Seeing Yao Shidou's admiring eyes, Dashewan smiled playfully, then walked forward without saying anything, leaving behind a faint sentence.

"Who knows."

-------------------------------------

At this moment, Lan Otoshimura's body began to show signs of collapse, and his back kept protruding backwards, as if something was about to come out of his back.

Naruto has used various methods to prevent the development of the collapse, because Arashi's collapse is a genetic collapse, and theoretically speaking, it is irreversible. Once the gene starts to collapse, it will trigger a series of situations. Even if it is sent to Orochimaru has no other way.

Lan was also aware of his situation at this time, the tearing sensation from his back made him almost crazy, and a strange desire arose in his heart, wanting to kill all living creatures in front of him, and then eat them Lose.

Lan forcibly suppressed the impulse in her heart, and said to Naruto with a difficult tone: "I... can I be saved?"

Naruto could only remain silent about Lan's question. After all, he had no feasible solution now. He was not very good at this aspect. He understands.Seeing Naruto's expression, Lan naturally guessed the answer in his heart, so he forced a smile and grabbed Naruto's hand with the last of his reason and said, "Don't... tell... Sasame..."

"Don't...don't let Sasamu see...see me like this..." Lan's voice became weaker and weaker, and the thing behind him seemed to be about to burst out: "You Just tell...Sasame...tell her...that I don't want to see her...and I won't...not go back to the village..."

"Tell me...that I don't want to go back to that boring village...what nonsense to revitalize the Fengmo clan...has nothing to do with me..." Lan tried to maintain his final sobriety and said: ""Let her...in the future...don't come to me..."

"Don't do anything after that, I know you are a good person, but this is my fate, no wonder others, Master Orochimaru did not force me to reform, all of this is my own choice." Lan seemed to be the last The flashback is normal, and the speaking speed becomes more and more fluent and faster: "Just pretend that I have never existed, so that Lord Orochimaru will not take revenge on the people of the Fuma clan, but it is a pity.... I In the end, the people in the clan were disappointed, and the failure to revitalize the Fuma clan was not to be blamed on Oshemaru-sama, but to our own uselessness...."

Does Lan really have no complaints in his heart? Of course it is impossible, but for the safety of the group, and for the group not to be retaliated by Orochimaru in the future, he can only let go of everything and bear it silently by himself.

Speaking of this, Lan used his last strength to stuff something into Naruto's hands, and then he could no longer maintain his sanity. Two things that looked like human faces on his back roared and rushed out, making monster-like roars together with Lan.

Naruto lowered his head slightly, tightly holding the thing that Lan gave him just now, roaring as if exhausting all his strength.

"Orochimaru--!!!"

Orochimaru, who was just about to enter the laboratory, paused slightly, turned around and asked the pharmacist with great interest, "Did you hear someone calling my name just now?"

"Calling your name?" Pharmacist adjusted his glasses in doubt and said, "I didn't hear it."

"Really?" Orochimaru showed a teasing smile, and walked briskly into the laboratory: "Maybe I got it wrong."

Five minutes later, Naruto stood in front of Lan's wreckage. The monster that Lan had turned into just now had too much vitality, and he could only kill him completely by chopping him into pieces alive.

Naruto looked at the heart-shaped necklace in his hand, which looked simple and cheap, and pursed his lips hard. In the end, he still didn't say anything, silently put away the scrolls scattered on the ground, and then burned Lan's remains with a torch. .

"Go at ease." Naruto muttered to himself looking at the gradually burned wreckage: "The Fumo clan... will be fine, you don't have to worry."

At this moment, Fumo Sasame was anxiously waiting in a cave.

That guy named Uzumaki Naruto has been gone for so long, why hasn't he come back, maybe something happened?

Thinking of this, Fumo Sasame hastily slapped his own mouth.

Bah, bah, crow's mouth.

While Fuma Sasame was praying silently, Naruto's figure gradually appeared in Fuma Sasame's sight.

Seeing Naruto's figure, Fuma Sasamu immediately got up and ran in great surprise, but as she ran, Fuma Sasame's speed became slower and slower, because she only saw Naruto's figure, and she did not appear behind him. The figure of Mu Xiang.

Fumo Sasamu looked at Naruto with no expression on his face, with uncontrollable fear in his pupils, and trembling lips, he said, "Lan... Where is Big Brother Lan? You haven't seen Big Brother Lan?"

"I see." Naruto replied in a muffled voice, and when Fumo Sasame heaved a sigh of relief, he suddenly said, "But your elder brother Lan asked me to tell you that he doesn't want to see you, and he won't go back to the village. , what nonsense to revitalize the Fengmo clan, go to hell."

Naruto said a little irritablely, but what he just said actually carried his own thoughts.

What nonsense to revitalize the family is to turn a person into a living monster in order to become more famous. Ninja family, go to hell.

"I don't believe it!" Fumo Sasame's first reaction to Naruto's words was disbelief: "Brother Lan can't say such a thing, he promised me!"

Speaking of this, Fuma Sasame suddenly looked at Naruto with some vigilance and said: "You didn't go at all, did you! No wonder you want to push me away. It turns out that you just wandered around for a while, and didn't go to Otonin Village at all!"

The more Fuma Sasame spoke, the firmer her expression became. This was also a self-defense mechanism of her brain, because she couldn't accept the facts Naruto said, so she subconsciously wanted to deny it.

"That's right!" Fumo Sasame said firmly, first glanced at Naruto with disdain, and then ran directly in the direction of Otonin Village: "If you don't go, I will go by myself! Brother Lan must be waiting for me there."

But of course Naruto couldn't let Fuma Sasam go by himself, otherwise Lan's hard work just now would have been in vain, so Naruto directly grabbed Fumo Sasame's arm.

"Let me go!" Fumo Sasame struggled, "I'm going to see Big Brother Lan! You coward!"

However, Fumo Sasa's voice stopped abruptly in the next second, because she saw something in Naruto's hand.

It was a necklace with a simple shape and a sense of cheapness. It was the coming-of-age gift she gave Brother Lan back then, and it was also their token of love.

"Cheating... Impossible..." The moment Fumo Sasamu saw the necklace, he collapsed on the ground as if he had been drained of all his strength: "Impossible...Brother Lan, how could he...he clearly promised me..."

"Now you believe it, I did meet your brother Arashi." Naruto tried his best to pretend to be impatient and threw the necklace on Fuma Sasame: "He told me that there is no such thing as a naive guy like you. Not interested, this kind of cheap goods are also used to give away, he doesn't like this kind of thing anymore."

"Impossible...Impossible..."

Fumo Sasame subconsciously murmured to herself, but the necklace in front of her told her very clearly that Naruto had really seen Brother Lan, and at the bottom of the necklace was the name of Brother Lan that she had engraved by herself back then, which cannot be faked. .

In the end, Fumo Sasame could only accept the reality. Brother Lan, whom she was thinking of, did not want her anymore, holding the necklace in his hand and crying loudly, like a child who lost his most precious treasure in an instant.

Naruto silently looked at Fuma Sasame who was sitting in the dirt and crying, pursed his lips, and didn't say anything, just sat beside him silently and didn't speak.

Mr. Ji, I feel like drinking.Hase Ryusheng and Nine Tails waited at the ferry crossing, and finally waited for Naruto to arrive.

"Finally back." Seeing Naruto walking slowly, Hase Longsheng said with a relieved expression on his face, "I didn't come back for so long, I thought something happened to you."

Compared to Hase Ryusheng's worries, Nine Tails on the side seemed calm and calm.

"I told you a long time ago that this guy is definitely fine." Kyuubi lifted his chin a little arrogantly and said, "I don't know what you've been anxious about."

Hase Longsheng retorted a little unconvinced: "You didn't follow Naruto, how did you know that there must be no problem, and you didn't just guess it by yourself."

Regarding Hase Ryusheng's rebuttal, Kyuubi shook his hair with some disdain and said, "Of course I know."

But then Kyuubi didn't say more. The reason why he knew that Naruto had no problem was actually because although he came out, he still had a contract with Naruto, and his Chakra and Naruto were still connected. When Naruto is injured, the Nine-Tails Chakra in his body will actively run to help recover from the injury.

Kyuubi can sense that his own chakra is not consumed at all. Since Naruto didn't even use Kyuubi's chakra, it is natural that there is no urgent matter. However, Kyuubi can only think about these things in his heart. He definitely wouldn't tell Chang Gu Longsheng.

Naruto looked at the two bickering, smiled and didn't say anything. Originally, he was going to escort Fuma Sasame back, but the other party didn't accept his favor at all, and ran away after shouting "I don't care about you" Lost.

In the end, Naruto quietly followed Fuma Sasame, and was relieved when he saw that the other party returned to the village home safely. Naruto had no feelings for Fuma Sasame, but only felt Yu Lan's good intentions, and didn't want such a person's hard work to be in vain. , so he worked tirelessly to quietly guard Fumo Sasame back to the village.

Seeing that Naruto had been silent, Hase Ryusheng couldn't help but asked worriedly: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong? Are you injured?"

Naruto didn't know how to answer Hase Ryusheng's question, so he could only silently shake his head and hands, "There is nothing wrong, everything is fine, and I am not injured."

Just when Hase Ryusheng was about to continue to say something, Nine Tails behind him suddenly pulled his hair forcefully.

"What are you doing!" Suddenly being pulled by someone's hair, Zhang Gulong turned his head angrily under the pain: "Don't think that I won't get angry!"

However, Jiuwei pointed to the port on the side and said: "If you don't buy a ticket, the last boat today will leave!"

Only then did Hase Longsheng come to his senses, quickly took the package to buy the ticket, and at the same time couldn't help complaining: "Really, if you buy the ticket, you can buy the ticket, just say no, why are you pulling my hair?"

Naruto looked at Kyuubi's actions in surprise, and after realizing it, he smiled with relief and said, "Thank you."

Kyuubi, on the other hand, had an expression of not being able to understand what Naruto was saying, rubbed his arms in disgust and said, "Thank you all of a sudden, I'm getting goosebumps."

Because the time to buy tickets was relatively late, all the other more affordable seats had already been booked, so Hase Longsheng could only book a more expensive four-person box in the end.

Naruto didn't have any opinion on this point, he just wanted to be more clean and clean, so the more expensive it is, the more expensive it is, the money is just for spending.

Nothing bloody happened during the voyage, even Jiuwei, who usually likes to run around and make trouble, was surprisingly quiet, and Hase Ryusheng was amazed to see it.

Because it was a ship this time, the speed was very fast, and it arrived at the port of Wave Country at about six or seven o'clock in the evening.

After Naruto got off the boat, he looked at the completed cross-sea bridge with some emotion. This bridge was something he saved with all his efforts with Bai Yuzai Buzhan. The team probably will fall into the hands of Zabu Zhan and Bai.

The majestic sea-crossing bridge can't be seen at a glance, even though it is approaching evening, there is still an endless stream of pedestrians and caravans on the bridge.

Standing behind Naruto, Ryusheng Hase stared at the magnificent building he had never seen before, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "How long and how much manpower and material resources will it take to build it?"

Hearing Hase Ryusheng's words, Naruto introduced with some pride: "Actually, it's not right to care about it. If it is built by ordinary people, it will take about two or three years for a team of about [-] people."

"It takes two or three years for a hundred people, that's not too long." Hase Longsheng said a little staggeringly: "Can building this bridge really make money?"

"In the long run, it will definitely be profitable." Naruto said with a smile: "Although the construction period of this bridge is long and the cost is high, the benefits to the country after it is completed are also obvious. This bridge can be completed, I don’t know how much the efficiency has been improved, it’s just..."

Hase Longsheng couldn't help asking: "Just what?"

"It's just that if you just look at the short-term benefits, this bridge must be at a loss." Naruto sighed and said, "It's very difficult to recover the cost of such a large-scale infrastructure construction within three to five years." If you want to make a profit, it will take more than ten years, so no one will take the initiative to spend money on construction.”

For facilities such as cross-sea bridges, if you want to charge fees, you usually collect taxes through the establishment of checkpoints, but the level of this tax cannot be raised too high, otherwise people's caravans would rather spend more effort to take a ship than take your cross-sea bridge. The sea bridge, merchants will only take the initiative to use your sea bridge when it is profitable.

But once the tax collection is less, it will be a matter of no time to recover the cost and realize the profit. It is already a blood loss for the businessman to recover the cost and realize the profit within ten years. Only fools will come to do such thankless things when the place makes a lot of money.

The real benefit of this sea-crossing bridge is actually subtle and invisible on the surface. After the increase in trade, the people of the Kingdom of Waves will be able to sell more goods in their hands, and at the same time buy them at a cheaper price. For commodities that are not available locally, the wealth in the hands of the people has increased, and the overall wealth of the local area has also been virtually increased.

In other words, the benefits of this sea-crossing bridge are long-term and intangible, and cannot be directly transformed into the interests of the rulers.

So this kind of project can only be done with the country as the main body or a large force like Konoha, because only this kind of force will consider things beyond the ten-year scale, and will also care about the overall wealth situation.

It's a pity that even though this is said, the countries and large forces in the world now count as one, and they don't care about this aspect at all. They are basically harvesting wealth endlessly, regardless of the life and death of the people at the bottom.

Even Konoha, after protecting the safety of the village name, spent most of the money on expanding the ninja team and building a ninja school, but because Konoha's leaders were kind and did not exploit the people at the bottom, Against the backdrop of other countries in the world, it appears very prosperous.

In other places, better leaders spend their wealth on militarism, crazily cultivating ninjas to increase military strength, and almost all of them are used for their own personal enjoyment, and none of them are good things.

In fact, to put it bluntly, all people do not regard the people at the bottom as human beings at all, but only as tools for their own ambitions and desires. As long as they hold military power firmly in their hands, in the face of the crushing strength of ninjas, the people at the bottom are not at all There is no chance.

The reason why the country of Waves was able to build such a facility is because their country no longer has a government, and there is no such thing as a ninja village. If you are poor, you want to change. Under the leadership of Dazna, they overcame many difficulties and built the bridge. .

In this way, it was built because of the good luck of the people in the Kingdom of Waves. If Dazna hadn't just fooled Naruto and the others into coming, I'm afraid they would still be living under Kado's reign of terror.

Longsheng Hase looked at the prosperity of the Namanokuni sea-crossing bridge, and said with some emotion: "If other countries are willing to do this, maybe there won't be so many people who can't afford to eat."

Naruto looked at the sky with complicated eyes, sighed to someone and said, "Yes, if this is the case, it would be great."

Naruto took Ryuu Hase and Kyuubi to the direction of Inari's house, and this time he came to the land of waves, he still walked through the familiar port and forest. When the teacher and the others passed by together, it seemed that no one was walking on a weedy country road, but now there is no sign of desolation. It is not a wide and solid road, but at least there are many pedestrians coming and going on the road. And it can be seen that the road has been specially widened and cleaned once, so that the vehicles to and from the caravan can pass smoothly, and the lively scene is far better than in the past.

Going forward with memory, I finally came to a familiar seaside house in the night. It was still the same wooden house as before, but the appearance was slightly changed. It was obviously renovated once, and the walls of the house were painted with brand new paint. , the roof is not as tattered and patched as before, and the number of floors of the house has changed from two floors to three floors.

After Naruto knocked on the door, he waited patiently, and it didn't take long before there was a response from the door.

"Who is it?" Inari, who had grown much taller, pushed the door impatiently: "I told you that grandpa is not at home, and it is impossible for us to join your shitty chamber of commerce—"

Inari's voice stopped abruptly, and he stared blankly at the person outside the door, with brilliant blond hair, carrying a backpack, and a warm smile on his face, just like the one he saw at the beginning.

Inari has grown a lot taller. At first, he was only at Naruto's waist, but now he is almost at Naruto's chest.

Inari was stunned for a moment, then tears welled up in his eyes, and with a trembling voice, he said in disbelief, "Naru...Brother Naruto?"

Naruto smiled and said, "Inari, long time no see, how is Grandpa Dazna?"

Inari quickly grabbed Naruto's hand, as if he was afraid that Naruto would disappear suddenly, then rubbed his reddened eye sockets, pulled Naruto into the room with all his strength, and said excitedly: " Brother Naruto, why did it take you so long to come? You promised to come back to see me as soon as you have time. It’s been so long. If you don’t come again, Brother Naruto, I really can’t help but look for you gone."

"Okay, okay, I don't know how to run, what are you afraid of." Naruto smiled and patted the back of Inari's hand and said, "Don't worry, I'm here to see you this time."

However, Inari didn't care about that much, and while pulling Naruto into the room, he shouted loudly to the people in the room: "Grandpa! Mom! Brother Naruto is here! Come and see! Brother Naruto is here!" !!!”
