I, who was determined to stay in Naruto, became the white moonlight

Haruko didn't come to see them often in the morning, but every time she came, she would teach Xiaonan the special folding techniques she had learned, so the number of origami in the glass jar was also... the number of times she came to see them.

Xiaonan carefully took the purple rose from her hand and used some tricks to pin it on her head.

It was like a purple flower hairpin, just like the one on Haruko's head that morning.

Morning Haruko finally understood what she meant and smiled, "Our Xiaonan looks beautiful in anything!"

Xiaonan blushed a little, but couldn't help asking, "Did Sister Qingzi make the hairpin herself?"

Qingzi was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously touched the hairpin on her head, "It was given to me by someone else..."

"It's really beautiful! Sister Haruko wears it all the time. It must have a very important meaning to you, right?"

"It does have a very important meaning..." Haruko Asagi thought of the man, but she still cheered up and said, "But compared to who gave it to me, I cherish the person who put it on for me again more."

Xiaonan opened his eyes wide, "What is his relationship with Sister Haruko?"

The three boys who were pretending to be eating at the back also pricked up their ears, not wanting to miss what Haruko said in the morning.

Speaking of that man, Haruko Asako's expression softened all of a sudden. "He is an important friend of mine. Although he always has a stern face, he is more careful and cautious than anyone else."

"We have known each other since childhood. He didn't like me at first, but then something happened that brought us together and I began to really understand him."

"He has an answer that he will spend his whole life pursuing. Whether the ending will be light or dark, even I can't be sure."

"But I just hope he can protect himself. No matter what path he chooses, I hope he can see me along the way."

Xiaonan was so shocked that she covered her mouth, and you could vaguely see through her fingers her slightly red cheeks as she heard it.

The three boys behind were dumbfounded. Jiraiya's brain was working like crazy, but no matter how he thought about it, he felt that it was that guy Orochimaru!!!

So the hairpin that Haruko has been wearing since she was a child was actually given to her by Orochimaru? ! How can it be fixed!

Haruko noticed their expressions and couldn't help but laugh.

In the morning, Haruko lowered her eyes and clenched her crossed hands.

Sasuke, wait for me, I will come to save you...

It was a reunion and also a separation. After Jiraiya finished teaching ninjutsu, he and Haruko Hayama had to leave the Hidden Rain Village.

"It's up to you guys from now on. You've worked really hard over the past three years!"

Listening to Jiraiya's cheerful words, Yahiko almost couldn't help crying, and the other two also looked reluctant.

Konan rushed over and hugged Haruko Hayama's waist tightly. Feeling her body trembling from crying, Haruko Hayama patted her back gently.

“Although it is said that with great power comes great responsibility, I hope you can choose the path you want to take. I will always be proud of you!”

After comforting the three people, Haruko and Jiraiya set out on their journey back to Konoha in the morning.

"Jiraiya, haven't you finished your novel yet?"

"It's almost there, just one final push away."

"Then I guess your legs are disabled. It's been three years since I left for the first time and you haven't finished writing a single book."

"What do you know? Art is constantly honed in life!"

"Why did you think of writing a novel?"

Hearing Haruko's question from the morning, Jiraiya recalled his childhood.

At that time, you could always see Haruko wandering around the bookstore in the morning. She seemed to be looking for a book, but always to no avail.

"Haruko, what are you looking for?" Jiraiya came over and asked.

Haruko Asako replied a little disappointedly, "It's a romance novel, but I don't know what kind of romance novel I'm looking for."

"Huh? Sure enough, girls like to read this kind of thing. But it's just a romance novel, there should be a lot of them, right?"

Morning Haruko shook her head, "No, there is no copy of the book I'm looking for."

"You didn't find this book in a dream, did you?" Jiraiya asked curiously.

"It's possible that it hasn't been written yet. My friend... likes that book very much." Haruko's thoughts seemed to drift far away in the morning, and she gently stroked the bookshelf.

"It hasn't been written down yet? What are you talking about?" Jiraiya felt that she was just playing a joke on him.

Morning Haruko patted his shoulder helplessly, imitating Sarutobi Hiruzen's tone and said: "Konoha's entertainment has a long way to go!"

"..."

Although he didn't understand what she was saying, the young Jiraiya silently remembered this in his heart.

It's impossible to say that I started writing because of a book that some idiot dreamed of, right? Wouldn't that make me an idiot? !

Jiraiya's lips curled up, "Who knows? Just write if you want to."

……

I heard that the three of them later founded "Akatsuki" with Yahiko as the leader, determined to create world peace without relying on extreme force, and also invited many talented people to join the organization.

In the blink of an eye, Akatsuki grew stronger and more famous. Jiraiya and Haruko Hayama, who were far away in Konoha, could occasionally hear about their battle stories.

But in the world, the three major countries of Iwate, Konoha, and Sand are still at war. Hanzo, the leader of the Hidden Rain Village at the center of the war, heard about their organization and approached them.

[……

He said that he wanted us to be the axis and propose peace negotiations to the three major countries, and use our power to make the three major countries reach a peace agreement. I think this is what we want to do, so Yahiko agreed to him.

Sister Haruko, we will make you and Teacher Jiraiya proud of us.

——Xiaonan]

Although Xiaonan was full of expectations for the future in the letter, Haruko Zaoma looked unhappy when she received the letter.

This Hanzo is not a good guy...

Tsunade and her group had fought against them before, and it was obvious that Hanzo saw that he couldn't beat them so he quickly ran away. Before running away, he gave them the title of "Three Ninjas of Konoha" to show off his own power.

No, I have to go take a look.

In the morning, Haruko approached Jiraiya and proposed to go to the Hidden Rain Village, but was stopped by Jiraiya.

"They can solve it themselves. Besides, this is an internal matter of Amegakure. If the two of us from Konoha get involved, it will be easy for us to be tainted." Jiraiya looked at her seriously.

Of course, Haruko Asagi knew all this, but she was really worried about them, "But that Hanzo is obviously not a good guy, what if Konan and the others are in danger?"

"Their goals are far more than this. If you keep letting go, they will never grow up!" Jiraiya's tone became more serious.

Jiraiya knew very well that Haruko Hayama was soft-hearted but had a strong sense of responsibility, and so was Jiraiya himself, but if they did not have the power to fight against any danger, they would never be able to use their fists and feet, and would never achieve their grand goals.

Haruko broke free from his hand in the morning, but did not refute his words. She frowned and felt very conflicted.

Seeing her like this, Jiraiya sighed and said calmly: "Think about it again, the war in Konoha will soon be over."

"..."

In the morning, half of Haruko's face was in shadow, dark and unclear.
