Naruto: Blood Mist Escape

Chapter 16: Sad News and Consolation

"Kid, the enemy is the ninja from Konoha Village in the Land of Fire. Just remember this."

Master Yuan patted Wuxin's shoulder, picked up the bulging envelope from the table and placed it in Wuxin's hand.

Wu Xin took the heavy envelope, tears welling up in his eyes, eyes filled with resentment, and asked in a trembling voice:

"You don't even know the name of the enemy who killed my parents?"

"No, child, it is meaningless even if you know the name."

Master Yuan had a sad look on his face, and a hint of helplessness.

"Master Yuanshi, please tell me the name of the enemy!"

Master Yuan looked at Wuxin who was asking questions, hesitated for a moment, sighed, and said quietly:

"That man is the legendary ninja, Konoha White Fang."

"Konoha White Fang!?"

When Wuxin heard the name of his enemy, anger flashed in his eyes, and the vague memories of his previous life gradually became clear.

Konoha's White Fang Hatake Sakumo, Hatake Kakashi's father, was a legendary figure in people's impression, but he walked into Wuxin's real life and killed Wuxin's parents.

Wuxin is now nine years old and is in the same class as Momochi Zabuza. Momochi Zabuza and Hatake Kakashi are of similar age. Logically speaking, Hatake Sakumo should have died from the rumors and slander in Konoha at this time.

Wuxin thought of what Master Yuanshi had just said. His parents and many Kirigakure ninjas died in the line of duty, but they ensured the progress of the mission.

There are even rumors that if you encounter Konoha White Fang, you can just give up the mission without being punished. However, this time, the Kirigakure ninjas met White Fang and did not give up the mission. Although there were heavy casualties, the mission was not a failure.

Thinking of Hatake Sakumo's death, Wuxin couldn't help but think:

"It is a very rare event that Konoha White Fang's mission was not completed. Could it be that this legendary ninja was slandered by rumors and committed suicide because of this mission?"

The master at the side saw Wuxin's eyes become dull after he muttered something when he heard the name of Konoha White Fang. His face became more kind and he touched Wuxin's little head.

"Child, the White Fang of Konoha is a powerful ninja. There is even an unwritten rule among all countries that if you meet the White Fang of Konoha, you can just give up the mission without being punished.

Wuxin, you are a rare genius in the village, even better than White Fang when he was young. I believe that you will grow up to be a better ninja than White Fang in the future.

So, child, don't be too sad, bury your hatred deep in your heart. When you grow up, you can take revenge today. "

"Yes..."

Wuxin, who was lost in thought, was brought back to reality by Master Yuan's words. After responding softly, his thoughts gradually became confused.

According to his vague memory, Hatake Sakumo was about to be persecuted to death at this time. Ninjas killed each other, hated each other, and survived for the mission. According to the traditional definition, the ninja group was equivalent to tools.

What's the point of tools hating each other? Does the hammer hate the axe and the axe hate the shield?

Wu Xin was in a daze and didn't know how he left the mission hall, returned to his home, and collapsed on the floor at the door.

Thinking back on recent events, he killed his best friend with his own hands, and all his classmates were killed, leaving only one murderer, Momochi Zabuza.

The temperament of the ninjas, which is unique to the Hidden Mist Village, is mostly cold and neurotic. Although his parents usually look cold and stern, Wuxin can feel that they hope that he can live longer in this cold village.

After experiencing the massacre at graduation, Wuxin could also understand the twisted love and expectations of his parents as ninjas. Now, the only remaining family affection has disappeared, and Wuxin has no ties in the village.

As for the guiding jonin and teammates of the ninja team, they are not familiar enough yet, and they all have the neuroticism and coldness unique to the Hidden Mist Village.

Wuxin even maliciously thought that if he died during the mission, the village would not even pay the pension. Because Wuxin had no relatives, no one would be sad because of his death.

"In this world, being able to survive for a long time is the meaning of life...

Strength is the basis for ensuring your long-term survival..."

Wuxin slowly cheered up. Free from worries, he understood his purpose, which was to live a long life in this village. At least, live long enough to grow up and have ample space for his body.

There is a huge difference in the power and chakra between a young ninja and an adult ninja.

I have not yet experienced the explosive growth of chakra for growth and development, and am still in the state of dormant dragon in the abyss...

Wuxin came to his senses and noticed the well-behaved and quiet ninja dog Wangcai lying at his feet. He reached out and touched the yellow dog at his feet.

"Wangcai, you are the only one left of my family..."

"Wang Wang!"

Since Wuxin returned to the courtyard, Wangcai has been following his master Wuxin, but his master ignored him. Wangcai sensed his master's mood and stayed beside Wuxin quietly and obediently until his distraught master came to his senses. Wangcai then howled twice in response.

"Hey, Wuxin, here's your commission."

On the courtyard wall, Wuxin's guiding ninja, Murayama Yuto, climbed over the wall and walked straight towards Wuxin with a stack of banknotes in his hand.

"Teacher Yuto? Thank you..."

Wuxin, who was in a bad state, did not pursue the teacher's mood for climbing over the wall to enter the hospital. He reached out and took the silver bills handed over by the senior ninja Murayama Yuto.

"Your reward for this mission is 20,000 taels, which will allow you to enjoy a hundred hot spring baths at Dongye Hot Springs. Now, don't be so listless."

Murayama Yuto, who is usually serious and lazy, rarely smiles.

"Not in the mood for a hot spring bath, Sensei."

Wuxin looked pale with tear marks on his face and rejected Murayama Yuto's invitation.

Murayama Yuto didn't care. He walked to the floor next to Wuxin, not minding the dirt, and sat down cross-legged, saying softly:

"Are you sad because your parents died in the line of duty?"

Wu Xin was somewhat surprised when he heard this, and asked doubtfully:

"Teacher, how did you know?"

Wuxin had the impression that this kind of mission should be highly confidential, and it was impossible to reveal the mission details, let alone the death of a ninja.

"Sensei is a jonin, he is well-informed. Besides, the village has released some information about this mission.

After all, being able to defeat Konoha White Fang is exciting news."

Murayama Yuto sat cross-legged with a warm look on his face.

"Ah? Maybe..."

Wu Xin had no interest in this so-called exciting news. His parents died in the mission. They were the ones who paid, and what they paid was their lives. But they inspired others.

"I understand how you feel, Wuxin. The life of a ninja is so unpredictable. Maybe today we'll finish chatting, and tomorrow, I'll die on a mission."

Murayama Hayato had a smile on his face and was very indifferent to matters of life and death.
