Konoha’s 50 Years Chapter 22: Eternal Art


"Hey, isn't this a bug?"

Chiyo, who had just finished the meeting and was walking down the street, ran into a teenager holding three puppets.

Hearing the sound, the little insect raised the crow that covered his sight, revealing a smiling face: "Chi-dai mother-in-law."

"Well, you are carrying..."

"It is a puppet made by the scorpion for the customer."

Chiyo was taken aback, "Is it done so soon?"

"Yes, the scorpion is a genius!"

After hearing this, Chiyo smiled slightly, stretched out his arm, helped the little insect to lift the puppet up, and then asked: "What's wrong with the scorpion lately?"

"Abnormal..." The little insect pondered for a moment, and shook his head: "In addition to being withdrawn as always, he has recently been making some sophisticated puppet arms, which are exactly the same as real people!"

"Really," Chiyo nodded without paying attention. "Then you go, pay attention to safety."

"Yes, a thousand generations mother-in-law."

Looking at the little insect holding the puppet and disappearing around the corner, Chiyo turned around and walked slowly towards the puppet room.

Xiao Chong is the only friend of Scorpion. It can also be said that it is the bond between Chiyo and Scorpion. Usually, she uses Xiao Chong to understand Scorpion's movements.

But today is a little bit special. After seeing the bug, she decided to take a look at her grandson, whom she hadn't seen for a long time.

Yes, it's been a long time.

In the past few years, the relationship between Chiyo and Scorpion has been harmonious, and it can even be said to be tense. Except for occasional discussions about puppets, there are very few other exchanges between the two.

Don't talk about Hai Lao Zang, but the communication between the worm and the scorpion is more than that of the thousand generations.

Recalling now, it was probably because she had just been redeemed at that time. She didn't know how to explain the death of Tong Ye and Yin, or how to face the scorpion, so she chose to escape and alienate.

"At that time, I must have hurt him deeply, right?"

Chiyo knew this clearly, but there was no way, because at that time she was just a poor woman who had just lost her son and daughter-in-law.

Opening the door of the puppet room, under the dim oil lamp, the red-haired boy is still busy.

"Why are you back again?" Scorpion asked flatly.

However, he found that the frequency of footsteps was different from that of the bug, he turned his head and saw that it was his grandmother Chiyo.

Scorpion did not speak, pursed his lips, then lowered his head to continue making his own puppet.

Chiyo felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward, so he also didn't speak, but stood silently behind the scorpion, watching him make a puppet.

The ability of the puppet master is all on the puppet, and the manipulation of the puppet relies on the ten fingers, so the hands of the puppet master are more flexible and delicate than the average ninja.

Scorpion is naturally the same. When he was young, he was already stronger than many Shangren in terms of the speed of forming seals. When playing with the puppet, he turned his fingers even more, which made people a little dazzling.

Chiyo nodded silently. Scorpion's accomplishments in puppets are really rare. Not to mention Tong Ye, even at this age, he is far worse.

"Are you going to the battlefield?" Scorpion who had not spoken suddenly asked,

Chiyo was taken aback, and wondered: "How did you know?"

"You rarely visit me, let alone come to the puppet room, but today is so abnormal, and..." Scorpion pursed his lips and continued: "I heard the bug say that the frontline was defeated."

Chiyo nodded, a little surprised at Scorpion's keenness.

"Yes, it will be on the battlefield soon. Konoha White Fang is on the front line now. I want to avenge Tongya and Yin."

"You couldn't kill him four years ago, will you be able to do it in four years?" Scorpion said flatly.

Chiyoi was a little confused at the time.

Yes, four years ago, Shuomao was not as good as it was at his peak. Now that so long has passed, how could she be an opponent?

"Don't look for Konoha and White Fang again when you are on the battlefield. I will retaliate for this grudge in the future."

Scorpion's tone is very calm, as if killing White Fang, for him, it's just a small thing.

Chiyo frowned and remained silent.

Scorpion is indeed a rare genius for decades. He graduated from Ninja School at the age of 7 and became Zhongren at the age of 8, which is really rare in Shayin Village.

But the question is, aren’t white teeth a genius?

At his current age, at least ten years at his peak, Scorpion is still very young now, how can he avenge it?

Arrogance is a common problem of geniuses. Chiyo was a little worried that the scorpion head would get hot, so he persuaded: "I believe you can get revenge in the future, but you are still young now. If the front is tight and you are sent to the battlefield, don't look for it. White teeth!"

"Why, I am afraid that I will die in his hands? I remember that Konoha Leiguang defeated Shouhe in the Land of Rain at the age of ten."

Chiyo looked at the amber eyes of the scorpion, not knowing how to answer.

She knows the strength of Scorpion very well. She also knows the strength of Uchiha Chen when she was ten years old. Compared with the latter, the former is obviously far behind.

Not satisfied? You also go try a tail beast?

But this kind of thing is definitely impossible to say. If you don't say the self-confidence to fight the scorpion, it will easily arouse his victory or defeat.

What if the scorpion is on an impulse and really goes to the tail beast to prove himself?

After thinking about it, Chiyo had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "I just don't want you to take risks. You are destined to become the fourth generation of Fengying."

"Fourth Generation Fengying?"

"Yes, I am coming back this time because I have an agreement with the third generation. He will support you to become the fourth generation Fengying. Similarly, during the war, I will also support him."

Xie sneered and said: "Do you believe him?"

Chiyo nodded: "Rosa was defeated on the front line. This is a stain that is difficult to erase. The three generations of Fengying just want to push him to the top, and the ninjas in the village will be dissatisfied. Besides, the three generations of Fengying are no better. 'S choice."

"What if he dominates his position and does not leave?"

"Three generations of Fengying is indeed a person who loves power, but since he announced the decision to abdicate at the elders, if he breaks his promise, those big families will completely destroy him."

Scorpion was silent for a moment, then shook his head: "I may not be the person you want me to be."

Chiyo was taken aback, and said in disbelief: "You don't want to be the fourth generation Fengying?"

"I don't want to."

"But I remember when you were a kid..."

Scorpion's tone immediately changed from calm to cold: "I am no longer who I was then."

Yes, he is not who he was then.

If the scorpion has learned anything over the years, it is probably a gentle, kind-hearted person, who always finds it difficult to survive.

Because... this ninja world is neither gentle nor kind.

The wind came in from outside the window. Although it was not cold, Chiyo felt a little cold in her hands and feet. For the first time, she discovered that Scorpion was so strange.

Especially those amber pupils without the slightest emotion, making Chiyo almost go away.

She finally sighed and patted the dust on the corner of the scorpion~IndoMTL.com~ and reached out to help him adjust the loopholes on the puppet, then slowly turned and left.

He didn't say a word in the middle.

Scorpion sat on the chair and kept the position just now. After a long time, his stiff body gradually eased.

"Grandma, don't die."

After showing a little tenderness, Scorpion returned to his indifference again.

"Konoha White Fang, three generations of Fengying, Konoha Thunder..."

He lightly recited a series of names. These people are all related to the death of his parents, or the people who have offended him, and are also on the list of his to kill.

"Waiting to kill these people..."

Scorpion raised his arm, his slender fingertips lightly pressed on the position of the heart, and his tone was fanatical: "I will plunge into eternity."
