Naruto's Stormy Seas

Chapter 498 Heaven (The Finale)

The junction of the country of fire and the country of tea.

It is rare that in the previous world collapse, there was almost no damage here. Of course, this is also because it is too far away from the battlefield.

The border between the two countries is a virgin forest adjacent to the coast. It is strange that there is an open land that has been cleared out on the edge of the forest near the coast.

Facing the direction of the sea here, there is an inconspicuous tomb standing here quietly, enjoying the warm sea breeze.

Yuan Yile, wearing a bamboo hat and a toga, put a bunch of bright wild flowers on the tombstone without words, and then stepped back and knelt on the ground and prayed silently with his hands clasped together. Behind him, calamus, Ah Xi and Asong were also praying devoutly.

"I still lost."

Yile thought in this way with complicated emotions, he still lost to humanity in the end, at the time when Calamus and the others were about to be annihilated in the mouth of Shenying, the humanity deep in Yuan Yile's soul finally prevailed, and humanity is like this, Just like a grass struggling to survive among the stubborn rocks, as long as it shows its head, it will eventually get out of hand.

Then, his thoughts couldn't help but go back to decades ago, thinking of that ordinary but gentle woman.At this time, Yuan Yile seemed to understand something. It turned out that the moment he was melted back then, he had laid the groundwork for his own defeat decades later.

Calamus looked at Yuan Yile with a complicated expression, this strange feeling made her a little scared, and she suddenly realized that she didn't know her father at all.

"Calamus, what are you thinking?"

Calamus was a little dazed by Yuan Yile's question, and she flinched subconsciously, but she also noticed the sadness that flashed in Yile's eyes at the moment she flinched, and thought of the giant statue that collapsed at the end... The final result was I survived, not the destruction of this world.

Chaotic thoughts flickered in Changpu's mind, and finally she seemed to have made up her mind, and raised her head to look into Yile's eyes.

"Father, I want to hear your old story."

Yuan Yile was amused by his daughter, but then he smiled.

"Okay."

It was supposed to be a warm moment between father and daughter, but Asi and Asong interjected without interest.

"Teacher, where should we go next? Return to Konoha?"

The failure of the final plan left a huge void in their hearts.Looking at the two disciples, Yuan Yile couldn't help but wonder why their minds couldn't be as bright as Qingyang's.

"Of course I did. Although it's a shame, I have to admit that I lost to Qingyang in the most proud swordsmanship. So I will train you twice in the future, until one day you can defeat him with swordsmanship."

……

Miaomu Mountain, all the immortals gathered here and had a discussion.

Once again, the psychic world and the ninja world merged into one. This is a big event. The immortals feel that it is necessary to discuss how to get along with humans in the future.

As for why Mt. Miaomu was chosen as the location, on the one hand, Immortal Toad is indeed respected by everyone, and on the other hand, Mt. Miaomu is spacious enough, and the environment is also suitable for all immortals to visit.

"It is a good thing that the psychic world has been opened and we have regained our freedom, but human beings can also come here without a contract. This is not a good thing for us. I think it is necessary to take precautions in advance."

Several immortals who like to live in peace and solitude said so, and several immortals who had a neutral attitude and had little contact with humans also agreed for a while.

Immortal Big Toad didn't speak, just sat on his seat and started snoring.Seeing this scene, Immortal Baiyuan smiled helplessly and said.

"Everyone, I have a different opinion."

Immortal Baiyuan's prestige is also self-evident, and everyone looked at him unanimously.

"Before Qingyang met Wan Ling, which was incomparable to all of us. He realized Wan Ling's appeal and the hidden truth.

Today, human beings are not just the humble, greedy, and cruel species that they were at the beginning. Although they are also humble, greedy, and cruel today, they also possess noble qualities such as greatness, selflessness, and benevolence.

I think, now, maybe we can try to help Qingyang and guide them to learn how to respect and live in harmony with nature. This should be what Wanling wants. "

……

The rebuilding of Konoha proceeded very quickly. On the one hand, Qingyang had laid a good foundation before, and on the other hand, this war accelerated the advancement of the new application of Chakra.

And after the reconstruction of the village was completed, a special public trial was also held on the newly built Huoying Square.

It is not someone else who is being judged. The Hara Xiao organization from Uchiha Obito, Uchiha Itachi, Orochimaru, Yakushidou and others are all in front of the public to accept their trial.

The world is almost completely collapsed. After experiencing these things, the mentality of the people has also undergone great changes. When all the merits and demerits are publicly put on the table, the people also give them some understanding.

Their contributions in the Great War should not be obliterated, but their faults should not be forgotten. They must be recorded truthfully so that future generations can learn from them. None were sentenced to death.

After the public trial, several people walked off the trial platform accompanied by guards. Among them, Itachi received the lightest sentence. He will receive five years in prison and ten years of military service.

When walking out of the square, Itachi clearly saw Sasuke standing on the side of the road.

"Sasuke..."

When the two brothers met at this time, they didn't know what to say.The trial of Sasuke was carried out in private the day before. Since Sasuke attempted almost everything after his defection, he was not sentenced to jail, but his actions will be monitored for the next period of time.

Time has passed, and even though most of the knots in his heart are still untied, but looking at his brother Sasuke, he doesn't know what to say.In the end, Sasuke had no choice but to talk dryly about his recent plans.

"I plan to learn fairy art from Immortal White Snake. I want to explore the myriad spirits that Yaoyue Qingyang said, and understand the true meaning of this world."

Itachi didn't speak, but nodded in relief, and then signaled to the two guards beside him that they could take him away.Now the Uchiha clan is left with them and Obito, and there will never be fewer questions for them to think about in the future.

……

In this way, another year passed, and on this day Kakashi was notified and rushed to Qingyang's office.

During this year, Kakashi began to take over the military work of the village in an all-round way, conscientiously implementing Qingyang's innovation plan. The economic work has also been handed over to Lu Jiu and others.And Qingyang himself buried himself in the pile of old papers, writing more than [-] words of text every day.

"Hokage, do you need me for something?"

Entering the office, Kakashi was a little puzzled, usually there would be at least one assistant in the office, either Sai or Yakumo, but today only Qingyang was present.

"Senior Kakashi, I have an idea to ask for your opinion. So, this time, it's just a secret conversation between the two of us."

Haruhi's words caused Kakashi to speculate, but he still wanted to hear what the other party had to say.

"I would like to recommend you, senior, to succeed Hokage."

Despite this premonition, Kakashi was a little surprised.

"Why do you have such an idea, you are still very young."

Qingyang nodded, and then spoke calmly.

"It is precisely because I am still young that I have such considerations. I used to hope to change the world better, so I longed for a bigger stage. At the same time, because of the crisis, I stood at the forefront.

And after more than a year as Hokage, I realized that my age is a big problem.I could have sat in Hokage's seat for decades if I wanted to.

Not surprisingly, my prestige will become higher and higher in the future.This will bring about a very serious problem, that is, my successor will be under tremendous pressure.

And to be honest, after this ninja war, it is difficult for me to communicate with other shadows on an equal footing.This may be a good thing for Konoha in the short term, but not necessarily for the ninja world.

What Wan Ling wants is balance, which is a spiraling cycle, so it is necessary to maintain the balance between the five major countries. Taking too many steps is not a good thing for the ninja world. "

Although Kakashi understood what Haruhime said, he still said it with a wry smile.

"But why me? And your decision is too sudden, I can't do better than you, and you need to preside over many things."

Haruyo, who had expected Kakashi to say that for a long time, took out a scroll from the drawer.

"These I leave will serve a purpose, and no one but you will be able to complete them, which may be unfair to you to be honest, but you are the best person I can think of. I need these to be fulfilled in your name, Complete the smooth transition of the village."

Communication between smart people does not require too many words, Kakashi immediately understood what Qingyang meant.Qingyang's personal power and prestige are unprecedentedly high, even so high that they are out of tune with the current situation.

If Qingyang wants to implement something now, it will definitely be achieved smoothly without a doubt.But this creates a problem, that is, these policies are not carried out because "everyone agrees", but because "no one dares to oppose".

Over time, this will leave a disadvantage, one is to encourage personal expansion, and the other is to hide the voice of opposition in the dark and grow stronger.

Take the Hyuga Clan as an example. For the further development of the village, the problem of "the seal of the caged bird" must be resolved.If Qingyang gave an order now, the Hyuga clan would be afraid of his strength, so naturally they would not dare to object.

But that kind of opposition will not disappear, it will only ferment in secret. After many years, this is likely to become a historical problem that cannot be solved for a long time. It is difficult to guarantee that the Hyuga clan will not become the second Uchiha.

On the contrary, if the Hinata family is replaced with an opponent that they think they can fight against, such as Kakashi, then the Hinata family is likely to voice their opposition and put their demands on the table.

In fact, the will behind this is still Qingyang, but it also gave the Hyuga clan the illusion that the two sides are negotiating and compromising. The final actual result has not changed, but it has solved some problems that may have buried hidden dangers invisibly.

It would be a good arrangement for Qingyang to retreat bravely and Kakashi to go up to the stage, but the only thing among them is that he feels sorry for Kakashi.

Because Kakashi will become perhaps the most independent Hokage in history, his historical task is to smoothly complete Haruhi's arrangement.It's hard to say that thousands of years later, when the world talks about Kakashi, there are only two words: "puppet".

Putting everything on the table, Qingyang looked at Kakashi expressionlessly, because he was trying to persuade others to make sacrifices, so he couldn't say much.On the contrary, Kakashi smiled, picked up Qingyang's scroll and put it in his arms.

"In my current life, there have been a few years when I was full of doubts and criticisms about my father, but now I finally understand my father. A ninja is to abandon himself when necessary."

The vast majority of people are not conscious of sacrificing their lives. Kakashi, who made the decision to succeed, has courage that ordinary people cannot match.

Haruyo, who resigned from Hokage, ended up just serving as an honorary advisor in the Hokage office. Now that the situation is stable, as long as he himself is alive for a day, he will be the ballast stone of peace in the ninja world.

Qingyang, who has become a free man, decides to take a period of vacation for himself. He chooses to visit Zilaiye's home as a guest to report the old man's safety.

Speaking of which, Jiraiya and Tsunade married in a low-key manner after the Great War under the witness of a few people, and now the two are also temporary honorary consultants living in seclusion in a villa in the middle of the mountain.

However, after ringing the doorbell and walking into the yard, Qingyang realized that she had been fooled. This place is not a seclusion, it shouldn't be too lively.

Naruto moved here with Kyuubi, and at the same time he saw Orochimaru. This guy asked for the condition of actively choosing the place of imprisonment, and finally became neighbors with Jiraiya and Tsunade. Now he and Jiraiya are two People are sitting in the shade playing chess.

"Oshemaru, don't forget your identity as a prisoner. Keep a low profile and let others know that you live so comfortably. It's hard to do."

Asking Jingyin for a cup of tea, Qingyang habitually warned Orochimaru, and sat on the edge of the chess game to watch the battle.

"I heard that you have resigned as Hokage, is it really good for you to be so leisurely?"

Orochimaru said with a chuckle, but Jiraiya also patted Qingyang's shoulder with his prosthetic limb and said.

"It's good to be resigned. You should be relaxed. You should relax now and think more about yourself. I heard that you have a little girlfriend of Yanyin. What's her name..."

Ji Lai was also thinking about it, when a strange head popped out from there.

"I know, the teacher's girlfriend is called Heitu, and she is Tuying's granddaughter!"

Qingyang looked at the "talkative" girl over there, and said in surprise.

"Fu, why are you here?!"

After the war, Fu also returned to her village. Now Takigakure and Konoha have a good relationship, and the two sides are actively cooperating.

"Hey, after working in the village for a few days, Lord Feimo saw that I was working too hard and gave me a holiday."

Fu said with some embarrassment, and at the same time let go of Chongming in his arms to go and play with Jiu Lama.Qingyang understands that things are definitely not what Fu said. It is estimated that this guy will not be able to help him when he returns to the village, and it may be a disservice, so Fei Mo simply gave her another holiday.

Putting Fu's matter aside, Jiraiya began to talk about it with winks.

"Onogi's granddaughter is a good match for you. Seriously, Qingyang, you really have to hurry up. You can wait for other girls, but you can't wait. For some things, it's a pity to miss the best age. Not every man can be as old as me..."

"boom!"

Jiraiya was talking triumphantly, when suddenly he was punched on the top of the head, Tsunade gave Jiraiya a sideways glance and greeted Haruhi with a smile, and Sakura, who was following behind, hurriedly moved a chair for Tsunade to sit on.

"Tsunade-sensei, don't make any big movements with your body now, this is a dangerous stage..."

Shizune was also persuading in a cautious and gentle voice, Tsunade was upset for a while.

"You two don't need to talk too much, I know it myself."

Qingyang was wondering what was going on here, but Orochimaru said it with a smirk.

"It's time to restrain your temper, but don't forget that you are an advanced mother, Tsunade."

Haruhi's jaw almost dropped from the shock of Orochimaru's words, Tsunade felt a little embarrassed, after all, she was already a grandmother, and she was not used to being a mother suddenly, thinking of this made her feel a little childish He twisted Jiraiya's arm irritably.

Naruto, who was stupefied at the side, couldn't see the atmosphere adding fuel and vinegar at all.

"Speaking of which, I really haven't thought about it. What should I call my baby after it's born? I'm usually called Granny Tsunade, so doesn't that mean that I want to call my baby Uncle or Auntie? But I'm a lecherous fairy Should I be called my younger brother? But Dad is also a disciple of the Lustful Immortal, this generation is too messed up..."

Naruto was still babbling about his seniority, Sakura couldn't stand it anymore, and punched Naruto on the head.

"Idiot, give me enough time!"

Seeing Naruto being beaten but enjoying it, Qingyang secretly "scorned" this kid is really worthless, this guy lives in the same yard with Sakura every day, he must have been happy in his heart, but he didn't know What kind of mood is that girl who has unrequited love for Naruto...

While Qingyang was thinking this way, she was surprised to see Hinata coming out of the room with a lot of odds and ends in her hands.

"Master Jiraiya, it's time for your daily writing. Master Tsunade, it's time for you to listen to music properly according to the schedule."

"Hinata?!"

Qingyang said in surprise, he couldn't figure out why Hinata was here.Hinata was also a little surprised to see Qingyang present, and replied cautiously.

"Master Haruyo, I am the life secretary of Master Jiraiya and Master Tsunade..."

Hinata answered softly, but Naruto spoke quickly.

"After the reorganization of the ninja team, Hinata transferred to a clerical job. Now she is the life secretary of the lecherous fairy and her mother-in-law, and Ms. Shizune and Sakura are the health doctors here."

It was only then that Qingyang suddenly realized, and then thought that Hokage and the Hyuga clan in the village were discussing reform matters. It seems that Hinata's transfer to work here at this time is probably a kind of protection for her daughter by Hinata Hyuzu.

Looking at Hinata's eyes when she secretly looked at Naruto, thinking about the chasing relationship between Sasuke, Sakura, Naruto, and Hinata, Qingyang secretly smiled.

However, while snickering, Qingyang also thought of the black soil in the distance. Since the end of the war, the two have never seen each other until now, and they have always been in touch with each other through letters. It's time to go to Heitu to express his missing.

……

Summer is over, and the weather in Yanyin is still as hot as ever in September. The previous collapse of the world has a great impact on Yanyin, but fortunately, people in the Land of Earth are used to living with rocks, and wood Thanks to Ye's assistance to the villages, Yan Yin's life quickly returned to normal.

However, Heitu has been in a bad mood recently, thinking that the bastard hadn't heard from her for a month, and she became very angry.Hearing that that guy had resigned from Hokage, but he didn't say he came to see him for so long, Kuroto felt his face was swollen with anger.

Today is her birthday, Heitu has made up her mind, if that guy doesn't express anything, she will never talk to him!Dusk was over, and there was a cool wind blowing outside the window, but the black soil was still irritable.

Hei Tu looked at herself in the mirror, left and right, but she was the only one here, and she couldn't help throwing the mirror off the dressing table angrily.

The mirror shattered all over the floor, which made Heitu even more irritable. Just when she was about to lose her temper, she saw a small crocodile crawling up from the side of the dressing table.

Seeing this crocodile, Heitu's heart pounded like a deer, that bastard really didn't forget it!

Then she saw that the crocodile was carrying an exquisite box, and the crocodile took off the box and let it lie flat on the table, as if signaling Heitu to open it.

There is a beautiful necklace here, and there is also a bright gemstone hanging on it. Heitu couldn't put it down, but he put the necklace back with joy, and then said to the crocodile.

"Is there a letter from that bastard?"

The crocodile looked at her blankly and shook his head, and Heitu asked again unwillingly.

"Then did he ask you to bring anything else?"

The crocodile still shook his head, Heitu was a little annoyed, and said while holding up the box.

"Is there nothing but it?!"

This time the crocodile nodded, but this was the last answer that Heitu wanted. He immediately stood up angrily, grabbed the box and was about to throw it out.

"Who wants his broken necklace!"

However, before the box was thrown out, Heitu's hand stopped in the air, and the necklace box turned into dots of light and formed a figure in front of Heitu.

Qingyang lightly supported Hao's wrist, and joked with a smile.

"Are you going to throw me out?"

Seeing her sweetheart suddenly appear in front of her, Heitu covered her mouth in surprise, but soon put down her hand and punched Qingyang on the shoulder.

"Why are you so wretched!"

Qingyang couldn't laugh or cry at this sentence, but he didn't expect that the surprise he carefully prepared would be rewarded with such a comment from Heitu, and he didn't know how to deal with it for a while.

"I... I thought you'd like it."

Seeing Qingyang's foolishness, Heitu burst out laughing.

"Stupid, I like it to death."

A pair of young men and women hugged each other tightly, forgetting all the love words that were full of love for a while, they just wanted to enjoy the tranquility at this moment.

After a long time, the two separated, Qingyang solemnly put the necklace on Heitu, and whispered in her ear.

"The next thing is the surprise I really want to give you."

After all, amidst Heitu's soft cry, Qingyang flew out of the open window with Heitu in his arms.The two flew higher and higher, enjoying the beautiful night sky, with a bright moon above their heads, and the most beautiful fireworks bestowed on them by all spirits blooming around them.

"is it beautiful?"

Qingyang asked a little proudly, Heitu buried his face in Qingyang's arms, his eyes narrowed into two crescent moons.

"Ok!"

The peaceful and beautiful night sky witnesses them, and I hope the two can enjoy tonight to the fullest.Maybe there are still many things waiting for them tomorrow, but there is no need to worry, after all, life is still long.
