56. Chapter 56

In this handover of light, no one noticed the fall of a star, and no one noticed that something suddenly shuttled through the sea of time and caught the falling star.

The dazzling golden light dissipated, and the huge black sphere and the large barrel of wood Kaguya were gone, and the blow that was about to destroy the world just now seemed to have never happened. The glacier beneath Sasuke and Naruto's feet was sealed along with the disappearance of Kaguya, and the two of them were once again standing on the wolf ground under the darkness of the night.

Everywhere there was a jumble of rubble, and the traces of the fierce battle were everywhere. The night breeze whipped the ground, rolling up a shower of gravel and broken leaves. The cold moon rings hung in the sky, hanging on the sleeping earth.

The night breeze blew his short blond hair, and he looked at Sasuke who was standing in front of him and asked strangely, "Just now...... What happened? ”

Sasuke gave him a faint look and said, "I don't know what happened, but we were saved." ”

As he spoke, he ran towards the sacred tree that stood on the earth, and drew his Kusanagi sword in one hand. Before he could get there, the trees began to unwrap themselves, revealing the humans who had been curled up and trapped in a dream.

"The red-haired eldest sister just now...... Who is it? Naruto hadn't reacted yet: "I'll ask the six ......"

"The god of time." Sasuke withdrew his sword and glanced at him coldly: "Far beyond Kaguya and the six realms of the Cunzài." You won't remember her because every time she leaves the world, it erases other people's memories of her. ”

"Then how would Sasuke know?" Naruto asked, confused.

"Hmph." Sasuke turned his head: "The tail of the crane." ”

Naruto: ......??? What happened to him...... Sasuke's heart is really hard to guess......

The people who were liberated by the sacred tree had just woken up from their dreams, and they still had an unaware look on their faces. Among them was a young man with black hair, dressed in a crimson robe, with a handsome appearance, but with a few battle scars on his cheeks. He had just woken up, but he seemed very calm, and he did not show the slightest expression of confusion.

"Sasuke." He walked over to Sasuke and asked, "What about her?" ”

"......" Sasuke knew who he was asking about and said, "I don't know." After coming out of the other dimension, I haven't seen it. ”

Standing on the desolate ground, Uchiha Itachi opened his eyes towards the full moon hanging high. It was a pair of dark red eyes, not as good as his own, but he could see many more distant things, such as time.

"Just now...... In a dream. Itachi said, "I seem to see a lot of things. I saw you and Naruto fighting together. ”

Sasuke was stunned for a moment.

He remembered a sentence - Zhao Fenghong once said that her eyes are here, in this world.

"Sasuke, forgive me." Itachi said, "There are many things I can't explain to you yet. I'm going to leave for a while. ”

There was a look of concentration on his face, an expression that Sasuke hadn't seen in a long time. He subconsciously wanted to blame his brother for his gaffes and disobedience to his promises like he did when he was a child, but he couldn't speak at the moment.

Itachi raised his hand, his pale arms sliding out of his crimson cuffs. He seemed to want to tap the brother's forehead, but his hand retracted halfway through. Itachi smiled at Sasuke for the first time in a long time and said, "You've grown up, Sasuke. …… I have a lot to say to you, about you, about my family, about my dad and mom, but I have more important things to do right now. ”

The last time Sasuke saw Itachi smile like that was on the day of the brothers' decisive battle. Itachi collapsed in front of him with a smile, leaving behind endless regrets and mysteries. And now, he finally smiled in front of Sasuke again.

Sasuke turned his head coldly and said, "You go, remember to come back." ”

With his brother's permission, Itachi ran quickly forward. His eyes under his long eyelashes turned from side to side, as if searching for direction. Before he could get far, someone came looking for him.

The sea of time suddenly opened, and the Huayue Courtyard stood in front of him, above the stars and among the golden butterflies.

However, she doesn't quite look like a maple red. She didn't have long red hair, her hair was pure white, like the color of snow. And she didn't lose her eyes, she had a pair of white eyes.

"You......" Itachi frowned.

It wasn't the first time he'd arrived in the Sea of Time, but it was the first time he'd seen it with his eyes. The woman standing in front of him had a familiar look, but she was not the one he was familiar with.

"Hello, Itachi-kun." The white-haired woman spoke: "I am the god of time, and the god of omnipotence, the guide of Huangquan and Biluo. You should be tired of hearing such titles. My name is Kazuki-in Tetsune-in, but it's not the Kaede of your plane. To put it simply, Zhao Fenghong, whom you know, are two parallel time and space with different existences. ”

Itachi was silent for a moment, quickly accepting the statement. He nodded slowly and asked, "What about her?" ”

"She traded herself for Kaguya." The white-haired woman replied, "I have done a little bit to save her." When you see her later, there may be some changes in her appearance. And - she is no longer an eternal god. She became an ordinary human. ”

"Change?" Itachi repeated coldly.

"I reset her age and memories to before she became a god. However, because of personal vendetta, I set her physical age to fourteen. Fourteen-year-old body and eight-year-old mind – you might have some trouble after that. ”

"Why?" Itachi calmly asked why.

"Hey, why?" The white-haired woman laughed and said, "There is no reason. She and I have been gods for too long, and we're used to making decisions for others. That's how she treated me back then, so that's how I repay her today. What's more – it's also to save her. ”

"......" Itachi's gaze froze.

"But thankfully, there are some differences between me and her. I lived under my adoptive parents for six years before becoming a god. These six years were short compared to my long life, but they left an indelible impact on me. To put it simply, I am more attached to the world than her, retain more primitive emotions, and meddle in human affairs more easily. So...... I'll give her back to you. But ......"

"But?" Itachi was waiting for this chattering Zhao Fenghong to finish speaking.

"You know, the rules of the gods. Equivalent exchange. What can you come up with to my satisfaction? The white-haired Terum smiled.

"What do you want?" Itachi pondered for a moment, then asked decisively.

"I want to swap with you." The white-haired Zhao Fenghong replied, "Countless years ago, I exchanged the red color on my body for the name of the god of time. Now, I want to use your red maple to exchange the divine power in my body. ”

"......" Itachi's gaze moved, he was silent for a while, and said, "You want me to be a being like you?" ”

"That's right." Zhao Fenghong replied: "However, don't worry, I won't let you exchange memories and emotions, because this is my own request." I love the world and want to go back to the world that belongs to me. Come to think of it, not everyone wants to end up being time. ”

After saying this, the white-haired Terukaze began to walk slowly among the stars, as if waiting for Itachi's answer. Itachi didn't think long before agreeing, "Okay." ”

The white-haired Zhao Fenghong stopped her slow steps, and she stretched out her hand towards the Itachi: "Come on." ”

Her hands were also white, clean like an autumn stream. She placed her palm on the back of the ferret's hand, and the lines of flame crept down her wrist towards the ferret's body.

"You will replace me and become a god eternal in the sea of time, manipulating the flow of time, connecting Biluo and Huangquan, until one day you exchange the power of the gods." The white-haired Zhao Fenghong muttered, her voice low hovering through the starry sky.

"You can call me 'Father' if you like, but there is no such thing as 'Mother'. Men and women, whoever conveys the title of the god of time are called 'Father'. Still, between you and mine...... ...... in this plane relationship, I thought, forget it. ”

The white-haired Zhao Fenghong thought to herself, belching her wife and calling her father, it must be very embarrassing. Not to himself and not his wife......

The starlight around them bloomed brilliantly in an instant, and the golden butterflies flew quietly. The huge sea of stars, with countless years of history and memories, bloomed with gorgeous light. In the moments before the ritual was about to be completed, Itachi asked in a low voice, "In that world, I am ...... with Zhao Fenghong."

"There is no intersection." The white-haired Zhao Fenghong said, "Don't forget the 'equivalent exchange'. There are countless parallel planes in this world, and there are times and times where you have your family and relatives, but you will not meet me. There will be times when you meet me, but you will lose your family and loved ones. …… Don't be too greedy. ”

The white-haired woman let out a final chuckle and dispersed in the sea of time.

A thin little girl fell from the sky and fell into the ferret's arms. Her shoulders and arms were thin and thin, and she didn't look strong. Long red hair fell from Itachi's arms, like a red waterfall. The stars on all sides were shining, and the golden butterfly flew quietly and landed on Zhao Fenghong's forehead.

Itachi lowered her head and kissed her sideburns as she slept. His arm around the little girl's shoulder was wrapped in the lines of flames.
