In the bedroom.
Ino and Kurotsuchi did not rush back to their bedrooms. Instead, they came to Bai Yu and Naruto's bedrooms, casually pulling out the chairs placed under the desk and sitting down.
Ino sat on the chair, turned around, looked out the clear glass window, staring at the darkness brought by the storm. For a moment, she looked at Bai Yu who was sitting on the bed, and asked curiously:
"Bai Yu, I can see that you want to help Gaara, right?"
When Naruto and Kurotsuchi heard Ino talking about this, they immediately sat on the edge of the bed and calmed down.
Bai Yu looked around the three of them and suddenly chuckled:
"Yes and no. If I help him personally, if I fail to grasp the scale, I may directly harm them. Instead of me getting involved, it is better to let things develop freely and act as a bystander."
Ino nodded and smiled:
"I understand. It's no wonder that although you are very good to Naruto, you don't give him the greatest help in everything and indulge him."
Naruto grinned.
Bai Yu replied: "That's right."
hehe……
For Sasuke and Naruto, it is actually the same. Now these two guys have not been brought on the right track by him.
One is practicing with Orochimaru in Uchiha, and the other is following Jiraiya and is about to travel to the ninja world and practice in the outside world.
"But the battle between the internal forces of the ninja villages...is no easier than the war in the ninja world."
Ino felt worried for Bai Yu and continued to ask:
"What if those guys we met just now are desperate to deal with Gaara and the others?"
Bai Yu shrugged and smiled, "That's not something we can interfere with. After all, this is Sunagakure. Applying some pressure from the outside is already the limit of what I can do."
Ino immediately nodded without saying anything.
Kurotsuchi took advantage of his grandfather Onoki's absence, and ideas suddenly popped up in his head, and he asked with a happy smile:
"Bai Yu, Ino, what are you going to do after Granny Chiyo's funeral is over?"
In fact, this sentence.
There was only one person Kurotsuchi wanted to ask, and that was Bai Yu, but due to Ino's presence, it would not be very polite not to ask, and besides, his thoughts would be exposed.
But the smart Ino didn't know what Kurotsuchi was thinking, but she didn't know the "master-servant" relationship between Kurotsuchi and Bai Yu.
After all, no matter how you think about it, it is impossible to imagine that Kurotsuchi, who is harmless to humans and animals and has a distinguished status, will be Bai Yu's personal maid.
Naruto, who was lying on the bed, felt that he was being ignored, and immediately said, "Huh? Why don't you ask me?"
Kurotsuchi sat on the chair, raised his hand and scratched his head, smiled awkwardly and said, "Sorry, Naruto, what are you going to do?"
Saying that, Kurotsuchi looked at Ino and Bai Yu, she wanted to know Bai Yu's whereabouts.
But he didn't expect Naruto to speak first:
"Haha, I definitely want to follow everyone back to Konoha, and then start my genin life in advance. I must grow up step by step, and finally become Hokage, but... before that, I also want to fight with Sasuke. One..."
Naruto spoke in detail about his plan.
Kurotsuchi, who had been listening to Naruto's explanation attentively, suddenly darkened his face and regretted having just asked Naruto this question.
….
Subsequently.
Kurotsuchi's ears directly filtered out Naruto's voice, and he looked at Ino and Bai Yu excitedly again.
Ino smiled and said:
"I definitely have to go back to Konoha Village. After I graduate in a few months, I can start my genin career. What about you, Kurotsuchi?"
Bai Yu and Ino looked at Kurotsuchi who was the first to answer this question.
Kurotsuchi chuckled and said, "I want to go to the Uchiha Ninja Village. When Bai Yu arrives, you have to entertain me well!"
Bai Yu: "..."
I must treat you well.
So I didn’t go back.
Cleaning work in the big house at home,
There is also some furniture maintenance work, but it is all your fault.
certainly.
In advance, you are still willing to come back as a maid.
Bai Yu smiled in his heart.
This guy probably won't go back to being his maid. After all, the title of the Princess of Iwagakure Village has been restored, and it's impossible for her to do such a derogatory job again.
Ino covered her mouth and smiled, and replied, "Will Tsuchikage-sama let you go?"
Kurotsuchi said excitedly: "Of course, my grandfather and I have already agreed. After all, I have never been out of the Ninja Village since I was a child. This time I go out to see the world!"
Bai Yu then smiled and said, "Well, I will entertain you well then."
"What about you?" Kurotsuchi looked at Bai Yu and asked with a smile, "After leaving Sunagakure, will you continue to pursue Bai Zetsu?"
Bai Yu nodded and said:
"I have to continue wandering in the ninja world. I won't tell you the specific tasks I need to perform. When you reach my stage, you will be able to assist me. Then you will know what I am busy with every day."
Kurotsuchi felt a little disappointed and said with a smile:
"All right!"
After Naruto, who was counting his plans in detail, heard Bai Yu's answer, he immediately fell down on the bed and wailed: "There is still a long way to go to reach your level!"
Ino also felt frustrated because of his lack of ability.
Bai Yu smiled and said, "Naruto, you can help me if you become Hokage."
As soon as Naruto heard the word "Hokage", the fighting spirit in his heart was instantly ignited, he clenched his fists and said firmly:
"Yes, Naruto, don't worry Bai Yu, I will keep working hard until I catch up with you."
Ino looked at the simple clock hanging on the wall. The sky outside the window was dark and gloomy, and the crazy storm continued.
moment.
Ino looked away and breathed a sigh of relief, but still said with some melancholy: "I hope the storm will be lighter tomorrow."
Bai Yu nodded. In fact, he had a way to control the weather, but it was not necessary.
At this moment, all forces in Sand Hidden are in turmoil, undercurrents are surging, and the situation is treacherous.
Even if the weather is sunny.
Bai Yu will not take Ino to visit Sunagakure, and the scenery of Sunagakure is not as beautiful as Konoha.
The sky is full of yellow sand and loess. No matter how amazing the desert scenery is for the first time, it will quickly cause visual fatigue.
As for taking Ino to play.
Wait for the ninja world to be stable.
He could take her out whenever he wanted.
The current ninja world is in chaos.
Even though he has begun to promote the formation of the ninja coalition, as Kira said, the major ninja villages still have to elect a commander.
….
Bai Yu didn't care who the commander of the ninja coalition was in the end, as long as he and Uchiha couldn't be restricted from what they wanted to do, he would let the Raikage and the others do what they wanted.
The commander-in-chief is only a commander-in-chief in name only.
But the current pressure from the Xiao organization seems to be almost meaningless in Bai Yu's eyes.
In the original book, the Raikage furiously agreed to the establishment of the Ninja Alliance. This decision was made after Sasuke kidnapped the Eight-Tails tail and caused a five-kage meeting with great arrogance.
In order to promote the unity of the ninja world.
Bai Yu hopes that the Akatsuki organization will be more organized and prosperous. Of course, the premise is that things are not beyond his control. Otherwise, even if the ninja world unites and the difficulties cannot be solved, it will be in vain.
"It's getting late too."
Ino stood up and pulled Kurotsuchi along, looked at Naruto who was already lying on the bed and fell asleep, and said softly: "Baiyu, you are tired too, have a good rest, and we will have dinner together in the evening."
Bai Yu nodded on behalf of Naruto who was already asleep, and then stood up to see Ino and Kurotsuchi away.
…
…
the next day.
early morning.
It seems that he sensed the atmosphere of Sunagakure Village at this time. After the storm, only the patter of rain was left for Sunagakure.
light rain and opportunely cloudy days.
The black clouds are like ink poured out unevenly.
It seems like the heavy rain will happen again.
Sunagakure Village has the highest standards. In the cemetery where all the Kazekages are buried, a group of Sunagakure ninjas are lined up neatly.
Every Sunagakure watched Chiyo's burial with a heavy heart, bidding farewell to the old man who stood up to guide the way in Sunagakure's darkest hour.
Directly ahead of the funeral procession.
Bai Yu and others were wearing black dresses, holding white chrysanthemums for commemoration in their hands, and let the light rain pass over their faces.
Everyone watched directly as Chiyo's coffin was buried in the loess. In the end, the only thing left that represented Chiyo's presence in this world was the dark and square tombstone.
Bai Yu observed his surroundings keenly.
We found Raikage, who represented Kumogakure in the guest sequence, and Darui, who was Ai's right-hand man.
Lei Ying noticed that someone was watching him, and immediately raised his head to look for this gaze.
After Ai Zai saw Bai Yu, his dark face immediately became complicated, but he still nodded.
Bai Yu nodded slightly and looked away. He originally thought that Ai would arrange Kirabi by his side. After all, the risk of him leaving Kirabi Yunyin had soared.
But it can also be seen from this aspect that Ai trusts Kirabi's strength.
Bai Yu gathered his thoughts and stopped thinking about these things. After the funeral, a conference was bound to be held in the five major ninja villages. Of course, he represented both Uchiha and Kirigakure.
The front of the team.
Temari and Kankuro burst into tears, only Gaara looked sad.
As the funeral ends.
The three of them placed the flowers in their hands in front of the tombstone.
"Ugh..."
Temari put down the flowers in her hands and looked at the epitaph engraved on the tombstone. After choking, tears mixed with rain trickled down.
Ebizo, who was standing to the right of his sister's tombstone, was also feeling heavy sadness, but he forced a smile on his face. He smiled at the three children Temari, Gaara, and Kankuro:
"Don't be so sad. You are all my sister's children. She doesn't want to see you crying on this day."
Ebizo helped Temari up and looked at Gaara, whose tears rolled in his eye sockets several times before finally falling. He raised his hand and patted his shoulder, and then sighed softly:
….
"Go back and rest early. There are more difficult challenges waiting for you."
Gaara dragged his tired body, turned around, reluctantly looked back at Chiyo's tombstone, and immediately erected the ideal in his heart.
He was born in Sunagakure.
Sunagakure gave him a second life.
for the rest of the time.
Gaara will dedicate all of himself to this country left in the desert by the ninja world.
The last part of the funeral progressed as time passed, and finally it was Bai Yu's turn to lay flowers.
Jiraiya, Bai Yu, Ohnoki, Kakashi, Naruto, Ino, and Kurotsuchi took turns coming to Chiyo's tombstone to mourn.
Jiraiya put down the flowers in his hand and remained silent, with a trace of sadness flashing in his eyes.
This old senior was a contemporary of his master, and attending her funeral somewhat reminded him of his master.
Bai Yu put the flowers behind Jiraiya and put them in his hands. He looked down at the loess under his feet that was about to be turned into desert, and sighed in his heart:
"We may meet again, so if anything, let's talk about it when the time comes. In the end, no one knows the future of Sunagakure, just like the future of the ninja world."
After all, Bai Yu can't guarantee it.
Will Yakushi Kabuto and Orochimaru, who have been naturalized by him, finally embark on the path of studying hard for reincarnation in the filthy land?
Who can say?
Bai Yu didn't want to care about the moral bottom line of those two guys. After all, he couldn't control it. The Third Hokage couldn't control Orochimaru back then.
Just in case someday.
Kabuto Yakushi is still on the same path, and it is not impossible for Qianyo to emerge from the dirty soil.
After all, no matter what.
Chiyo was also one of the top ninjas in the ninja world from World War II to World War III.
Bai Yu turned and left.
Onoki lamented and came forward, placed the flowers here, looked at the tombstone, and said with a wry smile:
"I'm so much older than you, and I haven't left yet... Haha... Well, although I hated you before, now that you are gone one by one, it still makes me feel a little bit reluctant to leave, ugh..."
Kakashi, who was following Ohnoki, looked up at the dark clouds, letting the rain wet his mask, and his originally flowing hair sank on both sides.
He really didn't like this feeling.
But this is his daily life.
No matter it's windy or rainy, working or resting, Kakashi will take time every day to go to Konoha's monument or cemetery to meet his master, his wife, and his close friends.
This is a disguised way of atonement for him to still be alive. Only in this way can the accumulated pain over the years slowly dissolve and let him get out of his gloomy mood.
It was Kakashi's turn to lay flowers. He stood at the tombstone for more than ten seconds. After bowing slightly, he left an apology for his father and turned around to follow Ohnoki away.
then.
Ino, Kurotsuchi, and Naruto presented flowers in turn.
When Naruto came to the tombstone and saw Chiyo's name, he felt that the name was very familiar for some reason, but it was obvious that he had only met Chiyo's mother-in-law a few times in Konoha.
Didn't think much about it.
After Naruto finished mourning, he turned and left.
Cemetery aisle.
Bai Yu, Jiraiya and others walked side by side, and everyone was immersed in sorrow.
Only Bai Yu looked around, observing the scale of the funeral and other circumstances.
This time Chiyo's funeral was carried out with Kage-level specifications. In addition to all the Sunagakure ninjas who came to mourn, there were also Sunagakure people who took the initiative to come to mourn.
Judging from the queue of people queuing at the entrance to the cemetery.
You know that Chiyo is indeed loved by everyone in Sunagakure.
Not only that.
This time, the guests from outside the village include the acting Hokage of Konoha, the Third Tsuchikage of Iwagakure, the Enokage of Uchiha, and the Raikage of Kumogakure. This kind of funeral standard is a treatment that the previous generations of Kazekage have never received.
Although these top bosses came to mourn Chiyo because they met by chance, they were here after all, and they came with a heavy heart.
"Lovable Immortal, we have already attended the funeral. When shall we go back?"
Seeing that the atmosphere in the team was a bit depressing, Naruto decisively asked what he wanted to ask, hoping to liven up the atmosphere.
Kakashi also cast a glance.
Although he knows.
After the funeral of Granny Chiyo, the major ninja villages will definitely hold a meeting in Sunagakure, but they also want to know the exact time.
Jiraiya smiled bitterly:
"It's still early to go back, don't worry, Naruto, the weather has improved now. You can follow Bai Yu around Sunagakure. We still have some important things to solve."
Naruto immediately looked at Bai Yu.
Bai Yu nodded, indicating that there were indeed important matters that needed to be resolved.
