Chapter 416 Farewell
Water Country Battlefield
At the intelligence department of the Konoha camp, Shisui and the other two were looking at the information in their hands with embarrassment on their faces.
"I think we should tell the teacher about this."
After hearing what Souji said, A Yue said in embarrassment: "But, we are in wartime now, and Kirigakure may launch a general attack at any time. If I tell the teacher now, I am afraid it will affect his condition."
Shisui shook his head, "Azuki, Shiro-sensei isn't that fragile. He's a powerful ninja, and besides, you can't hide this from him. Don't forget, this information was originally given to him specifically."
A Yue opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, she gave up. Shisui was right, they really couldn't stop this.
This scroll is just a more formal document, transmitted through Konoha's intelligence system. It is not a top secret thing, and there are many backups.
So no matter how they try to stop him, Shiro will eventually find out.
Finally, the three of them put away the scrolls in their hands and walked towards Shiro. When they stood up, they revealed the contents written on the scrolls:
On the battlefield of the Land of Thunder, Okisuke and Qing Yu were killed!
This is a list of casualties!
And the name of Shiro's first teammates is at the front!
Therefore, the three of them hesitated whether to tell Silang. However, when they found Silang, the scene before them made them hesitate again.
Shiro was sitting quietly in the tent, with two white-haired old women lying in front of him. They had already lost their breath, but in their aged features, one could vaguely see the shadows of Ryoka and Suzune.
"Teacher, this is..."
Shirou turned his head to look at Shisui and the others, then continued to look at the two people on the ground, "You're here, um, just as you thought, this is Ryoka and Suzune and the others."
"How could that be?"
"Is it because of excessive use of chakra?"
"Well, I consumed too much chakra, overdrawn my vitality, and aged prematurely. Now, it's all gone."
Shisui frowned, "Isn't that right? Excessive consumption of chakra does deplete vitality, but I remember it wasn't this terrible!"
Souji beside him also nodded. It is true that excessive consumption of chakra is harmful to the body, but it is not to the extent that the whole person will age.
This situation will not happen unless the intensity of the battle is very high.
"You're right, but that only applies to ordinary people. Ryoka and the others are different. Their vitality is less than that of ordinary people. They only have a lifespan of three years."
"Three years!?"
"Yes, three years. My original plan was to let them spend these three years in the security force, living a normal life, but..."
But Ryoka and the others have their own choice, to help Shiro!
As mentioned earlier, these two girls were created by Shiro based on himself, so they also have a certain amount of chakra in their bodies, although they cannot use ninjutsu.
But it is precisely because of this that they have mastered the most original purpose of chakra - communicating with people's inner hearts.
It was because they sensed Shiro's pure compassion for them that they decided to come to the Water Country battlefield.
Even if they overdrew their own vitality, they persisted and finally succeeded in triggering the upcoming small-scale battle. Of course, this would not be possible relying on them alone.
During this process, Shiro also asked the Uchiha people for a lot of help, preparing to fulfill their wishes before their lives were exhausted.
What a pity.
The battle had barely begun when they had already exhausted their lives.
Shi Lang glanced at the three people who were hesitant to speak, "Tell me, what do you want from me? Judging from your expressions, you must want to tell me some bad news. Go ahead, I'm fine."
"No, no, teacher, you're worrying too much. We're just here to ask what we should do in the upcoming battle."
Hearing Shisui's words, Souji's eyes lit up and he also agreed: "Yes, teacher, we are only here to know the arrangements for the next battle, nothing else."
Shiro sighed, "Do you believe it yourself? If not, I'll ask Fugaku."
As he said that, Shiro was about to get up and go find Fugaku. Seeing this, Shisui and the others lowered their heads, "Actually, Sensei, your teammates have been killed in action."
Shiro paused, then sat down again, his expression frozen for a moment, "Aoame Osuke?"
"Um."
Shiro smiled and said, "Haha, this day has finally come. Haha."
"teacher"
Shiro waved his hand and said, "I'm fine. I just didn't expect this day to come so soon. I'm a little emotional. Actually, I've been prepared for this day for a long time. Qingyu and the others are not qualified ninjas."
"Whether in terms of our own abilities or our mentality, we are far from meeting the requirements of a ninja. After all, we were originally used as cannon fodder on the battlefield."
"So I had anticipated this scene a long time ago, but I didn't expect it to come so early."
In fact, Shiro had made some arrangements for this. The battlefield that Qingyu and the others were originally going to was the battlefield of the Land of Earth, which was under the charge of Orochimaru. Shiro also told him that there would be basically no danger.
Unfortunately, the situation on the battlefield changed. Almost all the Konoha ninjas in the Land of Earth battlefield went to support the Land of Lightning battlefield, and although Shiro had a good relationship with Minato.
But after all, there was no such convenient way to contact him, and he happened to be away from the camp during that time.
Finally, a series of coincidences led to the current scene.
After saying that, Shiro just sat there, quietly looking at Ryoka and Suzune lying on the ground, without saying a word. Shisui and the others also stood aside tactfully. Only Ayue walked over to Shiro with a sad face and sat down.
Unlike Shisui and the others, Ayue and Ryoka were closer because they often practiced magic together. Naturally, Ayue was also very sad about their deaths.
After a long while, Fugaku appeared at the entrance of the tent.
"Clan leader (Fugaku-sama)!"
"Um."
"Chief Emiya, although I know it's not convenient right now, you may want to put these things aside for now. Kirigakure is here."
"Really? In that case, I have a favor to ask of you, Chief Fugaku." Shiro stood up and turned to look at Fugaku. "Please inform everyone that I will fight alone in this battle!"
Fugaku was stunned. Looking at the determined eyes beneath the white hair of the young man, he thought of another figure he had seen on the battlefield. It seemed as if the two of them had reunited at this moment.
But Fugaku immediately shook his head. This was just his own subjective idea. Although they were master and disciple in name, their fighting styles were completely different, and their ways of dealing with people were also different. How could there be any overlap?
"This matter is not a big deal. I will inform everyone right away. However, it's not that Fugaku doesn't trust Patriarch Emiya. If you can't hold on, we will take action immediately!"
"Yeah, I know."
