After Baibuchi rescued Hatake Sakumo, he took him out of Konoha overnight. His body was driven hundreds of miles like a meteor. He took him to the "Ozuki Town" where he once lived, found a hotel, and took Hatake out of Konoha. Sakumo settled down.

Mikoto came over and handed a bottle of water to Shirabuchi. Shirobuchi came to Hatake Sakumo to drink it. Hatake Sakumo coughed a few times, his eyelids suddenly moved away, and he stared blankly at the ceiling with the warm yellow chandelier. .

His lips trembled and opened slightly:

"Where am I?"

Turning his head slightly, he saw Bai Yuan.

"Bai Yuan?"

Bai Yuan said softly:

"you're awake."

Hatake Sakumo stood up straight and looked around. He was surrounded by a completely unfamiliar environment. He couldn't believe it:

"Am I dead? How did I get here?"

Looking at Shirabuchi who said nothing, Hatake Sakumo understood something:

"It was you who saved me..."

Hatake Sakumo's expression suddenly became complicated. He originally wanted to seek death, but now he was saved by Shirabuchi. He felt neither hatred nor gratitude.

He lay down on something, leaning his back on the soft mattress, and sighed:

"Since I've already decided to die, why do you have to settle for me...I'm just a waste..."

Bai Yuan shook his head:

"Why do you think you're useless?"

"Because... I gave up the mission. The greatest shame as a ninja is to give up the mission..."

"Isn't it a shame to abandon your friends for the mission? The top management of Konoha wanted you to die, so you died in vain? Remember, they are all rotten people, and all those bastards combined can't compare to you! Millions of dollars Don’t seek death as they wish!”

Shirabuchi grabbed Hatake Sakumo's collar and roared, making him look slightly stunned.

Putting down Hatake Sakumo's collar, Shirabuchi's eyes were as bright as fire:

"You have taken your responsibilities too seriously. The failure of the mission is not entirely due to you. To be ashamed, it must be borne by all of us who participated in the operation. After you died, did you think about your son Kakashi?" ?"

Hatake Sakumo's eyes gradually became moist, and he couldn't bear to say:

"Kakashi...I'm sorry for him..."

The three people in the room were silent.

After a while, Hatake Sakumo calmed down a little, and he said softly:

"It's just that you saved me, but I'm already dead in name. I can't find the meaning of life."

Bai Yuan asked again:

"Then what was the meaning of your life before?"

Hatake Sakumo raised his calloused hand:

"Swing the sword, keep swinging the sword, swing the sword for Konoha, swing the sword for the will of fire."

Putting down his hand, he smiled miserably:

"Now that I have been abandoned by Konoha, my 'sword' has no use value."

"Have you never thought about living as an upright person instead of being a knife?"

Hatake Sakumo shook his head:

"As an outsider, you don't understand Konoha. All Konoha ninjas are born to fight for Konoha. Wherever the leaves are flying, fire is endless. Death is not worth mentioning to us. The fire of fallen leaves will It will continue to illuminate the village and cause new leaves to sprout.”

When Hatake Sakumo said these words, his expression was proud, but it quickly dimmed:

"What's the use of saying this now? My life is meaningless without Konoha."

He looked at Bai Yuan with pleading eyes and tone:

"Yuan, kill me. This is my last request to you."

Bai Yuan shook his head:

"Forgiveness is hard to obey."

Hatake Sakumo raised his palm, stretched out two fingers, attached sharp wind escape chakra to the fingertips, and aimed at his throat.

"Then it's up to me to do it again."

The fingertips that gathered the wind escape chakra stabbed towards his throat. The scene of flying blood that Hatake Sakumo imagined did not appear. When his fingertips were still one centimeter away from his throat, stopped.

Hatake Sakumo's eyes were filled with surprise. He exerted force again, and his fingers seemed to be out of the control of his brain. No matter how hard he tried, he could not move forward an inch.

"Yuan, what did you do to me?"

Bai Yuan shrugged:

"You were already dead, but I used extremely special methods to bring you back, such as turning you into a dependent."

"Family..."

Hatake Sakumo exhausted all his strength and was unable to kill himself no matter what method he used. He lay down helplessly, panting heavily and said to Shirabuchi:

"In other words, my life belongs to you now..."

Bai Yuan held his head with his hands:

"Well...it seems like this..."

Hatake Sakumo smiled bitterly:

"Then there's nothing we can do..."

"There's really nothing I can do...!"

Even though he has been in the world of Naruto for so long, Bai Yuan can't understand the brain circuits of ninjas. The generation gap between the two sides is far apart.

However, Hatake Sakumo was a powerful fighter and someone he respected. He definitely didn't want Hatake Sakumo to remain depressed.

Bai Yuan stretched out his fist and said with a bright smile:

"Since you have already died once, can't you think that you have started a new life?"

"A new life?"

"Well, in a new life, forget about Konoha, White Fang, ninjas, and all the damn things. Now you are yourself, a brand new self. You are now a blank piece of paper, and your future life is made up of Write it yourself!"

I don't know if it was because he had been hanging out with Naiya for a long time or for some reason, but Bai Yuan suddenly found that his current speech was inexplicably inflammatory.

Hatake Sakumo was thoughtful:

"Writing a new chapter of life in the future?"

"Well, anyway... you can't die now. Since you can't die, you might as well live happily."

Bai Yuan stretched out his hand and pointed to the ceiling, but his eyes seemed to penetrate through the ceiling and reach into the deeper starry sky:

"You know, the entire universe is made up of many, endless worlds, and the ninja world is just one of them. There are thousands of worlds, thousands of starry skies, and thousands of races competing for hegemony. The whole universe is so wonderful, don't you want to go there? Take a look!"

When Shirabuchi said what he said, not only Hatake Sakumo, but also Mikoto was also surprised.

"The huge ninja world is actually just one of thousands of worlds..."

They imagined the greatness and splendor of the vast sky and couldn't help but be trance-like.

After a long while, Hatake Sakumo raised his fist and touched Bai Yuan's fist.

"Well, Yuan, no, I should call you Bai Yuan now. Bai Yuan, I really can't do anything to you. Even if you miss, you won't let me die."

Bai Yuan scratched his head and smiled shyly.

Hatake Sakumo also laughed:

"There is no other way. I can only accompany you to see the vastness of the stars."

Two fists containing faith collided.
