Offer your loyalty and Chimera Technique.

Every word seemed to be forced out of Hiruko's throat, smelling like blood foam.

Menma looked at Hiruko quietly, and the corners of his mouth under the white Three-Eyed Fox Mask seemed to move upward slightly, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The invisible, breathless killing intent quietly receded like the tide, as if it had never appeared.

"Very good." Two plain words announced the end of this transaction.

Hiruko collapsed on the ground completely exhausted, gasping for air. Cold sweat had completely soaked the bandage under the restraints and clung to the cold skin.

Soon, Menma took Hiruko and returned to Star City with Flying Thunder God Technique.

In a well-guarded underground prison built of solid rock.

The heavy iron door opened, making a dull friction sound.

Menma walked in with Hiruko, who was described as a wolf and fox and still looked pale.

The interior space of the prison is not small, but there are only simple stone beds, tables and chairs, and the light is dim.

The air is filled with the earthy smell of rocks and a subtle Sealing Jutsu-style energy fluctuation.

"Stay here for now." Menma's voice was without any emotion, as if he was stating something insignificant.

Hiruko lowered his head, but reluctance and resentment shone deep in his eyes, as well as a hint of rekindled luck that was not easy to detect.

Surrender is nothing more than a last resort·

The sound of footsteps came from deep inside the prison, and a slender figure slowly walked out of the shadows.

Uchiha Hikari walked up to the two of them.

She was wearing Uchiha Clan's iconic dark blue high-collar ethnic uniform, with the Gunbai family emblem embroidered on her chest. Her long black hair was draped softly behind her shoulders, with a few strands of hair hanging down beside her fair cheeks.

Her face was delicate but had an almost transparent coldness, and her dark eyes were like deep pools, staring at Hiruko calmly. "Where is Kakuzu?" Menma looked around, but did not find the dark figure of Kakuzu.

The person in charge of the prison is usually Anbu Captain Kakuzu.

Uchiha Hikari explained, "Gato is going to Land of Water. Something seems to have happened to the company over there. I sent Kakuzu to go with him."

"Yeah." Menma nodded. Although Gato was implanted with "Blood Pact Cursed Seal", he still had no resistance when encountering some powerful ninjas.

Gato usually travels to inspect commercial companies in various countries, and Kakuzu is responsible for the escort mission.

There will be some private transactions between the two, and Gato will hire Kakuzu to deal with some disobedient guys or competitors.

Kakuzu is also happy to make a little money.

While the two were communicating, Hiruko raised his head and saw Uchiha Hikari. He was slightly relieved at first, and then the trace of luck in his eyes instantly turned into a huge sense of absurdity and a trace of uncontrollable contempt.

A little girl from the Uchiha ninja clan?

Even though he recognized the other party as Uchiha Clan, he was a little surprised that a member of the Uchiha tribe from Konoha would appear in Land of Stars and under Asura.

But Hiruko is still a little contemptuous.

The little girl in front of him looks to be only fourteen or fifteen years old. Such a slender, even sickly little girl is here to guard him?

Asura Is he too confident, or does he look down on him at all?

Hiruko, who was at the same time as Sannin, had never seen the power of Uchiha Madara or the glorious heyday of the Uchiha Clan.

The knowledge of the Uchiha Clan is limited to the largest ninja clan who owns Sharingan, a top-notch Kekkei Genkai.

He quickly glanced inside the prison. There were guards at the door, but they didn't seem to be tight.

He couldn't feel any strong sense of oppression from the girl in front of him. Maybe it was because Uchiha Clan was so arrogant?

Maybe his chance has come -

Just restrain this girl and use her identity!

This thought grew like poison ivy in his heart.

The humiliation of being crushed by Asura and the anger of being forced to surrender have now turned into the motivation to take risks.

He needs a chance and needs to regain control of his destiny!

A humble smile appeared on Hiruko's face, he bent slightly and quietly moved a small step forward, approaching Uchiha Hikari.

His eyes were like venomous snakes roving over Uchiha Hikari's body, looking for flaws and opportunities to take action.

Menma seemed not to notice his little thoughts, and walked straight to Uchiha Hikari, handing over the ancient scroll that recorded the core of Chimera Technique.

"Put this away and give it to the Medical Department." Menma's voice was still calm. "The matter over there hasn't been resolved yet, I have to go out again."

"Okay." Uchiha Hikari stretched out his white hand and silently took the scroll.

Her movements were very gentle, as if she was afraid of disturbing something, but her eyes never left Hiruko.

At the moment when Menma handed over the scroll, his attention seemed to be slightly distracted!

Hiruko's eyes flashed fiercely!

That's it now!

He raised his hands hidden in his sleeves suddenly, and at the same time as the bandage was shot out, his body rushed towards the seemingly defenseless Uchiha Hikari like an arrow from a string!

As fast as a ghost, the target was pointed directly at her neck!

He wants to defeat the enemy with one blow and take hostages!

However, the moment Hiruko took action, Uchiha Hikari's pair of lacquered Black Eye eyes that had always been as calm as a deep pool suddenly changed!

Like the dark night being torn apart by blood!

Three pitch-black Tomoes rotated, stretched, and deformed crazily in the blood-colored pupils!

It turned into a pair of complex and strange patterns - Mangekyō Sharingan!

These eyes seemed to be gazing from the abyss, instantly occupying Hiruko's entire field of vision and slamming into the depths of his soul!

Hiruko All the forward momentum, all the condensed chakra, and all the ferocious thoughts were completely frozen by an indescribable and terrifying pupil power as vast as the sea of stars at the moment they met these eyes!

Time seemed to have stopped at this moment.

His thoughts fell into an absolute blank, his body remained froze in mid-air in a forward posture, and the expression on his face became comical shock.

There was no earth-shattering loud noise, no dazzling ninjutsu light.

There is only silent crushing.

Uchiha Hikari stood there quietly, and the pattern in Mangekyō Sharingan slowly rotated.

She didn't even make any extra moves, she just looked at Hiruko.

Although Hiruko's stiff body still maintained the movement of attacking, his eyes began to turn white, his mouth drooled, his body twitched slightly unconsciously, and his consciousness was completely lost in the boundless Tsukuyomi World composed of the pair of Mangekyo.

What ambitions and calculations are so fragile in front of Mangekyō Sharingan's eye skills.

Menma At this moment, it seemed as if he had just finished handling a small matter, turned around and walked out of the prison.

His footsteps did not pause at all, as if everything that happened behind him was taken for granted, leaving only one light sentence:

"Don't kill me."

The iron door slowly closed, cutting off all sounds in the prison.
