Chapter 4? Only Kakashi remains in Minato's team.
"crunch..."
With a crisp sound, the door that had just struck Ishikawa like a thunderbolt was casually opened by Nohara Rin.
In an instant, the desolate and chilling scene of the Third Shinobi World War appeared before Ishikawa's eyes...
"Phew... thankfully, nothing unexpected happened." Looking at the familiar village, Nohara Rin patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
If she can't open the door and get back, then she'll be in big trouble!
As Lin breathed a sigh of relief, Ishikawa behind her also had a gleam in his eyes and a burning gaze...
Just as he had thought, those two doors connected two eras.
In this way, wouldn't he be able to travel between two eras? And have access to more Naruto resources?!
call out……
Without hesitation, Ishikawa grabbed a handful of kunai and shot them out, piercing through the doorway and embedding them into the trunk of a tree on the opposite side.
"What are you doing??"
Lin's expression changed drastically, and she hurriedly left the spot, asking questions warily. But as soon as she turned around, she saw Ishikawa quickly open the door and run out.
[Was this guy trying to attack me just now??]
Nohara Rin hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and immediately followed, trying to grab Ishikawa.
But though she moved quickly, Ishikawa closed the door even faster. Instinctively, Nohara Rin reached for the doorknob, ready to open it and give chase!
Just as she was about to touch the doorknob, Lin suddenly remembered what Ishikawa had just experienced. In a flash, her chakra exploded beneath her feet, gripping the floor and steadying herself...
"Phew... thank goodness..."
Seeing that the doorknob was just a hair's breadth away, Lin breathed a heavy sigh of relief and was about to pull her hand away and step back.
But right in that gap!!
"Creak..." Ishikawa suddenly opened the door, and the doorknob just missed Rin's right hand in an instant.
"Crack..."
Unsurprisingly, a force similar to lightning instantly swept through her entire body, causing Lin's pupils to dilate and her to fall straight down...
"What's going on??" Ishikawa had just entered the door when he saw this scene, and subconsciously caught Nohara Rin looking at his own front door.
Are these two doors, the gateways to one's own era, only one can open them...?
Upon receiving this definitive information, Ishikawa was not surprised but rather delighted and breathed a sigh of relief!
If anyone can travel through time and space through this portal, then this portal might not be a good thing for him; it might even bring him death!
Ishikawa naturally understood the simple truths of "possessing a treasure is a crime" and "survival of the fittest."
Now that only he and Nohara Rin can open these two doors, it's kind of like having a cheat code...
However, before that.
After glancing at Nohara Rin, who had fallen into a coma, Ishikawa quickly placed her on the bed, quietly found a rusty kunai in the corner, and went out again.
Two minutes later.
"Ugh...uh..."
Suddenly, Nohara Rin, who had been unconscious on the bed, slowly woke up.
The moment she opened her eyes, she saw Ishikawa looking at her with a worried expression. The close proximity startled Rin. "W-what are you going to do??"
“Miss Rin, I think we need to talk…” Looking at Rin Nohara, who was startled like a rabbit, Ishikawa didn’t mind his solemn expression.
"Let's talk?" Looking at Ishikawa's serious face, Nohara Rin's heart skipped a beat, and she had a vague sense of unease.
He quickly got up, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief upon realizing that his body was uninjured...
It seems that Ishikawa has no intention of harming her! If he really wanted to attack her, he wouldn't have let go of that perfect opportunity after she fainted.
“Miss Lin, although I don’t know why our room has been strangely merged across time and space, the current situation is that the eras we are in have been connected.”
"On your side, it's Konoha Year 45, 14 years ago. On my side, it's Konoha Year 59, 14 years later."
"Furthermore, each of us can only open our own portals. To enter another era through these portals, we must cooperate with each other!"
"But now, we might be in big trouble..."
"Big trouble??" Nohara Rin asked nervously, her brows furrowed, after hearing Ishikawa's clear and logical analysis.
Seeing this, Ishikawa didn't say anything more, turned around and opened the door, gesturing for Nohara Rin to come with him.
"Let's go to the future!" Looking at the open portal, Nohara Rin took a deep breath and suppressed her excited heart as she followed.
With a single step, it was as if she were passing through an ordinary gate! Under the tense watchful eyes of the two, Nohara Rin smoothly passed through the gate and arrived in Konoha year 59.
[Thankfully, we passed safely.] Looking at Nohara Rin, who was equally excited, Ishikawa couldn't help but feel secretly pleased.
Although I had previously used kunai to pass through that portal, this was the first time I had actually verified live teleportation.
"This is Konoha 14 years later!" At the same time, Rin Nohara, her heart pounding with excitement, looked around and stared wide-eyed at the blurry Fourth Hokage Rock under the night sky.
However, because of the distance and the fact that it was night, she could not see the true appearance of the stone statue.
"Don't get excited. I brought you here mainly to see that!" Ishikawa immediately interrupted, pointing to the big tree opposite.
He didn't want anyone to see Nohara Rin here, which could cause unnecessary trouble...
"That's it!!" With the help of the faint moonlight, Nohara Rin looked over and her expression changed slightly.
On the tree trunk opposite the house, a kunai was firmly nailed into the trunk.
Under the moonlight, the faint rust spots on the kunai's handle were visible! Those were the marks of time…
"Let's go, we'll talk about it when we get back." Seeing Nohara Rin's slightly open mouth in surprise and uncertainty, Ishikawa's eyes flashed with a barely perceptible smile as he led her home and closed the door.
"That kunai, the one you threw out earlier? Were you trying to prove whether our two eras influenced each other?" As soon as the door closed, Rin looked at Ishikawa nervously and opened her mouth to ask.
"As expected of Miss Lin, she gets it right away..." Ishikawa gave her an admiring look, then his gaze turned serious. "That's why I said, we're in big trouble!"
"Just like that kunai from before, although we met here for unknown reasons, these two eras are still in the same current of time."
"Simply put, you are upstream in the river of time, while I am downstream. Therefore, any impact you have in the upstream era will manifest in my downstream timeline!"
"We don't yet know whether this spacetime link is temporary or permanent, or whether it's a regular, phased phenomenon or something else..."
"If others find out and it causes a chain reaction, it might wipe me or even the entire Hidden Leaf Village out!"
"So I hope we keep this secret from each other. At least, until those tragedies are completely changed."
“Those tragedies?” Nohara Rin murmured, her gaze towards Ishikawa filled with doubt.
Ishikawa sighed, his gaze wistful. "In that team photo of yours, only Kakashi-sensei is left now..."
"What?!"
Upon hearing such devastating news, Nohara Rin finally broke down in shock, her eyes filled with tears.
In the future, not only her, but also Minato and Obito...
"Tell me, how did Obito, Minato, and I sacrifice ourselves?" After a short while, Nohara Rin calmed herself down and asked through gritted teeth in a hoarse voice.
Intelligence—only by knowing the specific details of their sacrifice can the tragedy be averted…
She absolutely refused to allow Kakashi to be the last member of Minato's team!
Without them, how painful and agonizing would life be for Kakashi alone...
As Ishikawa said, those tragedies must be changed!
