Chapter 1257 The Past Is Like Smoke

Halfway through the fraud plan designed by Shikamaru, not only did it fail to prove Duran's guilt, but it proved that Duran was really a good person. There were basically no flaws in what Duran said. Because he cared about Sasuke's life, he agreed to help Orochimaru rescue Kimimaro. As for Sasuke's defection, it was not something that could be expected. However, these things are closely related to Orochimaru, and everything is Orochimaru's fault. Anyway, Duran didn't do anything.

Shikamaru, pretending to be Kabuto, continued to ask: "I didn't expect that you still value the disciple who betrayed you so much, and you are willing to put so many people at risk for his brother." Although Shikamaru basically believed it, for the sake of protection It still doesn't make sense that a single Sasuke, Duran, pushed all twelve people from four classes onto the battlefield.

"Hinata is my goddaughter. Neji and Xiao Li have received my guidance every day. The four of them have the strength to fight with the Kage level. During World War II, the three ninjas became famous in one battle. I believe I taught them "The children are not bad. And I have full confidence in Shikamaru who is in charge of the task." This is all true. Dulan really thinks that the two of them can challenge the shadows and even go to the mainland to start a business.

There was nothing to say. Shikamaru also thought that the strength of the four of them was indeed strong and that the others seemed to be holding them back in the battle. He could only admit that Duran's confidence was justified. Facts also proved that except Sasuke, everyone else was still alive. Although Kimimaro was lost, other prisoners were captured.

"You are really confident. If I were you, I would not dare to let Sasuke go on a mission even though I knew he was in danger." Shikamaru continued, hoping to clear up all the doubts.

"Sooner or later, what happened with Itachi was a huge blow to Sasuke. If it hadn't been for me, maybe the result would have been different." Dulan was about to say something but stopped and said, "You go away, don't show up again, next time." I will hand you over to the Konoha ANBU once. They know a thousand and one torture methods. Even if you are an iron man, you will be drained by them. I think you are not willing to betray Orochimaru."

...This was a warning. Shikamaru knew that if he stayed any longer, he would most likely be sent to ANBU, which would not be fun.

"Lord Orochimaru will never forget you." Let's go. Although there is an inside story about the betrayal a few years ago, we can't find out today.

This is the story of the elders, a past that young people know nothing about.

Dulan aroused their interest in a very bad way, and then ended the topic in a very bad way, leaving them itchy and helpless.

Shikamaru quickly left and returned to where everyone was gathered, looking thoughtful. Others were also disturbed by Dulan's last words. It has obviously been proven that Dulan is a good person, but now it is discovered that there seems to be an inside story behind the betrayal of the genius of the Uchiha family, and the inside story is related to Dulan. What is the truth behind this?

Everyone wants to know.

"Shikamaru, why did you leave so soon? If there is another reason for Sasuke's brother's matter, you should ask clearly." It was Ino who spoke. Although she knew that she and Sasuke could not be together, she still cared about the handsome guy. of.

Shikamaru shook his head: "At that time, I felt a very strong momentum erupted from Principal Dulan, which made me uneasy. I had no choice but to leave first, otherwise I would be exposed."

"It doesn't matter if he is exposed, my godfather is not a petty person." Hinata smiled with a smile on her face, which proved that Dulan was a good person, and she felt relieved: "Even if he was betrayed by his disciples, he still always remembers their good deeds. He also said that Senior Itachi was his most proud disciple and he never blamed them."

"Maybe they have some reasons." Neji has now learned to put himself in others' shoes. Anyway, now he has to transcend the Byakugan and look at things from a higher level.

Everyone thought hard, but they couldn't understand Itachi's difficulties. In short, although the doubt of whether Duran was a spy was solved, an old case of the Uchiha family was revealed.

"The principal seems to think that the disciple's betrayal is related to him. I really want to know what happened in the past." Ino's gossip was exposed, and he couldn't sleep without knowing the answer.

Shikamaru also said helplessly: "I'm afraid only the principal and his apprentices know about these things. If they don't tell them, the truth will probably be covered up forever." In fact, he had several possibilities in mind, one was to be an undercover agent; Because Duran didn't teach them well and blamed himself; thirdly, Itachi and Zhisui really betrayed Duran for some reasons. Of course, there is another possibility that Itachi and Shisui saw Duran's true face and betrayed him in order to protect themselves. However, the last possibility had been eliminated in the previous test, so this idea just flashed through Shikamaru's mind and did not stop.

"Everyone must keep this matter a secret." In the end, Shikamaru didn't want the principal's test to be exposed, so everyone nodded in agreement.

Hinata actually always wanted to know why Duran's two disciples betrayed her. She felt it couldn't be because their surname was Uchiha. Now that she knew the reason might be related to Dulan, she was even more curious. She didn't understand how Dulan's disciples could betray him? She was thinking about asking Duran.

Finally, she decided to go and ask. She found Ningji and planned to go and ask together.

Neji hesitated for a while and then agreed. He also wanted to know the truth.

So that night, the two of them paid a visit and asked Duran straight to the point: "Godfather, why did your two former disciples betray Konoha?" Hinata looked at Duran seriously, expecting Duran's answer.

Du Lanxin said that he knew it would arouse your curiosity. He raised his head and looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle. For a while, the other courtyard was quiet and only the sound of the wind could be heard.

"This has to start with the history of the Uchiha family." Duran told the story without any intention of hiding anything. He told the story of Itachi and Shisui worrying about Konoha and the family. In the end, in order to save the family, they listened to Duran's advice and chose a thorny road.

Tell everything.

When the past was revealed and the dusk appeared in front of them, a wave of sorrow came over them. The originally vague figures in their hearts became three-dimensional. The betrayers Itachi and Shisui also became predecessors who could be truly respected.

Hinata was so moved that she cried. She didn't expect that there would be such a great person in the world who was willing to sacrifice himself for the sake of everyone's success: "Godfather, why can't there be a better result?" She hoped for a happy ending.

"The situation was very complicated at that time. The Uchiha family wanted to rebel, and Konoha was also preparing to use this opportunity to eliminate their power. The villagers also had a bad attitude towards the Uchiha family. And during the Nine-Tails Rebellion, everyone thought that it was the Uchiha family who did it, so I had to take a risk and put my most outstanding disciple on the opposite side of the public, letting him attract all the hatred and avoid a greater tragedy." He said with a sad face.

Knowing the old past, the two white eyes also felt for the first time that the battlefield was not only outside the village, but the political struggle in the village was also as treacherous. At the same time, they also knew that none of the disciples taught by Duran were bad people. It was indeed a good teacher who produced good students.
