Chapter 118: Vortex Tide (Free Chapter)
The country of vortex is a country that has been destroyed for a long time. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThis poor little country escaped the chaotic Warring States period, but disappeared into this era of relative peace. And the Vortex clan in the country of the vortex can only wander around, with no home to rely on.
Historically, the country of the Vortex is smaller than the average small country, and the ninjas of the Vortex Village are skilled in sealing, and are feared by other nations or races. It was in this situation that they were attacked by a group and then disappeared. Therefore, it is not a good thing to be too powerful, it will not only make people arrogant, but also make people isolated.
Because the country of vortex was originally located on a small island east of the country of fire, the eleventh class also came to the port early to set off by boat. Two weeks is not a long time, so you have to hurry.
The road ahead is not smooth. It's not that anyone who doesn't have long eyes and dares to block the way, it's the power of nature that makes the boat on which Sasuke and the others are riding a little bumpy. The Vortex Strait, one of the huge straits that connects the land of fire and the land of water, has two daily ebbs and flows to and fro with a large amount of seawater. Under the gravitational pull of the moon, the tides form a vortex landscape with a large range and high tidal speed.
It is said to be a landscape, but it is actually a moat. During the Great Ninja War, the Fog Hidden Ninjas, who were good at water escape, had to bypass the vortex tide and launch an attack on the Fire Country. What's more embarrassing is that the small island where the country of vortex is located is right next to the vortex. Maybe it's because of this miracle of nature that it has the names of Vortex Country and Vortex Village.
Under the sun, the water and the sky intersect. The clear blue water and the clear blue sky blend together to form a line in the distance, making it look extraordinarily vast. The sun shines on the sea, sparkling and intoxicating. Looking at the undulating waters and feeling the waves swaying back and forth against the hull, Sasuke felt his whole heart open.
This is the charm of the sea, and it is also the reason why countless boys yearn for the sea of stars. This represents not only an unknown possibility, but also a distant ideal hometown.
"However, there are still people who are disappointed in this beauty. Isn't it, Kakashi-sensei?"
Sasuke leaned back against the fence and looked at Kakashi beside him. The beautiful scenery in front of him had no attraction at all for this obscene guy at heart, and he was still looking at his little yellow book with relish. But this time he read Jiraiya's new book "Affectionate Violence", which can be regarded as an improvement.
"How could Tsunade's mother-in-law send you here? Naruto, don't they have to worry about you?" Sasuke said in disgust.
"Ah, I'm pretty idle, actually. Kakashi said, closing the book. "Naruto was captured by Jiraiya-sama for special training, and Sakura was also accepted by Tsunade-sama as a disciple to teach medical ninjutsu. ”
"Huh?"
Sasuke looked surprised when he heard this.
"It's hard to imagine that slacker actually agreed to take Sakura as an apprentice. When?"
After Tsunade became Hokage, Sasuke also asked Tsunade to guide Sakura, but he was resolutely refused. The reason is that the Hokage has a lot of things to do, and he can't be busy, and it's almost exactly the same as the rhetoric he used to throw Hanabi to Sasuke in the first place. So Sasuke can only take Sakura to intern in the hospital, and he doesn't want to be enlightened this time.
"I don't know exactly when. Maybe Sakura's sincerity moved Tsunade-sama. ”
"Really?" Sasuke's tone was full of suspicion.
Of course not. Kakashi deeply understood that Tsunade would take Sakura as an apprentice just so that he could devote himself to going to Vortex Village with Sasuke.
"Kakashi, this mission is important. Jilai and I will take care of Naruto and Sakura for you, so you can take Hanabi and follow Sasuke out of the village. Sasuke is still an immature child, so don't let him be affected by things outside the village. ”
"Your observation skills are very good, and you are his former mentor, so I don't think he will have too many doubts, just observe him in a normal manner. And if you have a child, Sasuke won't mess around. ”
[This is no longer a caretaker, it's simply surveillance]
As Sasuke relaxed and admired the calm sea, Kakashi sighed worriedly.
[Tsunade-sama, have you discovered anything?, does Sasuke have any other purpose in leaving the village this time?]
"I said Sasuke, aren't you going to see that kid with Hanabi, she seems to be a little seasick, as a senior brother, you can't ignore it, right?"
As if to dispel the doubts and heavy feelings in his heart, Kakashi directly asked and changed the subject.
"No, Tayuya and Zuo Jin looked at her. And Hanabi is a strong girl. Sasuke said as he turned to the sea again, a look of disappointment.
"Really, didn't you say there would be a huge whirlpool? ”
"Hey, it's a good thing that you can't meet it. ”
Kakashi stroked his forehead helplessly. It seems that Sasuke is still the same Sasuke, and nothing has changed.
"In fact, life is like this sea, there are ebb and flow, and there are more than half a hundred unsatisfactory things. If handled well, these happy things and bitter things will have a magnificent scenery in front of you, which is the wealth of a lifetime. In the same way, if you are attracted to something as distant as the moon, you may form a moat such as a vortex. ”
Sasuke looked back at Kakashi, his eyes full of doubt, as if he was looking at someone he hadn't seen before.
"A good natural beauty is what you say. Kakashi-sensei, what the hell are you doing today? Speak vaguely, with a sigh of life, it really doesn't look like you. ”
With that, Sasuke rolled over two steps and jumped on the mast. Stretch out your hands, as if you want to embrace the whole sky, the sea.
"If you want me to say, the sea is not better than life. It's more like this complex world, with calm and beautiful sides, as well as sudden storms. Just as there is always something that cannot be resisted by man, the whirlpool of social storms will slowly brew under this tranquility, and then suddenly sweep me into it. ”
"How could it be. Kakashi laughed. "As long as we work together, there will always be a way to solve anything. ”
"That's not right. ”
But Sasuke clearly disagreed with Kakashina's open-minded views and waved his hand in disagreement.
"As a simple example, what can we ninjas do if the moon hits the earth?"
"Huh?" Kakashi couldn't keep up with Sasuke's brain.
"If the moon hits the earth, I'm afraid that humanity will become extinct immediately. There will always be a few disasters in the world that we can't avoid, like I prevented the death of three generations of old men but couldn't prevent his arm from being cut off. There are some things that no matter how hard we try, it is difficult to achieve perfection. So trying to live in the moment and leaving no regrets is the best choice for people. ”
"However, it is impossible to leave no regrets. If you don't give your future self a chance to regret it, you'll definitely regret it when the time comes. ”
Kakashi looked at Sasuke's slightly lonely face, and his expression gradually became solemn.
[Tsunade-sama, your decision was the right one. Sasuke has really changed, I let him leave the seventh class for too long. 】
Secretly determined, Kakashi put away the little yellow book and wanted to jump next to Sasuke. At this moment, the hull of the ship began to shake violently, and Kakashi, who was in the air, had nowhere to borrow strength, so he had to hold on to the mast and land smoothly on the deck.
"What's going on?"
Tayuya and the others felt this unusual shaking and walked out of the cabin one after another, and the seasick fireworks couldn't even stand, relying entirely on Xianglin to hold them.
"Ah, it's not good, it's all because I'm a crow's mouth. ”
Sasuke was still standing at the top of the mast, overlooking the sea. Ahead of us, there was no longer a calm sea, and a huge whirlpool with no boundaries in sight appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
"It's sudden, be prepared to get wet. ”
