Naruto: This Uchiha is too innocent.

Chapter 91 Collecting Corpses

Seeing that the others were only reluctantly dealing with the corpse in Uzuki Kaze because Asuma had spoken, Kurenai Yuhi felt a tightness in her chest, a dull and uncomfortable feeling.

She suddenly realized that the village was somewhat unfamiliar, no longer the perfect village in her mind, but a village where everything had a price tag. After a while, she suppressed this feeling; now was not the time to think about these things.

She quickly realized that the ninjas didn't seem to be planning to bury the body. Her face flushed red, and she angrily shouted, "What are you doing?! He died saving Asuma!"

The group was taken aback and looked at each other. One of them said helplessly, "Young lady, the Dark Guard is responsible for the deaths of its members. We have no authority to handle the bodies, so we plan to freeze them first and then hand them over to the Dark Guard."

Yuhi Kurenai was taken aback. Clearly, she didn't know the rule and had made a fool of herself. She immediately fell silent and walked aside sullenly.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, someone approached Asuma and whispered, "Asuma, I see your injuries are quite severe. Let me take you to get checked out first. If anything goes wrong, we won't be able to face the Hokage."

Asuma remained silent, then nodded slightly, which was taken as agreement.

Kurenai watched Asuma leave with someone, opened her mouth, but ultimately said nothing. Asuma was the most seriously injured besides Kazekatsuki and definitely needed treatment. She rested her chin on her hand and stared blankly at the sky.

As dawn broke and the morning light slowly descended, the birds began to chirp and twitter. The villagers, who had been sleeping soundly, gradually got up. Most of them were unaware of what had happened the day before.

Looking at the peaceful village, Kurenai Yuhi was stunned. She suddenly envied these ignorant villagers who did not have to stand on the front line and listen to the song of life and death. Even if Konoha really lost, most of them would not die, but would only become prisoners. Ninjas were different. Even if they became prisoners, they could not escape death. No country would allow dangerous elements to live on its territory.

"Sister?" Suddenly, a weak voice brought Kurenai Yuhi back to her senses. She turned around and saw a little girl with naturally curly hair standing in front of her.

"Shisui? What are you doing here?" she exclaimed in surprise, unable to resist reaching out to pinch Shisui's cheek.

"I'll wait here for my brother," Zhishui said softly, still not used to the enthusiastic young lady in front of him.

"Waiting for brother?" Kurenai Yuhi was taken aback, her gaze sweeping around before she realized that this was the gates of Konoha. Shisui probably thought she could wait for Uchiha Sora here. She smiled and said, "You won't find Sora here. As an Anbu member, Sora doesn't use the main gates to enter or exit."

"Huh?" Shisui's eyes widened, his clear gaze revealing disappointment. "Is that so?" He gets up so early every day, but he never expected his brother to not use the front door. How infuriating.

"Why did your sister come back?" he asked.

Upon hearing this, Kurenai's smile vanished instantly. She said softly, "I was taking a very nice older brother home." As she spoke, she glanced at Shisui. Shisui also knew Kazunari Uzuki, so she didn't want to tell him this sad truth.

"Oh." Shisui didn't think too much about it. He sighed, "I haven't seen my brother in so long. I wonder how he's doing."

"Ku... don't worry, he's fine." Kurenai didn't know what to say. If she told Shisui that Uchiha Ku had awakened the Sharingan, he would definitely worry. After all, as an Uchiha, he would definitely understand the Uchiha clan better.

Fortunately, Shisui didn't press the matter. He was only slightly disappointed for a moment, but quickly cheered up, clenching his fist with a determined look.

"My father said he'll take me to experience the battlefield during this time, and soon I'll be able to help my brother."

A hint of surprise flashed in Kurenai's eyes. Experiencing the battlefield? Shisui is only six years old, and he's already exposed to the battlefield so early?

However, considering that Shisui was under Momonosuke's care, he wasn't too worried, after all, his father had once said that Momonosuke was unfathomable.

"At such a young age, he already wants to help Sora. Shisui is such a good little brother." She patted Shisui's head.

"Of course! I'm an Uchiha!" Shisui said proudly. "One day, I will become a man who surpasses my brother."

"Really? Then you'd better work hard~ Surpassing Kong is no easy feat."

……

Uchiha Sora left Kikyo Mountain and returned to Konoha. He originally intended to take the secret passage, but he found two familiar figures near the Konoha gate. Due to his limited vision, the figures were very blurry, and it took him a while to confirm that they were Shisui and Kurenai Yuhi.

After thinking for a moment, he took off his shady clothes and chose to go through the main entrance.

The moment he stepped through the gates of Konoha wearing the Uchiha clan robe, the sharp-eyed Shisui immediately ran up excitedly, waving and shouting, "Brother, brother, here, here!"

Hearing the enthusiastic shouts, Uchiha Sora's inner turmoil was somewhat washed away by Shisui's voice. He opened his arms, letting Shisui bombard him like cannonballs.

"Shisui, what are you doing here?"

Zhishui, nestled in his arms, looked up and stared at his large, bright eyes. "Hehe, I'll wait for you here, brother."

"Is that so?" Uchiha Sora smiled, ruffling Shisui's hair.

He was waiting for him at the gate of Konoha so early in the morning, but how could Shisui know when he would come back? So it was highly likely that he would come to the gate to wait for him every day. Where could he find such an outstanding younger brother?

After playing with Shisui for a while, he walked towards Kurenai Yuhi.

"null……"

"And him?" Uchiha Sora asked softly.

Kurenai knew he was asking about Kazunari Uzuki. "He... was frozen. The ninjas said he was an Anbu member, and the Anbu were responsible for disposing of his body."

Uchiha Sora nodded. "Where is it? Take me there."

Then, he turned to Shisui and said, "Shisui, I have some things to do. You can play by yourself for a while, and I'll come find you when I'm done."

Shisui pouted unhappily, but he knew his brother was busy. "I know, brother, remember to call me!"

"Yes, I will."

Afterwards, he followed Kurenai Yuhi to the cold storage area. Looking at the white cloth on the ice, Uchiha Sora subconsciously gripped the hem of his clothes and stepped forward to check on Kazunari Uzuki.

"Hey, you two, what are you doing?"

At that moment, a ninja suddenly appeared and said, "This is not a place for you to play. Get out now."

Uchiha Sora remained silent, then took out a fox mask that represented his Anbu identity.

"Give him to me."

The man was taken aback and hesitated before saying, "But there haven't been any orders from above."

"I said, hand him over to me." Uchiha Sora's voice turned cold, and his Sharingan quietly appeared.

The person, being watched by the Sharingan, felt as if they were being stared at by a venomous snake, and a suffocating sensation washed over them.

"If anyone asks, just say that Uchiha Sora took him away," Uchiha Sora said calmly, lifting the white sheet and gazing at the peaceful face for a long while.

He then picked up Uzuki Kazunari and walked outside, without even glancing at the ninja.
