In the meditation room of the Fire Temple.
Under the dim light, the old monk and Cold Wind knelt on the tatami across a small square table. Both of them were holding simple grey teacups and sipping tea.
The commotion from the front yard and the back of the house gradually subsided, and the night slowly returned to tranquility.
After three rounds of tea, the old monk put down the plain teacup and asked slowly, "Benefactor, I just saw you perform Thunder Dance and Wind Slayer in one breath. Are you the successor of Wood Leaf's Sword Style?"
Cold Wind nodded gently and introduced himself, "I am the patriarch of Moonlight Cold Wind, the patriarch of the Moonlight Clan."
Moonlight Cold Wind?
The old monk was shocked. Although he had been cultivating in the Fire Temple, he knew that the fourth generation of Naruto, Po Shui Mun, valued the younger generation very much. Names like Hatake Kakashi, Moonlight Cold Wind, and Huo Genma had reached the old monk's ears.
It was just that the old monk did not expect that Moonlight Cold Wind could be strong enough to challenge the Fire Temple alone.
Wood Leaf's strength was getting stronger and stronger.
The old monk sighed inwardly. Then, he asked with a friendly smile, "Cold Wind, what's the matter with you coming to my temple to look for me?"
"To tell you the truth, I came to the Fire Temple to ask the abbot about the curse seal. As a result, I encountered some unpleasantness. Please forgive me." Cold Wind had a regretful expression on his face.
"The Land Of Earth was in the wrong first. Besides, you were merciful, so don't blame me."
The old monk had been cultivating for dozens of years and had long been cultivated. How could he ruin the relationship between the two sides because of a misunderstanding?
After a few polite words, the old monk said, "Cold Wind, the temple does have a ninja monk who specializes in curse seals. Please wait a moment."
The old monk stood up solemnly from the tatami, looking like an eminent monk. He bowed slightly to Cold Wind, then walked out of the meditation room, his robes fluttering in the wind.
After a while, the old monk walked in with his palms together.
Cold Wind originally thought that he would bring the Ninja Monk who had studied the Curse Seals, but he didn't expect that he would directly take the Curse Seals that the Ninja Monk had studied.
Cold Wind was in no position to complain, so he could only give him a thumbs up in his heart!
The old monk took out four small scrolls from his bosom and placed them on the small square table, indicating for Cold Wind to take a look.
Cold Wind was not polite to him. He directly opened a small scroll. Without further ado, he used the Gathering Technique to test the waters.
The green ball of light in his mind surged and boiled for a moment before slowly calming down.
Cold Wind's eyes lit up. Although the collection failed, it proved that the curse seals on these scrolls were effective and could be collected!
Putting his mind at ease, Cold Wind carefully examined them.
"These are the Curse Seals that our temple's Ninja Monks spent several decades to study. Cold Wind, feel free to comment on them" the old monk smiled reservedly.
"Very profound!"
Cold Wind replied half-heartedly while quickly skimming through the Curse Seals recorded on the scrolls.
Each of the four scrolls recorded a Curse Seal, one that restricted the body, one that restricted the mind, just by looking at the introduction, it was extremely strange and frightening.
When he saw the last scroll, Cold Wind's body trembled.
Heartbind Curse Seal.
Implanting a Curse Seal into one's heart, forcefully restricting another person's movements …
This was a bit similar to the Curse Seal that Uchiha Madara used on Lin, but from the effects, it was clear that Uchiha Madara's Curse Seal was much stronger.
Although the Heartbind Curse Seal can restrict another person's movements, it can't stop them from committing suicide.
"Ahem"
Cold Wind coughed dryly, then asked without changing his expression: "Abbot, is there a way to remove this Heartbind Curse Seal after it's been implanted?"
The old monk confidently said: "Apart from the caster himself, only death can remove it"
Cold Wind nodded, at the same time he used Harvest on the scroll.
The green light in his mind surged again, but unfortunately it still failed.
Cold Wind put the scroll away without hesitation, then said: "Abbot, I've benefited a lot from this trip to Fire Temple, the Moonlight clan will always remember Fire Temple's kindness"
"Haha, Patriarch Cold Wind is too polite"
The old monk took advantage of the situation and said with a smile: "The relationship between our temple and Wood Leaf clan has always been friendly, I hope we can also have friendly relations with the Moonlight clan from now on"
The two of them exchanged pleasantries for a bit more, then Cold Wind asked to leave.
The old monk didn't agree, he used the reason that it was already late to invite Cold Wind to stay.
But Cold Wind was a very cautious person, he just caused a huge ruckus, even if the old monk didn't blame him, the ninja monks below him wouldn't be able to say anything.
Especially when the old monk came out before, the sealing technique that almost a hundred ninja monks prepared to use together definitely wasn't simple.
Cold Wind didn't dare to stay.
The two sides went back and forth for a long time, the sky was already slightly bright.
Well, Cold Wind didn't say much, he got up and left.
The old monk yawned and solemnly said to the ninja monks outside that he would meditate for half a day. Then he moved the small square table and the three small scrolls on it away, then he lay down on the tatami with his clothes on and slept.
But not long after he lay down, he vaguely heard a child's cry.
The old monk didn't open his eyes and asked: "Who's crying?"
"Master, it's Kazuma's child, Kong." The answer came from outside.
"Kazuma is dead …"
The old monk sighed and said: "Let Kong stay, I hope he can let go of his hatred and become a Buddha immediately."
"… Yes."
…
Leaving Fire Temple.
Cold Wind didn't stay, he directly turned on Sage Mode and went online!
He traveled all the way here, so he had plenty of time to bury Thunder God's Stone, so it only took him ten seconds to get home.
After retching for a while, Cold Wind woke up the Shadow Clone sleeping in the bedroom and asked him to go to the underground base in the Forest of Death. Then he took out a small scroll from his arms and threw the last Harvest Technique of the day.
Unfortunately, it still failed.
Cold Wind wasn't in a hurry. Anyway, Yakushi Kabuto couldn't run away.
When the sky was a little brighter, the mansion gradually became lively.
Especially the voice of Keiko calling Karin, it could be heard across several wooden corridors!
Cold Wind remembered that when school just started, Karin was so excited that she got up early every day and didn't want to delay for a moment, but after a long time …
"Karin, get up, you're going to be late!"
Keiko's voice came faintly, "Hinata is already waiting for you outside the door. If you don't get up, you'll be late!!"
"Got it. Let me sleep a little longer, just a little longer …" Karin buried herself in the blanket. She would be sorry if she didn't drag it out until the very last moment.
After sending Karin and Hinata to the Ninja School, Cold Wind slept comfortably for half a day.
After sleeping enough, Cold Wind went to the backyard and carefully read the content of the Heartbind Curse Seal.
As the saying goes, reading a hundred times will reveal the meaning. As long as you read more, you can increase the success rate of collecting.
The Heartbind Curse Seal used his own blood, combined with his own Chakra and will, and then engraved the curse seal on the cursed person's chest. When the curse seal merged into the heart, the Heartbind Curse Seal was completed.
It didn't seem to be difficult.
But Cold Wind knew his own strength, so he didn't bother. He just read it once, twice, ten times, a hundred times …
After seven days of hard work, Cold Wind successfully collected the Heartbind Curse Seal!
On this day, Asuma returned.
Asuma, with a non-mainstream hairstyle, looked at the Wood Leaf door with complicated eyes.
How many years has it been since I left Wood Leaf?
Asuma recalled carefully. He remembered that Yondaime-sama suddenly announced that Uchiha Obsidian was a rebellious ninja. He, Kakashi, Guy, and others couldn't stand it and went to find Po Shui Mun to reason. After that, he fought with Moonlight Cold Wind, then quarreled with his old man, and finally ran away from home. Almost six years have passed since then.
The once youthful and high-spirited pure boy is now a non-mainstream youth.
Are Kakashi, Guy, and others okay?
Red … didn't put a hat on me, right?
Asuma shook his head and threw these messy thoughts out of his mind. He came back this time to give justice to Kazuma!
That damn ninja …
Hmm?
Asuma was suddenly startled. In his mind, the Wood Leaf ninja who caused havoc in the Fire Temple and killed Kazuma slowly overlapped with the annoying Moonlight Cold Wind in his memory.
It's him?!
Asuma was shocked and angry!
It wasn't his fault that he couldn't remember. There was no friendship between him and Cold Wind at all!
The only interaction they had was when Obsidian became a rebellious ninja. He, Kakashi, Guy, and the others were always looking for trouble with Cold Wind. Apart from that, he and Cold Wind were complete strangers.
Besides, six years have passed. That guy … how did he grow taller than me?
Asuma was furious.
He entered Wood Leaf.
Asuma glanced at Kamizuki Izumo and Steel And Iron who were guarding the door. These two … looked familiar, but he couldn't remember their names.
Forget it.
Asuma returned to his mansion with a grim expression.
The locks on the mansion's door had been changed, but this wasn't a problem for Asuma.
He lightly jumped over the wall and walked around the mansion, but he didn't see anyone.
Where did he go?
Asuma frowned. After his father resigned from his position as Naruto, although he became a consultant, most of the consultant's work was handled by Mitokado and Koharu, so Sarutobi's workload was very small. Therefore, he always brought his work back home and slowly dealt with it.
This way, he could accompany Asuma more, but Asuma didn't appreciate it at all.
Since he couldn't find anyone, Asuma went to ask the other people.
The Sarutobi Clan was also a big clan in Wood Leaf, although not as big as the Hyuga and Uchiha.
"Uncle Rito, where is my old man?" As soon as he jumped over the wall, Asuma saw an acquaintance and hurriedly asked.
The Sarutobi elder called Rito looked at the young man with a dumbfounded expression: "Who … are you?"
Asuma's face twitched, he gritted his teeth and said: "It's me, Asuma!"
"Asuma? You are Asuma?! "
Sarutobi grabbed Asuma's two arms and looked at him up and down, "I didn't expect you to grow so tall, great, you are finally back, your father misses you every day!"
Asuma was a little uncomfortable, but he still asked patiently: "Uncle Rito, where is my old man?"
"He is in the consultant's office."
Sarutobi said, "You don't know yet, but Koharu and Homura have resigned. Although Yondaime-sama promoted two temporary consultants in time, their experience is not as good as Koharu and Homura, so Sarutobi's workload has increased."
Asuma nodded: "I know, Uncle Rito, I still have something to do, I will talk to you next time."
After that, Asuma quickly rushed to the office next to Naruto's building.
