"That person, it's Sakumo Hachiki, right?"

"Yes, that's him."

"Humph! made such a big deal, and he could still teach his son ninjutsu so easily, I see, what the kid from the Shimura family said is true. ”

"If something really happens to Chenma, I must let this son of Qimu Shuomao experience the taste of losing his father's love!"

"Count me in, I still have a technique that was developed for those evil Uchiha back then, but before it was used, Lord Pillar formed an alliance with the Uchiha!"

"Just a few old bones, what can you do? I'm afraid I'll die in front of others before I can fight, so in my opinion, let's go find a monkey. The monkey has been taken care of so much by a thousand hands, and it is time to do something. ”

"Also, such evil deeds should be made public, and it is really despicable to actually calculate the people in their own village! Since the old man founded the village, he has not moved against the evil Uchi. ”

"Shhhh The more I think about it, the more angry I become, why did Lord Tsuruma reconcile with Uchiha so early? Otherwise, the old man will be able to kill a few more! ”

"The evil Uchiha, it's really shameless, Madara is such a person, and he is embarrassed to stay in the village."

In a training ground in the village, a group of old people suddenly came, some of them were on crutches, some were pacing slowly with cats on their waists, and some were even sitting in wheelchairs, but they were full of momentum, as if they were scolding young people.

Their topic attracted the attention of several ninjas who were training in the training ground, but soon as the topic of these old people shifted, they didn't dare to listen to it anymore.

This is not conducive to unity, these old men dare to speak, they dare not listen.

In the distance, Sakumo Hachiki, who was teaching his son, stopped, and Kakashi looked up at his father in confusion, wondering why his father stopped while talking.

Kakashi couldn't hear the voices of the old men in the distance now, but how could he not hear them.

He also recognized the identities of those people, they were the first batch of villagers, and in Konoha Village, there may be some houses and roads that they repaired with their own hands.

Although these people have lived away from the ninja for many years, and even their surnames are no longer used, every year, the high-ranking people in the village, represented by the Hokage, take time to visit.

They don't have the right to speak on the surface, but everyone who loves the village will have great respect for them, such as Qimu Shuomao himself.

Although the topic of these old people has long been deviated, just a few words, Qimu Shuomao knows why they are here.

Sakamoto Tatsuma thought of that young man, and a burst of guilt rose in Hachiki Sakumo's heart, he has been reflecting on it for the past few days, and the more he reflects, the more he feels like a bastard.

He wasn't the one who caused Tatsuma's serious injuries, but all of this had something to do with him.

At this time, hearing these people he respected in the past, he also misunderstood him and accused him, and the unprovoked, unprecedented sense of exhaustion filled Qimu Shuomao's body.

Over the years, he has felt physically exhausted, but never has he felt as exhausted mentally as he did today.

Because he always feels that what he does is good for the village, and for this, he never lacks the strength of his heart.

But this time. From the inside out, from himself to others, they are blaming themselves, and Sakumo Kiki really doesn't know how to comfort himself, because even he feels that he is wrong.

"Father, are you alright?"

Kakashi asked, looking down at his son, he thought that one day, such gossip would reach Kakashi's ears, and by that time.

His own son will spit on him.

As the captain, he failed to protect his teammates, and the completion of the task was actually exchanged for the safety of the team members. How ridiculous.

"Kakashi, dad still has some things, you can go back by yourself, okay?"

Hachiki told Kakashi that he didn't want Kakashi to follow him, as it would increase the likelihood that his son would hear the rumors.

Kakashi was puzzled, but nodded anyway and said, "I understand, father, then I'll go back first." ”

As he spoke, Kakashi retrieved the ninja equipment in the field, and left the training ground with his little short legs upside down, watching his son leave, and the already reluctant smile on Hachiki Sakushige's face finally stopped maintaining.

With a calm face, he walked towards the old men with a thousand hands, and when he saw that Qimu Shuomao actually dared to make a stinky face at them, one of the old men said:

"Yo, do you dare to blacken your face, do you want to kill us old guys?"

"Hahaha~ Anyway, the old man has long wanted to die, and every time he opens his eyes, he will have an extra day of pain."

These people, no one has this kind of fear in their hearts, even if they are so old that they can't stand still, they still have a brave heart.

Listening to their mockery, he did not stop his steps, and when he came to these people, he bowed deeply and said:

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have an inescapable responsibility in the matter of Tatsuma, and I will never shirk my responsibility. I promise that if something happens to Tatsuma, I will use the rest of my life to make all the murderers pay, including myself. ”

"What's the matter, are you going to Yunyin Village to kill Thunder Shadow?"

"No, no, no."

Qimu Shuomao replied decisively, and an old man rolled his eyes and said, "Hmph, it won't be to find a reason to leave the village and take refuge directly."

"Shut up."

At this time, another old man interrupted him, this old man looked at Qimu Shuomao, his messy and lengthy eyebrows trembled, and said, "Qimu Shuomao, the old man asks you a question, and you have to answer truthfully." ”

"Okay."

"The old man asked you, do you have even the slightest bit of the heart to harm Chenma?"

"Never."

Qimu Shuomao looked at the old man in a wheelchair and said very seriously, the old man nodded and said: "Since this is the case, then you don't need to apologize to us, it's normal to have casualties when you go on a mission." ”

"Old man in the shed, you"

The other old man frowned, and before he could continue, the shed said, "The monkey came to the old man yesterday, and he said that he trusted you, and also said that Tatsuma has always regarded you as a teacher, and you will not do anything bad to them. ”

As he spoke, he looked at the former siblings around him and said, "Don't forget, what Madame said to us before leaving, this matter will be decided when Tsunade and Tatsuma come back."

Also, don't you think it's strange? We are the ones who are far away from the center of the village, so why do others not know about these things, but some people want to tell us this? ”

Being reminded by the shed, the faces of the other old people also changed several times, and one of them looked at Qimu Shuomao and said, "Today's business will end here."

If it's just an accident, we will all accept it, but if Tsunade and Tatsuma come back and let the old man know that you deceived us, then the old man will spit on you in the Pure Land when he dies! Ahem~"

After speaking, he coughed violently, but Qimu Shuomao's face was no longer so gloomy, he straightened up, and said: "If I have half a point of deception, I should apologize for my seppuku and work hard for you to supervise." ”

"Hmph, although the old man is old, he still has the strength to make mistakes, so it's best not to have that day."

The old man in the crowd who was in the best state and could stand upright without the help of external force also stared at Qimu Shuomao, and Qimu Shuomao nodded.

At this time, the wheelchair-bound shack said again: "Qimu Shuomao, if you are dedicated to the village, then don't be defeated, what kind of you are most useful to the village, you yourself know." ”

Several hints in and out of the shed made Qimu Shuomao react, and he nodded again and said, "Thank you." ”

At this time, the others also came back to their senses, and someone asked: "Shed, you mean, we are covered"

"When the gun is used."

The other person followed up, and there was no reply in the shed, but everyone's faces became gloomy, just like the flag wood Shuo Mao just now, and anger appeared on the old faces.

Just when someone couldn't hold back their anger and wanted to say something, Tanama was the first to speak: "Say, this matter will be decided when Tsunade and Tatsuma come back, we left the ninja circle decades ago, and this shouldn't be our business." ”

was interrupted, and the rest of the people were a little dissatisfied, but thinking about it, they also knew that no matter how they handled it, it was not appropriate, and they could only leave it to the person who could really represent the thousand hands to solve it.

Seeing that everyone's faces were very ugly, and he knew that he shouldn't stay to be an eyesore, he saluted again and said, "Everyone, then I will leave first." ”

"Well, go ahead."

The shed waved his hand, then turned the direction of the wheelchair and said, "We should go back too, some people want us to say something that we shouldn't say, since we have said it, then this matter has nothing to do with us."

Stop talking. ”

Hearing the emphasis of the last sentence in the shed, the rest of the people nodded and helped each other to leave.

Far away outside the Land of Fire, on the sea in the middle of the Land of Water, two figures appeared.

Tatsuma swept a little drop of water on his head and looked at the vast sea, which is the most likely to make people lose their sense of direction.

However, according to the time and the direction of the sun, it can be judged somewhat, Tatsuma observed for a while, and then pointed in one direction and said, "Teacher, that is the direction of the country of vortex." ”

Tsunade nodded, and then asked, "Well, didn't you learn to fly the god of thunder?" Can't you take me with me~ and go back? Just like the last time you saved it? ”

Chenma was a little embarrassed and said, "Teacher, my perception range is not that far, at least I have to wait until I return to the Fire Country, so that I can quickly return to the village according to the Flying Thunder Divine Technique I left behind." ”

Tatsuma misses the state in the immortal mode yesterday, if it was in the immortal mode, he might really be able to cross this far and perceive the Flying Thunder Divine Technique left in Apo.

With that as his first stop, it was not difficult to get back to the village quickly, but now that he was in the middle of the sea, he couldn't sense that far.

Tsunade pursed the corners of his lips and said, "It seems that your cultivation is still not enough." ”

"Teacher, if you had left the spiritism at that time, we wouldn't have to bother."

"Are you blaming me?!"

"Nope! You didn't spend any more time on spiritism because you saved me. ”

"That's pretty much it."

Tsunade raised his fist, then put it down, and said, "Let's go." ”

"Okay."

Tatsuma nodded, and began to lead the way in front, and the Tsunade who followed Tatsuma was a little surprised, because Tatsuma's speed was getting faster and faster, not like the level he should have.

After running for a long time, Tatsuma suddenly stopped, squatted, and poked his right hand into the sea, and Tsunade asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?" ”

"There are quite a few ninjas in front, not like Konoha ninjas."
