Naruto's Endless Pretense

No one thought that the day of departure would come so soon, and no one thought that the day of departure would be windy and rainy.

Don’t break the flowers after the rain.Afraid of getting my hands wet and hurting my heart.

Flowers in the rain, Mo Yu.Or the leaves are broken and the love is lost.

When the sky clears up after the rain, the glow is brilliant, and even ordinary flowers and plants can be dyed with a charming light.

The flowers and plants don’t know it, but it’s the light, the wind, or the people that make them so beautiful.

Tsunade didn't come, but asked Shizune to come and say goodbye.

The rain floated lightly, just like the sadness in Sasuke's heart. Although it was not as heavy as the heavy rain, it was still continuous.But Sasuke still tried his best to look cheerful.

Because today, in addition to Sasuke and Kakashi heading south, there are also Temari and Maki heading west.

"It's actually raining. It's a pity that the cherry blossom trees in this area will not have such beautiful scenery after today."

Temari brushed away the five-petal cherry blossom that had been knocked off by the raindrops on her forehead, and took a deep breath, as if she wanted to absorb everything in this short book street into her mind.

"Watch the moon, listen to the piano, enjoy the cherry blossoms, and drink tea. Being able to get one of these is luck. We are lucky enough to watch the cherry blossoms for a month."

Sasuke also took a deep breath, but exhaled heavily, as if he wanted to forget all the experiences of the past two months.

"What's wrong? I've been keeping a straight face lately. It's not good to develop facial paralysis at such a young age."

Temari leaned gently on Sasuke's body from behind, and her 1.5-meter-seven height was just enough to place her head on Sasuke's shoulder.

"Mingming always said it with a smile at the beginning."

"Did I love to laugh a lot before?" Sasuke asked in surprise.

"I didn't know you before, but since I met you, you have been smiling almost all the time. A confident smile, a calculating smile, and a silly smile."

Speaking of this, Temari couldn't help but have a sweet smile on her lips, as if she was recalling every smile of Sasuke's.

But after hearing these words, Sasuke became completely cold.After traveling for such a long time, Sasuke originally felt that he had completely replaced himself and became Sasuke in the Naruto world.When someone calls Sasuke-kun, they think they are calling themselves. When someone says Sasuke is a genius, they think they are praising themselves.

But did he really become Sasuke?I won't hate everything Itachi did, I won't be so unwilling to hate myself because others surpass me, I won't risk everything for power.Not strong-willed enough, not cold-faced and warm-hearted, and not that cool.

I would also act like this in front of others, but it was all just pretending.

I am still the same as before.He knows how to call the third generation old man, he knows how to call his mother-in-law Tsunade, he wants to be cool, he knows how to date girls, he knows how to work hard for his goals, he knows how to stop because of laziness, and he also smiles silly.

So is the now different me Sasuke, or the original one? What is the name of that one?

"It's so sad. Have you forgotten yourself before you recognize yourself?"

Sasuke wanted to smile helplessly, but found that he couldn't laugh at all, and only tears flowed down on his own.I wanted to raise my hand to wipe away my tears, but I touched a pair of warm hands.

"Don't be too serious Sasuke."

"What do you mean? Is it true to want to know what is true for oneself?"

Temari forcefully turned Sasuke towards her, then held Sasuke's lowered head with both hands, making Sasuke's eyes look into hers.

"Whether it is you in the past or you now; the you in your own heart or the you in the eyes of others; the you who does whatever you want or the you who is controlled by the outside world, as long as you decide to live this way, that is you."

"Each of us is our own, and we don't just belong to ourselves. It feels like we will slowly deviate from our original self over time, but what does it matter? If no one reminds you, will you discover this? I discovered you Can’t you live? It’s not that you can’t find yourself, it’s that you have grown up in this society.”

After speaking, Temari knocked Sasuke on the head, straightened up and stretched.

"Really, you are still a kid who is not as tall as me. Why do you think so much?"

Sasuke touched the area on his head where he was hit. He felt a little moved, but he didn't know what to do, so he giggled unconsciously.

"Yes, that's you, the smiling Uchiha Sasuke, the unique Sasuke."

Indeed, this is me, as proud as Indra and as silly as Asura.

"Thank you, Temari, I feel better. Thank you for enlightening me so much."

Temari, who had always been straightforward and generous, squirmed when she heard Sasuke's thanks and looked slightly drunk.

"Well, I'm not specifically trying to enlighten you. It's just that if you always look gloomy, it will make people look upset. But if you insist on thanking you."

"Just come and watch the cherry blossoms with me next year."

Temari bent down and tapped Sasuke gently on the cheek, then quickly ran to Maggi who was waiting in the distance.

"It's getting late, let's go first."

Watching Maki and Temari gradually disappear, Sasuke smiled helplessly and sighed.

"Have you decided not to pursue me?"

Kakashi, who was originally hiding in the distance, suddenly appeared on Sasuke's right, and his sudden question scared Sasuke half to death.

"Kakashi, you're going to scare people to death."

"Sorry, sorry, it's just that you look funny."

Kakashi slapped Sasuke and calmed him down.

"Kakashi, what is the meaning of your life?"

Sasuke asked suddenly.

"Me? Protecting Konoha, guarding the will of fire, and living well with the will of my old friend is the meaning of my life. Why do you ask these things?"

"It's nothing, I just figured out some things and wanted to figure out other troublesome things at once."

Under Temari's guidance, Sasuke has clarified himself, but as Tsunade said, he has not yet found the meaning of his existence.

Sasuke is a time traveler, and now he has become a ninja not out of love for the ninja profession.

, nor is it a lofty goal or a desire for power.Everything is just because he traveled to a ninja and became a ninja.

As the fun of ninjutsu learning slowly turned into boring exercises, the ninja life became less and less attractive to Sasuke.And seeing the risks of the ninja profession in advance made Sasuke think that this was not his future.

His essence has not changed, he is still the occasionally hot-blooded and sometimes cold-blooded, but essentially peaceful A-Zhai. The touching feeling of ACGNM is what Sasuke longs for.

It's a pity that this is the world of Naruto, there is no jump, no new series; there is no station B or station P; there is no saber, there is no second lady; there is no Hayao Miyazaki, no Makoto Shinkai, not even the princess.

"Hey, Kakashi. I once heard someone say that even if you lose your life, you must protect the truly important things with both hands. Do you think that's right?"

"Ah, that's right."

Sasuke laughed, a genuine laugh.What is the sad wish for our generation to continue? "I have no regrets about joining animation in this life, and I hope to live in a two-dimensional life in the next life." This sentence runs through So-A-Zhai's heart.

Now that we have traveled to the Two-dimensional world, the ancestral graves are no longer smoking, but are breathing fire.Being able to personally participate in the operation of this world, what should I be confused about?To explore, to be moved, to share, isn’t that what A-Zhai has been doing?

After thinking everything through, Sasuke turned around and waved goodbye to Shizune, who was standing far away.

"Shizune, thank you! By the way, thank Granny Tsunade for me and tell her that I have found it."

"Kakashi! I have decided, I want to become Hokage."

Kakashi was a little surprised and a little relieved to see Sasuke, who seemed to be a different person in one day.

"Then it's time to work harder."

"But it's still such a pity!"

Sasuke put his hands behind his head and hurried away with a sigh, as if there was a fire at home and his father was dead.

Sasuke couldn't help but feel heartbroken. Although he had gained a lot after leaving the village for two months and met Temari, Sasuke couldn't help but think about the punishment for failing the chain dungeon mission.

Medical ninjutsu can no longer be used in the future.However, why haven’t the system prompts come yet?

"What, it's a pity that I didn't catch up?" Kakashi was still teasing Sasuke and Temari.

"It's not a pity, but it is indeed a pity."

Sasuke pouted.It seemed that after thinking everything through, Sasuke became much more open-minded and no longer hid anything from Kakashi.

"Originally, when I came out this time, I planned to master the White Fang Sword Technique and then become Tsunade's disciple. However, I went through the hell gate twice but didn't get a single one."

Kakashi listened to Sasuke's confession and stopped after thinking for a while.

"what happened?"

"Well, Tsunade-sama originally asked me to tell you after a while, but I feel like it's almost done."

Kakashi took out the chakra dagger from Sasuke's waist, which was the one that Jiraiya gave to Orochimaru.I saw Kakashi spin it slightly, and a scroll fell from the handle of the knife.

"This place was originally supposed to contain other small things. This is the scroll that Tsunade-sama left for you."

Sasuke slowly opened the scroll and saw a method of chakra operation written on it.Sasuke followed the step-by-step instructions and slowly injected chakra into it.Suddenly, a huge slug as tall as a man appeared. There was a huge scroll hanging from its neck on a rope.

"Ah, you are the Sasuke-kun that little Tsunade said, right?"

"Ah, that's me." Sasuke was also surprised by this development.

After hearing Sasuke's confirmation, Slug handed the scroll to Sasuke.

"Little Tsunade said, if you sign the psychic scroll in our Shiggou Forest, you will be her disciple."

Sure enough, after Sasuke bit his finger and signed, the system prompts came to mind.

"Ding! Complete all the tasks in the chain dungeon. Rewards: Yin Escape Level +1, Achievement Points +10000, Double the amount of chakra, gain spatial attributes, and unlock the title: Disciple of the Medical Saint."

"Disciple of the Medical Saint: When using medical ninjutsu, chakra consumption is reduced by 20% and the treatment effect is increased by 20%. Please ask the host if it is equipped."

"equipment!"

Sasuke felt happy. What he thought was a loss of money suddenly turned into a wave of gain. The surprise came too suddenly.

After sending the slug away, Sasuke looked left and right and then turned his attention to Kakashi.

"What?" Kakashi ducked back, looking wary.

"Tsunade-sama has accepted me as her disciple. Do you see that White Fang sword technique?"

"What's the relationship between this!"

Kakashi seemed to have taken a bad example from Temari and Shizune, and he also punched Sasuke in the head.

"But it's not impossible. I will go around more places on the way back. Whether you can learn it or not depends on your understanding."

"really?"

Sasuke looked at Kakashi in surprise. He was just joking half-heartedly, but he didn't expect Kakashi to actually agree.

"Why lie to you?"

"But when you came here, didn't you say that your skills were already rusty?"

"It's more than enough to teach you a newbie if you're unfamiliar with the skills."

"Isn't it true that anyone can learn the Hatake family's sword skills?"

"How come there is so much nonsense and you still don't want to learn?"

Short Book Street.

After Shizune sent Kakashi and others away, she returned to the hotel where she lived, hoping to find Tsunade to convey Sasuke's gratitude.

But after pushing open the door of Tsunade's room, she found that Tsunade was already drunk and sleeping deeply on the bed.

"Hey, what is this?"

Shizune found a very wrinkled photo beside Tsunade's pillow. She quietly opened it and found that it was an old and yellowed photo.

The photo showed two young ninjas from Konoha.A boy with white hair and red eyeliner was smiling proudly, while a boy with black hair and snake eyes next to him looked at the white-haired boy helplessly.
