Naruto: Fox and Cat

After sending hundreds of shadow clones to help clean up the battlefield, Naruto himself returned to the base.In order to facilitate their movement, most of the bases in the base have been removed, and the remaining barriers will not affect Naruto's shadow clones.After the current situation is stable, the injured three people have been sent to independent wards.

Naruto barely left the ward, lying beside the bed and reaching out to hold her wrist. The weak pulse under his fingertips was the basis for him to stay calm.Wu said that these few days are still a dangerous period, and if he can survive these few days, he will be through this difficulty.

[Wind, the war is over now, you will wake up after a good rest...], Naruto looked sideways at the girl who still had her eyes closed, smiled slightly and just held her wrist, and followed it with his fingers. I'm jumping slightly and am ready to take a short break.

Even in his short sleep, his erratic consciousness fluctuated with the vague and rhythmic pulse, and he felt inexplicably at ease in his drowsiness.As sleep deepens, the faint pulse seems to fade away with it.

"!!!" Naruto, who was asleep, suddenly sat up with his eyes wide open and his face covered with cold sweat as if he had a nightmare. The hand that had been resting on the girl's wrist could no longer feel much movement at some point.Glancing in horror at the electrocardiogram that was gradually approaching the horizontal line, he immediately staggered out and rushed out, "Dance! Dance!! The wind situation is very wrong!!!"

"What's wrong??" Wu ran out from nearby. Seeing his panic, she guessed something and immediately asked him to call someone, "Help find Sister Jing!"

After saying that, she ran into Ying Luofeng's ward. After a while, she pushed the bed and hurried into the operating room. The next second, the red light outside the operating room turned on.

When Naruto got Jing back, he saw Lei pushing Yue Ming into the operating room. Before he could ask, the door of the operating room was closed.Homura and Rain soon came over and opened a barrier outside the operating room.

Thick bandages could still be seen on Yu's body. In a hurry, he only had time to put a coat on his body. He glanced at the lost Naruto before sighing and reaching out to pat his shoulder, "Look away."

"Yes." Yan Ye nodded, and then walked out, "Miss Yue Ling should be arriving soon. I'll go out to pick her up."

"Then I'm going to clean up." Yu Ye turned around and left, starting to make preparations to evacuate here.

Naruto, who had not yet come to his senses, stood in front of the door in a daze, the red light of the reminder light shining on his face covered in cold sweat.Although he only had time to take a look just now, Ying Luofeng's bloodless face and soundless look were enough to make him shiver all over.

[No...there is definitely a way...], Naruto, who was at his wits' end, knew that the only thing he could do now was to wait. He could only believe with all his heart that everything would go smoothly, because he was not prepared to endure that moment. The blow that ruined him all.

As time passed, no sound came from the operating room, only the red light on the door shone with an increasingly ominous red light.

"Sure enough, I still can't make it~", the hoarse voice suddenly sounded without any surprise, and then Orochimaru slowly walked out of the dark corridor.

Naruto seemed unable to see his arrival, still standing motionless at the door.

"What a surprise. I thought you would yell impulsively or blast Kyuubi directly like before." Orochimaru leaned against the wall, his slender eyes slightly narrowed as if he had an ulterior motive.

"..." Naruto still didn't speak. He clenched his fists for a while before asking in a low voice, "What did you mean by that sentence before?"

Orochimaru just grinned, and then slowly talked about another thing, "Speaking of which, during the war before, the Sakura Fall clan's move to eliminate four tailed beast jade was pretty cool."

Seeing the pink dots of light flying all over the sky before, Naruto also thought that it was the direct reason why Sakura Luofeng and the others were so weak, but...

"That move is the most taboo forbidden technique of the Sakura clan. As you can see, it is powerful and can destroy all creatures containing chakra. Obito escaped because he was protected by magic and natural power. "

Naruto only felt that he was beginning to be unable to breathe. Even if he opened his mouth wide, he could not feel any air.Ying Luofeng said before that their family's spells are different from those of ninjas, and all spells require different levels of price.

Orochimaru didn't pay attention to what was wrong with him, and continued calmly, "That move is called Falling Sakura, and you should have guessed the price. That technique is irreversible, and no one can save them."

The clenched fists were shaking slightly with force. Naruto could only suppress his emotions with all his strength, and said in a hoarse voice, "It's impossible..."

It was obvious that the trembling and desperate voice had obvious self-comfort, but if not, Naruto didn't know what he would do next...

After a while, hurried footsteps sounded again from deep in the distant corridor, and within a few seconds, several people rushed here in a hurry.Regardless of the two ninjas still standing in front of the door, they directly untied the barrier on the door and pushed open the stone door and went inside. The whole process took less than a few seconds.

Naruto was slightly diverted by this. Although he had never seen those people before, they were all wearing clothes with the emblem of the Sakura clan, "They are..."

Orochimaru was not distracted, and naturally noticed the young and beautiful woman at the head, "Sakura Yue Ling, the daughter of the current head of the family, is currently the second in command of the Sakura clan."

Although Naruto had heard of this name, there was only one thing he cared about at the moment, and he immediately asked with hope, "In other words, will Feng and the others be okay??"

"She can't change anything when she comes, Naruto-kun. She's not Sakura Moon, she doesn't know any medical skills, and her family's abilities are just average." Orochimaru just said with a half-smile, "She's just here. Just cleaning up the mess.”

"There will definitely be a way..." Even if he said this, Naruto didn't want to give up that little bit of hope.

Time passed by minute by second, and after several hours, the stone door that had been closed was slowly pushed open from the inside.As it was opened, a faint smell of blood spread.

The familiar smell of blood only made Naruto feel panic at this time. He tried to ignore the growing uneasiness in his heart, and tried to calmly ask the person who came out, "Wu, how is the wind??"

Mai, who was wearing a surgical gown, took off her mask tiredly, her eyes already turning red before she even opened her mouth.

"...", her expression said everything, but Naruto did not dare to guess further.

Then a young woman with a good figure and a beautiful face walked out. After seeing Naruto's expression, she knew something and said, "In a few hours, we will take my brother and the others back to the clan. Now you can go in and take a look. ."

Hearing her words, Naruto gained a little more hope and immediately looked, "That means?!"

"The last time. Our tribe does not allow outsiders to enter." Yue Ling, with a gloomy face, just left these words coldly and walked forward.

"The last... side..." Naruto's eyes widened in disbelief, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.When Yue Ling was about to pass him, he immediately reached out to stop her and shouted in a panic, "What the hell is going on? Wasn't it good before?!"

Yue Ling just glanced at him and explained calmly, "That spell has completely destroyed their bodies, and there is nothing we can do about it. The medicine you gave them lasted for a while, but it was only a drop in the bucket. Give me some now." Spend some time alone with Xiaofeng so that you can accept this fact."

"..." Naruto weakly lowered his hand to stop her. His eyes were dull for a while before he spoke tremblingly, "It's impossible..."

"You look less than 20 years old, and there is still a long way to go. Xiaofeng definitely doesn't want you to spend too much time on her." Yue Ling sighed slightly, then reached out and patted his shoulder, "Let's say goodbye properly."

After saying that, she continued to walk forward quickly. After all, she needed to make all arrangements as soon as possible and retreat from this base.

"Young man, Sister Feng is in the first room inside. I will take care of the young master first." Wu wiped the corners of her eyes, looked at Naruto and then continued with some hesitation, "Young man, you..."

Naruto lowered his head slightly and didn't answer. His slightly longer golden bangs covered his eyes, and the shadow also covered half of his face.After a while, he just raised his head and asked a little too calmly, "Speaking of which, how are Yue Ming and Sister Yun doing?"

"Sister Yun is in the best condition, but the young master..." Wu opened her mouth but still couldn't finish what she said. She clenched her fists for a while before turning and entering the operating room.

"Sorry." Naruto apologized in a low voice, knowing that he mentioned something he shouldn't have mentioned.After all, he also knew that Yue Ming's situation was not much better than that of Ying Luofeng. If he had not protected Ying Luofeng at that time, she might not have been able to come down from the battlefield alive.

Afterwards, he silently entered the operating room that was full of the smell of disinfectant, blood and medicine.

"Sister Feng was just transferred to this room, young man, you..." Wu paused, but still didn't say anything more, waved her hands and turned around to leave.

Naruto pursed his lips tightly for a while before slowly walking into the quiet ward.

Not a sound could be heard in the deathly quiet ward. The girl lying on the hospital bed seemed to be asleep as before, but her pale and lifeless face said everything.Her long, snow-white hair was well combed, and her pale hospital gown made her look like she might disappear at any moment.

There are still many large and small scars on the pale skin, many of which have been carefully bandaged, but even so, it cannot change the fact that she is lifeless.

Apparently not long ago, he could still feel the pulse from her wrist.But I never thought that when I closed my eyes, she would quietly leave him.

Naruto walked in with some floating steps, tremblingly reaching out his hand but not daring to touch the pale face. After a while, he mustered up the courage to touch her face gently, but he couldn't breathe due to the coldness of the tentacles. A lag.

wind……

"Impossible... wind..." Naruto stretched his trembling fingers in front of her nose but couldn't feel any breath.' His fingers trembled and slid to her neck, and he pressed lightly but couldn't feel anything. pulsation.

Naruto closed his eyes tightly for a while and forced himself not to think too much. He sat on the edge of the bed and gently leaned close to her heart and listened quietly. Even though he was holding his breath, he still couldn't feel anything. movement,

The room was so quiet that not even the sound of breathing could be heard, but Naruto slowly shed tears because of the dead silence. The warm tears sank into the white sheets but could not wake up the sleeping person.

After maintaining that position motionless for a long time, Naruto seemed to finally accept the fact.He straightened up and sat on the edge of the bed, then gently stretched out his hand to hold the girl's hand. The cold temperature of the other person made him feel the coldness reaching the depths of his soul.

But he carefully reached out and took the quilt to cover their hands, and carefully used his own body temperature to warm the cold hand.

Surprisingly, except for the tears he shed at the beginning, Naruto seemed unusually calm at the moment, unnaturally calm.It was as if the girl he loved most was just taking a nap instead of never waking up again.

The other hand gently touched the girl's cold cheek, and Naruto smiled softly and said, "Feng, the war has lasted for so long, you are really tired, right? Then have a good rest~~"

The girl with her eyes closed just lay there quietly, unable to hear his words or feel his movements.

Gently holding up a strand of hair that was scattered on the bed, Naruto looked at the white snow in his hands in silence.The dark hair in the memory has already turned snow-white at this time, which can even make people who look at it feel heartbroken.

After putting down the hair in his hand, he just gently stretched out his hand to comb the girl's long hair. No matter that she didn't respond, she just whispered softly, "Feng, I have been thinking about things after the war..."

He also asked this question before the war began.At that time, the gentle girl said with longing and expectation:

[After the war is over and the family has stabilized, I can lay down my responsibilities and travel. ]

After she finished speaking with a smile, she also said to herself in a rare coquettish manner, "Naruto wants to come too, let's walk around together~"

Her bright smile at that time seemed to be still vivid in my mind, but when I returned to reality and saw her bloodless pale face, the originally beautiful future was completely destroyed.

[No...], after closing his eyes to suppress the despair, he just touched her face gently, his soft eyebrows were a bit creepy, [I will not let you leave me, no matter what At what cost. ]

The Nine-Tails dormant in his inner world keenly felt the frightening danger, and immediately reminded, "Hey, Naruto, calm down!" ]

[I am very calm, Jiu Lama.The wind is just sleeping, don't wake her up~], Naruto smiled slightly, gently leaned over and kissed her on the forehead.

Seeing that he was getting more and more uncomfortable, Kyuubi couldn't help but become vigilant, [Naruto, could you...]

"Shh, I told you not to disturb the wind, Nine Lama." After smiling softly, Naruto just straightened up and took out the small package that Sakura Luofeng left before and opened it. Unsurprisingly, it was quiet inside. Lying on the ground was a Konoha forehead protector and a kunai.He had given it to Ying Luofeng before, but now that she was given it back before she left, he knew very well what it meant.

Ying Luofeng already knew what her ending would be, so she wanted to end it right now...

But whether he accepts it or not is another matter.

Looking at the forehead protector that had been with him for several years, Naruto had no intention of wearing it again. After tightening the hand that had been holding Sakura Luofeng, he whispered, "If it weren't for Feng If you put it on for me yourself, then this forehead protector is unnecessary..."

[...], Kyuubi, who had been paying attention, couldn't help but frown when he heard it. On the other hand, he had watched Naruto grow up, so he naturally knew how important that forehead protector was to him, and Now that it is no longer possible for Ying Luofeng to put on that forehead protector for him, the meaning of what he said is...

But Kyuubi didn't say anything to dissuade him. It would have been better if Naruto cried loudly to express his sorrow, but now he was too calm and calmly made it feel creepy.

"Then let me keep it safe for you Feng~" After putting the things away, Naruto continued to look at the girl with her eyes closed quietly.

No matter how hard he tried, he could not warm the cold temperature of the hands held together.However, even though the girl's cold body temperature kept reminding him of the cruel truth, Naruto was unwilling to believe it anyway.

[Naruto, please end this war quickly. In this case, your long-held wish will come true~] At that time, the scarred girl smiled as gently as ever, and her dark eyes were full of trust.

Naruto has always been his dream, and he firmly believes that he will achieve this goal one day.

But why now when I think of her words and look at her bloodless face, I seem to have lost all motivation.

[When the war is over, Naruto will definitely become a hero of the world.Protect me well when the time comes~], the girl smiled and narrowed her eyes, with pride on her face, which was her expectation and pride for him.

Now, the war is over, but she will never open her eyes again...

If this was the price, then he would rather do it all over again, just to get her to smile again...

The other hand gently attached to the girl's cold cheek, which was covered with many small injuries. After Naruto stared at her quietly for a long time, his determination became more determined.

"Feng, you said you would stay with me. Don't break your promise~~" Holding the girl's warmed hand, Naruto looked at her sleeping face tenderly and said, "Feng, there was a place where I lived a long time ago I just want to take you there. That place is beautiful, you will definitely like it."

Gently kissing the back of her pale hand, he said softly, "Let's go, Feng~"
