After planting trees in Naruto, I decided to go to Infinite Tsukuyomi

Sasuke, wearing his navy blue clan uniform, stood next to Naruto and attended the funeral of the third Hokage.

His clothes were very dark in color and looked particularly conspicuous among the dark Konoha ninjas.

"Sasuke, a lot of things have happened in just these few days."

Naruto stood next to Sasuke and wiped his uncontrollable tears with the handkerchief Sasuke handed him.

"The third generation grandpa is Ningji-san... they are all dead." Facing calm and self-possessed, Naruto poured out his sadness wantonly, "They are so, so cunning, I haven't defeated them yet. Wuwu" Woo..."

Naruto covered his eyes with his shoulder and trembled on Sasuke's shoulder.

Seeing Naruto so sad, Sasuke could only comfort him by stroking Naruto's head silently.

Seeing Naruto, Shikamaru, and Neji so sad caused the joy and sense of accomplishment in his heart to disappear.

He is a few steps closer to achieving his great goal.

Only, one general can make thousands of bones wither.

These prices are not actually what he wants to have.

Perhaps, the reason why Naruto cried was because there were other people at the funeral who also cried.

Asuma, the son of the Hokage, was holding a cigarette for a rare time. He still looked at the commemorative monument in front of him in disbelief. He never expected that the old man who refused to leave the position of Hokage would actually die this time. Be on guard against the chunin exams.

He had his nephew Konohamaru wailing beside him because he had lost his parents and now he had lost his most beloved grandfather.

Hinata also cried beside her father. Although she has always been coldly looked down upon by Neci, she has always liked and admired such a talented brother Neci.

The head of the Hyuga family is also very sad. Ningci is the only descendant of his beloved younger brother. He is the most outstanding person in the next generation of the Hyuga family. His death would be a huge blow to the future of the Hyuga clan.

I glanced at the person beside me who was crying and out of breath. My daughter was the head of the Hyuga clan. I couldn't bear the sadness. Ningji was so weak. Can Hinata support the Hyuga clan in the future?

Can their clan really maintain its status as the largest clan in Konoha? Where will they go if they have a future?

Neji has teammates Tenten and Xiao Li who are no better than Hinata. One of them has lost his beloved, the other has lost his companion and has a rival in his life.

Their third shift could never be complete again.

Seeing Konoha's morale plummeting, Danzo Shimura, the host of the funeral, stood up.

He was wearing a pure white kimono, with a sad face and a resolute expression, and spoke of Konoha's Will of Fire in a deep voice that was infectious.

They have teacher Senju Tobirama who is willing to sacrifice for Konoha to have a future, and he has teammate Sarutobi Hiruzen who is also lying here for Konoha to have a future...

Although the Hokages have passed away, their spirits are still alive and their fire of will will be passed down in Konoha forever!

He has roots in Konoha and will continue to protect this land for the next Hokage. He will use everything he has to provide nutrients for the big tree of Konoha.

Even if it’s by any means necessary!

Seeing Danzo's wonderful performance, Sasuke sighed softly.

"Sa...What's wrong with Sasuke?" Naruto asked while sobbing and looking at his friend who looked unpredictable.

"Naruto is perhaps the most talented ninja of Senju Tobirama and Shimura Danzo."

Naruto opened his eyes in surprise when he heard what Sasuke said. He clearly remembered that when he was a child, Sasuke actually admired Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama the same as he did.

"Shouldn't there be the best ninjas, Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara?" Naruto asked in confusion because it attracted the attention of the people around him.

Facing Naruto's questions and the stares of all the ninjas, Sasuke unmovedly expressed his true opinion: "A ninja is essentially a cruel and professional person. And both of them are too beautiful."

Ninja, a cruel profession?

The young ninjas frowned at Sasuke because they disagreed with him, while the older ninjas who had been on missions for a long time showed approval and looked at this only person who was rumored to have the dark side of the ninja world.

Yes, a ninja is essentially a very cruel profession.

Konoha cannot lack someone strong and strong like Danzo-sama who hides in the dark.

Especially, at this time.

However, Danzo-sama seems to have no intention of inheriting the position of Hokage. Who will be the next Hokage?

In addition to the sadness, there were Konoha ninjas at the funeral who began to think.

After the funeral, people in Konoha gradually dispersed, but Sasuke still stood there, looking at an inconspicuous corner.

"Sasuke isn't leaving?" Naruto tugged on Sasuke's clothes because he was already hungry.

Hinata was almost crying and was taken away by her father. Sasuke, his classmates and the leading Jonin all looked at Sasuke and Naruto.

Some who didn't leave were curious about Sasuke, the "noble ninja", and some looked over.

Sasuke turned a blind eye to anyone around him who was curious or concerned, and pulled Naruto away without saying a word.

Seeing Sasuke acting so calmly, Shikamaru frowned.

Suddenly he remembered that he had suspected something fishy when the Uchiha clan was exterminated many years ago.

This, this, this...isn't this possible?

"Why does Shikamaru look so hungry?" Choji saw Shikamaru's surprised expression and said in a somewhat dissatisfied tone, "Sasuke, he really didn't even say hello to us. Is he going to talk to Naru?" What are people whispering?"

"I don't know." Shikamaru controlled his expression and said, "Sasuke... has probably been through a lot."

"I think it's cool to have Sasuke like this." Ino couldn't help but feel infatuated when she saw Sasuke's back, but she continued to feel sad when she saw the third generation's grave.

"The Third Hokage is really a good Hokage-sama." Ino said blankly.

"..."

Shikamaru fell silent because he was emotionally on the side of his friend Sasuke regarding the Uchiha genocide.

Judge based on your friend's IQ and planning, as well as his strength...

Although there is no evidence, Shikamaru always feels that Sasuke is inseparable from the death of the Third Hokage.

He also practiced Yin Dun and was standing on the other side of Sasuke. He could vaguely feel that Sasuke's chakra was more sinister than before and he was walking on a dark path.

"Sasuke is here,?"

Naruto was pulled by Sasuke without any resistance to a strange cemetery, where patterns like forks would appear from time to time. He remembered that it seemed like... Qianju had a family crest?

"Naruto, this is where Aiko's grandma has a grave."

Sasuke stood in front of a remote tomb. At some point, a bouquet of white roses appeared in his hand. He took it out from a seal scroll he had with him.

With his eyes red and swollen, Naruto stared blankly at the brand new tombstone in front of him. The four words "Senju Aiko" on the tombstone were so dazzling.

"Ai is Grandma Aiko? She...she's dead? When I take the Chunin Exam?"

"..."

"Why are they all dead? It was Sasuke and I who paid them back. There are so many things I want to say to them."

Naruto muttered to himself in a somewhat broken voice.

Sasuke felt very guilty seeing Naruto so sad. He wanted to say something to these dead people and had already said it, but he was the one who left Naruto with such regret.

He has no regrets and never looks back.

To him it was all part of the plan.

However, he finally let down his best friend.

"I'm sorry, Naruto." Sasuke knelt down, lowered his head, and looked quietly at the tombstone in front of him that stood up from its roots.

Naruto looked puzzled when he saw Sasuke: "Sasuke, why are you apologizing?"

Facing Naruto's doubts, Sasuke had no answer, so he continued:

"Naruto, can you promise me one thing? Other than that, I really won't ask anything of you anymore."

Before this Chunin Exam, Sasuke had been helping him and never asked him for anything.

Naruto also squatted down and looked at Sasuke and said, "Sasuke, I will never refuse you."

A pair of rotating kaleidoscopes appeared in front of Naruto's eyes.

"Naruto, please don't die."

Sasuke cried.
