Chapter 341 Mischievous
Chapter 341 Mischievous
Chiyo kept Karin behind alone because he wanted to ask her about what happened in the Forest of Death.
He stroked Karin's long red hair and asked softly:
"Why didn't you use your abilities to save them in the Forest of Death?"
Karin flinched and lowered her head upon hearing this.
However, she quickly and secretly looked up to see Qian Yao's expression.
When she noticed Qian Yao's expression soften, she hesitantly began to speak:
"me……"
"I don't want to use my abilities to heal them."
Qianyao asked curiously, "Why? Don't you think they are important partners?"
Karin stood there, head down, without saying a word.
Chiyo waited for Karin to speak.
Karin looked up and said with a pitiful expression, "I don't want to be like Mom!"
"I don't want to be as submissive as my mother."
"I have my own ideas! I want to live a completely different life from my mother!"
“It’s not that I don’t consider them partners, it’s just that they’re not in any danger, and I don’t want anyone other than my master to bite me.”
Karin burst into tears, her face instantly turning into a mess:
"I don't want to be like my mother, bitten and bruised all over by so many people. I don't want to live that kind of life. I don't want to, sob sob sob."
"Okay, sweetie, it's alright now."
Chiyo gently wiped away Karin's tears and softly comforted her.
No wonder Karin and Mio have almost opposite personalities; this is why.
Karin's situation clearly stems from childhood trauma and psychological issues.
For her, Mio being forced to become a blood bank, and her submissive personality, were synonymous with misfortune.
Therefore, Karin rejects Mio's personality traits and her past use of her abilities.
If circumstances do not permit, Chiyo might interfere with Karin's thinking.
But now that he possesses the Water of Life, anything Karin can save with her abilities can also be saved with the Water of Life.
There's no need to force yourself to suffer if you don't have to.
"Then we won't need your abilities. Don't worry, no one will force you."
"From now on, carry some water of life with you. If someone is seriously injured and on the verge of death, it can keep them alive."
Hearing how considerate Qianyao was of her, Xianglin was deeply moved and hugged Qianyao, resting her head on his chest.
Chiyo ruffled Karin's hair: "Alright, then I won't use your abilities anymore."
Karin was crying when she heard Chiyo's words and twitched.
He couldn't catch his breath and his face turned red.
Qianyao quickly patted Xianglin on the back: "What's the rush? I'm here, aren't I?"
Karin coughed twice and then said anxiously:
"No, Master is different. I'm happy to be able to help Master."
For Karin, meeting Chiyo was a turning point in her life.
Chiyo was the best person to her in the world, and Karin was overjoyed that her bloodline limit could be used by Chiyo.
"Okay, as you wish. I'll need your help in the future."
Chiyo patted Karin's head with amusement.
Although Karin was initially brought back to the Uchiha clan for personal gain.
However, Chiyo truly doted on Karin, and Karin was grateful, which naturally made him very gratified.
"Wipe your tears. You take care of Hinata and Hanabi. I have other things to take care of."
Karin pouted, grabbed Chiyo's clothes, and wiped all her tears on them.
Then he made a face at Qianyao: "All done!"
Qianyao chuckled and tapped Xianglin on the forehead:
"You little rascal, hurry up and go."
Karin stopped crying and started laughing, then skipped away with light steps.
Although her body has grown up, Karin hasn't changed at all; she's still the same little girl.
……
The Hokage's office.
There were a lot of people this time.
The Third Hokage, Sarutobi Sekishu, Jiraiya, as well as Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu are all here.
Because the Third Hokage completely broke ties with Chiyo this time, he directly replaced the Nine-Tails with a Jinchuriki.
Moreover, he killed more than a hundred members of the Anbu who went to besiege Chiyo, and these were all direct subordinates of the Third Hokage.
Even with Jiraiya's cooperation, so many people still died.
Jiraiya's situation is also bad; Shima Gamabunta was burned by Amaterasu.
Although she returned after the summoning was broken, the toad's size was limited, so when Amaterasu hit her, it hit her entire body.
Shima has suffered severe burns all over her body. Although she should be able to survive, how long it will take to recover depends on the situation.
The Third Hokage's side was constantly deploying troops and frequently mobilizing the Anbu to prepare for the Uchiha's thunderous response.
But to his surprise, the Uchiha clan had not yet responded.
The Hyuga side has run into trouble first.
Given the current situation, the Third Hokage himself dispatched many Anbu members to gather intelligence.
Many members of the Anbu saw the green signal flare fired by the Hyuga clan into the sky.
Some of the ANBU even approached the Hyuga clan's territory.
They discovered that there was a large-scale infighting among the Hyuga clan members inside.
As more and more intelligence continued to come in.
The Third Hokage also deduced what had happened to the Hyuga clan.
"A coup d'état by the Hyuga branch family?" The Third Hokage was somewhat surprised.
Sarutobi Seishu nodded solemnly: "There's only one possibility."
"Moreover, the division of the family must have been a successful coup, otherwise Hiashi would have come out long ago."
The Third Hokage was not surprised that the Hyuga branch family had staged a coup.
After all, where there is oppression, there is resistance. Hyuga Hizashi and Hyuga Mitsunobu were both used as scapegoats by the main family. It would be strange if the branch family didn't rebel.
However, even the Third Hokage wasn't entirely sure how the division of the family had actually been successful.
However, many members of the Anbu reported that many of the Hyuga clan members who had jobs in the village were now being replaced by other clan members.
The Hyuga clan members are all pretty much the same in terms of functionality, so there's no problem with that.
But this means that many people died in Hyuga today, and they can only barely manage to keep up with their work.
As for the matter of Uchiha Chiyo joining the Hyuga clan and eventually bringing Hinata and Hanabi out with him.
It was also reported to the secret service.
The third generation believed that if Hiashi were still alive, it should not be allowed.
It seems that Nichiha Chiyo has staked all his assets on Uchiha Chiyo.
As for the excuse given to the outside world that it was an attack by Obito, Hiruko, and Moryo, the Third Hokage naturally didn't believe it at all.
"The Hyuga clan sided with the Uchiha clan a long time ago, and even Sota from the branch family had been planning this for several years."
"We can't worry about the Hyuga clan right now. The Uchiha clan just sent someone to inform us."
"Qianyao is going to force a high-level meeting."
Koharu Utatane reminds the Third Hokage what the most important thing is right now.
The Third Hokage took a drag of his cigarette: "I'm not worried about the high-level meeting. I'm still the Hokage."
"I'm just worried that Qianyao might do something desperate."
"His fighting power is too strong; there's simply no way to stop him."
Mitokado Homura seemed to have thought of something terrible, and his face turned somewhat grim as he said, "Could it be that he will take direct action?"
Koharu, who was turning over the door, also remembered being threatened by Chiyo in the past, and said with a gloomy face:
"It's not impossible."
The Third Hokage glanced at Jiraiya, who shook his head slightly.
"If Qianyao makes a move, I won't be able to protect myself. You should make some preparations before the meeting."
Koharu Utatane asked the Third Hokage, "Have you decided what you mentioned last time?"
The Third Hokage nodded solemnly and said, "It's decided, and it's already done. Otherwise, how could I have come up with so much money?"
"But they won't let the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki go."
Sarutobi Seishu smiled confidently: "If I want to leave, no one can stop me."
