Naruto: Immortal Spirit

What is the most important thing for a person?

Kato Ou didn't answer this question, he just glanced sideways at the person who asked the question - Uchiha Itachi.

Uchiha Itachi emerged from the jungle and just landed quietly next to Kato Ou, and this sudden encounter was almost coming to an end.

The bright red figure danced in the sky, playing the last movement of his life, like a red butterfly dancing gracefully in the dim sky.

I don’t know whose blood it is, but it blooms in the sky like blood mist. The gentle wind carries the gloomy red, and falls on the earth like blood rain.

Kato Oo was a little curious as to what Uchiha Itachi was thinking now. His eyes rarely showed such obvious emotions, as if he had discovered a new world. He just stared at Matt Dai who was already stained red with blood, his eyes There is an inexplicable brilliance shining in it.

A drop of blood floating from the sky suddenly fell on Uchiha Itachi's cheek, which seemed to break his quiet self-world. Uchiha Itachi came back to his senses, but he noticed Kato Oo's gaze, but he lowered his head slightly. Eyes.

"Blood……"

"It's so hot..."

The weak voice was vague, Kato Oo had no words but was thoughtful, still looking at Uchiha Itachi.

He roughly knew the status of the Uchiha clan in Konoha Village. Although they seemed to be superior, they were like a tree in the wind. Although they were proud and independent, they were in danger of overthrowing.

Uchiha Itachi's ups and downs of emotions allowed Kato Ou to roughly guess some of his thoughts, but the silent genius boy in front of him seemed to let Kato Ou see himself who was once struggling at the root - it seemed that he had a choice road, in fact the answer has already been determined.

"It seems Itachi knows him..."

"I just saw..."

"So, such a powerful person has been staying in Konoha in obscurity. Even the occurrence of the war seems to have nothing to do with him..."

Itachi Uchiha frowned deeply. He had never thought about it and couldn't help but look up at Kato Oo.

Even though he is a genius, he is only seven or eight years old. He still retains the peace and beauty built by Konoha in his mind. He often does not think about certain dark aspects when he sees anything - Whether or not this is a possibility.

Kato Ou chuckled lightly, and just glanced at Uchiha Itachi, his eyes passed through the cover of the jungle and fell on Matt Dai.

"He's going to die..."

Uchiha Itachi didn't speak, but his eyes revealed his thoughts, as if he was waiting for Kato Oo's explanation.

"Maybe it's this secret technique that allowed him to realize his potential..."

Uchiha Itachi stared at Matt Dai, and was silent for a long time with some thoughts, as if talking to himself, and as if he was rarely revealing his troubles, frowning and looking at Kato Oo.

"So no matter this secret technique or any special ninjutsu allows him to exert such strength, can it be said that he does not want to sacrifice his life for the war and the village, but he can sacrifice his life for his family? "

"Maybe……"

Hearing Uchiha Itachi's words, Kato O's eyes narrowed slightly. He said that sacrificing one's life for Konoha and sacrificing one's family are two opposite things...

The corner of his mouth couldn't help but raise an imperceptible smile. From the Uchiha's question, Kato Ou seemed to have gotten the answer he wanted - the conflict between the Uchiha family and Konoha seemed to be very acute. .

As if aware of his gaffe, Uchiha Itachi looked at Kato Ou with a little more confusion and vigilance.Just as if a secret had been spied on, with a bit of innocent resentment, he looked at Kato Ou indifferently.

"Teacher Xu, I discovered an interesting thing."

"Oh?"

"As a special Jonin of Konoha, you never call the village a village in your words. You only talk about Konoha Village or Konoha..."

"It's like...the Mist Ninja and the Rock Ninja..."

Kato Ou's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at Uchiha Itachi with a bit of coldness, but then he chuckled.

"Haha, isn't the name of the village Konoha? Itachi, do you think the person standing in front of you now is the clone of Kirigakure or Iwa Ninja?"

"You really underestimate me..."

Kato Ou flicked his fingers and hit Uchiha Itachi's forehead before Uchiha Itachi could react. The blue light flashed away, but Uchiha Itachi's body flew out like a cannonball and hit the ground. On the big tree.

Just a snap of his fingers made him unable to avoid it, as if he was hit by a heavy hammer, and he couldn't help but cough violently.

"When you see the ninjas in the village in danger, you have to rescue them as soon as possible. Itachi, you have to be a ninja who loves and protects his companions..."

The sound by the jungle attracted Iruka and Uzuki Yugao, who were following Kato Oo's orders and were alert to the surroundings. Although they did not know the situation on the battlefield yet, they also rushed here quickly.

"Teacher Xu? Itachi?"

With some doubts, Uzuki Xiyan, who was the first to come over, took a strange look at Itachi Uchiha, who had a red and swollen forehead and said nothing, and then his eyes fell on Kato Ou, but before she could speak, there was an explosion. It came from the battlefield not far away.

Metadai, whose whole body erupted with intense red light, let out a roar, as if he had exhausted all his strength, and hit Kirigakure, an unknown country of water, with an unparalleled punch. The Kirigakure ninja was deeply embedded in the earth. The killer could no longer be found, and the war seemed to have come to an end.

"That's..., Metkai?"

With some sweat on his forehead, Iruka rushed out of the forest and looked straight at the scene on the battlefield, his eyes seemed to be a little dazed.

He looked at the jungle with some disbelief, as if he had experienced earth-shaking changes. The huge pit made him couldn't help but twitch his Adam's apple. He kept scanning the surroundings, and seemed to have discovered a familiar person...

"The person who fought just now...? Is... Kai's father?"

Compared with a genius like Kakashi Hatake, the only thing that Metkai can possibly catch up with now is his popularity in the Konoha Ninja School.

Even if he is a child of a big family, it is impossible for everyone in the Ninja School, whether senior or junior, to know him. What is even more rare is that he also knows his father.

"Teacher Xu..., aren't we...going to help them?"

Before Iruka could recover from the shock, Uzuki Xiyan asked the question he wanted to ask, and he couldn't help but look at Kato Oo.

"It seems there is no need for that anymore..."

"Teacher! What does this... mean?"

Although from the blood that was constantly spilling, it could be roughly guessed that Matt Dai's condition might not be very good, but Iruka was still a little in disbelief. He seemed to have thought of something and just looked at Kato Oo.

"It's probably a forbidden technique..."

"He has run out of gas..."

Kato Ou ignored Iruka's disbelief. A faint blue light flashed in his eyes, as sharp as if it wanted to penetrate Metkai's entire body.

"Chakra……"

"It's starting to weaken..."

A person's ability is always limited, but it is also unlimited.When Matedai ​​threw the most powerful punch in his life, his aura was as fast as a mountain toppling over, and his whole body began to thunder like exploding beans.

The mobility that he had forcibly maintained with chakra seemed to be completely lost at this moment. His body could no longer bear such pain, and began to fall from the sky like a meteor.

Matdai's whole body seemed to have escaped from a fire scene, losing the protection of chakra. The sequelae caused by the bloody steam made his skin completely charred, and his whole body seemed to be in pain to the point of losing all consciousness.

"dad……"

Metkai ran madly towards the place where Metedai ​​was about to fall, an unspeakable sadness that was about to drown him like a stormy sea.

"Dad..., dad..."

Even though his body was injured, there always seemed to be a slight distance between him and Matt Dai, making it seem like there were thousands of mountains and rivers between him and Matt Dai.

"Is it over..."

"It's really unbelievable..."

Kato Ou's figure flashed and suddenly appeared on the battlefield. Not far from Metkai, he gently released chakra with one hand and slowly placed Metkai's body on the ground.

Metaka suddenly opened his eyes and saw Konoha's forehead protector on Kato Oo's body. He completely let go of the last trace of worry in his heart. He endured the pain and twisted his head. He looked at Metaka staggering towards him, his lips murmuring. He seemed to want to say something, but he just opened his mouth and tears kept rolling down.

"dad……"

Looking at Matdai, who was no longer human, Matkai's steps shrank suddenly. He couldn't bear to see this scene, and tears burst out without any warning. He cried sadly and wanted to reach out and touch him. Matt Dai was worried that his slightest move would put his father into greater pain.

Metkai, who turned around, instantly fell to his knees on the ground, looking at Kato Oo with his last bit of hope.

"Jōnin Kato..., please, please save my father, you are the great hero of the village, there must be a way, there must be a way!"

Kato Oo didn't expect that he was already so famous. Metkai recognized him at a glance. Just looking at Metaka who was kneeling on the ground, he couldn't help but frown and sighed slightly.

"give up……"

"No..., no..., how could dad..."

Metkai's head kept hitting the ground, as if he was going to break his head and bleed. However, Kato Ou, who looked at Metaka's injury, remained silent and did not respond.

The sky was dim, with a gray-blue light shining miserably on the broken earth. The chilling wind swayed the few withered grasses and buried Metkai's heart in the bloody soil. .

Kato Ou, who seemed to be thinking about something, suddenly raised his eyes, and an unprecedented thought appeared in his mind. He no longer hesitated at the moment, and a dark light appeared in his hand, and quietly penetrated into what was already Inside the body of Matt Dai when he was dying.

"Instead of begging me, why not spend a few words with him?"

"He doesn't have much time..."

Kato Ou waved his sleeves lightly, and a specially made military food pill fell in front of Metkai.

"I don't need to tell you what this is. It will probably make him spend his last little time with less pain."

Metkai stared blankly at the scarlet soldier's grain pill in his hand, and then looked at his father. With a hint of gratitude in his painful eyes, Metkai nodded slightly to Metkai, but this small movement was not enough. As if he was in great pain, beads of sweat were once again scattered on his forehead.

Metkai couldn't stop crying, but he still put the scarlet red soldier's food pill into his father's mouth. This specially made soldier's food pill can suppress the pain in the body and stimulate the final potential, only in the case of death. He would only swallow it later and fight for his life with the enemy, but now it has become Metkai's last life support.

"thanks……"

After Matedai ​​swallowed the Bing Liang Pill, the painful expression on his face eased a lot. He struggled to half-prop his body and thanked Kato Oo.

Kato Ou didn't say anything else, and walked slowly away from here, leaving the last time for the father and son, but his heart suddenly felt a little irritable.

No one came forward, but stood not far away from them. Seeing the final farewell between Metkai and his father, the sound of sobbing kept coming. The scene of parting and death made everyone unable to help but remain silent. Everyone seemed to understand that what was about to happen was about to happen. Things that happened.

"Teacher Xu... you actually carry something like this with you..."

Uzuki Xiyan spoke slightly with some silence. Iruka, who always talked a lot, couldn't help but become silent. The two teammates of Metkai who lowered their heads didn't know when they had tears on their faces. They didn't know they were injured. Feeling sad or guilty, only Itachi Uchiha was particularly fascinated as he gazed at the figure of Matt Dai and his son.

"One million taels a piece, remember to ask that little guy to pay me back..."

Kato Ou ignored Uzuki Xiyan and walked away from the distance, his fists clenched tightly, and his chest seemed to have countless violent hammers hitting his heart.

"Why didn't you think of it earlier..."

……

The lush jungle has a slight smell of blood. The sunlight passes through the layers of branches and leaves, but it reflects little red lights in the places where the blood mist is scattered, making the entire jungle radiate an unknown weirdness.

Kato Ou sat quietly on the branch of the big tree, seeming to be thinking about something, when a black light wrapped in a blue light suddenly rushed into Kato Oo's body in an instant.

He knew that Metadai was dead...or rather, his body was dead...

Slowly closing your eyes and entering the spiritual space, a group of faint blue light hovers quietly in the air, attracted by the spirit body in the space. Its soul energy is constantly overflowing, and there are wisps of faint blue light. point, slowly pouring into the spirit body.

Kato Ou just waved his hand, and the dark seal chain climbed up to this ball of blue light, completely wrapping it up. The spiritual energy that was constantly leaking out was also completely sealed, and would never leak out again.

Gazing at this group of soul light hovering quietly in the dark chain, Kato Ou was silent for a long time, with an unprecedented brilliance in his eyes.

With a smile on his lips, Kato Ou didn't touch Matt Dai's soul anymore, he just stored it quietly and exited the spiritual space.

"Teacher Orochimaru..., what a genius..."

Kato Oo suddenly opened his eyes and couldn't help but look in the direction of Kirigakure, where there was his 'mentor and friend' - Orochimaru.

"Teacher Xu..."

"Kai and the others are going back..."

Maoyue Xiyan hurriedly jumped out of the jungle, her face still a bit sad, even her voice was a bit low when she spoke.

"Well..., it's time for us to go..."

"Itachi, let them bring the bodies of the other two Kirigakure with them... We don't have to go back and rush to the Kirigakure battlefield as soon as possible..."

"Yes……"

After Kato Oo's 'guidance', Uchiha Itachi seemed to be a little more silent. He only glanced at Kato Oo occasionally, but almost didn't look at him.

"Let's go..."

When he saw Metkai again, Kato Ou didn't know what Metkai had said to him, but although Metkai was still a little sad now, he seemed to be a little more determined.

"Perhaps, each generation's search begins from the moment they bury their fathers in the soil with their own hands."

"Jōnin Kato..., I will pay you back the 100 million taels as soon as possible!"

"Thank you……"

Metkai stood in front of Kato Ou, standing straight.He looked at Kato Oo with determination and gratitude in his eyes.

"what ever……"

Kato Ou nodded and without saying anything else, he led Iruka and the three of them slowly towards the jungle and continued towards Kirigakure.

"Thank you, I really appreciate it..."

Looking at Kato Oo's back, Metkai slowly bowed and bowed to Kato Ou for a long time until the four of them disappeared into the jungle.
