Chapter 86 Sorry, Patriarch (please order first)
The cold wind howled, blowing up large fallen leaves.
The already very low temperature in the Memorial Monument area became even colder from this moment on.
After asking the question, Yuyi Xuanyue turned her head calmly.
Beside him, he saw a man wearing a gray-blue ninja uniform, with white-gray bandages covering his eyes, ears, to the back of his neck, and his head above the forehead, standing there with a complicated expression.
Hagoromo Dragonfly, or Flying Bamboo Dragonfly, is a Konoha chunin, a member of the intelligence analysis team, and once served as the invigilator of the chuunin exam. His immediate superior is Yamanaka Kaiichi.
This resume may not seem as dazzling as the Jonin's, but in the critical position of intelligence analysis, where he can have immediate access to intelligence inside and outside the village, he is undoubtedly deeply trusted by the Hokage.
The Flying Bamboo Dragonfly is also the most important identity among the hidden lines placed by the Hagoromo clan in Konoha.
The news of Hagoromo Genzuki's arrival in Konoha has been notified in advance to the hidden line of the Hagoromo clan in Konoha.
Ru Sosuke handed over his identity without any hesitation, even if it meant that he would never return to Konoha.
But the flying bamboo dragonfly is different.
Since this period of time, he has not taken the initiative to contact me.
In other words, he came, but when the time came, he retreated.
Hagoromo Xuanyue had already guessed what this meant, so she asked another question in a calm tone:
“Where is the Godaime Hokage now?”
Sure enough, the Flying Bamboo Dragonfly remained silent.
After a while, Feizhu Dragonfly sighed and finally said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Patriarch."
"The reason." Hagoromo Gengyue looked at Senju Hashirama's tombstone and said straightforwardly.
The expressions of guilt, panic, commemoration, relief, etc. kept flashing across Fei Zhu Dragonfly’s face.
After some recollection, he replied slowly and heavily in a jerky tone:
“My grandfather, my father, my mother and my wife all died fighting for Konoha.”
“You don’t hate Konoha?” Hagoromo Genzuki asked, looking at the majestic and solemn photo of Senju Hashirama on the tombstone.
"Hate? Of course I have." Flying Bamboo Dragonfly's eyes were very complicated, "But if we continue to hate like this, the sacrifices of my grandfather, my parents, and my wife will be meaningless at all. Isn't it too much? ridiculous?"
"I'm sorry, Clan Leader. Although we are descendants of the Hagoromo clan, we have lived in Konoha for decades and have completely integrated into it without knowing it. At least, those relatives who died are truly willing to fight for Konoha, not Forced to do nothing.”
Hearing this, Haoyi Xuanyue stretched out her palm, took a leaf that fell from the sky, touched the unique lines on the leaf with her fingers, and said lightly:
“So, heir to the Will of Fire?”
“Yes!” Flying Bamboo Dragonfly said with firm eyes.
Hagoromo Xuanyue understands.
Ever since he took over the Yuyi clan in Suoqian Village and understood the current situation, he had already expected this situation.
Breaking it into parts and spreading it out is indeed an excellent way to ensure the continuation of a family.
But this has also had a divisive effect.
No matter how much you emphasize your origins.
People of various ethnic groups who grew up in different places, different cultures, and different educations already have their own characteristics.
As time goes by, the signs of a complete breakup will only become more apparent.
Unless a powerful person with a great reputation stands up to reunite all of this.
Hagororomo Genzuki plays this role now.
It’s just that there are still things that are difficult to change after all. For example, the lineage of flying bamboo and dragonfly.
Hagoromo Xuanyue can understand Feizhu Dragonfly’s choice.
He was not angry, and threw the leaves down casually, reminding the other party: "Now that the position has been decided, the most taboo is the two ends of the head and the rat. Now you should come with the Konoha army instead of coming alone. ”
Flying Bamboo Dragonfly shook her head with a bitter smile: "Although I am now a member of Konoha, I still have the blood of Hagoromo in my body. There is nothing I can do to harm the clan leader."
Hearing this, Yuyi Xuanyue also shook his head and said: "Such a result will only bring you misfortune."
“I understand.” Flying Bamboo Dragonfly said with firm eyes.
He took a deep breath and said to Hagoromo Genzuki: "As the intelligence agent of the Hagoromo clan in Konoha, I know that my betrayal will bring very bad consequences to the clan. Therefore, Lord Clan Leader, I will use my I only want to ask the patriarch for one thing."
"explain."
"My son. He has never left Konoha, and he has never known that he is a descendant of the Hagoromo clan. I just hope that he can live in Konoha without any burden, and no longer have to bear the heavy name of 'Hagoromo' like me. ”
Hagoromo Xuanyue was silent for a while, nodded and said: "I understand."
Then, he turned around, looked at Fei Bamboo Dragonfly seriously and said, "I'm sorry. To be serious, it was because of me that we were separated."
“Without the clan leader, the fate of the Yuyi clan will only be worse.”
Feizhu Dragonfly, who knew the past history, said these words very sincerely, and finally bowed deeply to Hagoromo Xuanyue before turning around and leaving.
He needed some time to say goodbye to his son.
Hagororomo Xuanyue didn't stop him.
After the intelligence officers lurking in other villages rebelled, even if they promised that the secret would not be leaked, they would only end up being silenced.
This is the way of survival for a clan or a force.
Hagororomo Xuanyue understood this truth very early.
At last he glanced at the Senju Hashirama Cemetery. He had nothing to say and turned to leave.
Come to the bustling street.
Hagoromo Xuanyue casually helped a three or four-year-old girl who was having a rough time with her friends and almost bumped into him.
The little girl thanked her politely: "Thank you, uncle."
“Call me brother.”
Hagoromo Xuanyue touched the little girl's head. At this time, he happened to see an acquaintance, so he motioned to the little girl to play and walked over.
“I have seen that Hagoromo Genzuki with my own eyes. He is very scary. I am worried that something bad will happen to Sasuke after he goes to his place.”
"Okay, Sakura. Although Sasuke chose to rebel against the village without any memories, which made me very angry. But he is not a fool after all, and he must have his own judgment. In addition, don't look at Hagoromo Genzuki's evil reputation now. Hehe, he is actually a good person to some extent.”
"Good man? Hagoromo Genzuki? Is Ino-chan not feeling dizzy because of the fever? Let me touch your forehead."
"Touch your own broad forehead. Sakura, I am telling the truth. Really! There is a record of Hagoromo Genzuki's life in my family."
As soon as Hagoromo Genzuki got close, he heard Sakura and Ino talking about him.
He raised his eyebrows, inserted it, and asked curiously:
"Sakura, Ino, I heard that you are talking about Hagoromo Genzuki. I am also very curious about this person."
“In your eyes, what kind of person is Haoyi Xuanyue?”
