Naruto: The hardworking model who realizes his dream is actually the white moonlight of the ninja wo

Snakes don't raise babies.

It doesn't even remember how it grew into what it is now - but at least it remembers that it was once small.

It wasn't like this when it was first created.

But faced with a human-shaped cub, it can only say that it is helpless.

It can only hang on a tree with its tail hanging, acting as a surveillance camera that peeks around everywhere.

"Well..."

Xiao Hei seemed to know that he had a name, and he grinned foolishly. There was no time here, and Hyuga Neji would not age. He frowned and stared at the limp ball in his hands, and took off his coat to wrap it.

"Will he always be like this?"

This was the first sentence Hyuga Neji said after being brought back by the snake.

The snake was always happy to hear people talking, but he didn't know where to begin to explain the little black man who was made up of half and half.

Although it is itself that is competing with others.

"Ugh..." The snake swung its tail anxiously, and its scales hit the tree trunk, making clanging sounds.

Hyuga Neji was not in a hurry. He held Xiao Hei in his arms and turned around to find a place to sit, eight hundred meters away from the residence built by the snake.

Disdain is visible to the naked eye.

Xiao Hei is quite lively, with a pair of pitch-black eyes that almost blend into his skin, and a small ball of white fluff on top of his head that has not started growing yet.

But Neji always felt that the child seemed to have grown up a little compared to when he first saw him.

It's an illusion.

As he thought this, he poked Xiao Hei's cheek with his finger.

A cat-like name given to a cat-like child.

The feel is not soft, but it is full of elasticity, and no matter how you poke it, it looks like a very cute child.

Was he like this as a child?

Neji's thoughts drifted away again. He should have known that he had a second birth as Hyuga Neji.

But he seemed to have never looked in the mirror and rarely explored his own body.

Not to mention observing yourself from an adult's perspective.

He suddenly exerted force with his arms and gently shook the child in his arms.

It's time to cry.

"what!"

The snake suddenly knew what to say. It lowered its head abruptly and looked into Xiao Hei's eyes.

Hyuga Neji was in a daze again, so he naturally didn't see the threat and warning in Xiao Hei's eyes.

This rebellious son even knows how to threaten me!

But snakes are not good-tempered. They will open their mouths when they spit out their tongues.

"He has your and my memories, which are the separated halves of you and me."

"He looks like a child, but it's just an ideological state."

"He can only be in this state now because his consciousness has just been born - but his memories and experiences are not as simple and pure as they seem."

The snake said maliciously: "You think he is cute, but actually he is just acting cute to you."

"If you act coquettishly more, your consciousness will mature and your body will grow up too."

If you were to say what Xiao Hei is, he should be more like himself, the snake thought.

Although it was Hyuga Neji's soul and body that gave birth to Kuro, it was actually him who provided the power and accomplished everything. How could a mere human being have such magical powers!

According to human ethics, it should be the father and Hyuga Neji is the mother.

This rebellious son most likely has the same idea - even if he has the memories of the human Hyuga Neji, the majority are still his own.

"If you like raising a child, then keep it - it will grow faster if someone takes care of it."

The snake said about severing love: "But if you leave it there, it will grow up sooner or later."

Just like it.

Neji weighed the child in his hand, and seemed to be thinking about something in his pure white eyes.

"He..." Neji seemed to know that what he was thinking about were things that were unlikely to happen: "Will he get older?"

It is you who gives your child his or her appearance.

But after all, he couldn't bear to see himself getting old.

The tree trunk shook, and a few invisible leaves floated down. The sound of the snake was sticky, as if it was wet with liquid.

"If you want to see it, why don't you live a little longer?"

"Where do you want to find the answer if you are so anxious?"

"There are not so many things that come out of nothing in this world."

The leaves seemed to be floating more and more, and the house that was originally similar to the Hyuga branch family inexplicably turned into a luxurious palace like the daimyo's residence.

"You already know the answer, so why bother asking me?"

“The most difficult things for humans to achieve are dreams and true intentions.”

"But they live to live..."

This time the snake was not as reckless as before. It poked its head out of the tree slowly, revealing only a huge snake head facing Neji: "You are not afraid of death anymore, what have you found?"

Neji stopped talking again. He just stared blankly at the little Kuro in his arms, rocking and patting him over and over again, just like a mother breastfeeding her child in his memory.

"He doesn't need sleep."

The snake felt that it was a waste of effort - but the child seemed to have grown a little bit, insignificantly.

"He doesn't need to eat or sleep."

Of course, Hyuga Neji here doesn't need it either. Although he is a dead person, he is preserved as a part of the inner world, sandwiched between the outer world and the Pure Land. He will not die, and there will be no rebirth.

“Everything here...”

“Hehehe…Hehehe…!”

Xiao Hei seemed to be born to oppose snakes. As soon as it said something like "no" and "it's useless", Xiao Hei laughed at the person who was doing useless work.

He even closed his eyes tactfully, and his breathing became slow and even, as if he had really fallen asleep.

Hyuga Neji had long passed the stage of arguing with snakes, and he couldn't even tell who he was.

Are I here, and even this child, just like the palace beside me, a mirage created by a snake waving its hands?

He died a long time ago. How can a dead person have a future?

Neji shifted his gaze again, staring at somewhere in space like a wooden man.

Don't look at Xiao Hei or the snake.

He didn't speak, didn't move, and his hands didn't stop moving.

There is no day or night, and no fatigue.

The snake is always busy - it is a creature that gets bored easily.

But it did not get tired of the boring wooden man as it had imagined.

When it is not busy, it will see the young man with white eyes shaking the child in his arms like he did at the beginning - but the child is no longer the same size as before, and is about to burst out.

Not only did his body grow longer, but his clothes also grew longer.

The darker the child, the whiter the clothes he wears.

Snakes always collect all kinds of interesting stories from the outside world, but the birth of each story means the destruction of a soul.

"Even if it's Uzumaki Naruto, there will be a day when I will target him after his death."

"Do you want to hear it?"

The snake saw that the pair of pure white eyes seemed to twitch slightly the moment they heard Uzumaki Naruto.
