Pirates: I will first max out the domineering color if I am not dead

"So, I can't answer your question."

"Because the meaning of life is not what others tell you, but depends on yourself."

After a pause, Xia Le smiled slightly.

"What kind of person do you want to be in this limited life span? What kind of things do you want to do?"

"To accomplish some goals and dreams of your own?"

"To change the people around you, to help the people who need to be helped, or to change the entire world?"

"It all depends on you, doesn't it?"

Orochimaru stood there blankly.

He has never viewed the scale and meaning of life from such a unique perspective. I just feel the death of friends and companions in the war, and lament the weakness of life.

"Everyone has a meaning for his existence!"

"Everyone is changing the world. An unintentional flower picking or a sincere smile will have an impact on the world."

"So, you can think that everyone's life has meaning."

"Similarly, it can also be regarded as meaningless!"

"Because most people don't change too many things throughout their lives!"

After a slight pause, Xia Le stared into Orochimaru's eyes, seeming to see through his heart.

"It's not so much that you're asking about the meaning of life."

"Rather, you are asking about the length of life."

Orochimaru was startled, his vertical pupils shrinking together.

"So, Xia Le, what do you think about the length of life?"

The brief conversation gave him some enjoyment. This feeling of communicating with others was like discussing Taoism.

"Human life has its own meaning!"

"But the length of life can be changed!"

After Xia Le was silent for a moment, he suddenly spoke up.

"Oh?"

Orochimaru's eyes lit up.

He is waiting for the other party's answer.

"In other worlds, life may have an end!"

"But here."

"The length of life may be extended indefinitely."

Taking a slow breath, Xia Le turned his eyes to Orochimaru.

"so."

"Ask questions like this."

"Orochimaru, do you want to live forever?"

In an instant, Orochimaru's body shook, and his whole person was in a trance.

Immortality!

This is such a tempting topic. For a man like him who laments the fragility of human beings, it is like poison, full of endless charm.

"It's just a joke!"

"You're not really tempted, are you?"

But soon, Xia Le's laughter came over.

Orochimaru was stunned for a moment, then took a deep look at the other person, and smiled in agreement: "Who can not be tempted?"

Xia Le shook his head: "In a sense, this is not a good thing."

Having said that, the smile on his face faded, replaced by a vicissitudes of life look, as if he had seen through the loneliness and emptiness of the world.

Three hundred years.

Relatives, friends, and descendants passed away one by one.

Watching the rise, decline, collapse, and reorganization of a dynasty.

Orochimaru stared at this face. His keenness made him seem to detect the secret deep in the other person's heart, and he couldn't help but feel shocked.

"Is this guy?!"

But in just a moment, Xia Le returned to normal and looked at the Chuunin who was walking towards them quickly.

"News from Konoha is coming!"

Orochimaru raised his head, retracted his inner speculation, and looked at the person.

"Master Orochimaru!"

The chunin bent down slightly and handed the scroll in his hand to the other party.

Orochimaru took it, unlocked the seal on it, and scanned it with his eyes. After a moment, a smile appeared on his face.

"The Third Hokage orders us to set off today and return to Konoha!"

Hearing this, Tsunade and Jiraiya both had smiles on their faces.

Immediately afterwards, the news quickly spread throughout the station.

After Orochimaru glanced at Xia Le, he went to send the message.

"Jiraiya, are you going back to Konoha? Or are you continuing to travel around?"

Tsunade asked.

"I think it's better to continue traveling!"

Jiraiya thought for a moment and said with a smile.

At this time, the team that had received the news of the retreat had become completely lively, and cheers could be heard from everywhere.

After a while, under the leadership of Orochimaru, the team reorganized and headed towards Konoha.

Xia Le followed the former, Tsunade on the other side.

The three Nagatos followed closely next to Xia Le, and on the other side were Jiraiya's disciple Namikaze Minato and some other genin.

"Minato, you just graduated and joined a battlefield like this? You're really awesome!"

Xia Le smiled as he complimented casually.

"Master Xia Le is ridiculous. If it weren't for Teacher Jiraiya's protection, I'm afraid."

Minato said quickly.

"Haha, it's already amazing!"

Xia Le smiled.

Minato, who was now just a genin, couldn't help but blush after receiving Xia Luo's praise.

He knew that the Uchiha master in front of him was quite powerful, as he could defeat a big shot like Sanho Hanzo by himself.

"Thank you for taking Nagato and the three of them to play."

Xia Le said again.

"It should!"

Namikaze Minato was stunned for a moment, then said.

"When I return to Konoha, I'll trouble Minato so I can take care of the three of them more."

Xia Le smiled.

"no problem!"

Minato agreed immediately.

He also gets along well with the three of them, especially Nagato, who, like Kushina, is a member of the Uzumaki clan.

Although his eyes are intimidating, his personality is very gentle.

Orochimaru didn't care, and Tsunade was a little surprised by the small talk between Xia Le and Minato. It seemed that she didn't expect that the strong men of the Uchiha clan could be so talkative.

Along the way, Xia Le and Minato talked about their daily training, their training experiences, and the development of ninjutsu, almost without stopping.

Not only did Minato suddenly realize something in certain places, but it also benefited Orochimaru and Tsunade a lot.

"Chakra may be seen as an invisible force."

"If the precision of its control is enhanced and the body is polished and exercised."

"It will be able to greatly increase physical skills."

"If we go one step further and can enhance our perception of our own body and external things, perhaps a new kind of power can be born!"

Xia Le said slowly.

This is the understanding he gained after understanding the rules of this world in recent days.

But there are still doubts about whether it is reliable.

I raise it at this time and hope to get the answer through them.

"You mean physical skills?"

Minato said unexpectedly.

Xia Le nodded.

Ninjas are all crispy chickens with high attack but low defense. From this point, it can also be seen that the development of the human body in this world is far less in-depth than the pirate world.

But in terms of the use of human cell energy, that is, chakra, it is a major advantage. But this chakra is also a big loophole.

Its roots come from the ancient sacred tree.

From this point of view, the most reliable power in this world is actually natural energy that is difficult for ordinary people to absorb.

Xia Le's eyes flickered during the chat.

We must understand the world and our own essential energy, so that we can avoid going astray and point directly to the most powerful and fundamental force in the world.

"Master Xia Le's perspective on power really made me suddenly enlightened!"

"I did neglect to train my body."

Minato said with a smile.

Xia Le didn't speak anymore.

This was just a casual chat on the way back.

But just this small chat caused huge changes for the few people involved in the future.

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking of the opponent's invulnerable body when fighting Hanzo, who could deliver shockingly destructive slashes with his physical body.

Obviously, Xia Le was already one step ahead in developing his body.

As for Tsunade, in comparison, Xia Le's strange and terrifying power was very similar to her strange power fist, but different at the same time.

The team maintained a steady speed and headed towards Konoha.

As time passed, we got closer and closer to Konoha.

-

The entrance to Konoha Village.

The civilians on both sides were crowded, looking out on tiptoes, with curiosity and excitement in their eyes.

"come yet?"

"Haven't seen it yet."

"Did we win this war?"
