In the Rain Country.
The dark clouds that had been brewing for a long time finally started to rain.
"Hualala …."
The torrential rain fell on the ground, making a violent sound.
In the cave where Xiao Nan and the others were hiding.
Everyone stood at the entrance of the cave, expressionlessly looking at the scenery outside that was covered by the water vapor from the heavy rain, as if they were statues.
His young and tall figure gave people a sense of dignity.
Although the rain was pouring outside, the cave was still warm.
It was very warm inside the cave.
Next to the fire.
Xiao Nan and her grandmother were lying on a dry haystack, sleeping quietly.
On the other side of the haystack, Yahiko didn't fall asleep.
It had been a few days, but he still couldn't accept the news of his mother's death.
His big black eyes stared at the figure standing at the entrance of the cave, and his eyes flashed with a trace of firmness.
He quietly got up without disturbing Xiao Nan and the old lady who were sleeping soundly.
He quietly walked to the back of Jie Ren.
Hearing the sound behind him, Amato slowly turned his head, a pair of pale eyes coldly looked at Yahiko, and said calmly.
"What do you want to do?"
Looking at the expressionless face of Amato, Yahiko's young face flashed with a trace of fear, but he still firmly opened his mouth.
"Can … can … can you teach me Ninjutsu …?"
Amato didn't refuse the request of the boy who lost his mother, but he still calmly asked.
"What's the reason?"
"What reason do you want to use to convince me to teach you Ninjutsu?"
Hearing his words, Yahiko's young face flashed with a trace of confusion.
That's right … Why should I …
Amato's questioning made Yahiko hesitant, and he didn't know how to answer.
Seeing this scene.
Everyone was still expressionless as they spoke calmly.
"It seems that you haven't figured out why you want to learn Ninjutsu, go back."
After saying that, he slowly turned around and continued to look at the heavy rain outside the cave.
Hearing Amato's words, Yahiko's face flashed with a trace of paleness, and he panicked.
"I want to protect the people around me!!"
Yahiko's eyes slightly dimmed, and his voice was a little bit sobbing.
"It's because I don't have the power, I couldn't protect my mother …."
"I don't want to be like this anymore, I want to protect the people around me!!"
"Please, please teach me Ninjutsu!!"
He suddenly knelt behind Amato, and kowtowed.
Hearing his words, everyone's face finally showed a trace of emotion. A pair of pale eyes gently looked at Yahiko who was kneeling on the ground and said in a flat voice.
"Do you want to … protect …."
"I accept your request, but how much you can learn will depend on your talent."
Speaking of this, he looked at the torrential rain outside and muttered.
"I won't stay here for too long..........
"There are more important things that I need to do …"
Yahiko, who was behind him, was still too young to understand what Meiren meant.
But he knew that Amato had promised to teach him Ninjutsu, and a happy smile appeared on his face.
.....
In a desert filled with sand and wind.
Through the swirling sand and dust in the air, one could see scattered buildings standing tall on this piece of yellow sand.
Sanin.
People in the village walked on the street wearing a veil to avoid the sand and dust.
Three years ago, the Bijuu rampage incident ended with Sanin's participation in the war.
But the impact of the war still exists.
The villagers of Sanin were more anxious than ever.
After all, one side of the war is Konoha, the country of fire that made a name for itself in the Shinobi World War!
The villagers were generally not optimistic about the future of the war.
In one of the houses in Sanin.
A young child with fluffy red hair was staring at the various puppet parts hanging on the wall in the basement of the house with his big, adorable eyes.
"Wow!"
When he saw a weapon part shining with a sharp luster, he exclaimed.
His big eyes were full of excitement.
At this time!
"Creak!"
The sound of the door opening came from outside the basement.
Hearing this sound, the red-haired child's little face was startled, showing a panicked expression, and hurriedly wanted to leave the basement.
"Sasori, grandma is back, and I bought you your favorite sticky candy."
A kind and amiable voice slowly sounded.
Hearing this voice, the red-haired child named Sasori was even more panicked, and when he hurriedly walked down the stairs, he accidentally tripped.
"Ouch!"
Sasori who suddenly fell down couldn't help but panic.
Then there was a crash on the floor.
Hearing Sasori's scream, a middle-aged woman suddenly appeared in the basement with a vigilant expression.
When she saw Sasori slowly climb up from the ground, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Seeing the appearance of his grandmother, Sasori's little face couldn't help but show a trace of grievance, and a few big tears fell from his big eyes, and he sobbed.
"Grandma … Grandma … Boohoo …"
When Chiyo returned home and saw that his little grandson was fine, he couldn't help but feel relieved. He walked forward and slowly picked up Sasori, and softly comforted him.
"It's okay, Sasori, grandma bought you your favorite sticky candy. Don't cry, don't cry, good boy."
"Didn't grandma tell you not to enter the basement casually? Sasori, you have to be obedient in the future, okay?"
Sasori tightly grasped Chiyo's clothes with one little hand, and the other little hand was wiping his tears, and said with grievance.
"When will Father and Mother come back, I miss them, and I'm bored at home alone."
Hearing Sasori's words, Chiyo smiled kindly, gently stroked his fluffy red hair, and said kindly.
"Sasori, wait a little longer, your parents have gone to a faraway country, and they will come back to see you after a while."
"Before that, you have to be good."
Hearing Chiyo's words, Sasori nodded obediently.
Looking at such a well-behaved grandson, Chiyo showed a warm smile.
.....
At the same time.
Wood Leaf's Ninja team was heading to the Rock Ninja battlefield.
A tall and straight figure broke away from the group midway.
In the hidden forest, Yuusuke Fuji with a smile on his face, gently stretched out his hand and touched the void in front of him, and whispered softly.
"Black and white net, twenty-two bridges, sixty-six crowns, footprints, thunder, peak, return, night, sea of clouds, blue formation, fill the grand garden and go straight to the sky."
"Bakudo 77, Sky Piercing Sky Net!"
His hand was attached to the void, and a square of blue light instantly condensed in an instant!
"Zeng!" "Zeng!" "Zeng!"
As if some kind of pattern was extending, the blue light instantly spread along the square of spider veins!
Yuusuke Fuji carefully felt it.
Suddenly!
The corner of his mouth slightly raised, and his eyes flashed under the frame.
Found it!
