Naruto: If I ask you to kill Sasuke, you will become a succubus?

Chapter 221 Night Talk

Gaara did not miss Chiyo's whisper. He immediately put his hand down and focused entirely on the word, "Price?"

"Ningji," Shiro asked, "Does Asano look abnormal?"

Neji: "The Byakugan isn't omnipotent. I can only see that there's nothing obviously wrong with her chakra veins... For the rest, I can only wait until I meet her and do further checks."

Gaara finally asked the question: "Ningji, why don't you open your Byakugan?"

Neji: "...I have my reasons."

But lying on the tatami, Gaara became more and more awake, and remembered more and more things: "How is the rooting going?"

"We successfully recovered him." Bai said, "In return for Konoha's reinforcements, we plan to return Qugen to Konoha after rescuing Chaolu."

Gaara frowned, "Will Chaolu agree to this?"

Bai Dao: "If she wants to stay and get her roots, then we can change the conditions."

The Hidden Mist Village said in front of the Konoha ninjas that the agreement they had previously promised might not be valid, but no one in Konoha questioned or objected.

Gaara looked at the ceiling and said, "I was defeated by Hoshigaki Kisame... His sword is the Samehada that Zabuza mentioned... I knew it could absorb chakra, but I didn't expect it could absorb so much..."

"Don't think too much." Bai Wen said, "The most important thing for you now is to have a good rest."

Gaara looked at him and wondered if Asaka liked this gentle look more, should he learn more from Shiro?

……

I took a shower and returned to my room, where the bedding was already made out.

This should have been laid out by the boss lady, right?

This should be the case, but I still can't help but imagine how Uchiha Madara makes the bed.

Uchiha Madara, who controlled the Mizukage and bloodily ruled the Hidden Mist Village for more than ten years, probably made his bed no differently from an ordinary person.

He was not in the room, probably because he had gone to take a shower.

Uchiha Madara takes a bath...

Uchiha Madara also takes a bath.

Sure enough, no matter how powerful or mysterious a person seems, as long as you interact with him/her long enough in daily life, you will gradually realize that he/she is just an ordinary human being.

Come to think of it, isn't Itachi-sensei the same?

He usually looks mysterious and distant, but if he gets caught in the rain, he will become wet and have to change clothes and take a shower, and he will be distressed to find a place to shelter from the rain.

However, his eyesight must have deteriorated a lot now. Can he see clearly when he is taking a shower alone?

When a person moves, will he squint his eyes like an old grandfather?

Is Itachi refusing to wear glasses in order to hide his weakness?

Or are the glasses useless for the side effects of the Sharingan?

I snuggled into the bed, wrapped in the dry and fluffy quilt, feeling very comfortable.

However, I felt bad when I thought that I could rest so comfortably while Neji and the others might have to be on guard all the time because they were worried about me.

Suddenly someone asked me, "What are you thinking about?"

I answered subconsciously, "I was thinking about Itachi-sensei."

Then I realized that it was Ban who came back.

I looked closely at his hair; it had been blow-dried.

So he took a shower, dried his hair, and put on a mask before coming back? That's a hassle.

But after all, if a person wearing a mask like this wants to live with others without taking off the mask, there must be various inconveniences. Can Madara actually endure it...

He should also be well aware that the longer he stays with me, the more information he will reveal, but why does he still stay with me?

This room and this quilt too.

I felt very comfortable, but... was it necessary for Uchiha Madara to make me so comfortable? It felt as if he was taking good care of me.

Or did he arrange it unintentionally, and the service level of this hotel is just so high?

Is this all because of Lin? Or is Uchiha Madara actually a gentle and caring person by nature?

People of the Uchiha clan seem to have two faces: they are cold and indifferent to outsiders, but sincere to their families.

Itachi was like this to Sasuke. After Sasuke knew I had the Sharingan, he was also very gentle to me. Uchiha Madara... he also said before that he acknowledged that I was Uchiha.

Does he treat me as a family member?

As both of us are Uchiha, Itachi's bloodline should be purer than mine, so why can't he and Madara develop a family-like friendship?

Uchiha Madara's voice was a little unhappy: "Why do you want to think about him?"

I didn’t plan to explain to him: “Then I don’t want to do it anymore.”

He heard my perfunctory response, made a "tsk" sound, and walked to the next room.

As long as we close the paper door, we are in different rooms.

Is it possible that he will take off the mask?

"Don't do anything stupid." Uchiha Madara suddenly said, "For example, try to assassinate me while I'm asleep."

"Ah, you reminded me. I hadn't thought of that before."

He snorted and closed the paper door.

"Go to sleep. You must be very tired."

I asked, "Are you tired?"

"how?"

"I took a nap on your back this afternoon, but I'm not sleepy now."

"so what?"

"So...how about we play a game?"

"what game?"

"Let's each tell you one of the worst things we have done with the Sharingan."

"..."

"Or, can we each tell one of the best things we have done with the Sharingan?"

"What do you want to do?"

"I want to get to know you better."

"You might as well just say you're trying to get information."

"I already knew the information about your Sharingan, didn't I? It's an alternate dimension! So, I really just want to get to know you better. What kind of person are you? I'm very curious."

Uchiha Madara was silent for a while, then asked, "What's the worst thing you've done with your Sharingan?"

"You will definitely say what I say, right? You won't let me say it. You told me you didn't agree to let me say it. Are you kidding me?"

"let me consider it."

Seeing his attitude, I confirmed again in my heart that Uchiha Madara didn't seem to be that smart.

I already know that Uchiha Madara once controlled the Third Mizukage Yagura Karuta for a long time and exercised tyranny in the Hidden Mist Village.

But he didn't say this, instead he concealed the issue and avoided it.

That is to say, he has done worse things than this, and maybe many, many worse things.

In fact, he might actually be thinking about the answer to my question, and then find that he can't choose which one to say.

To a certain extent, I already know the answer - although I don't know what Uchiha Madara did specifically, he must have used the Sharingan to do a lot of bad things.

This answer makes me feel a little heavy.

It was like that day when I happily went to find Deidara, only to find him happily preparing to destroy an innocent town.

Is it because I felt like I was in love with them, but then I realized that they were not worthy of my love, and I mourned my feelings?

It doesn't seem to be the case.

Because I realized that the person I like can't go the same way as me.

I can only watch us walking on different paths, drifting further and further away, and I know that I will lose them eventually.

"spot……"

"explain."

"In fact, you could have made my life more miserable, more miserable, and more desperate... So, have you actually been taking care of me all along?"

"You think I'm very good to you?" Uchiha Madara's voice came from behind the paper door: "Didn't you say that I can't be considered good to you at all. There are many people who treat you better than me, right?"

"Well... But those who are nice to me, wouldn't hurt me anyway. But you're the only one who could hurt me, but doesn't do it. Is it because of Lin?"

"..."

"Love...what does it feel like...you've been in love with Lin for so many years, do you miss her?"

"enough."

"When you think about her, it will be painful, right? But, because she is the one you love, is it okay to feel pain?"

He said coldly: "I've said enough."

"I don't mean anything else. I just think... it would be great if Lin could know such pure and deep love. If sincere efforts can be reciprocated... if both the lover and the loved can be happy... that would be great."

After hearing what I said, Uchiha Madara was silent for a while, and asked me in a complicated tone: "What about you?"

"I?"

"Are you in love with someone? Itachi?"

"Love... The book says that there are countless kinds of feelings between people, but for the sake of convenience, people simply classify them into family, friendship and love. I have never really understood the difference between family, friendship and love."

"Then you haven't figured it out yet."

"why?"

"Because once you fall in love with someone, you'll understand what's going on all of a sudden."

I wondered, “What will happen?”

"I want to look at her all the time, touch her, be closer to her than anyone else, and be the only one for her. I can lose my mind and control myself for this."

"Losing your mind and losing control?" I was a little scared: "...It doesn't sound like a good thing."

Uchiha Madara laughed softly, "So, you are still a little kid who has not yet opened his mind."

"spot……"

"Are you done yet?"

"last question."

"That last one, right?"

"Ah."

He sighed, "Go ahead."

"...Under what circumstances would you decide to kill me?"
