What exactly happened on October 10, 48 Konoha? Before that day..,
Sarutobi knew very well what was going to happen. But after that day..,
The situation was completely out of control.
"Xiaochun, are you asleep?"
Konoha, Land of Fire
June 12, 62 Konoha,
A semicircular moon hung high in the sky,
There were no stars, no clouds, and the weather was clear.
Transfer to a dormitory,
This wooden house, which was built a few months earlier than the old Naruto building, had experienced 60 years of war,
It was not destroyed in the night of the Nine Tails, and it also escaped Payne. In the end, it could not escape being taken over by the public after the death of the owner. Xiaochun had no relatives, and she was not very interested in adopting a child from the Konoha orphanage,
Her only hope was that if it was not demolished, a family of three could live here in the future, and then it would become a family of five and six … it would be best if they were not ninjas, and it would be best if none of the family members wanted to be ninjas.
"transfer to Xiaochun? Are you asleep? "
Xiaochun really wanted to tell Sarutobi outside the door that men and women should not touch each other,
An old man with a dead wife shouldn't always go into an old woman's house in the middle of the night. But then again,
She had often knocked on Sarutobi's house in the middle of the night,
She put on her clothes and opened the door,
"What's wrong? Are you worried that Kurenai Jonin will do something beastly to your cute little son and can't sleep? "
"Young people nowadays don't have a wedding night."
"Then are you here to help Asuma collect my share of the money? Although I wasn't invited to dinner..,
I gave the share of the money directly to Kurenai Jonin. "
"…" Sarutobi paused for a moment and asked.
"How much did you give?"
Xiaochun replied seriously, "A month's pension,
Don't worry..,
Asuma won't starve to death. "
Sarutobi sat in the living room and waited for Xiaochun to make tea,
He didn't know what to say.
"If you really can't solve it, go ahead and commit suicide." Xiaochun began to boil water. "As long as you're dead, even if Belt Soil and Watergate say something, Watergate can't do anything to you."
"…"
"Could it be that you don't want to die?" Xiaochun finally understood why Danzō was so fond of mocking Sarutobi when he was alive. It felt so good to shut the mouth of a person who was never in the wrong. "Look, you're already so old, but you're still unwilling to die. Kina was only in her early twenties back then. She wasn't even as old as Asuma now. What right do you have to ask her to give up her husband, her child, and her long and happy life to die for Konoha without resisting at all?"
"Be reasonable. You were there too. Kina Maelstrom's death was an accident. That's all."
"Then why are you so afraid of Watergate finding out the truth?" Xiaochun washed the teacups. "Sarutobi, is it really so difficult to admit that you've done something wrong because your conscience isn't at peace and you're afraid that you'll bring disaster to your descendants? Who hasn't done anything wrong in their life? Who can be right forever? Sensei and Sensei have done so many wrong things. "
"…"
Xiaochun washed the tea leaves. "Sensei led Konoha to pledge loyalty to the Emperor. The ninja clans that were fighting each other belonged to the same faction from then on. They no longer killed each other, and they also helped the Emperor intimidate the weak. Even the Fire National capital was stabilized because of this. Was he wrong? It seemed so right at the time, but now it seems that he was the one who caused Konoha to be controlled by the Emperor. Sensei invented so many terrifying ninjutsu, such as Edo Tensei, Spirit Transformation, Thor, and his pile of damned scrolls. They all seemed very useful at the time, but now that I think about it, how many Konoha youths were scammed by his ninjutsu?! "
"…"
Xiaochun poured water and made tea. "Even Watergate will talk about his merits 20 years later? Who can guarantee that he'll always be right? "
Sarutobi's mouth was scalded by the tea. "I thought you understood that I was worried about Uchiha Belt Soil."
"Worried about Belt Soil telling Watergate a terrible truth, that the whole battle of Nine Tails was a conspiracy of Konoha against the disobedient young Naruto from the beginning?"
"It's not a conspiracy. There's no conspiracy." Sarutobi took out his pipe and stuffed it into it. His thoughts returned to the past. Little Watergate became Naruto. Little Watergate got married. Little Watergate immersed himself in his happy life every day except for his daily work. And he continued to helm Konoha's diplomatic and strategic affairs. The new and old Naruto cooperated harmoniously. It wasn't until a year later when Kina Maelstrom became pregnant that he and Watergate had their first conflict.
In fact, it wasn't a conflict. It was just that Konoha wanted the soon-to-be-born Naruto Uzumaki to become a Force Of Human Column, but Kina and Watergate didn't agree. Everyone understood. After all, becoming a Force Of Human Column wasn't a good fate. Watergate and Kina's reasons weren't wrong. They were so young, and they would have more children in the future. When Kina and the first lady grew old, it wouldn't be too late to pick a young hero who was willing to protect Konoha.
But the bad thing was that Watergate and Kina planned to have many children. The risk of the Force Of Human Column being attacked during childbirth and Nine Tails escaping was too high. It wouldn't be a problem if they only had one child this time. But if they had to worry about it every few years, they might as well let the first child become a Force Of Human Column and completely liberate Kina. After that, they could have as many children as they wanted.
However, Watergate and Kina still had a glimmer of hope. The two young people, who had never seen the consequences with their own eyes, were confident that they could control Nine Tails. Konoha also couldn't do anything to the Four Generations Naruto couple who wouldn't relent. But the problem of the Force Of Human Column still had to be solved. So, Shimura Danzo came up with a bad idea.
Sarutobi lit his pipe. He admitted that he also wanted to teach the disobedient young Naruto a lesson. Because after the discussion about the new Force Of Human Column, Watergate began to focus on Konoha's political affairs and once again proposed the reform plan in his inaugural speech.
Sarutobi didn't object to Watergate's efforts to improve Konoha's governance and rescue it from the brink of poverty and bankruptcy. But he couldn't accept Watergate's attempt to separate Konoha from the National Capital Lord!
Senju and Uchiha were two of the most ferocious ancient clans in the Land of Fire. But the real local tyrants of the Land of Fire were the equally ancient Sarutobi and Shimura. Sarutobi and Shimura also had their own vassal clans. The pledge earrings of the Ino-Shika-Cho clans were given by the Sarutobi clan's head many generations ago. In addition to the orphans, Danzō also had a lot of Aburame and Inuzuka Jounin in his roots.
Yes, when Konoha accepted other clans, it was no longer the Konoha of Senju and Uchiha, but the Konoha of all the allied clans that signed the agreement. The first generation Sensei and the second generation Sensei said this and taught them this. So, if Konoha is no longer loyal to Konoha, who should these loosely knit clans and ninjas, who should they be loyal to? Naruto couldn't afford this kind of loyalty, and neither could Sarutobi. Even the orphan Bo Fung Watergate married Kina Maelstrom, and Kina Maelstrom was a relative of the Uzumaki Mito. Bo Fung Watergate belonged to the Senju clan, and with family background came family disputes … Without a Lord, how would Naruto treat all Konoha people?
So, Sarutobi cooperated with Danzō, vowing to show the arrogant Bo Fung Watergate how terrifying Nine Tails was when his Force Of Human Column wife was so weak and he was exhausted … The Four Generations couple who swore that nothing would happen to them still caused trouble for everyone. When Naruto became a Force Of Human Column was no longer something that Watergate could control. And once there was a stain on his resume, the perfect Four Generations Naruto would have something to attack. If Watergate mentioned anything whimsical, all he had to do was tell him to think about the 10th of October that year to shut him up.
Of course, all of this was just a small drama and demonstration. Under Gen's control, Nine Tails destroyed the forest and the land, and he was stopped when he was still far away from Konoha village's walls. Who would have thought …
Maybe Shimura Danzo, that idiot, had thought of it. Sarutobi never thought that Shimura Danzo's script would involve the Uchiha family being dragged down through the Nine Tails incident. He also didn't think that their little prank might have been a coincidence or a leak. Either way, on that day, a Uchiha really did control Nine Tails to attack Konoha … This led to a series of irreversible accidents that could no longer be mediated. "Damn Uchiha Belt Soil!"
"Have some tea, it's cold." Xiaochun didn't know what Sarutobi was thinking when he lit a cigarette. She only knew that the older he got, the more stubborn Naruto, the Third Generation leader, should just stay at home and never come out.
But Sarutobi still wanted to jump up.
"What's wrong with you now?" Xiaochun rolled her eyes.
"Watergate seems to be in a bit of trouble." Sarutobi took out Thor's communicator.
"How dare you let someone near Watergate!" Xiaochun's face turned pale.
"Don't worry, I'm the one who officially asked for Kakashi's permission." Sarutobi inserted his pipe and ran towards Konoha Hospital. "Watergate has retired, but I haven't. At least I'm still a fighter."
Konoha Hospital, outside Naruto's ward.
He didn't encounter an assassin, but …
"Heatstroke?" Sarutobi rushed to the hospital and peeked through the glass into the dark room. He seemed to be late. "I told you not to spoil him too much. It's June and he's still wearing a vest."
"I'm sorry, Sandaime-sama. It's not heatstroke. Please don't talk nonsense. It'll cause trouble." The Shadow Guard on duty at midnight stopped Sarutobi from approaching. "Four Generations fell down because of the drug reaction. The medical ninja has already taken care of it."
"Medical accident?"
"No." It was just that there was something that made him dizzy, but he didn't say it. "Four Generations is already asleep. You can come back during the day if you need anything."
"He's getting more and more delicate." Sarutobi shuddered. Every time he came, he felt cold. But he still wanted to ask, to ask about Watergate's life. "Four Generations has been noisy recently …"
"Kina is beside Four Generations. She's holding his hand." Although the Dark Group couldn't see, he decided to answer like this if anyone asked him in the future.
Sarutobi looked at the slightly malicious eyes and left silently. Since Watergate was fine, he really hated Konoha Hospital.
Kina Maelstrom took back her two fists. She didn't like Sarutobi! She didn't like this guy from the first time she saw him. At that time, she was selected from the Land of Whirlpools to Konoha. She was supposed to inherit the legacy of Grandma Mito from Uzumaki. Who knew that the legacy was a nasty and fierce fox named Kurama! Grandma Mito said that she could refuse if she thought about it carefully. Yes, at that time, although the Land of Whirlpools had fallen, it hadn't been destroyed. She didn't want to pick people again. But this Sandaime-sama with a lecherous smile coaxed her into agreeing voluntarily. He talked a lot about the benefits of becoming a Force Of Human Column, but she didn't realize anything. To be honest, if she hadn't met Watergate later, she would have run away. She wouldn't have been reduced to such a situation — if it hadn't been for this Sandaime-sama, she might have had a platoon of children with Watergate.
If she and Watergate had a platoon of children, Watergate would be surrounded by a group of cute children now, instead of being protected by a group of children. Kina sighed and looked at the few bruises on Watergate's body. She could reach out and hold him, but she could never catch him. She had been with Watergate for so many years. When Naruto cried, she couldn't comfort him. When Watergate was sick and tired, she couldn't even get him a mouthful of hot water.
"Kina, what's wrong?" Watergate was actually not asleep. He woke up in the middle of the night and slipped in front of the toilet. It was really embarrassing.
"I'm practicing hard. Don't disturb me." Kina flashed and sat on Watergate's chest.
"Okay, okay, don't be angry. My wife is right. If I have any doubts about the medicine in the future, I will quickly tell the medical ninja." Watergate looked at the angry Kina and poked her. Kina always liked to appear in the daytime to accompany him. In fact, the night belonged to the soul. "You are so beautiful in the moonlight."
"Smooth talker." Chinai lay silently in the crook of Minato's arm. "Hurry up and go to sleep."
Watergate pursed his lips and continued to sleep with a little embarrassment in his heart. Kina began to practice the spiritualization technique. Of course, before practicing, Uchiha Belt Soil hadn't appeared for a few days.
Uchiha Belt Soil peeked at Kina for many nights and was chased away countless times. Finally, he learned the hand seals for spiritualization, but he tried many times to no avail. He was even in despair. Perhaps Kina Maelstrom was the most special one, because that female ghost did have her own uniqueness. For example, he was only one, but Kina had many, many, many, many, many more.
So, he was already so pitiful. Why should he stay here and be lovey-dovey all day?
Belt Soil began to wander around Konoha again. This time, he didn't look for Lin, but looked for people. Ghosts couldn't hear or touch, but they could see. Belt Soil read a lot of people's lips and finally noticed a lot of information that he missed. For example, Payne was destroyed and burned to death by the Explosive Charms. The Akatsuki failed. The other members of the Akatsuki disappeared when they saw that things weren't going well. This was the difference between a rebel ninja and a serious ninja. A group of scumbags who were willing to do anything for themselves. They only fought for themselves and never considered others or the world.
Also, Sensei was so angry that he had a heart attack because Kakashi didn't kill him. But was it really necessary to be so angry? A Naruto, even if he knew the truth, shouldn't be so narrow-minded. Sensei was really not suitable to be a Naruto. In fact, as long as Sensei could calm down and listen to him. Was it so difficult to resurrect Lin and Kina's Eye of the Moon plan? Naruto lived alone, or with his wife and children, who was more important?
Belt Soil also saw Zabuza. Ghost Zabuza lived a quiet life in Konoha. He went to work, went to work, bought groceries after work, and occasionally went out in the field. Belt Soil always saw the mouth in Konoha Hospital chattering, asking whether Haku was a man or a woman. He wanted to know the answer. Unfortunately, he didn't see Haku take a bath even after following him a few times.
Belt Soil also went to the prison to see Aoha. Aoha Yamashiro used his body to clean the toilet day and night, and cursed Uchiha Belt Soil all the time. Belt Soil wanted to say, "If you want to curse, go curse Kakuzu, who is already nowhere to be found, not the poor Belt Soil ghost who changed the accounts and took the money."
In the end, Belt Soil couldn't help but go to see Kakashi. It was hard to believe that Kakashi had become the Fifth Daimyo. Every day, he sat at Naruto's small desk, doing boring work. But Belt Soil finally stopped by Kakashi's side, and then he was lucky enough to see Orochimaru's account, and finally confirmed that Orochimaru was still alive! Orochimaru also directly told Kakashi that he released Aoha Yamashiro — so that's how it was!
"Akiu!" Kakashi sneezed.
"Don't get sick." The sneeze was so loud that Uchiha Shisui ran down from upstairs, "Is the air conditioner too cold? Asuma? "
"Asuma is on his honeymoon." Kakashi turned around and took off his mask to wipe his nose.
"You really caught a cold."
Shisui touched Kakashi's forehead. It was cold.
"I don't know, but it's cold." Kakashi didn't feel good, "I think I might need a medical ninja."
"I'll teach someone right away, just hold on."
Kakashi wanted to hold on, but his almost frozen hands told him that he couldn't.
Only when he did what he couldn't do would he know.
