Naruto Diary

Good workmanship. "After a moment of silence, the Red Sand Scorpion said.

"Thank you."

Hearing this, Jiao Du rolled his eyes: "It's just like a little girl!"

"..." I narrowed my eyes slightly with no expression on my face, and said softly, "Gender and so on are all floating clouds, right?"

"..." Jiaodu remained silent rationally.

At this time, Xiao Nan said with some embarrassment: "Can I only pick one?"

"No." I said, "Take whatever you like, and you can do it anyway."

"Then let's make a few boys wear them to go out!" Takizawa Mamoru said.

Hearing this, I was a little taken aback, and looked at the trinkets in the basket: "I think they're all neutral?"

"It's quite neutral." Red Sand Scorpion said, with a movement of his fingers, a few red-toned trinkets were pulled by the puppet string and flew into his hand, "However, it's too delicate. For Kakuzu, the temperament is wrong. As for Shou, the subtle self-esteem of a young boy in adolescence."

"...Hmph." Jiaodu hummed softly.

Takizawa rolled his eyes.

I looked at Kakuto, and then at the small and unique handmade ornaments in the basket, silent.

"...I know, I will make whatever you want." I said.Anyway, it takes a few minutes at most to do one, and it doesn't take much effort.

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Nan said first: "Then can I have a pair of blue rose stud earrings?"

"I want a black headband." Mochizuki Qianlan said.

"... Let me see if there are any suitable materials." After a moment of silence, I compromised and took out a larger basket of various loose small objects.

……

I made several trinkets with flying thunder god spells for the two ladies with bright eyes. Later, I felt that as space coordinates, there was really no need for so many, so I simply made another batch of spells with various functions. trinkets.Although limited by the material, the function is not powerful, and it is always better than nothing.

Surprisingly, Nagato and Itachi were very pleasantly surprised by these trinkets with added small-scale enchantments, elementary medical ninjutsu and other techniques.The Akatsuki members who were present at the end did not say how many people there were, and asked me to make an extra batch that they said would be handed over to the village (Yuyin and Konohayin) for research.

"Not all ninjas are as versatile as you are. In fact, the vast majority of ninjas, even entry-level enchantment and medical ninjutsu, cannot. These things, although weak, are not considered in our In my eyes, but for ordinary ninjas, it is already a treasure that can save lives at critical moments." Said Itachi.

"Moreover," Nagato said, "to turn ninjutsu into props, as long as there is a little chakra, even people who don't know ninjutsu can easily use it. This is a very crucial step for the 'gensokyo concept' .”

"...It seems to be like this." I frowned slightly, "I just practiced Chakra micro-manipulation and added some interest to do it, but I didn't realize it at all..."

"...So, you can give yourself more confidence!" Itachi said, "You have never put yourself in the position of 'important person affecting the ninja world', so unless you think about it, you won't Realize how much cutting-edge technology you have mastered."

"Maybe... But, I don't intend to change." After a moment of silence, I still said it myself, "So, you can assign me some tasks appropriately. ——As a ninjutsu researcher."

Itachi sighed lightly: "I still can't understand why you are so stubborn on this matter alone."

"...I am a person who remembers the past life, and I will probably not forget this life in the next life. Therefore, I don't want to encourage my arrogance." I said calmly and firmly.

"...Memories of previous lives... People who have power or status over all living beings are indeed prone to arrogance. ——Although I still don't think you are arrogant." Itachi sighed and finally gave up persuading me.

At this time, Nagato suddenly said quietly: "I don't quite understand your feelings... However, since you don't want to stand in the foreground, then as your senior brother and brother of the same clan, I will support you. The sky. Not just for you and the people I cherish, but for myself."

"...thanks a lot." was all I could say.

I think, compared to another Uzumaki Naruto, I am actually lucky.

97. Homecoming

The gift of candied haws that I bought on a whim was finally given away after some hesitation, and of course I was ridiculed for being naive again.However, it is your loss not to enjoy this delicacy anyway.As I thought about it, a little bit of uneasiness disappeared.

Today's Xiao members naturally have their own private space in Yuyin Village.Itachi volunteered to take me to choose my own room.

I think he probably has something to say.

And so is it.

"Naruto, when do you plan to go back and have a look? The third Hokage-sama, Tsunade-sama, and Jiraiya-sama really want to see you." Itachi said to me on the way to the residence area of ​​Akatsuki members.

"..." I hesitated and didn't know how to speak.

"...don't want to go back?" Itachi asked softly.

Shaking my head, I whispered, "It's just... I don't know how to face it."

Itachi was a little surprised: "Why do you think so?"

"...It's too ugly." I whispered, "It's too ugly to be killed just like that..."

"..." Itachi's eyes widened a little because of surprise, and then he put one hand on the top of my head and rubbed it.

"No one will blame you for this!" He said with a smile on the corner of his lips, "No, it would be better to say that he would blame himself for it."

"...Even so, I still feel shameless." I turned my face away slightly.

"Then you can't just keep hiding, right?" Itachi smiled gently, his eyes crooked, "I don't seem to have anything to do tomorrow, so why don't you go back and have a look? The companions who were at the same time as you have grown up like two different people."

"... After all, it's been three years."

"...Indeed." Itachi said with emotion, "Time flies so fast."

"..." After a while of hesitation, I finally said it, "...Did you see the end of the cultivation of immortal arts?" I suddenly asked without beginning or end.

Itachi was stunned for a moment, then understood: "Ah."

"Then..." I hesitated.It's only one word, but I know he understands what I mean.

"...the immortality dreamed of by ambitious people, suddenly placed within easy reach... I was really surprised when I realized it! I couldn't believe it for a long time... But, sincerely It is not a bad thing, but a very good thing. This means that the world that human beings can reach will be wider! ... Of course, this also means a more difficult predicament. But, "going out 'There's always a price to be paid for this kind of thing, isn't it?' Itachi calmly said such a sentence that was obviously well thought out.

"..."

The feeling in my heart, I can't tell whether it is more gratification or more awe.But, after all, be happy.

"...I am very happy." The complexity in my heart was faithfully reflected by my voice, "No matter what form it takes, my actions have indeed brought positive meaning to the world."

"Yes." Itachi said with a smile, "Naruto, you changed the world."

"..."

"Changed the world"... Even if it's just an insignificant sprout, but I actually did it...

But, I still really want to see you, another...

……

------

After three years of absence, Konoha's streets, scenery, and even the people who come and go seem to have not changed much.Even in the face of tense situations, the overall atmosphere is as serene and trusting as ever.I think this is also the reason why I still love this village even though I have experienced pain as a human being.

Although the incarnation of the crow had only carefully observed the outskirts of the village for a few days not long ago, when he was there, he still felt a lot of emotion.

"It's a wonderful feeling, isn't it?" Itachi beside him said happily.

"Yes." I wholeheartedly agree.Today, I have put on the "Konghua" look again.After all, there is a precedent of my father, so it is always inconvenient for a "dead person" to appear suddenly.Moreover, how Konoha will explain to other villages is also a problem.Thanks to the blessing of Uchiha Madara, the popularity of "Uzumaki Naruto" was surprisingly high.

"Were you in the same mood at the beginning?" I couldn't help asking.

"It's almost..." Looking back at that time, Itachi also felt a little emotional, "At first, I thought that there would never be a chance to come back."

"Things in the world are always wonderful, and no one can tell what the future will be." Red Sand Scorpion said, "Three years ago, I would never have dreamed that I would walk in Muye Village in this life so openly."

"Indeed." Itachi nodded sympathetically.

"...Speaking of which, what are you here for?" I asked the red sand scorpion, "Also, I wanted to ask before, when did you regain your physical body?"

"On behalf of Yuyin, I come to regularly exchange the research results of a new medicinal herb with Konoha's medical class. ——Anyway, although 'Xiao' is an organization independent of Yuyin, but under the circumstances of the same leader, who They won't be treated separately." The red sand scorpion said lightly, "As for the physical body, Nagato used the power of reincarnation eyes and senjutsu to help me reshape it based on the original 'core' two years ago. "

"I see." I nodded in understanding.

The three of them walked for a while without saying a word, and the red sand scorpion suddenly murmured and said: "...I remember you said that Uchiha Madara is likely to take the members of Yue on a long voyage?"

"At present, he has expressed this intention, but he has not made a clear decision. However, he will definitely bring some people with him. A long-distance voyage with a distance of three and a half maps is not just a matter of driving a small boat by one person.
