On the third day,

The third day of victory on Konoha's eastern border.

The gloomy sky seemed to be covered with a dark curtain, and there was faint thunder in the sky.

Looking at the black clothes neatly folded beside the mattress, a trace of confusion and sadness flashed in Huang's eyes.

Two hundred and ninety-three,

This is the number of Konoha ninjas who died on the eastern border in this war.

Today is their consolation offering.

Moreover, during this battle, more than a hundred Konoha ninjas were unable to continue living as ninjas even after they recovered.

They are all elites above Chunin level.

Aramoto thought he could face this matter calmly and face this data head-on.

However, when the vivid names turned into darkness, and when the welcoming crowd on the day of return was filled with uncontrollable crying.

He knew that he couldn't completely ignore it.

After all, getting to the bottom of it,

The trigger of this incident lies in itself.

'call.'

The weighing breath extended in the dark space. After an unknown amount of time, he began to put on the neatly folded clothes on the side, and the black material gradually covered the white bandage covering his whole body.

If it weren't for the power of the fire grass that healed his broken body in the first place, and if he hadn't received the "gift" from the Kaguya clan, perhaps his ninja path would have taken a long, long time to cultivate before he could restart.

After fastening the forehead protector engraved with the shape of a leaf, Huang opened the door. At the door of the small courtyard stood a graceful girl, who seemed to have been waiting here for a long time.

"morning."

Staring at the young man who jumped into her sight, the girl opened her teeth slightly, her clean and beautiful eyes were filled with waves, and even her breathing seemed to be slightly quickened.

The black dress made the girl extremely slender and tall. Her long, smooth hair was lightly tied with a minimalist black headband, and the tear mole at the corner of her right eye added a different kind of softness.

"Morning, Quan."

Huang's expression was slightly stunned for a moment, but he quickly regained consciousness. While responding, he worked hard to clear away the clutter in his heart, for fear that the other party would see something.

Because the scene of the girl cleaning and bandaging the wound with silent tears in the past few days has long been deeply engraved in his soul and cannot be removed.

He didn't want Quan to worry anymore.

"Let's go."

After walking to the girl's side in twos and twos, Huang said, and took the lead in taking the step. The originally somewhat suppressed voice also changed to the same as before.

"Um."

Quan snorted lightly and followed.

"No matter what happens, I will be by your side."

"As long as you look back."

She added softly, her voice calm.

'despair.'

Hearing this, Huang Na's steps, which were half a body ahead, suddenly stopped, and the uneasy feeling in his heart that was still uneasy even though he tried his best to suppress it was inexplicably relieved at this moment.

"Thanks."

He didn't know what to say.

I don't know what to say either.

During this time, he felt that his entire senses were filled with the other person's aura.

"That's not right."

"It was you who chose me first."

.........

The streets of Konoha are very depressing, just like the gloomy sky.

There were no shops open along the way, and pedestrians rarely interacted with each other. They just walked in the same direction.

When Ara led the Uchiha clan appeared, the oppressive atmosphere around them suddenly became even weirder, with disgust, fear, rejection, and even fear of avoiding them.

At the beginning of the war, they shared the same hatred, and even if there were other voices, they were weakened in front of Kirigakure, the foreign enemy.

But after the war ended, some voices began to spring up like mushrooms after a rain.

Because of protecting Uchiha Araichi, hundreds of ninjas died and hundreds of families were broken. Is this price really worth it?

Even if the young man at the center of the incident also leads the crowd there, what can be done?

Isn't this how it should be?

Even if he captured and brought back the top leaders of Yunyin Village, what would that mean?

You must know that such trophies are based on the premise that dozens of Konoha ninjas are not harmed!

The most important thing is, what kind of methods will Yunyin use in the future?

Uchiha is Uchiha after all!

A selfish, evil family that only cares about itself!!

Too many accusations and slanders have been flying in the past three days, and even the mountain clan has been implicated, because the leader of this clan once criticized certain commentators in public with full anger.

After all, that guy didn't listen to Huang's warning.

Of course, in fact, not only Yamanaka Kaiichi, but also Hinata, Sarutobi Asuma, and Yuhi Kurenai have resisted such remarks.

But these voices were ultimately buried in the general trend.

Especially the subsequent attitude of Kumogakure Village was like a sharp sword hanging over the hearts of Konoha residents, making them breathless.

No one wants to start another war.

No one wants his or her surviving family members to go through the bloody "meat grinding ground" again for that evil family.

In these few days, the Sandaime Hokage naturally said nothing and explained nothing.

Just like the Nine-Tails Rebellion in the past,

His thoughts were focused on the subsequent memorial service.

The memorial place is on the platform of the Hokage Building.

Naturally, not everyone who came to pay homage was able to go up, and most of them stopped on the street outside the Hokage Building to pray silently and say goodbye.

"Oh, the Uchiha clan also has the nerve to come here."

When more people gathered, some voices moved from their hearts to the stage and began to become unscrupulous.

"Not coming? Oh, how could you not come? How dare you not come!"

"Those are hundreds of dead souls, hundreds of Konoha elites."

"If I don't come, will my heart be at peace?"

"This evil clan!"

The accusations and accusations began to take shape, and they began to become more and more unpleasant.

No one stopped or scolded, even the Konoha ninjas responsible for maintaining the scene had complicated eyes, and even looked at the group of young faces in their field of vision with hostility.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It’s as if the ‘nine-tailed demon fox’ is in front of you.

In this regard, although Huang's face was expressionless, his black pupils were trembling slightly, and his stretched fingers were trying hard not to clench.

It's okay to insult him,

But insulting Uchiha and his tribe is too much!

Just today,

Just here,

He had no reason to vent his anger.

Because it is a memorial service.

However, there were also crazy calls in his heart, and at this moment he was shouting crazily:

【leave.】

【leave!】

【leave here!!】

When this crazy obsession reached its peak accompanied by the abuse around him, when there was already a hint of scarlet in his vision, a slightly cold palm gently held his trembling fingers.

The sudden arrival of a different kind of temperature, as well as the delicate and rough resonance of the touch, made Aang calm down a little.

He knew it was Quan.

The rough feeling is the mark left by the girl's training with ninja tools.

And the negative emotions such as anger, irritability, etc. in his heart were also suppressed at this moment because of this 'temperature'.

"I'm all right."

Huang said softly.
