I sell sweets in Konoha

Gaara, who was brought back to the present by this voice, looked at the person in front of him slightly blankly. He suddenly felt a little excited, but he quickly calmed down.

"Mr. Kira." Gaara seemed to finally breathe a sigh of relief and said, "Is everyone okay?"

"Everyone..." Kira's face, which was originally full of surprise and surprise, suddenly lost its smile. Such a seven-foot strong man was almost crying like a little girl.

But in the end, Kira resisted the urge to cry and said, "There are still a few lucky boys."

"You came from Sunagakure Village, do you want to come and sit in our camp?" Kira put down the sack in his hand and wiped his sweat with the towel hanging around his neck and said, "Now, everyone should be in the camp."

"Is it okay?" Gaara was a little excited, his eyes were on the uncle's sack, but he hesitated and said: "Work..."

"It's okay~ No delay." The uncle said as cheerfully as ever: "No delay, the main work hasn't started yet."

"It's just a trivial matter now. I can just find someone."

The uncle quickly found someone to help. It was just a small job.Anyone can do it. For the uncle, it's just a little warm-up exercise before the project officially starts.

As for the wages, he didn't particularly care.

It's just that it's not particularly easy to find people. There's a labor shortage everywhere in Konoha right now.

The uncle tidied his clothes and wiped the sweat from his face with a towel. If it were not limited by the current situation,Gaara had no doubt that the older man would spray himself with perfume.

"Hahaha~" The uncle saw Gaara's expression that was about to look dumbfounded. He said a little embarrassed, "Uncle, I am also the owner of a construction workshop after all."

"You have to pay more attention to your image."

I finally upgraded from a contractor to having my own construction company.

"Although it's basically finished now." The uncle's expression suddenly became low-key, but he quickly said with a smile: "But I heard that the Fifth Hokage will compensate us, so uncle, I should be able to make a comeback soon."

"Yes." Gaara responded: "Congratulations."

The uncle has changed. He is more or less different from the old uncle.There is less sweat and more copper smell.But an uncle is still an uncle.

Enthusiasm, cheerfulness, and of course kindness don't seem to be any less due to the excess of copper odor.

The uncle is still an uncle, and his hearty laughter is somewhat abrupt in this place that looks full of tragedy. He is as eye-catching as the only touch of red on the black and white TV.

But this red color seems to be affecting the surroundings on its own, gradually dispersing concealment and making the world colorful.

We quickly reached the campground.

There were people he knew in this camp and some he didn't know, but in general there were few he knew and many strangers.

"Those people who were there at the time are all here now." The uncle said a little depressed: "Some people left after the project was completed, and now these are the only ones left who worked on the workshop together, and the rest are Newcomer."

"Hey, friends, let me introduce an old guy." The uncle gently pushed Gaara forward.

Then he started introducing, introducing the surviving people, and also introducing Gaara.

Those who knew each other were naturally happy, and those who did not know also came to join in the fun.Meeting new friends is one of the joys of life after a disaster.

Gaara wasn't good at talking or smiling, so this little gathering that wasn't really a party quickly went cold.

Except for those old friends who knew that Gaara had always been like this, the others quickly dispersed.

"Asiwen, old man, they are all dead." The uncle took a puff of cigarette and said a little lonely: "They died in the first wave of the impact. When they were dug out from the ruins..."

"I almost didn't recognize it."

"Well..." Gaara nodded without saying anything.

"Suddenly I'm a little envious of you." The uncle suddenly smiled and said with envy: "If we had chosen to go to Sunagakure Village, we wouldn't have encountered such strange things."

"Hmm..." Gaara responded.

"But... Sunagakure Village is very poor." Gaara said: "You will have no work even if you go there, and there is no Kage as powerful as the Fifth Hokage in Sunagakure Village."

"Being able to protect everyone."

"Protect everyone?!" As soon as Gaara finished speaking, a bald boy said in a strange tone: "Protect? Are you kidding? Look, look, Konoha Village has become like this. , how many people died!"

"What did she protect? What qualifications does such a useless guy have to be Hokage?!"

"She's still protective. Give her a dog and she can't protect her."

"That's enough!" The uncle's expression changed and he immediately scolded: "Go away, don't talk nonsense! Is it your evaluation of the Fifth Generation? You really say everything!"

"Hmph..." The bald man didn't seem to calm down after being scolded by the uncle. He just walked away filled with anger.

Gaara looked at the man walking away. He seemed a little confused and said, "Why... scold the Fifth Hokage?"

"It's just some rumors..." The uncle seemed a little helpless and said: "Really, although the Hokage has not expressed his position on this statement for the time being, it does not mean that the Hokage will be very condoned by this statement, in case there is a settlement. ..."

Gaara didn't understand why his uncle was like this. The Fifth Hokage didn't seem to be such a person.

"Uncle feels the same way?" Gaara was a little confused by the uncle's statement that did not directly answer his question.

"..." The uncle stopped talking, squatted down, took a puff of cigarette and said, "What do you think? If you were to speak from the perspective of a bystander."

"The Fifth Hokage is very strong." Gaara didn't know how to lie. He felt that what he said might not be what his uncle wanted to hear but he said it anyway.

"If it were any other ninja village, it would be impossible to do better than her, if it were the Sunagakure Village."

"I'll probably be removed from the list now."

"Is that so..." The uncle seemed to have figured out something and said, "Uncle, I remember that you are a ninja and the second son of the Kazekage of Sunagakure Village."

"For you, what you can see is very wide, and the angles are also different."

"But for the rest of us all we can see is this ruin."

"The Five Dynasties may have made up for it before it happened, but they did not nip it in the bud."

Gaara didn't understand why he saw different things.But now he felt like he suddenly understood another problem.That's what shadow is.

Why did the Fifth Hokage make that choice.

Because as a shadow, you are not only a hero who is recognized and promoted to a high position, but you are also the one who takes the blame and takes the blame for the darkness.

To get out of this kind of tragedy, ordinary people always need a window and object to vent.

Compared to the enemy who came without a trace and was beaten to the point of leaving no trace of his body.

Naruto is probably the best scapegoat...

Chapter 487 Sailing to the future

"How can I describe this feeling?" Junko stretched and said, "Long live resignation!"

Junko smiled with a relaxed look on her face, and she seemed to feel much more relaxed all of a sudden.But it may be that she is the only one who thinks so.

"Is this really okay?" Boruto seemed to feel unworthy of Junko's decision.

"Hokage-sama is also a hero who protected the village. You defeated with all your strength..."

"Hmm..." Junko didn't feel like listening to Boruto's words. This kid probably meant well, but after all, he was a bit too idealistic without having received much practical education.

"That's about it." Junko shrugged and said nonchalantly, "Being a hero is too tiring."

"The same goes for being Hokage. You always have to bear too many expectations, whether they are what you want or not."

"I am a human being, not a god. I cannot do everything perfectly, even if it is just a small problem."

"Everyone might be laughing and joking, but this is no small problem."

"Anyway, that's it. It's actually pretty good."

At this point, Junko didn't want to say anything.There were many reasons for her choice to retire, although the fighting she showed in this battle was enough for her to continue to stay in this position.

But you may not be able to live more comfortably than before, and there are many factors to consider.

Junko still stepped down from this position.

"Aren't you going to finish the funeral?" Sasuke asked, "You're here just like this."

"No." Junko still couldn't keep her smile on. She said a little lonely: "I better not ask for trouble. Since I have decided to do this, then don't cause trouble for yourself."

Junko knew this from the moment she decided to take the blame, take the blame, and become a window for people to vent their pessimism.

This funeral was no longer objectionable to her, and she probably only suffered humiliation wherever she appeared.As the saying goes, the one who climbs the highest is the one who falls the hardest.

When she fell from the position of Hokage and from the position of hero, it was destined that she would fall the worst.

Rather than being like a rat crossing the street and being yelled at by everyone, you must appear on that high platform.

It's better to just run away like a mouse now.

"Okay." Sasuke stopped pursuing the question and instead asked, "Then what are you going to do now?"

"I plan to go to the future to see." Junko gave an answer that neither Sasuke nor Boruto expected: "Don't be surprised. I have traveled through history and been to the past. Of course I am also interested in the future."

"It fulfills one of my curiosity, and I, a person from the past, will not change your future in the future."

"Of course I will not take the initiative to learn information about the past, nor will I tell them that I come from the past."

This is more like a long-cherished wish to be fulfilled than curiosity.

No matter what, Naruto was the anime that accompanied him through most of his childhood in his previous life. It can even be said to be the only anime.

Then I left the house and got out of the trap, and because of Shippuden's stinky, long, and drawn-out plot, I didn't watch it much.

But at least I still know a little bit about the ending.

Junko still really wants to know what the future will look like and what kind of family these teenagers who have accompanied her through childhood and school days have.

"This...this request." Sasuke said with an embarrassed look on his face: "This request, we..."

"It's okay, I know as much as you do." Junko said, "I don't know how to deal with paradoxes, and there is no me in your world, right?"

"But there is Tsunade." Sasuke was still embarrassed and said: "Well, Tsunade..."

"Don't worry, there will be no problem." Junko comforted, "I promise, by the way, the Noble Phantasm you use to travel through space should have no chakra fuel, right?"

"..."

As soon as Junko said this, Sasuke and Boruto seemed to be facing a particularly difficult dilemma.

The turtle did retract into its shell due to insufficient chakra, so if there is no chakra supply, it is very likely that it will not be able to return.

But whose chakra is used?

Large quantity, enough tubes, good quality?

Apart from Naruto, Junko seems to be the only one left, right?

"How do you know?" Sasuke asked in embarrassment: "That turtle's chakra is not enough?"

"Then how do you think I knew you were coming?" Junko asked, "Don't underestimate the Konoha intelligence system and special ANBU in this world."

"This group of people has never been a freeloader. You were targeted from the moment you appeared."

"All information is fed back to me in real time."

Although the ANBU in the previous life's anime were just like soy sauce, the ANBU in this life are really elite.Although they are not directly involved in conventional combat.

But on the hidden front, these people did an excellent job!

"You don't have to think too much about Naruto's chakra." Junko said with a smirk, "I don't know if Tsunade's chakra is enough, but you don't have to think too much about her chakra either."

"Only my chakra can be used by that turtle of yours, and of course I won't give it in vain."

"And I've helped you so much. I'm not helping you in vain."

Junko's appearance as a profiteer immediately made Sasuke and Boruto helpless. They thought about it carefully for a while before finally remembering it.The Hokage in front of me~

Even if he retires from the position of Hokage, he is still a big chaebol!

And he is a very influential chaebol!

Can't afford to offend~can't afford to offend~.

"Yeah." Sasuke said, feeling that he could still save something in the end: "Then you should know that we are two people in different time and space in different worlds."

"When did you have the illusion that I didn't know about this?" Junko asked, "We were still talking about this just now."

"Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to come back?" Sasuke asked cautiously.

"As long as we can go, I can definitely come back." Junko said, "And I know that another problem you are worried about is if I use this Noble Phantasm indiscriminately."

"When the time comes, you can just follow me for one more walk. Go there first, and then come back with me. You can go back with your Noble Phantasm."

"Of course, what you have in your world must also be available here."

"It's just that I didn't look for it."
