Simultaneous travel: Not eating beef

As the sun rose, Bai Yu led the little devils to the Land of Thunder.

Yunyin is built on a high mountain, in a place where thunder rumbles all year round.

Countless hair-like rocks stand tall, surrounding the clouds in the center.

Above the clouds, Bai Yu looked back.

At the foot of the mountain, the Raikage and two Jinchūriki were rushing towards them.

Bai Yu didn't cripple them; he just wanted them to see.

He randomly selected a rock pillar made of hair, put the little devils down, and said, "Stay here and watch, don't move around."

After giving a word of advice, Bai Yu took off again and flew over Yunyin.

It just doesn't feel quite right.

So he descended some altitude and then slowly ascended again.

By this time, many people below had already seen him.

Bai Yu's voice echoed throughout the entire Hidden Cloud Village: "Everyone, this is the choice of your Raikage."

Since he craves war and disregards those others value, let's see how he can tolerate it when it's his turn.

Since we can't ignore the suffering of others, let's face our own suffering.

Bai Yu's body slowly rose.

He wouldn't be satisfied even if he died without going through the proper procedures.

"How many flights of stairs do I have to carry a bag of rice up? Two flights of stairs! There's so much rice in one bag, and I have to wash it. There's so much rice in one bag, and I have to wash it... Every single grain is covered in mud!!! Who gave you a bag of rice?!"

After completing the procedures, Bai Yu appeared in the sunlight.

Peace and tranquility prevailed, and the world became very quiet.

He raised both hands and said:

"So spicy, heavenly!"

Just then, Raikage had already climbed the steps like a gust of wind and arrived at the village entrance.

It's too late, everything is already too late.

The air distorted, and then a section of ground beneath Bai Yu's feet was instantly dented by the repulsive force.

"Boom~!"

The earthquake trembled violently, and everything around the dented area was rapidly collapsing.

In terms of scale, Kumogakure is in no way inferior to Konoha.

"Dong dong dong dong..."

The earth trembled incessantly, the shattered buildings were pushed outwards, and the central crater continued to expand.

Raikage tried to rush in, but when he reached the repulsive force, he was blown apart and sent flying back, bleeding profusely from his head.

It's useless; nothing matters anymore.

Whether you survive this rice-carrying promotion is entirely a matter of luck.

Only if the angle is good, and the house blocks the view without harming oneself, can one survive.

The world is like a toy at Bai Yu's feet.

The scene, like a god descending to earth, left the little devils dumbfounded.

Kimimaro's gaze was somewhat unfocused. Suddenly, he knelt down before Shiraha, murmuring, "Kami (God), Kami~".

This scene taught the young boy the most important lesson of his life.

When everything returned to calm, the village of Kumogakure looked just like Konoha after it was destroyed by Pain more than a decade later.

At the edge of a ruin, several octopus legs are about to pry open a section of the rubble.

Raikage, Yugito, Killer Bee.

Once their vision returned, they were finally able to see their own village clearly.

Covered in blood, the Raikage knelt on the ground, his eyes vacant, repeating, "How could this happen... how could this happen..."

"Clap!"

Yugito and Killer Bee also knelt down, their expressions mirroring those of the Raikage.

The rap genius has stopped rapping, and the hot-tempered person has stopped getting angry.

world……

So beautiful.

Bai Yu didn't leave, but instead slowly flew towards them.

Leaving now is not his style.

It's like a shrimp, but not quite a pig's heart.

Bathed in sunlight, Bai Yu appeared as if a god had descended. The three tried to see his face clearly, but the blinding sunlight prevented them from making out his features.

It hovered in front of them, only a few meters high.

Bai Yu looked down at him and said slowly, "Ai, are you feeling pain?"

This is the consequence you wanted, right? Are you happy?

"Painfully happy?"

The three knelt on the ground to receive the judgment of the gods, their mouths agape, unable to utter a single word.

The inner world of the two Jinchūriki is filled with warnings from the Tailed Beasts, urging them not to provoke this man.

What they can't sense, the tailed beasts can.

It's a pity they didn't believe in superstitions at first.

Now they've realized it themselves.

However, from the moment the Konoha delegation appeared in the Hyuga territory, everything was already destined.

Bai Yu continued, "They do not understand the suffering of others, but only make demands and take. When they cannot get what they want, they start wars and ignore the suffering of others."

It's okay if you don't empathize. How are you feeling now? Have you realized it yourself?

In these ruins, all the people you cherish are buried.

Some died, some were still alive, but those who were still alive were also wailing in pain.

Listen, these are sounds you could never have heard before.

"What will you do next? Rebuild your home from the ruins?"

Can things get better than before? Do your decisions make them happy?

Will you repeat the same mistake?

Everything in this world is just a cycle; this is neither the first nor the last time.

Sometimes I agree with Orochimaru; some of what he said is indeed correct.

Humanity, a species that doesn't know gratitude, doesn't learn from its mistakes, and doesn't know how to cherish...

Human nature, being so base, is destined for destruction; it's only a matter of time.

Bai Yu slowly rose into the air, and before leaving, he said:

"Since it's not easy to be a human, I'll try to become a god."

Everything you face is a gift from God.

Be grateful.

After saying that, Bai Yu flew away, leaving behind only ruins.

This world is distorted and needs to be purified. He now understands the significance of his presence here.

Back on the hair-shaped rock pillar, Kimimaro was still kneeling on the ground.

Bai Yu rubbed his head and said, "Why are you kneeling on the ground? You're so weak, aren't you afraid of catching a cold?"

Kimimaro was pulled up, staring blankly into Shiro's eyes, and said, "Kami."

From this moment on, this title will never be changed.

Bai Yu led the little devils back, but not directly back to the village.

After handing Neji and Hinata over to their father, Shiraha led the other three kids in another direction.

……

A few days later, in the Land of Grass.

A wooden hut, resembling the dwelling of a corporate slave, was emitting a foul stench.

Outside the wooden house, the ground was littered with ninjas who had died in bizarre ways.

Bai Yu and the three little devils slowly walked to the door of the wooden house.

Upon smelling that odor, Bai Yu frowned slightly.

"Creak!"

Pushing open the wooden cabin door, you can immediately see the scene inside.

A woman lay on the bed, her fate unknown.

In the corner, a helpless gaze met Bai Yu's.

Kimimaro tugged at Shiraha's sleeve and said, "God, she's so pitiful. She reminds me of when I was in prison. Should we help her?"

Bai Yu patted his head and smiled, "You're all good kids."

After saying that, Bai Yu walked into the wooden house and slowly squatted down in a corner.

The gentle light revealed that she, with her red hair, was trembling all over.

Bai Yu reached out and stroked her head, saying, "How pitiful, reduced to a tool, not understanding the meaning of life."

Ultimately, life is about living for yourself.

Bai Yu smiled kindly and said:

"Child, do you want to understand the meaning of life? Do you want to truly live?"

"If you want, then come with me..."
