Chapter Twenty-Five: Jealousy

  Shiro stared at the girl who suddenly appeared in front of him and the adult, only remembering that she was a senior student who often bothered him, apparently named Kawakami Chitose. She was said to be highly talented, good-looking, and would graduate at the age of ten. There were many rumors about her in school, and he seemed to have been invited to her house before. The Kawakami family was also a well-known family, being a branch of the famous Kiri ninja clan's main family, the Kawayama family, so they had a lot of books at home. Shiro had gone there many times before and finally finished reading all of them, so he had some impression of her.

  But this can't be compared with the time spent with adults, Bai Yi's normally gentle face turned cold as he shouted: "Get out of my way!"

  "I won't leave, Snow or White, unless you give me an explanation!" Kawakami Chitose spread her arms and stubbornly blocked White's way.

  "Scram!" Bai didn't want to talk to anyone now, and was only worried that a big movement would wake me up. He thought of going around Kawachi Chitose's side, completely ignoring her.

  "Yuki-kun, what's going on with you two saying you'll leave in three months?" Kawakami Chitose still stood in front of Shiro, speaking her mind.

  "Let me through!" Bai's tone was increasingly mixed with anger, Bai knew that my current physical condition was absolutely not suitable for continuing to stay on this windy hillside, Bai just wanted to send me to his place as soon as possible.

  "What a racket! Still not here?" I just felt a buzzing noise in my ear.

  "Sorry, sir, why don't you take a nap for a while? We'll arrive soon." Bai's tone was gentle, as if he were handling the most precious treasure.

  I nodded dazedly.

  Senjou Chihiro found the expression on Hakujin's face to be a gentleness that had not been seen all year, yet it was directed at a young whippersnapper. "No way, I won't let you. You'd better explain what's going on clearly. And another thing, Hakujin, why are you calling a little brat like him an adult?"

  "Don't scold me, I don't need to explain anything."

  "I don't care, Snow, even if I die, I must know what's going on, what this stinky brat is all about!" Kawakami Chitose rushed up and grabbed Bai's left arm, pulling and tugging, insisting on getting an answer.

  "Ah... ah" wasn't it said that we're almost there? Why is it so dizzy, swaying back and forth, making me inhale cold air, I couldn't help but start coughing.

  Bai, while being pulled by Kawakami Chitose, heard my cough and frowned, her expression turned cold. She adjusted her right hand to hold me alone, then slapped Kawakami's left cheek with a backhand, after that, she completely ignored Kawakami and accelerated her departure. Bai thought it was better to go back early anyway, as this place wasn't suitable for sleeping well either.

  Senjougahara Hitagi crouched down, her cheeks flushed red as she gazed at me enjoying White's gentle warmth, a pang of discontent in her heart, and then picked up a hidden weapon and threw it my way.

  "Bitter nothingness, sword in hand, and explosive talismans!" Bai noticed the commotion beside him, but it was too close, and his hands were still holding me, unable to form a seal to block the hidden weapons. He could only try to shift his body to the side, attempting to minimize the incoming damage and prevent me from getting hurt.

  "Alas." I couldn't help but sigh, the prosthetic beast claw was very useful, it was one of the few ninjutsu that didn't require hand seals on my body, and it had indeed blocked all the hidden weapon damage and explosions. However, some of the impact force still fed back to me, if I were in a normal state it would be fine, but...

  A sharp pain came from his chest, "Cough cough... Waaaah!" Was it a disaster out of the blue or should I call it a woman's curse?

  I didn't expect that I would block another hidden weapon attack, and this time it was absolutely not a shadow clone. Bai noticed the fresh blood at the corner of my mouth (the impact was too sudden, accidentally biting my lip) "Sir!"

  "What kind of ninjutsu was that! I didn't see any hand seals, nor did I hear any incantations, yet it blocked all my hidden weapons. Could it be... the Bloodline Limit?!" Kawakami Chitose exclaimed in astonishment at what had just happened.

  I furrowed my brow, although I wasn't using Blood Inheritance, but I couldn't let the Mist Shinobi investigate me because of the Tail Beast on my body. Moreover, there was a limit to Blood Inheritance, and for these few years, the Mist Shinobi had been hunting down people with Blood Inheritance. This girl already knew too much, no matter what happened between White and me before, how much did she see? "White, kill her." I believed that White should still have the ability to kill a genin-level shinobi at most, I couldn't leave any useless threats behind.

  Shiro heard what I said, but hesitated a bit, "Sir, Kawakami-senpai shouldn't be talking nonsense, so it's still necessary to...?"

  I silently gaze at Bai, I know that Bai cannot forget the scene of killing his father, Bai dares not to kill people...

  But you not killing people doesn't mean others won't kill you, and not killing you doesn't mean they won't harm the people around you, Bai.

  This heart disease is very serious. In "Naruto", Bai has been fifteen years old and died under Senbazuru without killing anyone.

  I must find a way to deal with it. "White, you should know that what is meant by 'letting someone off' is when your strength can completely withstand all the revenge of the person you 'let off', only then can it be established. 'Letting someone off' is the privilege of the strong."

  "You're still far from being a strong person. And when the weak try to take what doesn't belong to them, they have to pay the price."

  "Then, adults......"

  I saw that girl's eyes filled with intense resentment and jealousy, all directed at me. Looking at this fiery gaze, I'll let her off the hook! "Bai is indeed kind-hearted, but since Bai asked for the first time, let her off the hook, but you have to guarantee she won't spread it out!" I'm afraid that if I let her off, she won't want to let me off either.

  When Kawakami Chiyoda heard the little demon in Bai Jun's arms say "Kill her", she indeed felt a thick killing intent enveloping herself, making her completely unable to move. It wasn't until Bai Jun pleaded with that evil demon-like little thing for her sake that the killing intent completely disappeared, as if it had never appeared at all. However, the cold sweat on her body was not fake.

  "Kawakami-senpai, I'll leave first. I hope what just happened won't be told to a third person."

  "Yes, this is a secret between you and me!" Kawakami Chitose was slightly excited but soon calmed down by me.

  "Cough... White, let's go. If I see her making any strange moves, I'll take care of it my own way." I reminded White with a double meaning, but White apparently didn't notice the subtlety in my words.

  "Kawakami-senpai isn't the type to blab."

  "Hehe, let's go then, or we'll be too late for dinner." Forget it, you'll understand later, Bai.

  Then, Bai simply carried me back as if nothing had happened, completely ignoring Kawakami Chitose without even a glance, not killing her, but only because he didn't want to kill anyone, having absolutely no relation to "wanting to save her".

  Before leaving, I was satisfied to see the expression in her eyes that I wanted, hoping that this ugly seed could bloom into a flower that would satisfy me.

  Senjou Chihiro stood still, gazing at Shiraki's back, (This little devil actually threatened to take my life and ordered Shiraki around!) and completely self-centeredly imagined the "reality" she desired.

  I must stop Shirai from falling into his clutches. Kawakami Chitose thought.
