Negative Master of Konoha

Chapter 44 The price of growth

The ensuing battle did not cause any waves.

Katsunori Obana, who escaped Natsuki's decisive blow by performing family secrets, was not injured, but consumed a lot of chakra and stamina.

Facing Wu Yuanliang, whose strength was almost the same as his own in life, and after being reincarnated from the dirt of the scroll, he even possessed an immortal body. After only persisting for a few rounds, his skull was chopped off by Wu Yuanliang's axe.

Looking at Katsunori Obana who was completely dead, the tight string in Xia Shu's heart finally completely relaxed, lying on his back on the ground with some snowflakes, staring at the sky with dull eyes, panting heavily.

The side effects of Bamen Dunjia were manifested after he relaxed. The soreness in his body was faithfully transmitted to the brain bit by bit through the nerves, causing his body to convulse slightly. , fresh blood flowed out, under the rolled-up flesh faintly revealed fragmented ribs, under the blowing of cold air, dense cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Fortunately, the effective time of the reincarnation of the soil is 10 minutes. Xia Shu directed Takemoto Ryozo to bandage his wound, and then went to Obana Katsunori's body to collect the spoils. After the summoning time of Takemoto Ryozo was turned into ashes, he barely recovered. some mobility.

Staggering back to the previous resting place, seeing the tragic death of the two people, he couldn't bear to expose their corpses to the wilderness, so he dug a rectangular deep pit with earth, and buried Master Inoue's body.

Then, I went to the forest to find Ito Tomohiko's body, put him and Su Haizhen, who died tragically, into the large-capacity storage scroll that Hinata Nissei gave him, and prepared to take them back to Konoha, and the fallen leaves returned to their roots.

After doing all this, Xia Shu supported his body and returned to the village on the border of the Iron Country, just in time to meet a team of Konoha ninjas who were ready to return after completing the mission.

After explaining to them the circumstances of his encounter with the enemy, and asking them to escort him back to Konoha, he couldn't hold on any longer, his eyes darkened, and he passed out in a coma.

After an unknown amount of time, Xia Shu regained consciousness, opened his eyes in a daze, and found himself lying on a hospital bed.

Just when Xia Shu's brain was not too clear, the door of the ward was pushed open from the outside, and Kawada Yuki appeared at the door with a lunch box in his hand. Seeing that Xia Shu was awake, he walked to Xia Shu's side excitedly, He said with a smile: "Ahhh~ Xia Shujun, how long has it been since we met this time, do you miss me so much?",

Seeing his friend, Xia Shu was shocked, and finally woke up completely, but his body still felt very tired, and he was a little lazy and didn't want to move.

Kawata Yuki opened the lunch box, took out some exquisite meals, pretended to be dissatisfied and said: "But Xia Shu-kun, if you miss me in the future, just come to me directly, don't be like this time, with a wound all over your body. Come to see me, in order to treat you, I rested very late~"

"Thank you, Yuki." Looking at Kawada Yuki's bloodshot eyes and dark circles caused by lack of sleep, Xia Shu felt a little warmth in his heart, and then said in a very flat tone: "But I can ask A medical ninja coming back to heal me?"

"Ah, ah, Xia Shu-kun, are you still injured?" Kawata Yuki had an exaggerated smile on his face, pretending to be nonchalant, and slapped Xia Shu's shoulder fiercely with his right hand.

"Ahaha, Yuki, I was joking."

A burst of severe pain came, Xia Shu gritted his teeth to hold back the pain, immediately licked his face to beg for mercy, changed the subject and asked: "Yuki, I'm almost starving, did you make these food? It's so delicious, look Wake up and whet your appetite."

"I did it," Kawata Yuki gave Xia Shu a coquettish look, and said angrily, "But I don't want to let someone eat it now."

"Hey," Xia Shu didn't say anything more, and directly picked up the plate containing the food, picked up the spoon in the food box, and ate big mouthfuls.

Eating and eating, Xia Shu's movements slowly came to a head, his shoulders trembled slightly, and his voice was a little choked up: "Yuki, do you know? I met two very good teammates in this mission."

"Senior Su Hai is a very good person. He takes care of Zhiyan and me like an older brother. When encountering danger, he would rather give up his life and fight for the chance of escape for me."

"Although Zhiyan has always acted very cold, he is actually a cold-faced and warm-hearted guy. It's just that he is not good at expressing his emotions."

"I originally planned to go to Yile Ramen to celebrate after returning from this mission, but it turned out"

Xia Shu hugged his head in pain, and said with a sad expression: "In the end, they all died."

Kawada Yuki sighed, knowing that this was the first time Xia Shu saw his companion's death, it is not difficult to understand why he was a little dazed for a while.

Going to Xia Shu's bed and sitting down, holding him in his arms, Kawada Yuki's slightly sad voice rang in Xia Shu's ear.

"Xia Shu, do you know? You and Sada joined the team led by Mr. Nishizari at the end."

"The team at the beginning was me and my classmates, and they all died later. After that, Sada and Minako joined in, but it didn't take long for Minako to be killed by the enemy during the mission. In the end, it was you who joined us team."

"Xia Shu, I can understand your current mood, it must be the same as mine before, but I firmly believe that Xia Shu-kun will definitely come out of grief."

"Remember, as a mature ninja, you must always be prepared to face death, especially the death of your companions."

"The meaning of our existence, the meaning of our sacrifice, is to protect those people we value!"

Kawada Yuki, who comforted Xia Shu, saw Xia Shu's expression improved a lot, sighed quietly, packed up the lunch box and left, leaving a quiet environment for Xia Shu to adjust his mentality.

After a sleepless night, Xia Shu got out of the sadness, but his mood was still a little sad and depressed. Compared with before, his whole person seemed to have grown a lot overnight, but the price of this growth was so painful. .

After the staff of the Konoha Mission Office learned that Xia Shu was awake, they came to ask about the reason for the failure of the mission. Xia Shu fully explained the situation encountered, and then asked them to send the bodies of two teammates Give back to their families.

After the staff left, Xia Shu leaned on the bed in a daze, and suddenly remembered that he hadn't checked the specific content of the next stage of achievement, so he opened the system to check.

　PS: As the saying goes, it’s too late to arrive. The daily update may sometimes be a little late, but it will definitely arrive.
