Naruto: Konoha Glory

Chapter 29 Funeral



&ep;&ep;After the two Sand Ninjas fell to the ground one after another, Kyousuke came to Fugaku's side with a heavy heart.

&ep;&ep; He looked at Fugaku's expressionless face and opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.

&ep;&ep;Compared with others, if it were me...even if there was a way to resurrect him in the future, I'm afraid...

&ep;&ep;Huh? resurrection? !

&ep;&ep;Kyosuke's eyes suddenly lit up when he thought of this, and he was about to speak... but finally fell silent.

&ep;&ep; "It's better not to tell him yet, after all..." The images of the Sasuke brothers flashed through Kyousuke's mind, and then he was ready to put the matter down and talk about it later.

&ep;&ep;“Shua~”

&ep;&ep;“Shua~”

&ep;&ep;“Shua~”

&ep;&ep;Three sounds of breaking through the air suddenly came, and then Kyosuke and the two saw the arrival of several Anbu.

&ep;&ep; "Uchiha Kyosuke, we are ordered to bring you back to the village safely. Come with us." The leader of the ANBU said and couldn't help but look at the surrounding situation.

&ep;&ep;As a result, when he saw the death state of the two sand ninjas, the face hidden under the mask couldn't help but twitch in shock.

&ep;&ep;Then, he secretly looked at Fugaku, who had his back turned to him.

&ep;&ep; "It seems that the evaluation of his strength has to be upgraded to a higher level." Anbu thought secretly in his heart.

&ep;&ep;At this time, Fugaku finally turned around, ignoring the existence of ANBU, but turned to Kyousuke and asked in a hoarse voice: "Nagisa...are you okay?"

&ep;&ep;Kyosuke nodded silently, indicating that she was safe.

&ep;&ep;Because he secretly hid her in a coma before the battle began. As long as she is not picked up by a passing wild beast, there should be no problem with her safety...

&ep;&ep;Kyosuke thought of this, nodded to Fugaku, and then prepared to go and bring back the "pig" that had been sleeping.

&ep;&ep; Before leaving, Fugaku gave him a faint wink, and Kyousuke nodded clearly, indicating that he understood.

&ep;&ep;The meaning contained in this wink is very simple, that is, to conceal the existence of Kaleidoscope for him.

&ep;&ep;Of course, even if he didn't ask for it, Kyosuke wouldn't have revealed the news.

&ep;&ep;Now Uchiha is already so arrogant and arrogant. If they gain another pair of "Kaleidoscopes"...

&ep;&ep;The consequences would be disastrous.

&ep;&ep;......

&ep;&ep;The return trip will be many times slower than the trip here.

&ep;&ep;Because it is impossible for those Anbu to carry him on their backs like the tribesmen.

&ep;&ep;Not to mention, Kyousuke has to take care of Nagisa Uchiha, who is still in a coma.

&ep;&ep;As for Fugaku, after he went to destroy the "eyes" of the dead tribesmen, he always hugged Chizi's body and followed behind him without saying a word.

&ep;&ep;In this way, the group of people slowly returned to Konoha Village in this suffocating silence...

&ep;&ep;......

&ep;&ep;Soon, three days have passed since Kyousuke returned to the clan.

&ep;&ep;Although the rescue team suffered heavy casualties this time,... they still received a high reward for successfully completing the mission.

&ep;&ep;Especially Uchiha Fugaku, who has almost been designated as the next patriarch of Uchiha.

&ep;&ep;At the same time, Kyousuke also received some rewards, but they were basically money and other items.

&ep;&ep;As for those tribesmen who died in the war... they can only compensate their descendants or family members.

&ep;&ep;Shortly after returning, Konoha's top brass also sent people to offer "consolations," but their behavior made Kyosuke feel sick to his stomach.

&ep;&ep; "Hypocritical." Kyosuke thought this word was the most appropriate word to describe their performance.

&ep;&ep;I am afraid that in the hearts of those people, they wish that more people from the Uchiha clan would die.

&ep;&ep;......

&ep;&ep;“Wow~~~”

&ep;&ep;The majestic heavy rain slanted down from the thick dark clouds meters above the ground, adding a desolate atmosphere to the memorial monument.

&ep;&ep;Kyosuke and the others were currently wearing black clothes, looking solemnly at the funerals of the "heroes".

&ep;&ep;Standing at the front is Fugaku with infinite sadness in his eyes.

&ep;&ep;This funeral was organized by him.

&ep;&ep;As for those elders with high authority, they were not present for unknown reasons, even the second elder who should have been present was the same.

&ep;&ep; "Oh, isn't it because of your old age that you have rheumatism?" Kyousuke sneered in his heart.

&ep;&ep;Then he turned to look at Nagisa, who had already burst into tears.

&ep;&ep;"Uu~~~Sister Chizi, everyone, this is all my fault, wuwuwu..." Nagisa was also dressed in black, standing there with his head lowered, sobbing non-stop.

&ep;&ep;Originally, I heard that the second elder would not let her come here, but in the end, she was unable to defeat her stubborn granddaughter, so she finally let her go.

&ep;&ep;But before leaving, he gave many instructions, telling Kyosuke to take good care of his granddaughter.

&ep;&ep;Why can’t she catch a cold just after “recovering from an injury”? Don’t make her too sad, etc. etc.

&ep;&ep;As for the dead tribesmen, he didn’t even mention it.

&ep;&ep;Because in the eyes of these senior leaders, it is natural for these people to die fighting for them.

&ep;&ep;The emotion of guilt will not appear in their hearts.

&ep;&ep;To this, Kyosuke could only remain silent.

&ep;&ep;At the same time, the idea of ​​"seizing power" became more and more intense in his mind.

&ep;&ep;It’s just that he doesn’t need to worry about this matter yet.

&ep;&ep;Because, in the mind of Fugaku standing at the front, I am afraid that this idea is stronger than him.

&ep;&ep;......

&ep;&ep;“Human life is really a fragile thing, don’t you think so, Kyosuke-kun?”

&ep;&ep;A hoarse voice suddenly sounded in Kyousuke's ears.

&ep;&ep;He looked back and saw that it was Orochimaru dressed in black.

&ep;&ep; "You are right, life is really fragile." Kyosuke replied expressionlessly.

&ep;&ep;Hearing what he said, Orochimaru's eyes lit up slightly, but he did not continue to test him.

&ep;&ep;After a while, Orochimaru left.

&ep;&ep;Before leaving, he asked Kyosuke to go to his house to find him tomorrow.

&ep;&ep;Kyosuke's heart moved slightly, then nodded in agreement, and then continued to bow his head in mourning.

&ep;&ep;......

&ep;&ep; "Hey Kyosuke, where do you think people go after they die?" On the way home, Nagisa lay on his back with a sad face and asked murmuring to himself.

&ep;&ep; Seeing that her sadness had not subsided, Kyousuke was afraid that it would leave a shadow in Nagisa's heart, so he could only tell her some stories from his past life.

&ep;&ep;Just use stories to divert her attention.

&ep;&ep;“Legend has it that after death, a person’s soul will go to a place called ‘Underworld’.”

&ep;&ep;“There, the ground is full of red Hibiscus flowers.”

&ep;&ep;"Legend has it that it takes a thousand years to bloom and a thousand years to fall."

&ep;&ep;“But when the flowers bloom, there are no leaves, and when there are leaves, there are no flowers...the flowers and leaves will never see each other.”

&ep;&ep;“This means that once a person dies, he will never be seen again for eternity.”

&ep;&ep;"There is another bridge over there..."

&ep;&ep;The heavy rain dispersed, and the warm sunshine shone on the earth again, which gave this cold land a touch of warmth again.

&ep;&ep;At this time, two small figures were slowly walking forward on the streets of Konoha.

&ep;&ep;Although they are still very small and powerless.

&ep;&ep;But...they will eventually grow up.

&ep;&ep;......

&ep;&ep;The first volume, "First Arrival" is over.
