Chapter 278 I Am Very Happy
"Wow, so cool!" The little boy looked at her intently, "Do you have any partners or friends?"
Hearing this question, Matsuri could not help but reveal a wry smile. She looked around at the ruins, and then at the carefree children.
"Partners and friends, well..." She pondered for a moment, and then said: "Partners usually refer to people who fight alongside you on missions or battlefields, while friends are more of a person who can be a part of your life. Someone who sticks with you through hard times.”
A little girl frowned and said, "So, can partners and friends be the same person?"
Matsuri smiled and nodded: "Of course, if you are lucky, your partner is your best friend. But not every partner can be your friend, and not every friend can be your partner. ."
On the other side, Kearns, who was observing all this in the void, nodded slightly.
He is Naruto's teacher and the importance of deep friendship and partnership in the ninja world.
He had been observing Naruto and his friends in the void, waiting for the time to take action.
Seeing Matsuri's answer to the children, he felt that this young ninja had indeed learned a lot.
The children seemed satisfied with Matsuri's answer and nodded to express their understanding.
The little boy's eyes suddenly lit up and he said, "Sister, are you willing to be our friend?"
Matsuri was amused by this question. She knelt down and looked at the children with a smile: "Of course, I am very happy to be your friend."
The children cheered and ran back to the ruins to continue their games. Matsuri stood there, looking at their figures playing, and the depression in his heart gradually disappeared.
Kearns in the void watched all this quietly, and then slowly disappeared into the void.
The sun has completely set, leaving only a faint afterglow in the sky. Matsuri slowly stood up and walked towards Sunagakure.
"Friends and partners, these two are sometimes so blurry, but yet so important." She thought silently in her heart.
Walking on the way home, Matsuri felt as if he had found something important, and his mood became extremely calm. At this moment, she understood that the meaning and value of life can be found even in the ruins. These children taught her an important lesson about finding friendship and companionship even in the most difficult circumstances.
Matsuri quickened her pace, filled with anticipation and hope, looking forward to returning to Sunagakure, looking forward to meeting her partners and friends again.
On the other side, in a dense forest not far from Konoha Village, Ya stood on a huge stone with a frown on his face. He clenched his fists and looked into the distance in the direction of Konoha Village, feeling filled with reluctance.
I can't just fall behind them, especially Naruto... He gritted his teeth.
Suddenly, a flash of light appeared in front of him, and then a figure formed. Kakashi showed up, looking a little busy but trying to show a (good) relaxed attitude.
I heard you're looking for me? What's the matter, Takumi?
Ya hesitated for a moment, and then said: I want to be stronger, I want to shorten the gap with Naruto. So, I need your help.
Kakashi smiled and touched his hair: You are always so serious. But I have something to deal with now, so I'm afraid I can't teach you in person.
Ya frowned, a little disappointed, but couldn't help but ask: Do you have any other options?
