[Naruto] Can one still die without the Sharingan?

Parting is an inevitable topic in any relationship.

Gaara knew that Shizu would definitely leave. He knew it from the first day they met. Nothing he did ever classified Uchiha Shizu's existence as a necessary condition for being unable to do without her. He thought he was very sensible and independent, but when the day of separation came, he suddenly realized that Shizu Uchiha had already left a profound mark in his life.

This time, she was really leaving. Even if he comes back, he will never be the same again.

No, I'm afraid that can no longer be called "coming back". Because she is not from Sunagakure Village, the place where she should really "come back" is Konoha.

Uchiha Shizu will really never come back again.

Jing's mood is equally complicated, but unlike Gaara, she has no obstacles in expressing her feelings.

"Come." Looking at Gaara who had been silent all this time, Jing waved, and then watched Gaara silently approach, stopping within arm's reach of her.

Within reach, within reach.

Gaara, who just celebrated his birthday not long ago, is now over twelve years old and is a half-grown boy. For the sake of the child's physical and mental health, Shizuo Uchiha has not done anything like petting a child for a long, long time. But this time, after a long time, Jing stretched out his black hand towards Gaara again, and inserted five fingers from the root of the hair. Although it was gentle, it really hit the child's entire head. Finally, the hand came to rest on his forehead.

Jing didn't know where the word came from, but she knew that the word was carved very deeply, and it must have hurt when it was carved, otherwise the touch of the scar would not have been so clear after so many years.

"I'm quite reluctant to leave you." Jing said.

Gaara didn't speak, he was still silent, looking at Jing silently, but he didn't avoid or open Jing's hand like before, he just looked at her so steadily.

"You are a child who knows your best. I have nothing to tell you." Jing withdrew her hand and patted his head, "I wish you... can live this life calmly."

Calmness, this word is very simple and easy to understand, but it is really difficult to achieve and even harder to maintain. No matter who you are, you will encounter some unexpected situations. To remain calm in unexpected situations undoubtedly requires a lot of strength, but more importantly, you also need a strong and determined heart to be able to survive like a storm in the storm. Like a lighthouse, no matter when, where, or what happens, you can face it calmly.

"Let's go!" Jing stopped her hand, turned around and walked towards the door.

"Hey!" Gaara finally said, "Shall I... send you off?"

"Don't give it away." Jing turned back and waved at him with a smile, then turned around again and never looked back.

Uchiha Shizu just left without taking anything with her. She didn't even wait for Temari and Kankuro to say goodbye when they returned from their mission.

But she left behind many things, many things that are still unseen.

This kind of thing is generally called the future.

Uchiha Shizuku left, leaving neatly, but her mood was not as neat as her actions. She really meant her words of reluctance. What made her even more uneasy was the forced recall order.

Who was in trouble, Itachi or Shisui? Something happened to Uchiha? Or something happened to the village? Or maybe the village is going to war? Apart from these reasons, Jing couldn't think of anything else that would make the Hokage forcefully recall such a level order to bring him back.

She wasn't expecting anything to happen to anyone, but if she really found out that nothing happened when she returned to the village, then she would definitely rush into the Hokage's office building and trim the third generation's beard, and it would be useless for anyone to stop him.

Thinking of this, Uchiha Shizuo, who was running on the road... rolled up his sleeves fiercely.

"Hokage-sama! Shizuo Uchiha has arrived." A ninja wearing a chuunin vest reported at the door of the Hokage's office.

"So fast?" Sandai raised his head from the document, "Where is he?"

"Here." Behind the chuunin, a black figure walked around and walked directly into the third generation's office. His face looked very smelly.

The Sandaime raised his eyebrows and motioned for the chuunin to go out. Then he stood up and waved to Shizuo. As for Jing, she squinted at Sandai's beard and stepped forward step by step.

"Is the injury healed?" Sandai said, and the first sentence he said was concern.

"I haven't done this in a long time." Jing Jing replied calmly, and then asked the fatal question without even saying a word.

"What happened in the village? You want to use a forced recall order to call me back?"

Uchiha Shizu did not dare to relax at all along the way. He traveled at night and under the stars, and it took a total of two and a half days from order to hand to people to Konoha.

When the half-tired Uchiha stood in front of the grand gate of Konoha, looking at the Konoha ninja village that was not only singing and dancing, but at least a peaceful and prosperous era, he snapped his fingers fiercely.

"Nothing happened in the village." Sandai looked at Uchiha Shizu's increasingly darker expression, and felt a little happy in his heart. However, he didn't have a strange hobby for having his beard pulled out, so he quickly added.

"Whatever happens to the village is your own business." Sandai said.

"Me?" Jing was confused.

"This year's Jounin application registration window ends the day after tomorrow." Sandai patted Jing's shoulder, "Apply now. It's still too late after passing the exam."

"Huh?" Jing frowned, "What's the time?"

The third generation didn't speak immediately. He looked into Uchiha Shizu's eyes and watched Uchiha Shizu change from doubt to thinking to shock.

"Isn't it?!" Jing's voice was a little weird, "You want me to be the instructor Jonin?!"

"What?" Sandai took a puff of cigarette, "You have already led genin. Compared with those people, you have experience."

"How can that be counted?!" Jing collapsed.

"And look, how many people have you brought with you?" Sandaime clapped his fingers, "I won't mention the ones from Sunagakure Village. The one from Kirigakure Village who is now Mizukage's right-hand man, and the child from Hinata's family in our village are also now The best among Genin, both in terms of strength and character, are far superior to others."

Uchiha Shizu really collapsed.

"Hokage-sama, the examples you gave are not convincing! Neji and Kimimaro are already very strong, so they can't be counted on me. I didn't lead them for long."

"As for the one in Sunagakure Village, it has no comparative value. It is a one-on-one elite education, which is completely different from the education method of guiding Jonin!"

The third generation seemed to be thinking seriously about Uchiha Shizu's words. Seeing this, Shizu quickly struck while the iron was hot.

"And look at these three people, an heir to the Corpse Lineage, a genius that the Hyuga clan has only seen for a century, and I won't say what the other one is. They are all great young men. If they can achieve what they have today, my It doesn't have much effect, it's all the result of their own efforts." Jing said quickly, "Or to put it another way, I'm more suitable to teach children who have a good foundation and are easy to understand, but such children are hard to find. Found it, there are some good players in Konoha who are better suited to lead them than me."

"It seems... makes sense."

Seeing that the third generation was loosening up, Uchiha Shizuo saw the opportunity and took the last dose of strong medicine.

"Otherwise, I'll hand in the Jonin application, but I'll postpone taking care of students for a few years. After all, I'm only 17 years old, a few years older than them." At the end of the sentence, Jing's voice was a little helpless, "You Look, does this work?”

"Okay." The third generation seemed to agree reluctantly, and then waved his hand, "You go back and prepare. I will consider the list of instructors."

That night, when Nara Shikaku was helping the third generation organize documents, he dropped a roster.

"I found it." Sandai stroked his chest and breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought I had to rewrite it."

"The list of instructing Jonin..." Shikaku handed it to the third generation, "However, Uchiha Shizu refused, who do you plan to let go?"

"Jing? I never thought about letting her go." Unexpectedly, Sandai said this.

"Huh?" Lujiu blinked.

"You know how lazy you are every day, do you think if I ask her to submit a Jonin application directly, can she hand it in to me?" said the Third Hokage, the old god.
