"Ōnoki, you catch on fast!" Uchiha Yin said with a smile. Ōnoki stared back at him coldly.
Uchiha Yin could have killed Ōnoki outright.
That would have settled things once and for all.
But Uchiha Yin was not bloodthirsty. If there was another way to resolve this, he had no desire to kill.
"Since you're showing such sincerity, Ōnoki, I suppose I can't refuse."

Even knowing that, Ōnoki had
