Chapter 25 The Lost Third Generation
On the day of the funeral of the third generation of Naruto, the sky has been gloomy since dawn. Hua Chu hesitated for a long time, but decided not to attend the funeral.
He had no intersection with the third generation. Generally speaking, he had only seen the third generation once, which was not very deep. Moreover, when he came back that day, he saw the smiling face of the third generation, which made him feel guilty for the first time in history and did not dare to see the portrait of the third generation.
"This is their doomed fate." In the past, when Hua Chu stood by and watched, Hua Chu always convinced herself with this sentence, but this time, Hua Chu found that in the face of the smile of three generations, this sentence was so pale and weak.
What made Hua Chu more guilty was that he was just worried that his intervention would lead to the crisis of Shuju and others. Under his own fabricated words, he was actually recognized by the senior management of Muye, including a group of ninja. If he hadn't seen the appearance of the third generation, Hua Chu would probably be complacent, but now, every praise is like sarcasm to him.
So, Hua Chu didn't go because she didn't dare to go.
But it's not a matter to stay in the house for such a day, so Hua Chu went out and walked away. He went to the memorial tower of Muye to mourn the third generation of Naruto. In the distance, Hua Chu saw two people, one was Kakashi, standing motionless at the memorial tower, and the other was Jiraiya, looking at Kakashi on the stake behind the bushes.
"Oh, you're here, kid." Jiraiya didn't look back and said, "I guess you will come here!" Hua Chu was a little absent-minded and said, "Ah. Aren't you also there? Uncle Zilaiye. Aren't you going to attend the funeral of the third generation?"
Jiraiya said, "That's not necessary. The third generation died with a smile. I don't want his death to make people sad. He lived to the age of 70, which was also a rare longevity. Finally, he died in the battle to protect the village, which was really in line with his wishes. Zilai also said, looking back and said, "If your master is also here, I guess he won't go either." Hua Chu thought for a moment and nodded.
"I have also heard about you letting go of the ninja in Shayin Village. In addition, the information sent back said that it was because of your judgment that the Kingdom of Sand was willing to sit down and negotiate with us. However, I don't think your purpose of letting them go is not as complete as you said, right? Zilai also looked at Hua Chu with sharp eyes. Hua Chu sighed in his heart, "It's worthy of Zilai, which actually made him see a little sign."
"Well. I'm not that noble. Even if I don't find the hiding inside, I will let them go. The female ninja in it has something to do with me. I can't let her die in Muye. Hua Chu said that he was a bachelor. Zilai also stared at it for a while, and then smiled and said, "Oh, so that's it. But I'm not interested, not to mention that your judgment does work.
Hua Chu also smiled and said, "It's just a fluke. Fortunately, my judgment is not wrong, otherwise I can only leave the village to find the master.
"Kid, I can see that you are very optimistic about Naruto. I also heard about your background. In your eyes, it is impossible not to know that the nine tails are sealed in Naruto's body, but I haven't seen you hate Naruto. Why?" Jirai also asked. I don't understand this point either. It is common for the tail orc column to be discriminated against and hated in various villages. It is even abnormal not to be afraid and not to hate.
Hua Chu said, "Don't ask me why. Yes, my parents did die when Jiuwei attacked the village, but so what? I remember that Naruto was just born at that time, and it was not his fault. Not only that, but even Naruto is the victim. Si Daimu and his wife also died, didn't they? And not only that, it is a great injustice for people who don't know the truth to transfer Jiuwei's hatred to Naruto. In contrast, Naruto is more pitiful than me. How can I blame him?
"That's right. It seems that you have understood the truth about that matter. No wonder." Zilai also looked relieved.
Hua Chu smiled and said, "These words are a lie to you. However, I have to say that although these words are not the truth, they are more acceptable than the truth. What do you think, Uncle Jiraiya?" Zilai also glanced at him and said, "What about the truth?"
"The truth. It may be unpleasant. Since I came to this world with memory, I have been a person without parents and the concept of family. To be honest, I don't have any feelings for your parents. They are like strangers on the roadside to me. But Naruto is different. He was my first friend in Muye. During that time, we comforted each other. He was my family, just like my brother. Will I hate Naruto like my relatives for the sake of parents like passers-by?
Zilai was also silent. After a long time, he said, "It's really bad enough, but I understand."
"Uncle Jiraiya, whether you understand it or not. In my eyes, blood is not the only standard for family. For me, anyone who is good to me, has paid for me, cares about me, and is willing to accept me is my relative. Just like Naruto, Shikamaru, Dingci and teeth. There are also the most important master and sister Jing, and Xiaohua. Hua Chu remembered her mother in her previous life, the gentle woman who had joined her family after her mother left. She gradually opened her resistance with inclusion and love, and told him that even if there was no blood relationship, they were a family. The gentle mother even lost her life for it.
"Hmm. It's sunny, and it seems that the funeral is over. I'll go back first." Looking at the dark clouds above her head dispersing, Hua Chu thought that she had been out for a long time, so she said hello and turned away.
"Is this guy really just a 13-year-old kid? Why do you feel like an adult? Zilai also said to himself.
Passing by Yile Ramen, Hua Chu packed two servings of Ramen and took them away. Because of the riot, Uncle Yile's noodle restaurant was also damaged, and now there is no way to entertain guests, so Hua Chu did not make them busy, so he simply packed and took it away.
When she got home, Xiaohua ran out of the house. As a result, she smelled what was in Hua Chu's hand and said happily, "Great, Yile Ramen." Hua Chu touched Xiaohua's head and said, "Okay, don't stand here and wash your hands."
When Hua Chu put away the two pieces of ramen, Xiao Hua had washed her hands and ran out.
Eating ramen, Xiaohua suddenly said, "Brother, the third generation is the grandfather of Kiba Maru, isn't it?" Hua Chu nodded: "Hmm. Yes. Kiba Maru is the grandson of the third generation. What's the matter?" Xiaohua was a little sad and said, "Menghuang said that the third generation is dead, and Muyewan's parents are also dead. Isn't Kiba Maru the same as before me now?
"It's different, little flower." Hua Chu said. He also has an uncle, an aunt and a cousin in the future. And he has a great teacher to take care of him. To be honest, even if the third generation is gone, Kiba Maru is much happier than before, so you don't have to worry about Kiba Maru. Although Grandpa is no longer here, he still has many relationships with his loved ones. In addition, he is the grandson of the third generation. He is a strong child who will cheer up even if he is sad, just like Naruto's brother.
"Hmm." Xiaohua nodded and said, "Minoha Maru is very strong, just like Naruto's brother."
"Well. Muye Maru also inherited the will of fire. Hua Chu said to himself.
