Well, I published this story in Portuguese so I thought google translator could help me switch to another language, I don't really post my stories here, Spirit and Wattpad is my home
sorry if there are wrong words, really what i know of english is very little
It had been a while... he thought, starting to walk through the ruins that used to be Konoha, everything was destroyed, houses, buildings, shops... there were some places on fire still, it's not that he didn't miss that place, but none of that mattered now the other villages were in the same state, or maybe worse.. he doesn't know, wouldn't waste his time going to the other villages to find out, he has a goal here, looking around he feels he hasn't arrived yet, that's good …. he knows he is alone.
Activating the Karma mark that extends from half of his face to his left hand, he raises his arm in front of him opening a purple portal, he takes a look around again stopping for a few seconds at the destroyed Hokage monument, actually at the last face and enter.
The heat of the sun crossed his face along with a gentle breeze, he closed his eyes to enjoy that moment again, it's calming.. a feeling of peace, the sun is still up so it's not too late yet, opening his eyes he looks around it is a wheat field, quite vast in fact, he always thought it was nice to live in the countryside, the softness and simplicity that the place had in itself was... captivating, and the landscape too, the yellow and orange colors would always be gifts, giving color to the place.
Looking into the distance he began to walk among the wheat that swayed in all directions, it took a while for him to see a house, it was simple, made entirely of wood, the wheat field surrounded it and there was a well on the side, reaching the In front of him he climbed the two porch steps, there was an old chair in the corner, the two windows were closed, placing his stick against the wall he pushed his hair away from his face as he hesitantly shook his hand to knock on the door
No one answered
Trying again and receiving no response he unlocks the door and enters, in the living room there was a green sofa along with a small wooden table that had several books on top, in the corner a melted candle, noting that there was no one he goes towards the kitchen , as I said, it wasn't very big, a table with two seats in the middle, a stove in the corner along with a countertop, and the refrigerator on the other side, the noise of the power generator still made him angry, he internally schedules to fix it later if he can, looking around the rest of the house, which would be the bathroom and the bedroom and not seeing anyone, he starts to get worried and tense, will it be... could they have found him?
No... it's not possible, he chose this place well, so they'd never find him, he spun his feet and walked out the back door into the kitchen, running out he started looking in all directions, the wheat was high making it impossible for him to see everything, his breathing grew louder as he wandered through the plantation looking for
-Kawaki?...
He froze for a moment before turning quickly, standing a few yards from him was a man, bits of wheat were tangled up in his blond hair, his blue eyes were sleepy as he rubbed one of his cheeks, he was wearing a white shirt with black pants. and boots of the same color
-Na...dai...Naruto... _ The blonde raised one of his eyebrows, before softening his face and smiling
-You know… I told you, I wouldn't be bothered if you called me dad _ he replied, approaching and placing his hand on the brunette's shoulder _ after all you are my son _ he smiled again as he pulled Kawaki into the house, he was always quiet not knowing how to answer
-Sorry for not answering you, I ended up sleeping in the plantation _ Naruto explained scratching his head, he nodded and the two entered the house, Kawaki sat while Naruto prepared some tea, while the water was boiling the blonde put some herbs and sat in the other chair
-Are you taking your meds? _ Kawaki asked seriously, the blonde snorted
-Yes, of course, although they leave me with a headache sometimes _ he commented _ you know, I walked around, to the north there are some fruit trees, I thought about creating a small camp there and maybe exploring that region -
-I'd rather you stay here _Kawaki interrupted him _ if you go far I won't find you easily _Naruto frowned and narrowed his eyes
-You have to stop it, you know! like I know what's best for me, I have-
-I'm doing this to protect you,' he stated with conviction
-That's not... _ the blonde sighed _ you always say you brought me here to protect me, but... every time I ask why it's always destroyed or that the place we used to live doesn't exist anymore, I don't understand this thing about ninjas, gods, Karma, you never explain it to me! and the other Kawaki people?! _contested _ they don't matter?! _ his breathing was audible, the tea in the pot made a noise, Naruto took it from the fire and put it in two cups on the table, the brunette took one of them and blew to cool it down.
-Nobody can protect everyone… _ he whispered, looking away
-If you don't try, you'll never know .. _ finished smiling, gray eyes returned to blue
-I'm not a hero _ he said _ what I had to save is already saved, the world has no more salvation...
There was an uncomfortable silence in the air
-You know... I like this place... _Naruto commented _ it's beautiful I think...but there's one thing I hate here _ he put the tea back on the table
-It's lonely… there's no one here, just me… it's suffocating, sometimes I think I'm going crazy _his eyes looked tired _ the silence…. it's like my heart was going to explode _ he continued looking at the tea while Kawaki held his breath looking at the downcast blond
-I..
-But I keep going... because I know you'll come back... because I won't let you be alone, because you're my son and I love you, it may not be blood, but it's soul and that's what matters... _ he ended up looking back at his son with a smile, Kawaki was wide-eyed, his heart was pounding, he hated and at the same time loved this feeling.
it was weird...
but also very good...
the feeling of being loved...
and he would fight everything to keep it going
Naruto was suddenly hugged by Kawaki, but he reciprocated.
-You were the first one who saw me, the first one who gave me affection and love without wanting anything back… he whispered
-I couldn't live in a world without you dad...
They continued to hug for some time until Kawaki got up
-I need to go..
-Already? _ Naruto asked confused
-Yes... I have to resolve some pending issues, but I'll be back
-I know _ he smiled
Kawaki started walking to the field while Naruto stood at the door watching, he continued walking until he almost didn't see the house, activating Karma he opened a purple portal again, giving a last breath he entered.
It was another feeling whenever he came back from there, it was like feeling the despair of this place, the death
The end..
This left him impregnated with disgust, looking around again the presence of another person could be felt, he started walking towards where he knew the other was

-Boruto...
-Kawaki...
Their names were called out like a whisper in the wind, Boruto was looking at the Hokage monument, to be exact, what was left of the Seventh's head, Kawaki was a few meters behind
-Where's my father? he asked, still looking at the monument, the question took a while to be answered
-Dead..
Boruto appears in front of him quickly attacking him with his sword, which is defended by Kawaki's staff, he forces the blonde back who falls in a leap.
-Why would you kill him? _ he asks _ why would you do that?
-One less problem _ he muttered looking at Boruto with empty eyes _ it's the end of everything now... of the chakra, of the ninjas... _he ran towards the blonde and the two started to fight, the noise of the scraping metal was the only thing heard , they climbed into the seventh's face using chakra to stand, each on one side, launching one last attack before backing away again.
-The era of the shinobi is over.. _ Boruto pronounced, kneeling with his sword stuck in the ground, the silence was followed again before he continued
-You went too far… Kawaki!
-I'll send him to the same place I sent the Seventh, Boruto...
''Is it to death?" _Boruto thought staring at him
-There is no other way than this, is there? _ asked sighing
-That's right... _ he looked at his hand where the Karma was already activated
-The era of shinobi...is over
Boruto reached into his pocket, pulling out a ninja bandana.
-Even if that's the case... _he muttered, tying it to his forehead, activating Karma and Jougan afterwards
-I'm still a shinobi!
Kawaki narrowed his eyes and launched himself at Boruto, who did the same.
''Not for long...''
