The Senju remnants of the Uchiha clan

Chapter 55: Seal and Farewell (Big Brothers, please vote and read on~~)
Under Scorpion's control, the puppet-formed centipede tore its own chest apart, revealing the life core inside.

"It's this thing. If you stab it with a knife, he will die completely. Even the dragon vein can't save him."

Minato looked at Sasori with a puzzled expression. He obviously didn't understand why this proud number one puppeteer in the ninja world was suddenly willing to cooperate.

"Hurry up, I know you don't trust me, so let you do it yourselves." Scorpion controlled the centipede while moving around and collecting the remains of the puppets. He picked up a broken stinger of Fei Liuhu and sighed softly.

What is this thing called...

So they teleported me to the past just to dismantle my puppet?
Kisame also turned his head to look at Sarah: "Your Majesty, after Baizu is executed, please go and close the dragon vein so that those of us who do not belong to this era can return."

Shiratori, who had been observing silently from behind, had an illusion that Kisame was calling Sarah "Her Majesty the Queen" very smoothly and they were quite familiar with each other.

Logically speaking, they don't seem to have any intersection, right? What will the future be like...

As he was thinking, Shiratori felt a hostile gaze falling on him. When he turned around, he saw Sasuke with flaming eyes, gritting his teeth at him...

White Bird:?
Erzhuzi, what’s going on with you?
"Uchiha Shiratori..." Sasuke clenched his hands, eager to try, "I want to challenge you!"

Shiratori: ? ?

What? The Uchiha clan's ancestral mental illness has broken out?
"Sasuke, now is not the time to fight!" Kakashi scolded, then turned to Shiratori with an apologetic expression.

Shiratori: ???
Fight? What? Do I know him?

And how shameless! I am not even ten years old yet, and you are already sixteen or seventeen, right? A high school student taking orders from elementary school students? Ugh!

While Shiratori and Sasuke were still exchanging glances, Minato had already inserted the kunai into the core of the Centipede.

There was relief in Baizu's gradually dimming eyes.

Compared to being toyed with by a scorpion while alive, death might be a good choice.

Sarah looked at Baizu with a complicated look, then led everyone to the dragon vein.

Along the way, Shiratori ignored the enthusiastic Naruto and Sasuke who was looking for trouble, greeted Sakura who came over to say hello, then came to Kakashi and elbowed him with his arm.

Kakashi: "...something?"

Shiratori: "Hey, hey... your Chidori, have you improved in any way over the years? Can you teach me?"

Ever since Shiratori learned the Lightning Style Chidori, he found that something was wrong with this ninjutsu: the chakra didn't flow smoothly when forming the seals, the power wasn't strong enough, the stability wasn't high, etc...

After all, Kakashi was too young when he invented this jutsu, so it will probably undergo many major changes in the future.

Kakashi: "Well, of course, but can you really remember it? I mean... your memories should be sealed."

Shiratori's expression was obviously stunned.

Yes! How could I have forgotten about this!

Looking at the somewhat dejected Shiratori, Kakashi suddenly thought of something: "Forget it, I'll tell you about this ninjutsu..."

Kakashi said a lot of things and Shiratori took notes carefully, not caring whether this memory could be preserved.

At the end, Kakashi changed the subject: "You should know what a tailed beast Jinchuriki is, right?"

"Ah? I know." Shiratori didn't know why the other party suddenly brought up this topic.

Kakashi took a deep breath and said, "The Nine-Tails is the most powerful of the tailed beasts. Even a Jinchūriki can hardly control it perfectly. Especially when a Jinchūriki is giving birth, the seal of the tailed beast will become extremely fragile. If someone does something wrong at this time... Do you understand?"

"Understand, right?" Shiratori knew what Kakashi wanted to remind him, but he could only choose to play dumb.

The Nine-Tails Rebellion... But what's the point of reminding him? Memories are always sealed. Is Kakashi sure that this memory will be remembered?

He didn't understand, but Kakashi seemed to have let go of some burden in his heart, and even his steps became lighter.

.........

"Here we are."

Feeling the tremendous power emanating from the dragon vein, Sarah walked towards the altar step by step.

Loulan prospered because of the dragon veins, but eventually fell into great disaster because of the dragon veins.

As Sarah closed her eyes and raised her hands with her fingers clasped together, after a moment, the boiling dragon veins gradually calmed down and entered a different kind of "hibernation".

There is only one last step left.

Minato walked forward and carved a complicated sealing spell on the ground. He took out the Flying Thunder God Kunai that was going to be the core of the spell, but his eyes swept through the future Team 7 of Konoha one by one. Especially when he looked at Naruto, his eyes paused...

Thousands of words finally turned into a relieved smile.

"I'm glad to be able to fight alongside you all. So... take care."

The kunai was inserted, and the dazzling light of the formation engulfed everyone. Looking at Kakashi who was gradually becoming illusory, Shiratori asked the last question: "Kakashi, does Naruto... know?"

Kakashi understood what Shiratori wanted to say, "You probably didn't realize it... Wait, why do you know that?"

The person who is least likely to guess the relationship between Minato-sensei and Naruto is you, a little brat, right? !
Shiratori nodded, ignoring Kakashi's second half of the question - You're going to pay homage to Gude, so why should I explain this to you? Just guess it yourself!

He cleared his throat and shouted to Minato who had been staring at Naruto: "Teacher Minato, I heard that you created a ninjutsu called 'Rasengan' by yourself. Can you teach me?"

Naruto, who was saying goodbye to everyone heartlessly, suddenly froze.

If there was anything that Shiratori was dissatisfied with about this mission, it was that because of his own butterfly effect, Naruto and Minato did not fight side by side from beginning to end, and thus missed the most touching scene of the father and son recognizing each other.

But, even though the ending was bound to be regrettable, he also wanted to make up for it.

"Ra...Uzumaki? Who are you?"

Naruto rushed in front of Minato and wanted to say something, but his increasingly illusory figure made it impossible for his voice to be heard.

The two seemed to be separated by a rift called "time and space".

Minato reached out and touched Naruto's phantom head.

"You will definitely become an excellent ninja..."

Naruto had tears in his eyes and couldn't hear what Minato said at all, but he recognized Minato's last lip shape -

"……Naruto."

The light faded, and only Minato's team and Sarah were left here.

Even the white bird felt a little lost.

Minato suppressed his emotions and forced a smile: "Everyone, although it may be a bit offensive, I still want to say... this experience should not remain in our memories."

"So, please relax and let me use the sealing technique to erase the memory of this period, okay?"
