10 parts Complete Three years have passed since the end of the Fourth Great Shinobi War, but for Ayuka Yuna, it still felt like only yesterday.

Sasuke Uchiha was revered as a hero across the shinobi world. His name could be heard in whispers and conversations across every village, causing Ayuka to cringe every time it graced her ears. Hearing his name now was only a painful reminder of his abandonment, although she hoped it would not remain that way for long...
