Uchiha Nanashi

- Everything is fine, we just want to help, my name is Kiliya, I am traveling with this idiot, we ended up in the local lands, we decided to free you. I know that it was hard for you, painful, and very lonely, we want to help... the Uchiha clan and the battles with the Senju clan are far in the past. Quietly, quietly, shhhh, don't worry.

At first, Hikari tensed up when someone else's hands touched her, but feeling the hug, she felt even more confused when her ears caught the words of the girl next to her and her brain processed them... Hikari just burst into tears, clinging to Kiliya like a koala, her crying showed how much pain she had accumulated throughout her life, and now hearing words that oppose everything she had seen before, her emotions broke through and she could no longer hold back.

Ban didn't waste time and went to the prepared place next to the cave, started to prepare food and set up a magic tent that he received in the world of the seven deadly sins, from Merlin. He didn't wait very long, but he couldn't call it fast either, it would definitely be about 10 minutes in total.

When two girls came out of the cave, Ban turned towards them, Kilia was walking smiling and holding Hikari in front of her, crossing her palms on the Uchiha's chest, and she herself was behind the girl. Kilia herself was about 170 centimeters tall, and towered about 2/3 of a head taller than Hikari.

Hikari was walking with a thoughtful face, although she had cried but still did not fully understand what was happening.

- Come in, first let's eat and then continue the conversation, spending 130 years without food is very unpleasant.

Hikari looked at him with an expression of "What do you know?", but in a kind of softer and less rude manner.

- Oh, believe me, I know what it's like to starve for a very long time.

Hikari turned her head to Kilia and looked into her eyes with a question.

Kilia only smiled and nodded her head as a sign that it was true.

- Brother is telling the truth, we had to go without food for quite a long time at certain moments in our lives. Not the most pleasant memories, although there were moments that brought warmth to the heart.

***

For lunch, Ban prepared something special, he did not use ingredients from this world, he took out the meat of a purgatory monster from his reserves, as well as several very tasty cakes from the best pastry shop in King Arthur's city. Meat has a good property of restoring the body of the one who ate it, just right for a person who has been imprisoned for a long time, although this imprisonment was more like stasis, but such food certainly will not hurt.

After eating, they decided to postpone changing clothes, Hikari was too eager for answers. Ban and Kiliya decided to go to meet her, after all, although her clothes were in terrible condition, they were originally very high-quality and strong, and now Hikari does not suffer from wearing them, of course, it is aesthetically unpleasant, but as a young kunoichi who is used to living in a bad environment to the fact that she was used only as a weapon, it did not matter to her.

- Why?

- Why did we decide to help you?

- Yes.

- I felt very sorry for you, as soon as we found ourselves in the local lands I immediately thought about you, and how to save you, Kiliya did not know about you, but when I told her she was fired up with the idea of ​​​​freeing you as much as I was.

- And how do you know about me?

- This is a rather complicated and long story, let's tell you when we find ourselves somewhere more comfortable.

- Okay, but then at least tell me who you are?

At that moment, Kilia wanted to answer, giving a detailed answer that could calm Hikari down, since it was clear that she was tensed up after not receiving a normal answer to her question, but Ban stopped her without letting her say anything.

- We are Ban and Kilia, travelers, is that enough?

Hikari tensed up, seeing that her "Saviors" did not want to give her answers, she immediately began to wind herself up again. "What if this is a trap in order to get her as a weapon", "They want to use me again?", "Why isn't he answering?", "Why isn't Kilia saying anything?".

- Come with us, we'll talk later, as you can see, the area is not conducive to conversation.Only here, the place where they were clearly abandoned, and there are no dangers here, and the probability of being overheard in a dense forest is certainly less than in some hotel or settlement.

- Listen to what I'm telling you, we need to go, if you want to know something more, then don't resist and come with us.

Kilia started to panic a little, and with just one look said "What the hell are you doing?". Ban only gave a signal not to interfere and continued to piss off Hikari.

- You don't want to go voluntarily? In any case, you'll have to go with us, whether you want it or not.

The Uchiha herself was not just wary, but scared and was preparing to escape from her new captors. "Damn Ninja world, even those people who came to free me still want to use me." The next phrase was said in a quiet whisper, but Ban was still able to hear what Hikari muttered under her breath.

- I don't want to again... I don't want to.

The next moment, 3 things happened. Ban stood up abruptly, and the food left on the table disappeared along with the table itself, Kilia disappeared from sight, ending up on the mountain above, it was Ban who teleported her there, and Hikari, seeing all this, turned on the Sharingan, and without hesitation, immediately activated the Mangekyo.

- I don't want to be a tool again! DAMNED NINJA WORLD! DAMNED SHINOBI!

Seeing how Kilia disappeared with the activation of the Mangekyo, she had a thought that the girl who was kind to her was just an illusion of this man, which dissipated when Hikari turned on the Sharingan.

Then the young Uchiha approached Ban, hitting him with all her strength, the man was literally slammed into the rock, breaking a huge number of bones, Hikari already thought that the fight would end there, but she saw something that she had never seen on the battlefield before. Ban calmly climbed out of the hole and his broken arm with an open fracture literally began to heal before Hikari's eyes. The bones themselves fell into place and a small steam came out from the regenerating skin.

Seeing this, Uchiha decided to change tactics and used a triple volley of the fire technique "Fire Dragon Projectile", all the volleys hit the target exactly, only a couple of seconds later the fire went out and Ban stood smiling completely intact, only his clothes were slightly burnt."Since the techniques are not working, we need to continue hitting him, there were visible damage from the last blow"

Approaching Ban, the girl began to inflict many blows that over and over again left bruises and pulled bones out of joints, but these wounds healed literally in a matter of moments. Seeing that this did not bring any result, Hikari jumped back and then looked into Ban's eyes.

- Tsukuyomi!

The next moment... nothing happened, Ban was connected to Kiliya and was under full spiritual and mental protection, no attack aimed at the soul or consciousness would work, neither the god of death himself nor the transfer of Yamanaka's consciousness.

Confused for a moment, but quickly coming to her senses, Hikari uttered the next word, which would have made the overwhelming majority of ninjas fall into despair.

- "Amaterasu"

Ban was covered in black flames, the smell of burnt meat appeared in the air, but there were no screams or burning of Ban's body. The clothes had already been destroyed, but the speed of regeneration did not allow the black flame to reach anywhere further than the skin, the muscles and organs were intact, except for the skin, only the eyes were damaged.

Hikari could not believe her eyes, because such things that Amaterasu could somehow resist had already happened, but the absence of screams and complete burning with an absolutely correct hit of the technique she sees for the first time.

Ban let out a rather strange laugh, after all, you can't talk normally while you're burning. After laughing a bit, he began to approach Hikari.

The girl realized that it was useless to continue just standing there, and the next moment she was covered in blue chakra and white lightning, Hikari's last trump card that allows even a weak jonin-level ninja to fight Susano, and two ninja children to defeat a squad of strong Uchiha from the era of the warring states, after which she went straight to Ban and began to push him back with her blows, Ban, who was still burning, now began to dodge the blows without any difficulty. Hikari tried to strike with chakra without physically touching Ban, there was a chance that Amaterasu would spread to her, and she would not have time to put it out in time while in the heat of battle.- Why, why, why did you free me? Just to make me a weapon again? Why can't they just leave me alone...

At one point, Ban got so close to the rock with his back that he was pressed, but he dodged the blow, and the blow itself hit the rock, after which the area in the area of ​​20 meters was covered with cracks and the cave wall began to crumble into many small stones.

Having retreated ten meters to the side, both opponents looked at each other. Well, in Ban's case, because of the flames, it can rather be described as turning his face towards the Uchiha.Breathing heavily and being under moral exhaustion from recent events, Hikari was already on the verge of a nervous breakdown. A few moments ago, she was caught by members of the Senju and Sarutobi clans, after which they sealed her, and a few miserable minutes later, unknown people pretending to be those who want to help are already digging her out. She looked at Ban and even through the flames and the lack of skin on his face, she noticed by the muscles that he was smiling. Without the Sharingan, it would have been impossible to see something like this.

The next moment, Hikari was surprised as Ban's speed increased incredibly, and although the Mangekyou Sharingan was able to catch the enemy's actions, the body could not keep up, and in order to prevent the flame from spreading to the girl herself, she was forced to extinguish it on Ban.

Hikari was already prepared to be killed, although no, most likely they would just knock her out and put her in seals and shackles, making her a weapon again, but now not for the Uchiha clan. Closing her eyes and preparing for her fate, she waited a second, after which she felt a rather large palm begin to stroke her head.

The palm that covered Hikari's head belonged to Ban. Completely confused about what was happening, Uchiha simply stood with her head raised and looked at Ban's already restored face, on which there was a sly and perky smile. A noise was heard from their right, this was Kilia deciding to go down the mountain in a radical way, simply jumping down, enveloping herself in a layer of mana, a rather wasteful method of protection since mana is spent in order to physically influence the world incredibly much.

- BAN! You piece of fool, why did you arrange all this? Is the note of masochism playing again? F#cking nudist!

- Kilia, dear sister, this whole performance was my cunning-cunning and cleverest plan!!! Firstly, we looked at Hikari's level of strength, and secondly, I let her let off steam.

- Idiot, with your words you only scared her more and drove her into despair again! If you didn't have immortality, you would have received the Darwin Award a long time ago!

- No, look)

Ban extended his hand towards Hikari, and Kilia saw only an extremely surprised face with two very beautiful eyes with an unusual pattern. The Uchiha just stood there with her eyes wide open and her mouth open, again not understanding what was happening. But it was already clear that after letting off steam in the fight, she calmed down significantly, and when she saw Kilia, but when the Sharingan was turned on, she realized that this girl was not an illusion cast upon her earlier, and began to think about what had just happened, as well as about Ban's last words.

- Hmmm, okay, you're right this time. But don't do that again, only warn her in advance, AND GET DRESSED ALREADY, DAMN NUDIST!

- Oops...

***

- Well, that's how I came up with this idea. When people let off steam, they calm down, and their worries go away.

Already dressed in his new set of clothes, Ban told me that while the girls were in the cave, he came up with an idea of ​​how to help Hikari let off steam, and see for himself the extent of her danger. The idea itself came to fruition during the battle, although he still underestimated the extent of Hikari's desperation, and initially expected that he would have to irritate her for much longer. He certainly didn't expect wariness from only two unanswered answers.

- Well, you're a fool, brother, just let her fight Itachi or Sasuke in the future, they are the last Uchihas, so in their images you can take revenge on the entire clan.

- It doesn't make sense, from what I know about her, she hates all shinobi, and the entire ninja world. Taking revenge on just one clan out of the many won't help. Am I right, Hikari?

- Yeah, I don't want to live in the ninja world, and why are you calling me Hikari? My name is Nanashi Uchiha.

- Aaah? Ban, did you get her name wrong?

- No, she was the weapon of the Uchiha clan, and her clanmates gave her the name Nanashi, which means nameless, so that's not her real name. Listen here, you're free now, you just fought me for your freedom, you were talking about hating ninja during the fight, and about not wanting to be a weapon anymore, right? I just didn't really hear you, my ears were kind of absent at that moment, Amaterasu is still a strong thing.

Nanashi, hearing that they were addressing her, at first wanted to confirm his words, but after finishing the phrase, she became embarrassed and quietly murmured, saying then.

- Sorry...

- It's okay, I got you mad, you see, Kiliya, your proposal for revenge on one clan makes no sense, but in general, I want you, Hikari, to leave your hatred, it's just a waste of time and the creation of new hatred.

- A WASTE OF TIME??? I don't want to live in this damn world, I need to change it, I...Ban didn't listen to her and interrupted the tirade, saying only 1 phrase that calmed Hikari down, forcing her to ask one question that she said out loud.

- It doesn't make sense!

- Why?

- Because we intend to take ourselves with us, there are a huge number of worlds and in this one we will stay for 5-6 years, maybe 10 at most, in short, not for long. We want to take you with us, and in other worlds there are either no ninjas at all or they are completely different from here, some are worse, some are better, but overall, you don't need to fix this world, since we will leave it for another.

- What? Other worlds, take me with you? Why do you need this, it sounds too good to be true.

- Brother is not lying, we really can walk through the worlds, and we ourselves came from another world.

- But why me? I am nobody to you.

- Well, this question is pretty stupid, because people constantly meet and become friends and families, and before that they were strangers to each other, and why you? Your story touched Ban's soul in a past life, so as soon as we got here, he immediately offered to free you and told you more about you.

- In a past life?

- Yes, as my sister said, before I was born in this body I lived another life, where I died at 29 and in that world there were something like stories being told and one of them was yours. I will answer the unasked question and say right away, absolutely any story of any person can turn out to be some kind of book in one of the many worlds.

- But who are you? You can move between worlds, Ban is immortal and recovers so quickly that fire does not take him, and you remember your past lives, right? Kilia is the same, right?

- Well, let's start from the very beginning.

***

- Baaan, brother, did you find something to eat?

A little girl of about 5 years old turned to a rather tall boy for his age who looked about 12 years old but he was only 8.

- I met Zhivago.

- Huh? And how? Did he decide to help you?

- Yes, let's go quickly, we can eat normally in his shelter.

***

- Zhivago! Zhivago! I heard from the hunters from the local mansion that they are planning to go hunting for a fox-man cub today! Let's go infiltrate them today, there will be very few guards.

The next moment, Zhivago did not listen to Ban's words and rushed to his child.

- Well done, brother, you helped and did not give away our secret!

***

- Is this a fairy forest? Not impressive, one big tree and a regular forest around.

- Well, let's go see, in any case, I intend to get the drink that grants immortality.

- Do you want to repeat the entire path of the original Ban? Also tell me that you want to fall in love with Elaine and join the 7 deadly sins?

- Oh, come on...

***

- Please love and favor, this is our new member in the squad, his name is Ban.

Meliodas leaned to the side and covered his mouth with his hand, as if Ban couldn't hear him.

- He's a greedy dude, so be careful!

***

- Ban of the Seven Deadly Sins! You are sentenced to death by quartering!

- Heh heh heh)

***

- Captain! It's been a while, could you tell me if you've seen my sister?

- As far as I know, after the squad broke up, she was with Merlin, and she should still be with her.

- Okay, then let's go see Merlin, we still need to visit her, and what's the name of this charming miss?

- Elizabeth.

***

- Zhivago! Old fox, it's been a while!

- Ban? And Kilia? I haven't seen you for decades, you could have stopped by at least once a year!- Heh heh, well, I'm sorry.

Instead of words, Kilia just jumped towards Zhivago and hugged him.

***

- To purgatory? And why do you need to go there? Of course, I can send you there, but to go there voluntarily? Are you crazy?

- So many questions, well, Merlin, dear, please, let's send us and then all the questions later?

***

- Listen Kilia, we're done with the ten commandments, we've figured out the demon king, what should we do next?

- I don't know, I haven't read the four horsemen of the apocalypse, and we've changed the plot dramatically, to be honest, I'd like to visit other worlds, since we were able to be born in the world of the seven deadly sins, there must be others.

An anticipatory grin spread across Ban's face.

***

- And what kind of world is this?

- I don't know, let's ask the locals.

But there was no need to ask, as they appeared close to a small town, and saw a man with a bandage on his forehead jumping from tree to tree and then entering the settlement. Ban and Kiliya looked at each other and smiled very happily.
