Chapter 598: Meeting after a Thousand Years
Strictly speaking, the "Rain Tiger Freedom Technique" is a small-range perception ninjutsu, but Nagato had too much chakra and turned it into a large-scale rainfall technique.
Ino quickly formed hand seals, and her perception rushed to the sky. Under the stimulation of chakra, the dark clouds around slowly gathered towards Konoha Village. The chakra transformed into more water vapor, and in less than a quarter of an hour, drizzle covered the entire village.
Someone deeply hated those monks for making her take the blame, and under her deliberate control, the rainfall in the entire village became extremely uneven.
Several monks were drenched by the heavy rain, and one unlucky fellow slipped and was washed directly into the sewer by the rain. The funeral of the Uchiha clan was very simple. This was Sasuke's request. He was already very grateful for restoring the reputation of Fugaku and Mikoto. There was no need for empty ceremonies. The dead didn't need those things.
Gradually more and more ninjas showed up.
Hinata Hiashi rarely left his old house. He came to Fugaku and Mikoto's grave alone, put down a bouquet of flowers, and then patted Sasuke on the shoulder to show his comfort.
"You're an excellent ninja. Your parents will be proud of you."
Sasuke stood in front of the tombstone like a javelin. Previous ninjas just put down the flowers and left, but he didn't expect Hinata Hiashi to talk to him.
He pursed his lips for more than ten seconds before saying, "Thank you."
It was cloudy and rainy in the village, and the dark negative energy slowly increased as more and more people came.
Minato Namikaze and his son Naruto also came to pay their respects in a private capacity.
Next came Sakura and her parents.
As a spiritual Uchiha, Sakura attached great importance to today's memorial service. Not only did she look solemn, she also tearfully purchased a supremely handmade large wreath from the Yamanaka Flower Shop. The huge word "甸" (Dedication) at the memorial site was also bought from Ino. Several calligraphers said that the word was well written.
What exactly was good about it? Sakura didn't know, she only knew that she had thrown all her salary from Konoha Hospital this month into it.
Sasuke gave her a small nod of thanks.
Sakura was happy in her heart, but she managed her expression very well, her face was heavy, and she didn't say much.
Ino said nothing, simply put down a bouquet of flowers, and turned to leave.
When I was walking back, I saw Asma and his wife.
This was not a good place to chat, so both parties just nodded.
Asuma brought his wife Hong and daughter to attend the memorial service. A breeze blew by, and Ino couldn't help but look back. She saw the almost one-year-old baby Sarutobi Mirai biting his fingers and looking at her happily.
She waved at the baby.
Then, a "thank you" came from the wind, which moved her a little. This voice sounded so much like Uchiha Shisui? Ino stood in the dark, observing the surroundings for a while, and for a moment she didn't know if she was hallucinating.
"What's wrong?" Izumi suddenly appeared next to Ino.
She said truthfully, "I thought I heard Shisui's voice."
Izumi disagreed: "If Shisui-san saw what happened today, he would probably be very happy. Alas."
Izumi's body was also found. She had never accomplished any great deeds in her life and died in a confused state. She was obviously a genius, but her death was uneventful. The feeling of unwillingness had been accumulating deep in her soul, reflecting the strongest spiritual energy in the world of the living, which was why Ino found her using summoning techniques that year.
Now Ino found that Izumi seemed to have suddenly attained enlightenment.
"Eh, your condition seems to be..."
Quan nodded gently: "Yes, I have let it go completely. Genius and Uchiha have nothing to do with me anymore."
She pointed around and said, "I always thought that down there was hell and this was the human world. Actually, I was wrong. This is hell. I longed to come back, but I found out that I was really stupid."
Seeing Izumi let go of all his worries and rest in peace, Ino did not stop him.
Although she did not agree with the view that the human world was hell, she also knew that the ninja world was not a good place, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was hell on earth.
Izumi left behind his Sharingan as a gift from a friend, and Ino accepted the gift as a friend, watching the resentment in her soul quickly eliminated until it became pure and flawless and returned to the Pure Land world.
In a trance, a young man with deep nasolabial folds was walking alone on a dark path. Quan quickly caught up with him. The two of them kept a distance that was taller than friends but not yet that of lovers. After a few greetings, they disappeared together.
At first, the Konoha ninjas couldn't figure out what the top leaders were thinking. They said that they had put the Uchiha clan's affairs behind them, but what if? What if they were just fishing? Everyone had their own family and business, so no one was willing to take that risk.
But with the arrival of Minato Namikaze and Asuma, more ninjas saw through the intentions of the top leaders, and they also walked out of their homes to participate in the memorial ceremony.
There are more and more people.
"Sasuke." Naruto wanted to say something to persuade the villagers before more of them arrived, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know what to say.
I am also very unfortunate, but at least I still have a father. Look at Sasuke like this, his entire family is dead.
Facing his enemies, he can talk endlessly, but facing his friends, he suddenly becomes clumsy.
If I do something silly or funny now, will Sasuke kill me?
After Minato's continuous teaching, Naruto has become much more mature and stable.
Patting a good brother on the shoulder is a way of comforting him.
"Now!" Ino, hiding in the dark, immediately began to make hand seals.
She used the bloodline net to quietly open a hole in the world of the living, and the breath of the god of death was infused into this side bit by bit.
At the same time, light blue ghost lights appeared on hundreds of graves, and in the light, the faces of the deceased could be vaguely seen.
"Dad! Mom!" When Sasuke saw the two figures, he was instantly moved and excited, and his Mangekyō Sharingan started to work involuntarily.
The emotions that had been accumulated and suppressed for more than a decade suddenly burst out, and many warm scenes between his parents and brothers were read back from his distant memory, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.
"If it was before, maybe I would have done something extreme, but now I know my true heart. I love you and hope you rest in peace."
There was expectation and encouragement in the parents' eyes. They nodded with a smile and slowly disappeared.
Sasuke felt a buzzing in his head and passed out instantly.
"Sasuke? What's wrong with you? I feel dizzy too." Naruto's hand was still on his shoulder. It seemed that he also felt the great grief in Sasuke's heart in an instant, and he fainted as well.
Ino held a rosary in the dark, and the shadow of the god of death appeared behind her. A door between yin and yang was opened, and as Naruto and Sasuke fell into a coma, the two ancient souls were pulled into a place independent of time and space.
