The great sunset, sinking from the distant seashore, ripples flooded with blood, birds streaked by, fish leaped. Above the clouds, at first sight, several people kept going up, and the air was getting thinner and thinner, but fortunately, it was still within an acceptable range.

"There is an island in the sky!" Mamai sighed as the birds hovered overhead.

Behind the clouds, there was a huge island, and the whole island had an incomparably huge tree. The trees are lush and lush, and you can see that there are a lot of birds flying on it.

After the four of them landed, they raised their heads and looked at the big tree that gave people a sense of sacredness, and the island was also overgrown with grass. The four of them looked curious, and Boruto stepped forward, stretched out his hand, and slowly touched it, and finally landed on the rough bark.

A gust of wind blew, and the friction between the "rustling" leaves, Boruto felt the breath of a thousand years ago through this contact. Something shocking happened, the tree emitted a green light, and at the same time, Boruto's body also grew branches, and his hair turned green.

"Boruto," the real clothes behind him seemed a little frightened when he saw it.

In the cycle of time, there is a vision and space for the future, a fear of the past, and a curiosity and fear of the unknown.........

"Human? This feeling, however, is so different from that of humans thousands of years ago," this ancient tree actually spoke.

The four of them took a few steps back in fear, and an old man, on crutches, gradually walked out of the trunk of the big tree. The old man's skin is like this tree, and he can barely see his eyes clearly, and his head is in charge, and his rickety body looks very vicissitudes.

"Ahh Maki and Mayi shouted in fear.

It was the first time I saw such a strange-looking person, this complexion, shriveled like a dried corpse, "What a group of impolite children," the old man's voice also trembled a little.

After reacting slightly, "Grandpa, how can this island float in the sky?" Boruto asked curiously.

The old man looked at the young man and was silent for a moment: "There is something very lifelike in your body that can resonate with this tree, what a strange child." It's been so long, I haven't seen a human in a long time, how did you get here? ”

Seeing that the old man did not answer his own question, but asked rhetorically, Zhenwu also calmed down and plucked up his courage: "We just feel that there is life behind the clouds, so we want to come and take a look, old man, we can't go, the teacher is still waiting for us to go back." ”

True dance, at this time, is not in the mood to continue to stay here at all, and just wants to leave here as soon as possible.

The old man hammered his crutches: "Come if you want, leave if you want, you should be a place here." ”

"Please?" Makai didn't know how to come up with a trick, and began to be coquettish.

The old man looked at the pair of plump breasts, and suddenly became embarrassed, and coughed a few times: "This...... As long as you come to me for a long time in the future. ”

Hearing this, everyone present quieted down, yes, I don't know how long it has been, alone, it must be very lonely. The most feared thing in the world is not death, but loneliness, because loneliness can make you want to see even your enemies.

"Actually, a long, long time ago, this island was just a piece of land on the main road, but on it. It grows a sacred tree, and on top of the sacred tree, a fruit grows, and this fruit has the power of God. Later, after the fruit was plucked, the tree, along with the ground under its feet, began to float and float with it," the old man said slowly.

That fruit is the chakra fruit that Kaguya Ji ate, that is, this old man, who has lived for so long, has become one with this big tree.

"It's been so long, and the world has changed dramatically," True Mai's fear of this old man gradually dissipated.

"Grandpa, don't worry, we will definitely come to accompany you often in the future, by the way, what's your name?" Boruto asked.

Hearing this question, the old man fell silent for a moment and looked at the vast sky: "Name? It's been a long time since anyone has called me, I've forgotten. ”

This answer made the four of them stunned, and this seemingly casual sentence was mixed with a lot of helplessness and loneliness.

"Then I'll call you a bad old man, I can't even remember my name, it must be terrible, don't worry, we will come to see you often in the future." I won't let you forget your name again," Boruto grinned through his teeth.

The old man looked at the young man, and the old man's eyes, which were almost invisible, showed a glimmer of light, and he was shocked and delighted......

There was a rare sound of laughter on this lonely island, and the four of them told interesting stories about their past, amusing the bad old man. Before I knew it, it was already seven o'clock in the evening, and it was already dark, and the big trees on the island emitted a mysterious green light.

No one sat under the tree, talking, time passed so quickly, and in the vast darkness of the night, it seemed so harmonious.

"Oops, old man, we've changed it back, and I'll play with you next time," Boruto said.

The other three also said the same, "I'll give you a gift, let's count it as a greeting gift," the bad old man took out a box from his pocket.

Boruto took it and was about to open it, but the bad old man stopped him: "Don't open it here, go back and open it." ”

Although it seemed a little mysterious, Boruto had no choice but to give up, and everyone rode away on tools, relying on the stars and moonlight in the vast dark night.

The bad old man looked at the distant figure, and his face showed a trace of envy: It's good to be young.

In the room, Boruto sat on a chair and looked at the family portrait on the table, and couldn't help but feel a little sentimental, wondering what happened to his mother and Sunflower now. Ran took out the box, opened it, and saw that there was a green pendant similar to Magatama inside.

I didn't understand what it was, but I thought it was pretty good, so I wore it around my neck.

The practice continued, and half a year passed like this, and in the course of a year, the boy grew a lot. It's not just combat skills, but more importantly, combat mentality, combat experience, and now, it's almost time to set off and fight back.

And in this year, the outside world is also undergoing earth-shaking changes, and that delicate balance is about to be broken. The world is about to fall into the whirlpool of war, and the ninja who once thought it was going to disappear has reappeared, but it is different from the past.

Originally, the human race, who thought it was silent, began to fight back, even if it was no longer human, even if it became a parasite. However, it doesn't matter, the ** of the battle begins to burn in the whole world, the **oss that has been hidden in the darkness.

What is his purpose, I am afraid, I have long expected that the parasite, who was once a tool, will become his enemy. But what does it matter, anyway, everything is under your own control, and everything is proceeding in an orderly manner towards that ultimate goal.
