Scourge of Naruto

This is a very mysterious feeling that cannot be explained accurately in words.

Ye Zi and Kushina stared at each other in silence, countless images entangled in their minds.

There was only silence, no conversation, no contact...but the memories of what they had experienced entered the other person's mind. Although not complete, they were very clear.

Ye Zi frowned slightly. It felt uncomfortable to share memories and thoughts with others. It was a frank confession, and it also revealed the secrets in his heart, including his deep thoughts.

He consciously tried to stop it, but to no avail.

Is this a necessary process, or is it a method used by the Six Paths Immortal?

Ye Zi didn't know that he was now forced to accept the memory pictures from Kushina, as well as the emotions and moods under each picture, all the way to the depths of his heart.

It was an era tormented by war. As night fell, the village was engulfed in flames. The fire illuminated the sky, and shurikens would fly from the darkness at any time.

The little red-haired girl with a bit of fire ash on her face looked confused, following the fleeing crowd into the distant night.

Ye Zi followed the little girl. The distance between him taking one step and the distance between the little girl and running was a few steps. Therefore, he walked in stride while the little girl trotted in panic.

Whether it's action or demeanor, there is a strong contrast between the two.

A stranger who passed by passed straight through Ye Zi's body. After seeing the little girl, he hesitated, gritted his teeth, picked up the little girl, and ran away from the village together.

Ye Zi became a complete bystander. He looked at the little girl being picked up by the villagers, his eyes dimmed slightly and his pace slowly slowed down.

It wasn't until the fleeing crowd disappeared into the night that he stopped completely. He looked up and glanced at the surrounding villages that were already engulfed in flames. One after another figures jumped up from the air, and under the light of the fire, they passed by and splashed with flames. A burst of sparks.

"Kushina..." The image of the little girl running away in panic just now appeared in Ye Zi's mind, with a confused and frightened look on her face. It lingered for a long time, as if it had touched the memory that had been sealed in her heart.

Suddenly, the surrounding scenes were twisted into darkness, and the screen switched from one scene to another in just a few seconds.

Three seconds ago, the harsh theme of war was still playing in my ears, and in front of me was a sea of ​​fire and corpses everywhere.

Three seconds later, the early spring sunshine warmed the body and mind, and delicate pink cherry blossoms fluttered in the wind. Young children ran in the rain of pink flowers, heading towards the ninja school that could determine their future path.

A red-haired little girl with a stiff face seemed a little nervous. She stood under a cherry blossom tree and silently watched her peers disappear before her eyes. Then she walked towards the school.

Ye Zi silently followed the little girl. He could only follow so that he could move to the next scene until this 'farce' was over.

He could clearly feel the fear and helplessness of the little girl in the sea of ​​fire. Now, he could still feel the nervousness of the little girl when she came into contact with new things.

Vaguely, he didn't know why he started to resist, but this didn't change anything, he could only passively accept it.

The little girl came to the classroom, and then she saw the black-haired boy leaning on his cheek and looking out the window.

Ye Zi followed the little girl's gaze and saw the black-haired boy, and fell silent.

After a moment, he glanced at the other children in the classroom who were laughing loudly at the little girl's speech. Most of these people graduated and became genin, and then one by one was eliminated by the turbulent current situation at that time. Among them, some Including North Star Night…

Standing in the past as someone who knows the future results well, and then looking at the people who behaved as before, I felt like I was back in the past, and I deeply felt that this scene of people smiling without any burden was really an extremely ironic scene.

"Your results are not good...do you know..."

Ye Zi walked down from the podium, past Sawama who was injured and retreated to teach behind the scenes, past Kushina who was blushing with shame, past Minato who had a gentle smile on his face, past Kushina who looked slightly shy Bei Xingye, past the little kids who were beaten to tears after bullying Kushina, past the laughing people, and then came to the black-haired boy.

Ye Zi slowly squatted down and looked at the side face of the little boy looking out the window.

"If you could never, you have a better choice, you know..."

Seeing the unresponsive little boy, Ye Zi stood up expressionlessly, looked back at Kushina, who was standing on the podium with a red face, and the scene changed again.

"Yeah, you don't know..."

In the deep night, the panic and helplessness when being kidnapped, the deep exhaustion of being tied up and walking a long distance all night, and then under the moonlight, when I saw the boy leaning on the tree trunk with blood all over his body and a faint breath. The resulting... grief and fear.

Ye Zi just stood beside him, looking at himself, Kushina, and Minato.

That feeling was something I had experienced before, and it was engraved deep in my memory, just like the feeling when I was afraid of losing someone important on a cold, long snowy night.

"Liudao, is this something you did deliberately?"

Ye Zi raised his head, looked through the branches and leaves, and looked at the night sky.

No one responded.

The scene changes again.

Bei Xingye's death.

In the night, I looked at the figure rushing forward, resisting all damage and fighting a bloody path.

In the war with the Iwa Ninja, he was like a demon, tearing off the enemy's flesh and killing the enemy's vitality. It was terrifying, but this was to protect them who were on the verge of despair.

In the heavy rain, he watched Ye Zi pass by him with an expressionless face, and then gradually moved away.

When the news of his death came, he was loudly scolded by the rumors until he burst into tears.

Although she was happy that Ye Zi was still alive, she fell into deep conflict and pain due to the change of identity.

Pictures and experiences flashed by quickly.

All the joys, sorrows and joys of Kushina were inside, like happy elves, stuffed into Ye Zi's head through the vivid and real memory scenes.

If these joys, sorrows and joys caused by him are all living elves, then they will live because of him and die because of him.

I have been confused and in pain.

I have hesitated and struggled.

When everything is in vain, there is no choice.

The heart is both alive and dead.

It is resting and jumping.

Ye Zi followed silently. Without realizing it, his every move hurt Kushina deeply.

Some people are injured for life, and some people can never look back once they miss something.

Even if these pictures can deeply touch Ye Zi's heart, they can't change what he wants to do next.

He wants to go back and resurrect Yan Ye and the others.
