Chapter 254 The First Seat
Under the golden tree.
It took Sasuke a long time to understand his current situation from Jinbe's words.
"So... your shark-faced appearance isn't some alien from the Land of Water, but rather a race called fish-men... and this large half-fish-man is called a mermaid?"
"Not the ninja world..."
Sasuke looked at Shirahoshi with a serious expression.
Such a huge body, it feels very strong...
"ah!!"
After only two seconds of eye contact, Shirahoshi was so frightened that she shrank behind Jinbe and almost cried.
"Don't look at Princess Shirahoshi with such a fierce gaze; she's rather timid."
Jinbe wiped the sweat from his forehead, looking very tired.
He brought Shirahoshi to report to Allen, just as Allen woke Sasuke up and threw him over to Jinbe to do the explanation.
Just leave one sentence,
"My poor relatives from a small town don't know anything, so I'll start by introducing them to the simplest things. I'm going to eat first."
Jinbe talked for a whole day, and also gave Shirahoshi a lesson in world geography.
Even Bai Xing, who hadn't left the house in many years, understood some of the things, but the handsome young man in front of her still looked confused and had to be explained several times.
Moreover, he wasn't obedient from the start; it took Jinbe a lot of effort to keep him in check before he was willing to listen.
He looks so cool and handsome, but isn't he the intelligent type...?
……
"Hmm... I guess the steps for explaining the world-building are complete now?"
Bang! !
Allen, chewing on something, tossed a huge piece of leg meat to Jinbe: "Pretty difficult, huh? Thanks for your hard work."
"How could that be? Your relative, General, is very... very handsome!" Jinbe hesitated for a long time, but still couldn't bring himself to say that he was very intelligent.
Sasuke turned to look at Allen, the word "family" touching him deeply.
Given his personality, the fact that his most important revenge battle had been thwarted would have made him furious.
If it weren't for wanting to wait for Allen, he wouldn't have had the patience to listen to Jinbe's nonsense.
"Uchiha Allen... what a strange name."
Allen smiled faintly: "No one said that before. There are quite a few people with names that are stranger than mine."
Sasuke pondered for a moment before stating his conclusion: "So, you were brought into this world for some reason, and escaped the night of the clan's annihilation?"
"Half right, half wrong."
Allen shook his finger: "It wasn't that I escaped the Night of the Massacre; if I were there, there would never have been a Night of the Massacre."
"If the timeline is the same, I would have awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan eight years ago. Even if I didn't wipe out those people from Konoha, I would at least have the ability to lead the Uchiha clan away."
……
Sasuke lowered his head, his emotions unreadable, but his voice was hoarse: "Did we miss it...? I can't blame you. It must have been very difficult for you to find a way back to the ninja world..."
thump—
A small pebble hit Sasuke squarely on the forehead.
"What are you doing!"
Allen shook his head helplessly: "I've already been so blunt, don't you know how to get to the point?"
"It's only because Jinbe doesn't know about us that I really don't want to explain it to you; it's too much trouble."
"Kind-hearted, intelligence unknown."
Important...
Sasuke pondered Allen's words intently, his eyes widening in disbelief...
"What are you talking about... You should kill Itachi, what does this have to do with the people of Konoha!"
"Why did you take the Uchiha clan with you?!"
……
Allen stroked his chin and said calmly, "To put it simply..."
"At that time, the Uchiha clan was planning to rebel, and Itachi Uchiha reached an agreement with the Konoha leadership."
"Konoha cannot define the Uchiha as traitors. The most important thing is to protect you, and then he will personally exterminate the clan."
The amount of information was so overwhelming that Sasuke's expression froze.
Allen waited patiently for a while before continuing, "I'm not surprised that he made this choice, after all, he's already been tamed."
"Besides you and me, there are very few people in the Uchiha clan who can think normally, Sasuke."
"You and I are in the same boat; if faced with this situation—"
Allen leaned close to Sasuke, his smile carrying a chilling undertone: "They'd rather fight to the death than let those old bastards get away with it!"
……
……
Allen gently patted Sasuke's shoulder and took out a lunchbox from his pocket.
"Eat something to calm down. Believe it or not, it's up to you. Don't say anything like 'I'm lying to you' or anything like that."
……
Sasuke gripped the wooden box tightly, his fingertips digging into splinters, staining it with blood.
He looked up, his eyes bloodshot.
"You too... Do you want to control me too?!"
……
Allen stood up and said with a faint smile, "You could say that, but I'll tell you everything."
"Compared to some people, at least you have a choice, after all, your surname is Uchiha."
……
He turned and walked towards Jinbe, completing the change in his expression.
"I'm Allen, nice to meet you, Miss Shirahoshi~"
"You...hello, I know you, General..."
Shirahoshi didn't realize that Jinbe's small size was no match for her, and her timidly leaning out was a bit unnecessary.
……
"Jinbe told you, didn't he? I want you to become my disciple...someone like your father's personal guard, understand?"
Compared to his conversation with Sasuke, Allen was noticeably more patient, and his tone was much gentler.
It wasn't because of appearance or gender; Allen didn't care about looks or gender. In his eyes, no one was prettier than him anyway.
Because Shirahoshi is a little girl, Allen has always been very gentle with children.
Is Sasuke a child too?
Don't be ridiculous. Ninjas start killing at the age of twelve, and those who are more skilled start at four or five. They have absolutely nothing to do with the word "children".
……
Shirahoshi nodded, clutching her chest with both hands: "But...but can I do it? Protecting the Commander-in-Chief is something like that..."
"You can do it! Believe in yourself, Shirahoshi, you're very strong!"
Allen encouraged him, "I need the power you possess, not now."
"I will train you slowly, and one day you will be of great help to me!"
"Are you feeling uneasy leaving home? I have a mermaid lady here; let her and Jinbe take care of you."
……
At the auction of the Float-Float Fruit, Doflamingo, in his arrogance, gifted Allen a mermaid named Shasa.
At the time, Aya was busy having a party with Kaido, while Shasha was taken back to the base first.
They were originally going to send her to Mermaid Island, but she said she wasn't a resident of Mermaid Island and that her parents had left the sea many years ago.
It was a poignant love story between a human and a mermaid.
The reason for her tragic beauty...
Because Xia Sha's parents are dead.
When a human and a mermaid mate, their offspring are generally human. However, she is very rare in that she inherited the bloodline of a mermaid and is even more beautiful than the average mermaid.
She knew very well that going to Fishman Island wouldn't save her from danger, and staying under Allen's command was the only safe option.
……
Allen turned to Jinbe, his smile fading.
"I will establish a personal guard called the Gotei 12, with Shirahoshi having one seat, and you will be her adjutant."
"Are you willing?"
Jinbe knelt solemnly on one knee: "I obey the Commander-in-Chief's orders! It is an honor to protect you and Princess Shirahoshi!"
