Sasuke looked at me disapprovingly, and Naruto looked concerned as well.

I convinced them, "This is also to better protect Mr. Dazna. If Zabuza and Shiro can give up their mission, our mission will be much smoother, right?"

Bai smiled at Sasuke and Naruto, looking very harmless.

Bai and I went to an empty alley not far away. Sasuke and Naruto could see us clearly, but because of the distance and the noisy market, it was difficult for them to hear what we were saying.

Bai Dao: "I tried to persuade Mr. Zabuza to give up the mission, but..."

"He doesn't want to?"

"No. Mr. Zabuza is also inclined to give up, but not only do we need the money, but we also need to hide our whereabouts to avoid being hunted down by the Kirigakure assassination forces. Once we fall out with Cardo, he will definitely reveal our whereabouts."

When he said this, a thought naturally flashed through my mind: the best way is to kill Cardo.

This is a completely easy thing for me.

It seems to be very convenient and easy, but those who always want to take shortcuts will often fall into traps.

I quickly suppressed this thought in my heart, "So what do you and Zabuza want to do?"

"You once said you could help us..." Bai looked at me, "The Sharingan's illusions are unmatched. Maybe you can trap Cardo in an illusion and make him forget about me and Mr. Zabuza."

"No."

Bai was surprised and asked, "Why?"

"Because you knew I had the Sharingan, so you took it for granted that I could do this."

"But Cardo is... aren't we on the same side now?"

"But if I really promised you, would you think that if one day you stood on the opposite side of me, I would do the same to you? Or, if I can distort other people's memories at will, would I control you in this way so that you would never stand on the opposite side of me?"

"..."

"Right, you will hesitate, right? If it were me, I would hesitate too. The ability to control other people's thoughts will make my companions feel terrified. Once it is used lightly, everyone's trust will be lost. So I have made up my mind that I will never use my power in this way."

Bai seemed to relax a little, but also more helpless: "So, what about Cardo?"

"Zabuza is an experienced ninja, and a powerful figure who has planned a plan to assassinate the Mizukage. You are also a genius who joined the Kirigakure Assassination Department at a young age... and I am just a novice who just graduated from the ninja school and is carrying out a C-rank mission for the first time... Do you really need me to help you find a solution?"

"Are there any newbies with the Mangekyō Sharingan?" Bai couldn't help laughing after saying this.

He looked back at the entrance of the alley behind him and saw a figure wearing a bamboo hat turning out from the alley.

He raised his head, revealing Zabuza's face, half of which was wrapped in bandages.

Bai looked at me apologetically, and said to Zabuza: "I said that Chaolu didn't use the Sharingan to control me."

Zabuza did not answer him. He stared at me - but under the cover of the hat, I couldn't see his eyes. I could only feel his gaze.

Is he guarding against the Sharingan?

"When I was in the Kirigakure assassination unit... in the manual I carried with me, there was information about a man with the Mangekyō Sharingan. That man was called Uchiha Shisui. Although he was famous in the ninja world as 'Instant Body Shisui', what was more terrifying was his eyes. Uchiha Shisui's Sharingan had the ability to rewrite other people's thoughts."

I was stunned: "My ability is different from his."

"Sharingan is extremely rare. Even within the Uchiha clan, there are not many people who possess this special physique. And once the magatama in the Sharingan turns into a pattern and becomes the Mangekyō Sharingan... Currently, the only person with clear intelligence records is Uchiha Shisui."

I glanced at Sasuke, who was not far behind Zabuza. He met my gaze with an anxious expression.

Zabuza's appearance obviously surprised them, but I didn't look dangerous, and in order to protect Mr. Dazna, they couldn't easily stay away from him.

However, I could feel Sasuke urging me to go back quickly with his eyes.

I asked, "Doesn't Uchiha Itachi have the Mangekyō Sharingan? What are his abilities?"

Zabuza said coldly: "When I was in the Kirigakure Anbu, I had no information about Uchiha Itachi."

Just because Uchiha Itachi didn't know about it at that time doesn't mean he doesn't know about it now. But Zabuza became a traitor and lost the intelligence channel of Kirigakure. Many information can't be updated in time, so he doesn't know about Uchiha Itachi.

In other words, the only ability of the "Mangekyo Sharingan" that Zabuza can refer to is Uchiha Shisui's ability.

Most bloodline limits have similar abilities regardless of who the user is. Bloodline limits like the Mangekyō Sharingan that can generate different abilities based on the different characteristics of the user are extremely rare, and are very rare even within the Uchiha clan, let alone in the outside world.

I can only repeat: "My ability is different from Uchiha Shisui's. I can't rewrite other people's minds."

"How can you let me trust you?"

"I don't need to ask you to trust me," I said angrily, "I just want Bai to live well. If you insist on fighting us, then come and see if you can win!"

I walked away from Zabuza and he didn't stop me.

I returned to Naruto and Sasuke. They breathed a sigh of relief and asked me what I had said to them. I turned around to look at the place where I had been just now, but Zabuza and Haku were gone.

"Zabuza told me something about Uchiha Shisui."

Sasuke was stunned: "Brother Shisui?"

"He said that according to the previous intelligence from the Hidden Mist Village, only Uchiha Shisui had the Mangekyō Sharingan, and his ability was to rewrite other people's thoughts. Just like you, he thought that my ability was the same, and suspected that I had rewritten Haku's thoughts, so he came to confirm it."

Sasuke was stunned: "Is this Shisui-kun's ability?"

I was a little surprised: "Don't you know?"

Sasuke dropped his eyes, "I... always feel like I know nothing."

Naruto said, "Because no one told you?"

Sasuke fell silent.

When we got back to Mr. Dazna's house, Sasuke pulled me aside alone and asked me to tell him more about Uchiha Shisui.

But Zabuza only mentioned two points, his nickname is Flickering Shisui and his Mangekyō Sharingan ability.

Sasuke leaned against the pillar of the corridor outside the house, looking at the sea with his eyelids drooping: "I am obviously a member of the Uchiha clan, but like the outsiders, I know nothing about the Uchiha."

I didn't know how to answer, so I just stood beside him and held his hand.

"Naruto said that's because no one told me..." Sasuke held my hand tightly in return. For some reason, I felt that our clasped hands brought a deeper and closer connection, as if our hearts and souls were closer and more firmly connected. "But from now on, no one will ever tell me those things about the Uchiha clan. Everything that I should have known and should have been taught... I will never know it again."

"I...I'll teach you?"

"What did you teach me?"

"Isn't my ability to enter other people's memories... So... if I meet Uchiha Itachi in the future... I... can go into his memories and see what he knows about Uchiha?"

When I mention Uchiha Itachi, Sasuke will feel uncomfortable, but his reaction will not be so intense.

He leaned towards me quietly and rested his forehead on my shoulder: "I must catch up with you as soon as possible..."

"It's okay if I don't catch up," I said, "Isn't it good that I protect Sasuke?"

He chuckled, "I don't want to be protected by you."

I was unconvinced and asked, "Why? Why should I be protected by you?"

"Fool." Sasuke whispered, "If I am protected by you, doesn't it mean that I can only watch you fight, but I can't do anything?"

"Then I don't want to just watch you fight while I can't do anything."

"But if you fight, I'll be worried... I'll worry about you getting hurt, about you being in pain, about you... dying. I don't want you to get hurt, I don't want you to be wronged. No matter what the danger is, I want to take it for you."

"What a great idea..." I asked curiously, "Because you are the older brother?"

"I don't really understand..." He paused: "...As a brother...this is my first time too...maybe."
