The battlefield was filled with a strong smell of blood and was littered with corpses lying all over the place. The moon in the sky seemed to have been dyed blood red.

"Uchiha... Uchiha with only one Sharingan..."

Haruka walked through the battlefield, searching for people who fit the description among the fallen bodies.

They are all Kirigakure ninjas. It seems that she is a little late and can't find anyone.

On this battlefield, the only person who somewhat fits the description is a white-haired man wearing a mask.

Haruka knew him, Kakashi Hatake, the Copy Ninja of Konoha.

Falling next to Kakashi was a girl with short brown hair.

There was a big hole in her heart, and anyone could tell she was dead.

Haruka squatted down next to Kakashi and checked his pulse.

It's just that he was temporarily unconscious due to excessive energy consumption. Okay, don't worry about him, just leave him alone.

Qinghe moved to the side again and gathered the girl's scattered chakra.

In order to come to this world, she has locked up most of her power, and she has to unlock it if she wants to save people.

"I'll take you back, okay?" Qinghe pointed at the corpse on the ground and asked the girl for her consent in a friendly manner.

The girl standing next to him blinked in confusion: "Sorry, I don't remember anything. Do you know me?"

The girl lost her memory, but vaguely remembered that she seemed to be waiting for someone? Or was she going to look for someone?

"I don't know her." Haruka had never seen this girl in Konoha.

Judging from the situation at the scene, this girl might have died here in her last reincarnation.

"Eh?" The girl looked at Qinghe blankly: "Don't you know him?"

The girl didn't understand why he took her back if he didn't know her?

She suddenly remembered something and shook her head to reject Qinghe: "Don't save me, there is a monster inside me."

Qinghe sensed that in addition to the girl's chakra, there was also a somewhat familiar power dissipating in the wind.

"The Tailed Beast? Are you a Jinchūriki?"

The girl shook her head again. She really didn’t remember anything. “I don’t know. But a voice in my heart told me that the monster will go berserk.”

"It's okay. It won't go berserk. The tailed beasts are pretty easy to coax."

Haruka gathered the chakra of the tailed beasts in the air and put it back into the girl's body.

After allowing the tailed beast to temporarily maintain the girl's physical activity, Haruhe picked her up.

"Come home with me first? We'll talk about finding your memory later."

"Why?" The girl still couldn't understand. The other party didn't know her, so why did he save her?

Qinghe held the girl's body with one hand, and then reached out to the girl's soul with the other hand: "Since you are here, bring some local specialties with you."

She's dead anyway, and staying here won't change anything.

Qinghe picked up a corpse, then picked up a soul, went back to fight, and there would be one more worker in the world.

"Huh?" The girl tried to understand.

Although she couldn't understand it, the girl felt familiar with Haruka. Those blue eyes were so gentle.

The girl put her hand on Qinghe's: "Is it really okay?"

"It doesn't matter. I used to get along well with Jiu Lama."

Qinghe hugged one, held the other, and then looked at Kakashi on the ground with a confused look.

She was in a dilemma now. Her hands were already full. How could she take him with her? Should she wake him up?

Qinghe's toes are itching to move, so why not just kick it gently?

Before she could act, Kakashi's brows slowly furrowed and he struggled to open his eyes.

Kakashi's mind was in a mess. One moment he was thinking of Obito who was crushed under a huge rock, and the next moment he was thinking of Rin who had fallen down.

By the way, Lin...

Kakashi struggled to get up and quickly looked where Lin was, only to see a strange white-haired girl.

She had no ninja insignia or weapons, and she was wearing a simple version of the twelve-layer kimono that was so loose that it was stacked up in layers.

Why was she hugging Lin? What was she going to do to Lin?

Kakashi immediately identified her as an enemy: "Who are you? Let go of Lin!"

"Will you come with me?" Qinghe also asked for his opinion.

Although his chakra was completely exhausted, Kakashi still picked up the kunai tremblingly: "Put Lin... down!"

Qinghe confirmed again: "You won't go with me?"

If he doesn't want to go with her, then she really doesn't care.

"You are not allowed to insult the corpse of my companion!" Kakashi rushed towards her.

"?" Qinghe was really confused. Could he please be reasonable? Which eye of his saw her insulting the corpse?

Adhering to the friendly treaty between the white-haired people, she patiently warned: "You'd better calm down."

If he shouts for war again, Qinghe will fight back.

Kakashi's attack movements were very stiff, and it was difficult for him to move his body.

He knew in his heart that such a reckless attack would definitely be avoided, and he might even be killed in return.

But, enough is enough... Stop taking away the important things from him...

"Shut up!"

A line of blood and tears flowed from Kakashi's Sharingan, which could not be closed. He quickly formed seals with both hands and increased his speed in rushing towards Haruwa.

Chou - Mao - Shen

Chakra converted into blue electricity gathered in his hands, making a piercing sound like a thousand birds chirping.

"Chidori!"

The continuous blows made Kakashi lose his composure.

He just wanted, at least, to protect the last bit of bond.

"?" Qinghe felt very troubled. She thought she was communicating with him in a very calm manner, right?

Oh my, this is unbelievable. It's fine if he was just furious, but he actually yelled at her. Qinghe hated people who were difficult to communicate with.

"Do you still remember him?" Qinghe asked Lin beside him.

Lin's expression was still confused. She couldn't remember, but she felt that he should be a very important person to her.

"No... Kaka... I don't remember..."

“…wait…please don’t hurt him…” Lin grabbed Qinghe’s hand with a pleading look on her face.

Just don’t remember.

Qinghe let go of Lin's hand and turned Lin's soul into a small lavender bead.

Now that she has one hand free, let's fight one-on-one.

After Haruka blocked Chidori, he grabbed Kakashi's neck even faster and threw him to the ground.

Kakashi was smashed into the ground, and this time he really couldn't stand up.

Blood flowed down Kakashi's forehead. He covered his Sharingan which was in great pain, while his other eye was still staring at Haruwa.

But the pain also made him regain some reason. He was a little calmer now, "Put down my companion."

"No matter who you are, with so many dead bodies on the battlefield, she's not your only choice, right?"

"Companions?" Qinghe looked down at him and sneered softly.

The smile on her face was very nice, but the words she said were not very nice: "The move just now was so cool, is that the one you used to pierce her heart?"

Kakashi froze, shaking in pain.

Qinghe's voice was very soft, her tone was neither hurried nor slow, and seemed a little coquettish.

It sounds like love expressed to a lover, or like the devil's whisper when casting a curse.

If it were a different scene, Kakashi might have blushed and become dazed after hearing it.

"Eh? Didn't he kill her with that move?"

Kakashi felt as if his throat was locked and his limbs became cold.

Lin, he killed her with Chidori, but that was because...

Qinghe showed an expression that he was really helpless, and tried to comfort him: "Okay, okay, it's for the sake of the village, I understand."

"It is right to inherit the will of fire and make sacrifices to protect Konoha."

"People are going to die anyway, but it's not good to endanger the village, eh."

They were obviously words of comfort, but they always sounded harsh.

"No..." No... It shouldn't be like this...

Kakashi wanted to retort, but he was speechless.

Seeing his painful look, Qinghe smiled and asked knowingly: "What's wrong? Are you unhappy about protecting the village? Why do you have this expression?"

She put Rin's body down, squatted down next to Kakashi, and said in amazement, "As expected, people from big villages are kind-hearted."

Qinghe's fingers gently traced the gaping hole in Lin's heart: "Ah, after all, in our little place, we never call stepping stones companions."

Kakashi's face turned even paler, and warm liquid ran across his face, and it was unclear whether it was blood or tears.

"Hmm?" Qinghe came up to him and comforted him: "Smile, you are a hero who protected the village~"

Haruka stretched out his finger, pressed the corner of Kakashi's mouth through the mask, and gently pulled it up.

Her fingertips were stained with Lin's blood, and the sticky smell of blood penetrated through the cloth, into Kakashi's nostrils, and into his internal organs.

[Kakashi, why...?]

Kakashi suddenly heard the voices of Obito and Rin in his ears. He covered his mouth and began to dry heave. The world in front of him was blood red, and his hands were blood red.

[Kakashi, why...?]

I can't wash it off... I can't wash it off anymore...

Haruka let go of the collapsed Kakashi and picked up Rin's body again.

Just as she was about to leave, several kunai were suddenly shot at her from the side and rear.

More than a dozen black shadows flashed, six in the front and ten in the back. They were Konoha ninjas who came to support.

"Captain! Are you okay?" Someone helped Kakashi up.

Haruka didn't know whether their captain was good or not, she only knew that she didn't get the one-eyed Uchiha and was inexplicably bullied.

She was a little tired after excessive socializing today, so she decided to go back first.

A light voice came into Kakashi's ears: "Leader, Qing Kingdom."

These Konoha ninjas were still on guard against Haruka, but the next second, she disappeared out of thin air in front of them.
