Naruto: Konoha Uzumaki Shirataki

Before he finished speaking, he noticed that Yahiko's eyes seemed to be shining brightly. Xiaonan thought to himself, and quickly stretched out his hand to grab Yahiko's arm, shouting anxiously, "Yahiko! What do you want to do?!"

As if he didn't notice the worry in Xiaonan's eyes at all, Yahiko laughed, raised his thumb and pointed at his chest, and said firmly, "Of course I will take that guy as my disciple!"

"Only someone who is so strong can be qualified to be my master!" When he said these two sentences, Yahiko's face was full of yearning, and his eyes were full of a sense that he would never achieve his goal. The look of giving up.

"Apprenticeship?" Unknowingly, Konan opened her jaw wide and looked at Yahiko blankly. For a moment, she didn't know what to say. She had talked so much about feelings before, and had profoundly explained the danger of that man, but Yahiko didn't even listen to a word? Is his focus only on the opponent's strength?

"Cocoa, that guy is an enemy. Will he accept you as his apprentice? I'm afraid he will kill us if we meet again." Seeing this situation, Xiaonan couldn't help but panicked. Even the tone of his voice seemed to be... Stumbling.

She originally wanted to get away from that man quickly, and even moved out of her residence to do so, but Yahiko wanted to take the initiative to get involved? There is no such way to seek death, right?

Perhaps it was Konan's timidity that made Yahiko a little irritated. He couldn't help but snorted and replied leisurely, "Konan, you said he is an enemy, then let me ask you."

"What are our identities now? Are we Amegakure ninjas?" Yahiko's two questions stunned Konan. She had no time to think and subconsciously answered, "Of course we are not Amegakure ninjas, we are civilians."

"Then it's over?" Spreading his hands, Yahiko sighed pretending to be helpless, and then said, "Whether he is a ninja from Konoha or a ninja from any ninja village, if he is really as strong as you It’s such a strong description.”

"I think a guy who can reach that level shouldn't take action against civilian children like us, right?" Yahiko seems to be reasonable, but Xiaonan obviously does not agree with the other person's point of view, just because, this is simply You're kidding with your own life!

"I don't agree! Yahiko, you are gambling with your life, do you know?!" Shang's face with a little baby fat was full of anger, and his beautiful pair of eyes were tightly knitted together. Xiaonan unconsciously clenched his fists, and his body He was also trembling slightly, obviously very angry.

Seeing that Xiaonan was really angry, Yahiko quickly suppressed the smile on his lips, and his thoughts were pulled back from the bright future, and he hurriedly persuaded, "Xiaonan, Xiaonan, I am doing this for your own good. Think about it. If war orphans like us don’t have the strength, who will look down on us?”

"Also, maybe a random ninja fight might kill us in the aftermath. It's not like you haven't seen this kind of thing before. Besides,"

Seeing Yahiko's expression of hesitation, Konan raised his eyebrows and asked coldly, "What else can you say?"

Taking a deep breath, Yahiko raised his head suddenly, his expression suddenly turned solemn, and his eyes were full of determination. The light shining in the eyes seems to be called faith.

Yahiko stretched out his hands and said loudly, "I want to change this country so that it will no longer be ravaged by war like it is now, and it will no longer cry endlessly like it is now!"

"For this, I need power, I must gain power, and I can only gain power! Otherwise I can't do anything! Xiaonan, this is my dream! Can you understand me?"

After saying the last sentence, the expression on Yahiko's face seemed very complicated for a moment. Among them, there was sadness, melancholy, and even a burning anger. And, a determination to change all that.

Yahiko and Konan were both war orphans, and his experience was similar to Konan's. Although Yahiko is slightly less miserable than Konan, everyone is essentially the same kind of person. Even if he is a little better, how can he be better?

At this moment, Konan can understand Yahiko's dream. Because of this, she fell into silence for a long time. Staring at the boy in front of him, at his determined face, his eyes shining brightly, and his lips tightly pursed under the influence of his unyielding will, Xiao Nan felt that he had nothing to say.

What to say? That your decision was just wishful thinking? That that man could never teach you anything and would only kill you? forget it.

Xiaonan knew that she had been convinced by Yahiko. After all, she had never had any opinions. Since Yahiko thought it was right to do so, then let's do it.

It's just a life. If it's for the dream of a companion, it doesn't seem unacceptable?

"Okay, Yahiko, since you must insist, I have only one request." Konan sighed as if she was resigned to her fate, and a wry smile appeared on her lips, but then, her eyes instantly became firm: "I want to be with you. go!"

Yahiko was stunned for a moment, then leaned forward and hugged Konan's shoulders fiercely. Then he didn't say anything and just kept hugging each other and laughed. Xiaonan didn't resist, and smiled slightly. She knew why Yahiko laughed, and she also knew why she laughed along with him.

If Yahiko's smile is pure, it is because his companions can follow his footsteps and understand his dreams. As for Xiao Nan, her smile was more of a wry smile, a self-deprecating wry smile, and even the corners of her smiling eyes had a few tears twinkling faintly.

Yahiko has something to say to them, who are war orphans. In this troubled world, their lives are as cheap as weeds. Without risking their lives, their fate is ultimately determined by other people's thoughts, and life and death depend entirely on God's will.

leave? Where can they go after leaving here? How can there be any pure land in this world? understand? Maybe.

It was almost evening, and in room 203 of the small town hotel, a knock on the door of "Dong, dong, dong!" rang.

"Who?" Shirataki was still sitting there cross-legged and didn't seem to want to get up and open the door. He had already known through his eyes that the people coming were Konan and Yahiko.

The people outside the door may have heard Shirataki's voice. Soon, a childish voice came through the crack in the door and faintly came into the house. "It's me. We are here to find you! Don't you have a question to ask my companion?" "

Suddenly, before Yahiko could formulate a reply, he suddenly found that the wooden door was already wide open. At the same time, a white-haired young man wearing a loose kimono suddenly appeared in front of him, looking down at him slightly.

"Hello, my name is Yahiko." He first put on a smile and nodded at Shirataki, then patted the shoulder of Konan who was a little embarrassed next to him, and introduced, "This is my companion, Konan."

After telling the identity of himself and others, Yahiko saw that there seemed to be no change on Shirataki's face, and he quickly said, "We." Perhaps he noticed the gaze that Shirataki was looking at, Konan's face was full of nervousness, and her little hands unconsciously grasped Yahiko's. Sleeves, the body shrank back again.

The fear of Shirataki buried deep in her heart made Xiaonan react involuntarily. Even though she had made a conscious decision and finally chose to follow Yahiko here, the psychological shadow would not disappear out of thin air.

After Shirataki introduced the two people into the room, he asked knowingly, "Yahiko, are you and Konan both civilians from the Land of Rain?"

Hearing Shirataki's question, he replied without hesitation, "Yes, we are all war orphans from the Land of Rain, and we can be considered civilians in this country."

"My parents were affected by the ninja battle and died a few years ago, and Konan." Looking sideways at Konan, a flash of pity flashed in Yahiko's eyes. He patted Konan on the shoulder and said honestly, " She has a history with you, sir."

Yahiko changed his title very quickly. Apart from being a little unnatural at the beginning, within one or two sentences, he opened and closed his mouth to say "Sir", which showed respect for Shirataki and did not mean to get close to him.

"Yeah" he coughed lightly, looking at Xiaonan, Shirataki asked softly, "Can you tell me now, where have you seen me?"

Xiaonan took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and the memories of the past slowly flowed through her mind. Now facing Shirataki, the emotion called fear was gradually buried deep in his heart, and what emerged again was the light full of awareness.

Although Yahiko judged that the other party would not kill children like them, Konan was still prepared to die. She knew who Shirataki was and knew that the road ahead was an unpredictable junction of life and death, but she still chose to follow Yahiko and now stood in front of Shirataki.

The reason why she got to this point was because she hoped that she could help Yahiko and help Yahiko realize his great dream. Perhaps, it can now be regarded as her own dream. To do this, she and Yahiko must have power.

For this reason, it’s normal to take a little risk. Opening his eyes again, his eyes were fixed on Shirataki's face. Seeing that the other party was listening, Xiaonan organized some words and said, "That was about five months ago, I"

As Xiaonan's words slowly unfolded, scenes from the past seemed to reappear in front of Shirataki. The narration did not take long, and by the time the last sentence fell, only five minutes had passed.

"Are you a child from that time?" After carefully looking at Xiaonan's face, Shirataki felt surprised, but it didn't show any signs of surprise on the surface. He just said slowly, "So, the reason why you know me is because I spared your life and that of your companions."

Seeing that Xiao Nan was silent, Shirataki's expression remained unchanged, but he secretly sighed in his heart, "No wonder Xiao Nan seems so afraid of me. It turns out that he really had a relationship with her, and it should have left a big psychological shadow on her."

Thinking back to the last Hanzo battle, time seemed to have passed without realizing it. After that battle, he did participate in the task of cleaning up the Rain Ninja troops, and Xiaonan seemed to be one of the children who walked with the Rain Ninjas.

But he didn't expect that Xiaonan, a character who had left a deep impression on him in the original work, happened to be among those children. This really surprised Shirataki. After all, he didn't pay much attention to some of the war orphans in the Land of Rain at that time, so he naturally missed Konan among the children.

As a result, through a strange twist of fate, Xiaonan appeared in front of him again. This was really fate. With a subtle smile on his lips, Shirataki first looked at Konan, then turned his gaze to Yahiko on the other side, and asked, "I remember your name is Yahiko, right?"

Without waiting for Yahiko to answer, Shirataki continued, "You knew what happened at that time, but you still chose to see me. It seems that you are really not afraid of death."

Shirataki's face looked half-smiling, and his tone did not reveal any overt emotions. Yahiko was a little unsure of the other party's attitude at this time, so he decided to deal with it calmly, "I think that a ninja like you should I don’t bother to embarrass children like me and Xiaonan.”
