck, scratching the skin of his neck, and a little blood spilled from his neck.
Another shuriken hit Uchiha Choi's Konoha forehead protector.
One side of the shuriken sharply penetrated Konoha's forehead protector.
The skin on Uchiha Cui's forehead was pierced, and a stick of blood slowly slid down from the inside of Uchiha Cui's Konoha forehead protector.
The overflowing cold sweat made their backs wet.
Shisui tapped the ground gently with his guide stick, passed over the three people who were so frightened that they were motionless, and spoke in a calm tone: "It is precisely because there are people like you in Uchiha that the two 'Peace' A word is at stake."
"You who have saved a small life, cherish this kind of peace! Konoha and Uchiha do not have to be on opposite sides. The word 'peace' is very precious."
Shisui's departure was not very fast.
But no one dared to stop him.
Uchiha Gan was still retching and couldn't stand up.
Uchiha Fumi was touching the few drops of blood spilled from his neck, and his legs felt a little weak when he looked at Shisui's back.
Uchiha Cui couldn't help but secretly swallow his saliva.
They could only watch Shisui leave.
…
Half an hour later.
"It seems... we're here, if I remember correctly." Zhisui came to a new street, and the darkness in front of him made him unsure whether he was in the wrong place.
Unless you find someone to ask.
Just when such an idea came into Shisui's mind.
A familiar voice rang.
"It's such an advanced transformation technique, it almost deceived me. Fortunately, I saw a blind man and took a few extra glances."
Kisame sitting on the roof of a house.
Overlooking Shisui below.
"Uchiha..."
"Shisui!"
