Chapter 1231：

Xiao Nan turned his head secretly.

I saw a flower seller over there.

This should be when the flower seller trimmed the broken flowers. Yahiko asked the other party to sell it to him cheaply.

For Yuyin, who lacks sunlight and is always rainy, flowers are luxury items.

Xiao Nan can understand the current situation, but she can only stare at the flowers in front of her in a daze.

Then Yahiko looked away suddenly and handed the flower to Xiaonan.

Xiao Nan smelled the sweet fragrance of flowers.

"It goes well with Xiaonan..."

Then Yahiko hurriedly said: "It's a shame to throw it like this..."

Finished.

He glanced at Xiao Nan secretly again, and quickly diverted his gaze again.

Xiao Nan's face was also red.

The two stood on the street.

One maintains the posture of holding flowers, the other is at a loss.

For a while.

Xiao Nan slowly reached out and took the flowers.

End of this chapter

"Um...ah, that, what..."

Yahiko scratched his head.

Then turned and left.

Or walk away with hands and feet.

Xiao Nan looked at Yahiko's back, and his heart was full.

"Thank you, Yahiko..."

"Oh......"

Yahiko did not look back, but nodded with red ears.

......

It didn't take long to bring the flowers home, the flowers gradually withered.

It is different from paper flowers.

The life span of flowers is very short.

Although just putting the flowers back in this way, it is also a way.

But Xiao Nan didn't want to lose this flower.

"finished......"

On the fourth day of putting heavy stones.

When Xiao Nan was alone, he came to confirm.

Because it is the first time to make dried flowers, the shape is slightly ugly.

But Xiao Nan was very satisfied.

Because of this, this flower can always be with you.

"......it's beautiful."

"!"

Nagato suddenly appeared behind Xiao Nan, looking at the dried flower.

"Nagato...!"

When did you come back?

Looking at Xiao Nan's rare embarrassed expression.

Nagato smiled.

"In the past few days, I always feel that there is something wrong with Xiao Nan...Is it this..."

Nagato turned over the frog board on the wall.

Sat on the floor.

Xiao Nan hid the dried flowers wrapped in paper in the corner of the table.

"Are you not hurt, Nagato..."

"It's okay, Yahiko will be back soon."

"That's it... then I'm going to get some food."

"Um."

When they met, Nagato was as small as dead.

He has reincarnation eyes with special abilities.

Although many people were shocked by those eyes.

But now, he is an excellent ninja both physically and mentally.

"What's wrong? Do you think of Teacher Jilaiya?"

After the meeting where the two were preparing food, Nagato suddenly looked at the frog board.

Jilai is also a ninja from Konoha Village who taught Xiaonan their ninjutsu.

"When the teacher left, Yahiko once comforted Xiao Nan and said that he would meet again in the future."

"Um."

"I have made an appointment with the teacher, so...I want to keep this agreement and see the teacher bye."

Although it has grown a lot, there are still things that will not change.

At the beginning of the encounter, Nagato was a gentle boy, and there is still a trace of gentleness in his heart.

It is his wish to create a world without war.

The same is true for Yahiko.

In order to save Yuyin, he will not hesitate to break his bones.

"Yeah, I want to hold on too..."

Xiao Nan nodded as if affirming their dreams, but for some reason, Nagato suddenly laughed.

"Nagato?"

"Huh? How should I put it, I recently noticed something..."

"Notice one thing...?"

"Um......"

Nagato's expression was very calm.

"Now, in this country where you can lose something at any time, I probably don't have the mood to think about it...or I haven't noticed it."

"?"

"Maybe Xiao Nan has something different from ours..."

"What am I......"

Nagato looked at the dried flower.

"Xiao Nan..."

Nagato smiled suddenly.

"The flower will bear fruit one day..."

Xiao Nan didn't understand Nagato's meaning at the time.

"Blood and tears flowed and the dark clouds dissipated, the light of dawn illuminates everything equally, and the rainy ground is full of flowers. The most important thing for me is that the day when I have more people I want to protect may come. ."

......

Xiaonan faced the wind and flew to Yuyin Village.

The warm memory pierced the current Xiao Nan.

In a desperate environment, Nagato who has hope.

Now he is staying in Yuyin's tower.

In the dark room, a man was in pain.

Faint and haggard.

Protruding ribs.

Use chakra to change the destiny of peace.

It was totally different from that day...the peace they hoped for.

"call......"

Xiao Nan took a deep breath and wiped his forehead.

She lowered her head.

I found that the ground was full of withered flowers.

——The flower will bear fruit one day.

Xiao Nan remembered what Nagato had said.

Xiao Nan understands very well what Nagato dreams of.

But......

Xiao Nan clenched his fingers.

"Now it's..."

I am already a flower that cannot bear fruit.

Because.

Yahiko is dead.

The love between the two will never end.

Her memories are always rainy.

There are Yahiko and Nagato.

But the memories of the three people laughing at each other disappeared that day.

That day—it was the day Yahiko died.

In order to achieve the goal of achieving peace without relying on violence, Yahiko and the people who agree with him are preparing to negotiate peace with the head of a village in Yuyin Village...the demigod Sanshoyu Hanzo.

But Yahiko died because of himself.

Hanzo caught her.

And use life as a threat.

Sanjiao Hanzo told Nagato that he killed Yahiko if he wanted to save Xiaonan.

——Leave me alone, run away!
