[Hokage] A rose in mourning for the summer moon

"Danzo committed suicide."

"Well, decent."

"He never told the truth about Uchiha being exterminated."

"His vision of the big picture has always been good."

"The third generation wants to retire, and wants Tsunade to come back to succeed him."

"One of the famous 'Konoha Sannin', the granddaughter of the first generation of Hokage, the successor of Hokage is also well-deserved."

Jiyou sighed, "Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

"Xiayue, do you know what you have done? The Jutsu of Reincarnation... Do you really think that no one understands this taboo technique? The reason why it is banned is because performing this ninjutsu requires the sacrifice of a living person's life. You actually used this trick in front of everyone."

In the past two years, it was rare to hear Kakashi's serious tone again.Since retiring from Anbe, he has lived the retirement life of the elderly ahead of schedule, reading pornography/books, taking care of students, and doing ordinary tasks. Sliding into the abyss of salted fish day by day.As a result, a Chunin exam allowed him to regain some of his former vigor.Now he is helping Hokage with housework, and he has to be distracted to worry about me.He's such a good friend.

"Please don't worry, Kakashi-senpai. I didn't kill anyone in front of everyone. The sacrifices were the death row prisoners held by the torture team, and the operation process was also completed in the coffin. What appeared in the world was" It's just Liuhua."

"..."

Looking at Kakashi's eyes, he might think I'm a bit scary.But some things just can't be helped.I tried my best.

"Kakashi-senpai, please return the book. I'm seeing something wonderful." I want to return my book.

"Xia Yue, is it worth it?"

"Of course. As a senior cadre, if you find out that the village's high-level officials are colluding with foreign enemies with the intention of murdering Hokage and overthrowing the regime, you should stand up and defend your home and country..."

Kakashi rubbed his silver hair and continued to sigh.He sighed more times during this period than in the past four years combined.

"Exploding Danzo in public has brought you a lot of trouble. The third generation no longer believes in you, let alone the other elders... After Danzo committed suicide, they even began to suspect that you framed their superiors."

"Xiaochun and Menyan's brains have always been not very good. As long as there are sensible people in the village." I finally got my book back, turned back to the previous page and continued reading, "If it weren't for me, most of you would be I can only cry and bid farewell to the body of the third generation."

"...Sure enough, this is your nature. Although it is a bit annoying, it is still more pleasing to the eye than the smooth bureaucrat before." Kakashi breathed out in compromise, and sat down on the side, "Next, what are you going to do? what to do?"

"After working hard for several years, let's rest for a while."

"Where is Sasuke?" Kakashi said bluntly, "The way you looked before scared him. How are you going to explain to him the Sharingan on Danzo's arm?"

"Is that what the official conclusion is? Uchiha was exterminated by traitors, and Danzo ordered his subordinates to steal the sharingan of the tribe to strengthen his own strength. It is reasonable and there is nothing wrong with it."

"Just for this reason, why did you try so hard to kill Danzo? Xia Yue, Sasuke has grown up, don't treat him like a child who doesn't know anything."

"What kind of 'exhaustive effort' is that..."

Kakashi was right.I know he's right.But I can't explain it to Sasuke right now.

My silence was met with another sigh from Kakashi.It is said that every time a person sighs, a hair will turn gray. Kakashi must have infinite sorrow in his heart, and his hair is white at a young age.

"Anyway, you can worry about it yourself." He pushed the question back to me irresponsibly, "Speaking of which, how are your eyes?"

"Eyes? It's okay. I'm fine, thank you for your concern."

Kakashi snatched my book again.The "copy ninja" who is famous in the ninja world wasted his hand speed on grabbing my book, which is really a waste of resources and embarrassing.

"Since you say that, let's talk about what you just saw."

"Senior Kakashi can't see it for himself."

The white-haired ninja seemed to squint his eyes.

"Your eyes can't see clearly, Xia Yue." He said in a deep voice, "Kaleidoscopic Sharingan will gradually become blind if you use it too much. You have used it too much in the past few years. Don't force yourself too much."

I smiled, "Senior Kakashi seems to know more news. Sure enough, does the third generation intend to let you take over as Hokage? Maybe the next one? At that time, the qualifications and age are about the same."

"Don't try to use tricks to avoid the problem. It's true...it really looks like that person." He said the last half of the sentence very softly, but I still heard it.

"Senior Kakashi, have you heard the story of Yata Yata Yata Yata Yata? The three-legged crow monster, the messenger between life and death, is not only the ferryman of the dead, but also a symbol of revenge." I recalled the stories I had read, "But in more distant countries, the three-legged crow is considered the son of the sun. It flies against the sun in the morning, lands on Fusang in the evening, and takes off again the next day; this is the origin of day and night. That's why Fusang is also called the tree of sunrise. .There, the three-legged crow is the embodiment of light and resurrection."

"It's clearly the same kind of totem, but it's endowed with diametrically opposite meanings. One dies and one dies, one dark and one bright, but what does the real three-legged crow look like? Maybe only he himself knows."

"Xia Yue, what do you want to say?"

Kakashi was confused.He knew more than before, but not enough.Some archives contain top-secret information, but the real "top-secret" is never recorded on paper, but deeply stored in the minds of some people.If those people are all dead, no one can tell what the truth should be like.I do not like that.

Why kill Danzo?I don't like the fact that he's the type to be alive.

Why save the third generation?I don't like good people dying.

Why do more?I don't like certain endings that are predetermined.That's not how it should be.

I smiled at Kakashi and offered him the book.

"It's nothing, didn't senior Kakashi ask me what I was reading? What I just said is what is recorded in the book."

He froze for a moment, turned the book half-doubtingly, his right eye showed a sudden look.

"It really... scared me." He relaxed a little, "However, Xia Yue, you still have to be more careful in the future. Sasuke is very dependent on you."

"I understand, thank you Senior Kakashi. By the way, I lost my job because of this accident, so can I get a bonus for my contribution?"

"You still have the mind to worry about the bonus."

"I'm used to being poor, please forgive me."

After a few jokes, Kakashi answered the call of work and left my apartment.It was hot in midsummer and the sun was strong. I leaned against the window and looked at the peaceful scene of the street for a while, and then stared at the four Hokages on the rock wall for a while.

Eyes are a little tired.

I closed the window, took off my contact lenses, and looked at the suddenly blurred world, feeling a little nerve-wracking.

Is it so early... not yet.I still need these eyes.

Hold on a little longer.

Kakashi was right: Sasuke was indeed intimidated by me.

The big man in the village took off the bandages, and his arms were covered with eyeballs of his own clansmen, all of them were blood-red with their eyes open.How disgusting was that scene? If it was another intensive phobia, I might faint on the spot.Sasuke was able to support the whole process, and he was already very strong.

Even so, his face was also pale for a long time.

Afterwards, he came to me to ask why.I tried my best to explain things in a reasonable way. The general strategy is to emphasize chance as much as possible—it was accidental to discover the conspiracy of Orochimaru and Sand Shinobu, and it was also accidental to know Danzo's dirty little secret from the mouth of the dead through the technique of reincarnation. ; understate the inevitability - it is inevitable not to forget about the changes in the family, not to let go of any clues, and it is also inevitable to resent Danzo's actions and expose him in public in a moment of anger.

This set of statements is not a lie, it is nothing more than concealing more information.Sasuke pondered for several days, although he was still a little tangled, but he was slowly relieved.After all, in his eyes, Danzo just coveted the corpses of his clansmen, and the culprit was someone else.

I secretly looked for Naruto again, hoping that he could take Sasuke to participate in more group activities, so as to ease my depressed mood.According to Naruto's character, of course he slapped his chest loudly, and comforted me by saying don't be too sad, the bad guys have been punished as they should.

This is natural.The partners of justice will win in the end, and those who are defeated will be named evil.

I also visited the third generation.For this old man, my feelings are actually more complicated.On the one hand, I believe that he is a good man with a sense of justice, responsibility and dedication, but on the other hand, I can't forget that there was also his acquiescence in the changes that year.

I can only be sure of one thing: the third Hokage should not die in the internal struggle.not worth it.

He probably has mixed feelings about me.In a way, I took advantage of his trust in me, which led to Danzo's suicide.Although Danzo's methods were cruel and he planned to murder his life, but after all, he was unsuccessful. When the third generation thought of him, he felt more regret and sympathy, and it was easy to miss the friendship of his former companions.

Now that things have come to this, he should also understand what I have done in the past few years.When I went to see him, he looked at me silently for a long time, and finally heaved a long sigh and asked me how much I knew about the events of that year.

I said, I should know as much as all insiders.Uchiha's demise is inevitable, but those old and weak women and children are so innocent.Even during the Warring States Period, the Nine Clans of Humans were rarely exterminated.The methods are too cruel, not to mention forcing blood relatives to kill each other, and forcing people to do the most dangerous and dirtiest work in the world.

"If one day, that organization is wiped out, and that person is still alive, can he come back?" I asked the third Hokage for a promise, "Cancel the order to kill him, and stop calling him 'betrayal ninja'." ’, don’t ask to record his credit, let him be an upright Konoha ninja, okay?”

The third generation was silent for a long time again, and asked me, what should I say about the Uchiha being exterminated.

"It is said that in order to win the trust there, he voluntarily gave his life."

The old man looked at me, almost a little shocked, saying that no one would believe such a ridiculous thing, it was the life of a whole family, and it was a famous family that had been passed down for thousands of years.

"History is a little girl who can be dressed up by others. Whoever has the power can count what he says. As long as there is a saying, it doesn't matter if other people believe it or not."

I bowed to Sandaime and smiled.

"If you still sympathize with what happened to us, if you are willing to say a few more words for us, then I will kill that organization even if I risk my life. Please."

The third generation agreed.He is a good man and I believe in his word.

I heard that after I left, Sandaimu stayed up all night, and the next day his hair was all white, and he completely lost the energy he used to have before, and he became an old man completely.

This is also good, from now on I will plant flowers and grass at home, raise birds and watch fish, maybe watch my son get married and live a happy life with grandchildren; this is the ending of life that is very suitable for a good person.

I know that my talent is not high, my perseverance is limited, and I am far from a real genius.But I also made a wish to go step by step to the end I like.

I "want to insist", but also "want to have both".

Now, I have accomplished a goal.I proved that I can do it.

Even if no one is willing to help me, even if no one will trust me and support me unconditionally, I can do it with my own efforts.

I have this confidence.That's how I've survived all along.

"Xia Yue, if we don't leave, we will be late."

Sasuke waited impatiently at the entrance.He has grown a bit taller than last year, so I took him and bought a few new sets of clothes, and asked someone to embroider him with a small flame circle fan family crest.The little boy stood there, pretending to be cool even though he was awkward, like a young poplar full of life.

"Come on. Sasuke, have you brought a present for Naruto?"

"I brought it with me. If I forget, the tail of the crane will definitely laugh at me."

"Why did Naruto laugh at you when you didn't bring a gift? Shouldn't it be sad?"

"Probably they will say something like memory decline, strength decline... Tch."

"Sasuke, you really know Naruto very well, you two have such a good relationship."

"Who has a good relationship with that crane tail!"

I smiled and patted his head.

"Sasuke, who are going to Naruto's birthday party today?"

"In addition to Natsuki and me, there are also Kakashi-sensei, Sakura. I heard that Neji and Li Luoke's team will also go. Neji's sister's team also promised to go. There is also Shikamaru's team."

"It's so lively. By the way, Shikamaru is the only one who successfully promoted to Chunin this time, right?"

"...Next time! I will never lose!"

"Yes, this time was an accident. Who is Neji's younger sister... Hinata Hinata? That little girl seems to have a crush on Naruto."

"Who knows. Not interested."

"What about Sakura? Sakura likes Sasuke, do you like her?"

"I told you I'm not interested in this kind of thing. Xia Yue, you're so rambunctious, did you enter menopause early?"

I kept smiling, and unceremoniously slapped the little boy on the back of the head.Second-year boys have to be beaten up, and they all listen to me.

"Xia Yue."

"Ok?"

"That guy Naruto..."

There was a gloomy look on the boy's expression.

"That guy's strength...has improved so fast." He said in a complicated tone, "It's almost catching up with me."

"How can I become stronger faster?"

"I really... really need strength."
