Konoha left the village late at night and rushed to the border of the Fire Nation, where they wanted to stop the enemy outside the Fire Realm.

Konoha Village, shrouded in night, became even more silent because of everyone's departure, and suddenly, at the Hokage Yan Yan on the back, the space was distorted.

A black shadow appeared out of thin air, standing on top of Yan Yan of the fourth generation Hokage.

The shadow seemed to melt completely into the night, and it was difficult for anyone to detect him.

He wears an orange spiral mask on his face, and what is even more strange is that the mask has only one eye hole.

The scarlet eyes reflected an incomparably cold and calm light, and through the only eye hole in the mask, the black shadow looked at the Konoha under his feet, motionless.

Even though this village was his home, even if the Hokage under his feet was his dream, but from a long, long time ago, everything was shattered by reality.

Now this home is no different from a strange place in the eyes of the dark shadow, and the previous dreams have long become empty for him.

In the eyes of the black shadow, Konoha's strength at this moment fell to the lowest level ever.

The countries united to fight against the Land of Fire, and almost all the elite ninjas that Konoha could dispatch had been dispatched, and the village under his feet was the weakest time for the Black Shadow at this moment.

The light in his eyes flickered, and in the end, the black shadow did not make any action, and his entire body once again shuttled through the space and disappeared from Yan Yan of the fourth generation Hokage.

By the time he reappeared in this space, he had already arrived in the northeast of Konoha.

It's not a residential area, and there are no commercial buildings, just a wide lawn surrounded by trees.

The green lawn is not monotonous, on the contrary, there are many stone monuments here, and under the stone monuments, the heroic souls who died for the village are buried.

A black shadow in a mask appeared in front of an inconspicuous tombstone, and for the first time, indifferent scarlet eyes fluttered.

"Lynn, I'm coming to see you again." The black shadow said softly, with a bit of tenderness in his tone, but also a little pain.

He is so contradictory, all the meaning of his existence is because of the stone tablet in front of him.

Squatting down, some rough hands gently caressed the tombstone, as if he could get closer to Lynn, as if he could touch Lynn like this, as if he was not dead like this.

Yes, in his heart, Lynn has never died, even if that heart has become hollow.

It is not the death of the body that can be judged whether a person has really died, but whether that person has been forgotten in the hearts of others.

Therefore, Lynn has always been alive, alive every day, still smiling like a flower, and still so understanding.

The black shadow has not forgotten her for a day, and this deep bond has long been integrated into the flesh and bones, seeping into the soul.

It's a pity that this is Konoha, and the dark shadow can't even offer a flower, because Rin has been forgotten by the people of this village, and if he offers flowers, it will be easy for him to show his feet.

Of course, there is one person in this village who has not forgotten Lynn, and he occasionally comes to lay flowers.

But the Masked Man would never allow the flower from the man who killed Lin to appear in front of Lynn's tombstone, and if he found it, he would throw it away in a manic manner.

Gently rubbing the tombstone, the face of the black shadow hidden behind the mask rose a little gentle, and only in front of this tomb would he be so relaxed.

The moonlit night was cold, and the masked man didn't know how long he stayed, and finally straightened up at some point.

"I'm sorry, Lynn, I have to go again," he said, still looking at the tombstone, "I have to keep going!" ”

The figure of the black shadow gradually faded in the center of the distorted space, and his voice came out, "Lin, I want to create a world with you!" ”

The mysterious masked man did not take advantage of the emptiness of Konoha's internal strength to attack Konoha, he wanted to do something more important.

It just so happened that the attention of all the ninjas in Konoha was distracted by the union of the countries, and the war between the Konoha ninjas and other countries was an unusually good time for the masked man, and he was going to pick up something special.

……

In fact, in this crisis in the Fire Country, Konoha still has an extremely powerful force that has not joined the team to fight against the countries.

That was the Myojinmon organization led by Naruto Uzumaki, and the strength of everyone in the organization was comparable to the shadow level, but Naruto Uzumaki was not ready to let them show their faces.

Because, the excuse for the nations to unite against the Fire Nation is each one of them, and if they are sent, although they can put the war down, it will affect the future situation.

Once they appeared, the countries would probably want to kill them without saying anything, which was not what Naruto wanted to see.

The result Naruto wanted to see was not to lose the battle with the other ninja villages, but to persuade the ninja villages to continue to be like in their previous lives, where everyone was a companion and united to the outside world.

Therefore, Naruto did not let the strong team of Myojinmon show up and participate in the battle against the countries.

The morning sun has hung in the eastern sky, blooming with a warm light that dispels the cold and darkness of the night.

Naruto Uzumaki, with the answers he found from the Daimyo of the Land of Winds, is rushing back to Konoha at full speed.

This answer is also like the rising sun in the sky, which will dispel the darkness that has been hidden in the ninja world for so many years, and the daimyo's delusional ambition to destroy ninjas has been exposed to the sun, and now, just waiting for Naruto to reveal it.

However, he had to go back to the village first and let Shikamaru analyze and analyze the reasons why the daimyo did this. It's not that Naruto Uzumaki is too stupid, it's that neither he nor the fifth generation of Kazekage Iara are aware of the most basic positioning of ninjas.

The figure was as blurry as the wind, constantly passing the distance between the Sand Ninja Village and the Konoha Ninja Village, and Naruto Uzumaki thought that he was afraid that the three generations of Jiraiya Sensei had already gone to the front line.

I don't know how the five generations of Hokage are arranged, did Shikamaru play the role of a staff officer in it?

Frontier of the Fire Nation.

To the northwest, northeast, and east, the three combat teams sent by Konoha were in place almost at the same time.

To their relief, the raiding teams of various countries were also rushing towards them in unison from as far as the eye could see.

Unlike the people of Konoha, the crusaders of various countries all grinned on their faces, and although they had not yet arrived, they had reached out and pointed at the people of Konoha.

"Haha, I'm not mistaken, Konoha is just these few people to fight us?"

"It's not like that's how you want to die."

"Don't talk about it, don't you know that the Fire Nation has been surrounded, it's already good that they can draw these few people to fight."

"Haha, that's right."

Northwest Theater.

The three generations of Hokage, dressed in black combat uniforms, looked at the crowd on the other side, his old eyes narrowed slightly, and he secretly said in his heart, "It seems that the countries really came with the purpose of extinguishing the Fire Country, and their number is ten times that of us!" ”
