Naruto: I also want to be a proud man

That was a story more than a hundred years ago.

Kawa no Kuni, in the hot spring lake

A mutated tortoise was born in this hot spring lake, and because of its weird appearance, his clan abandoned it.

It is indeed different from its group, its growth rate is unbelievably fast, within a few years he has become the overlord of this lake.

In retaliation, it drove its former population out of the lake.

However, it has been the king of the hot spring lake for a few years, and one day it was caught by a passing human.

He could still remember the silly smile on the man's red armor and said to it

"You really resemble that guy with three tails. He was unhappy all the way to the country of water. If he brought you to him, he must be very happy."

Later, it was taken by that man and presented to a big guy.Even if it has grown to a size of several meters, compared with that big guy, it is like a newborn baby.

Along the way, it became friends with the big guy, and also learned the big guy's name.

Together they were sent to an extremely huge lake. In that lake they had a new friend, a small fish.

Isota takes good care of them, letting them stick under his belly so that other fishes will not be hurt.

Whenever Isata finished hunting, he would share the excess chakra between the two of them.The three of them spend a long time together and have fun together.

The taste of chakra intoxicated the two of them, and under the nourishment of Isota's chakra, the two of them became stronger and stronger.

Its unusual growth speed was accelerated several times under the feeding of Isota's chakra.The growth rate was far faster than that of the other small fish, and within a few years, it became a huge existence second only to Isota in that water area.

The expansion of his body made him want to go out and see the outside world. More importantly, as he grew up, whenever he absorbed the extra chakra from Isola, there was always an uncontrollable greed in his heart.

He is afraid that his greed will hurt his friend one day, so he has been trying to leave this place on the grounds of seeing the outside world.

But Ji Zhen always tried to persuade him to stay. Ji Zhen told him, "The outside world is very dangerous. Even I was sent here easily, wasn't it?"

In this way, a few years passed after struggling and tormenting. On this day, things finally changed. A narrow-eyed human came to the lake with a large number of men.

They said that their shadows and the shadows of Rock Hidden Village died together, and to protect the village, they must master the power of the Tailed Beast.

They first lured the little fish, caught the little fish ashore, and used secret techniques to make the little fish into a big knife, which was named shark muscle.

When people came to the lake with the seven knives including shark muscles, Isato saw the appearance of his companions, and the angry Isato rushed out of the lake to get his companions back.

Isata and humans launched a protracted battle, hiding under the water, watching the huge amount of chakra that erupted when Isato and humans fought.Greed and hesitation appeared alternately in his eyes.

There are still too many humans, and the leader, Squint Eyes, is extremely powerful.

Even though Isato broke out with all his strength, he couldn't kill all the humans, and the wounds on his body continued to increase. At the critical moment, that squinting eye made a sneak attack, and against Isato's tail, he dug out Isato with one blow. of one eye.

The pained Isoto yelled, setting off waves of turbulence, and Isoto lowered his head to the bottom of the lake for help, hoping that another friend of his would come out to help him.

However, Isato's hope finally came to naught. Isato's companion hiding underwater looked at the eyeball that fell into the water. His eyes were completely attracted by the eyeball exuding strong chakra, and the greed in his heart could no longer be restrained.

Isao's companion rushed out from the bottom of the lake at a very high speed, swallowed the eyeball in one gulp, and then continued to castrate away. figure.

Isata's angry and sad whining was left behind by it, and it was completely swallowed up by greed at the moment, and it couldn't remember the friendship it once had. He just wanted to find freedom with the power that made it intoxicated.

The despicable it left his best friend and fled to the boundless sea.

But the best friend who lost his eyes repelled all the humans angrily with serious injuries, and sank to the bottom of the lake with his seriously injured body, facing an unknown fate.

The despicable it fled to the sea, relying on the power of that eyeball, it became stronger step by step, and became the overlord of the sea, a huge water monster that trembled in people's mouths.

However, the heart of the water monster is forever experiencing the torment of being a betrayer. Although it has gained a lot of power, when the obsession with power subsides, there is only endless regret and suffering left in its heart.

Whenever he hears from fishermen or so-called ninjas from the passing boats that the newly appointed Mizukage in the village of Kirigakure can perfectly control the power of the tailed beast, it will rush out of the water and swallow the boat in its stomach. .

But even if he did this, the pain and suffering in his heart still couldn't calm down even a little bit.

The water monster can only use time to soothe the pain in the heart of the despicable, and the despicable one will seal the memory of the past in the depths of the memory.

Until the time was running out, he still didn't dare to go back to that lake and face his best friend from the past, because it felt that such a betrayal could never be erased.

In the end he chose to leave the sea, return to a small hot spring lake, return to the place where he was born, and end its despicable and cowardly life.

"crash"

Jun Ma Lu poked his head out of the hot spring lake, greedily breathed in the fresh air, and it took him a long time to swim ashore.

First, he used medical ninjutsu to touch one side of his body, then took out a scroll, took out a lot of disinfection tools, and carefully treated all the wounds on his body.

After finishing the work, he searched around, and finally found Kakashi who was fainted in the grass, and reached out his hand to explore Kakashi's nose.

Fortunately, when the water monster's tail was pulled over, it was very aggressive, but because of Lei Qie's effect, its body was paralyzed for a moment.The strength of the tail that was shot was more than half lighter.Kakashi did not die directly.

I felt that even though I was extremely angry, I still had some breath left. Taking a deep breath, the green fluorescent light in his hand lit up, and the Palm Senjutsu was fully activated to help Kakashi recover.

After a while, Kakashi woke up faintly, looked at Kimimaro in front of him and said in a daze, "Are you not dead yet? Or have we already met in heaven?"

Junmaro twitched the corners of his mouth, and Kakashi grinned with pain in the hand that performed the Palm Immortal Technique.

At this moment, Kakashi also came to his senses and asked tentatively, "How is the situation with the water monster?"

Kimimaro pointed to the hot spring lake not far away that had turned into a light red color, without saying anything else.

He helped Kakashi up and said, "Let's go. We have suffered so many injuries for this mission, so we have to be well entertained by the Daimyo of Kawanoguni. Let's recover for half a month before returning to Konoha."

Kimimaro, who was supporting Kakashi, walked a few steps and looked back at the light red lake under the setting sun. He murmured a few words and finally said nothing. He helped Kakashi and disappeared into the jungle.
