Chapter 598: Reconciliation
Foreman Hiruzen Sarutobi and Team Leader Danzo Shimura looked at the great hall that had suddenly burst into a dim light. Both of them were a little puzzled.
More than fifty life stakes had been sent over intermittently before. They had already questioned them one by one. These were all bad people of various identities, all of them had been knocked out by all sorts of random people. When they woke up, they were already on the Shinigami's side. They hadn't provided much valuable information at all.
What was going on now? Had two new companions arrived?
The old Third was the most composed. Danzo was still alive, a living person. He, on the other hand, was already dead.
The old man smoked his pipe and looked at the great hall. "It seems an important person has arrived. They're probably not here to work with you."
The Third was a spiritual body, and his own yin nature level was high, so he could naturally make his spiritual body look like he did when he was alive.
Danzo couldn't. Danzo was now a living person who didn't need to eat or shit.
He had been ordered around like a coolie by the old Third for who knows how long. At this moment, he was shirtless, showing his skinny upper body, and was wearing dirty pants and a pair of cloth shoes. He looked exactly like an old migrant worker on a construction site.
He and the old Third looked into the great hall together.
It seemed there were some soundproofing measures. They couldn't hear the conversation inside.
They could only see two humanoid phantoms talking.
Danzo, as if he had discovered a new continent, suddenly said, "The person sitting on the left... looks like Sasuke Uchiha?!"
In fact, the Third Hokage had also noticed something. He felt that the young man sitting on the right looked a bit like Naruto.
He used to go and deliver living expenses every month and was very familiar with Naruto. In his eyes, this Naruto now looked exactly like a young man.
How many years had he been dead? His sense of time was getting weaker and weaker. Was Naruto already this old now?
"This must be the Uchiha's conspiracy!" Danzo felt that he had finally found the mastermind.
Good grief, to get me to work in such a crappy place. This is a blatant humiliation! The Uchiha clan is truly vicious! Don't you dare give me a chance. If I can return to the world of the living, I will definitely make Sasuke Uchiha pay!
The Third Hokage also had the wrong idea.
The Shinigami's Reaper Death Seal was a technique of the Uzumaki clan. Were there still Uzumaki in Konoha now? There was one, and that was Naruto Uzumaki!
Could it be that Naruto had learned of his parentage and had used some means to get his soul from the Shinigami's side?
The two old partners secretly exchanged their intelligence.
They both felt that the other's guess had some truth to it.
All of this was a conspiracy secretly cooked up by Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki!
"Huh?" Ino, who was still in Konoha, found that she had suddenly gained two Blame Points. She was a little strange for a moment. Where did these come from?
What did I do? I didn't do anything, did I?
"Brother, I can see that Sasuke has completely given up his hatred. That boy has embarked on a new path. His brother and his parents all showed gratified smiles at the end. Haven't you awakened yet?" Ashura said sincerely.
Indra covered his face. Ino's method of pulling the two of them was too rough. And as a reincarnated body, Sasuke's mood had actually affected him.
He didn't want his younger brother to see his fragile side. He lowered his head and didn't speak.
Ashura continued, "Whether it's Madara or Sasuke, they have both inherited your destiny. But at the same time, their love has also filled your heart. Brother, I know you have completely changed. Our thousand-year struggle should come to an end. I beg you, forgive me, and let everything return to peace."
Indra's heart was also quite complicated.
He was an extremely proud person, and also a thorough smart person.
The position of the successor of Ninshu might have been very important at that time, but looking at it today, was it still important? It was not worth mentioning.
He knew that Ashura's kindness had not changed. The reason he had been reincarnating with him was to be a "punching bag." When he reincarnated, the other would immediately follow. Every time his reincarnated body thought of destroying the ninja world, the other would stick to him like a dog-skin plaster.
His reincarnated body had been beating up the other's reincarnated body for a thousand years, and it had never changed. Except for Hashirama Senju. The Hashirama of that life was ridiculously strong. He had beaten Madara so badly that he had been reincarnated...
Ashura held out a hand and said earnestly, "Brother, let's reconcile. Let this bond finally come to an end."
He smiled a little bitterly. "Hashirama took too much of my chakra. The time I'm conscious is getting less and less. After a few more reincarnations, my consciousness will probably dissipate completely."
In a daze, it seemed that the young and helpless younger brother had returned.
Indra's attitude was still arrogant, but a smile had appeared at the corner of his mouth. "Likewise. Madara's fusion of the Rinnegan also consumed a lot of my chakra."
Ashura smiled very gently. "Madara loved his younger brother Izuna. I see that Sasuke also loves Naruto like an older brother. Brother, I believe our brotherhood will last forever."
"Hmph, you idiot. After so many years, you're still so weak!" Indra seemed very hesitant, but seeing Ashura's encouraging eyes, he still slowly extended his hand. The hands of the two brothers were once again tightly clasped after a thousand years.
Ino had been in Konoha all along.
She had only helped to arrange the venue for Indra's and Ashura's meeting. As for what the two of them said and what results they came to, she didn't care. That was a matter between the two brothers. Their father was watching from a distance. There was no need for her, this junior sister, to get involved.
Judging by Sasuke's final reconciliation with Naruto at the Valley of the End, the two of them were actually just one step away.
Before long, Sasuke was the first to wake up, followed by Naruto.
Minato and Sakura had strange expressions. It was reasonable for Sasuke to be so moved and faint after seeing the souls of his own parents. But what did this have to do with you, Naruto?
Minato felt that being both a father and a mother was a daunting task. He absolutely could not let his son go down the "wrong" path.
The information Ino sensed was very clear.
The Ashura chakra in Naruto's body and the Indra chakra in Sasuke's body had all disappeared. Those two should have officially reconciled and ended their thousand-year bond.
From now on, they would no longer reincarnate.
In the future, even if Sasuke had Naruto's "flesh" in his mouth, he would not be able to obtain the power of all creation and evolve the Rinnegan.
Of course, the matter of the Sage of Six Paths helping them to cheat was another story.
Now that Indra and Ashura no longer existed, the fated bond between Sasuke and Naruto had disappeared. All that was left was their own friendship.
