Chapter 419
Sakura discovered that when Sasuke was staring at Sai, Sai beside him actually drew out the short knife from his back without hesitation and decisively met Sasuke's sharp gaze.
Sasuke's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a contemptuous smile, but his eyes revealed a hint of coldness: "That guy, is he my candidate? What an ignorant idiot... ...and he keeps saying that he wants to protect the bond between Naruto and me? How ridiculous!"
Sakura was confused but also understood something. She just wondered if this guy didn't just take orders as the only thing. "Sai, what exactly is your mission..."
However, Sai's eyes never left Sasuke, as if he was in a silent confrontation with him.
He answered Sakura's question slowly, more like talking to himself, trying to solve the mystery in his heart: "The secret mission I took over was indeed to assassinate Sasuke, but now this order is no longer important to me. Now, I just want to follow my heart. It was Naruto who helped me regain that forgotten memory... That feeling is really special. Although I don't quite understand it, it may be worth cherishing.
Although I don't know you very well, there must be a reason why Naruto and Sakura chased you here at all costs. They don't want to give up the bond between them and you, and they desperately want to maintain this relationship. Although I still can't fully understand it, Sasuke, you should be able to understand it. "
Sasuke closed his eyes tightly and opened his thin lips: "Yes, I understand."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly opened his eyes, his ink-black pupils emitting a heart-pounding indifference, as if everything in the world had nothing to do with him.
Sakura looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar Sasuke in front of her, and couldn't help but ask, "So I have to give it up?"
She knew how deep the hatred in Sasuke's heart was, and understood why he was so determined.
However, when they thought about the countless ups and downs they had experienced together, that deep friendship had already been deeply imprinted in each other's hearts.
Sakura has always disapproved of Sasuke's extreme behavior of giving up all emotional ties for the sake of revenge. When revenge is achieved, she may feel lost and even unable to find the value of life.
But as mentioned before, how can we easily judge and make decisions for others if we have never experienced their suffering ourselves?
At this moment, the sky above my head was as blue as a mirror, and the sun was shining, bringing a hint of warmth. But for some reason, a chill surged from the bottom of my heart, making me feel cold all over.
As for Uchiha Itachi... Sakura has complicated feelings towards this person.
At least the impression he left on himself was always polite and gentle; but when it came to treating Sasuke, he was unusually harsh and even almost cruel.
Why is this happening? Sakura really can't figure out the reason...
She didn't know what Uchiha Itachi and Sasuke talked about when they met that day, but there was no doubt that Sasuke's transformation began on that day.
Sasuke's dark eyes were like a pool of stagnant water, without any ripples, making it difficult to see the deep emotional fluctuations hidden in them. He just said lightly: "I have other things to worry about."
His tone was as calm as a river in winter, yet it seemed particularly cold and firm.
