Actions Before Going to the Little Garden

The claim that he wanted to venture into the cosmic starry expanse was merely an excuse to cover up his journey to a new world.

After all, for people who could not leave their home planet, the concept of light-years across the cosmos and that of different worlds were not all that different to ninjas.

It could not be helped. No matter how miraculous ninja techniques were, they apparently had yet to develop to the point where they could explore the stars.

Let alone venture into the realm of true other worlds.

It was precisely because these two explanations were more or less the same to the people of the Ninja World

that Yuzhen answered Kakashi this way.

And after hearing those words, Kakashi lost any inclination to joke around with Uchiha Yuzhen.

He immediately lowered his gaze and said in a deep voice, "Yuzhen... are you really planning to explore the stars alone at a time like this?"

Thanks to Konoha Ninja Academy even teaching physics, Kakashi had at least some understanding of what the cosmic starry expanse meant.

It was a vast and boundless void measured in light-years!

It was precisely because he understood that concept that Uchiha Yuzhen's decision weighed heavily on him.

"It's not that I'm overly worried. With your strength, Yuzhen, I suppose you don't need me worrying like this."

"It's just that the Ninja World has only just begun to settle down. Could you wait a while before making this decision?"

At that, Uchiha Yuzhen rose to his feet and walked over to the office window.

He looked at Konoha's outskirts, where the city walls had been demolished due to the population surge caused by the integration of ninjas from the other four great ninja villages, while houses and roads were steadily being expanded.
