【From the Snake】Go back and come

When the news that Orochimaru was killed by Sasuke came, Jiraiya smiled and said to Tsunade, "I didn't expect that guy to die."

Tsunade looked at Jiraiya like this and shook his head, "Don't laugh at Jiraiya, you smile ugly when you're sad."

"Is there? This is also a woman's intuition? Then you guessed wrong." Zilai also teased.

Tsunade said nothing, just shook his head and sighed.

It seems that I am really not sad, nor particularly heartbroken, just a little frustrated.

Until dusk, he bid farewell to Tsunade and returned to the temporary hut.

The warm yellow sunlight shines on his desk through the window, and something is shining with a clear light.

It was a pair of eight-foot Qiong Gouyu earrings.

It is impossible for him to admit his mistake until he died. It was the pair of gouyu earrings that he gave to Dashewan that year, and has always replaced him by Dashewan's side.

He suddenly burst into tears.

Isn't the young man's oath very meaningless? He clearly said that he would protect you and not let you die before me.

But you guy, if you want to cut off the fetters, don't wear it all the time, why give it back to me now?

Are you stupid?The heart that is handed over does not mean that it can be returned.

Come to think of it, he has always been a person who seldom cries.

Because he was an orphan since he was a child, he knew that crying was useless.

He had been looked down upon, and that unusual white hair made him even more excluded and isolated.

He can only cover up with a smile, and tell others that he is not sad or sad with a smile, so that others will lose their interest in hurting him.

All his tears for decades were because of Orochimaru.

He couldn't laugh, that person hurt him too much.

The kunai that Orochimaru stuck in his chest that year left a barb in his heart, and every time the heart beats, it hurts him unceasingly.

Now that thorn was pulled out following the death of that person, tearing off the flesh and blood, leaving only a bloody wound.

The wound won't heal, it still hurts, it still bleeds.

Still...will be sad.

After that day, Jilai also left the village to investigate the Akatsuki organization, and soon brought back important information about the leader of the Akatsuki organization.

In the Hokage room, Tsunade anxiously asked Jiraiya to elaborate, but Jiraiya calmly invited her to have a drink.

In the izakaya, Zirai was not drunk, on the contrary, Tsunade drank a bottle of wine, and became more and more drunk.

Jiraiya also discussed information with Tsunade, and told the other party that he decided to go to Yuyin Village alone to investigate the leader of the Akatsuki organization.

"It's too dangerous!" Tsunade repeatedly stopped the opponent.

"I am one of Konoha's Sannin, you understand the meaning of this too!"

Tsunade stared at Jiraiya with wide eyes, his hands clenched into fists trembling, "I'm sorry, I always let you play such a disadvantaged role."

Ji Lai also laughed loudly when he heard the words, "What happened to you all of a sudden?"

Facing Jiraiya's free and easy, Tsunade can only say to him, "I know you have always regretted not recovering Orochimaru, and have been investigating his whereabouts alone all these years."

Silence stretched between the two of them, too quiet in the hustle and bustle around them.

"Now there is no need for that, so the sequel of my novel can be released as soon as possible."

It's not necessary, I really can't chase anymore, I chose to let go, and you are dead, now I have no choice but to chase after you.

"Reality is stranger than fiction." Tsunade held his wine glass, "I didn't expect that guy to die. At that time, the three of us and three generations of old men..."

"At that time, Tsunade at the airport has now become a Hokage with big breasts. The times are constantly evolving." Jiraiya also ended the other party's topic, "You who used to be beautiful are now an old woman over fifty years old. It's really helpless to think that you still have so many thoughts about the people who passed away."

Jiraiya also took a sip of a drink, "However, this yearning will only increase in the future." He raised his head and smiled and said to Tsunade, "But when I calm down and think about it, I feel different. My mission is To be a role model for the next generation and help them grow, for this, I can risk my life with a smile at any time, I think this is the handsomeness of the old man."

He thought of those who sacrificed to protect Konoha, those who died at the hands of his beloved apprentice, those who died at the hands of his favorite person, his mentor, the Third Hokage.

Tsunade wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything.

Leaving the izakaya, Tsunade vomited in the alley because he drank too much alcohol.

"Really, your wine taste is worse than mine, find a place to rest." Zi Lai also thoughtfully patted his friend on the back.

Sitting on Konoha's bench with Tsunade under the setting sun, Jiraiya also felt unprecedented peace.

When Tsunade told him that he would come back alive, he was taken aback, "Will you cry for me when I die? I'm very happy, but it won't be the same as it was then?" He smiled badly.

"You idiot." Tsunade scolded him lightly.

Jiraiya also knew that Tsunade needed his company, after all, there were only two of them left in the same era.

But he knew he had to go.

He knew that the crime was more or less serious, but he felt that even if he died in battle, at least he would not regret it.

What needs to be done has been done, and what needs to be done has been done.If there is any emotion, it is only resentment towards Konoha.

And that kid Naruto, I really want to watch him realize his dream.If it's you, you can definitely get Sasuke back, right?

So, before leaving, he could say goodbye to Tsunade with a smile.

He said, you always lose every bet, so just bet that I will die.

He obviously wanted to confess his love and fulfill his childhood dream, but then he thought that he had always loved Orochimaru, and felt that there was no need to add trouble to Tsunade before leaving because of such willful things.

He said thank you to Tsunade, said that the man who is dumped is always very strong, and said joking words.

He gave Tsunade his love when he was young and ignorant, and gave Orochimaru all the love of his life.

When he goes, it is the same as when he came.

Same, alone.

Because I want to protect you, so it doesn't matter whether you suffer or suffer.

Jiraiya's shadow was stretched very long by the setting sun, and the stalwart figure was almost swallowed by the rays of the setting sun. Tsunade looked at Jiraiya's encouraging gesture to her, and couldn't stop crying.

She knew that the other party was determined to die, and her damn instinct told her that this would be their farewell.

But she could only watch him leave and die.

Are you two leaving me?

Me, it’s okay for you to make mistakes and be stupid, in my heart you are still the best of the year.One is quiet and the other is noisy. It feels like the years will not leave traces on you, and you can protect each other for a lifetime together, but you are going to leave all of a sudden.

What is there to thank me for, what to thank me for?Haven't abandoned the village, or uncovered your scars?

Jiraiya, you've always liked that guy, right?Maybe more than that, you love him, don't you?

You do not know?I have long seen that a woman's intuition is never wrong, not to mention we were so close, weren't we?

I was shocked at first, and I didn't sleep all night the day I made my judgment clear.

But what about the secular world I feel in the end?We don't live our lives for others to see. Only we know whether we are happy or not, right?

Decades have passed, we can't go back, right?At that time, you were lying on the hospital bed and said that you would go back. All of these cannot be realized, right?

In fact, these years, I think my greatest wish is that both of you and Dashemaru can be well, nothing else, as long as you are well.We are Sannin, aren't we?No matter how you change, this will never change.

You said that I bear the pain and longing brought by the dead, but I want to pray for the living more, and I want the living to be happy!

Why have I been saying goodbye all my life, Rotoki, Bro, teacher, Orochimaru, it's you now.

Jiraiya, as you wish, I bet you will die, I bet you will not come back.

This is the only bet I want to lose in my life.
