Noctilucent Leaf

Chapter 14 Doubt
On the other side, Konoha, the Minato family.

After Minato dealt with the neighbors and some Anbu who heard the noise, he re-entered the house with a tired face, looked at the damaged wall, and Minato said helplessly.

"I'm back, Kushina."

Sitting at home, Jiu Xinnai, who was waiting for her husband to come back, smiled beautifully, and replied.

"Welcome home, Minato!"

Minato walked up to Kushina and sat down, seeing Kushina as if nothing had happened, and sighed helplessly.

"So, Kushina, can you tell me why you didn't let me go after Orochimaru now?"

Kushina seemed to have expected Minato to ask this question a long time ago, raised his hand, stroked Minato's face, and said tenderly: "Believe me, Minato, there is a reason why I can't tell you, but it must be right to do that." of."

Minato was obviously silent for a while, and then slowly opened his mouth.

"Can you give me some hints?"

Jiu Xinnai was a little tangled up immediately, she promised Ye Guang not to tell anyone else about Ye Guang's identity, but facing the person she was closest to in front of her, just to give some hints, Jiu Xin Nai still couldn't help it, so, After thinking for a long time, she still spoke.

"Voice, if it's you..."

sound?

Minato fell silent again. Thinking about it carefully, the masked man's voice was hoarse, and it could be heard that the other party was not very old. At the same time, that voice had a special sense of familiarity for Minato. .

What is the special sense of familiarity?

It seems...it seems...wrong...that voice...I must have heard it somewhere, think about it carefully, Namikaze Minato, think about it carefully, you can definitely remember it, and fell into deep thought at Minato In the middle, and when he was about to find the person in his memory, a burst of applause came into his ears.

Kushina clapped his hands, pulled Minato out of his contemplation, and said helplessly, "You can think about those things later, the reminder has been given to you, I can't take it back, right? Now, the most important thing Or Kakashi? That kid..."

Minato was stunned, but also reacted, patted his forehead, and said, "You're right, Kushina, let's go see Kakashi first."

Soon after, Minato and Kushina went to the hospital.

As early as when Ye Guang left, Minato ordered an Anbu to take Kakashi to Konoha's hospital, and stayed behind to deal with those who came after hearing the news. Kushina, as the person involved, naturally stayed, Until now, they had no time to visit Kakashi.

Shortly after.

Konoha Hospital.

Looking at the unconscious Kakashi in front of him, Minato frowned and said, "Sure enough, those eyes are Sharingan?"

Kushina didn't speak at the side.

And Minato fell into deep thought again, and gradually, he felt that he seemed to be getting closer to the truth.

...

...

...

the other side.

Hiruzaru Sarutobi looked at the sky and couldn't help thinking.

"Who is that paper crane?"

After a long time, he looked outside Muye Village again.

"Jiraiya, I hope you can stop Orochimaru."

...

...

...

Rain country.

A vortex appeared, and Ye Guang, Xiao Nan, and Orochimaru appeared there.

Ye Guang looked around, it was a flat land with many rocks.

"Yeguang, what are you doing here?"

Xiao Nan couldn't help asking, although Xiao Nan followed Yeguang when he went to Konoha before, but Ye Guang asked Xiao Nan to stay in the Shenwei space and never come out in order to ensure Xiao Nan's safety, until now he returned to the Kingdom of Rain Only then did Yeguang release Xiao Nan.

Ye Guang didn't speak, but looked straight in one direction.

Seeing this, Xiaonan and Dashewan also looked over.

In that direction, a little boy about ten years old hugged a ninja's thigh tightly, and kept talking in a pleading tone.

"Please, please, give me some food, just a little, just a little..."

The ninja looked at the little boy with disgust, and kicked the little boy away.

"You don't have the talent to be a ninja, your physical strength is not good, and your mind is not smart. In other words, you are useless to me. Get out, you don't have the conditions and ability to exchange food with me."

After the little boy was kicked, there was a look of extreme pain in his eyes. After all, it was a ninja in front of him, not an ordinary person. It was naturally painful to kick a little boy in his teens, but the little boy The boy still insisted on propping himself up with his hands, walked tremblingly in front of the ninja, and knelt down on both knees.

"Please...cough...please, just a little bit, a little bit, I...cough cough...I have nothing, but, but I still have a life."

The ninja glanced at the little boy again with distaste, then ignored him, turned around and left, but within a few steps, he felt his feet being restrained by a force again, which little boy was it!

The ninja does have food, and he can give some of it to the little boy, and he will not be affected in any way, but why?He is no philanthropist!
This time, the ninja didn't kick the little boy away.

Pull out kunai and add chakra.

Turn around and swing down!
A blood-stained arm flew up. Looking at the one-armed little boy and the unbearable pain on his face, the ninja spoke.

"Boy, this is a warning. This time, it is your arm. If there is another time, it will be your head!"

"Ahhhh!!!"

A cry of pain can be felt through the air from the little boy's mouth, it hurts so much!This is not an adult, this is just a boy in his teens. It is impossible not to feel pain when he suddenly suffers from the pain of a severed arm.

The ninja looked at the little boy screaming in pain and sneered.

"If you know it hurts, don't chase after it."

After finishing speaking, he walked towards the distance.

The little boy's eyes are full of fear at this moment, he is afraid, afraid that the man will kill him!The pain of the broken arm is still on his body, the little boy is really scared, scared...

Thinking of this, the little boy's other hand that hadn't been broken rose again, and once again pulled the ninja's trousers, and what appeared in his eyes was a plea mixed with fear.

"Please...give...give me some food..."

The ninja looked back at the little boy and said coldly.

"So, do you want to die?"

"Please...give me...give me..."

The tone was still begging, as if for that portion of food, one's life could be lost.

"Very well, I can't give you anything else, but if I die, I can give it to you."

The ninja sneered, raised Kunai, and pointed it at the top of the little boy's head.

"Please...give me some food..."

Because of the excessive bleeding, the little boy's voice had gradually weakened, but he seemed to have not seen the kunai above his head, and he still desperately begged for food from the ninja.

"Okay! I will fulfill you!"

The ninja yelled, and the kunai in his hand stabbed at the top of the little boy's head.

Also at this time.

A vortex appeared out of thin air and directly appeared on the ninja.

distortion!distortion!
"Oh!"

The ninja was directly twisted into a ball by the overly powerful space distortion, and then exploded violently. At the moment it exploded, all the flesh and blood were absorbed by the vortex again.

After that, the whirlpool reappeared, and the three of Ye Guang appeared beside the little boy.

The little boy stared blankly at the scene in front of him. Although he didn't understand what happened, when he saw the three of Ye Guang appear, he immediately crawled over with one hand and grabbed Ye Guang's trousers.

"Please, please...give me...a little...food."

Ye Guang squatted down and looked at the little boy in front of him.

"Can you tell me why you want food?"

The little boy replied without hesitation.

"...Because I don't want to starve to death..."

Night Light shook his head.

"Your persistence is beyond this scope. If you just want to live, maybe you can put down your dignity and ask for help, but you can't continue to ask for help in the face of death threats, because you are here to live, there is no way to seek death reason."

The little boy was obviously taken aback, but he still insisted.

"I really don't want to starve to death, please, give me some food."

At this time, Orochimaru had stopped the bleeding of the boy's severed arm, and delivered some chakra to the boy, restoring the boy's spirit.

The red light flashed, and Ye Guang spoke to the little boy.

"look into my eyes."

The little boy did so, and then he fell into the illusion of night light.

"What do you want food for?"

"In order to keep my sister alive."

Hearing this answer, the three of Ye Guang were silent for a while, and then Ye Guang continued to ask.

"What happened to your sister?"

"My sister fell ill."

"Where are your family members? Why do you ask a child to come out to beg for food?"

"My parents were killed by ninjas. Since then, I have been afraid of ninjas. For some reason, ninjas let me and my sister go. After that, my sister and I depended on each other. My sister was born weak, and soon fell ill while wandering. For my sister, I had no choice but to come out and beg for food."

"Aren't you looking for someone to heal your sister?"

"I...I can't trust other people...I'm so scared..."

"What are you afraid of?"

"Afraid of ninjas."

"Since you are afraid of ninjas, why do you ask for food from ninjas?"

"I can't find anyone else..."

"Begging for food at the risk of death? What about your sister when you die?"

"Yeah, I'm dead, what about my sister? But, if I don't ask for food, what about my sister? She's really about to die, I can't... I can't lose my family anymore."

Hearing this, Ye Guang fell silent. He came here on purpose at the beginning, because he knew that battles often occurred in this place, and it was not a very serious place in the war-torn Kingdom of Rain. and peace" answer.

In the past, Ye Guang followed Nagato and the others. Although he could often see killing and being killed, seeing this kind of simple death more often made Ye Guang numb. He couldn't really feel the feeling of hating war, because His strength determined that death in war was impossible for him.

Ye Guang from modern times knows that peace should be pursued and war should be cast aside, but he has never understood the hatefulness of war.Coupled with the little bit of hatred for the world left by Obito before his death, Ye Guang has been lost in war and peace.

Only now did Ye Guang understand the true cruelty of war.

It's not just life and death on the battlefield. The cruelest thing is that outside the battlefield, under the roar of the monster named "War", everyone needs to face the threat of survival.

In the past, they might be able to pursue their dreams, pursue what they want, find a comfortable partner, and live a stable life.

But now, everyone needs to work hard to survive, and stability has long been impossible.

The only possibility is to die in the next second.

"Are you afraid of death?"

"Fear, war makes people afraid of death, but it just doesn't allow people to be afraid of death."
