When the white-haired man stepped into the Ichiraku ramen restaurant, a white-haired young man who was feasting gently raised his head. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Seeing the one-armed man coming in, his eyes were slightly solemn.

The blonde boy who was with him couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he saw his expression, and looked at him, and couldn't help but be slightly surprised in his heart.

"Jiraiya-sensei, isn't that the 'White Fang' senior?"

Hearing the young man's words, Jiraiya's eyes lowered slightly, nodded slightly, and said softly.

"Yes... Watergate..."

The two stopped eating, silently watched Shuo Mao's movements, watched him finish seven bowls of ramen, and then left with a sad expression.

It's all been speechless for a long time.

After a while, Shuimen raised his head, looked at Jiraiya with a sad expression, and asked in a childish voice.

"Teacher... Why did the White Fangs choose to give up their ninja status..."

Speaking of this, he said with some hesitation in his eyes.

"It's... Is it really related to the seniors of Soyousuke like the rumors..."

Obviously, Watergate was a little concerned about this issue, was the senior he revered really as bad as the rumors... He wanted to know the answer.

Hearing Shuimen's immature question, Zilai also showed a slight wry smile.

He hesitated, his eyes sank slightly, and he spoke.

"It's hard for me to give you an answer to that question, Watergate. ”

"Because, Souke is my companion... Even if everyone thinks he's doing something wrong... But I still believe in him..."

Jiraiya's expression was a little complicated, and he said softly.

"That guy may have a plan of his own, and as a companion, I'm too much of a failure to find out what he really wants. ”

"But..."

Jiraiya's eyes sank slightly, and he said firmly.

"I will definitely bring him back, even if it is at the cost of my life, I will definitely bring him back, this is the bond between me and him, and it is the true meaning of being a companion. ”

Hearing Jiraiya's words, Mizumon smiled slightly, and then said softly.

"It's really nice to have a companion like you. ”

Zilai also heard the words of the water gate, and the heavy and serious expression before suddenly changed, and he put on a handsome pose!

He also grinned and showed his white teeth, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile that he thought was very charming!

However, when he glanced at the water gate, his eyes widened!

"Watergate, when did you finish your ramen!"

Jiraiya shouted in shock.

Hearing his words, Watergate smiled embarrassedly and said gently.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Jiraiya, just when you were concentrating on talking, you were so hungry, so you ate it first..."

In this regard, Jiraiya looked depressed and powerless.

"Watergate, if your amount of food is always so large, I am under a lot of pressure as your teacher..."

He leaned on the table, glanced at his wallet, waved his hand and shouted.

"Boss, another bowl!"

Hearing this, Watergate showed a sunny smile on his face and said happily.

"Then I'm sorry for you, Mr. Jiraiya. ”

Jiraiya pursed his lips, but there was a hint of a smile in his eyes and... A touch of remembrance...

This kid... It's very similar to you back then......

惣右介......

And the smiling Watergate is also a secret way in the heart.

"Teacher, if I can reach that level one day, I will personally ask Soyousuke Senpai..."

"Why do you choose to leave the village even though you have a companion like you and four generations of adults......?"

………………

Dark clouds obscured the sky, and the air was filled with a rich smell of humidity, and a long-brewing rainstorm was coming.

In the territory of the Land of Rain, in the village of Rain Ninja.

At the top of the tall black rock building, in an office.

Among them, a young man was squinting slightly at this time, looking at the gradually prosperous village streets below with a happy expression.

In the course of a year, the village has changed dramatically.

It's not a material change, but a new spiritual outlook for the entire village!

People are full of anticipation for the future, which also makes the entire Rain Ninja Village full of hope.

That's it!

Behind the young man, however, there was a sudden magnetic chuckle.

"Kinara, I haven't seen you for a year, and you seem to be very satisfied with your current situation. ”

Hearing this voice that suddenly appeared behind him, Jinnara's pupils suddenly contracted, and then he turned around and looked at it in surprise!

I saw a tall figure standing straight behind him, with a chuckle hooked at the corner of his mouth, and those deep eyes were flashing at this time, looking at him.

"Indigo dyeing...... Captain ......"

Kinara's voice was complicated, and his expression became respectful.

I don't know why, at this time, when Kinnara saw Aizen after a year apart, he could feel the tight sense of oppression that Aizen brought to him more and more.

Just looking at him gently like this, Kinnara could feel a chill behind him.

I don't know what Lady Aizen has gone through...... What is this terrifying sense of deterrence......

Kinnara was secretly surprised in his heart.

Aizen didn't say much, just walked slowly to his side, looked through the window, looked at the rain ninja village below, and chuckled.

"This village seems to be developing as I thought, and that's your credit, Kinnara. ”

Standing beside Aizen, Jinnaro bowed slightly and said softly respectfully.

"It's all glory you've brought to you, Captain Aizen..."

Hearing his words, a smile flashed in Aizen's eyes, and he shook his head lightly and spoke.

"Glory?"

"It's nothing, but it doesn't matter. ”

"By the way, where have you gone now, has something gone wrong in the year I've been away?"

Hearing Aizen's inquiry, Kinnara replied respectfully.

"There was no problem, and the group of children went to the residence of Tamako Daimyo, which should be hidden in the Fire King's Castle at this time. ”

To this, Aizen nodded slightly.

"Is that so... In the case of the Fire King's City, it was a good choice, and it was time to fulfill the promise at that time. ”

With that, he slowly turned around and walked out with his back to Kinara.

Hearing his words, Kinnara was a little puzzled, and didn't understand what Lan was referring to.

Aizen said softly as he walked.

"Prepare for it, if there are suitable seeds in the Rain Ninja Village, maybe you can cultivate them a little... Maybe it will come in handy in the next big war..."

As the soft voice fell, Aizen's figure had disappeared into the shadows.

Hearing his words, Kinnara frowned tightly.

War...... Is it about to start again......

What kind of waves will Lord Aizen set off in the ninja world this time......

Thinking of this, his eyes sank, and he said in a deep voice.

"Send someone to inform Hazy and ask him to recruit some children who are talented enough!"

In the dark, a ninja's face finally relaxed from the incomparable horror.

When I found out that the mysterious Lord came here to meet Kinara-sama, he couldn't move as a Kinnara-sama's guard!

Even!

Not even the ability to make a sound... He didn't want to feel this ant-like helplessness anymore.

His body trembled and he shuddered.

"Yes..."

Then he left the place.

In the office, Kinnara, who was the only one left at this time, looked at the sky that seemed to be about to rain, and muttered softly.

"Father... Mother... Wish... I didn't make a mistake..."
