Chapter 219 Confessing Love

Thinking that the big boss had been lurking around him for so many years and acting as a good guy, Aokiji's breathing became rapid. It was not until Sarutobi Hiruzen reminded him that he came back to his senses.

"Aoji, are you okay? You suddenly sweated a lot on your face. Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Or is it because of the tailed beast in your body?"

"what?"

Aokiji raised his head and swallowed when he saw the kind expression of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

nothing……

I thought about just brushing it off casually, but considering that saying such words would attract the other person's attention, I swallowed it back and said instead: "I just felt a little emotional all of a sudden. Behind the seemingly calmness, there is such an undercurrent. move."

"I'm sorry about Uchiha Itachi..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice was full of apology: "This is my fault as the Hokage. If only I had reacted earlier. Maybe, maybe I wouldn't..."

Aoki closed his eyes and shook his head slowly, interrupting Hiruzen Sarutobi's further speech. His attitude was very reasonable: "Lord Hokage, you don't need to apologize. This is the choice made by Elder Itachi himself."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was very satisfied with this answer, and then he began to praise the deceased Elder Itachi: "For the peace of the village, he was willing to sacrifice his precious life. He was a true successor to the will of fire. "

"Yes, from now on, I will inherit his will, protect the family and the village for him."

Aokiji raised his arms and clenched his fists, and there was nothing but clarity in his answer: "I will not let anyone destroy the relationship between the Uchiha family and the village."

"If you can say that, I think Yuchi Izumoshita will also be pleased." Hiruzen Sarutobi said with a smile, "I want to hear what you should do next, okay?"

Qingzhi pursed his lips, thought about it seriously, and then gave a clear response: "Next, I will try my best to control the power of the tailed beast in my body, help the village win the war, and gain everyone's approval. .”

Hearing this textbook answer, Sarutobi Hiruzen showed recognition in his eyes and spoke highly of it: "Now you have inherited Itachi's will of fire and transformed into a true ninja."

Aoki was cautious in his words and deeds, and said modestly: "Hokage-sama really thinks too highly of me. I am still far from being a real ninja now."

Just when Sarutobi Hiruzen was thinking about how to guide Aokiha towards his own intention, Aokiji seemed to suddenly remember something and added an extra sentence: "Hokage-sama, I remember you just said that someone planned to destroy the relationship between Uchiha and the village. Yeah?"

"Yes."

Sarutobi Hiruzen keenly seized this opportunity, sighed, and pretended to be distressed: "I am ashamed to say that I have never thought of a good way to deal with this matter."

Qing Pheasant saw his difficulty: "Is it because my people have already had a rift with the village?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed and nodded.

Qingzhi covered his chest with one hand and volunteered: "If you can, please leave this task to me."

Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at him with a meaningful expression: "You?"

"Yes, I am a member of the Uchiha clan, and this task suits me very well." Qingzhi explained: "I can use this identity to find out the guy who is secretly causing trouble."

Zheng was worried about how to find an opportunity to lure Aokiji to this task, but he didn't expect that the other party would take the initiative to get involved. Sarutobi Hiruzen secretly rejoiced and played a trick of lust: "This can't be done, it's too dangerous. What if something happens to you? Unexpectedly, how can I face the dead Itachi with face in the future?"

"Please, I want to do something for the village and make up for the mistakes I made." Qing Zhi's eyebrows drooped, showing a look of self-blame.

Sarutobi Hiruzen comforted: "It's not your fault that this happened..."

Aoki looked guilty and moved his mouth: "But after all, Wuwei used my body to commit the crime."

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, as if he was forced to accept: "Okay, since you insist on doing this, I can't stop you, but you must pay attention to safety and don't be discovered."

"Many thanks."

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and said: "But I can tell you that once a ninja accepts a task, he cannot give up halfway. It's not like last time."

Bringing up the old matter again, Qingzhi smiled awkwardly: "I promise this won't happen this time."

"That's good." Sarutobi Hiruzen said seriously: "But before you carry out this mission, you must first learn to control the power of the tailed beast and prevent the power of the tailed beast in your body from going wild, otherwise everything will be in vain."

Aoki nodded and said seriously: "I will try my best to learn to control the Five-Tails. No, I will definitely control the Five-Tails and protect Konoha."

"I feel relieved when you say that." Sarutobi Hiruzen said intentionally or unintentionally: "But having said that, it would be great if you had the Sharingan. The Sharingan can control the power of the tailed beast. In this way, You will have more confidence in controlling the tailed beast."

md, this old guy is trying to trick me, don’t think I can’t tell.

Ever since he learned that he had been deceived by a scumbag, Aokiji now has no reservations about trusting anyone except Tsunade, and will be more or less reserved with other people.

Aoki followed his words and sighed: "As a member of the Uchiha clan, I did not awaken the Sharingan, but instead awakened the Blood Succession Limit of Ice Release. I am really ashamed to say it."

Sarutobi Hiruzen had a kind look on his face and comforted him: "Don't belittle yourself. You are still young. Maybe you will awaken the power of the Sharingan in the future."

Aoki waved his hand: "It can't be done. It's too difficult. I have already awakened the Ice Release. When I awaken the Sharingan, wouldn't I have the limit of double blood successors?"

"That's impossible to say." Sarutobi Hiruzen observed the expression on Aokiji's face quietly, trying to see something from it.

However, Qing Pheasant pretended to be very good and shrugged his shoulders.

Sarutobi Hiruzen blew out a smoke ring and used it as a dividing line to end the conversation: "Okay, I've delayed you for a long time, so just follow others and learn to control the rest of your life. The tailed beast’s place.”

Hearing this, Qing Zhi did not leave immediately. He lowered his eyes, nodded, and opened his mouth.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at him and said with a smile, "Do you have anything else to say?"

"Actually, before officially accepting this mission, I want Hokage-sama to agree to a request for me." At this point, Aokiji shook his head as if to correct this sentence, and then continued: "No, it's not so much a request. , actually this is my small personal request.”

Sarutobi Hiruzen said amusedly: "I'm just saying, why are you so enlightened all of a sudden? It turns out you have your own little thoughts."

Qing Zhi scratched his hair in embarrassment and smiled.

"Tell me, if it's too much, I can consider it at my discretion."

Aoki's eyes swayed, hesitating whether to speak: "Actually, it's about me and Tsunade..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked puzzled: "What happened between you and Tsunade?"

Pretend after pretense... Aokiji took a breath and gathered up his courage: "Actually, I have been in love with Tsunade recently..."

"Oh, let's fall in love..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a moment to react, and opened his eyes in surprise: "Hey, did you and Tsunade already have this kind of relationship? When did it happen?"
