Chapter 102 You Are My Light

When the exploding chakra scattered, when the attacker died suddenly, and when the ninja sword that was shining with cold light completed its mission and shattered, the sea water gradually returned to calm. If it weren't for the blood that kept flowing out of Ye Shan's mouth, Yamashiro Chen would even think that everything that had just happened was just his illusion.

The Uchiha secret high-quality hemostatic drugs and pain-relieving powders that were treasured by the outside world were sprinkled on the tattered wounds as if they were free, but were immediately washed away by the blood and could not play their intended effect.

Shancheng Chen lost his usual composure and kept sprinkling the medicine powder. His hands stopped shaking, but gradually his body began to shake.

"Damn it, damn it, stop bleeding! Stop, stop, stop right there!"

Shancheng Chen angrily threw the medicine bottle open, creating a small ripple on the sea surface before sinking, just like his panicked heart.

As a battle-hardened ninja, even if he was not a medical ninja, Yamashiro Chen knew clearly what it meant to a person when the bleeding from a wound could not be stopped.

Ye Shan pulled his mouth hard, as if he wanted to say something, but the blood rushing up from his throat stopped him from moving. When he thought that he would die here, Ye Shan felt panic and sadness in his heart, but soon his reason returned to him.

Even if you have to die, you should die with dignity and meaning.

“Stop it…”

Amid the gurgling sound of blood, Ye Shan's three words came out with difficulty, successfully breaking the silence.

The dazed Tsunade came back to her senses, not caring about her bloody hands and the piercing pain, and used medical ninjutsu to cover the wound. Suddenly, a green light came into Yamashiro Tatsuya's eyes.

Yes, even if Uchiha's medicine does not work, even if the heart may be pierced, the best medical ninja in the entire ninja world is by his side, and his captain can still be saved!

Hope made Shancheng Chen's body stop shaking, as if a dying man in the desert encountered a refreshing oasis, or a drowning man grabbed a weeping willow hanging over the water.

"Hahaha, the captain is really blessed. With the medical saint Tsunade here, it's hard for him to die. Hahaha."

The panic, fear, and despair in his heart found an outlet under Tsunade's medical ninjutsu. At this moment, Yamashiro Tatsuya actually laughed out loud like a neurotic, especially when he saw the bleeding from the wound stopped.

"Yes, this is the strength of Lady Tsunade. This mere wound is no problem at all. You are really lucky, Captain."

Ye Shan's pale cheeks flushed with red, and his originally dim eyes lit up, which made Shan Chengchen very excited. He walked back and forth on the sea excitedly, splashing waves.

But when his eyes moved away from Ye Shan and fell on Tsunade, he was stunned again.

Tsunade's face looked very bad at this time, terribly pale. Shancheng Chen could understand all this. After all, she was injured, and it was normal for her to have these symptoms. But why were there tears in her eyes? Why were her lips trembling? Why were there two streams of water on her face?

No, this is not water, but tears! ?

Shan Chengchen, who had taken two steps away, felt as if struck by lightning. He staggered forward and wanted to take a closer look, but he forgot to attach chakra to the bottom of his feet. He stepped into empty air and fell into the sea.

"Gululu..."

The choking sea water seeped into Yamashiro Tatsuya's ears, eyes, nostrils, mouth, and throat. The physiological reaction caused his body to struggle instinctively, but his eyes were fixed on Tsunade's beautiful face, refusing to move an inch away.

The body that lost the support of chakra gradually sank into the sea. Yamashiro Chen stretched out his bleeding right hand and grabbed towards Ye Shan, trying to grab something.

The sunlight refracts from the sea surface into the sea. Looking down from the sea surface, all you can see is a little bit of blue and endless darkness. Even the sunlight, which is hot enough to illuminate everything, has places it cannot reach. The dark scenery under the sea surface is a clear proof of this. But looking up from the bottom of the sea, in addition to the sea water, there is also bright light.

Yamashiro Tatsu's eyes moved away from Tsunade and were on his captain. I don't know if it was a coincidence or a necessity, a beam of sunlight fell on Ye Shan, and from Yamashiro Tatsu's perspective, it was as if the whole person was as bright and dazzling as a luminous body.

“Is this light?”

Light, yes, time. This beam of light is not big, not even bright, but it is undoubtedly light.

Shancheng Chen became excited, and quickly adjusted his body and swam out, coming to Ye Shan's side. He reached out and touched his body, his eyes fixed on his face, unable to take in anything else.

Yamashiro Tatsu knew the village's evaluation of Hayama, and also knew the comments from some ninjas behind the scenes that were enough to destroy a person. It was nothing more than that Hayama was opportunistic on the battlefield, cowardly, had no bottom line as a ninja in his heart, and had no trace of the will of fire in his mind. He was a complete opportunist and betrayer. This kind of comment became more and more rampant after Hatake Sakumo died and after Hayama turned to the Uchiha clan, and it became more and more intense, even to the point of being blatant.

At home, Shancheng Chen heard his beloved sister nagging him more than once to draw a line between him and Shancheng Chen. Even his mother repeatedly hinted to him that he should be able to judge people and be cautious in making friends.

Whenever he walked by on the street, the ninjas he knew in the past would always ignore him and not even say hello. When they met ninjas they didn't know, they would inevitably call him a lackey, a waste, or a traitor. Even ordinary people would cower and say a few words to him.

In real life, he has not been able to complete his wedding and fulfill his mother's wish. Every matchmaker has ignored him, and every woman he has been able to chat with has inexplicably cut off contact with him.

Shancheng Chen knew why all this happened, and he also knew that he had become the type of person he hated the most when he was a child. Every night when it was quiet, his former teammates would jump out of his dreams and accuse him of betraying the will of fire and failing to live up to their sacrifice, which made him very upset.

Regarding these things and these people, Shancheng Chen just wants to say one thing: Fuck you.

When he was on the battlefield and couldn't sleep because of fear, where were these companions who always claimed to be the Will of Fire? When he was cold in the rainstorm in the Rain Country, did these companions give him an extra piece of warm clothing? When he was surrounded by the enemy and in a desperate situation, where were those so-called companions?

They all seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth, and were indifferent to his situation. The village pretended not to know and instead asked him to brave the difficulties and die for the Will of Fire. They even ridiculously stated that death was not scary and that their name would be engraved in the memorial garden.

It's really ironic that the only difficulty in life is death, and no one wants to die.

Shancheng Chen wants to live, wants to take care of his mother until her death, wants his sister to marry in style, wants to drink a cup of hot tea every day when he wakes up, wants to light a cigarette comfortably after meals, wants to lie in bed and stare blankly after a nap, wants to enjoy flowers in spring, eat ice cream in summer, sleep more in autumn, and eat hot pot in winter.

He doesn't want to die, he wants to live.

The reason why he could survive until now in the cannibalistic ninja world was not because of luck, nor his own strength, but only because of the person he was touching right now - Baiyun Yeshan.

Even if everyone in the village denies you, excludes you, and hates you, I will still stand by your side without hesitation.

If one day, everyone pulls out weapons and wants to kill you, I will fight you to the end without wavering, even if the consequence is that I will never be able to experience all the beautiful things in the world again.

No matter how others see you, you are the only light in my heart. It is you who dispel all the dark clouds in my heart and point out a bright path for me.

This is my choice, Yamashiro Tatsuno, and it is also my ninja way.

You are my light, always have been, now are, and always will be.
