Chapter Forty-Eight: Three Years Later

"Toot..."

With the sound of white steam, the train wheels began to turn with the sound of a train horn.

Sakura sat alone in the carriage, her chin in her hands, her eyes looking out intently.

The crowd and the buildings quickly receded, and the scenery outside the car window turned into a forest.

It's not the first time I've taken a train, so I don't have the excitement of taking a train for the first time.

But I have to say that the train, a convenient means of transportation, is really much faster than the simple ninja sprinting before.

It's been almost three years.

From three years ago, from the day known as God's Birthday.

The world has changed dramatically.

No one knows exactly what caused it, only on that day.

God, Born!

And the identity of God, which he and many others should have known, was, like all who knew, his memory so blurred that he could not trace all his memories of that person, his face, his name.

I only know that she existed and was born!

After the birth of God, the world began to change dramatically.

The walls that originally surrounded the Dream Country were opened for the first time, and a large amount of high-tech began to flow out, and the originally deformed human civilization began to collapse under the impact of various black technologies relative to this era.

After the original five major countries of the ninja world were merged into the dream country, hundreds of other small countries were also merged, and there is only one country on the entire continent so far.

The Land of Dreams.

After the unification of the entire continent was completed, the skirmishes and hidden smoke that had broken out often began to recede, and peace truly came to this continent that had been divided for thousands of years.

Countless bandits and thieves who had lurked in the swamps of the mountains left, and under the pardon signed by the Twelve Sages of the Supreme Council, they were given new land and food.

After the completion of the centralization, a large number of resources began to be evenly distributed, and the original bloody ninja system was reformed by the Supreme Council, and various ninjutsu became more of an auxiliary role.

It's not just for the previous escorts, killings, and other tasks.

Scientific and technological research, forging, industry, metals, medical care, desert oasis reform, precipitation, construction of transportation networks across the continent and many other aspects.

A new civilization system is gradually established, and this civilization system has brought about drastic changes, and the status of ninjas has been reduced much compared to before.

Some ninjas who were nostalgic for the glory of the past chose to make trouble, and of course they were bloodily suppressed without incident, and in the face of the powerful liquid metal robot army at the control of the Supreme Council, a small commotion was not a big deal at all.

And for Sakura, in this peaceful era, enjoying this kind of change, is actually not bad.

But it's frustrating to go to school again!

It took a long time to graduate from the ninja academy, but the school established in the Supreme Council made it mandatory for everyone of a certain age to complete nine years of compulsory education.

For Sakura, who was only thirteen years old three years ago, she was ordered to go to school.

From the elementary school, students learn new characters called Chinese characters, new knowledge concepts...

The days when she studied with a group of children who were only six or seven years old made her feel very ashamed, but fortunately, after three years of hard study, she skipped a grade like crazy, and not long ago she was finally admitted to a key high school for this age group.

And this time, also taking advantage of the summer vacation before entering school, she plans to go to Kyoto to have a fun.

It's just that I told my mother that I was here to play in Kyoto, but the main thing is to meet that person.

"Sasuke, are you alright?"

......

Kyoto!

That is, the capital of the entire Dream Country, which was originally just a big city, before the God's Birthday, the Dream Country has been closed and rarely communicates with the outside world, and with the completion of unification after the centralization, this original Dream Country has become Kyoto.

With the seventeen-hour train, Sakura arrived in Kyoto the next morning.

After getting off the train, there was a sea of people around her, leaving the train station along the crowded flow of people, and the surrounding high-rise buildings appeared in her eyes.

It's the same as what you see on TV, but it has a different kind of shock when you look at the scene.

Unlike the city of Konoha Hidden Village, which is now called Konoha, the flow of people and vehicles on the main streets moves rapidly, showing the fast-paced steps of life.

Standing in this strange city, Sakura suddenly felt overwhelmed.

It was at this time.

"Sakura-chan!" a familiar cry rang out from behind her.

Sakura looked behind her in surprise, a familiar bearded face, a silly smile, blonde hair, and a hand touching the back of her head.

"Naruto, why are you here!"

Although they hadn't seen him for three years, Sakura still recognized him at a glance.

"Yesterday when I called, Auntie said you came here, I looked at the train schedule, so I'm here to pick you up!" Naruto smirked, showing his white teeth.

"But, I remember your words, aren't you going to make up for the lesson?" Sakura said with some surprise at first, and then some hesitation.

The last time I contacted Naruto, this guy failed to go to junior high school, and now it's only the fifth grade.

"Well, it's okay, I just skipped class!" Naruto gave a thumbs up and smiled heartily.

"It's okay!" Sakura looked black.

"Don't talk about that, Sakura came to see me, I'm so impressed!" Naruto said excitedly. "It's really annoying to be forced to study by my parents every day!"

Sakura said coldly, "No, I'm just here to find Sasuke!"

"What!" Naruto immediately decayed, taking on the form of a mourning dog.

"It's ugly! crane tail!" Sasuke's mocking voice came, wearing a black shirt, Sasuke walked up to Naruto in the early morning sun, his thin lips revealing a hint of mockery.

"Sasuke!" Sakura shouted in surprise.

"Sasuke, I really don't like you to get up!" Naruto's angry voice rang out.

Not far away, Uchiha Itachi, who was maintaining order in the crowd, was wearing a police uniform, and when he heard the movement here, he smiled slightly.

On the outside film and television screen of a high-rise building, the head of Orochimaru's experimental team, Jun Malu, announced that the latest generation of genetic potions capable of transferring and cultivating chakra had been developed.

On a nearby street across this street, although Shouzuru has disappeared for a long time, I Airo, who still has two panda eyes, sits in a cold drink shop, helplessly looking out the window at my sister Temari who is shopping frantically in the shopping street next door.

All the pocket money his mother gave him was robbed by her to buy clothes!

At a famous desert-style restaurant in Kyoto Prefecture, Scorpion is busy serving its signature dish, fried three-tailed scorpion, and Chiyo is sitting on a rocking chair outside the restaurant basking in the sun with a happy face.

Kyoto Central Park, Xiao Nan spilled the feed in his hand, a large number of white pigeons were startled and fell, pecking at the feed, on the bench not far from him, Nagato and Yahiko stared at each other, their eyes were full of electric sparks, following the last Nagato confession incident and Yahiko's marriage proposal, both of them had a thought.

"You must not let this guy be alone with Xiao Nan!"

Another corner of the Civic Park.

On a newly built stage, Kirabi was kicked off the stage by a splash of eggs and banana peels as soon as he sang a few words.

Jiraiya sat in a hall, staring at the female reader in front of him with a sexy body and exposing most of her breasts, and asked with a wicked smile with a slow signature in her hand.

"Can you get to know me?"

"You horny bastard, give me some restraint!" Tsunade's iron fist suddenly fell, ignoring the big bag on his head, and shoved a one-year-old baby into him, "Shirou handed it over to you, old man, they asked me to play mahjong!"

"But I'm having an autograph session!" shouted Jiraiya as he burst into tears as he left the back of Tsunade.

On the other side of the street, Kakashi, as a security guard, ignored his job duties and walked around with the "Intimacy Paradise" he had just bought, as if no one was there, and Rin whispered this in his ear, staring at Kakashi not far behind him.

"Kakashi, bastard!"

In the mansion of the Hyuga family, Hinata blushed shyly, lying on the bed and looking at the love cheats he secretly bought - "How to Make the Stupid Him Perceive Your Mind".

In the playground of Central Park, a cute child with silver hair holds a thin string tied to a yellow balloon in his hand.

"Hey, feather!" a gentle woman, also with long silver hair and waist-length, handed him the candy apples she had just bought.

"Thank you, Mommy!" the little boy excitedly took the candy apple.

"And Hamura, it's yours!"

"Wow! Brother Feather is older than me, I want him that!"

"Then I'll give you this, Hamura!"

......

Night!

On top of the huge clock tower in the center of Kyoto, a girl dressed in a singer's costume sits on the clock tower, shaking her bare feet, looking at the city at her feet, and humming softly.

The night shook in the waves

The quiet silence is poignant

Tree-lined shore

Brilliant dawn

Just be patient

With a pure heart

Grey sea and sky across the shore

There is no fertile ground for strife

Who told me?

No one can get there

Or in someone's heart

A song composed to nourish the earth that calms the waters of the waters

Even though he is no longer in the world

You can also get it with your own hands

Whenever, one day, will ......

Holding the proof of water

endure all these hardships and hardships

Broadly, gently flowing

Reach the other side of the silence

Whenever, someday, definitely

Take your hand

......

PS: Lux's proof of water is a song, I originally wanted to end with the lyrics in the Crown of Sin, but I don't think it's appropriate, there is no outline, and I feel that this ending is seriously deviating from what I originally thought!

All of this is the choice of the Gate of the Stone of Destiny, and there is another book friend, what is the author's daily entry into the palace!

Like a small round face, the ballad of the Grim Reaper, a stupid girl or something, I recommend it.

I didn't want to open a new book, and recently I wrote a new book, saved the manuscript, and wrote five chapters, and then suddenly I felt that I couldn't give up!
