Mari saw that the chunin exams would not go on, so she casually asked Yakumo, who had always been very passive about the role of ninja, if he had ever considered giving up being a ninja.
After all, they have learned everything they can in Konoha Village. Since a year ago, their strength and skills have not improved. It is time to leave after Angel's problem is solved. It was originally planned to continue to have more close encounters with Jiraiya.
There is no need to implement the plan to obtain the "key" to the Nine-Tails Cage. A ninja's desire to resign as a ninja is nothing special in peacetime when military armaments are not tense.
"Could it be that you also want to change jobs?" Yakumo asked.
"Probably, I might consider leaving the village to live," Iglia said. At least they got to know each other. Yakumo also taught her genjutsu and said goodbye.
It shouldn't be as troublesome for these people who are orphans from other places to leave the village as it is for a ninja family. Iglia seemed to have forgotten that they had blood heirs that would not be surprising even if they were regarded as demons and annihilated.
But what Yakumo said surprised the fairy even more: "How about we leave together? I don't want to stay in a place like Konoha anymore."
"Eh?"

Because Sunagakure Village opposed the actions of the Biwa Master sent by Gaara as the Kazekage's faction, the Kyuubi was unsealed and caused a riot in the examination room, making the follow-up of the Chuunin Exams in vain.
For the time being, Konoha Village could only put aside the matter of holding Sunagakure Village accountable. After making Konoha's young masters chuunin based on their village's ninja performance in the examination, they hurriedly issued a mission to investigate the whereabouts of the Kyuubi.
Angel, who was at the center of the incident, was kept in the hospital for observation.
The Nuclear Ninja Class is fine for the time being, but due to Angel's sensitive identity, Class 9 is busy preparing to leave Konoha Village with as little trouble as possible. Because Crounpis forbids them from going home now, they have to
They are temporarily living in this world, and they don't want to be tied down in Konoha Village, nor do they want Konoha to cause trouble for them.
Uchiha Mansion——
"So, Elfin is planning to leave Konoha Village with Lia and Mary?" Yakumo, who was a guest, said to Elfin.
Alfin was silent for a few seconds.
She thought: "Calm down... I don't remember being so close to Yakumo that we would be together even if we were apart from each other. Although it's not that I don't understand."
Elfin knew Yakumo's knot. She always thought that Konoha Village wanted to harm her. If Danzo, the fifth Hokage, had not seen her power and could use it, she felt that she would have died long ago, because she felt that the Third Hokage had not
I really want to kill her because her parents died in a fire inexplicably——
A ninja who couldn't be killed even with a useless fire attack using chakra, died in an ordinary fire? Normal?
In order to help Yakumo get rid of the monster in his heart, Alfin used the [Human Way] to peek into Yakumo's soul, so he knew that the fire was actually a real illusion created by Yakumo to create a monster out of resentment towards himself for not being a ninja.
It was Yakumo himself who killed his parents. In order to make Yakumo feel better, and to prevent Yakumo from betraying himself to Konoha, Alfin never revealed the matter.
Yakumo, who suspected that Konoha was not good for her, had only had a few "friends" with whom she could communicate in the past two years, which is not surprising from the perspective of human grouping psychology.
But it's just not weird.
As ordinary friends, Alfin has no problem with interacting and helping each other. She is quite grateful to Yakumo for helping them cover up things more than two years ago. But it may be a little difficult to live together.
"Then, want to do a test?" Alfin said.
"What test?"
"It is true that I helped you kill the monster in your heart, but your dissatisfaction with Konoha Village has never disappeared, so she has not disappeared either. If you can't overcome this yourself..."
Before Elfin finished speaking, Yakumo immediately grabbed the oil painting knife and said, "It doesn't matter, I'll try."
In the past few years, although Yakumo has struggled in missions due to physical problems, her genjutsu has always been successful, which has made her more confident than when she was a few years old.
"I understand." Alfin snapped his fingers, "I'll let the monster in your heart come to see you. Of course, you must also face the lost memory, [Charm], [Tsukiyomi]."
The surrounding space suddenly turned into the starry sky world in one of Yakumo's paintings, with oil paintings painted by Yakumo to express all his dissatisfaction and resentment towards Konoha floating around.
There is only one painting exception, and that is Yakumo's self-portrait.
However, the people inside climbed out and turned into evil spirits!
"Who are you!" Yakumo was horrified by the devilish appearance.
"My name is Idu." Idu looked at Yakumo and said, "Speaking of which, this is the second time we have met, but since you first asked me to do something, you have never called me again.
"
A large number of fragments suddenly flooded into Yakumo's mind, and he couldn't help but hold his head tightly.
"I remembered, it was you who killed my parents!"
"What are you talking about? I am you, you are me, I just killed the people who hindered your growth. Speaking of which," Idu turned to Alfin, "this guy also killed me without permission in the name of a friend
Once, I took advantage of your naivety, and you must never let her live."
As soon as she finished speaking, a sharp claw appeared behind Elfin, and she fell into a pool of blood with a "pop".
Ido was a little surprised. She knew how Yakumo fought with Elfin when he went berserk. Shouldn't she use [Dougai] or [Izanagi] to offset the damage at this time? Can Ido be prepared to hit Alfin on his head?
A dozen Sharingan flowers are ready to be consumed.
Suddenly, Yakumo's oil painting knife stabbed into the back of Idu's head.
Idu felt incredible: "Why! I did it because of you!"
Ido is the dark side that grows in Yakumo's heart, so she can clearly see the negligible darkness in people's hearts, whether it is parents or teachers. Although it is not detrimental to Yakumo, they want to do it because they are afraid of Yakumo's power.
The heart that hinders Yakumo's growth is not completely non-existent. Even if he helps his growth, he just wants to use it.
Maybe love exists, but under the ninja system, it must be mixed with various factors based on interests and safety considerations.
So Ido killed those carriers that might be detrimental to Yakumo.
"Why do you want to kill me for her?" Idu asked.
"Because, she is my friend." After Yakumo said, Idu was split from head to toe, and the illusion space was shattered together.
Alfin, who had repaired his injury, sat up and felt proud: "Thanks to Yakumo for not being defensive about me, I easily used [Charm] to change the distance between Yakumo's feelings towards you and me, and he was even more cruel to you. Got it.
The true Yakumo shouldn't have any resentment towards Konoha, and he still wants to leave with us."
