In 1956, Uchiha Itachi, who became a Jounin, joined the Dark Group at the age of 12, and another Chuonin joined the Hiizaki Tatsuya Group. In the early spring of the 57th year of Koba, Uchiha Itachi became the leader of the Dark Group. Similarly, in the 57th year of Koba's reign, the Fuuhana Temple's Miyazawa and Twelve Hunting Moon, who had become special Jounin, joined the Recovery Department. This year, Fuuhana Temple was 13 years old, and Twelve Hunting Moon was 18 years old. Not long after, Mitarai Washing Red Bean, who had escaped from the shadows, also rose to fame. The twelve Ninja Guardians that Asama was in became famous. At the same time, there was also a famous troublemaker, Uzumaki Naruto.
On the way, a thin figure was walking slowly under the setting sun, as if he was talking about something. "Ah ah ~ Seriously, I don't have any work. It's so boring!”Feng Hua Temple stretched his back and stretched his arms. She was still wearing the same kimono that Kakashi had given her back then, and the sword of the grass pheasant, the Red Lotus of the Ghostfire, was at her waist. Her long hair was tied into a ponytail that reached her waist. The little figure from back then had already grown up.
Ever since Weasel joined the Dark Group, they rarely saw each other. Now that he had become the team leader of the Dark Group, he was so busy that he could not even see his shadow. Unlike himself and Moon, after joining the Recovery Department, they were so free that they had nothing to say. Other than reporting to the police every day, they were almost like unemployed vagrants...
The Muye Recovery Department was a different kind of existence, just like the Dark Group. The full name of the Recovery Department was the Tracking and Killing Unit. Their job was to capture all the Ninjas who had defected or kill them on the spot, destroying all useful information and materials. The Dark Group was known as the Assassination Tactics Special Forces. They were responsible for intelligence work and protecting Naruto and Kinoha Village. These two special elite troops were directly under Naruto, and were appointed and dispatched by Naruto's past generations!
"Brother Kakashi and Weasel are both in the Dark Group. If I had known earlier, I would have followed them to the Dark Group. It's all my third generation grandfather's fault. He said that the Recovery Department's salary was high and the work was easy, and tricked me into going to the Recovery Department!”Feng Hua Temple grumbled in a low voice unhappily," Hehe, but fortunately, there's that fellow Twelve Hunting Moon!”Just as she was muttering to herself, a round shadow descended from the sky…
Hmm? Fenghua Temple, who noticed the abnormality, turned around to look at that thing. In the end, before they could see what it was, it was smashed solid!
Bang!
"Ahhhhh, my nose ~ Who dares to attack my Wind Flower Temple in Woodleaf Village!？”With stars in her eyes, Feng Hwa Temple rubbed her nose as she won the lottery. There was a ball that kept bouncing up on the ground beside her…Ever since Feng Hwa Temple became a Jounin, she had never encountered anyone who dared to attack her, the Undying Red Lotus Fire, in Kinoba Village.
A child's voice rang out." Ah! You hit someone!" A figure ran over and said,"Big sister, are you a ninja? He couldn't even dodge a ball. He was really weak!”
Feng Hua Temple, who had finally regained his composure, shouted at the figure in front of him,"Hey, kid, don't you know that playing with a ball on the road is wrong? What if he smashed the window? What if the old man and the old lady were smashed?？You…eh?" After seeing the person in front of him, the energetic Feng Hua Temple was stunned." Uzumaki Naruto!？”
"Eh? Big sister, you know me?" Naruto Uzumaki asked with a confused expression. He had never seen this purple-haired lady before. How did she know him?
Another intersection appeared above the head of Fuuhwa Temple. Fuuhwa Temple grabbed Naruto's collar and said angrily,""Hey, look carefully. Am I that old?？Call me 'big sister', you're not allowed to call me' big sister'!”
Naruto looked fearfully at Fuuhana Temple, who was about to draw his sword. He swallowed and whispered,""Yes…Sister…"
Fuuhana Temple let go of Naruto with satisfaction and patted his head." Mm, good, that's right! I'm Miyazawa of Fenghua Temple, Koba Jounin, a member of the Recovery Department!”
When Naruto heard this, he was so shocked that his mouth formed an 'O' shape. After a long time, he asked in surprise,"Sister is…Jounin? Was this a joke? You're already a Jounin at such a young age?”
Even if I'm younger, I'm older than you! "Humph, what? Did you take a blow?" This fellow was covered in dust and dirt. He did not know what mischievous things he had done…
"Tsk!" Naruto shook his head." I, Uzumaki Naruto, am going to become Naruto in the future. How could I be defeated?!"？”
"Yes, you have ambition! However, before becoming Naruto, it wouldn't be good if you starved to death!”The Fuka Temple pulled Naruto to the opposite side of the road without any explanation. Naruto bared his fangs and shouted," What are you doing?!" This fellow was clearly so hungry that his stomach was rumbling. He really did not know how to take care of himself. Speaking of which, he had never taken him into consideration. It was really unexpected! His childhood had not been very good. If not for his strong and optimistic spirit, he would have collapsed long ago! As expected of Naruto Uzumaki!
"Shut up! Also, call her 'Big Sister'!" Fenghua Temple dragged Naruto into Le Yile Ramen Restaurant." Here, don't stand on ceremony if you want to eat!”
"Ah ah ~ Yile Ramen! Give me a bowl of my favorite Yile Ramen!”As expected, Naruto was not polite at all. He stared at the ramen with his twinkling eyes, as if he was afraid that they would suddenly disappear.
Uh…Fuuhana Temple looked at Naruto with a cramp on his face. This guy is really not polite…Look at the empty bowls piled up at the side. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5…Naruto, you are indeed an invincible big eater!
"Boss, one more bowl!" Naruto said happily again.
At this moment, the Fenghua Temple was already crying. They really shouldn't have agreed to treat him to ramen in a moment of excitement! After bidding farewell to the big eater, Naruto, Fuuhana Temple turned around and went home. Watching the small figure leave happily, a faint smile appeared on Fuuhana Temple's face. "Actually, sometimes, a little bit of action can affect the mood of oneself and the people around you.”
Rumble. The sky darkened. Unknowingly, gloomy dark clouds had covered the sky, so thick that it looked as if they were about to fall. Dazzling lightning would occasionally wander within, emitting earth-shattering sounds as it continuously illuminated the gray sky.
It was probably a rainstorm. The Fenghua Temple looked up at the gorgeous lightning, and its expression was slightly happy. Strangely enough, he did not know why he especially liked the sky with lightning and thunder. He liked to see the merciless rainstorm pouring down from the sky and washing away all things. He liked the manic roars in the dark clouds.”Feng Hua Temple shook his head to get rid of his strange thoughts and hurried home.
However, it seemed that it was destined that Feng Hua Temple would not be able to return home smoothly today. At this moment, a member of the Dark Group appeared in front of her. "Feng Hua Temple's Gong He, Lord Naruto has ordered you to rush to the Recovery Department's headquarters!”After saying that, that person disappeared in a flash.
……
He was really straightforward. As expected of someone from the Dark Group.。。Feng Hua Temple's eyes cramped as she thought of this. She sighed and helplessly turned around to rush back to the place where she had run out not long ago.
Bean-sized raindrops fell down, turning the ground dark in the blink of an eye. Immediately after, the rain poured down from the sky, and the sound of the rain gradually became louder. Accompanied by the deafening thunder in the sky, an early summer rainstorm descended on the earth with great momentum. In just a few breaths, the Fenghua Temple was drenched. The kimono was soaked in the rain and stuck to her body enthusiastically. Her cute ponytail was also stuck to her wet clothes dejectedly.
"Ah ah ~ Seriously, I got close to nature for free!”She could barely open her eyes. The violent rain made her cheeks hurt slightly, and her eyes involuntarily wanted to expel the rain. It seemed that she couldn't reach it at this speed. With a tsk, she rushed to the headquarters of the Recovery Department like a ninja.
The atmosphere in the Recovery Department building was a little depressing. Fenghua Temple wiped the rain off their faces and rushed to the Consul General's office. Even the most stupid person would feel that something had happened here! She pushed open the door and exclaimed,"Third generation grandfather?"”
The third generation Naruto turned around with a pipe in her mouth and looked at the battered and exhausted Fenghua Temple. She looked like she had just been fished out of the water, leaving obvious water stains wherever she walked. He frowned and said,"Little Gong He, I'm really sorry." I just received news that the captain of the third team of the recovery department died in the line of duty…"
"What is it? " Captain, he…" Feng Hua Temple looked at the people in the room in shock. Twelve Hunting Moon lowered his head and did not say anything. The others also had sad expressions. Although Feng Hua Temple had only joined the third team of the recovery department for less than half a year, the impression that the gentle captain had left on her was not just a little. Captain…just left like that? Fuuhana Temple didn't know if the moisture on his face was from the rain or tears. The gentle captain's words and smiles seemed to appear in his eyes again. Miyazaki Ye, only twenty-five years old, was gentle and amiable to his subordinates, and was a kind person. He was the captain of the third team of the Recovery Department, who was nicknamed the " Sunshine Old Man " by the people around him...
" Not too long ago, we placed his cenotaph in the mausoleum garden…Because you have the greatest potential in the third team, and you have a special blood heir limit, we have decided to appoint you as the captain of the third team of the recovery team. I hope you can take on Miyazaki Ye's responsibilities and wishes."”With a look, a person in charge next to him handed the transfer order to Feng Hua Temple, as well as the captain's badge of the Recovery Department.
After receiving the transfer order and the captain's badge, Feng Hua Temple's expression was sorrowful as he said desolately,""I see."
"Work hard, don't let down everyone's expectations!”Twelve Hunting Moon patted Feng Hua Temple's shoulder. He wanted to say something to comfort them, but in the end, he kept his mouth shut and left with everyone.
Standing in front of a tombstone in the mausoleum garden, Fenghua Temple quietly looked at the name and photo on it. The rain continued to rain mercilessly on the ground. The newly erected tombstones were moistened again and again. Miyazaki Ye's face was a little blurry in the rain, and a few mourning flowers were also destroyed. This was the first time he had encountered someone he was familiar with suddenly disappearing like this. He had left this world and would never return. He would sleep forever underground. In a trance, that person's voice and smile still appeared in his mind. This was a living person! Fenghua Temple put down the flowers in her hands while trembling." She was clearly…still here yesterday, and she was still arranging her own work…How could she…"
Once again, she felt the sudden and unexpected death. Just a moment ago, it was still…what was death? No longer existed, no longer breathing, no heartbeat, no warmth, turning into a pile of dust, returning to the yellow soil! "Only a cenotaph was left behind…not even a corpse!”What would people think when they died? What was Captain thinking when he left? Have you ever regretted it? Did the fourth generation Naruto ever regret it? Did the people who died for Muye ever regret it? What did death feel like? Perhaps, I now understand how big brother Kakashi and the others felt when they stood here! Mourning the dead, recalling the past, cherishing the present, and protecting the future! Fenghua Temple seemed to see the figure who always liked to be late. Every day, he would come here to reminisce and be firm! However, how could he find the direction he had lost?
The captain had left, and he had taken over his position and taken on this responsibility. In the future, should he follow the captain's will or continue with his own persistence? However, they were all people who had inherited the will of fire. It was actually the same no matter how they walked…right!
Looking up, all that was erected on this land were small stone tablets. Under each stone tablet was buried a person who had sacrificed their life for their own defense. Regardless of the outcome, they were happy, right? They had sacrificed their lives for their own defense, which had resulted in the prosperity and peace of this land! Love was very simple, but the heart was very warm. Stick to a belief, continue to move forward towards your goal, constantly strengthen your heart, and constantly chase after the footsteps of your predecessors! A person's strength was weak, but a firm belief was infinitely powerful. Behind a will, there were countless beliefs and persistence. The love of protection was transmitted, and the will of fire was burning!
" Be firm in your beliefs, persevere in your direction, protect your own protection, be unwavering, and keep moving forward. That's enough! What do you think, Captain?" Feng Hua Temple wiped away the rainwater on the tombstone, and the captain's smile became clear again. The storm receded, and the dark clouds dispersed. The sun shone on the sky and the earth. The leaves were filled with freshness and vitality after the rain." Sorrow will always pass, and people can't stay in the past. As a ninja, you have your own path to take. You must be firm in your heart and protect your beliefs. The sun will always shine, right, Brother Kakashi?”Turning around, Feng Hua Temple looked at the figure in front of her. There was a hint of realization and understanding in her tone.
Kakashi looked at Fenghua Temple, his eyes revealing his own sorrow and confusion. "Gong He…"
Walking up to Kakashi, Fenghua Temple took off his mask without permission. Looking at the handsome but confused face, he said,""Brother, are you still lost? Senior White Tooth left in a hurry because he was lost. Could it be that his brother also wanted to do the same? Senior, he…was not a failure. He was just temporarily lost. Presumably, Senior already understands and doesn't want Big Brother to continue like this! Brother, everyone makes mistakes. The mistakes of the past cannot be changed, but the opportunity now cannot be lost. Do you want to drown in that regret and pain forever? You have your own understanding and persistence, your own ideas and direction, so why are you still so confused? Senior Dai Tu and Senior Lin will always protect you. Please don't waver and walk on unwaveringly! Everyone would make mistakes and be confused. This was the existence of humans! The mistakes of those people who made Senior White Tooth bear pressure, whether they correct them or not, are their lives. However, we still have our own path! Don't dwell on the past anymore. Look forward, brother. There will be people around you who will continue your will! No matter what others are like, you have a trusted partner by your side. We are all partners who persist in our beliefs, comrades, powerful backup, and spiritual support for each other!”
Kakashi looked at the Fenghua Temple in shock. His quiet eyes were filled with encouragement and trust. It had been nine years. The girl in front of him had already existed in his life for nine years. This time, it seemed that he had finally seen her clearly! Kakashi stretched out his arms and hugged the temple tightly. He buried his head in her shoulder, his body trembling uncontrollably.
With a slightly sour nose, Feng Hwa Temple tried hard to squeeze the tears in his eyes back to the bottom of his heart and patted Kakashi's shoulder." Brother, just this once. You can only cry once! In the future, tears will no longer belong to you!”Hatake Kakashi, who had been known as a child prodigy since he was young, had been depressed because of his father's death. He had lost himself in the surging sorrow and boundless pressure. When his most important companion had left, when his most respected teacher had left, that self-blame and sorrow had pushed him into the dark abyss. He could not forgive his mistakes, could not agree with what he had done, and was immersed in the black hole of his past memories every day. He allowed his regret to consume him. Although he always smiled and joked that he was 'lost on the path of life', in fact, that smile was extremely bitter. He was really lost on the path of his life!
Nodding his head slightly, Kakashi allowed his tears to flow freely. Yes, just this once. In the future, he would never cry again. He would never be…lost again! Father, teacher, Dai Tu, Lin, I hope you can live well over there!
