Chapter 53 Watching You Walk Into the Future

It was also that mission that made Yue Le determined to let them stand in the sun...

..........

"This mission is to kill the third person in the Moon Country Silver Moon Consortium, the Jiuli Qiao clan, regardless of gender or age."

There was a bone-chilling chill in Orochimaru's eyes, as if it could freeze the air around him.

This is not only a bold attempt, but also a severe test of the character of Yue Le and others. You know, such a cruel task of genocide is simply unheard of and unheard of for Yue Le and the other two.

"Yes!" He responded three times in a row, his tone obviously much heavier than usual.

Orochimaru stared at the people in front of him coldly. He was a completely different person at this moment. He did not take the initiative to take this mission!

Instead, Danzo personally approached him and explicitly designated Yuele and others to carry out the mission. Danzo needed to verify that Yuele could complete the mission, or in other words, Danzo was testing whether Yuele was suitable for the Root.

But Orochimaru didn't care about it. He was even a little curious about Yue Le's choice.

When his eyes swept over Kushina, Orochimaru revealed an indescribable helplessness in his eyes. She would not show the slightest mercy in killing the enemy, but what if it was an unarmed child?

Kushina's eyes seemed to be somewhat evasive, she was not sure if she could kill those children, women and children. However, since the mission had been accepted, unless there were special circumstances, there was no way she could return it for no reason.

Under the leadership of Orochimaru, the team quickly set off and headed for the Kingdom of the Moon. They were exhausted along the way, but everyone was worried, not knowing what fate was waiting for them.

......

The Kingdom of the Moon, adjacent to the Kingdom of Flowers and the Kingdom of Dew, is home to many so-called sorcerers. However, in the eyes of other countries, they are just a copy of ninjas, and sorcerers do not cultivate their bodies, but only their magic.

After all, it is not mainstream and it is difficult to be accepted by the upper class.

This time, it was the fifth figure of the Silver Moon Group, Shakamu, who spent a large sum of money to find the root from the black market and asked them to assassinate the Jiuli clan.

The Silver Moon Group, the largest group in the Kingdom of the Moon, was jointly established by seven families. After that, the families worked together and gradually made some achievements.

But as time went by, the originally close-knit families gradually fell apart due to their own interests, especially now that the original founders have passed away one after another, and the friendship between them has further disappeared.

This generation's Kuri family head Kuri Akatsuki and Shaka family head Sagamu both fell in love with a kunsha (a Japanese female performer who specializes in traditional performances), and Kuri Akatsuki, with his family's stronger strength than Sagamu, finally won the beauty.

However, Shakamu was a vindictive and petty person, and coupled with the recent dispute between the Jiuli family and the Shaka family over a newly discovered mineral vein, he got carried away and sent people directly to the black market.

The result was that Orochimaru and his crew arrived in the Moon Kingdom.

When Danzo first received this commission, he was a little confused. No, the Kuri clan had to be destroyed just because of this?

So fierce?

After a thorough investigation, it was discovered that the Shaka family had long been hollowed out by the largest family in the consortium. This family was a family of sorcerers and possessed more miraculous powers than other families.

Even Sagamu was a puppet supported by the First Family, but he didn't know it yet. Under the instigation of his subordinates, he did such an extreme thing.

The original reason was simply that the minerals in the ore veins discovered by the two families had a soul-destroying effect, posing a threat to the warlocks of the first family, but the two families did not know it yet.

In order to nip the threat in the bud, the First Family mobilized their own puppets, which changed the fate of Jiuli's family.

......

"what--!"

"Pfft——!"

"boom--!"

"Boom--!"

......

"Whoa whoa whoa-!"

"Bad guys! You are bad guys!"

"Mom! What's wrong with you? Mom!"

......

"Teacher...really, I have to..."

When Kushina saw the crying child lying on her mother, she was deeply conflicted for a moment.

Orochimaru's eyes were cold, without a trace of emotion.

"Let's do it."

"Don't forget our mission."

Holding the kunai tightly in her hand, Kushina's knuckles turned slightly white due to excessive force, and her face was unusually pale, as if all the blood had been lost.

Not only her, but also Hyuga Hisawa who was standing beside her had a very ugly expression at the moment. They originally thought that they had completed so many tasks and their hearts were strong enough to complete the tasks even if they forced themselves, and they could become qualified ninjas, but the scene before their eyes made them a little numb.

Those little children, who were only a few years old, with fear and hatred in their eyes, seemed to have no ability to fight back. However, it was precisely these weak lives that put Kushina and Hinata Hisaha in an unprecedented dilemma - facing these powerless children, they were unable to do anything!

......

That night, Kushina and Hinata Hisaha stood there in a daze as if they were under a spell of immobilization, their eyes empty and lifeless, with expressions of disbelief on their faces.

They just stood there, unable to bring themselves to take action, and watched Yue Le waving the Tang sword in his hand expressionlessly.

One knife, one knife,...

Every swing of the knife will bring a burst of blood.

He ruthlessly killed every target within his sight, no matter if they were men, women, old people or children; no matter whether these people were capable of resisting or not, Yue Le did not hesitate at all.

Amidst the wailing, cursing and pleas for mercy, the Tang sword in Yue Le's hand never stopped reaping lives. Blood kept dripping from the tip of the sword, staining the ground beneath his feet red.

The clothes on his body had already been soaked with blood, as if they had turned into a bloody shirt.

One hundred and three...

This represents one hundred and three originally alive lives.

There are six children among them, the youngest of whom was born not long ago and is the youngest child in Jiuli Qiao's younger brother's family.

That day, Kushina and Hinata Hisaha, who thought their hearts were as hard as steel, stood there and vomited continuously, as if they wanted to vomit out all their internal organs.

In fact, they had not eaten for several hours, but now their stomachs were churning like a river, accompanied by waves of twitching and cramping, and this spasm spread quickly from the back to the coccyx like a tide.

They could never convince themselves that their weapons could not be swung at those young pupils. The annihilation of the clan was too much for Kushina and Hinata Hisahi to bear.

Since then, they fell into a long silence, and even did not talk to Yue Le for several days. Whenever they saw Yue Le, they would involuntarily avoid his gaze. Those pupils that slowly turned scarlet were like a pool of blood...

After this incident, Danzo made up his mind to arrange Yuele into the Root organization. After all, whether it was Yuele himself or Kushina and Hyuga Hisaha, this mission had already shown that they were not compatible with each other.

......

Looking at the bright moon hanging high in the night sky, Yue Le raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile. This bright moon was indeed out of reach, but when she looked at it, Yue Le felt an inexplicable sense of peace in her heart.

Mom...I will live well, no matter the cost...

Shaking his head, Yue Le didn't continue thinking about these things, just treating them as strange thoughts that came to him occasionally.

Orochimaru didn't say anything else. He thought carefully about the scene when he first met Yue Le and the words Yue Le had said to him during their time together.

At the beginning, Yue Le's language was undoubtedly a systematic other language, but strangely, after Yue Le refined the chakra, he slowly forgot that language. This discovery made everyone who knew about this very curious.

But no matter how we discussed it, there was no conclusion. In the end, it could only be attributed to the fact that Yue Le's memory was damaged and she selectively forgot those memories.

When the pupils become empty, the lights of thousands of homes that were originally clearly visible in front of the eyes gradually become blurred and unreal.

At this moment, Orochimaru seemed to travel through time and space and returned to a certain day in the past - the day when heavy rain was pouring down.

In the rain, a young child took the black dog's life without hesitation in order to survive.

And just one second before the stone was about to hit the black dog, Orochimaru felt a slight tremor in his heart, which was the perception from his own kind.

At that time, he knew that this child named Yue Le was destined to be a carnivore.

They all have cold blood, indomitable perseverance and an extreme desire for power.

"Keep moving forward towards your goal, Yue Le..."

“Stride forward fearlessly.”

Orochimaru raised his head slightly, staring at the silver moon hanging high in the night sky. The cold moon cast a cold light, like a layer of mysterious gauze covering the earth. He stood quietly, looking from afar, and unexpectedly felt an indescribable sense of sacredness.

Yue Le threw the last meatball in the bowl into his mouth and chewed it vigorously. As his mouth moved, his originally white teeth were dyed bright red by the juice of the meatball.

His mouth was stretched wide, revealing an odd yet childish smile. The scarlet red on his mouth was glowing faintly in the moonlight, which contrasted with the smile in his eyes, giving the whole person an indescribable temperament.

"Teacher...I will..."

Yue Le said softly, her voice was gentle but full of determination.

At this moment, the surrounding noise seemed to fade away, and only Orochimaru and Yue Le were left in the world. They were immersed in this tranquility, as if they had forgotten all their worries and disputes.

Orochimaru looked at Yue Le in front of him and couldn't help but wonder what kind of changes this child who was brought back from the heavy rain would bring to Konoha Village and the entire ninja world in the future?

He couldn't help but smile softly. He was always full of expectations for the future.

The future... the fruits of victory belong only to the living...

In this quiet night, Orochimaru and Yuele enjoyed this rare peace together. They may not be a master and apprentice in the traditional sense, but in each other's eyes, they are the one who can understand themselves and accompany them forward.

Like attracts like...

Well, little sir, let me watch you slowly walk towards the future...

I'm looking forward to...
