Naruto: If I ask you to kill Sasuke, you will become a succubus?

On the day we officially left, Mr. Dazna and Ms. Tsunami came to see us off.

Haku and Zabuza didn't show up, or maybe I didn't notice them.

I turned around and looked at the bridge behind me. There was no name carved on the bridgehead at this moment, but it was almost the same as the one I had seen in my memory.

In Sakura's memory, Sasuke was standing on the bridge, and Kakashi was standing under the bridge. Sakura asked Sasuke crying if he had forgotten everything about the bridge, and Kakashi said to Sakura, "Go!".

That was his last battle. He died at the hands of his former students before I was born and before I knew him.

Out of an uneasy feeling of "since I have changed so much, I might as well change to the end", after saying goodbye to Bai the day before, I took a shower, changed my clothes, and went to find Mr. Dazna before going to bed, wanting to ask him if he had any ideas about the name of the bridge.

"Are there any ideas, Chaolu?"

"I just want to know...are you going to call him 'Naruto Ohashi'?"

"Is this the name Chaolu wants to be called? If that's what Chaolu wants, then it's fine to call her this."

"Eh? Why?"

"Because we don't have anything else to thank you for." Mr. Dazna smiled bitterly, "When the commission fee was not enough at the beginning, it was Chaolu who said he would help us. Later, every time we encountered danger, you rushed to the front and almost lost your life... The naming rights of this bridge may not be worth that much money, and probably cannot make up the difference in the fee, but as long as Chaolu wants it, you can ask for anything!"

I was stunned for a moment, then said happily, "Really? Can you do what I want?"

"So what does Chaolu want to be called?"

I can come up with a name!

Just like Orochimaru gave me the name "Morning Dew", I can also give a name to a bridge!

Although I was not its builder, because of this connection, I inexplicably feel that I have a different relationship with this bridge.

It is special to me and it is special to me.

In this world, there is a bridge named after me!

...Did Orochimaru feel this way towards me at that time?

Sure enough, my feeling was right - Mr. Dazna is Lord Shikamaru and Orochimaru from the Land of Waves, and this bridge is like me.

"I……"

So, what should I call it?

This is the first name I came up with, I must think about it carefully...

Calling my own name? Morning Dew?

No... Chaolu Bridge doesn't sound very solid...

So, Kakashi Bridge?

Sasuke Bridge?

The seventh bridge?

Konoha Bridge?

Shikamaru Bridge?

Anyway, never call Orochimaru Ohashi.

Or should we just continue to call it Naruto Bridge?

Seeing that I was very conflicted, Mr. Dazna was understanding and told me not to worry, and that I could just tell him before leaving.

Finally, it occurred to me.

Before leaving, I told Mr. Dazna the name. He was a little surprised: "Are you sure you want to call it this?"

"Yes! Please!"

The reason why I was able to win so many times is because of the power of the Sharingan. Logically, I should thank the genes of my father Uchiha Obito.

However, I'm afraid that if I call Obito Ohashi, Rin will be lonely if she is left alone.

But calling them Obito and Rin Ohashi is a bit too long.

I finally asked Mr. Dazna, "Please call it Uchiha Bridge."

This is not only to honor my father, Obito, and the power he passed on to me through my genes, but also for Sasuke.

There is a place related to Uchiha outside of Konoha. Will this place become special to him because of this?

If he returns to this place and sees the Uchiha Bridge...will he feel more closely connected to this world?

Everything about the Uchiha clan in Konoha are mostly traces left by the dead, which only make him feel hurt and panic and unable to look directly at them. However, this Uchiha Bridge is something new related to the Uchiha that we created together. It is pure and flawless. It is not a scar left by the dead, but a new hope created by the remaining people.

I thought so.

"Sasuke——"

I excitedly caught up with Sasuke and wanted to tell him about this, but he had been angry since he met Hakuho last night. When he heard me calling him, he turned around and walked to the other side.

...I always feel like the quarrel with Shikamaru at that time...the nightmare is repeating itself.

I chased after him and continued to try to start a conversation: "Sasuke, um, let me tell you..."

"You don't have to tell me anything." Sasuke said stiffly, "Save it for next time to talk to that Bai."

"No, it has nothing to do with Bai... And why are you so angry? Is it because I went into the water during my period? But I don't feel uncomfortable at all."

"Ah."

I felt that I was much more mature and experienced than Shikamaru was at that time, so I held his arm to prevent him from avoiding me again: "Don't sneer first, tell me, do you think I did something wrong? What do you think? If you don't tell me, I will never know."

Sasuke's attitude seemed to soften, but when he was about to speak, he saw Sensei Kakashi and Naruto beside him, so he closed his mouth tightly again.

It was indeed not convenient for Kakashi-sensei and Naruto to avoid each other while on the road, and they couldn't spare the time to talk alone.

"Then...let's talk about it on the boat, okay?"

Sasuke pursed his lips and said nothing, but since he didn't refuse, I'll just go find him when the time comes.

After we got on the boat, when heading back to the Land of Fire, Sasuke and I tacitly walked to the side of the boat where few people were.

I asked, “What are you angry about?”

Sasuke had clearly followed me here, but he remained silent and was unable to break through his last psychological defense.

Seeing that he always frowned and turned away from looking at me, I felt that I must have eye contact, so I reached out and held his face, forcing him to look at me.

"Come on, talk about it." I didn't allow him to avoid my gaze. I would follow his eyes wherever they turned. "We will be together for a long time in the future. This is our chance to understand each other better."

Sasuke finally said, "...You abandoned me."

I was slightly startled.

"You jumped into the water and left without saying a word. It was so dark outside, and you swam very far away. I couldn't see where you were, and I didn't know if you would come back... What if you just left and never came back? Then I would be alone again..."

"Of course I'll be back!"

"But you came back with Bai!" He glared at me: "Did you agree to meet at that time? Did you leave me behind just to meet him?"

"No, I didn't know Bai would show up at that time."

"So what does he mean to you?"

"What does it mean?" I was stunned. "The first friend I made after leaving the village?"

"Why are you making friends with a rebel ninja from the Hidden Mist Village?!" Sasuke said angrily, "Why did you allow him to kiss you!?"

"Because, because, he showed me his Adam's apple...?"

"What about me? What kind of relationship do we have to you?"

I answered very carefully and cautiously, "If Sasuke thinks we are friends, then we are friends."

"So... Is Shiro a better friend than me?"

"Why do you think so?"

Sasuke pursed his lips, broke away from my hands and turned his face away, but he no longer refused to communicate with me, so I didn't force it.

He whispered, "He brought you fireworks, but I only have a few sparklers."

"I haven't thought about it that way."

"But, watching the fireworks together at the beach, that was what we agreed to do!" Sasuke looked at me sharply: "But from now on, every time you think of the beach, will you think of me or Bai?"
