Start with Naruto Awakening - Awesome!

　But by the time he came to his senses, Black Jue had vanished without a trace, leaving no mark whatsoever, as if...

　It never existed. /p(3/3)

Chapter 245 Let's End the Ninja Era (Part 1)

　This content was first published here.

　The Land of Rain, an unnamed wooden house.

　Haha, the food's served!

　Tsunade placed her personally prepared dishes neatly on the table, a smug look on her face.

　Wow, Lady Tsunade is amazing!

　Yahiko praised her without even looking at her or thinking about it.

　"You little brat, you have good taste!" Tsunade exclaimed, giving a thumbs-up.

　Yahiko smiled sheepishly, then turned his attention to the dishes, which were bubbling with an unusual purple hue.

　Colored bubbles, and an extremely pungent odor wafted out.

　Yahiko immediately covered his nose, looking like he had been poisoned, and dared not breathe, inwardly exclaiming, "What is this?!"

　"Tsunade, are you sure this is edible?" Orochimaru asked cautiously, cold sweat pouring down his back.

　Ye Chen remained silent; when it came to culinary disasters, he only admired Tsunade.

　She ruined a perfectly good chicken and mushroom stew into this terrible mess.

　Ideally, the final product should have a white, translucent broth, like milky white pearls, pleasing to the eye.

　It pleases the eye and enhances the taste buds.

　The soup in front of me was a deep purple color, covered with purple foam. Both the chicken and mushrooms were...

　When cooked until it's mushy, the aroma it releases becomes almost tangible, making it a veritable biological weapon.

　"Hey, Orochimaru, what nonsense are you talking about? It's fine, isn't it? It's just a little overcooked," Tsunade said.

　She refused to believe it, displaying a strange confidence that because she had made it herself, she couldn't believe it would taste so bad.

　This is a classic case of those involved being confused, while bystanders see things clearly!

　You will never be truly awake if you don't face reality.

　"Try a bite yourself first," Ye Chen said.

　"Yes, Tsunade-neechan, you should try it," Yahiko said, tears welling up in his eyes, which stung a little.

　Tsunade was skeptical, but she picked up a spoon and scooped up a spoonful, her eyes fixed on the spoon, looking at the deep purple broth.

　He frowned slightly; it seemed there might actually be a hint of that...

　However, Tsunade didn't think too much about it, which is why she admitted her cooking skills were poor.

　In front of Orochimaru, Yoruichi, and that brat Yahiko, he still had to save face.

　With that thought, he closed his eyes and drank a spoonful in one gulp.

　Yahiko's eyes widened, and he swallowed hard, looking utterly incredulous.

　He can actually eat that; he truly deserves to be called a legendary ninja.

　"Tsunade, how do you feel?" Orochimaru asked.

　Tsunade's expression froze; she wanted to speak but couldn't utter a word. Her features contorted involuntarily, scrunching up, and a chill ran through her.

　It hit my head, and my stomach felt like it was churning.

　vomit~

　Clutching her stomach, Tsunade rushed out the door; she needed to have her stomach pumped.

　moment.

　Tsunade's cooking was definitely inedible, and Konan had anticipated this, so she had prepared extra.

　With a handful of ingredients, dinner was quickly prepared. At this moment, Tsunade sat listlessly in the living room.

　(1/3)

　inside.

　On the table were several delicious-looking dinner dishes. While not extravagant, they were still quite appealing.

　It is pleasing to the eye and warm and tranquil.

　"This doesn't make sense, Konan! I saw you do it with my own eyes! How can there be such a big difference!" Tsunade covered her face with one hand.

　He said, rubbing his stomach.

　"Tsunade-neechan, watching someone do something and actually doing it are two completely different processes," Konan said with a smile, sounding very obedient.

　Alright, everyone's here, let's eat! Ye Chen said.

　"Yay!" Yahiko was the first to cheer. "Today is truly a day worth celebrating and remembering."

　At this moment, Tsunade, Orochimaru, Yoru, and Yahiko sat on the ground.

　Nagato sat silently, chewing slowly, without saying a word, trying his best to make everyone ignore him.

　Yahiko was the most talkative and lively.

　Xiao Nan, your cooking is absolutely delicious! Especially today, the taste is just amazing, even better than usual.

　"They're all delicious," Yahiko praised, going on and on, sparing no words of praise.

　"Heh, I can't even make you shut up while you're eating, Yahiko," Konan said.

　"Hehe, I know. It's because Teacher Ye Chen is back, and you made it especially for him!" Ya Yan said.

　He also made a funny face, which was quite mischievous.

　Upon hearing this, Tsunade glanced at the shy Konan, then at the calm-looking Yoru, and was immediately filled with vexation.

　The.

　Orochimaru silently ate his dinner. He couldn't remember how long it had been since his parents left this world.

　When these people sit together, there is no scheming, no deceit, and they speak freely.

　Looking back on the past twenty-odd years, aside from the time spent at the Ninja Academy and training under the Third Hokage, most of it has been...

　To carry out some covert missions in the shadows.

　Fresh flowers

　For a fleeting moment, Orochimaru felt the warmth of home, a feeling he hadn't experienced in a long time.

　This was something he had once longed for!

　But now he has grown up, experienced bloodshed and death, and is no longer so naive and childish!

　"Konan, why did Yoruichi take you as his students?" Tsunade suddenly asked.

　Upon hearing this, Xiao Nan secretly glanced at Ye Chen. Seeing that Ye Chen's face showed no emotion, she felt a slight disappointment.

　落。

　Yahiko answered quickly: "We asked Teacher Yoru to teach us ninjutsu so we could become ninjas!"

　"Why do you want to be ninjas?" Orochimaru put down his chopsticks and asked with interest.

　At first, it was because he didn't want to be bullied, didn't want to go hungry anymore, and also to protect his companions. Yahiko didn't even hesitate.

　I wanted to say it directly.

　"Did you have other reasons for saying that?" Orochimaru said.

　Of course!

　Yahiko stood up confidently, his eyes shining brightly, his pupils gleaming with anticipation for the future, and said:

　I want to reform and build a future nation of equality and freedom, a world without war. People will help each other.

　Watching over, people can

　Mutual understanding and trust, acknowledging each other's pain, and choosing to forgive!

　"Oh my, I didn't realize you had such lofty ambitions, kid!" Tsunade smiled noncommittally.

　She didn't discourage Yahiko; such a wish seems unrealistic now.

　How could there be mutual understanding and trust in the world of ninjas? And war would never end.

　"It's impossible for people to understand and trust each other without suffering," Orochimaru said.

　Having witnessed countless ninja wars, he scoffed at this naive idea!

　"Why?" Yahiko asked loudly.

　Because the history of ninjas is war and death. Endless war and death, without end. It's like a...

　"Reincarnation is inescapable, just like human desires are endless," Orochimaru said.
