Autumn is always a depressing season. The green leaves gradually turn to yellow and shiver in the cold wind. Who likes this season?

A few days ago, a group of ninjas set out towards Land of Rivers. Even longer ago, the clan leader of the Uchiha Clan also led the elites of the clan to Daimyo's Capital with great fanfare. For a moment, the originally noisy village became quiet again.

Because of the Uchiha Clan's departure, Police Force's manpower suddenly seemed a little short. For the safety of Konoha, at the request of Danzo, Root's ninjas also began to be active in the village, temporarily acting as a security force.

Everyone knew that the war that had just ended was about to start again. In this environment, the business of the "Italian Cannon" weapons store is getting more and more prosperous, and it feels like making a fortune in war.

Dai had mixed feelings for a while. When I was Genin, I had no money and no one, and I was laughed at by other Genin and Chunin all day long. But since he opened a store in the most prosperous area of Konoha, his former colleagues began to say hello to him, and it seemed that everyone had a good relationship with him.

The only regret is that my ninja career is probably coming to an end. It's a pity that I still couldn't become Chunin in the end.

But it doesn't matter. Let him wait until he has a son and let his son realize this dream. There's nothing that one son can't solve, or two if you have one.

Uchiha Chen naturally didn't know that Might Guy might have an extra brother for no reason, just like Kakashi might become Akali.

When he came into this world, so many things changed, everything became unrecognizable.

Some changes are good, and some changes are bad, but these all take time to verify.

While Tsunade was not at home, Uchiha Chen quietly ran to Mito's small yard and dug out the wine hidden under the big tree.

In the words of Mito, Hashirama left behind many things, but only these wines are the most precious. Even the village cannot compare with this!

Fortunately, although the number was small, only he and Kushina knew about it, otherwise they would have been wiped out by Tsunade.

After taking out a bottle of wine, Uchiha Chen buried it in the soil again, then walked slowly along the path to Cemetery alone, and stopped in a remote place.

Someone placed a fresh bouquet of flowers in front of the tombstone. It seemed that that person had been gone not long ago.

He sat on the ground, spread his legs, and carefully opened the mud seal on the bottle and the wax seal on the bottom. The rich aroma of the wine was released.

As the smell spread, a crow actually landed on Uchiha Chen's shoulder, its black eyes staring straight at the wine bottle.

Uchiha Chen shook his head in refusal. Don't give this bottle of wine to anyone, drink it yourself. After drinking this bottle of wine, it is equivalent to having a deep conversation with Mito.

So he ignored the crow, took a deep breath, and tasted the delicious food brewed during this time alone.

Old wine should be mixed with new wine, so as to bring out the mellowest flavor in the wine, but Uchiha Chen did not do this. He was worried that after diluting the bottle of wine, he would not be able to taste the original taste.

After taking a sip, he savored it carefully. He had never drank before, but now he understood why Mito liked this taste.

"Bang."

The crow fell to the grass and then swayed unsteadily. It seemed to be very fascinated by the smell of the wine. After smelling it too much, it became a little drunk and started to drink like crazy on the ground.

After yawning, Uchiha Chen slowly got up, put the wine bottle in his pocket, then hugged the drunken crow and headed toward the other grave Earth Flow.

In another extremely remote place, Uchiha Chen found Yura's tombstone. But there is still a familiar figure sitting here.

"Nawaki, Yura are you okay?"

"Yura said that I am very happy here and feel like I am at home. Everyone here is talented and they speak nicely, but they are a little lonely."

"Oh, I'm really sorry, Yura, I'm late."

Uchiha Chen placed a bouquet of chrysanthemums in front of the tombstone, then sat cross-legged next to Nawaki. He also casually placed the crow on the ground.

"Did you just come from grandma's place?" Nawaki sniffed his nose. He had only smelled this kind of wine from Mito.

"Yes, let's talk to her and report on Kushina's situation, and then I made a new friend."

Uchiha Chen pointed at the drunken crow on the ground.

Nawaki nodded and said, "I heard from my sister that you are leaving."

"Well, Hidden Sand Village sneak attacked Land of Fire, and a new round of war is about to break out. You Genin will continue to take turns, but Jonin must rush to the battlefield."

There is nothing that can be done about this. The village cannot allow the same batch of Genin to appear on the battlefield endlessly. In order to preserve the vitality, rotation is necessary. Of course Jonin also has rotation, but the time is much shorter than that of Genin. So no matter what this time, Uchiha Chen will say goodbye to Team One for the time being.

Nawaki's expression seemed to have a hint of loneliness. This expression gave him a rare hint of decadence.

"Hey, hey, it's not like I won't see you again. You can't wait a few months even if you don't want to go to the battlefield. Wouldn't it be better to rest for a while? Are you still worried about my strength?" Uchiha Chen patted Nawaki on the shoulder and said with a smile.

After a moment of silence, Nawaki suddenly raised his head and said, "I hate war."

You can hardly imagine that this is what Nawaki said. After all, a few months ago he was full of yearning for the battlefield, so suffering does make people grow.

In contrast, Uchiha Fugaku is still at a more advanced stage. This is the difference between not having experienced war, but Nawaki, who is younger, matures more quickly.

"Chen, can we really achieve the future you mentioned?" Nawaki is a little unsure, after all, this is something that even his grandfather could not achieve.

"Of course, the future is ours. As long as we think about it, there is nothing we can't do." Uchiha Chen said firmly.

Although Minato and Nawaki are not very confident, he understands the future and knows the general direction of the future better than anyone else.

Nawaki nodded, then lay down with his head on the ground and looked at the sky.

"Chen, when there is no war in the future, I will find a girl to marry."

"... Really? That's good." Uchiha Chen also lay on the ground, and then hugged the crow.

"... I've even thought of my own child's name."

"Oh..."

"What?!"

Uchiha Chen suddenly straightened up from the ground. The black crow standing on his legs was knocked away by the huge momentum. A few seconds later, a shrill scream came from the grass.

"Quack, quack, quack!"

"Yura, Senju Yura, that's the name." Nawaki whispered.

"...Yura, that's good. You want a girl." Uchiha Chen lay back again.

"Then you will marry my son."

"Huh?" This time Nawaki sat up.

"Shisui, Uchiha Shisui, my son. Why are you unwilling?"

"..."
