The pain of the night of genocide! A magatama instantly opens a kaleidoscope

"This is a good goal, I like it very much." Kanon applauded Pain.

"So, Brother Feidan, making money is also a very important part."

"I understand!" Feiduan's voice was indeed much softer.

"Deidara, how about you and Afei teaming up?" Kanon asked.

"It's okay, this guy A Fei..."

Before Deidara could finish his words, Afei answered first.

"Senior is such a nice person, even though I don't understand his art..."

"Anyway, we get along well..." Deidara was speechless. Afei's usually erratic personality made him want to kill him with his scissors kick.

"Okay, enough small talk, let's get ready to seal the tailed beasts."

......

Konoha Village.

Tsunade's office.

She lowered her head, not daring to look directly at Shikamaru and Gang Zitetsu.

At this time, two of the four people in Asuma's team had died, leaving only Shikamaru and Gang Zitetsu alive.

Tsunade's expression was slightly painful because the order she gave this time was too radical.

There are four people in each class. Although the twenty teams are large in scale, the large-scale search for Hidan Kanon, Kakuzu and the other two disperses a lot of combat power, and it is difficult to support each other within 150 kilometers.

Moreover, many of them are not even at the level of Jonin. Facing an opponent as terrifying as Uchiha Kanon, they might be wiped out even if it was four against one, let alone four against three.

Moreover, they had no information about the abilities of Kakuzu, Hidan, and Kanon, so they could only delay time and wait for support for thirty minutes.

It was because of his radical command that Kamijou Izumo and Asuma were sacrificed. After all, he was not mature enough and was not a competent Hokage.

After listening to Gang Zitie's detailed description, Tsunade gritted her teeth and said with regret: "This... is it so..."

"Um, Hong over there..." Gang Zitie also looked a little sad.

Tsunade took a deep breath. She was the Hokage now and could not lose her composure. So she suppressed her grief and acted as if nothing had happened. She said, "You guys go contact the relevant personnel to hold the funeral."

"Red side, I will take care of it..."

"No...I'll go." Shikamaru interrupted Tsunade.

"I'll convey it."

"Captain Asuma, there is something else I need to pass on."

......

While Naruto was developing a new ninjutsu, the three shadow clones began to gather the Rasengan chakra, which surprised Kakashi.

"I see, this is what you thought of."

"Originally, the Rasengan is fired by both the Chakra Releaser and the Form Changer. You..."

Naruto smiled as he listened to Kakashi figure out the principle.

"That's right. Just use three of me to change the nature of the wind."

"If one person can't take care of both sides, then he can split into two people, one looking at the left and the other looking at the right!"

"Just come and share this work!"

Kakashi nodded in approval.

But he also had his own ideas in mind.

"That being said, this method is also effective against Naruto who has huge chakra and shadow clone jutsu."

"Not to mention myself, even if Minato-sensei came, this method would not work."

"Perhaps only Naruto and that guy can use this move..." Kakashi now thought of Kanon, who had a lot of chakra like Naruto.

This method might work for her as well, but after all, it was Naruto who developed this ninjutsu first.

"As expected, you are the most unexpected ninja, Naruto." Kakashi said with a smile.

Naruto was confused. He always felt weird seeing Kakashi praising him like that.

"I don't know why, but I like you more and more now."

As soon as these words were spoken, Naruto's three shadow clones were stunned. A feeling of nausea came over them, and the Rasenshuriken exploded instantly. Naruto was blown away, and the two shadow clones disappeared instantly.

"What the hell! Don't say such disgusting things all of a sudden!"

"You bastard, you scared me to death."

"The ninjutsu that I succeeded with so much difficulty was broken just like that."

"No, that's not what I meant." Kakashi said as he approached Naruto like a gay.

"Don't come over here!"

"Don't come over!!!"

Yamato sat cross-legged on the ground, watching Kakashi and Naruto's antics, and shook his head helplessly.

"Really? What are those two doing..."

Suddenly, Gang Zi Tie jumped in front of Yamato.

"A letter has come."

Naruto and Kakashi were stunned to see the exchange between Yamato and Gang Zitetsu in the distance.

"What's going on?" Naruto wondered.

After a while, Yamato stood up and said to Kakashi.

"Senior Kakashi, let's stop our training and go back to the village."

Naruto was immediately a little dissatisfied, because he was about to develop a new technique!

"What happened?" Kakashi wondered.

But from Yamato's face, one could only see heaviness and sadness, and even cold sweat was running down his face.

"Mr. Sarutobi Asuma..."

"Killed in action."

Yamato told Naruto and Kakashi all the information he received.

Naruto and Kakashi both opened their eyes wide, and their pupils even kept shrinking. A gust of wind came and blew up Naruto and Kakashi's hair, but a feeling of sadness filled Naruto and Kakashi's hearts.

Naruto's eyes kept shrinking, but Kakashi was the one with the most complicated emotions at the moment. After all, Asuma was a ninja of the same period as him.

On the other side of Konoha, Kurenai Yuhi's pupils shrank to the size of needles as she watched Shikamaru bow his head in front of her and bring back the news of Asuma's death. The surrounding voices continued to be noisy.

This strong, pregnant jonin woman finally shed tears, and the tears withered along with the flowers on her balcony.

In this dim and gloomy corridor, the only ones left were Shikamaru with his head lowered and Hong who was standing there in a daze.

The next moment, Hong collapsed to the ground. She couldn't accept this fact and burst into tears.

Asma was gone, and only she and the only child of Asma in her belly were left alive in the world. She could not accept this outcome.

She would be a widow and her child would face the situation of being without a father. Such emotional shock finally caused Xi Rihong, a strong woman, to collapse.

In front of the Martyrs' Monument of Konoha, Kurenai Yuhi personally placed bouquets of flowers in front of the tombstones of Asuma and Kamijou Izumo. Behind her were the condolences of all the ninjas of Konoha.

The leader was Tsunade. As the Hokage, she made such a radical command and the responsibility this time was on her.

Kakashi lowered his head, and Might Guy cried loudly, because he used to be in the same class with Asuma.

"Asuma..." Kakashi murmured regretfully.

Next to Naruto, Sarutobi Konohamaru cried loudly. His grandfather, the Sandaime Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, was gone, and now his uncle Sarutobi Asuma was also dead.

"Uncle Asuma..."

He was the only one left in the Sarutobi family, and there was a child in the red belly.

The two members of Team 10 lowered their heads, their hearts filled with mixed feelings. Ino murmured to Choji, "Where's Shikamaru?"

"My aunt clearly said that he had gone out."

At this moment, Shikamaru did not attend Asuma's funeral. He did not have the face to face Asuma, nor did he have the face to attend his funeral.

He sat on a roof, constantly lighting Asma's lighter, as if his memories with Asma were reflected in this small fire.

In his eyes, everything seemed to turn gray, even the children playing on the street no longer had any color.

He walked on the street with his hands in his pockets, passing by the prosperous areas of Konoha and also the desolate areas of Konoha.

He was walking aimlessly when suddenly, an aunt from a barbecue restaurant called out to Shikamaru.

"Shikamaru!"

"Ah, hello."

"Long time no see, have you been busy lately?"

"more or less."

"Please come when you have time, and say hello to Asuma-sensei and Choji for me."

Shikamaru wanted to say something but stopped himself, as if something was stuck in his throat. Suddenly, Big Mom seemed to remember something.

"Oh, right! It's time to collect Asuma's debt."

"Well, that... Asuma..."

"Huh?" Auntie was confused.

"Died in the line of duty." Shikamaru lowered his head and conveyed these words to Big Mom with difficulty.

The lady who was sweeping the floor dropped her dustpan and broom to the ground in an instant, and her pupils shrank suddenly.

"Could it be that the person who was killed by Akatsuki yesterday was..."

As she spoke, the aunt began to cry softly.

"how come..."

Afterwards, Shikamaru sat alone on the steps again, watching the afternoon sun gradually turn into dusk, and finally into night.

"Shikamaru, it's almost time for dinner."

"No, I don't have much appetite."

In the deep night, a crescent moon like a thin hook hangs in the sky, casting a faint silver glow, adding a touch of mysterious poetry to the quiet night.

Shikamaru was still sitting in the yard thinking carefully. At this moment, his father, Nara Shikaku came out.

Looking at my son, I found that he has become a little mature, but not that mature. Facing the departure of a close person, I feel more helpless and bewildered than sad, and then little by little, the depression becomes heavier.

He also sighed softly.

"Shikamaru, come stay with me for a while."

So the father and son started playing shogi in the dim, candlelit room.

"Xiao...?"

"Are Uchiha Kanon and those other guys very strong?" Shikaku asked softly while playing chess.

Shikamaru simply gave a perfunctory reply and started moving his own pieces.

"So, what should we do?"

Seeing that his son remained silent, Shikaku continued, "If even Asuma can't beat them."

"Are you going to die again?"

"He's such a good man."

"Yeah..." Shikamaru responded with his head down.

"Although I am a terrible chess player..."

Shikaku seemed to notice something wrong with Shikamaru's chess playing and asked quietly in confusion.

"Is this okay?"

"Don't pick on your opponent's play."

"No, I'm asking about your plans."

Shikamaru was stunned. Looking at his own calm expression, he felt a strange feeling for the first time.

"Forget it. Anyway, you are not stupid enough to go and die."

"As your father, I am also very pleased."

"I don't want to have a funeral for my son."

"You have done a great job, and we as parents are very proud of you."

Finally, Shikamaru's expression changed, he lowered his head even more, and it seemed that there was an invisible anger ready to emanate.

But Shikaku still didn't stop, and continued to poke at the saddest part of Shikamaru's heart.

"You are smart and talented. Fortunately, the two Uchiha family members are gone. In this case, you will definitely be a pillar that can support the future of Konoha Village."

"But Asuma is dead."

As soon as he said this, Shikamaru punched the chessboard away and even extinguished the candle.

"What the hell do you want to say!" Shikamaru yelled at his father.

“It’s just what I feel in my heart.”

"I'm in a bad mood right now, and you keep talking! Anyway, I'm just a useless coward, and I'm no match for Kanon and Sasuke!"

"No." Lu Jiu shook his head.

"Then, what is that!"

Seeing his son's defense broken, Shikaku also stood up and looked directly at Shikamaru.

"Let it out."

"Sadness, fear, anger."

"Let everything out from your heart."

Shikamaru looked at his father tremblingly, tears streaming down his cheeks, and he clenched his fists.

“Then, use this as a starting point.”

With that, Shikaku left the room, leaving Shikamaru alone to cry loudly.

Listening to his son crying in the corridor, Lu Jiu felt very uncomfortable.

"This is something that both Uchiha Sasuke and Uchiha Kanon can do. Shikamaru, you are no worse than them, and there is no reason for you to hide it in your heart."

"After you've let out your anger, cheer yourself up..."
