The gray sky was covered with dark clouds, as if they were mourning the people who died in this disaster. Rolling thunder sounded, and raindrops began to fall. In a short period of time, the raindrops became heavier and heavier, forming a downpour. The sound of the raindrops washed the broken leaves of the forest.
The Hokage Tower, which was destroyed by Kyuubi's Virtual Dog Cannon, has been rebuilt. Not only the Hokage Tower, but even the Hokage Rock has been restored to its original appearance. These two buildings are the symbolic buildings of Konoha, so naturally, they were restored in the first place.
At this time, the newly built Hokage Tower was crowded with Konoha's Ninjas. Without exception, they stood on the top of the Hokage Tower, wearing black funeral attire. They all bowed their heads and didn't speak. The rain wet their bodies, but no one dodged.
Hatake Kakashi and Nara Shikaku, the two current leaders of Konoha, stood at the forefront. Nara Shikaku whispered something to Konoha's Ninjas present.
This was a funeral, a funeral held to mourn the deaths of those who perished in the invasion of Uchiha Akatsuki and the Kyuubi Demon Fox. On the altar, there were countless pictures of the deceased, the most prominent of which was the picture of Jiraiya, and the picture of Konoha's two great advisors, Mitokado Homura and Jiraiya Jiraiya.
Such a scene was like three years ago when Sandaime Hokage passed away, but now the photo on the altar was replaced by someone else.
Naruto also stood in the crowd, looking blankly at Jiraiya's photo in front of him. His face was still wrapped in bandages. Obviously, he was seriously injured. He was supposed to be in the hospital for treatment, but when he heard about the funeral, he insisted on coming.
Looking up, the cold rain hit his face. Naruto couldn't help but think of Jiraiya's laughing face. Thinking of his experience of training with Jiraiya, scenes flashed in his mind. He unconsciously clenched his fists and took a deep breath. Naruto's eyes became firm.
Finally, after Nara Shikaku's eulogy, everyone placed the white flowers in their hands on the altar, and at the same time, announced the end of the funeral. After the funeral, Nara Shikaku also announced Kakashi's identity as the acting Hokage. With Kakashi's reputation in the village, coupled with the support of various clans, no one objected to Kakashi's identity.
The funeral only lasted for a day. After all, Konoha had just undergone a great change. At this time, there were many things waiting to be done. It was a critical time for rebuilding.
The next day, Kakashi issued a series of orders as the acting Hokage. First, he mobilized the people in the village to begin the reconstruction work. At the same time, countless Konoha Shinobi who went out on missions were constantly recalled, and everything was going on nervously.
However, all of this had nothing to do with Shen. After leaving Konoha, he lost interest in it. After all, almost all of Konoha's higher-ups were killed by them, and Konoha suffered heavy losses. Shen estimated that Konoha was now busy rebuilding, so he didn't have time to do anything. Therefore, he didn't pay attention to Konoha's situation.
What's more, he wasn't in the mood to pay attention to Konoha right now. After all, there was a small situation on his side.
In Otogakure of the Land of Rice, this was already the base camp of the Hawks. After they left Konoha, they naturally returned here.
At this time, in Otogakure, Shen had just stabilized the sequelae of Sasuke's Sharingan.
"My eyes … what's going on? Could it be … "Sasuke, who had just stabilized, still didn't look very good. He didn't have time to rest. After Shen stabilized his condition, he couldn't wait to ask Shen.
"It seems that you have already thought of it. Yes, as I said before, it's the curse of our Uchiha Clan. Your Mangekyou Sharingan has symptoms. Although I have temporarily stabilized it for you, if you continue to use Mangekyou Dojutsu, then your vision will be affected until you lose your sight!" Shen looked at Sasuke's eyes and said seriously.
After Shen's words, Sasuke was still very uncalm, and Shen could even catch a trace of fear in Sasuke's eyes. He couldn't help but smile bitterly. The power he had relied on disappeared. In the face of such a blow, even Uchiha Madara panicked, let alone Sasuke.
"Damn … is this really the case?" Although he had already thought of it, after Shen confirmed it, Sasuke still felt flustered. Not to mention the blindness, it was already unacceptable for Sasuke to give up using Mangekyou Sharingan's Dojutsu.
After a moment of depression, Sasuke quickly looked at Shen, his eyes full of hope. Now, in Sasuke's opinion, only Shen could help him. After all, with his cognitive power, Shen must have opened Mangekyou Sharingan earlier than him, and the number of times he used Mangekyou Dojutsu must be no less than him. Since he was fine, there must be some way.
Thinking of this, Sasuke quickly asked Shen, "Is there any way to remedy it? Your Mangekyou Sharingan should have opened earlier than me, right? Why are you fine? You must have some way to suppress this sequelae, right? Tell me quickly! "
However, Sasuke was disappointed.
"There is no way. This is the curse of our Uchiha Clan, and no one can escape this fate, except … Uchiha Madara!"
"Uchiha Madara, could it be … Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan? Is there no other way? My eyes … really … "After hearing Shen's words, Sasuke was stunned and said absent-mindedly.
"You have only two choices in your current situation. From now on, stop using Mangekyou Sharingan's power and Dojutsu. In this case, your eyes will be fine, otherwise …" Shen didn't say anything else, but the following words were self-evident.
"Damn it, damn it, how can this be … I … I'm not willing!"
"I know this result is definitely unacceptable to you, so … there is another choice …" Speaking of this, Shen looked at Sasuke with a complicated gaze. Finally, when Sasuke was slightly nervous and expectant, he said something that shocked him.
"Go … find Itachi!"
