Raindrops poured down from the clouds, like the weeping of the dead in this land.

The hurried rain ninja walked on the streets, running around for a living, although there was no war now, but just to survive, they had already done their best.

This is the sorrow of the small village.

In a tavern on the side of the road, Nakanobi, a young man who had just completed an escort mission, was drinking pleasantly, and at the same time telling others what he had seen along the way.

"You know, the Fire Nation is completely different now, they've built a lot of roads so that four or five wagons can travel side by side."

The young man made an exaggerated gesture: "I heard that Konoha is still working on a car that can run without a horse, and where people from their country will go in the future, they don't have to walk on their legs." ”

"Liar..."

An elderly rain man subconsciously retorted: "To achieve this level, it must be a ninja who comes forward, is it possible that Konoha has stopped taking on the task?" ”

"I don't know about that."

The young ninja shook his head, "But the ordinary people there are really doing well, they have to work every day, I heard that the monarch killer has canceled the silver two transactions for the convenience of the people in the country, and has changed to use all kinds of bills. ”

As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper with a special pattern printed on it, "That's it, according to my client, such a small ticket can be exchanged for ten catties of rice, five catties of flour, and if it is salt, it can be exchanged for about two catties." ”

"Sounds weird."

Someone answered, "Could it be that the ninjas of Konoha have already given up their pride?" ”

"Who knows."

The young ninja took a sip of wine, "I've also heard that the Fire Nation is taking in refugees who can't survive outside, and providing them with food and housing. ”

"Lies! This must be a lie! ”

At first, the elder Yunin may have drunk too much, and slammed the cup on the table, making a muffled bang, "There can't be such a place!" ”

"Wouldn't you see for yourself?"

The young ninja spread his hands and said, "Anyway, as long as you don't violate the laws of the Fire Country, then you can live in it safely." ”

"Go check it out."

The older Yunin muttered to himself, and finally looked out the window, not knowing what he was thinking.

At the same time, inside the tallest building in Rain Ninja Village.

Payne sat in the main seat with an indifferent expression, Xiao Nan stood on the right, and below was the members of Uchiha Itachi and other Xiao.

"You already know the situation in Konoha, what exactly does that Hokage want to do?"

A deep voice rang out in Payne's mouth, drawing the crowd of people with different minds on the other side.

"I do know a little bit about that."

The dried persimmon ghost shark suffered a big loss last time, so it has been paying attention to the changes in the land of fire.

"Although it may seem like a joke, Konoha is indeed developing in the direction of peace under the leadership of the five generations."

"Peace? Hehehe..."

Kakudu laughed hoarsely, "That's ridiculous! ”

"It's true."

Uchiha Itachi spoke at the right time, "The fifth generation is very ambitious, and everything he does now is preparing for the future. ”

"What to prepare? Art? Only explosions are art! ”

Deidara, the spirit guy, chewed on the clay, and his words were a little out of bounds.

"None of that matters."

Payne was still immersed in his great plan at the moment, and he had a natural resistance to Konoha who suddenly became unfamiliar.

"There is still a year and a half left for the resurrection of the three tails, and during this period, continue to collect funds, Konoha's task is gone, let's just focus on Yunyin and Iwain."

"You are the leader, you have the final say."

As soon as he heard the word money, the horns immediately came to their senses.

"Bastard! It's been a long time since the Evil God has enjoyed a delicious sacrifice, can I go hunt in Konoha? ”

Fei Duan suddenly shouted, "Peace or something, it's just too annoying, but their soul evil god will definitely like it!" ”

The rest of the people didn't speak, Payne was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Now is not the time to provoke Konoha, Kakuto, take care of your partner." ”

"Who wants him to take care of..."

Burst!

Before Fei Duan could finish speaking, he was pierced through the chest by many black tubes.

He turned his head to look at him, and saw that the horns were looking at him with a gloomy face.

"Bastard! I'll kill you! Kill you! ”

There was another muffled sound, and this time the horns simply took off Feiduan's head, "Chief, I'll take him away first." ”

"Well, let's break up with the rest of the people."

A moment later, the hall, which had been very lively just a moment ago, became extremely quiet.

"I want to go and see..."

In silence, Xiao Nan suddenly spoke, "If it's really that kind of peace." ”

"As an angel of Rain Ninja Village, no one can limit you."

Payne said softly, "Actually, I'm also curious, what's going on there, let's go and see..."

Speaking of this, the two tacitly stopped talking.

But in their hearts, a thought came to mind.

If... If Yahiko is still here, I will definitely want to see this kind of place.

In the rain.

Uchiha Itachi stood outside a hole, cold raindrops lapping down his cheeks and finally sliding down his clothes to the ground.

"Mr. Itachi, if you get wet like this, you'll get sick."

As a partner, the dried persimmon ghost shark felt that he needed to say something.

"Oni, what do you think is the meaning of the existence of ninjas?"

Uchiha Itachi's voice was unusually confused.

"The question... It's hard to answer. ”

The dried persimmon ghost shark also walked out, "Is it because of Konoha's business?" That fifth generation seems to be much more reliable than our leader. ”

"Maybe..."

The Uchiha Itachi slowly turned around and walked towards the cave, "Although the blazing one can bring warmth, if you get too close, it will still burn."

I've lost that qualification. ”

"Not necessarily, Mr. Itachi."

The dried persimmon ghost shark turned his head and said, "Didn't you say before that people like us can only really see themselves clearly when death comes?"

It's too early to tell. ”

However, his words were not answered, and Uchiha Itachi seemed to be a little tired, and sat down at a distance from the fire, closing his eyes and not knowing what he was thinking.

The dried persimmon ghost shark didn't say anything more and stood alone in the rain.

The more people live in falsehood, the more they crave the truth, and the similar experiences of the two allow them to understand each other.

Living in darkness for so long that when you hear about the light that may appear, your first reaction is denial, resistance.

That's the saddest thing.

That person... Can you really do what he says?

Half a month later.

On the border of the Fire Country, a purple-haired woman sits in a carriage.

"It's really wide..."
