Naruto, the strongest Uchiha from signing in.

The Land of Fire, Konoha Village, in front of the memorial tablet.

The sky is dark, dark clouds are rolling in, and God's sad tears are about to fall from the sky.

All the Konoha ninjas and many important clan leaders bowed their heads in silence, with sad faces.

"Mr. Fugaku, do you want to retrieve Kakashi Hatake's Sharingan?"

"The war has just ended, so everyone should calm down. Since this is Uchiha Obito's last wish, we should respect the will of the deceased. It is just a Sharingan, and it cannot exert the true power of the Sharingan."

Uchiha Fugaku lamented in his heart that although his clansmen were united, they seemed unable to see the situation clearly.

"I heard that the Third Hokage is about to resign, and I don't know who will be the next Hokage. Some of the clan's jonin are also preparing to nominate you, the clan leader..."

"Shut up, let's stop here..."

Uchiha Inahimi kept silent, following Fugaku's gaze, which fell on the flaming fan with white flowers placed in front of the memorial.

Uchiha Itachi, who was following his father, looked forward, as if thinking about something. After the memorial service was over, the young figure looked around and finally walked to the remote corner, where there was a person sneering in a low voice.

“What is the meaning of life?”

"Life has no meaning unless it can be eternal. Human beings are such fragile and powerless creatures..."

"Meaning itself represents nothingness, and is just a product of human creation. But as long as you survive, you will eventually find your goal, just like this troublesome snake."

Uchiha Itachi turned around, and the look under the demon fox mask seemed to exude kindness.

Orochimaru sneered in a low voice as his words and memories were interrupted, and then spoke softly.

"I am really interested in the sample you provided. It seems to be a product related to Yin-Yang escape technique. Did you find a relic from thousands of years ago? My lovely disciple."

"That was obtained from a close friend of mine. Judging from your appearance, you have gained a lot."

Orochimaru sneered repeatedly, Uchiha Kagetsu would have friends outside the village? As soon as he heard it, he knew it was a clumsy lie.

Seeing that he didn't believe her, Hua Yue emphasized her tone and introduced it loudly.

"He is really my best friend. We have a very close relationship..."

Black Zetsu dug out Huayue's heart, and Huayue dug out Black Zetsu's lungs. The location of the flesh and blood specimen was indeed that of a human lung, but Black Zetsu had no lungs.

"Haha, do you think I'm a child? If you don't want to answer, don't use such a perfunctory tone. Someone is here to see you."

Orochimaru smiled without saying anything, turned and left. Huayue gently patted Itachi's shoulder and nodded slightly to Fugaku in the distance.

Without waiting for the solemn and pretty figures to surround her, Huayue flashed away, leaving Itachi alone in a daze, lost in thought.

“Life has no meaning, but as long as you live, will you find your purpose?”

From far away to near, Hongdou stamped her feet in anger.

"That guy, how long is he going to hide? Don't you even have time to go to the dumpling shop with me?"

"Even you don't know where Huayue is? Alas, I wanted to ask him to practice Konoha-style swordsmanship with me, but he's been elusive these days."

Xiyan held her cheeks with her hands and sighed softly. Xirihong hurried over, looking even more nervous, and couldn't help complaining.

"It's all because of dad. He said he would protect me and brought me to the border of the Sand Country. That's why I just came back now. Where's Huayue?"

Hongdou's eyes rolled around and she said proudly.

"You two should just give up. I and that guy were kissing and hugging each other. The only thing missing was a lift up high. I'm ahead. Wahahahaha!"

The two beautiful faces turned pale, Xi Ri Hong gritted her teeth, snorted coldly, and looked at Hong Dou, who was the first to get the moon because of the proximity, with even more indignation.

"Don't be so proud. Just because you're one step ahead doesn't mean you can be ahead every step of the way. The person who can become Huayue's wife must be me."

"Hey, Anko, what exactly is that feeling like? Can you tell me?"

Mao Yue Xi Yan leaned close to Hong Dou's ear and asked softly, with a mischievous look between her brows, as if she was full of expectations for this unknown field.

Her little face turned red as she remembered how she lost her feeling after eating the chocolate with liquor filling. She became even more angry. She glared at Hong fiercely, turned around and ran away, looking very embarrassed.

"I hate chocolate with liqueur, asshole!"

"Wait, why are you running, Anko! Anko!"

Hong and Xiyan looked at each other, puzzled. She was clearly ahead, so why did she look so aggrieved?

"Hong, do you like chocolate with liquor filling?"

"Not bad. I prefer the wine in the chocolate. It's a very wonderful feeling. What does Xiyan like?"

"Well, in my free time, I prefer to appreciate flowers and practice. Each flower has its own unique charm. Do you like flowers..."

The two of them left together, laughing and talking. The smiles did not disappear, but just shifted to other people's faces.

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

The intensity of the war was gradually restrained by the five major countries. The unbearable losses of each major country and the legacy issues of the last Ninja World War were also gradually eliminated.

Similarly, new problems and hidden dangers are also buried bit by bit. No one knows what consequences this explosion will lead to, except for a young man who is temporarily hiding in the laboratory.

Although the war is not over yet, Konoha Village has already secured a complete victory, even though this war has brought Konoha's manpower to the brink of destruction.

The negotiations between Konoha and the Sand Shinobi are in full swing. At this sensitive time, a task that unexpectedly came due to compensation fell on Huayue's head.

Hokage office building, mission release hall.

"This is what happened. Among the tasks that were assigned as compensation, there is an extremely important task that will be assigned to you in a small country near the Wind Country."

"About six or seven years ago, Loulan began to develop rapidly. Some people suspect that Loulan is now using the power dormant in that land..."

In an instant, Huayue's pupils shrank, and she immediately looked at her partner beside her.

"Namikaze Minato, Aburame Shiwei, Akimichi Choza... Loulan Country, there is no doubt about it. The chakra flowing naturally and on the surface, the crystallization of the dragon veins, could it be that the mission this time is..."

While he was in a daze, Sarutobi Hiruzen finished introducing the task, his eyes were full of solemnity and his expression was serious.

"In order to ensure the mission is completed, one more person will be added to the original three-person Anbu team. At this time of establishing an alliance with the Sand Ninja, no accidents will be allowed to happen. Do you understand?"

"Minato..."

"I see."

After Sarutobi Hiruzen left, the four looked at each other and Minato spoke first.

"This is the first time Huayue has been involved in an Anbu mission. The three of us will be in charge this time, and you will be responsible for coordinating in secret."

"With your Flying Thunder God Technique, there will definitely be no problem."
