Bab 341: 341. Campfire Talks
The spinning blue spinning ball directly touched Alexander's face and an explosion occurred. It covered everyone in a cloud of smoke and dust. Alexander also instinctively punched the man in the guts.
The blonde man's body curved a little due to the impact and some blood coughed out of his mouth before he jumped back to cover up the two children.
*Cough* Alexander and the blonde man coughed at the same time.
"What the hell is wrong with this world? Everyone is attacking each other. I just saved that little child's life." Alexander came out of the smoke while complaining.
Minato Namikaze was shocked and shaken. A direct hit of Rasengan couldn't even scratch the man and yet he was injured with just a punch. Of course, he was intimated about what was happening around the world. He had received reports of a man going around and capturing tailed beasts. Sakumo was the only one who had seen him so he had also given the facial description of him to the village and Minato had seen the sketch.
"You are the man going around the world and capturing all the tailed beasts, what is there to say?" Minato spoke as if it was a fact.
*Sigh*
"Look at them, do they look like captured, enslaved? If nothing, they look happy and free. It was 'YOU' who had enslaved them as tools of war." Alexander grumbled and pointed at the tailed beasts behind him.
Minato looked at the tailed beasts and indeed they didn't look harmed or restrained.
Instead, they were hugging Isobu and laughing. Son Goku was patting Isobu's back to cheer him up. They all looked like real siblings.
Minato suddenly realized something. It was said that all the tailed beasts were siblings. But not many people believed and just considered them freaks of nature. But, looking at them now, maybe they weren't the freaks they took them for.
But, 23 years of brainwashing in Konoha wasn't that easy to undone. Even if the tailed beasts were fine, this still meant the man would come to Konoha someday.
And the Konoha's Jinchuriki was his beloved Kushina. This makes everything personal. But he needed to retreat now. Rasengan couldn't do anything to him and he wasn't sure of defeating him now, even less so when he had no idea how deep his injury was.
He quickly grabbed Kakashi and Rin and teleported far away.
*Sigh*
"I will have to do something fast, their mentality is their own enemy." Alexander sighed.
...
A distance away from where all this was happening, a boy who was thought to be dead stood with happiness on his face.
His mind had nearly given up when he saw Kakashi try to kill Rin. But then he saw the strange old man appearing and taking out the three-tails from inside Rin.
He didn't know everything but understood that Rin was a Jinchuriki and something else must have happened.
He decided to make his presence known and jump towards them. But then suddenly, a black shadow appeared behind him and injected something into his body and he lost consciousness.
"Ah, Madara will be angry," The black shadow said and sank back into the ground with the boy's body.
...
Mount Myoboku,
Gamamaru, more commonly known as the Great Toad Sage, was the oldest and most respected toad of all the inhabitants of Mount Myōboku. He was famed for his highly accurate prophecies.
But most of the time he stayed asleep and rarely woke up as he was very old.
But today was a day he would wake up and make a prophecy. Fukasaku was summoned to hear the prophecy.
Gamamaru's eyes opened slightly and he started to speak. "A dazzling old man, Grandpa of the tailed beast will come here and bestow upon us great knowledge about Chakra.
"With him will come a beast, likes of which seen never before, who can destroy the world with a mere slap. A cat who can break the world into chaos. A bird who cries out fortune and a man of God who is lazy. Welcome them well.
All previous prophecies are invalid now. Now I sleep,"
*Zzzzzzzzz...*
Just as he woke up, he went back to sleep. Maybe his giant body couldn't sustain itself to stay awake for long.
Fukasaku on the other hand was confused and a bit worried. He was interested in the people Gamamaru talked about but at the same time wanted the prophecy to be wrong because if it was true then the people will be strong beyond imagination.
"Ah, I don't even know what is happening in the world outside. Maybe I should send Gamakichi out, or maybe just summon Jiraiya-chan and ask him." He thought and left the giant toad sleeping.
...
Alexander had made a camp on the same spot he saved the two kids. Normal people would be afraid of doing something like this but he wasn't. Even if he wasn't here and someone attacked. All the tailed beasts would be enough to defeat anyone.
Everyone around him was asleep. The tailed beasts didn't need to sleep but they had developed a habit of doing it after getting bored in isolation for so long. Currently, all of them were huddled together around Alexander. Each of them was snoring and making a different noise.
Hats and Barry were sleeping too. Berry had his claw kicking Hats and Hats' tail was brushing Berry's face. Both of them were making annoying noises every once in a while.
It was only Alexander, Bunpuku, and Douglas sitting by the campfire. The crickets were chirping around them, adding a different charm to the night. The world was also clean in terms of pollution so breathing felt very nice.
Douglas looked at him and asked. "Why do you think people are making so many wars? Not just here, the same mess is going on in heaven."
Bunpuku twitched a little, hearing stuff about heaven, but he stayed quiet. He had been told about Alexander and Douglas' status and had accepted it.
Alexander was heating a marshmallow. He replied, "I don't know, maybe it is the drive to get stronger, better. Or maybe it is just human nature.
"All the worlds we've been to until now, all of them had wars. But, just like there is the day after night. There is peace after war. It is a never-ending cycle.
"In each world, I just try to make sure that I can prolong that cycle for as long as I can before I leave because war is inevitable. Maybe in a hundred years, a thousand or maybe a million.
"But we must also remember that nobody likes war, because most people have more to lose from it than gain. Life, money, or something else. Just look at this current war. If Onoki had accepted Konoha's proposal for trade then there wouldn't have been a war.
"But, because of his own agenda, he has brought the whole world into a fiery pit. In all this, normal people live every day in fear, scared of what might happen tomorrow.
"They hope every day for someone to come and stop the war and help them out of their misery. And that is who we are, Douglas. We are 'Hope'.
"We are 'Hope' not just for this place but for heaven too. They hope that we will get stronger and beat that twisted man someday."
Bunpuku and Douglas nodded their heads at his words.
"Yeah, I guess you are right. Someone needs to stand up and give the people that hope. We can't expect everyone in the world to be like Bunpuku here now, can we? We must punish those that do wrong and help those who can be helped." Douglas agreed with his words.
"Bunpuku, why don't you go to sleep too? You have just started your training, you don't have monstrous bodies like us." Alexander advised the saint man.
"Why don't you sleep too, Sage? I don't think I've ever seen you sleeping in my few days of travel with you," Bunpuku asked.
"Hahaha, I have not slept in thousands of years, Bunpuku. My body doesn't need to sleep." Alexander told him.
Alexander didn't notice but Douglas had his eyes on him when he said that.
~Why is he lying about such a small thing?~ Douglas asked himself.
As an angel, maybe not as powerful as other big angels, he still had his divine status and that gave him the ability to feel things on a higher level and he just felt Alexander lying right now. Something he had never seen before.
But he didn't ask, everyone deserved their privacy. Soon, he also went to sleep as it had been a long time since he did that.
Now, only Alexander was left alone, looking at the starry sky silently and thinking who knows what.
