Chapter 323

~5 min read 863 words

Tsunade and the others widened their eyes.

Leviathan is actually a race?

This really made people find it somewhat unbelievable.

This was still after experiencing so many anomalous objects;

this was the first time they had seen an anomalous object that was actually a race.

Then what did that sentence on the light screen mean?

Was the Leviathan treating the Ninja World of that world as its spawning chamber?

Or was it saying it was going to die in that world?

Inside Iwagakure,

looking at the content on the light screen, Onoki frowned slightly.

By now, he seemed to know

why the Foundation's records on this Leviathan

had so much data expunged and uncertainty.

It was very likely that even the Foundation had never seen the true form of the Leviathan,

or,

there shouldn't just be one Leviathan, and the everything of each Leviathan was different.

Now looking at the Leviathan with more than half its body hidden in the sea within the light screen,

Onoki's first conjecture was mostly confirmed,

and now, according to the content in the light screen,

Onoki roughly felt that his second conjecture was also correct.

Looking at the Leviathan with more than half its body still hidden in the sea in the sky,

the eyes of the Toad Sage were filled with worry.

Although it was said that this anomalous object had not appeared in Mount Myoboku,

it had after all appeared in the Ninja World of another world,

and such a powerful creature,

the Toad Sage also could not confirm whether this fellow would come to Mount Myoboku.

Moreover, such a powerful creature was actually a group;

this made the Toad Sage even more worried.

Just when the Toad Sage was very worried,

on the light screen in the sky,

a piece of data appeared before everyone.

"Appendix Document: Old Man of the Turbid Sea - Eden"

Looking at the data within the light screen,

Jiraiya frowned slightly.

What kind of thing was this again?

Looking at the appearance of the data in the light screen, it should be something similar to an experimental record,

but why, when the anomalous object had not yet been contained,

did the Foundation start playing experimental records?

Wasn't it usually only when an object was contained

that it would be played?

Just when Jiraiya felt confused,

an aged voice suddenly sounded on the light screen in the sky.

"I remember that warmth. That is the first thing I remember."

"The light was there too, a dying star emitting a soft orange glow."

"But that warmth... is hard to describe. It is not at all as cold as this place."

Listening to the voice within the light screen,

Naruto frowned slightly.

This voice did not sound like an experimental record;

it was more like an existence similar to a monologue,

or perhaps a memory.

But why would the Foundation play such a memory?

Did this thing have any necessary connection with this Leviathan?

Just when Naruto was confused,

the voice in the sky sounded once again.

"There were other existences like me there."

"We are large creatures, so we do not live in a place crowded with rocks; the nature system is just like that."

"Our home is not filled with stones, but with soft warmth, with the quiet light of a star that found its own place."

Listening to that aged voice within the light screen,

everyone's thoughts followed its narration to the place it spoke of.

Listening to the voice within the light screen,

Onoki frowned slightly.

According to what was said in the light screen, Leviathan is a race,

and when they die, they will find a planet and go to propagate their race;

does that mean,

that this aged voice now

is actually the self-narration of a Leviathan?

Listening to the voice within the light screen,

Jiraiya felt a deep sense of loneliness,

as if his former family had all left him,

and he lived alone in one place for thousands of years.

According to the data in the light screen and the narration of this Leviathan,

Onoki guessed

that the star this Leviathan spoke of was the so-called Eden,

which was their home.

At this time, the voice within the light screen was still continuing.

"I was once told that when we first arrived there, that star was still very young; an elder claimed to remember when it could still speak. I did not believe his ramblings."

"We spent a lot of time in our childhood, but could not rationally recall it."

"No companion could still remember this period of their lives, even though the caretakers told us it was very interesting."

"We chased star debris with a joy of forgetting to grow old, played in space with innocence; some companions spent a long time trying to reshape this purity."

Listening to the words spoken by the Leviathan within the light screen,

Tsunade and the others also recalled their own childhood.

At that time, everyone was so innocent, and they loved each other so much,

but as time passed,

everything changed.

At this time, within the light screen,

the aged voice was still continuing to narrate.
