Knock, knock, knock...a series of knocks on the door sounded.

Xingye Feng yawned and said, "Who is it? Disturbing my lunch break."

Click, Xingye Feng rubbed his eyes and opened the door.

"Brother Feng." Tsunade greeted happily.

The sleepiness of Xingye Feng disappeared without a trace: "Little Tsunade, you've grown so big."

Tsunade said unhappily, "Humph, I'm not little anymore."

"Yes, yes, Tsunade." Hoshino Kaede found it a little funny and still a little childish.

"Jiraiya, your face..." Hoshino Feng turned his eyes and looked at Jiraiya in surprise.

"Wow, Lord Hoshino, you have to control Tsunade. She's too violent!" Jiraiya cried, his tone aggrieved.

Orochimaru moved aside calmly, his eyes looking at his nose and his nose looking at his heart, as if he didn't know him.

Tsunade clenched her fists and threatened with force: "Jiraiya! It seems that I was too lenient. Who told you to talk nonsense?"

"Why did I talk nonsense? Did I say something wrong?" Perhaps because of the presence of Kaede Hoshino, Jiraiya became bolder and bolder. Usually, he would take the beatings in silence.

Upon hearing this, Tsunade was furious. She rolled up her sleeves and was ready to beat him up, determined to give him a lesson that would hurt him to the bone.

Hoshino Kaede shook his head, rolled his eyes, and said teasingly: "Hitting is love, scolding is love, Tsunade, you are not in love with Jiraiya, are you?"

Shocking words! The three of them stood there in astonishment.

Jiraiya reacted the fastest, and immediately jumped up and said, "How is it possible? How could I like this violent girl! Unless the Sage of Six Paths is alive, I will never like her even if I die!"

Tsunade's eyes were blazing with fire, and she immediately started to discuss physics: "What? You dare to say that again?"

Jiraiya stiffened his neck and ran out stubbornly, then turned back to continue provoking Tsunade, looking like he was enjoying it.

"Say it a hundred times!"

Hoshino Kaede looked at the two people going away and was immediately amused: "These two people... are quite interesting, right, Orochimaru."

"Hehe." Orochimaru forced a smile on his cold face, which was uglier than crying.

Hoshino Feng looked at him. Uncle Snake was more normal at this time than he was in his later years.

"You three came here just to say hello, right?" asked Xingye Feng.

Orochimaru said, "It's me who has something I want to ask Master Hoshino."

"Hmm?" Xingye Feng raised an eyebrow. "Tell me about it."

After a pause, Orochimaru said seriously: "Life in this world is so fragile, why do we still try so hard to live."

Xingye Feng narrowed his eyes: "Why do you think so?"

Orochimaru's expression darkened, as if he was recalling something bad.

"When I was a child, I witnessed the death of my parents. I felt like the sky had fallen and I was in a daze all day long."

"After that, I kept trying to find the meaning of life, but I found that there was death all around me. I was... very confused..."

Hoshino Kaede looked at Orochimaru, who had a confused look in his eyes, and was silent for a long while before answering him.

"You asked a question that confused me."

A gleam appeared in Orochimaru's eyes and he looked at him expectantly.

"This question is so broad that it is hard to explain it in one sentence, but I can tell you that life goes hand in hand with death, and neither can exist without the other."

As he spoke, Xingye Feng lightly tapped his forehead with his finger, and a ray of faint light suddenly poured into his brain.

Orochimaru's thoughts drifted far away, and he followed the faint light back to the past.

He saw himself as a newborn and the baby crying, heralding the beginning of life.

The mother had a loving look on her face as she looked at the little one and whispered softly.

"Mother...Mother..." Orochimaru's vague childhood memories emerged, tears uncontrollably welled up in his eyes, and he muttered to himself.

The scenes of his childhood played out before his eyes, until his parents passed away...

Everyone has seven emotions and six desires, even Orochimaru. His heart is aching and his emotions can't help but flow out.

Reason told him that these were all in the past and not worth remembering.

But his instinctive emotions made him cry.

Orochimaru reached out his trembling hand, wanting to touch the mother in his memory.

But memories are just memories. As my trembling fingers passed through my mother's chest, everything seemed so unreal.

Boom—just as he was stunned, a loud explosion pulled him back to reality.

Outside, Orochimaru cried silently, bean-sized tears slid down his cheeks, and his dull eyes came back to his senses.

"What you desire in your heart should be love, the love of your parents." Xingye Feng's voice suddenly sounded.

Orochimaru remained silent and touched his heart. The warm heart was beating strongly. It was given by his mother.

"You asked about the meaning of life, but I think it should be this."

"There's nothing wrong with immortality. If you want to pursue it, it has nothing to do with me. It's all about time and fate!"

Those plain words went deep into Orochimaru's heart, and a seed was planted in his heart.

Orochimaru wiped the tear marks on his face and smiled with relief.

"Thank you." This thank you was filled with his greatest respect.

"It's okay, they are all children of Konoha, and it's what I should do." Hoshino Kaede waved his hand and looked at him gently.

This is a talent among talents. It takes many years for a technological genius to appear in the ninja world.

It is very important for the future development of Konoha, so of course we must take good care of it.

Technology changes life, but first of all, we need to change the people who influence technology.

.......

In the twenty-seventh year of Konoha, the weather was sunny and the temperature was moderate.

A joyous atmosphere filled the entire Konoha Village, and every household had a happy look on their faces.

Because today is the inauguration ceremony of the Third Hokage.

The villagers gathered in the Hokage Building, and the place was filled with people, a huge crowd.

A moment later, Xingye Feng's figure slowly walked out, instantly causing a scream.

"Hoshino-sama! Hoshino-sama!"

"Wow wow wow!! Look here! Here!!"

Kaede Hoshino, wearing the Hokage robe, looked at the enthusiastic villagers and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Standing in the Hokage Building and looking down at everyone, a feeling of pride and ambition arose spontaneously.

"Everyone!" Xingye Feng raised his hand and suppressed it. There was silence in an instant, but the soft words rang in everyone's ears.

The warm and gentle face is like a breeze, giving people hope.

Everyone looked up at him with admiration in their eyes.

Behind Xingye Feng, the clan leaders all had solemn expressions.

Even Jiraiya, who was usually jumpy, became quiet.

All of Konoha's high-ranking officials gathered together and were present.

Looking at Kaede Hoshino in front of them, Hoshino Yota and Sakura Kinomoto were all filled with emotion.

The little kid who used to act like a spoiled brat with them is now able to shoulder the responsibility of Konoha.

Uzumaki Mito looked at the high-spirited Hoshino Kaede and couldn't help but recall the past.

It seems that Hashirama back then was the same as he is now, the center of everyone's attention.

"Wow... so awesome!" Hoshino Teru opened his mouth wide, looking surprised. "I want to be a Hokage in the future!"

The little guy swore secretly in his heart.
