[Zuo Ming] Bone Eater

The heavy rain drenched the entire forest.

The strong wind blows, the rain curtain tilts, and the water droplets on the flowers and plants flow into water lines, converging into the puddles on the ground.The sky was so gloomy that every bolt of lightning tore apart the face of the sky, and what remained was heavy thunder that seemed to be in pain.

Under a tall cedar tree, a blond boy sat under it, staring blankly at himself in the puddle.

How did everything become like this.

What is this kind of life for...

He couldn't stop thinking.

The crime continued silently in the corner of this seemingly peaceful village.But even though he shouted behind the darkness, he couldn't attract the arrival of salvation.

Vaguely, he seemed to hear a voice whispering in his body.

【Let me out, how about I teach this man a lesson for you? 】

The sly, seductive voice is so clear.

The blond boy could clearly feel it, but he thought about the horror and danger of letting it out, but gave up again and again.

[Even so, do you still think about the village? 】

The answer is, of course, yes.

Even if you are broken into pieces, you will not do anything that is sorry for the village.

This result made Nine-Tailed Fox gnash his teeth.

【You won't have good results, brat.This man will completely destroy you, and there will be no room for you to turn around in the future.Just like this, you suffer from his torture every day, and then watch Konoha fall into a catastrophe! 】

He didn't answer anything, so the daily seduction was completely over.

He covered his face, his shoulders began to tremble.

The fact is that he had had enough of being threatened and bullied by Medicine Master, but he refused to release Kyuubi, cutting off his last way.He didn't think he was great, but he felt stupid, but he didn't regret it either.

He told himself that it wasn't enough to completely sink into the point where he didn't want to live.

It's just that I have no idea what to do next.

He hasn't grown up yet, and he's still so weak. It would be great if he could be made stronger. He will definitely not be slaughtered like this.

Is there anyone to rescue him?

Where did Hachioji-san go?

Why didn't Sasuke see his strange appearance, why did he feel so pale and powerless at this moment when he and his heart were connected?

He buried his head between his knees.

Feel hopeless.

At this sad and helpless moment, there was the rustling of grass from nowhere, and Naruto immediately became vigilant when he heard it.

He touched the trunk and stood up, watching in fear.

He was afraid that it was the white-haired guy again.The pharmacist pocket.He was afraid that he would put on an evil smile again, so he said triumphantly as he approached him: "Today's show is about to start again."

Thinking of this, Naruto looked around nervously and wanted to escape.

"Who is there?!"

He asked loudly into the grass, but there was no answer.Such a crowded woods, which are clearly full of trees and flowers, seems so empty at this moment. — This is the frightening emptiness created by the silence and the eerie.

He was scared.

It's better to leave.

No matter whether it's Dou or someone else, he doesn't want to see anyone now.Because they can't help him, and may even bring him danger.

Naruto thought, took two steps back and turned to leave.But the moment he lifted his foot, the voice in the grass became louder, and then——

"Naruto!"

After the sound fell, Naruto stood still.

Really, very nice voice...

Calm, powerful, gentle and familiar...

it's wired.

Naruto can be sure that he has never known such a person with such a voice, but he felt familiar the first second he heard this voice, and felt that it didn't matter whether it was time or space or anything.It's just such a voice, as long as he hears it, he can recognize this person and know the existence of this person.

It's incredible.

He thought, and slowly turned his head, and then, a figure that surprised him and couldn't turn his eyes appeared behind the grass.

The blond boy stared blankly at the figure that suddenly appeared, and his whole body froze.

He saw that he was tall and handsome, wearing a black raincoat robe, and a grass-yellow hat on his head. A short rope of suitable thickness was hanging from the edge of the hat, and a bell was tied on it; Covered by the white cloth strips, it is difficult to see the man's appearance clearly, but his eyes are very beautiful, the black eyes are like beautiful obsidian, deep at one end and deep at the other end, beautiful and attractive beyond reach.

Just staring into those eyes is enough to know everything about this man.

At this time, it was very windy and windy, and the bells hanging from the edge of the man's bamboo hat fluttered and jingled with the rain, and the messy melody opened a different prelude to the meeting of the two.

"I am Uzumaki Naruto, who are you...?"

Naruto opened his mouth, and the surrounding breath instantly changed the direction of blowing.

Under the dark rain, he saw that the eyes of the man opposite him revealed a surprised and moist color that he couldn't understand.

***

Rewind time to this morning.

On this morning, a dazzling light sent a person to a strange place.

This ray of light went straight to the heavens, as if it was about to pierce the sky, and because of the constant thunder for the past few days, when this ray of light broke through the sky, there was a thunderous thunder, so no one noticed the appearance of this visitor.

And on the night when the visitor left his own world, the fullest and brightest moon hung by the pool where he had been living in seclusion.

Since he cremated his beloved in this quiet and beautiful pool, he built his own house by the pool, lived his own farming and fishing every day, and lived in secret.

Every seven days, countless blue butterflies fly over this beautiful pool under the moonlight, and sprinkle countless dreamlike colors.He would sit quietly by the river, grab a bag of fireflies and show them to him here.

If it wasn't for his brother by blood, he would suddenly disappear from the world.

If it wasn't for his good friend Yamazaki telling him, he heard someone in a village mention Sasuke.

If it weren't for the fact that the younger brother who had never grown up might be in danger, he wouldn't have left here.

The night before he left, his insightful eyes kept looking at the pool, his lips seemed to be unopened, and he whispered for a long time

"Just away for a few days, will be back soon, after bringing him back, I will be back soon."

Low complaints over and over again, promises over and over again.Then he packed his bags and set off.

However, the search was not that simple, and he found nothing in the first few days.It wasn't until he went to the village where his younger brother had been and met Ziwan and Guixie, two old companions and a boy named Amu, that he knew where that stubborn brother by blood had gone.

"He kept mumbling that he saw Naruto, and he said that he went back to the past. Through the gems of a woman named Saana. I heard that there are six gems of that kind, and there are five remaining in this world. If you can find one of them, you can go to where they went. Go back to Konoha Village in the past and meet... him."

When Zi Wan said these words, she lamented endlessly: "I always feel that there may be such a thing, but it must not be as safe as we think, or maybe he was just tricked and fooled."

"How do you decide?" the man with the shark face asked so seriously.

If it were someone else, they would definitely think this kind of behavior was crazy and ridiculous.

The so-called listening to rumors, found the legendary gem that can travel through time and space, and went back to the past.

However, his decision was made very quickly.And with excellent contacts and abilities, he found another lost gem in the legend.

He knew that his younger brother was an impulsive person, but he was not out of his mind.

At the same time, even if there is a one in 1000 million chance, as long as he hears that his beloved has appeared somewhere, he will arrive there even if his body is smashed to pieces.

So on this day, he understood and successfully used these rubies with superhuman ability, and went to an unknown world where his brother and the person he loved might have been in their childhood.

Then, he penetrated a black space, and then he landed, and then he observed the surrounding environment, and then, he was shocked.

This place is Konoha.This place is without a doubt Konoha.

He couldn't contain his excitement.

He began to frantically explore the surrounding environment, and while searching, he noticed a boy, a blond boy with despair in his eyes sitting under a tree.

The moment he saw that familiar face, his heart clenched tightly.

The pulse of the heart played a strong melody that had never been seen in the past four or five years.

Is that... Naruto? !

In disbelief, he asked himself.

But there is no doubt that it is Naruto!

because

too familiar

I miss you so much

too excited

He still remembers the day he dressed him in the funeral clothes with his own hands.

I remember the day when I caressed his messy bangs and closed eyes for him.

His sleeping face is as gentle as ever, and his soul seems to be still by his side.

He remembered that he placed every branch of white chrysanthemum for him, and he remembered putting on the belated ring for him.

I remember the ice crystals in the corners of his eyes, and his sick and emaciated body.

Remember that he hated his words.

He also remembers a fire and he disappeared before his eyes.

All these memories entangled and made his hands tremble.

Even though his body was poured by the torrential rain, he didn't know it.

He saw that he was alive again, at this moment, more than anything else, his consciousness became clearer, and the memories shattered his dull life.

That's why he stood in a daze behind the bushes without saying a word until he found out.

***

"who are you?"

Now that they were discovered, the dialogue between the two was inevitable.

The 12-year-old blond boy stood in front of the man who suddenly appeared, and asked vigilantly and suspiciously.

The blond boy hadn't grown out yet, it looked like the first time he met this man formally back then, but his handsome appearance was already recognizable.

"I……"

The man who appeared suddenly spoke softly, but the words stuck in his throat.

He didn't know what mood and face to face this young man now.Is this him?Is it his lover?Was it the young man who died because of him?

The answer is obviously yes.However, the subtle thing is that this boy is still not exactly the same as him a few years later.

One of them had never seen him, the other was with him to the death, they were not alone.

So he had to think about how to express himself properly in front of this young man without causing trouble to him, and would not have a bad impact on their later relationship.

So he thought about it, and after choosing countless words in his mind, he was cautious and friendly.

"I just passed by here looking for shelter from the rain."

Hearing this gentle voice, Naruto's vigilant heart relaxed a little.

Not a bad guy yet.

He originally wanted to turn around and leave, but the voice of the man who appeared had a familiarity that strongly attracted him.

He always felt as if he had seen this person somewhere.

Unconsciously, he took two steps forward.

From his perspective, this man is tall, with a muscular body and energetic eyes, it can be felt that he is not very old.

however……

Naruto's eyes unconsciously glanced at the white hair under the bamboo hat.

This made him misjudge his age.

This person seems to be only 24 or [-] years old, but how can he have a lot of white hair?

"Excuse me...how did you know that my name is Naruto's? Er...Brother?"

"Are you really Uzumaki Naruto?"

"Yup."

As if uneasy and unbelievable, the man confirmed again and again, Naruto replied hesitantly, and when he heard the third reply, a deep tear fell from the man wearing the bamboo hat, and the corner of his mouth trembled Tilt up.
