Chapter 195： Uchiha leaves the village, villagers react

Chapter 195 Uchiha leaves the village, villagers’ reaction

Sasuke didn't pay attention to Ichiraku's confusion.

After finishing a few mouthfuls of ramen and experiencing his childhood memories, he paid and got up, preparing to return.

Sakura suddenly appeared in the store.

“Sasuke!”

In the past time, Sakura has always paid attention to Sasuke.

Noting that she saw Sasuke going to the Ichiraku Ramen Shop, she quietly left the Konoha army just to meet Sasuke again here.

At this moment, Sakura looked at Sasuke who was close at hand with an excited and somewhat complicated expression.

To be serious, although the two have met before, the distance between them is less than one meter like this. This is the first time since Sasuke left the village.

"Sasuke, I." Sakura couldn't wait to say something.

Sasuke, who understood what Sakura wanted to say, shook his head and interrupted: "Sakura, you have grown up."

Sakura was stunned.

Just as she was subconsciously thinking about what Sasuke meant when he said this, maybe he was praising her for being feminine.

Sasuke continued: "Now that you have grown up, Sakura, you should know what the adult world is."

"There are some words that I will never be able to explain to Naruto, that one-sided idiot. But Sakura, you can understand. So, I will explain it one last time. You can also convey it to Naruto afterwards."

At the Ichiraku Ramen Shop, Sasuke had already made a decision.

He revealed his true thoughts to Sakura with a very calm face:

“Sakura, we can’t go back to the past.”

"Sasuke! You can." Upon hearing this, Sakura looked anxious and wanted to say something immediately.

Just as she started to speak, she suddenly realized that she didn't know how to continue.

She is not Naruto, and she does not have his fighting spirit to never give up no matter the hardships, even if the hope is extremely slim.

She is smart and sober.

But precisely because of this, no matter how much she fell in love and she didn't want to admit it, she knew in her heart that it would be difficult for Sasuke to come back, whether it was before or after what happened today.

So, when Sasuke said "you can't go back to the past" in front of her, she subconsciously wanted to refute, but found that she didn't know what kind of reason to find.

Even when she came here now, to be honest, she didn't know why, she just came here reflexively.

Perhaps she acted this way because she subconsciously hoped to get a real and complete answer.

So, Sasuke gave her the complete answer.

"The bond of Team 7 is still in my heart and has not been severed. But, Sakura, I have new, more, and more caring bonds. I understand why I live, and the hatred I have always had is no longer there. Keep it in my heart."

“In the world of adults, there are always trade-offs. To naively want to hold everything in your arms is what children and Naruto think.”

“I’m sorry, I chose a new bond.”

After saying the last sentence, Sasuke nodded to Sakura, passed her by, and walked out of the store.

Sakura wanted to reach out and hold Sasuke, but after thinking about what the other person had just said, she couldn't let it go.

“Sasuke.”

In the end, she could only stand there alone, tears streaming down her face.

The big news about the reappearance of the Uchiha clan spread quickly in Konoha Village like a tornado.

Even if the top brass of Konoha tried to stop it, it would be of no use.

More and more Konoha villagers went to the market to see the glory of the Uchiha people with their own eyes.

Compared to the past, the village today is much more lively.

It’s just that the excitement didn’t last long.

As time went by, although the Uchiha people occasionally bought some things on the street, they did not stop there and still headed towards the gate of Konoha.

He knows the village very well, and more and more Konoha villagers have noticed Uchiha's movements.

As the gate of Konoha got closer and closer, they gradually began to murmur in their hearts. "Looking at the direction the Uchiha clan is heading, it seems they are leaving the village."

“Are they going to do a mission?”

"What mission requires so many people? And they are all Uchiha?"

“Have you ever noticed that people in Uchiha are very indifferent and don’t get along with everyone?”

“Aren’t they always like this?”

"It's different, it's really different this time. Didn't you notice? None of the Uchiha ninjas are wearing Konoha forehead protectors!"

“There are a large group of village ninjas following behind. Judging from their expressions, they don’t look happy.”

"What exactly is going on?"

ˆ “.”

After the excitement, many Konoha villagers finally realized something was wrong.

soon.

When the Uchiha people ignored the villagers' inquiries and came to the gate of Konoha, they stepped out without any hesitation. They didn't even look back stingily and left quickly.

The Konoha villagers who followed along were completely stunned, and the originally lively atmosphere suddenly fell silent.

Some people wondered: "Why did they leave? They didn't even say hello."

Someone thought of something, but still felt aroused in his heart: "Isn't Uchiha a member of Konoha? Why have they left now? Even if they are going to do a mission, they have to register at the door."

Some people even sneered and already speculated: "Is there a possibility that they are no longer a member of Konoha?"

Naturally, these remarks triggered refutations from others and further discussions.

“But Uchiha has been a member of Konoha from the beginning.”

“It was true at the beginning. But after the night of genocide, it is very likely that it is no longer true.”

"Didn't that Uchiha Itachi guy do the night of genocide? What does it have to do with Konoha?"

"hehe."

“It’s strange to think about it now. There was obviously only one boy named Sasuke left in the Uchiha clan back then, and the others were all dead. Why are there a group of real Uchiha appearing now?”

“You mean the village lied back then? What was it hiding?”

There were discussions one after another at the village gate.

Until someone makes everything clear:

"No need to fantasize anymore! These Uchihas who have survived to this day are no longer members of Konoha, and they are even enemies of Konoha. Otherwise, there would not be so many village ninjas following behind. They are Are you sending me off? No! They are watching!"

As soon as these words came out, the scene became silent again.

Soon, the crowd of villagers turned their heads and looked at the Konoha ninjas who were also following.

The Konoha ninjas were very silent.

When the villagers saw this scene, they fell silent together.

They don’t understand politics or general principles.

But they knew that Uchiha had been living here since the establishment of the village in Konoha and was the elder of Konoha.

It can make the few Uchiha people nowadays ignore their old feelings at all and choose to leave the village without hesitation and never come back.

There must be a big problem here.

Is the problem the Uchihas who have left their homes?

No.

The problem will only lie with the village itself, with the Konoha ninjas who hold power.

At this moment, the Konoha villagers looked at the Konoha ninjas.

The atmosphere became more deserted than ever before.
