Naruto: Lama Tobi was exposed by the sky curtain

Chapter 454 The Prison

[Black Zetsu: What the hell! You can save people, but why did you seal me up?!]

[Mai Shiranui: Ahaha, well, I can't help it, your Yin-Yang Release is too powerful, and your mental strength is too strong. I'm worried that genjutsu won't work on you.]

[Black Zetsu: Alright, so that explains why I was a bit confused about one part of my memory back then. Turns out it was your doing. But we finally managed to find a candidate that time, oh well.]

[Mai Shiranui: Alright, stop looking so gloomy. Your mom's still eyeing my dad, right? Who knows, we might become brothers someday. Let's not be so petty between brothers.]

[Black Zetsu: What the hell?!]

Kaguya Otsutsuki: ! ?

【Shiranui Neya: ?】

[Screen continues...]

Xiao Wu infiltrated the outskirts of the Uchiha camp and found a patrolling squad.

He used an illusion spell to control them directly, and from their memories, he found the cell where the nameless person was imprisoned.

"Tsk tsk tsk, these Uchiha lunatics are truly an eyesore."

…………

Xiao Wu did not choose to continue hiding her whereabouts, but decisively stopped her lurking actions and quickly formed hand seals.

"Nadeshiko-ryu: Phantom Body!"

A strange energy fluctuation instantly emanated from his body.

This is a technique that skillfully uses illusionary power to alter one's own state. By applying this special illusion to oneself, one can greatly weaken one's aura and presence to the outside world, making it difficult for others to detect one's existence or to pay any attention to or have any doubts about one.

Thanks to her clear memory of the route information deep in the squad leader's mind, Xiao Wu successfully arrived at her destination—a heavily guarded prison cell.

As he stepped into this place, his eyes were immediately drawn to the incredibly sturdy fences, but what was even more striking were the flame-sealing talismans tightly attached to the surface of the fences.

"Oh dear, what kind of serious criminals are being held here? Using innocent girls as weapons, this Warring States period is truly disgusting."

Wuming naturally sensed that someone was outside the cell, but having already lost all hope in the outside world, she simply squatted there, burying her head in her knees, unwilling to pay any attention to the outsiders.

The next moment, Wuming felt as if something was missing in front of her. When she looked up, she was stunned to see a cute and handsome young man ignoring the bars in front of the cell and walking straight in.

"Oh, looks like I'm not late."

Xiao Wu greeted Wuming.

"?"

Wuming didn't know what he was saying, but seemed to understand that he was being greeted. However, he believed that as a weapon, he shouldn't have feelings, so he didn't respond.

Xiao Wu didn't feel disgusted. After all, when it comes to being cold and ruthless, her third sister was second to none (Momoshiki, who had to keep smiling even after being dissected alive by Xiao Ai, knew this all too well).

Xiao Wu sat down in a spot neither too close nor too far from Wuming. After thinking for a moment, she started to make conversation, saying in a relaxed tone, "Innocent Uchiha girl, wouldn't you like to go outside and see the scenery?"

To this, Nameless replied coldly, with a hint of sadness in his voice, "I am a weapon... I remain in my cell on standby until given orders, and I cannot leave even in the event of an emergency..."

"This is my mission, and I must obey it..."

Xiao Wu frowned, a hint of displeasure on her face, and then said in a slightly reproachful tone, "Who made this rule? Is that person your biological parents or legal guardians?"

Upon hearing this, Wuming felt confused and bewildered. She couldn't understand what this person was saying.

Although the other person's tone clearly carried a hint of reproach, for some reason, Wuming could clearly sense that it also contained an indescribable concern and care.

Xiao Wu's lips curled into a charming smile, and she continued in a soft, seductive voice, "A sweet and innocent girl like you should be wearing bright and beautiful clothes and enjoying all kinds of exquisite and delicious food! After all, life is short, and we should all treat ourselves well and live our own wonderful lives! How can we treat ourselves like a cold and emotionless weapon?"

"Innocent? Cute?"

Hearing Xiao Wu praise her like that, Wuming lowered her head even further, as if afraid Xiao Wu would see her like that. She said self-deprecatingly, "I am not naive, nor am I cute. I am Wuming, merely a weapon. I will not cry, I will not waver, I will not run away. I can only endure the pain until I die..."

This time, Xiao Wu didn't refute, but instead smiled and nodded.

"Yes, in this era, there are many people like you who are used as weapons, unable to live for themselves, and are merely objects with useful value. This is a consensus in many places."

Hearing Xiao Wu say this, Wuming's heart sank even further. Yes, he was always just a valuable object.

"but……"

Xiao Wu stood up and changed her tone.

"If this kind of thing becomes a reality, then the fault lies not with you, but with this era. Xiao Guang, you are the miracle of this era, not weapons."

Xiao Wu reached out her hand to Xiao Guang.

"Xiao Guang?"

"Yes, this is the name your parents gave to their most beloved daughter. You have someone who likes you, and I'm willing to be your friend too."

"So you are not a weapon, you are your parents' pride, my friend—Xiao Guang."

Hearing this, Xiaoguang's eyes gradually welled up with tears. She had never imagined that she could have a name, let alone expect that, besides her parents, she could receive such sincere and profound friendship and love from others. At this moment, a warm current, which she had never had before—no, had forgotten—surged into her heart, immersing her in happiness.

"So, my friend, how about we go see the world together? Let's smash this awful era together!"

Xiao Wu stretched out her hand in front of Xiao Guang.

Xiaoguang stared at him, unable to recover for a long time, but she still tried to reach out her hand. The moment their hands touched, Xiaoguang seemed to hear the sound of something breaking.

Xiao Wu smiled and took Xiao Guang's hand as they walked out of the prison.

When Xiaoguang saw the talisman on the fence, she was about to warn them, but she was surprised to find that she had actually passed through the fence.

The moment she passed through the fence, she heard the sound of chains breaking again, and she felt an unprecedented sense of relief.

At the same time, the cage that had imprisoned her for her entire life... collapsed.
