People are in Konoha, scientific achievements are followed by blood

"I heard that in the battle in the Kingdom of Wind, that guy Nakaya Yuki died..."

I don't know who it was, but suddenly brought up a heavy topic, making the atmosphere suddenly tense.

"Nakaya Yuki?"

Yayoi was also stunned. He hadn't heard of this name for a long time.Yayoi was not deeply impressed by this child whom she had beaten to death.

I only know that he was Minato's teammate for a while, but then there was no news, probably because he couldn't keep up with his strength and was assigned to another team.

"Speaking of which, Nakamura at the same time was also seriously injured and disabled and could no longer be a ninja..."

"And Konda, Kenichi, Kaito..."

The atmosphere suddenly became heavy.

Counting them down, it turned out that among the many genin who graduated in the same period, nearly half of them had quit the ranks of ninjas due to disability or death.

This was due to the healing potion Yayoi prescribed for Konoha even when Kirigakure did not participate in the war. It was also the reason why many ninjas were able to survive with disabilities.

Although the ninjas who graduated in the past have more experience, the damage rate may not be much lower. Especially for those batches of genin who graduated in a hurry during the war, the casualty rate may be even more shocking.

Although some of these people are not close to them, the emotion of hurting others is still easily contagious.

Futami Yuka's eyes darkened, even Tsuji Rei became silent for a rare moment, and Hinata Rie looked at herself even more worriedly.

Uzumaki Kushina looked nonchalant, and in turn comforted Riyi:

"Don't worry about this guy, he is very powerful! Moreover, our Uzumaki clan will not die that easily!"

Yayoi naturally noticed Riyi's worries and comforted her:

"Don't worry, Li Yi, this war is almost over."

At the same time, he added silently in his heart:

'I will protect you from now on.And, one day, I will transcend life and death. '

With the knowledge stolen from the Heretic Golem, Yayoi obtained the biggest piece of the puzzle in history. He now has a clearer understanding of the path he planned to follow in the Blood Succession Snare.

The next step is to keep experimenting.

"Yes, the war is almost over, and everyone no longer needs to go to the battlefield." Yuka Fumi also agreed with Yayoi's statement.

"Yo Xi!" Within a few minutes of being sad, Ling Kamizhuji's expression became cheerful again.

"Let's drink to the end of the war!"

She casually picked up a cup of hot tea from the tray held by the pharmacist and drank it in one gulp.

"Ah! Hot! Hot! Hot!"

Such a reckless behavior was naturally retaliated by the hot water of [-] to [-] degrees Celsius.

The taste of this high-temperature hot water is much more exciting than most soju!

"It's burning me to death! Help! Yuka-chan!"

With tears in his eyes and a pitiful look on his face, Kamitsuji Rei asked Yuka Futami who was closest to him for help.

As for the little pharmacist Kabuto who was holding the tray, he had already ducked aside when Utsuji Ling drank the bowl of hot tea in order to prevent her from spitting it out.

But he never thought that this primitive kunoichi would actually swallow this cup of scalding hot tea, which was astonishing to him.

'When most people are burned, they will spit out the water immediately, right? What the hell is that when you have to swallow it even if you cry? ! '

She couldn't laugh or cry because of the live treasure Kamitsuji Rei, and the sentimental atmosphere was greatly reduced. Several people didn't know what to say about her.

The few of them chatted for a while, and Yayoi even cooked a few side dishes for the first time in a long time.

After having enough wine and food, the sky is getting dark.

Futami Yuka dragged Kamishuji Rei to say goodbye to them. Ku Yukina wanted to stay for a while, but Yayoi drove her back on the pretext of sending Rii home. The remaining little pharmacist Kabuto was responsible for cleaning up the mess. Party scene.

Under the night, with the stars in the sky above their heads and the lights on the street, Yayoi and Riyi walked forward slowly, side by side.

The two of them were silent all the way, and Li Yi seemed to just enjoy this rare peace.

Nearing the end, Yayoi spoke first.

"Li Yi, after the war is over, I will be busy for a while..."

"Ah."

Riyi's answer was a simple 'hmm', as if she wasn't surprised by Yayoi's words.

"I know, Yayoi. You have always had your own plans in mind, right? You have been like this since the first time we met."

Li Yi smiled gently and continued:

"At that time, you looked so young, but you seemed to be more mature than me. You always had something hidden in your heart, and sometimes you were very anxious..."

"At that time, I was thinking that this child must be carrying something heavy. For example, something that must be done..."

"..." Yayoi was speechless for a moment.

"So, Yayoi, I hope you can do what you have to do with peace of mind, but please don't be anxious..."

Li Yi turned around and her voice sounded very serious:

"I want to be your strength..."

……

After parting ways with Riyi, Yayoi returned to her small courtyard alone.

He looked at some of his past actions and asked himself, was he really, as Li Yi said, a little too eager?

"No!"

In the end, Yayoi came to a completely opposite conclusion.

"On the contrary, my progress is too slow!"

Even though Yayoi has the advantage of a time traveler's memory, she is still just a researcher alone.

Even research geniuses like Orochimaru or Senju Tobirama can only focus on some research fields. After being dispersed into multiple fields, they only bring countless unfinished products.

However, for Yayoi, there is a lot of information that cannot be shared with others, not even Riyi or anyone else. This is not just a matter of trust.

His thoughts and ideas are a mixture of the two worlds.

Only similar experiences can produce empathy, and empathy can produce empathy, and only then can we become comrades.

In Payne's words: 'Human beings are stupid creatures who cannot understand each other no matter what. '

Therefore, Payne's method is: let the world feel pain, let everyone feel the same pain, and let pain become the basis of empathy.

The Six Paths chose to establish the Ninja Sect to connect different people's hearts with chakra to create empathy.

Naruto's 'mouth escape' when persuading Obito was based on this property of chakra. Based on their similar experiences, the two could empathize with each other.

And the only one who can achieve empathy and become a comrade with Yayoi is another person who has the memory of a time traveler.

Therefore, there are no 'comrades' in Yayoi on this path.

For most of the journey, he had to cross it alone, even if it was very inefficient.
