Twelve Xiaoqiang were also preparing for the upcoming mission during this time. This dinner party relieved their tense nerves.
night.
Konoha.
The lights on the left and right sides of the street are bright, and there are still many pedestrians, highlighting the prosperity of this former No. 1 shinobi village.
Sasuke stayed at Sakura's house.
Bai Yu and other Xiaoqiang strolled down the street.
This feeling.
It made Bai Yu feel very familiar.
once Upon a time.
When he was still in Konoha Ninja School, he was just emerging in Konoha, and besides Sasuke, Neji and others, he was surrounded by other Xiaoqiang.
Time flies.
In a blink of an eye.
So many years have passed.
Bai Yu couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly as he looked at the mature friends around him. He was not worried about the subsequent experience of the Twelve Xiaoqiang.
"I'm so full! Hey, are we going to walk all the way back like this?"
After Ino finished speaking softly, she looked at Bai Yu beside her. She had practiced all day and spent a lot of energy laughing and joking with her friends in the evening. She seemed a little sleepy at the moment.
Bai Yu glanced at his friends around him again. The other Xiaoqiang had also undergone intense training these days, and their faces could not hide their fatigue.
"I'll take you back!"
Bai Yu smiled.
"Can I ride that magical space gate again?" Tiantian said excitedly: "It's great!"
"Everyone is tired tonight. Go back and rest early. We will find a chance to have dinner together next time!"
As Bai Yu spoke, he opened the door to space behind him, glanced at his friends around him, and said with a smile:
"Just send Hinata and Hanabi back first!"
Finished.
Everyone was sucked into the space door and disappeared in place.
When he reappeared, Bai Yu had already brought Xiaoqiang to the Hyuga tribe.
"Thank you, brother Bai Yu!"
Hanabi smiled obediently.
Hinata and Neji also expressed their thanks.
"Get some rest early!" After Bai Yu said that, he took the rest of Xiaoqiang and escaped into the door of space again.
The entrance to the Hyuga clan.
Neji did not stay long at the door of the clan family. After saying polite words to his two cousins, he headed towards the branch's territory.
Hanabi stayed where she was, her face full of worries.
if it is possible.
She also wanted to follow Bai Yu, whether it was listening to stories or chatting.
pity.
too many people.
Lots of words.
Hanabi was too embarrassed to speak.
"Isn't the atmosphere pretty good?" Hinata said to her sister with a smile.
What she fears most is that her sister stays in the clan every day and becomes afraid of social interaction.
Fortunately, judging from the performance of Hanabi and other Xiaoqiang Jilaishu and Sheniu today.
Hinata felt that Hanabi was more suitable for social situations than her shy self.
"I really like this feeling of everyone coming together. Sister, is this what you have been pursuing?"
Hanabi asked curiously.
Hinata shook her head, raised her hand to smooth the ends of her hair, and said with a smile: "Yes, I used to always think about how to catch up with everyone, but now I find that no matter how I catch up, it is impossible to catch up. However, no one abandoned me, which feels so good!"
Hanabi smiled, looking extremely relaxed. Being with that group of people, her sister was far happier than in the family.
For Hanabi, who likes her sister.
This is enough.
The two began to talk about the story Bai Yu told them in the afternoon. With joy on their faces, they walked into the Hyuga clan together.
far away.
In the corridor of the wooden house, Rizu looked at his two daughters who had returned happily, and the corners of his mouth slowly raised, revealing a smile.
…
Immediately afterwards.
Bai Yu began to send the others back. It was great to have the door to space. You could go wherever you wanted!
period.
Naruto followed Bai Yu's previous words and gave many of the fish he caught in the river to Shino.
He also tentatively asked Ya, and got the reply that Akamaru only eats dog food produced by the family.
But Shino really caught all the fish and thanked Naruto very much.
Some of the bugs he raised that did not yet rely on swallowing chakra needed a large amount of food every day.
Naruto was able to help his friends do something, and he was very happy to be needed.
"Haha, Shino, from now on I will catch fish and eat the fish heads!"
Naruto said righteously.
Shino didn't understand what Naruto meant by saying this, and immediately asked: "So?"
"I'll give it to you for the rest of my life!"
Naruto burst out laughing, causing everyone to look at him.
"Uh, isn't this a joke funny?" Naruto asked, dumbfounded.
I saw that everyone couldn't understand what Naruto wanted to express.
Amid Naruto's not-so-funny joke, Bai Yu sent the others home one after another.
at last.
Bai Yu sent Ino home, but Haiyi was still not at home tonight.
The interior of the Yamanaka Flower Shop is empty.
During the day these days, the business of the flower shop is being looked after by members of the Shanzhong clan.
Ino and Haiichi don't have time to take care of the flower shop.
"Are you leaving Konoha tonight?"
Ino sat at the coffee table in the hall and said reluctantly.
She was already very sleepy.
But thinking that Bai Yu was leaving soon, he suddenly became energetic again.
Once Bai Yu comes back, Ino will become dependent on him, even if he only comes back for two days.
"Well, I'll wait for you to finish."
Bai Yu smiled.
"Okay, wait until I fall asleep before leaving!" Ino smiled freely.
Ino didn't force it, she knew what kind of heavy burden Bai Yu carried on his shoulders.
Before the ninja world has settled down.
The pain of separation that Bai Yu has to endure is not much weaker than hers.
"Okay." Bai Yu had no objection to this.
He had been busy with the Ninja Alliance for several days, and it was time to go back and continue to monitor the outside of the Ninja World, waiting for Otsutsuki's arrival.
After Ino heated up the hot water and finished washing, Bai Yu also went to wash up. After that, he went to Ino's bedroom as usual and watched her sleep sweetly.
Bai Yu glanced at the clock hanging on the wall. It was only 9pm.
Ino was really exhausted during this time.
Bai Yu made sure that she entered a deep sleep, and then released the green healing chakra to completely sweep away Ino's fatigue, allowing her to enjoy a sleep like a baby.
Finish these.
Bai Yu then used chakra to expel all the mosquitoes in the room, and placed a chakra barrier around the entire room to prevent mosquitoes.
So far.
He then opened the door to space, escaped into it, and disappeared into the flower shop in the mountains.
…
Sakura's house, second floor balcony.
Sasuke sat opposite Sakura, looking at the night sky from time to time, wondering what he was thinking.
At this time, the two of them were sitting on the extremely cool balcony watching the night view.
Sakura looked at Sasuke from time to time, admiring his handsome face.
She liked this quiet feeling very much, especially being alone with Sasuke, whom she liked.
Just a pity.
Happy time is always short-lived.
Just when Sakura was about to say something, Sasuke took the initiative and said, "In this experience, you must protect yourself."
Sasuke is very clear about the character of those sea thieves. Those guys bully the weak and fear the strong. Once they have the upper hand, they can do anything against the weak.
Sakura felt the care from Sasuke, and immediately smiled happily: "Sasuke-kun will also participate in this experience, right?"
"Well, at sea, don't trust anyone except your partners."
Sasuke told Sakura all about his experience in facing pirates over the years.
"Yeah!" Sakura smiled softly and said, "Sasuke-kun, please don't worry. I have been practicing medical ninjutsu with Tsunade-sama recently. When the time comes to practice, there will be powerful partners to protect us."
The words just fell.
The space around the two people was distorted, Bai Yu's space door appeared, and then, Bai Yu slowly walked out of it.
"Are you going back?"
Sasuke asked.
"Well, I'll take you back to Uchiha and pack your things!" Bai Yu said with a smile.
"Oh?" Sasuke was confused.
Packing up, tidy up.
Are you going out?
Big night.
Where are they going?
"Let's go back first. Thank you for your hard work, Sakura. If you have time, you can go visit Ino to play more."
Bai Yu waved his hand to Sasuke and immediately comforted Sakura.
At this time, Sakura also had reluctance written on her face.
"Okay, brother Bai Yu, don't worry, I will go find Ino after practicing every day."
Sakura stood up and smiled with narrowed eyes.
"Then, see you next time."
After Bai Yu finished speaking, he led Sasuke, who stood up, into the space door and closed the twisted space in front of Sakura.
Sakura watched Sasuke and Bai Yu disappear in front of her. After a long time, she cleared the coffee table on the balcony alone and returned home immediately.
Sasuke goes back.
She always felt empty in her heart, but there was nothing she could do about it.
…
After a while.
Uchiha Ninja Village.
Residential area.
The Uchiha Grand Elder's Courtyard.
Bai Yu took Sasuke directly back to his home without going to the Uchiha Building.
Looking at the familiar doorway in front of me.
Sasuke said in surprise: "Tell me, where are you going to pack your things?"
"I will take you for a while to help you consolidate your own strength."
Bai Yu said calmly.
"Oh!" Although Sasuke didn't say anything, he was extremely happy inside.
Since Bai Yu took him with him for a while in Tian Country last time, Sasuke has never accepted Bai Yu's teachings again.
Follow Bai Yu.
Sasuke believed that he could still learn a lot.
"Go back and pack your things."
Bai Yu smiled.
Without waiting for Sasuke to speak.
The door of Fugaku's house suddenly opened, and Mikoto walked out. After seeing her youngest son and Bai Yu, she shouted with joy:
"Come out quickly, Master Bai Yu is back with Sasuke!"
"Mom!" Sasuke's tone suddenly softened when he saw his mother, and then asked: "Have you had dinner?"
Mikoto smiled and nodded to Bai Yu, then responded to Sasuke: "Of course I have eaten. Oh, by the way, your brother came back yesterday."
Mikoto knew that her second son didn't want to see her eldest son, but now that so much time had passed, she wanted to sneak in and see how Sasuke would react to Itachi now.
"Oh." Sasuke responded calmly. He had nothing to say about Itachi's return.
Sasuke thought.
When he comes back from practicing with Bai Yu this time, he can challenge Itachi!
Sasuke was confident.
I will never lose to that guy!
Dong dong dong——
Urgent footsteps came from inside the house. Fugaku, who had gained weight and had a big belly, walked out of the room happily and said excitedly:
"Mr. Bai Yu, come in and sit down, Miqin, and help me boil a pot of the best tea we have picked this year."
Bai Yu quickly shook his head and said, "That's no need. I'm going to take Sasuke to a place right away to help him practice for a period of time."
"Okay!" Fugaku had no objection to this, but felt very happy.
During this time, Sasuke was not in the Uchiha Ninja Village, so he and Mikoto were extremely happy in their two-person world.
Itachi's return yesterday made Fugaku very unhappy. He has not yet gotten over the nightmare of seeing the truth that night in Konoha.
But so much time has passed.
Mikoto had already looked away, so she felt very happy when Itachi came home for a rare occasion, and cooked a table of good meals to entertain Itachi.
"Then I'm sorry to trouble you, sir." Mikoto narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Recently, the Ninja Village is as harmonious as before, so you don't have to worry about that."
"Well, it's not troublesome. Sasuke has grown up now and is not as worried as he was when he was a child."
Bai Yu smiled.
Sasuke curled his lips. When he thought of his childhood, he would think of being beaten by Bai Yu. That was simply the shadow of his childhood.
"Dad, mom, brother, you guys chat, I'll pack the clothes for a long trip."
After Sasuke finished speaking, he entered the house and went straight to his bedroom.
Bai Yu did not have an awkward chat with Fugaku and his wife at the door. Instead, the three of them talked about the recent events in Ninja Village.
Fugaku and Mikoto made a brief report to Bai Yu on all important matters.
With these backbones assisting Shisui in managing Ninja Village, Bai Yu felt relieved.
About ten minutes passed.
Sasuke held a few seal scrolls in his hands, walked out of the house, and said more relaxedly: "Let's go!"
Said.
Sasuke came to his parents and said softly: "You guys take care of yourselves at home!"
Fugaku knew very well what kind of inhuman torture the ninjas of the Uchiha clan had to go through if they wanted to become stronger, so he immediately comforted him:
"Sasuke, don't stress too much."
Today's Uchiha Ninja Village does not need Sasuke to work hard anymore.
Uchiha Ninja Village has Bai Yu on the line.
The backbone is Shisui.
Worse still, there is a traitorous Weasel.
To this day.
Fugaku's mentality of hoping for his son to become a dragon has long since changed. As long as Sasuke is happy, he has nothing to hope for.
But he also knows.
Because Sasuke was instilled with too many bad ideas when he was a child, Sasuke was only happy when he pursued becoming stronger.
"I will take care of myself."
Sasuke nodded to his parents and immediately stood next to Bai Yu.
"You two should rest early." Bai Yu said with a smile, then opened the door to space and took Sasuke into it.
In the reluctant eyes of Fugaku and Mikoto, the door to space disappeared in front of them.
"Go back. With Master Baiyu here, Sasuke will only get better and better."
Fugaku put his hands on his hips and looked at the place where the space door disappeared, and couldn't help but sigh.
"It's not like you don't know what I'm worried about. When Sasuke comes back this time, he will definitely cause trouble for Itachi."
Mikoto let out a long sigh.
Even though Itachi disappointed everyone, he was still the child she gave birth to, and the palms and backs of his hands were full of flesh. If the two of them fought, the mother would naturally feel distressed.
"Oh, go back. This may be a battle destined to happen between the two brothers."
Fugaku suddenly had such an idea in his mind and immediately expressed it.
Mikoto didn't know what to say further.
The two stood at the door for a while before returning home.
the other side.
Bai Yu has already brought Sasuke to the Kingdom of Rain, the high tower, Nagato and Bai Yu's bedroom.
Some people died, but not completely...
