"This is not the place to talk, come with me."

Led by Natsume, Shikamaru and the three of them followed them to a hidden place in the forest, and also piggybacked on the unconscious Pleiades and Hokuto.

Natsume's hideout is located on the other side of Hell Valley, that is, in the Land of Fire, so the ninjas of the Star Ninja Village have not discovered Natsume for so many years.

Underneath several boulders is the stone chamber where Natsume hides, which has some simple living facilities, and in the middle is a large and striking sarcophagus.

Natsume manipulated Chakra to open the coffin board of the sarcophagus, and Shikamaru and the others vaguely saw a dried corpse inside.

Putting the meteorite stolen from the village into the coffin, Natsume closed the coffin again.

"This is my husband, the father of the Pleiades, who died a year ago."

The three of them folded their hands in front of the coffin, then placed Hokuto and Pleiades on the bed, and Natsume began to tell her story.

It turns out that ten years ago, Natsume and her husband Hotaru did not die fighting the ninjas of the enemy village, but wanted to steal the stars in the village.

In fact, the star cultivation in the village is a kind of cultivation that damages life span and damages the body, and Natsume and her husband Hotaru all died in the star cultivation one after another, leaving only the two of them to grow up.

So the two discussed stealing the stars in the village and ending the cultivation of this sin.

But in the process of escaping, the three generations of Star Shadow in the village caught up with them, and said that he also thought that the star cultivation in the village was inappropriate, and he would end the star cultivation during the term of his generation of Star Shadow.

So the couple decided to believe in the star shadow and returned it to the village.

However, in order to prevent someone from restarting the Star Cultivation in the future, the three generations of Star Shadow asked the two not to stay away from the Star Ninja Village, and they would always keep an eye on the development of the Star Ninja Village in the future.

Natsume and Hotaru agreed, and built a secret retreat on this side of Jigokudani.

It didn't take long for the three generations of Star Shadow to really stop cultivating the stars in the village.

But it's a pity that the good times didn't last long, three years ago, Xingying suddenly died, and Chixing took office to become the village chief and acting Xingying, and half a year ago, he overcame public opinion and restarted Xingying's cultivation.

In order to prevent the village children and his own son Pleiades from repeating the same mistakes, Natsume decided to steal the star.

This is all the cause and effect, and after hearing these things, the three of Shikamaru also felt a lot of emotion.

It turns out that borrowing stars to cultivate and gain great strength comes at the cost of damaging the body, and it seems that there is really no shortcut to cultivation.

However, at this time, Shikamaru remembered the damage to the second meteorite in the village, so he asked, "The second meteorite has landed in the Star Ninja Village, do you know about it?" ”

"Hmm." Natsume nodded, "Actually, I was the first to see the stars that night. ”

"That night, I suddenly saw one falling in the direction of Star Ninja Village, so I immediately chased after it with the Peacock Magic Method."

"At that time, the star also emitted light, the same as the first meteorite in the village, but the color of that light was very strange, and I can't describe it."

At this time, Shikamaru immediately rushed to answer and asked, "Is it the kind of luster that resembles a pink-purple color and flows slowly like a life?" ”

"That's right! It's that color! ”

Seeing that Shikamaru could describe this color, Ino and Akido Dingji were a little surprised, why did the three of them act together, only Shikamaru had seen this color.

But I don't know that Shikamaru is just a little more careful than most people.

That's right, just a billion points.

Natsume continued, "After that, I tried to touch these colors with my chakra, but these colors are more repulsive to my chakra, so I speculate that this star cannot be used for star cultivation. ”

"Then the people from the village came over, and I left."

Shikamaru nodded, the cause and effect were clear.

"In other words, the meteorites in the village were not destroyed by you?"

At this time, Ino also understood something and asked.

"Of course, my purpose is only to prevent the village from cultivating stars, and has the meteorite in the village been destroyed?"

"Don't you know about this? I thought you were stealing the meteorite because you saw the emptiness of the village's defenses. ”

"I did see a large number of ninjas coming out of the village before I made up my mind to steal the stars, but I don't know why."

The conversation between Natsume and Ino made Shikamaru think about something again, so he asked, "Is it true that you live in a position where you can monitor movements around the Star Ninja Village all the time?" ”

"Pretty much."

"Are there any ninjas from Cloud Hidden Village, or unidentified ninjas around Star Ninja Village these days?"

"As far as I know, no."

Natsume's answer sent Shikamaru into deep thought immediately.

Natsume, as a shinobi, has been monitoring the movements of the village in order to steal the first meteorite, so what she said is likely to be credible.

In other words, there are actually no ninjas from Yunyin Village or ninjas from other villages who have approached Star Ninja Village these days.

Akahoshi's speculation was wrong.

Judging from Natsume's reaction just now, she really didn't know about the destruction of the meteorite in the village, and she didn't need to lie now.

The second meteorite in the village was not destroyed by Natsume either.

It is also impossible for Akashi to direct and act out this scene of the destruction of the meteorite, because Akashi did indeed send a large number of ninjas outside the village to pursue the so-called ninjas of Yunyin Village.

Excluding all possible answers, the remaining answer, if no longer possible, can only be the truth.

Meteorites disappear on their own!

When I was eating tomatoes, I saw the strange light flowing in the tomato juice, which was exactly the color on the meteorite!

Also, on the first day when he saw the meteorite, Shikamaru saw that the meteorite was a little smaller than the diameter of the crater.

Are meteorites shrinking?

The conclusion of these strange phenomena after speculation made Shikamaru feel extremely frightened, and faintly, Shikamaru felt a shudder all over his body.

Meteorites disappeared?

No, it's not gone, and its bizarre color, which shouldn't exist in this world, may have been hidden and infiltrated in many places.

[Get 900 shiver points from Shikamaru in Nara!] 】

Shikamaru's eyes widened, and all kinds of bad reveries came to mind, but fortunately, Akido Dingji next to him found that Shikamaru's expression was not quite right, so he woke up Shikamaru.

"Shikamaru, Shikamaru? What happened to you? Your expression was so scary. ”

"Ah, well, I'm fine."

Shikamaru shook his head and didn't say anything about his troubles.

Because these terrible imaginations lack conclusive evidence, the final piece of the puzzle of the final answer is missing.

And at that moment, Natsume stood up.

"It's time to send them back."

Natsume caressed Ang's forehead, and the motherly love that had been missing for ten years in those eyes was overflowing.
