After traveling through time, I became friends with Tsunade

Mr. Sakumo:

If Zhenhong handed this letter to you, then perhaps you would have already had the thought of committing suicide.

I won't stop you, after all, it's your choice.

However, do you know why you are doing all this?

Reputation? Public opinion is something that anyone can become a hero if it can be manipulated skillfully. Similarly, anyone can also become a rat crossing the street that everyone shouts and beats.

If you feel guilty, then deep down you also feel that you did something wrong. After all, in wartime, people die every day, and it's not entirely your fault.

But if you don't think you did anything wrong, why do you choose to escape? Death is simple, but the living will be in deep pain.

If people can live, why would they choose to die?

Can you still hold a knife? Can you still fight in battle?

If that's all right, then go to the Thunder Kingdom front. There is your stage, where you can prove yourself and avenge your deceased companions.

Don't forget, Kakashi has always been proud to have a father like you.

Don’t you want to watch him grow up and start a family?

......

I don’t know how many times he has watched it over and over again, or maybe he was just lost in thought. Xihi Shinku didn’t disturb him, but just stayed by his side quietly.

Slowly, Hatake Sakumo's originally dull eyes gradually regained their spirit. He slowly put down the bottle in his hand, and then gently tidied his hair. The moment he stood up, Yuhi Shinku seemed to see a completely different person.

His entire mental state seemed to have experienced a baptism, as if he had been reborn, and was full of vitality again.

"Thank you, Yusuke!"

His eyes were still fixed on the letter Yusuke had given him as he uttered these words very solemnly, even though Yusuke couldn't hear them at all, but perhaps Hatake Sakumo just wanted to say it to himself.

"Shinku, tell Yusuke that from today on, Konoha White Fang is dead."

The short sword that had never left Hatake Sakumo was unsheathed again. He stared at it with guilt on his face, then turned his gaze to Yuhi Shinku, "The one standing in front of you right now is just an ordinary Konoha ninja, Hatake Sakumo!"

Then, he quickly cleared all the bottles on the table one by one, and then said to Yuhi Shinku with an apologetic look, "I'm sorry for making you worry."

"Kakashi!" In fact, Yuhi Shinku had already discovered Kakashi who had been hiding in the dark, and now it was time for Kakashi to appear.

"Uncle Shinku." Kakashi walked out slowly, bowed deeply to Yuhi Shinku, and said with gratitude.

He saw everything, and this series of changes in his father made Kakashi feel incomparably happy.

"Stay with Kakashi." Yuhi Shinku gently stroked Kakashi's hair, "I'll go back first. I hope you can cherish your current life."

After saying that, Yuhi Shinku had a relieved and happy smile on her face, and left the Hatake family's house with brisk steps.

At that moment, the white moonlight seemed to shine through the window onto Hatake Sakumo and Kakashi, as if celebrating the new life of the father and son.

Konoha Prison.

The dripping sound of water seemed to be a long-time visitor here, and the rhythmic sound kept echoing in this silent space.

At this time, more than a hundred Sand Ninjas were imprisoned here, and Chiyo was no exception.

She had thought about committing suicide countless times because she really didn't want to become a bargaining chip in such a humiliating way.

However......

Whenever she had made all the preparations, she would involuntarily think of Scorpion in her mind, the man to whom she had poured all her emotions, even the love for his parents.

But such a grandson whom she loved so much is now unknown whether he is alive or dead.

Furthermore, the rumors in the village made her extremely angry. They were all saying that Scorpion disappeared after assassinating the Third Kazekage. After all, Scorpion had a history of doing this.

In this quiet space, the sound of light footsteps slowly sounded, as if afraid to break the silence of this world.

Chiyo slowly closed her eyes and didn't pay any attention to it until the footsteps stopped in front of her.

"Long time no see, Chiyo." The leader, Sarutobi Hiruzen, said with a pipe in his mouth, looking nostalgic, "I never thought we would meet again in this place."

"Sarutobi Hiruzen." Chiyo opened her eyes sharply after hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice. "My skills are inferior to others. If you want to come here to humiliate me, there is no need to do so."

"No." Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head, then sat on the chair brought to him by his subordinates and continued, "I just want to ask about the situation of the Third Kazekage."

"Didn't it your Konoha who sent people to assassinate him?" Chiyo still held on to a glimmer of hope and said sarcastically to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"We never start a war." Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and said affirmatively, "Konoha has always advocated peace since the first Hokage. Why would we assassinate the Third Kazekage?"

"The winner can say whatever he wants." Chiyo said no more nonsense and continued, "If you want to use me as a threat to force the Sand Ninja to help Konoha, then don't dream on."

She thought of the midnight a few days ago and said bitterly, "Unless you hand over Watanabe Yusuke to the Sand Village for disposal, otherwise, the tens of thousands of ninjas in the Sand Village will not compromise."

"Impossible." Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head firmly, "Not to mention that Yusuke is my disciple and a hero of Konoha. Konoha will not hand him over even if he is a Genin."

"Haha." Chiyo sneered, "Sarutobi Hiruzen and Watanabe Yusuke slaughtered thousands of our Sand Ninjas, but he never thought of leaving any alive. Such people, even if they sit on the position of the Fourth Hokage, will only bring endless disasters to your Konoha."

"Instead of trying to sow discord, you might as well think about how to get these companions home safely." Koharu Utane, who was standing next to her, spoke up, looking at her with disdain.

"Utane Koharu, it seems that during these years as an elder in Konoha, the only thing you have improved is your eloquence." Chiyo was not willing to be outdone, and did not behave at all like a prisoner should.

"Here are pens and paper. If you don't want the war to continue, think carefully about how to write this letter."

Mitomon En and Utane Koharu echoed each other and continued, "Yusuke is already prepared and can invade your Wind Country at any time."
