Chapter 31: The Return
Leaving the humid air of the Land of Rain far behind, the long-lost sunlight and the smell of trees came to your face, insects rose and fell from time to time, and dust flew happily around the light leaking from the fingers of the leaves.
Having arrived in the territory of the Fire Country, the Konoha 6 couldn't help but relax.
It's not just that it's already within the warning range of Konoha and that it's out of the harsh climate of the Land of Rain and back to the environment where I've lived since I was a child, and my body instinctively feels comfortable.
Whoosh......
A few figures leaped easily over the trees, startling a few foraging birds.
White Fang leads, 6 people form a measured and accurate equilateral triangle echelon, as the white-eyed ninja with the most open vision, Hinata Sunset, who has already removed the bandage, is at the midpoint of the bottom of the formation, and Makoto and Shisui are located at the other two vertices of the equilateral triangle on the left and right.
"Hey, Lord White Fang, isn't it coming?"
With a look of joy on her face, Sunset didn't shout too stiffly.
After nearly a month of getting along, the members of this small group have gradually become familiar with each other, and the character of White Fang is extremely serious and serious in the task, but in daily life, it is more similar to an ordinary middle-aged uncle.
Although Qimu Shuomao is in his prime, and there are almost no traces of the years engraved on his handsome face, his son is already 4 years old, and he has already entered the age where he is called an uncle but cannot refute.
"Lord White Fang, you miss your family too, don't you?" Shisui gradually put away his hostility towards Hyuga and joined the conversation.
"yes, when I came out, Kakashi was clamoring to go on a mission with me......"
Thinking of his son, White Fang's face and tone suddenly became gentle.
"Performing a mission? That would be at least until he graduated – maybe another eight years, right? Haha, it wasn't necessary that Lord White Fang was already the Hokage at that time. ”
Uncle Medical Ninja also joked.
Makoto glanced at this uncle who would soon be slapped in the face with an unknown sense of superiority, and secretly slandered in his heart: Kakashi graduated at the age of five, and after 8 years, he has already surpassed your level.
"Sincerely."
With a pang in his heart, Cheng turned his head to look and saw the nonchalant look of White Fang.
"If you have time in the future, come to me and I'll teach you my tactics - the kind of use you copy with the Writing Wheel Eye is too dangerous."
"Yes." I can't refuse, and I don't want to refuse, but does this mean that I want to be honest? But as a genius that the Uchiha clan has spent a lot of resources to cultivate, apprenticeship is not such a simple matter.
Could it be that this genius, who has always suffered from the strength of the Qimu family, finally can't help but make a move on the position of Hokage?
If the family agreed to Shuomao's request for an alliance, what would be the impact on the situation in the village?
Is this the butterfly effect brought about by his own traverser, or is it that White Fang would have formed an alliance with the Uchiha in the first place?
Thinking about it in his heart for a moment, Makoto agreed without hesitation, White Fang's tactics can be said to be walking between life and death, which is very suitable for Makoto, who has excellent dynamic vision and reflexes. No matter what the situation in the village is, the power and knowledge in your hands are your most reliable allies.
As if seeing Makoto's concerns, White Fang smiled self-deprecatingly and said:
"Don't think too much about it, it's just that I don't want this method of battle to hurt you, I don't have any thoughts about the Uchiha clan and the Hokage."
Although this is also in response to Hokage-sama's policy, there is a reason for showing goodwill to the Uchiha on behalf of the Hagi family. I'm not lying, I'm just not telling it completely.
I'm worried that I can't find a chance......
White Fang slandered in his heart, and secretly glanced at Hinata Sunset.
The young man had been silent for a long time, and there was no expression in his pale eyes.
In the bright sunshine, the Konoha gate is already in sight.
Under the sign of the huge whirlpool leaf, the Konoha ninjas in twos and threes were looking forward to it, and the appearance of the White Fang and his party caused an instant commotion.
Hikari, World, Watergate, Kushina, and Dingza, Makoto saw at a glance a few of his friends in the village, and even Kenichi Uchiha, who was conspicuous outside the crowd, appeared here as a representative of the Great Elder.
The six people stopped and looked at each other, and the medical ninja walked towards the crowd first, and on his back, there were 11 scrolls neatly tied - the bodies of the 11 victims were lying quietly in it, and the medical ninja had been tasked with the corpse recovery class during the exam.
For a moment, people who were already worried about not seeing their children erupted into suppressed cries and low comforting voices.
Walking towards his group of relatives and friends, Makoto really felt that he had walked out of the wet Zhongnin exam at this time, and he couldn't help the joy in his heart, he smiled and said hello:
"Yo, everyone."
The golden sunlight shone silently, and the world suddenly threw itself into his arms.
Mizumon and Jiu Sinai held hands, looked at each other and smiled, and also stepped forward.
Sweeping the sad look of the Qiu Dao clan next to him, Ding Zuo showed a slightly sympathetic look, but when he saw Makoto, that look was swept away, replaced by happiness from the heart.
Hikari laughed, unconcealed his worry and joy, but reached out and dragged a girl out from behind, and said in a deliberately serious voice:
"Welcome back! Let me introduce, this is my sister Qingxi, you should have seen it when you were young.
"She just graduated this year and will be living with us from now on!"
"Honest ...... San, you, hello ......."
Looking at the girl who straightened her body, but greeted her with her eyes closed, Cheng suddenly felt a black line.
In other words, how keen are the parents of the light parents to create children, which is beneficial to the family inheritance...... Another child who was kicked out of the house just after graduation, should it be said that it is a tradition in the light family?
But, either way, it's welcome.
"Yo, boy, welcome."
"Cheng, this year's new potato chips, chili flavor~"
"Fatty, you have itchy skin, don't you! (╰_╯)”
"Kushinabe...... Makoto, I have an idea of the technique you told me before you left, haha...... Don't be like this, Kushinai (
°△°|||)! ”
Fat ( ̄e(# ̄).
In the midst of the chaos, Kenichi, who had already obtained the scroll of the bewildering corpse, walked over, and his tone was a little more respectful in his usual indifference:
"Chengjun, the Great Elder is very satisfied with your performance in this assessment, please keep up your efforts."
Makoto nodded, his gaze paused for a moment on the scroll with the Uchiha's confusing name written on it, but he still didn't say anything.
The bewitched person who sacrificed for the benefit of the family will naturally be taken care of by the family, and now he is just a pawn in the clan, what can he do.
However, Makoto's eyes glanced over the group of friends next to him one by one, and secretly clenched his hands.
Reality is that there is both light and darkness.
It is precisely because I can recognize the reality clearly that I want to change it.
I will never compromise with reality - if there is such a thing as a ninja, this is my ninja.
