In Naruto, build the strongest Hidden Mist Village.

Chapter 39 Lin, go and help me see another world.
In the dark and deep dungeon, only the rapid breathing of two people could be heard.

Lin took off her mask, lifted her neat short hair, revealing two eyes filled with tears.

Tears streamed down her cheeks, and Lin, who had been strong for so long, finally couldn't help but reveal her emotions.

"Kakashi, you're still alive. I'm still alive. That's good."

"Lin."

Seeing Rin's tears streaming down her face, Kakashi trembled slightly. He stood up, wanting to embrace the girl before him.

At that moment, a face with only half of its face showing slowly emerged from the depths of my heart.

Obito.

Kakashi stopped, looked at the frail Rin in front of him, and gritted his teeth.

Lin.

I am sorry.

Obito, he's still waiting for me.

I must bring him back.

So learn to be strong, because from now on, you'll have to walk this path alone.

Kakashi.
Lin silently lowered her outstretched arms. Knowing her friend well, she had already vaguely guessed what was going on.

Kakashi, are you trying to make me stronger?
So, I have to stay in Kirigakure and can't go back to the village?

Lin's heart sank.

But a glimmer of hope made her want to ask.

She reached out and wiped away her tears, erasing the sadness from her face, and looked at Kakashi, whose face clearly showed more hope and who was no longer as dejected as before.

"Kakashi, I have only one question."

"Do I really have to stay in Kirigakure instead of returning to Konoha?"

"Lin."

Kakashi's expression turned serious.

Only by dispelling Rin's thoughts and letting her stay in Kirigakure could he search for Obito's whereabouts with peace of mind.

"You just need to stay in Wuyin and wait for me."

"No, let's not investigate any further."

He paused, and his usually cold face softened a bit.

"Also, could you help me see what life is like in Kirigakure?"

"If it suits our tastes, we'll live there in the future."

"And I'll also bring you a gift then."

"A gift that you will absolutely be satisfied with."

"Oh."

Lin nodded, agreeing to Kakashi's request, and deliberately curled the corners of her mouth, pretending to be relaxed.

"Then it's a deal, Kakashi."

She raised her fist, revealing a long-lost youthful vibe, and threatened.

"If you dare not come back to me, I'll make you regret it!"

"Obito will absolutely not allow such a thing to happen!"

Upon hearing Obito's name, Kakashi's heart skipped a beat and pounded.

His eyes focused on Lin's smile, and his heart pounded violently.

Rin, Obito, don't worry.

Sooner or later, I will make sure you can live the life you used to live!
"Kakashi."

"Why is it like this again?"

Lin frowned, as if the sorrow in her heart had completely dissipated.

"It's so rare to see each other, who knows when we'll meet again."

Why are you still so cold?

Kakashi forced a smile.

"His smile looks uglier than his tears."

Lin said with dissatisfaction.

Just as he was about to continue speaking, looking at Kakashi's face, he couldn't help but think of Obito. Overwhelmed with grief, he almost couldn't hold back his tears and immediately turned to leave.

Kakashi reached out his arm, but couldn't bring himself to lower it. Only when the beautiful figure was about to disappear from sight did he hurriedly shout.

"Rin, in Kirigakure, believe in Kaguya Naoki."

The latter waved his hand, turned right, and disappeared completely from Kakashi's sight.

"Lin."

"Live well."

Kakashi muttered a few words to himself and leaned back against the corner of the wall.

His anger gradually dissipated, leaving only gloom on his face.

"Kakashi, I'm sorry."

In that secluded corner, Lin couldn't help but let all her tears flow, soaking her entire clothes.

"I couldn't hold back any longer and ruined this farewell."

"I will definitely listen to you and live a good life in Kirigakure. You must come back."

"Are you alright?" Lin stopped sobbing, quickly wiped away all her tears, stood up in a panic, and looked at the girl in front of her with a beautiful figure and smooth, fiery red hair.

She knew Mei Terumi, the woman who was Kaguya Naoki's lover.

"It is okay."

Lin forced a smile.

Kakashi wouldn't lie to me.

Therefore, I must believe in Naoki Kaguya.

This woman who is like Naoki Kaguya, I suppose I could be considered one of those I believe in.

Terumi Mei glanced at it worriedly a few times, but didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only say gently.

"Put it on, this is a new mask."

"After all, your identity cannot be known by others."

Nohara Rin nodded blankly, then looked down at the metal mask in Terumi Mei's hand, reflecting the grass and river.

She took it and gently stroked it, thinking of the Konoha headband she used to wear, feeling a little hesitant and reluctant.

But I have to keep my promise to Kakashi.

Lin let out a long sigh and pressed the mask onto her face.

From now on, I will be a Hidden Mist Ninja.

With mixed feelings, Nohara Rin looked up again.

Mei Terumi looked at the mask and knew that she had made up her mind.

"Then come with me, we'll be busy later."

After saying that, the girl with fiery red hair turned around and walked forward without caring whether Nohara Rin would follow.

Nohara Rin, whose mind was still a little blank, immediately followed.

After walking for a while, we saw the sunlight and took a few quick breaths of the fragrant mountain air, when a strange smell immediately filled the air.

It smelled like burnt flesh mixed with some kind of disinfectant.

Is this a hospital?

Ah!
One scream after another rang out.

This is a hospital.

Rin Nohara has confirmed it.

Is it the hospital hidden in the mist?

Why is it so rudimentary?

Pushing open the wooden door, dozens or even nearly a hundred patients lay on the crowded beds, their eyes lifeless, their bodies revealing raw, bright red flesh and sallow skin.

They're dying.

A hint of tenderness flickered in Nohara Rin's eyes.

I guess you could call them companions.

I must save them.

"Lin."

Mei Terumi turned her head, her voice trembling slightly, and Rin Nohara could even see a few tears in her eyes.

"Can you help us?"

"Save them."

Nohara Rin touched the mask on her face, looked at the patients, and said firmly.

"it is good."

"And what about the other doctors?"

Mei Terumi looked embarrassed.

"You're the only one."

"Am I the only one?"

Looking at the dense crowd of patients, Nohara Rin felt a bit overwhelmed.

“There are also some assistants.”

Nohara Rin breathed a sigh of relief.

Mei Terumi waved her hand, and several lightly wounded men leaning on crutches stood up, revealing a simple and honest smile that was inconsistent with the usual Kirigakure ninja.

"They are your assistants."

"Please, Lin."

"I'll do my best."

Nohara Rin touched her mask, turned to look at the abundant medical resources, and let out a long sigh.

Go for it, Rin Nohara!

At that moment, deep underground, Kaguya Naoki revealed a gentle smile.

"Lord Hizashi, it's been a long time!"

I've discovered I can insert pictures, so I'll share some beautiful images from now on. If people don't like them, I won't post them anymore.

I would also like to ask for everyone's opinions.

Kirigakure is going to establish something that's like a combination of Root and Akatsuki. It's hard to understand, but that's roughly it. I wonder if any of you experts have any good names for it?
