Chapter 318 It’s Not a Sin for a Man to Cry
"Why does this white-haired guy look familiar?"
In the classroom of the ninja school, Naruto said this to the infatuated Haruno Sakura and the even more "maverick" facial paralysis boy Uchiha Sasuke.
At this time, there were only three of them left in the classroom. All the friends in the other groups had been taken away by their respective leading jounin or chuunin teachers. As for the trio of Mirai, Shiro and Kimimaro, they were not there at all today. Did not appear in the ninja school.
And what Naruto pointed his finger at was undoubtedly Hatake Kakashi, the belated captain of Team 7.
Kakashi has been the captain of the ANBU for many years, but was recently transferred out for various reasons...or it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was transferred out specifically for Naruto. When he was working as an ANBU, he would occasionally appear next to Hagoromo. Maybe Naruto had glimpsed him inadvertently, so he felt a little familiar.
As for Shirogane's title...the other two friends didn't think there was anything wrong. After all, Kakashi was too slow and made everyone anxious and anxious. Of course they would be resentful.
Facing Naruto's accusation, Kakashi's expression on his face and his dead fish eyes did not change at all... Because of his special outfit, his dead fish eyes were his entire expression.
Then, Kakashi stretched out a finger and scratched the corner of his eye, and then responded in a lazy tone as if he had not woken up after sleeping for eighteen hours, "Shiroma?"
"Or I should tell someone that in the mouth of a new graduate, all people with white hair are collectively referred to as white hair..."
As he said that, he really made a gesture of preparing to turn around and leave.
"Wait!"
Naruto was stunned for a moment, and then immediately realized what was happening. He immediately grabbed Kakashi.
There were mainly three people who educated Naruto from childhood to adulthood. Leaving aside the red-haired girl of the same age, the other two were an old white-haired uncle. This person's "harmfulness" can be ruled out to a limited extent, while the remaining one was An old man with white hair and a boyish face. With Naruto's brain, he could probably imagine his reaction when he heard being called white hair.
And the fate of those who dare to call him that...
Let's put it this way, in the past few years, Naruto has been added to the energy gathering ring sooner or later, but the bad thing is that by the time he joined, it was already too late.
At that time, the only person in the energy-gathering ring who couldn't gather energy was himself - had he been scorched by electricity?
Frankly speaking, Hagoromo is still proficient in all kinds of games, so in order to avoid being treated more cruelly, facing Kakashi's threat, Naruto-kun immediately compromised at this time.
But this also made him more determined that Bai Mao has no good people...
Such childish tricks to threaten children were of course just Kakashi's joke. He wouldn't really go to Hagoromo, it would be better to scare Naruto into losing his temper.
Sasuke and Sakura were confused at this time, what happened? Why did the friend who was so high-spirited just kneel down in an instant?
Little did they know that Naruto had been taught by a ninja who "had all kinds of dissatisfaction".
But in fact, there was something really wrong with Kakashi's late arrival this time. He went to Yuyi's place before to explain how to arrange Naruto's affairs in the future.
No need for Kakashi to say anything, Hagoromo also understood this matter very well. This "understanding" made him have no intention of completely keeping Naruto by his side from the beginning.
Naruto's attitude has been the same since Naruto became a Jinchuriki. It's not that he is worried about Hagoromo, but it's just that it is more in line with his wishes to place Naruto next to Kakashi, Minato's disciple, compared to Kushina's disciple.
...Well, he just doesn't trust Yuyi. After all, this person is too troublesome and is a completely unstable person.
How could the Hokage know that Hagoromo's real torment had not yet begun.
The team configuration prepared by Hagoromo was not at the same level as ordinary fresh graduates. Regardless of himself, even if she did not fight in the future, her detection ability would be an excellent assistant, and older graduates like Kimimaro and Shiro , or maybe they were just waiting to graduate with Mirai. In fact, a year ago, under the arrangement of Hagoromo, the two of them had already begun to participate in certain tasks with actual combat.
Therefore, a more accurate statement should be... Hagoromo's torment is about to begin.
But before Hagoromo's activities could begin, his victim had already appeared.
On Akatsuki's side, Nagato has made final adjustments to himself at this time, and Akatsuki as a whole has entered the final preparation stage before the start of the plan.
The members of Akatsuki began to disperse their activities, mainly for the purpose of collecting accurate information about the jinchūriki and the tailed beasts. They required that they must act resolutely when taking action.
And determining the jinchuriki's identity is the first step.
Every once in a while, they would conduct routine long-distance communications.
"The three-tailed beast has been fully resurrected, but according to the information I have, Kirigakure has strengthened its monitoring of the three-tailed beast after it died once. Now, overall, the defense is very tight. Once the tailed beast is attacked, it will be difficult not to alarm the village. . And... the Mizukage is looking for suitable candidates to become Jinchuuriki in the village, and the three tails are facing the situation of being sealed again." The voice of Mikigaki Kisame came intermittently.
This special method of communication actually gave his voice a playful feel.
Kirigakure's reaction was expected, but what happened next made everyone feel that there was great trouble.
In other words, the original predicament has not improved in any way.
"Nanabi has not been resurrected yet..."
"There's not even the slightest sign of wanting to be resurrected..."
Black Zetsu's explanation and White Zetsu's addition made the scene completely cool. Obviously, this was not the first time that Nanao's situation was reported, but Zetsu's statement was the same every time.
Nanao has not been resurrected, and there is no sign of resurrection. Is there any worse news than this for Nagato?
This kind of psychological gap makes people unable to adapt, and they still do big things. To do trivial big things, the prerequisites seem to be gone.
"Is it possible that Nanao has been resurrected and has been secretly sealed?" Nagato's indifferent question came through the three-dimensional image.
"If it is one of the five great ninja villages, it is possible, but Takigakure does not have the strength to do this." Black Zetsu responded.
"..."
Still no one said anything, but at this time, more than one person must be doubting whether the original plan was reliable.
At this time, even if someone jumps out and suggests that it is impossible for everyone to go back to their respective homes to find their respective mothers, for example, Jiaodu, now feels that he particularly wants to return to Gao Laozhuang.
"No matter what Shiroyasha did to Nanao, we can't give up our plan." At the critical moment, it was Nagato who had to firm his faith.
"Zetsu, continue to monitor Nanao's situation, and at the same time... our plan needs to be advanced."
Will Hagoromo continue to attack other tailed beasts? Nagato had such a premonition.
His hunch was also right, the answer was inevitable.
"Next, let's..." The adjustment of the plan was definitely not made in a hurry. Nagato had made this preparation method long ago, after realizing that Nanao could not be resurrected.
…………
After hearing the new plan and the end of the communication, Zetsu, who was hiding somewhere in the country of Taki, reopened his eyes, but he did not act immediately, but stretched the aloe leaves on his upper body.
Then, the leaves formed a ring and surrounded him... Black Zetsu and White Zetsu sealed themselves.
Only this closed space can make them feel temporary peace of mind and escape the pain of loneliness. Only mutual comfort can help them regain hope and leave the quagmire of despair.
If Nanao is not resurrected, Zetsu will not be alive either.
In the blinding darkness, Hei Jue bit his handkerchief, tears streaming down his face.
"Shiro Yaksha, the damn ghost who can kill a thousand swords!" It seemed like a hysterical scream could be heard.
"I will never let you go!" Bai Jue bit Hei Jue's handkerchief and echoed in a sharp voice.
At this moment, Jue, Jue was crying
The reality is very helpless. Really, they will also be desperate, and he is also very tired.
So, just let him rest for a while, just a little while.
