After finally a good night of sleep, Kayle woke up refreshed, he had been awake for more than 60 hours straight, staying awake this long made him suffer both physical exhaustion and mental exhaustion, but the second was a lot more taxing for him as he rarely was this mental exhausted during his whole life.
As he woke up, he found himself in his personal house that he created inside of the forest of darkness, this pocket dimension was so convenient and easy to access that he quickly taught of creating a house there.
Kayle made the choice to create his house separated from the Uchiha clan, he wanted to have his private space and enjoyed the calm that was around here.
As Kayle then spent the whole morning inside the pocket dimension catching up with Shinji, the night of the massacre, Shinji was given the choice as to whether stay inside the village or go into the forest of darkness and without any hesitation, Shinji made the choice to accompany his adoptive family rather than living without them inside of Konoha.
After having a nutritious breakfast, Kayle said his goodbyes and left the pocket dimension resuming his traveling.
Kayle: "Let's go quickly, we should make sure to not be late"
Maru: "We have to go to the land of waves don't we?"
Kayle: "Yes exactly! we have things to do there"
They both started running once more and after a few hours traveling they found themselves into a port, this time they weren't lucky enough to find a merchant ship that was looking for an escort, and as they didn't have much time left they could only buy their tickets to the land of waves like everybody else.
The cruise went flawlessly without any mishap, no bandits, no fight, no beasts.
Kayle could relax on top of the deck, enjoying the cool breeze while fishing.
Kayle: "Hey Maru? why do I have a red hat, a wooden spoon, and a scroll full of fish ?"
Maru: "The wooden spoon is a gift for your parents...."
Kayle: "..."
Maru: "The red hat was a gift for Gaï, at first you wanted to buy a green one but for some reason, you started yelling there will be no green hats on this novel"
Kayle: "...What? I said what ?"
Maru: "I don't know you had already started losing your mind for a while then...."
Kayle: "..."
Maru: "And the fish is mine, you genuinely wanted to buy me the fish without me whispering in your ears to do that"
Veins started popping on Kayle's forehead.
Kayle: "Oh did I ?...you want a beating don't you"
Maru: "Buddha said The past is already gone, the future is not yet here. There's only one moment for you to live, and that is the present moment so give each of us a fish so we can enjoy the present"
Kayle: "..."
Kayle: "Buddha also said Anger is the punishment we give ourselves for someone else's mistake. Let me hit you a couple of times so I won't be angry anymore I don't think I deserve any punishments"
After arguing for the whole cruise, Kayle ended satisfied by eating every last fish he had on him without sharing anything with Maru.

Meanwhile, at Kirigakure, Terumi Mei was looking at the receipt she had in front of her...
Terumi Mei: "You are saying t-that he didn't even pay for his stay inside the Inn ?"
Innkeeper: "When we went to collect the payment, you were the one who sent us off, saying to not bother the two of you..."
Terumi Mei: "KAYLE!!! DAMN YOUUU!!! you better not let me meet you again"
