New Naruto Sakura no Flower Fan Travel Notes

--------

Sasuke turned his head and took a closer look at this hidden cave located halfway up the mountain. He felt that apart from being thick with fog, this cave was more...indescribably weird.

Caves belong to the category of physical geography. Recalling the physical geography class at Ninja School when he was a student, he paid special attention to learning this aspect of knowledge.In fact, Sasuke has never paid much attention to this kind of sub-classes, because he is more concerned about the three main classes of taijutsu, ninjutsu, and genjutsu.But as a ninja, you often have to survive in the wild, so a certain knowledge of geography is still necessary.

The so-called caves generally refer to tunnels that are naturally formed or artificially mined and opened up [1].Under normal circumstances, the naturally formed caves are relatively small, irregular, and basically "open", that is, there are exits at both ends.But Zuo Liangna's cave is very spacious and well-organized, as tall as two people, and the miniature "living room" is the end of the cave.

Sasuke slowly approached the rock wall, groping the gray rock wall with his slender fingers.The wavy lines on the rocks can be vaguely seen, and the lines seem to protrude upwards.

"Is this 'Anticline'..." Sasuke said softly, and he gradually recalled the knowledge taught by Mr. Iruka in the ninja school.

----

"...Under the strong compression of the crustal movement, the rock formation will undergo plastic deformation, producing a series of wavy bends called 'folds'. Folds are divided into 'synclines' and 'antlines'. Anticlines are generally in shape The upward protruding bend, the rock stratum is inclined outward from the center, the core is the old rock stratum, and the two wings are new rock strata; the syncline is the opposite. However, the syncline is squeezed by the trough, and the material is solid and not easy to be eroded. Mountains may be formed after the surrounding protrusions are eroded; anticlines may be easily eroded due to rock stretching and form valleys...[2]”

"Mr. Iruka!" Naruto waved his hands and interrupted impatiently: "We are ninjas, why are you talking about these useless things?! Why don't you teach us some powerful ninjutsu!"

"Hmm... what is... 'Syncline Anticline'? Can... eat it?" Ding Ci chomped on the barbecue-flavored potato chips, and said vaguely in his mouth.

"Oh, it's so boring... isn't it, Akamaru?" Akamaru, who was lying on the head of the lazy Inuzuka tooth, let out a weak "Woof" in a timely manner.

"Oh... so troublesome..." Shikamaru narrowed his eyes and yawned.

Ever since, the "Skipping Class Four" daily ignored Unno Iruka Sensai whose "anger value" was gradually bursting.The four of them jumped out of the window one by one happily and vigorously.

"Hey!!! You four bastards will be damned sooner or later!!!" Iruka jumped and roared loudly.

----

It is natural for anticlines to form mountains, but the geographical location of the country of Kawa is intriguing.As far as the ninja world map that can be drawn at the current level of human cognition, this continent that accommodates the entire ninja world countries is basically in the temperate zone, and only a large part of the country of wind is located in the tropics.

On this continent, Kawano-kuni in the southwest uses its complex mountains to block the water vapor brought by the monsoon from the waters of the sea in the east. The country has formed a typical tropical desert climate.Kawa no Kuni itself will be relatively humid due to the ocean water vapor brought by the "northeast trade wind[3]".

But this cave is located at a higher altitude and will not be eroded by running water.Even if the anticline of the mountain itself is good for excavating tunnels, such a perfect anticline cave will not be easily formed according to the ever-changing external force, and this cave has obvious traces of artificial excavation.

Who built this neat and secret cave?Does Baijue buried deep in this mountain block the erosion of natural forces from outside the mountain?

……

Things seemed to be getting more and more complicated. Sasuke couldn't help but look at Sakura who was still in a daze beside him, and said softly, "Sakura..."

"Hmm..." Sakura slowly turned her head to look at Sasuke beside her with a dignified face.

"What are you going to do next?" Sasuke asked, with some hesitation in his tone.

"I... I don't know either." Sakura is indeed a little bit "confused" now, it seems that Zuo Liangna is... "dead" right now?

Zuo Liangna wrote very clearly in her "suicide note" that her "last wish" was to return the puppet to Xie, but...but Xie was already dead!It was a good idea to give the puppet to her grandfather——Grandpa Hai Laozang, and it can be considered as a "thought".But Zuo Liangna didn't want Sakura to reveal her identity, after all, the "dead" was the big one.But... this seems a bit inconsistent, right?Confused, Sakura began to hesitate whether to tell Sasuke the whole truth.

……

"Sakura, who is that 'brother'?" Sasuke had already seen some clues from this letter.He also has brothers, and the younger ones usually call the older ones "brother" or "sister", but the older ones rarely call them "brother" or "sister" directly.

At least in the past, he always referred to Itachi as "brother", and Itachi called him by his first name.The second Hokage Senju Tomonama also called the first Hokage Senju Hashimama "big brother", and Hashirama called him by his first name; while the fifth generation Kazekage three siblings basically called each other by their first names.But this Zuo Liangna...does she not want others to know her brother?Or was she worried that someone other than Sakura would see the letter?

Hmph, someone other than Sakura?Is it to "defend" him?

……

Sakura was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then bowed her head in silence.

Seeing this, Sasuke didn't press her any more, and he observed the cave by himself.Its location is hidden and precipitous, and there is a corridor connecting it with the cave under the "Xiao" stronghold.According to Sakura, the style of the tunnel looks like Orochimaru's stronghold, more like Samsara Eye.

He walked over to the box and took a look. It was obviously an old model from before.At this time, the faint light source deep in the cave is the white candle.It stood on a simple candlestick and was placed on the ground close to the box, burning weakly. Next to it was neatly placed another sweet red bean soup that Sarana left for Sakura.

He stepped forward to open the box, and there were only some white or black clothes, quilts, and the paper and pen just now... There seemed to be a faint plum fragrance.In addition, there are some white candles and the puppet mentioned in the letter.

He took out the puppet and fiddled with it casually, only to find that it was actually a puppet! "Puppet art" was jointly invented by the second generation of Kazekage Monza Shamon and the originator of the puppet master Monzaemon of Sand Hidden, and the Shamen was good at studying the one-tailed crane, inherited the ideas of the previous generation, and developed the "Magnetic Escape" Art", which has had a profound impact on later generations.And Monzaemon was already at the pinnacle of puppetry, and even created the "Kimatsu Ten People"...

Surprised, Sasuke subconsciously glanced at the burning white candle on the ground. He always felt that the white candle made him a little "discomfortable".

……

It seems that this matter has something to do with Sand Yin, Sasuke thought in his heart.He walked to the bedside and prepared to check further, but a burst of emotional female voice suddenly sounded: "Sasuke-kun!!!"

I don't know how many decibels it increased, and the frightened Sasuke accidentally dropped the puppet in his hand.Sakura immediately went forward to catch it, and said with a displeased face: "Everyone is 'disappeared'? What else do you want to do?!"

"Hmph, do you really believe it?" Sasuke said coldly.Regardless of her anger, he lifted the sheet and moved the cot away, and sure enough - he saw the hole!What a meticulous arrangement... Sasuke then took out a white candle from the box and lit it, then jumped into the corridor.

"Hey——Sasuke-kun?!" Before Sakura could react, Sasuke disappeared? !Damn... why is she losing her temper? !In fact, there is nothing wrong with Sasuke-kun doing this... Then why are you so angry at yourself? !Oops... Did he think she was annoying and wanted to get rid of her? !No no no, absolutely not! ! !

Sakura's brain became hot, and she immediately put the puppet, which symbolized an important request, into her backpack.When she was about to jump in, she found that there was a small piece of paper on the ground!

She quickly picked up the piece of paper and found that it seemed to have been burned.But because of its better texture, it didn't completely turn black.Wait...is this feel a photo?And it's still a torn photo!Generally, the front side of a photo is relatively smooth, while the back side is relatively rough.So Sakura stroked it lightly, and she tentatively deduced that this should be the lower left corner of a complete photo.

When the "Seventh Squad" performed the first "Death" mission in the country of waves, she also saw a situation like this.The black-haired boy named "Inari", because he missed his stepfather so much, tore off his stepfather's photo and put it in a frame alone... How sad and desperate is it to do this?

As for this "photo", it seems that it has been rubbed countless times, and it should be a very early type of photo, and now I can't see the person on it clearly...

Suddenly, Sakura remembered that Sasuke had been in for a long time but there was no movement!

"Sasuke-kun!" Sakura hurriedly shouted towards the entrance of the cave as if she had just woken up from a dream.

"Oops!!!" She put the photo in her pocket and jumped in hastily.When she just jumped down, she realized that she had forgotten to light a candle in her desperation, so she took out the flashlight in a hurry, but the damn thing was out of power at this time! ! !Besides, I don't know how to escape from fire. (Actually, using fire escape here is undoubtedly the best way to go!) But Sasuke-kun just went down and brought a fire source, why is the corridor still dark? !She panicked and couldn't help but worry...

"Sasuke-kun, you are here—" Sakura stepped forward and took a few small steps, but she tripped before she finished speaking.Just when she thought she would fall heavily to the ground, she found that her body was limp...as if someone was there!

"Ah!!!" Sakura yelled out in shock, it was pitch black, she couldn't see anything.So she stretched out her hand tremblingly to caress the "meat pad" just now, the slightly long hair... Is it Zuo Liangna? !Did she not die and hid in the tunnel like a "prank"?Oh, that's not right - Zorana's hair is longer, a high nose bridge, a strong chest... and... a crippled left arm? !

Emma, ​​this is Sasuke-kun!

Sakura, who was secretly thankful, didn't even care about being shy, she immediately picked up Sasuke, and finally found the upper hole with bumps and bumps by feeling.She condensed chakra on the soles of her feet and jumped up suddenly... It can be regarded as returning to Zuo Liangna's dark room!I saw that the white candle that she randomly lit on the candlestick on the ground had almost burned out. This kind of dim light made the entire depth of the cave extremely dark and terrifying...

Sasuke-kun seems to be in a coma!At this time, Sakura was very proud that her "shocking power" could save him at a critical moment, but she also blamed herself for causing trouble to Sasuke-kun because of her impulsive actions... She hurriedly carried Sasuke to Sasuke. Anna's bed.But how can such a small bed bear a 1.8-meter man like Sasuke-kun?So Sakura had no choice but to take out a set of quilts from Sarana's box and spread them on the floor for Sasuke to lie on.

Since the candles she lit just now were almost burnt out, Sakura hastily lit several white candles to increase the light source, and the whole cave was finally brighter for a while.She also discovered another sweet red bean soup that Zuo Liangna left her. Suddenly, Sakura felt a sense of warmth mixed with sadness...

How can she have any appetite now?Regardless of whether Zuo Liangna is "dead or not", this small detail can also reflect the character of this woman, she is really gentle and considerate... I don't know how such a beautiful girl lives?If it was true, as the "suicide note" said, Zuo Liangna had been hiding in this dark and strange cave for decades without seeing the sun, alone, and alone... Then her life would be too miserable, right?

It was so dark and lonely here, wouldn't she be afraid as a girl?And the scorpion who seems to have a "very close" relationship with her, what kind of story will there be between a man like "the scorpion of red sand" with a sinister nature and her gentle and kind sister?Have the two of them been in secret contact?And the place where Xie died was not far from here!There are also her dark circles under the eyes that resemble Gaara, the sudden white hair on her young face, her avoidance and indifference to her loved ones, and her almost exhausted and limp body in the end, without any power to recover. sign……

What did she go through?Who is she?

From Sakura's point of view, Sarana has too many secrets.In fact, she herself has a mysterious aura that makes people think about it, makes people dare not profane, and is full of nobility and elegance.But Ying always felt that every secret behind Zuo Liangna seemed to be hidden, dusty, and covered up one sad and beautiful story after another...

But now for Sakura herself, the most "sad and stubborn" thing is that Sasuke-kun was dragged down by her again at this time and accidentally fainted! ! !Why does she, a useless piece of trash, always cause trouble for others? !I am really unbearable, what kind of excellent jnin?What elite medical ninja?What about Konoha's "New Sannin"?

Heh, it seems that Haruno Sakura's glorious achievements so far are just an illusion of complacency. She still hasn't been able to catch up with the stalwart backs of Sasuke-kun and Naruto until now.

……

"Sasuke-kun, don't scare me, wake up..." Thinking about it, Sakura's emerald green eyes mist up because of her embarrassment and panic.At this moment, she only feels sore, helpless, and vague... No, she can't cry anymore!Now there is wool for crying nose? !Haruno Sakura finally remembered that she was still a medical ninja who "could stand on the stage", so she hurriedly wiped away her tears.Force myself to calm down and examine Sasuke-kun's body carefully, treating him as an ordinary patient that I treat equally every day.

Sakura checked for a long time and found that Sasuke-kun had no trauma.In this case, it is very likely to be an illusion!As long as you find out the reason, it will be easy to deal with.

"Solution—" Haruno Sakura, who is a "student master", is quite confident about illusion.She skillfully used Chakra to try to dispel the "illusion", and was looking forward to Sasuke-kun's awakening... But after a while, he was still asleep.

"Damn it!" Sakura, who was a little discouraged, began to wonder if her "scholar" persona was about to collapse?Except for Sasuke-kun's..."excessive" illusion, there has never been an illusion that she can't solve.Not reconciled, she tried to solve this "unscientific problem" again, but failed again.

Gradually, Sakura, who was angry, felt a familiar drowsiness again.She rubbed her temples vigorously, and found that the dimly glowing white candles around her began to overlap and dazzle her eyes. She was really sleepy... Not long after, Sakura also slowly fell on Sasuke's body.

--------

Uchiha Sasuke felt that he should be dreaming, is this... Broken Bridge?But how could the current self be standing here two years ago? !

……

"Sasuke-kun!" That's... Sakura from two years ago?

"Sakura?" Isn't that me two years ago? !

"I regret that I didn't leave Konoha with you..." The pink-haired woman frowned and said firmly, "Please take me away!"

"Are you really willing to betray Konoha for me?" At that time, the ferocious self showed an imperceptible indifferent smile.

"I am willing!" She said immediately, but her face was a little bit unbearable.

"Oh?" The self at that time asked faintly: "Then do you know what I want to do now?"

"As long as..." She was taken aback for a moment, then lowered her head slightly, and said slowly in a low voice: "As long as it is Sasuke-kun, you can..."

"Destroy Konoha!!!" he yelled cruelly.

"If..." She opened her beautiful eyes suddenly, unable to hide her obvious shock and heartache, but she continued to speak calmly: "Sasuke-kun really thinks so, I can..."

He glanced coldly at the dying red-haired woman on the ground, pointed at her casually, and ordered in a tone: "Then kill her yourself, and prove it to me!"

Seeing that the pink-haired woman was still hesitating to strike after she agreed with difficulty, he actually quietly stood behind her trembling, and a faint "satisfaction" shot out from his already blurred eyes. cold light.He unleashes Chidori on his left hand, forcing the second person to appear by "stabbing" her.

……

"No—" the current Sasuke couldn't help shouting when he saw this, even though he didn't really want to kill her at that time... But the scene suddenly switched to Sakura standing behind him two years ago .Seeing that at that time, her eyes were suffering from severe pain, she took advantage of the opportunity and held Kunai.Even though she was clearly close at hand and easy to do, she still burst into tears.

"Sakura..." So he misunderstood it?Could this woman still be unable to kill herself in such a life-and-death situation?Probably... he was wrong, right?

But the self in the picture immediately turned around. At that time, he was a little sullen and grabbed Sakura's neck with his right hand, and held Kunai horizontally with his left hand, preparing to attack coldly...

"No—" Sasuke almost let go of his voice and shouted this time.
