Chapter 231: A New Prophecy
The land of birds.
Sakura Haruno and Momiji Kiriya went to Konoha to visit the door, leaving the two shadow clones to stay at home.
Sakura Haruno didn't have much to do, and it happened that the weather was pretty good today, so she started to take a long time to recliner again.
However, her leisure time did not last long, because an acquaintance came to her door.
"Aster, long time no see." Sakura Haruno smiled faintly.
Yes, the person who came was the shrine maiden Aster of the Oni Country, and Sakura Haruno hadn't seen her for ten years.
Aster frowned slightly, looked behind Haruno Sakura, and said, "I've been here several times, but I haven't seen your figure." ”
Sakura Haruno smiled, turned around and led her into the door, and said as she walked: "I haven't been at home for the past few years, and I just came back, so you are lucky to meet me." ”
"It's not luck, I came to you when I knew you were back." Aster shook her head slightly and said.
Sakura Haruno was slightly stunned, turned to look at her suspiciously, and asked, "How do you know?" ”
Hearing this, Aster's face became very complicated, and she struggled for a while before she said, "My prophecy has been triggered." ”
Sakura Haruno raised her eyebrows, thought for a while, and said, "It seems that the situation is not the same as I thought, come with me first, sit down and talk." ”
Sakura Haruno's hunch told her that she was going to be in trouble.
Sakura Haruno took Aster to the living room, let the tailed beasts go to a cool place to stay, and sat down with Aster in the living room.
"Where's Momiji?" Aster asked, looking around.
"She has something to do, and it's inconvenient to come out for the time being, so just tell me." Sakura Haruno said with a smile.
Kiriya Momiji is doing the necessary daily sword meditation, and during this period, try not to disturb her.
Aster nodded slightly, her eyes staring at Haruno Sakura, her expression becoming solemn.
"Sakura-chan, have you been fighting lately?" Aster asked with a serious face.
Sakura Haruno's eyes narrowed slightly, concentrated on twelve points of spirit, nodded and said, "Indeed, what's wrong?" ”
"Don't go, you'll die if you go!" Aster said solemnly.
Sakura Haruno suddenly raised her head, looked directly at Aster with a sharp gaze, and asked, "What do you mean?" ”
"I see you being pierced in the back, but I don't see what that person looks like." Aster frowned and said in a deep voice.
"My prophetic ability hasn't been triggered since ten years ago, until two days ago, I suddenly saw a red-haired man die through his heart, I'm not sure if it's you, so I'm here to confirm."
"I thought I wouldn't see you this time like the previous times, but ......"
Aster's voice was a little low, this kind of fate that predicted her death, she thought it had ended ten years ago, but she didn't expect it to appear again.
Sakura Haruno rubbed her forehead, and after thinking for a while, she asked, "Is there any specific information?" Like the scene, the gender of that person, and so on. ”
Aster frowned, closed her eyes and thought about it, and said with some uncertainty: "The scene seems to be on a barren red earth, my perspective is in front of you, you are pierced by someone, looking at your stomach in surprise, and I can only see one hand of the person behind you, and I can't judge the gender." ”
"Isn't there anyone else around?" Sakura Haruno asked with a frown.
"No, at least not from my point of view." Aster shook her head slightly and said.
Aster's prophecy has always been only a fragment of death, and there will be no cause and effect, and if it is not for the moment of personal arrival, there is no telling what the situation is.
"Sakura-chan, if you have a plan to fight in the near future, you might as well give up first, my prophecy is only valid for one month at most, and I will wait until this month has passed." Aster looked at Sakura Haruno seriously and said.
"Well, don't be nervous." Sakura Haruno smiled and said, "Prophecy can also be changed, you know this, don't you?" ”
Saying that, Sakura Haruno poured a cup of tea for Aster, pushed it over and said with a smile: "Anyway, thank you for coming to tell me that I will be vigilant." ”
"What is so important? It's really going to die! Seeing Sakura's indifferent attitude, Aster's tone became a little excited.
"War is coming." Sakura Haruno said calmly.
Aster's face froze, she looked up at Sakura Haruno and asked, "What did you say?" ”
"Remember the Great Ninja War ten years ago?" Sakura Haruno asked lightly.
"Hmm." Aster nodded slightly, that war was not so easy to be forgotten by the world.
"In fact, there are many follow-up problems in that war, and I have been trying to solve them for the past ten years." Sakura Haruno said calmly, picking up the teacup and pouring herself a cup of tea.
"Half a month later, the final war is coming, this war is brought on by me, and it is impossible for me to avoid this battle."
Aster was silent, silently staring at the teacup on the table, speechless for a long time.
After a long time, Aster whispered, "Did Sakura already foresee that she might die in battle?" ”
"No battle is 100% winnable." Sakura Haruno shook her head with a smile and continued, "But I really didn't think I'd die, and if you hadn't come and told me, I wouldn't have even been prepared. ”
"Anyway, Aster, thank you so much for coming here and telling me."
Aster fell silent again, she was in pain, she didn't know what to do to get Sakura Haruno to ask for the curse of the prophecy.
"Okay, Aster, I haven't seen you for so long, don't think about these unhappy things, anyway, I'll pay attention to myself." Haruno Sakura smiled, patted Aster's hand, and then stretched out her head and whispered, "Don't tell Momiji about this matter yet, I'll handle it myself." ”
Aster glanced at Sakura Haruno with a complicated expression, nodded slightly, and replied, "Hmm." ”
Haruno Sakura squinted and laughed when she heard this, stepped back and sat down, and said, "Let's talk about happy things, for example, have you ever married?" ”
Aster looked stunned when she heard this, then shook her head violently, looked at Haruno Sakura sincerely, and said with some excitement: "No! ”
Haruno Sakura was slightly stunned, a little confused, thought about it, and said with a smile: "You seem to be more than a year older than me, almost thirty." ”
Although I don't understand why, it's right to joke now, and first liven up the atmosphere.
"It's not because of ......" Aster said, looking at Haruno Sakura's confused expression, he struggled for a while, and finally sighed, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I'm too lazy to say this." ”
"Huh? What's wrong with me? "Sakura Haruno is a little inexplicable, and there is always a feeling of being discriminated against.
"Nothing, I don't want to say it." Aster turned her head and snorted softly.
"Alright then, forget it." Sakura Haruno nodded in response on the spot.
"You ......" Aster was a little angry, this guy can't talk to each other!
"Me? What's wrong with me? Sakura Haruno asked strangely, you said you didn't want to say, I obeyed your wishes, what else do you want?
"Humph!" Aster snorted angrily, stood up and said, "I'm going back." ”
"Let's go? What are you going back for? Sakura Haruno stood up and asked suspiciously.
"Didn't someone say there was going to be a war, I'll go back and gather men!" Aster turned her head and said lightly.
"Oh, well, I'll send you." Sakura Haruno nodded, this is indeed a big deal, and she should go back.
Aster turned her head expressionlessly and stared carefully at Sakura Haruno's expression to make sure that this person really didn't understand or was playing tricks on her.
"What's wrong again?" Sakura Haruno asked helplessly.
Aster was powerless to support her forehead, she knew, this guy was really stupid in this regard, no, stupid!
"It's nothing, let's go, you just send me to the door." Aster sighed and turned to walk outside.
Although Sakura Haruno still had doubts in her heart, her intuition told her not to ask too much, just keep up.
When she arrived at the door, Aster turned around and solemnly said to Sakura Haruno, "Sakura-chan, you must be careful, it's best to give up this operation." ”
"I know, I'll be on my toes." Sakura Haruno said with a smile.
Aster glared at her angrily, this guy's attitude really made her feel uneasy.
Then, she took a deep breath, stretched out her arms, and said with a slightly red face, "Before leaving, hug me." ”
"Why?" Sakura Haruno looked at her strangely.
"Why do you talk so much, let you hug you." Aster glared at her and said angrily.
"Okay." Sakura Haruno nodded casually and generously gave Aster a hug.
Aster leaned on Haruno Sakura's shoulder, felt the breath of Haruno Sakura, let out a long breath, and closed her eyes.
"Sakura-chan, definitely, definitely not to die."
Haruno Sakura's heart was calm, her face was calm like water, and she said in a deep voice: "I won't die, don't worry." ”
"Hmm."
Aster gently pushed Haruno Sakura away, smiled at her, waved her hand, and her unique holy light appeared on her body, and said, "Then I'll go back first." ”
"Well, it won't be long before Konoha will propose a war plan at the Five Shadows Conference, you can refer to it." Sakura Haruno said with a smile.
"Is it with Sakura?" Aster asked.
"Hmm."
"Then I'll take care of it, goodbye."
"Goodbye."
……
Sending the aster away, Sakura Haruno let out a sigh of relief, stood at the door and pondered for a long time before turning back and walking back to the house.
On the way, she rubbed her face to make her face less stiff.
Just halfway through the rubbing, a figure appeared in front of her, and when she looked up, it was Kiritani Momiji.
"Who's coming?" Kiriya Momiji asked softly.
"It's aster." Sakura Haruno said with a smile.
"It's her." Kiriya Momiji frowned slightly, and he was very wary of aster.
"What is she doing here?"
"She came to talk to me, I heard that she has been here a few times before, why haven't you told me." Sakura Haruno said as she walked inside.
"It's not important." Kiritani Momiji said lightly.
"It's a friend anyway, she said she ran several times, and I was a little embarrassed." Sakura Haruno shook her head slightly and sat down on the table in the living room.
"You said you were going to hide in the ninja world." Kiritani Momiji said as she helped Haruno Sakura clean up the table and pour out the tea that Aster hadn't drunk before.
"That's right." Sakura Haruno smiled and took a sip from her teacup.
"By the way, Momiji, I kept forgetting to ask you, don't you have any wishes or something?" Sakura Haruno asked suddenly.
"Huh?" Kiritani Momiji glanced up at her and asked, "Why do you suddenly ask that?" ”
"It's just a whim." Sakura Haruno smiled, put down the teacup, and continued, "You see, I was originally just thinking about surviving and then getting stronger. ”
"Later, in order to survive, he began to deal with Xiao, and inexplicably became the so-called savior."
"My current idea is to level the ninja world, not forever, but at least bring peace to the ninja world for a while."
"After that, I want to come back here again, lying on the recliner every day, waiting for time to pass and grow old."
"What about you, do you have any ideas?" Sakura Haruno asked with a smile.
Kiritani Momiji shook his head slightly and said, "I don't have any ideas." ”
"Is it like this since childhood? Is there anything you wanted to do when you were a child? Sakura Haruno continued to ask.
Kiritani Momiji pondered for a while and said, "When I was a child, I wanted to be the number one in the world of swordsmanship, and now I have almost achieved it." ”
"Later, I wanted to avenge my family and fulfill my family's long-cherished wish, and now I have also fulfilled it."
"Later, because I met you, my plans for the rest of my life were disrupted, and I didn't have anything to do."
As he spoke, Kiritani Momiji raised his head, stared at Haruno Sakura, and asked, "What's wrong with you?" How do you feel like there's something on your mind? ”
"It's nothing, it just feels like time flies." Sakura Haruno shook her head and sighed.
"Unconsciously, more than ten years have passed, and what I have always wanted to do has come to an end, and I feel a little emotional."
"Are you scared?" Kiritani Momiji suddenly spoke. Although it was a question, the tone seemed to be determined.
"Me? Have you ever seen a time when I'm scared? Sakura Haruno smiled and asked rhetorically.
"Sakura, I've seen your acting skills since I first met you, and you can fool others, but you can't fool me." Kiritani Momiji shook his head slightly and said.
"If you want me to give you an example, there are many times when you are afraid, but you will forcibly cover it with a smile, such as when you faced Uchiha Itachi, when you faced Terumi in the Fog Hidden Village, when you faced Madara Uchiha, ......"
"Stop, stop." Sakura Haruno stretched out her hand to stop, and Momiji Kiritani stopped talking and looked at her.
"Really, when will Momiji not be so sharp." Sakura Haruno said helplessly.
Kiriya Momiji didn't say anything, just looked at Sakura Haruno calmly, waiting for her to give an explanation.
"Actually, it's not that I'm really scared, it's just that I have a vague sense of foreboding." Sakura Haruno said with a sigh.
"This time, I will do the things of Blue Star and the ninja world together, theoretically there is no problem, Blue Star needs to be smoothly unified, and the ninja world needs high pressure of war, which is very reasonable."
"But I always had a sense of foreboding, as if something I had forgotten."
Kiriya Momiji frowned slightly, if Sakura Haruno was telling the truth, then this matter was not a simple pre-war phobia.
At this level, they are very sensitive to things like premonitions, and generally speaking, if they have an ominous premonition, basically something big will happen.
