Chapter 167 Forgiveness (Ch 167)

When I clicked on the last episode, the Jonin and Chunin squads had been disbanded, and only dozens of Anbu were left near the Hokage building waiting for the Hokage’s orders.

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood on the top of the half-destroyed building, looking at the mess left behind by his old friend in silence.

No matter what unpleasantness had happened between the two of them in the past, it became insignificant the moment Danzo died.

The third generation Hokage, known as “Ninja Hero”, stood there for a long time, a rare hint of melancholy on his face.

But he was already a qualified politician, and he quickly calmed down and arranged for two consultants to handle the aftermath.

To appease the ninja clan, block the relevant news, repair the damaged buildings, clean up the mess, and deal with the lord’s questions…

There were many things to do, and even though he was the Hokage, he could only mourn for a short while.

The hem of the Hokage’s robe disappeared into the corner, announcing the official end of this incident.

[Sarutobi probably didn’t expect that Danzo would die as a judge]

[Everyone looked normal when they were young…]

[You choose your own path, and you must bear the consequences yourself]

[I only have three “no’s” to Danzo: no support, no understanding, no sympathy]

The soothing and melodious piano music is like a gurgling stream, bringing the audience a picture of the people of Konoha after the civil war.

The Inuzuka clan leader brought his granddaughter home, but was beaten up by his own daughter and raised his hands to signal his surrender;

The Hyuga clan leader sat in the living room, instructing two young men who looked exactly the same;

Pig, Deer and Butterfly gathered together to drink tea, play chess and chat about everything under the sun, showing no signs of sadness over the death of an advisor;

Kushina returned home, hugged Kana and jumped for joy, telling her some great news, the latter burst into tears after being shocked;

Jiraiya and Might Dai were making a fuss in the hospital, and Tsunade gave each of them a powerful punch and ordered them to shut up and keep quiet;

The Uchiha children excitedly and danced as they described to their parents how they were rescued, their eyes sparkling with admiration;

Mikoto burst into tears and was overjoyed. She dug the clothes out from under the closet and prepared to take them to the hospital at dawn to give them to their owner.

Finally, Kakashi sat in front of the bed, just like Naraku did back then, begging the important person not to leave him…

[The Inuzuka family is also quite funny hahaha]

[I feel like the ninjas are beginning to lose trust in the Hokage]

[Be more confident and remove the words “I feel”]

[Uncle Dai can finally stop feeling guilty, and Chanel’s light is back too, woooooooo]

[From now on, a story will be passed down among Uchiha children forever]

[Ms. Mikoto’s child has a brother again!]

[Stop abusing Kakashi and give Kanai CP some sweetness, please]

The music died down and the sky brightened.

The morning light filled the room through the window. Kakashi looked up drowsily and found that Naraku was still not awake. His sadness almost overflowed from the screen.

Chana walked into the ward, handed him the fried rice she had made, and asked him to eat some.

A few seconds of flashback footage is inserted in, in which Kana, with a confused look on her face, learns from Kushina that Kakashi had been tricked before, which was why he was so abnormal at the time.

She decided to believe it – after all, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the news of Naraku’s sacrifice almost took half of Kakashi’s life, and he couldn’t possibly lie about it.

Since that meeting, Kana apologized to Kakashi for the first time, but the latter said, “I should be the one saying sorry.”

“Naraku was so important to you, but I lost him.”

[My CP is alive, but not completely alive (tears)]

[Don’t let me know who is abusing our Kanai, or I will never let him go! (Angry)]

[The fried rice that Sakumo fed Kanae in the hospital was also golden.]

[Wuwuwuwu, I am completely breaking down in tears… Kakashi, please stop blaming yourself…]

[On my unfortunate couple who love each other but torture each other]

Kana asked Kakashi if he would explain the illusion, but he evasively stuffed himself with food and said he didn’t know.

He was afraid that even if he told the truth, Naraku would not reconcile with him;

I was also afraid that Naraku, that idiot, would believe such an absurd reason and forgive him too easily.

–Am I completely right about that?

— Blame everything on illusion, saying it was someone else’s conspiracy…

–Do I have the right to reconcile with Naraku with a clear conscience?

Kana saw through what Kakashi was thinking, and was so angry at this idiot that she snatched away his lunch box and spoon – of course, after he finished eating.

[Kakashi, you fool! At least let Naraku know that you never blamed him! Wuwuwuwu!]

[I can only say that Kakashi understands Naraku too well. He knows that Naraku is always thinking about others and is always being wronged. Kakashi himself doesn’t want to let himself go, so he is even more unwilling to let Naraku forgive him easily]

[But Naraku never blamed Kakashi… He was almost driving himself crazy…]

[I beg you, the mouth is for talking! (Going crazy)]

[Kaname: Eat, eat, eat! All you know is eating! (getting angry)]

[Sister, you hit me well! Hit me harder and wake this fool up!]

——

Naraku felt guilty, scratched his head, rubbed his face with both hands and dared not open his eyes…

He decided to wake up again today, comfort Kakashi, and try not to torture him in the future.

Naraku: For those who eat the knife, it’s enough to have an audience (no mercy).

——

The camera turned to the still unconscious Naraku, getting closer and closer until his trembling eyelashes were clearly visible in the frame.

Then the screen suddenly began to play many broken memories, which seemed like the nightmare that Naraku had experienced.

Under the bottomless cliff, the river water is cold and fast, endless;

In the dark and damp forest, a figure suddenly passed by, seemingly chasing, or escaping;

A blinding white light shone from above, and the needle pierced the skin, filling the blood vessels with a mysterious fluid;

The invisible person struggled violently in pain, blood covered the table and slid down the edge…

The chaotic scene came to an abrupt end.

Naraku woke up.

He opened his eyes blankly and moved his fingers accidentally.

Kakashi, who was staring out the window in a daze, suddenly felt himself touched. He looked up and saw Naraku with his eyes open.

[What the hell is this?]

[What on earth did Naraku experience? Woohoo…]

[Yeah, how did Naraku survive?]

[What does this mean? Hunting? Escape? Human experiment? Torture?]

[You old thief, explain it to me clearly! ]

[Is it a dream or a memory?!]

[I can’t tell, I really can’t tell]

When Naraku heard Kakashi asking him where it hurt, he realized that he was right next to him.

He subconsciously shook his head to deny all the pain he felt, and even couldn’t believe what he saw.

He just looked at the other person blankly and almost cautiously, fearing that this was a dream.

Because in his impression, the two of them hadn’t been so close for a long time.

Kakashi hadn’t spoken to him in a long time.

–This must be a dream… otherwise…

–Kakashi…why did you come…?

[Naraku never admits that he feels pain]

[I am so sad… My heart is a little uncomfortable…]

[He would rather believe this is a dream than believe he will meet Kakashi]

[I’m going crazy…I’m really going crazy!]

[Wow! I must have done a lot of evil in my past life! That’s why God made me eat Kanai in this life!]

Kakashi’s mind went blank. He couldn’t remember all the worries and concerns he had just had, and he spoke a lot of incoherent words.

Apologies, promises, explanations…all the words came pouring out at once.

As he spoke, he gradually regained his composure and nervously begged Naraku for forgiveness.

“Let’s make peace, okay?”

Kakashi waited for Naraku to judge him, but all he got was a few intermittent and timid responses.

“Kaka…xi…”

“Have you… forgiven… me…?”

“sorry……”

[Ahhhhhhh Naraku baby, what are you talking about!]

[Naraku never thought Kakashi was wrong, he just thought Kakashi was willing to forgive him (burst into tears)]

[How can I get rid of that curse? o(╥﹏╥)o]

[Kakashi, please tell me you love him! Say it!]

Kakashi now experienced what it felt like to have his heart broken.

He held this broken soul in his arms, and with tears in his eyes, he firmly told the other party again and again that it was not his fault.

But Naraku did not answer, but instinctively approached him and comforted him, staring at the ceiling silently, his eyes empty and blurry.

–Why is Kakashi crying…

–It’s me…did I do something wrong again?

–It makes Kakashi sad…

–I am still… not worthy of being forgiven…

Naraku in the picture fell into a coma again, and the last episode of the animation came to an end.

[I came to watch the animation, not to eat knives! ]

[Kakashi finally understood what Naraku had become now]

[Naraku is completely broken… He can’t even understand Kakashi’s expression correctly… TAT]

[In fact, Naraku can understand what Kakashi means, but he stubbornly thinks that it is his fault]

[I’m about to cry my eyes out… Who did Kanai offend?]
