"Where's my big brother?!"
Kakashi froze for a moment before turning to Sala.
Sala watched as everything disappeared. When she heard Kakashi's voice, she fell to the side and said in a trembling voice, "He … jumped down …"
"Mm?!"
Kakashi's expression changed as he looked down at the abyss. After making a judgment, he took a deep breath and jumped down, vanishing into the darkness.
A few moments later, Kakashi returned, his expression extremely unsightly as he said, "There's nothing down there … so what happened?!"
Sala's voice trembled as she said, "He used his body to withstand the explosion of the dragon vein's energy. Humans simply can't withstand that kind of enormous energy …"
"That's impossible!"
Kakashi immediately retorted. "My big brother won't die. If it's really as you say, he might have been sent to another time after withstanding the dragon vein's energy. With my big brother's abilities, he'll return sooner or later!"
Hearing Kakashi's words, Sara, who had already burst into tears, looked up at him again. Seeing Kakashi's incomparably firm eyes, the sadness in her heart was suppressed for a moment. Thinking of the powerful strength that Maple had shown before, she couldn't help but believe in Kakashi.
Kakashi stood by the platform and looked down before sternly saying, "You go and deal with the situation outside. I'll stay here and wait for my big brother to return."
"…"
Sala was silent for a moment. She wanted to say that she would also stay here and wait, but when she thought about how she still needed to deal with the situation outside after An Lushan's death, she clenched her teeth, nodded, and ran out.
After rescuing the people underground and regaining the trust of the people of Loulan, Sala returned to the platform and saw Kakashi sitting alone on the edge, looking down into the abyss.
She walked to the other side and sat down, also looking down.
… …
Time flew by.
Kakashi didn't wait for Maples to return.
He waited on the platform above the dragon vein for three months, his mood growing more and more depressed. Finally, one day, he silently disappeared.
After discovering that Kakashi had disappeared, Sala couldn't help but bite her lip. She looked down into the abyss and didn't give up waiting. Every day, she would finish her business and come here.
Three months …
Four months …
Half a year …
One year …
This wait lasted for nearly two years.
In the past two years, the disappearance of Maples caused an uproar in the Shinobi World. Although the major Shinobi villages were worried that this was Konoha's plan and didn't dare to act, but after half a year, they finally couldn't hold back. The originally stable situation in the Shinobi World once again became turbulent.
And in the Third Shinobi World War that hasn't ended yet, Maples didn't appear.
One day.
Some free ninja happened to enter Roran and got the news that Maples and Kakashi had been here more than a year ago. This was also the last place where Maples appeared.
After learning some information about Roran, this information quickly spread in the Shinobi World, and the Major Shinobi Villages finally found the reason for the disappearance of Maples.
As time passed.
The 'missing' mark of Maples was gradually changed to the 'dead' mark, and then it became silent. And then the one who replaced the glory of Maples was Golden Flash Namikaze Minato.
In a battle, Namikaze Minato killed 50 Jonin of Iwagakure, which shocked Onoki, and the situation of the entire front line battlefield completely collapsed.
This battle made Namikaze Minato famous in the Shinobi World!
The Major Shinobi Villages began to fear Namikaze Minato's power, and the turbulent Third Shinobi World War finally calmed down again.
Many people still remember the name that once shocked the Shinobi World, Silver Flash, but this name has gradually disappeared.
"I didn't expect such a ninja to die."
Some people can't help but sigh when they think about it.
Although the Major Shinobi Villages including Konoha didn't get the exact news of Silver Flash's death, he disappeared for two years and didn't appear again.
Gradually.
No one mentioned the name of Silver Flash again.
Although it hasn't been forgotten by the Shinobi World, with the relentless passage of time, sooner or later, it will completely become history and disappear from the memory of the Shinobi World.
…
Somewhere in a dim space.
It's not appropriate to call it a space, because there seems to be no concept of space here, but only the scale of time.
After swallowing the Ryumyaku's energy … or jumping into the Ryumyaku's energy, Maples' consciousness appeared here.
The swallowed Ryumyaku's energy seemed to flow into his body, but in fact, after being crazily squeezed and contracted, it turned into some kind of time-distorting energy.
Whoosh!!
This indescribable energy poured into the Illusory Clock in the consciousness world, and the golden light on the Illusory Clock suddenly became bright.
Maples' consciousness observed that the fog in the Illusory Clock's' Scale III 'position was quickly dispelled. The fog that may have taken years or even more than ten years to dispel quickly faded and disappeared completely in a short time.
Wouch!!
At the same time, the Illusory Clock's' Scale III 'completely disappeared, and at the same time, the time-distorting power absorbed from the Ryumyaku seemed to be exhausted.
There seems to be no concept of space here, it's just a dim world, like a curtain of darkness, it was torn into pieces, and the image reappeared in front of him.
…
Two years later in Roran.
Somewhere below the Ryumyaku's stone platform.
Countless light spots quickly intertwined, and the countless light spots finally converged into the figure of Maples, and then he opened his eyes.
Realizing that he was falling from the sky, Feng Ye immediately formed a series of hand seals and used a Shadow Clone Technique to push his body upward.
Wouch!
Maples fell on the stone platform above the Ryumyaku's stone platform.
Feng Ye noticed that there were no signs of damage on the stone platform or around the tower. It didn't look like it had been through a lot of wind and frost either. Feng Ye heaved a sigh of relief.
"It seems that I haven't been teleported to the distant future …"
"But it doesn't seem to be the previous time node."
Maples pondered for a moment, and his consciousness entered the Illusory Clock, and quickly learned the specific changes in the situation from the Illusory Clock.
There was no space crossing.
This is still the previous world.
It's just that two years have passed, and now it's the 47th year of Konoha.
In the process of absorbing the Ryumyaku's energy, he disappeared on the time scale. Although he only disappeared for a moment, when he came back, this world has skipped two years.
"It's equivalent to being sealed for two years, and then breaking the seal and appearing again …"
Maples murmured and couldn't help but shake his head, and sighed, "Time is really a terrible thing."
Fortunately, it only skipped two years, and it didn't jump to the fourth world war.
It's not a big problem.
But in this way, it seems that Kakashi is one year older than him.
Well.
Even if two years have passed, in terms of physical age, Kakashi is still the younger brother. The current Kakashi is only 12 years old.
"By the way …"
"It seems that the corresponding ability of 'Scale III' has been unlocked."
