Sasuke's angry roar made Naruto even more bewildered. But Naruto was still unwilling, nor rest assured. He didn't want Sasuke to face this difficult time alone.

"Sasuke, listen to me! I understand your feelings, and I..."

Not waiting for Naruto to finish talking, Sasuke suddenly stood up and punched Naruto on the cheek!

That punch was his best and also, too sudden!

As a result, Naruto was beaten out by Sasuke before he could react. He could only sit down on the ground while his left hand was covering the beaten cheek.

Sasuke walked up to him and pulled him up, "'Understand'?! How do you understand my feelings?! Your parents died long ago! And my family?! My family, until this morning, was still alive! But now?! Now they are all dead! All are dead! How do you understand me?! You tell me! How do you understand meeeee?!"

Sasuke pulled Naruto's sleeves, shaking and roaring ferociously. Emotionally triggered, Sasuke didn't even realize that he opened Three-Tomoe Sharingan, which has 2 more tomoe than the original work.

Naruto was even more bewitched by Sasuke. He did not feel angry because Sasuke said his parents had died long ago. Instead, he was awakened by Sasuke's words.

As for the scarlet Sharingan, Naruto felt sadder when he saw it. Until now, Sasuke had shown how much he desired to open his own Sharingan. But now that it is turned on... he didn't expect it to be turned on in this case.

If Sasuke can choose, Naruto can tell that he would rather never open this Sharingan than what happened today.

Ignoring the feeling of Sharingan, Naruto remembered what Sasuke said just now.

'Yes indeed... When I was born, I had no parents. I don't even know how it feels when a family lives together...'

But Sasuke?

Sasuke originally had a happy and happy family but lost everything overnight... how could he understand Sasuke's feelings? He really didn't deserve to say that. He really didn't have the qualification to understand Sasuke's feelings.

Naruto could only felt more guilty and even blamed himself when facing Sasuke. Guilty because he couldn't help Sasuke.

Blaming himself for not being able to stop this from happening.

Because of this, even if Sasuke had beaten him just now, he has no intention to refute or resist. If Sasuke would feel better after hitting him, he wouldn't mind. He was willing to bear it ... Naruto only hoped that Sasuke would feel better after venting his emotions.

Sasuke, blinded by hatred, resentment, and various hatreds, didn't understand Naruto's thoughts at all. He had no intention of stopping. Instead, he kept shouting, "SAY! HOW DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?!"

Naruto was beaten down again. He received two consecutive full blows from Sasuke. Naruto's cheeks were slightly red and swollen. But he stood up again and walked to Sasuke again.

Sasuke, with a greasy expression, was sober for a bit. But his emotions were still out of control. "Go! Go away! I don't want to see you!" Sasuke punched him again.

Naruto was beaten to the ground, stood up again, and walked slightly in front of Sasuke.

Drop!

Da!

Drop!

Da!

The sound of rain beating on the ground resounded all around. Sasuke punched Naruto over and over again, yet Naruto kept standing up again and again.

—The two were like this. In this heavy rain, they repeated the same action constantly.

"Why?! Why are you still here?! Are you looking for a joke?!" Sasuke panted, looking towards Naruto with an angry look. Then, he rushed over and hit Naruto hard.

Naruto, being blown away, stood up again. However, Naruto no longer had his original look. His cheeks were beaten by Sasuke, almost become swollen blue. The eyes were so swollen that only a thin slit of the field of view remains. There was also a faint trace of blood at the corner of the mouth. He did not answer Sasuke's question. —With his current injury, it was simply impossible to answer Sasuke's question. But he still tried to support his own body, barely maintaining a smile, and walked to Sasuke again. "Huf!"

"Huf!"

"Huf!"

"Huf!"

Sasuke breathing heavily, he clenched his teeth and rushing up toward Naruto again. But this time, Naruto didn't move even a step back because Sasuke's strength was not enough to make him fall back.

....

Sasuke was finally tired. He felt weak. All the feelings of resentment were vented by him in this heavy rain… Finally, the last tap was on Naruto's chest. It was just lightly crossed. Immediately afterward, the original gruesome appearance disappeared. Sasuke knelt weakly in front of Naruto. He crumbled and burst into tears.

"Wu wu wu~ why? Why is this happening? Mom... Dad... are still alive and well this morning. Why did they disappear suddenly? Everything is gone... Wū wū wū wū~ why? Naruto, tell me why?"

This was the first time Naruto had seen Sasuke so pitiful. In his perception, the victorious Sasuke had never given up in front of him. Seeing the appearance of Sasuke, Naruto also felt very uncomfortable. Because of this, Naruto realized how painful this incident truly was for Sasuke.

Naruto stiffened his wounds and endured the pain. He also knelt on the ground, embracing Sasuke in his arms. Sasuke could no longer hide his emotions and cried out completely.

He cried heartbreakingly, cried until his voice was hoarse.

...

Who knows how much time had passed?

The heavy rain gradually stopped. Only the moist smell after rain remained in the air.

After venting all emotions, Sasuke's tears were also dry. He pushed away Naruto, turned around, and returned to the position at the beginning. He sat on his knees without looking towards Naruto and said in a hoarse voice: "You go back first. I want to be alone."

Naruto did not refuse this time. He slowly left the courtyard. Sasuke was a little surprised. Why did Naruto go away so willingly this time? But it didn't matter that much.

After the entire courtyard was left with only a little 'tick' sound after the rain, Sasuke's thoughts once again fell into the scenes of various revolving lanterns. However, compared with the beginning, it is much less.

At least in his own eyes, he was no longer so sluggish...
