Naruto: Start by eating the golden fruit.

Chapter 673: Last Words [I]

It was a cloudy and rainy day.

In a Buddhist temple in Konoha Village, Tsunade knelt on a futon, looking at the big Buddha in the temple, clasping her hands together and praying quietly...

This Buddhist temple was an excuse that Youya found to lure Otsutsuki Kinshiki out.

Although it was just an excuse, many monks still came.

Adhering to the fact that these people had nothing to do with Otsutsuki Kinshiki, Youya did not bother them and fulfilled his promise to build this Buddhist temple.

Today, Tsunade, who had never prayed to a god in her life, knelt on the cushion in the temple, looking at the Buddha statue in front of her, with her hands clasped together like a devout believer...

And what she prayed for...

Just one thing…

……

In the Death Forest of Konoha Village:
In an ordinary hut made of gold:
Youya was leaning cross-legged on a chair, while Orochimaru was fiddling with some equipment beside him.

There is a row of four test tubes on one side of the instrument.

These four test tubes are filled with liquid of unknown color.

“This is… filled with the world’s most deadly toxins.

If it hits the body directly, there is no chance of survival.

Even if it was me, I would be killed immediately..." Orochimaru said, lowering his head and fiddling with the instrument.

Yuya looked at Orochimaru and sneered, "It was only this body of yours that died. You must have many spare ones, right?"

Orochimaru said nothing, but continued to fiddle with the instrument.

You Ya took out a pack of mint cigarettes, put them in his mouth, took a light bite, and then lit them up...

"Hiss...hoo..."

You Ya let out a long, comfortable sigh and squinted his eyes to enjoy it.

Orochimaru tilted his head slightly, looked at Yuya who looked very happy, his throat rolled slightly, and he opened his mouth.

He knew he shouldn't speak at this time.

At this time, he just needs to do what he should do...

He doesn't need to do anything else...

Obviously...

He doesn't need to do anything extra...

Any additional words...

But Orochimaru still spoke softly:

"Is there...is there any other possibility?"

Yuya glanced at Orochimaru.

Orochimaru lowered his head and said softly: "Medicine is improving every day, it's just...

It’s just a matter of forgetting the memory… maybe there will be a way… maybe…”

You Ya curled his lips, picked up a notebook beside him while holding a cigarette, and complained: "I originally thought that the first person to persuade me would be my son or daughter, but I never thought it would be you, a pervert."

Orochimaru didn't say anything, but just stood aside, his hands hidden in his sleeves trembling slightly.

"Human memory... is a very precious treasure." You Ya leaned back in the chair, supported his head with his hands, chuckled and spoke softly, "If one day you forget the most important person or thing...

That feeling of emptiness in your heart can drive you crazy.”

Orochimaru pursed his lips and said nothing.

Yuya sighed, wrote Orochimaru's name on the notebook, and then changed the subject to Orochimaru:
"Speaking of which...

Now that it has come to the end, there is nothing left unsaid.

I want to ask, have you ever hated me over the years? "

Orochimaru remained silent.

"It seems that you are really dissatisfied with me for driving you out of Konoha Village. Well, since I am dying, don't be angry." Youya laughed.
Orochimaru curled his lips and turned his head away, ignoring Youya.

"After I leave... Tsunade, I'll leave it to you and Jiraiya to counsel her." Yuya supported his head with his hands and said with a smile, "I don't want to stay down there and suddenly Tsunade comes down with me, so I can have more free time."

“……” Orochimaru was silent, then nodded.

"Alright, alright, you better be careful when you do experiments next time. Don't stare at your own body every day. If something goes wrong one day, it will be really embarrassing.

Go ahead, let my idiot son and idiot daughter in."

Orochimaru stood up silently, then turned around and walked towards the door of the golden hut...

At the entrance of the Golden House, the patriarchs of the Uchiha clan, the Sarutobi clan, the Shimura clan, the Akimichi clan, the Nara clan and other clans gathered here.

At the same time, people from the Sand Village, the Iwagakure Village, the Cloud Village, and the Mist Village also gathered here.

People from the four major ninja villages still cannot believe that the guy who suppressed the entire ninja world for seventy years would actually choose to commit suicide.

It's just that you have the Thousand Hands Disease and will slowly forget things. It's not that you can't accept it and commit suicide, right?
Even now they don't quite believe it.

But looking at the current situation and the oppressive atmosphere, they also knew that they definitely couldn't speak at this time.

"squeak"

The golden door opened.

Orochimaru walked out from inside.

Jiraiya immediately rushed over and grabbed Orochimaru: "How is it?! Did you persuade big brother?! Big brother still hasn't changed his mind?!"

Orochimaru looked at Jiraiya calmly, then said to Yuuki and Yuulu who were standing by with a worried look on their faces: "Sandaime-sama... let you in."

You Lu's face turned pale and she staggered back two steps. Shisui quickly hugged his wife.

"Huh... Huh... I, I'm fine..." You Lu's lips trembled slightly and her body began to tremble as well.

But she still held on and did not let herself fall into a coma.

Yin Meng, who was standing by, blinked and took her mother's hand.

Xiao Yinmeng really doesn't have much impression of Youya.

But he also knew that it was because of his grandfather.

In the Kumogakure group nearby, the Fourth Raikage, whose hair and beard had turned gray, and the others looked at Yugi.

Yuji was silent for a moment, then looked at his son and daughter: "Yuji, Shishi, come in with me."

The two grown children nodded silently.

Yugi's wife holds Yugi's hand and tries to give strength to her husband.

Yugi forced a smile, then walked towards the Golden Gate with his wife.

Yuulu held Nemu in his arms and walked towards Konoha with Shisui.

In the large group, Naruto and Sasuke stood together. Naruto looked up at the rain that was blocked by the huge trees. He felt that it was God crying for the person who was about to die today...

You Ji and You Lu came in with their families.

As soon as I came in, I saw You Ya sitting with his legs crossed and smoking with a nonchalant look on his face.

When they saw a test tube connected to one side of Youya's arm, Youji and Youlu's first reaction was to go up and destroy those things.

"Alright, alright, stop looking at me like that. Sit down first and don't think about doing meaningless things. I want to die, not someone forcing me. Come on, let me see my good grandchildren~"

You Ji and You Lu let the three children go. You Ya happily rubbed the cheeks of his grandchildren, then sighed: "It's a pity that I can't see you get married and have children."

Youli and You Shishi remained silent.

Yin Meng blinked her big eyes and asked cutely, "Grandpa, why do you have to commit suicide? Can you stay and watch Yin Meng grow up?"

Youya tilted his head and looked at his lovely granddaughter, smiled, and asked softly: "Have you ever thought about what would happen if one day... Yinmeng didn't remember that her father was her father?"

Yin Meng shook her head: "No, Yin Meng will not forget it."

You Ji, his wife and You Lu all had tears in their eyes instantly.

Shisui on the side remained silent.

Youya touched Yinmeng's head with a loving look on his face.

"Cough, cough, cough..." Yin Meng coughed a few times, then looked at the cigarette butt in Youya's hand: "Grandpa, can you please stop smoking? Mom said it's bad for your health."

You Ya was stunned for a moment, then smiled and agreed to his granddaughter's request, putting out the cigarette butt in the ashtray beside him.

Afterwards, You Ya, Yin Meng, You Li and You Shishi talked about many things. He urged them to study hard and to pursue someone they liked bravely if they met one. Even if they failed, at least they had tried and would not have any regrets.

Afterwards, Yuya finally turns his attention to Yuki and Yulu.

"Actually... I've known for all these years that I'm not a competent father."

You Ya asked the children to return to their parents and continued, "I have never been to a parent-teacher meeting with you. I often have to work overtime and have very little time to spend with you. Most of the time, it is your mother who takes care of you. Many times, you are sick and I can't rush back. In fact, I know all this..."

You Ya shook his head and said, "Forget it, there is no point in talking about this now. If you are dissatisfied or blame me, I won't blame you, or...

If you feel like blaming me, that's great, at least...

It won’t be so painful…” Yugi and Yulu finally couldn’t hold back and shed tears.

You Ya sighed, wrote down the names of the people in front of him in his notebook, looked at them a few more times with some nostalgia, then waved his hand with a look of disgust and said, "Alright, alright, call the next one, let me think about who to call~

Well, don't let the people from other villages wait too long, let the four shadows come in, or they will say I neglected the guests."

Yuki and Yulu didn't move, they just looked at Yuya with tears in their eyes.

You Ya sighed: "You guys don't really want to persuade me, do you?"

"...Father...you..." Yugi spoke slowly.

You Ya waved his hand: "Don't speak, don't speak.

Leave yourself some wiggle room.”

You Lu couldn't hold back her tears any longer.

When You Lu started crying, Yin Meng couldn't help crying too.

Youya rubbed his brows with a headache and then waved his hand: "Shisui, take them away, hurry up."

Shisui hesitated for a moment, raised his head and looked at Yuya with a serious face: "Hokage-sama...you, are you really not going to consider it again?!"

Youya shook his head and looked at Shisui seriously, “I really thought about it carefully before making this decision.

Stop trying to persuade me, and give yourself some leeway."

Shisui opened his mouth, his throat seemed to be blocked, he had a lot to say, but in the end, he just remained silent, then took Youlu and Nemu's hands, turned around and left...

The moment they went out, You Ji and You Lu's legs went weak. Fortunately, someone nearby was paying attention and immediately supported them.

Shisui stood at the door, turned his head to look at the Third Hokage who lit another cigarette inside, sighed helplessly, and looked at the other four Hokage.

"Mizukage-sama, Raikage-sama, Tsuchikage-sama, Kazekage-sama, please come in... meet... meet the Third Hokage-sama for the last time..."

The four shadows looked at each other, and the meaning was very clear.

No, for real?!
The Fourth Raikage's hands trembled slightly, and then he gritted his teeth and snorted coldly: "Playing tricks! I don't believe that you, a piece of shit, will commit suicide!"

As he spoke, the Fourth Raikage took the lead and walked towards the golden hut.

The other shadows looked at each other and silently took their steps.

Ohnoki on Deidara's shoulder (yes, the old guy is not dead yet) sighed, then let Deidara take him in.

The Fourth Mizukage, Mei Terumi, who had become a mature leftover woman, hesitated for a moment but still walked in.

Gaara looked at his father who was following behind him.

Luo Sha took a deep breath, then raised his foot and said to Gaara, "Follow me."

Gaara bowed his head slightly: "Yes."

The group entered the golden cabin. As soon as they entered, the Fourth Raikage crossed his arms and looked at Youya with a mocking expression: "Third Hokage, what are you trying to do by doing this? Do you really think we believe that you will commit suicide? Ha, if you have the guts, just press it!"

You Ya, who was holding a cigarette in his hand, was stunned for a moment, then he looked at the Fourth Raikage with a smile: “You are indeed far worse than your father.

Well, since you said so, then I will..."

Yuya said, reaching for the button.

The Fourth Raikage's pupils shrank suddenly.

He didn't expect You Ya to not hesitate at all.

Luckily, Ōnoki reacted quickly and made the table float, preventing Yuya from pressing it down.

You Ya sighed: "Aren't you the ones who want to see me die the most? Why are you trying to stop me now?"

The Fourth Raikage gnashed his teeth and looked at Youya: "What bullshit are you talking about?! The way you die...

How can we possibly accept your death like this!"

You Ya laughed and said, "What's so unacceptable about this? Oh, I understand.

It’s because my death was so shocking, so you can only die in peace in the future, so you feel envious~"

"Who would envy a guy like you!" The Fourth Raikage complained loudly.

Oonoki looked at Yuya, his expression gradually becoming complicated.

"Have you... have you really thought it through? Sandaime... Actually, you can..."

You Ya curled his lips and said, "You old immortal are still alive. You are really capable of living. Chiyo, the Third Raikage and the Third Mizukage from the same era have all died."

Ohnoki's face suddenly darkened: "Can you be a little polite, man?"

"We have been rivals for so many years, well, and occasionally comrades-in-arms. Do we still need to be polite?" You Ya supported his head.

Onoki was silent.

He looked at the rubber needle connected to the test tube on Youya's arm, sighed, and stopped talking.
