Naruto Life of Merit

Chapter 160 The Wandering Soul of Konoha Village
Since that day, thanks to Orochimaru's blessing, in the future, he has the ability to escape from the restrictions of the Immortal Curse Seal.So whenever night falls, Future will quietly wander around the village, taking a look at this home that has been away for decades.

In Muye Village at night, the villagers had already gone home to sleep.After all, we are now in a period of war, and conventional measures such as night curfews are necessary.

On the streets of Konoha Village, two Konoha ninjas are performing daily patrol tasks.

"Hey! Qijie, have you heard?" One of the ninjas suddenly asked his companions.

"What?" His companion Qijie asked suspiciously.

The ninja looked around for a while, looked a little nervous, and said in a low voice, "It's about that ghost!"

"Hey!" Qijie rolled his eyes and said to his companion amusedly, "That's just a rumor, didn't the captain say it, it's the third team's eyesight..."

"How is this possible? If the eyes are dazzled, how could the entire team be dazzled?" The ninja said eagerly, "You must know that there are six people in the third team, and they are in groups of two, so it's impossible to see them all? And There are three pairs of Sharingan in their team!"

"Hey, Mr. Tongchuan, are you afraid? If so, tomorrow I will ask the captain to change to another clansman to partner with me, and you can go to the front line!" My own timid clansman.You know, in the current state, the work of the security force is considered to be very dangerous, and I don't know how many people in the clan are waiting.

"Qijie-kun, don't be angry! Don't be angry! I'm just complaining, please bear with me..." Hearing this, Tong Chuan hurriedly bowed and apologized, expressing that he was momentarily confused.

Seeing Tongchuan's terrified appearance, Qijie nodded in satisfaction, and then spoke to appease, "Mr. Tongchuan, don't jump to conclusions about things that you haven't seen with your own eyes. I know that the third team has your good friends, but There is no guarantee that there will be no mistakes!"

"Yes, yes, yes! Qijie-jun is right!" Tong Chuan hurriedly nodded in agreement. It is not acceptable to disagree, but the other party is someone who can make him lose his job with a single word.

Seeing that the beating was over, Qijie was ready to continue patrolling, "Well, then let's continue...who?!"

Tong Chuan, who was nodding and bowing, trembled, but his years of combat experience prompted him to pull out Kunai immediately, and looked in the direction of Qijie's shout... But there was no one at all.

"Qijie-jun, what did you find?" Tong Chuan looked back at his companion suspiciously.

"..." Qijie was silent, staring around with a pair of red eyes, as if to find something.

Tong Chuan, who was on the sidelines, was also watching Qijie's blood-red eyes secretly, with envy on his face.

Sharingan, the symbol of the Uchiha clan, a powerful blood successor that only a few members of the clan can have.Although Qijie's Sharingan is only at the level of two hooks, but for Tong Chuan who does not have Sharingan, it is an existence that needs to be looked up to.

"No abnormality? Did I see it wrong?" Qijie didn't see any abnormality, and she was puzzled, so she also removed Sharingan.Then he continued to patrol with Tongchuan.

Just as Qijie and Tongchuan disappeared at the intersection, where they stayed before, a man in a black windbreaker suddenly appeared.

"The strongest Uchiha, heh, but now it's just a joke..." Seeing the two ninjas leave, Mirai shook his head and laughed.

After many days of wandering, today's Konoha Village makes the future feel strange.So strange that he couldn't find any traces to prove his existence.

Is this place still my home now?Future looked up deeply at the three faces carved on the high stone wall.

At this moment in the future, my heart is confused, wandering aimlessly in Muye Village, I just want to see this place I built with my own hands again.

On this day, after Hatake Kakashi fell asleep, Mirai came to the village again.Today, Future decided to go to the east side of Muye Village, where he set the cemetery at the beginning, I don't know if it has changed.

……

Today is a sad day. Another group of ninjas who died in battle were sent back to the village, and the village fell into an atmosphere of mourning.

Uchiha Itachi, who was only four years old, and everyone in the village paid homage to the ninjas who died in battle, but the fall of night did not make him go back.

Uchiha Itachi walked alone in the cemetery, the tombstone on the ground was a human life, "Someone died again, why must there be a war? What is the war for... eh?"

Uchiha Itachi, who was lost in thought, suddenly saw a person slowly drifting in from the gate of the cemetery.Yes, it just floated in!

"Who is that?" Itachi Uchiha was puzzled, he had never seen a person floating before, so he raised his foot and chased after him in doubt.

No change, exactly the same place, tombstones everywhere, these are the same as in memory...

Entering the cemetery in the future, I couldn't help but fell into sentimentality, "At least this place hasn't changed..."

In the future, he entered the depths of the cemetery, and he felt that he might see familiar names there.

"Omitano Karen... Ishihara Chiba... Matsumoto Rangiku... Hatake..." As expected, the names in memory appeared one by one on the stone tablet on the ground.

"Long time no see, everyone..." Future muttered to himself.

"Tomi Ye Yuan... because of the sixth year of Konoha?" The childish whisper turned the future's attention to a little doll at his feet.

"When did this kid get here?" Looking at this little doll in black shorts all over his body in surprise, the future said, whose family's brat was running around in the cemetery by himself in the middle of the night. Are you brave?

"Uncle," the little boy raised his head and asked strangely, "Do you know this senior?"

"Well, I know," Future said with a smile, "She is an excellent subordinate."

"Subordinate?" The little baby wondered, how could it be a subordinate, shouldn't it be an ancestor?

"Yes, subordinate..." Future sighed, then turned and left, "Child, it's getting late, go home early, don't let your family worry..."

"That... eh?" The little baby wanted to say a few more words, but found that the person who was still in his eyes a moment ago disappeared before he even blinked.

"Itachi." Just as the little boy was still wondering why the man disappeared, a call came from behind him.

When the little baby heard this, he turned around to look, and immediately smiled and called out, "Father!"

The person who came was the patriarch of the contemporary Uchiha clan, Uchiha Itachi's father Uchiha Fuqiu.

Uchiha Fuqiu said with a straight face, "Why are you still here so late, it's still the curfew period!"

"I'm sorry!" Uchiha Itachi bowed his head and admitted his mistake.

Uchiha Fuqiu's face softened a little, and then he took the lead and walked towards the gate of the cemetery, "Okay, let's go back first."

"Hmm!" Uchiha Itachi responded, and after looking back at the place where the future disappeared, he followed Uchiha Tomiga's footsteps.

……

The next day, a young girl came to the cemetery with white flowers in her hands. She came to visit her relatives.But today's cemetery seems to have changed.

The girl stood in front of the tombstones of Tomino En and Ishihara Chiba, looking strangely at the two white flowers beside the tombstone.

"Someone has been here before," the girl was puzzled, "Who is it?" Subconsciously looking around, she found that there were also white flowers in front of the tombstone of Matsumoto Ranju, the ancestor of the Matsumoto family, and there were also people from the Hatake family...

……

It is said that since meeting that mysterious uncle last night, Itachi Uchiha has always kept it in his heart.Why did that uncle say that Tomino Yuan-senpai is a good subordinate?And that uncle is still floating!
Uchiha Itachi, who was full of doubts, found his father, and he hoped that his father could help him find the answer.
