Chapter 289 Frustrated
Unlike people who try every possible means to cover up their shortcomings, Hashirama Senju thinks it is normal to "not know" - after all, he is not a god.
I don’t know, I just don’t know.
What's there to not say?
"I don't know... is that so?"
Yu Yue's mouth twitched.
How should I put it? He spoke so loudly and so confidently, and I thought he was very confident.
I don't know why he speaks so confidently. Should I say he is worthy of being called Mr. Hashirama?
“ No one has done this before .”
Senju Hashirama said as he scratched the back of his head.
"After all, the only one who dared to sign the Nine-Tailed Fox as his summoning beast was Madara... Come to think of it, Madara, do you know anything?"
Uchiha Madara responded with a death stare.
——Do I look like I know?
Anyway, why are you asking me something you don't even know?
Senju Tobirama was even more direct.
“Nonsense!”
His eyebrows were twisted into knots.
"That's a tailed beast. Even if it lives in peace with humans now, it's still a monster that can destroy a country with just a wave of its hand."
It’s fine to think about doing business with the tailed beasts, but how can you attract the attention of the tailed beasts when your life is at stake?
Nonsense, this is so nonsense!
His gaze swept across Ugetsu and landed on Uchiha Shisui who was beside Ugetsu.
As an ordinary person, it is understandable that Miss Ugetsu cannot imagine the harm of the tailed beasts.
But as a ninja, doesn’t Uchiha Shisui know the importance of the matter?
No, that's not right.
Senju Tobirama's expression became even more solemn.
As an ordinary person, how could Miss Ugetsuki imagine the endless chakra of the greedy tailed beast?
This kind of opinion can only be raised by a ninja... and a ninja with a quick mind and sufficient strength.
As expected, Uchiha is still Uchiha no matter what the situation is?
Almost at the same time as he realized it, murderous intent directed at him was released from Senju Tobirama.
You can't relax even a little bit.
"But you can't deny that the tailed beasts that have existed for thousands of years are more reliable objects to bind to than ninjas."
Uchiha Shisui was not overwhelmed by Senju Tobirama's murderous intent. Instead, he took a step forward and took the initiative to meet him.
"So can we reach out to dangerous forces that should not belong to the human world? All dangers come from greed. Greed for forces that do not belong to you will only lead to disaster."
Senju Tobirama said sternly.
"Okay, okay."
Seeing that fire was about to break out on both sides, Senju Hashirama quickly stepped forward.
"Everyone is working hard for Miss Ugetsu's health, why are we quarreling first?"
"That's not for Miss Yu Yue's good at all!"
However, Senju Tobirama was already furious and spoke without thinking.
"As expected, all Uchiha are..."
"Mr. Tobirama, please be careful with your words."
This time, it was Ugetsu who interrupted him.
She no longer had her usual friendly and friendly demeanor, but instead looked at Senju Tobirama with a cold face.
"Maybe you think you're doing the right thing, but with all due respect."
Ugetsu stared at each other.
"That's just what you think is 'right'. As the person involved, I naturally have my own judgment."
"Besides, no matter whether my people are right or wrong, it is not your turn to criticize them."
This was probably the first time he was rejected so mercilessly. Senju Tobirama looked grim and for a moment he paused as if he didn't know how to react.
"…Look, I told you that you were going to be scolded, Tobirama."
"Shut up!"
It's already embarrassing to be criticized mercilessly, and you are asked to add insult to injury?
Uchiha Madara on the side curled up the corners of his mouth and smiled.
Although he was not the type to gloat over other people's misfortunes, he was still happy to see Senju Tobirama being humiliated.
It’s really cool.
It's high time someone treated his arrogance.
When he looked at Yu Yue again, in addition to the original respect, there was also a bit of admiration in his eyes.
As expected, he is the one who can control the Uchiha.
This is the kind of courage and determination one should have in words and deeds.
After being scolded by Yu Yue, Senju Tobirama also woke up from his state.
As mentioned before, he is already dead...matters concerning the living should be left to the living to judge.
but!
"No matter what, binding with a tailed beast is too dangerous. I cannot agree with it."
Even so, Senju Tobirama still wanted to express his opinion.
After all, this is a matter that concerns Yu Yue's future safety.
This time, even Hashirama Senju did not express his support directly.
“It’s definitely not safe.”
He stroked his chin.
"Let's not talk about whether the tailed beasts will agree or not, just talk about how you are going to deal with the violent chakra of the tailed beasts."
Although there may indeed be some personal bias in this, the fact that the chakra of the tailed beasts is not exactly the same as that of humans - at least it is not something that humans can handle casually is an objective fact.
Perhaps if the tailed beasts allow it, this power could become mild... but that's just 'maybe'.
No one knows what the actual situation is, and no one knows whether this situation can continue to be stable.
If you are in a decisive battle, there is nothing wrong with taking a gamble.
But what they want now is peace, and for Miss Yu Yue to be able to live a long and healthy life.
Therefore, even people like Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, who were very bold, no one dared to respond.
Uchiha Shisui also calmed down at this time.
"…I'm sorry Miss Ugetsu. I was inconsiderate."
He only considered that the tailed beasts could survive for thousands of years, but forgot that the reason they could survive for so long was because they were essentially different from humans.
The boy looked unusually depressed.
Rather than being like a cat that has been scolded, it is more like a dog that knows it has made a mistake.
And it's a large dog.
"It's fine."
Ugetsu shook his head, then raised his hand to touch the dog... to touch his soft, curly hair.
“You are also trying to find a solution.”
Moreover, he told himself what he thought was the best method, and Yu Yue felt that this could not be considered wrong.
Even though this method is not that safe.
However, Uchiha Shisui could not easily forgive himself.
"No, I didn't make a rational judgment and almost put Miss Yu Yue in danger. This was a serious mistake on my part."
“…I cannot forgive you.”
Uchiha Shisui even felt his hands and feet were cold, and he was also afraid:
If the first and second generation adults had not raised any objections and instead allowed their shallow and naive opinion to be passed.
He couldn't imagine what the outcome would be.
If Miss Ugetsu really got into an accident because of this… he would never be able to forgive himself even if he died.
“It’s not that
It’s serious.”
Senju Hashirama quickly comforted him.
"Who hasn't made mistakes? If you deserve to die just because you make a mistake, then no one would be able to survive."
Even Hashirama Senju himself made many mistakes.
"Right Madara."
Uchiha Madara:?
Why are you asking me at this time?
However, he also agreed with Hashirama Senju's opinion that it was just an immature proposal and not a serious enough crime.
But Uchiha Shisui himself couldn't get around this problem.
He still felt that his immature proposal almost harmed the most important person to him.
But Senju Tobirama still habitually adds insult to injury at this time:
"So Uchiha..."
"Tobirama!"
"Mr. Tobirama!"
As soon as he said this, he was scolded by the two of them in unison.
Senju Tobirama, who had never received such a series of rebuttals in his life or after his death, shrank his neck.
What are you doing?
The Uchiha junior brought up such an immoral idea and couldn't he say a few words?
"Let's wait a little longer about the binding."
After scolding Senju Tobirama, Yu Yue turned around and patted Uchiha Shisui on the back, then grabbed his arm and walked out.
"Let's go calm down first."
"Go ahead, go ahead."
Senju Hashirama waved to the two of them.
Anyway, things have come to this point, and one or two more days won’t make any difference.
It’s Tobirama.
Even though they were all dead, he still wanted to say a few words.
The Uchiha kid's opinions might be a little radical, but they are well-intentioned.
But you, as soon as you open your mouth, say that others are bad... Is this what an elder should say?
Besides, it's already this time and you still have this attitude.
No, I have to talk to Tobirama properly.
"Are you calming down a bit?"
In a less crowded place, Yu Yue handed the drink in her hand to the still dejected boy.
If people who knew him saw this, they would be shocked.
After all, this is Uchiha Shisui.
He went to the battlefield at a young age.
No matter what troublesome things or difficult enemies he encounters, he can handle them with ease, which is an admirable existence.
Would he actually have such an expression?
And the facts have proved that not only can he do it, but it is also very difficult for him to get out of it.
"Yes...I'm sorry to trouble Miss Ugetsu again."
He took the drink from Yu Yue and forced a smile on his face.
But even if he smiled, he looked very lost.
Obviously, he has figured it out, but he still can't accept it emotionally... or maybe he just hasn't figured it out at all. He just pretends to be fine so as not to worry others.
Ugetsu shrugged and sat down next to him.
After a while, he suddenly said, "If you think about it from another perspective, if at a critical moment, there is a choice that can save your life but is not guaranteed to be 100% successful, would you agree with me choosing this method?"
"certainly."
Uchiha Shisui said without hesitation.
It's a critical moment, so I must be used, right?
In this situation, what is there to say that is 100% or not 100% correct? Of course, as long as there is a method, use it to your heart's content.
"That's it."
"That's different."
Uchiha Shisui said with rare excitement.
"This isn't a dangerous moment where I have to make a decision..."
Realizing his excitement, he quickly tried to calm down.
"It's just that I was too arrogant. I thought I had a great idea, so I looked down on other people's options..."
He should have noticed earlier that others must have their own reasons and considerations for not turning their attention to the tailed beasts.
Even considering the existence of the 'jinchūriki', they should have studied the chakra of the tailed beasts in the past.
He is too arrogant.
Because I have been on the right path all these years, I became arrogant.
"And you, Yu Yue, almost put your life in danger."
His voice got lower and lower as he spoke.
——Here it comes again, the look of a puppy that has made a mistake and is drenched in the rain.
At times like this, you should give him a pat on the head.
As she thought this, she really stretched out her hand.
The boy's hair is fluffy and soft, which makes him look very special among the Uchiha people whose hair is mostly long and straight black.
Black long straight hair certainly has its own charm, but this fluffy, curly and soft touch also has a different kind of healing effect...
"Ms. Ugetsu?"
Ringing in the ears
The young man's helpless voice was heard.
"Oh, sorry."
This time, Yu Yue has to apologize.
Because the touch was so healing, she kept touching it without realizing it.
Like rubbing cats and dogs... ahem, of course Uchiha Shisui can't know about this.
"Well, anyway, calm down now, right?"
"Well... I heard that caressing can bring some comfort to people."
So it’s not that I’m addicted to this feeling.
"yes……"
In fact, it was not a big deal, but Uchiha Shisui couldn't get out of it and got stuck in a dead end.
And that's often how things are in the world.
Many things that seem small and insignificant may be like the last straw that breaks the camel's back for some people.
This is especially true for some people who are easily stuck in a dead end and unable to get out of trouble.
——Of course, from another perspective, this also proves the importance of Ugetsu to Uchiha Shisui.
To be able to make a person who is usually regarded as an 'Uchiha outlier' take the extremes that only an Uchiha would go to... well, it is really very important.
"I……"
"Ah, isn't this Miss Ugetsu?"
Uchiha Shisui was about to speak again when a voice rang out. !
