Chapter 82 - The Real Protagonist's ConspircayNaruto’s tone barely fell; the ‘coughing’ ninja immediately stopped leaving.
What no one noticed was that the face hidden under his mask was shocked.
Because Naruto was right, he is indeed called “Shin”!
He indeed has a younger brother named Sai!
The question is, how can Naruto, who is being held in the cell, guess his identity? Even if he guessed his identity, how would he know that he has a younger brother named Sai?
The shocked expression hidden under the mask quickly calmed down again. In order not to arouse suspicion from other people, Shin still vetoed Naruto’s question: “Sorry, I think, you got the wrong person. I am not Shin, nor have a younger brother named Sai.”
After that, Shin left.
He only sympathized with Naruto’s experience, so he gave him some guidance, hoping to help Naruto live a little better here. But this does not mean that he is willing to cause unnecessary trouble for Naruto and cause him and Sai to be in danger!
However, when Naruto saw Shin stopped, how could he let this opportunity pass?
Naruto, who was still hesitant, said the whole sentence that Li Yaoxiang taught him. “My big brother told me, if you don’t want Sai to be trapped in this Root’s cage, come back here tonight!”
‘Big brother?’
‘Cage?’
What did Naruto say about big brother?
The more information Naruto revealed, the more surprised Shin was!
As one of Root’s key members, of course, he had heard the news about ‘Naruto has a big brother’. What made him didn’t expect was that Naruto would actually admit this matter in this situation.
If Naruto didn’t say the words’ big brother’, maybe Shin would ignore him and report the news to Shimura Danzo. However, Shin, this time, was stopped by Naruto’s remarks only for a moment, and soon he stepped away again




Time passed. Time soon came that night.
Outside Naruto’s cell.
There should be no one in the corridor at this time, but a faint cough sounded.
“Cough, cough, cough.”
With this coughing sound alone, it is obvious that ‘Shin’ is trying to control his own coughing sound as much as possible, just to prevent people from discovering that he was ever here.
He came quietly to the iron cage of Naruto. He bent his body close to the iron gate.
Just when he wanted to say something, a cold voice came out of the door: “You’re here?”
When he heard this sound, he couldn’t help but be startled. He was very sure that only Naruto was in the cell
 But no matter the tone of this voice, it is impossible for a 7-year-old child to make the sound.
“You are the big brother that Uzumaki Naruto mentioned?”
The reason why Shin comes here is to understand why the big brother in Naruto’s mouth knows so much information about him. He probably wouldn’t mind that much if it is about himself, but the problem is
 Why even his most valued person, his younger brother, Sai, was mentioned?! How did the so-called ‘big brother’ know so much?!
You know, in order to conceal from Shimura Danzo that he loves Sai, he would get along with him only on weekdays but very carefully.
It stands to reason that this matter should not be discovered.
Even if it is found, it should not be by the ‘big brother’ that I’ve never met before!
The iron gate for food was opened.
On the other side of the iron gate, ‘Naruto’ was leaning against the iron wall and sitting on the ground.
Exactly. He should not be called Naruto now. Instead, he should be called Li Yaoxiang!
Li Yaoxiang did not answer Shin’s question. He straightly said what Shin cares most about: “Do you want to help Sai get out of this cage?”
The expression concealed beneath the mask: “What do you mean?”
“You don’t have to act stupid in front of me. What I said should be very obvious in your heart.” Li Yaoxiang continued refuting Shin, “Shimura Danzo will find out about your relationship with Sai sooner or later. At that time, there will inevitably be terror to the two of you. ”
Shin even took a breath.
He couldn’t be clearer!
At Root, no personal feelings are allowed
. As Shimura Danzo’s good assistant, he understood that. If Shimura Danzo discovers any Root’s ninja has feelings for a certain person. Then this so-called Danzo-sama will surely let this root ninja kill this ‘person’ with their own hands!
If you don’t kill, then they both will die together!
The situation between him and Sai is, of course, exactly what Li Yaoxiang said.
From the two, only one can survive!
This is what he intends to avoid currently.
The question is, why does ‘he’ understand so clearly?
This is the secret that the internal members of the Root will know. All Root members have been engraved with the “Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal”. It is impossible to disclose things about Danzo.
[*TL note: Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal. This cursed seal is given to all members of the Anbu subgroup Root by Danzƍ Shimura, to ensure no information about him or the organisation fell into the wrong hands. After Danzƍ died, the seals disappeared from all the Root members. When the wearer of this cursed seal speaks about anything incriminating related to Danzƍ or Root, their entire body will be paralysed, taking away their ability to speak or move. It is applied to the tongue and takes the shape of three solid lines and two broken lines from the back of the tongue to the tip.]
However, Shin quickly calmed down.
Because of the situation of ‘killing each other’, he hadn’t thought about it
 But he has already had measures to deal with it!
He said disdainfully: “Heh, what about that?”
“You’re not worried? Just because you’re terminally ill? Just because you have already prepared to sacrifice yourself to save Sai? Even if Sai really survived, what then? Do you want Sai to be a person without any emotions and continue to live? If so, what is the difference for Sai between living and dying?”
At this time, Shin can’t calm down again! He didn’t expect that Li Yaoxiang knew so well that he was terminally ill and was prepared to deal with it!
‘This

 How can this be?!’
This matter, he always put it in his heart, he never told other people!
‘How did ‘he’ know?!’
But soon, Shin had no intention to pursue any questions from the “he”. Because Shin at this moment was too anxious, his concentration was only focused on the content of Li Yaoxiang’s words. Since Li Yaoxiang dared to say that, it means that Li Yaoxiang must have a better solution!
Shin’s next voice clearly became a bit dry: “What can you do?”
