Naruto: Immortal Spirit

"There are two roads before me now..."

"One is gentle..."

"Probably, I will build a 'little ninja world' here that I want. There may be some changes, but maybe there won't be..."

"The other one is violent..."

"Conquer all the opponents of this world, and then let them maintain the operation of this world according to my will and the way I want..."

A few days have passed since the incident in Konoha, but until now, even the Kages of the major ninja villages have the illusion that they have fallen into a genjutsu.

Konoha's new Fourth Hokage, Namikaze Minato, died in the Tailed Beast Rebellion.

This is good news...

There is no better news than him, especially for the Kumo ninja, but equally, among the intelligence returned by spies from all sides, there is also some 'bad news' that other ninja villages have to take seriously - the destruction of the Kyuubi. The power is really amazing.

Even though he was a little ready to make a move, he couldn't help but weigh whether Konoha, which still had a 'weapon' like the Nine-Tails, chose to burn everything and the village that had just experienced the war could survive...

The death of Namikaze Minato was more like the end of an era. All the great nation's ninja villages had undercurrents, but then died down. The ninja world seemed to have entered the same starting line again.

Falling into a clichéd trap...

Kato Ou had already returned to the attic of Kusanagi Village. Xiaobai slowly snaked out from his neck, with a humanized light in his eyes. He looked quietly with his head on his hands, thinking and mumbling to himself. Kato Oo.

It seemed that it had never seen Kato Ou who was so absorbed in contemplation, and it stopped moving. The snake's head lay on Kato Ou's head, and slowly closed its eyes. In these days, the time it slept seemed to be getting longer and longer, and it seemed that Entering the youth period of snakes.

"Compared to the gentle and passive approach, I probably want to take this almost mandatory, life-risking, difficult path..."

Quietly recalling every detail of his arrival in the ninja world, Kato Ou sighed slightly, as if he thought of something, he burst into laughter.

"How arrogant are you? You have already started thinking about changing the world?"

Desire is always endless, like a collection of angels and demons, playing with everyone's hearts, or guiding the pioneers of the world to keep moving forward, or tempting the ignorant masses to float and sink in the world.

"Kato-sama..., Lin..."

Outside the attic door, a knock on the door sounded slowly. Kabuto walked in a hurry, opened the door as usual, and went deeper.

In these days, Kabuto has become familiar with this place, and even met a child of his 'same age'. Although he was slightly confused as to whether this girl was his 'senior sister', he didn't ask anything.

Probably, Kabuto had unknowingly become like a little adult, calm and composed, like a born scientific researcher.

Kato Oo came back to his senses and came down from the second floor. The table was already filled with all kinds of delicious food. Kabuto was busy placing tableware, tables and chairs. When he saw Kato Oo, he couldn't help but panic. , he still has no clue about Kato O's problem yesterday.

He didn't shy away from talking, although he felt a little regretful. Kabuto slightly raised his head and looked at Kato Oo, with a touch of loss in his eyes.

"Master Kato, I have finished what you told me yesterday..."

"Oh? Did you find anything?" Kato Ou said calmly.

"No..., nothing was found..."

Kabuto's tone was slightly frustrated, but he continued to express his confusion.

"Not only that, her cell activity is several times stronger than that of ordinary people, and her brain is also filled with active neurons. I can't find the reason why she has been in coma..."

"There is no sign of the illusion being maintained...and the brain is not sealed by the sealing technique..."

"She even just seemed to be asleep..."

Kabuto's eyes were full of doubts. It seemed that this situation was completely beyond his knowledge. There had never been a similar case in the medical ninjutsu he had learned.

"Kabuto, did you know that yellow fern leaves in autumn are a delicious field dish..."

Kato Oo sat at the dining table, as if he didn't hear Kabuto's confusion, pointed to the plate placed in the center of the dining table, chuckled, and didn't say much.

Yellow-leaf fern is a delicacy discovered by Nonoyu during this autumn and winter social life.

There are golden leaves, but a small flower blooms in the middle. Use yellow fern leaves to roll a few pieces of fresh fish meat and steam it in a steamer. The freshness of the fish meat will be mixed with the aroma of the grass, which is very delicious.

Kabuto was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't understand why Kato O said this. He hesitated to speak, so he had to sit down, but he didn't move his chopsticks, as if he was waiting for something.

"Kabuto, you're here..."

Lin didn't keep Kabuto waiting for too long. With a slightly confused look on her face as if she had just woken up, Lin reluctantly said hello to Kabuto, glanced at Kato Ou with a smile, and then sat quietly at the dining table.

"Lin, you didn't rest yesterday, okay?"

"No..., it's pretty good..."

Probably because she wasn't used to being treated as a 'peer', Lin's smile was a bit stiff, but she didn't say much.

Kato Ou ate in silence. Maybe they were not lively people, and they seemed a bit deserted on weekdays.

"Brother Bai sent a message. He and Zabuza-sama will be back in two days..."

"Okay, I see..."

"Sister Xiangling is about to learn to walk. Mother is very happy..."

"Um……"

Kabuto occasionally spoke a few words, trying his best to break the silent atmosphere, but most of the time, Kato Oo and Lin seemed to lack interest, but he still enjoyed it, and occasionally talked about interesting things, and would even mention himself Amusing.

"After dinner, come to the laboratory..."

Putting down the tableware in his hands, Kato Oo gently touched Kabuto's head. As if to play a prank, he treated Kabuto the same as he was treated. He rubbed Lin's head. Lin couldn't help but roll her eyes, as if to say that Kato Oo was really going to do it. Did she treat her like a child?

"Yes, Lord Kato..."

Kato Oo's figure disappeared, and Kabuto seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. For some reason, when he faced Kato Oo, he always felt a slight pressure, and he couldn't explain it.

"Lin... Lord Kato just said, 'Yellow fern leaves in autumn are a delicious field dish.' Do you want to tell me something with this sentence?"

"I've been thinking about it for a long time, but I can't figure it out. Please help me with my advice..."

Maybe Lin is the only one of his own age now. Kabuto seems to be naturally close to Lin, and he will also say things to Lin that he dare not say in front of Kato O.

"Oh? Is that so..."

"Probably, I want you to have a good meal..."

Lin didn't think too much and shrugged slightly. She still liked Kabuto, a cute kid, as long as he didn't regard her as his peer.

"It shouldn't be... Kato-sama is not such a superficial man, he must have some deep meaning..."

"Just now I saw Kato-sama's chopsticks landed on the yellow fern leaves 32 times, the tempura 10 times, and the rest of the dishes were almost untouched..."

"32, does this number have any profound meaning?"

Looking at Kabuto's serious look, Lin couldn't help but laugh. Unexpectedly, Kabuto even recorded the details of Kato O's meals. He was so cute and silly...

"Haha... I guess Xujun really likes this dish..."

A ray of light reflected from Kabuto's glasses, and his eyes brightened a bit. He made a fist with one hand, punched it lightly on his palm, and nodded thoughtfully.

"Indeed, I want to tell Mother this information..."
