"So... so comfortable."

Looking at Asuma who was unable to move, Hidan also withdrew from the ceremony, his skin returned to normal, and he pulled the sickle out of his body.

"I've done it."

"I'm almost done here." Kakuzu's hands became stronger and stronger, and Gang Zitie felt that his neck was about to be broken.

"Asshole..." Shikamaru roared, having lost all his reason.

He strode towards Kakuzu.

But at this moment, he was already at the end of his strength. Kakuzu only moved slightly, and threw Gang Zitie's body out and hit Shikamaru.

Shikamaru fell to the ground and didn't even have the strength to get up.

"Damn... why am I so useless..."

At this moment, crow feathers fell from the sky.

Yamashiro Aoba's body stood on the high platform, using many crows to block Kakuzu and Hidan's sight.

"Is it a trick?"

Suddenly, a special jonin appeared in front of Kakuzu and stabbed at his face with a knife.

Kakuzu quickly let go and dodged the attack.

At this moment, Shikamaru realized that support had arrived.

......

In the flower domain space.

Hanako walked on the Higanbana field, her expression was still so calm.

"Xiao Hanako, why didn't you just kill Asuma?" At this moment, Xiao Shinobu, who was standing beside her and walking with her, asked.

"You should understand why I didn't kill him."

"Is it because of the relationship with Shikamaru in the past?"

"Almost, most of the reason is that if I kill him, Brother Feidan will be angry with me."

"I see, but your vision should also be affected."

"Well, the schedule for fighting with Uchiha Itachi that bastard has to be put forward."

"Why don't you transplant the Eternal Mangekyō before killing him." Xiao Shinobu asked softly.

"I just want to see Uchiha Itachi's death with my own eyes."

"I understand. If you want to transplant, come back to the Flower Domain Space and I will transplant it for you."

"Well, thank you, Shinobu."

"Why should you thank me?" Shinobu smiled.

"Yes, but I still have to thank you."

As they spoke, Hana and Shinobu walked to a place, the most sacred flower field, which was full of vitality. In this flower field, it seemed as if time had stopped.

Two crystal coffins contained two cold corpses, and around these crystal coffins were colorful flowers.

These were the corpses of Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Mikoto. On the night of the genocide, Hana personally transferred her parents to the Flower Domain Space.

Only here can she feel at ease, and only here can she bury her parents.

"Dad... Mom... I am an unfilial daughter... At that time, I could do nothing."

"But it's different now..."

Shinobu looked at the two bodies, thinking, as if she also had some pain echoing in her heart.

"Shinobu, I'm going back to save money."

"Well, go ahead. Every night before going to bed, remember to go to your inner world to consolidate your ninjutsu."

"I know."

......

The Hidden Rain Village.

Konan looked down at the entire village with a slight smile. The peaceful scene in the village proved that Nagato's ideal was about to be realized.

Behind her, a rose vortex emerged. She knew without thinking that it was Kanon who was back.

"Kaname, you're back."

"Sister Konan, you're looking at the village again, right?"

"Yeah, where are Kakuzu and the others?"

"Not back yet, I'm back first."

Kanaon lifted up the 3000W iron box.

"What is this?"

"30 million! And the gains from the past few days, I will save them all later."

"Of course, we have to allocate funds to the Sound Village."

Kane was thinking, and Pein came up.

"Deidara and Afei are back, and the sealing ceremony of the three-tailed beast will begin immediately. Gather everyone back."

"Brother!" Kanon waved at Pein.

"You're back, little Kanon."

"Well, look, what is this!" Kanon lifted up the money box like a lively girl.

"What is this?" Pein was puzzled. After Konan told Pein the whole story, Pein also chuckled.

"Well done, Kanon-chan, but we have more important things to do now. Go save the money first. We need to contact other people."

"Okay! I'm leaving then!"

Looking at Kanon going to the Akatsuki's vault, Konan chuckled: "It's good to be young."

"Yeah... Konan, when you were this old, you weren't as energetic as her.""The most energetic one among us is Yahiko."

"Yeah."

Pain sat down and sent a message to all the people in Akatsuki.

"Seal the Three-Tails and set off immediately. There is no time to lose."

"What a worrying group of guys."

......

The sky was covered by heavy dark clouds, as if covered by a huge black curtain.

The street lights cast a dim halo, which contrasted sharply with the darkness around. In the distance, thunder was faint, foreshadowing a storm coming.

Asuma, who was dying, told the three students around him that he had a final request to tell them.

He told Choji and Ino to take good care of themselves and become better ninjas.

Ino must not lose to Sakura, whether in ninjutsu or love.

He also asked Choji to lose some weight appropriately. The plain and ordinary request expressed Asuma's last good wishes for the two disciples.

Then Asuma also told Shikamaru "the meaning of jade."

"Asuma, so you..."

"Leave it to you, Shikamaru..."

"It should be OK now. The cigarettes I want to quit are in my pocket."

"Let me smoke one more..."

Shikamaru took out a cigarette for Asuma with trembling hands and put it to his lips.

Asuma's lighter was ignited by Shikamaru, and in this flame, it seemed that countless memories belonging to Team 10 were pouring out.

Shikamaru's tears burst out, and Ino and Choji beside him burst into tears.

Finally, Shikamaru lit this last cigarette for Asuma.

Memories came again. It was the scene of the first meeting with the three members of Team 10 in his memory. Asuma choked the three people with tears just after smoking.

And just like that time, the three disciples in front of him all had tears in their eyes and sobbed unwillingly.

Not long ago, all three people who successfully became Chunin officially graduated from Asuma.

As a graduation gift, Asuma gave each of the three a pair of earrings.

While congratulating them on their graduation, he also asked the three people in the 10th team not to forget this bond.

Finally, Asuma ran out of strength, and the last picture in his mind was the children of the 10th team and the figure of Kurenai Yuhi. He had tears in his eyes, and the unfinished cigarette at the corner of his mouth did not come out with the cessation of breathing.

The half-burned cigarette butt took away the teacher of the 10th team, the child of the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, but it could not take away the will to protect the "jade" and the belief of the 10th team.

The raindrops began to fall silently, small and cold, and they hit the ground, making a tiny sound. The rain gradually became heavier and turned into a downpour, as if the gates of the sky were opened, and countless silver water drops poured down crazily.

The rain hit the ground, making dense gurgling sounds, like a tuneless sad song, playing the ruthlessness and indifference of nature.

The Tenth Team and the rest of the jonin lowered their heads. The bodies of Kamatsuki Izumo and Asuma were put together, which made the cruelty of this battle more obvious.

The wind also joined the rain, whistling through the streets and alleys, rolling up the garbage and fallen leaves on the ground and making them roll in the air.

The trees swayed in the wind, and the branches whipped the air like whips, as if protesting the raging of the storm.

The rain washed everything, making the world blurry, like a painting without color.

This rain was not just the falling of water, but more like the crying of the sky. It was mourning something, perhaps the two who had passed away, or perhaps the loneliness and despair in this world.

Seeing Asuma lose his life, Shikamaru stood up and lit a cigarette like Asuma, but he couldn't open his eyes at all.

Sad tears, tears choked by cigarettes and falling rain all intertwined together, the raindrops gradually grew larger, and Shikamaru's cigarette butt was ruthlessly extinguished.

The mission to hunt down [Akatsuki] failed, Sarutobi Asuma and Kamatsuki Izumo unfortunately died in battle, one died at the hands of Hidan, and the other died at the hands of Uchiha Kanon.

Shikamaru trembled, feeling everything around him, the sound of rain and wind intertwined, forming a gloomy elegy, adding a bit of sadness and heaviness to this moment.
