Becoming friends is really the best way that Yingying can think of.

Not only does he not need to possess what Yu Liu inherited, but he can also add a powerful ally to his master.

Although this ally just started a one-sided war against his master not long ago.

However, after Yu Liu took charge of this force, didn't he already prevent the situation from continuing to develop and recall the maritime troops intending to attack Yuno Country?

so,

This is indeed the best result!

Full of joy, Yingying silently gave herself a big thumbs up.

However, the girl in front of Yu Zhi did not show the same joy, and even the eyes that had tried their best to show calmness surged with an impulse that was about to run away.

"friend?"

"I'm afraid it's a bit difficult to achieve, Hotaru."

Looking at the left hand that the former specially stretched out, the voice of the girl who had lost her teacher suddenly became a little low, and she was difficult to approach easily.

"Eh?"

After listening to the pleasant answer, Yingying, who thought she had made a perfect proposal, fell into a downtime again. Not only did the joy that rose in her heart gradually cool down, but even the palm that she actively extended forward became somewhat nowhere to rest.

"Why?"

"Is it because Yu Liusang doesn't want to be my friend?"

Such a polite refusal must have caused some excitement and disbelief in her psychology. After all, she thought she could become friends with him after experiencing some of the events tonight.

However, Yingying soon found a clue from the former's sudden shift of sight.

She followed the other person's gaze and looked at the master standing beside her.

Then the key is very clear. The important reason for all this is my master, and if I follow this line, I want to go down...

It’s Dr. Shennong!

Yingying got the answer in her heart, and her excitement was quietly suppressed at this moment.

The Shen Nong doctor who never appeared again must have done something during this period.

And judging from the series of things that happened before, Yu Liu’s respect, admiration, and even dependence on that teacher are difficult to abolish or erase!!

After Yingying figured this out, the emotions in her emerald eyes were gradually dominated by clear helplessness.

Because the reason why all this happened can be easily revealed: his master made the girl in front of him lose her teacher forever, so the other party wanted to use the transfer of power and secret skills to forcibly banish the future.

Possible revenge.

"My former teacher was the leader of that sky fortress."

Sure enough, the reason was consistent with Yingying's guess. From Yu Liu's opening remarks, the identity of Dr. Shennong was directly revealed.

"Now, he is dead."

"And he entrusted me with this sky fortress, the remaining ninjas of the Sky Ninja, and the secret technique that can summon the Zero-Tail."

As the red-haired girl calmly narrated, Hotaru's left hand that stretched forward gradually, slowly, unconsciously dropped downwards.

All this is consistent with speculation.

"And as the successor, the teacher left me a will: Defeat the Uchiha clan."

When his eyes turned around and their eyes met again, Yu Liu said again.

This is also the most important reason for her refusal:

From Teacher Shen Nong’s last request!

Although the other party could not admit that he was his student even when he was dying.

But, as far as this is concerned.

The former was not only the savior who saved him from death, but also the mentor who taught him medical skills!!

In a sense, if the other party wants her to do something, even if it means sacrificing her own life, she has no reason to refuse.

As for now, isn't he looking for the most suitable and best way to deal with it?

As long as Hotaru takes these two objects, she will no longer have the ability and strength to fulfill the teacher's will, and at the same time, she will fulfill her own vows.

【However, Firefly,】

[The one who is really to blame for all this happening is your master.]

[If it weren’t for what he said, I wouldn’t have made such a choice. 】

"So, what are you going to do, Firefly."

"It is to accept this power and eliminate the possible threats."

"Or, one day in the future, after I resurrect Zero-Tail, will your master and the Uchiha clan behind him, the Youyin Village, accept the revenge from the Kong Ninja lineage?"

Yu Liu said the terrifying words calmly, which was completely different from the previous look where she was crying with sadness, completely burying her head between her knees and trying to escape from everything.

However, this is a completely understandable change.

After all, no matter who is holding these two highly symbolic things, it means that they have to shoulder the heavy responsibility and will.

Of course, in addition to these invisible responsibilities, there is also a little selfishness.

Previously, while he was still standing in the shadows, he had heard the conversation between the two, and a kind of jealousy that could not be dismissed was surging in his heart.

She also really wanted to see Yingying's true determination,

Or, he pushed the kind girl closer to Mr. Ninja again.

【After all, idiot, Hotaru.】

[If you want to get closer and enter the world of this scary guy, it will be difficult to do it with just hard work.]

【You need to have your own confidence.】

【And this is my gift to you.】

Huang looked at Yu Liu with some doubts,

It was not because she changed her previous negative attitude and said such cruel words to Hotaru, but because when she made the determination to take revenge, her whole chakra energy was in an unusually peaceful and calm state.

This is somewhat inconsistent with the excitement and indignation of an Avenger.

Unless the girl in front of her is an actor with superb acting skills like Fenghua Xiaoxue, who can control all the emotions freely, there will definitely be some subtle flaws.

In addition, the only thing that can explain this phenomenon is that the other party does not have the desire for revenge, or the desire for revenge is not as strong as it sounds.

For Yu Liu, who had previously expressed sadness, anger, and rejection on her face, it must be difficult to achieve complete emotional control in a short period of time.

But if the former reason does not exist, then why does she pretend to be hateful?

"If there ever comes a day,"

"Yulu-san, you will be my enemy."

"I will work hard and protect my master!"

However, compared with Aara's ability to use the Sharingan to develop deep chakra, Hotaru, who is not deeply involved in the world, is much simpler. Now she can only judge the emotions of others through the words of others.

Moreover, he can completely understand Yu Liu's actions and choices.

Because no matter who it is, once she hurts her grandfather, she will do everything possible to get revenge!

For Yuliu, the significance of Dr. Shennong must be unique and extremely precious.

Firefly felt very sorry for the latter's passing.

But in this matter, my master did nothing wrong!

There is never any reason in this world that you have to let others slaughter you if you encounter a threat!!

The forces controlled by Shen Nong aimed their cannons at ordinary villages, which had already broken away from the ninja's agreement not to offend the common people.

Furthermore, the law of the jungle is the law among ninjas.

[Since you are the next leader of the Kong Ninja lineage, you should be very aware of this. 】

【Yu Liusang.】

Feeling Yingying's firm will and firm gaze that never retreated, Yu Liu, who had long dark red hair hanging down her waist, hesitated to say a word.

Those firm words fell not only in her ears, but also deep in her heart.

【Yes,】

[If Teacher Shennong could have treated me calmly earlier,]

[Just because of the grace of saving my life, I will never refuse any of the other party’s requests.]

【Whether it’s cooperating in various experiments, or being an enemy of the entire world.】

[I obviously only need recognition and a nicer lie. 】

"Oh, it seems you have made your own decision."
