[Naruto] Ninja Notes of a Fan Girl

"da...su...y..."

A hoarse voice attracted attention.

Moriyemu stood in front of the girl covered in blood. The weak and broken syllables coming from his throat interested him. He squatted down, trying to hear her words clearly.

"Odagiri's absence is really troublesome. We were actually attracted by the loud shouting."

Yutaka Izumi said as he drew his sword from the two Sunagakures.

"After all, she is a sentient ninja, we are not."

Morihamu looked at Izumi Yutaka's feet. Sunagakure, who had just fought with his student and forced her into a desperate situation, had now turned into two corpses whose temperature was dissipating.

Quan Yufeng's attack was very neat, and in conjunction with his own illusions, in the blink of an eye, at the moment of awareness, the two people's heads were separated and they lost their breath.

However, the girl who was beaten to death was not so optimistic. The blood around her body was flowing out from this body.

Before she could speak, the girl with high ponytail sheathed her sword, walked over lightly, stopped beside the girl, and frowned.

"The bones used to support the body are almost broken..."

"a...d..."

The mutilated hand pointed forward tremblingly.

Moriyemu walked quickly in that direction, and finally found the dying boy behind a few wooden boards.

"He seems to be seriously injured, but treatment can save his life now."

"What about her?"

Izumi Yutaka can completely understand what Moriyemu wants her to do, but there is nothing she can do.

Quan Yufeng shook his head.

Not to mention other fatal injuries, the girl's lungs had been damaged, and the only way to save her was to watch her die in pain.

"Give her a...pleasure, Ye Mu."

Izumi Yufeng suppressed the trembling in his voice and fully stated the cruel but humane behavior.

Seeing this, he understood without saying a word, silently drew out the grass pheasant sword behind him, and aimed it at the girl's heart from behind.

Without hesitation, he cut the knife down and the sound ceased to exist.

-

"I am willing to do my best to save him"

"Even if it costs me my life"

"if it is possible"

"Then I will definitely——"

-

"Good morning, how are you feeling?"

Every morning you can see the sunshine coming in from the window and say hello as always.

All in all, this life has lasted for three months, from the somewhat cool autumn to the snowy winter, every day. Although I felt uncomfortable at first because of the unfamiliar place and the injuries on my body, there was no problem after I got used to it.

After all, I am very adaptable.

"No problem at all, so good that I think I'm cured!"

"It doesn't matter what you said."

"Eh?"

It was such a nice gift to exchange one's silly actions for a chuckle, and to be given a gift in return when I woke up in the morning.

"﹉Woolen cloth?"

"He went out early in the morning. It must be for morning exercise. He likes to do this every morning."

"It's already winter. It snowed yesterday. Is that okay?"

"It's no problem at all. We are ninjas. Ah, there's a knock on the door. It must be because of Little Snow's shouting that you came back so quickly. Go and open the door!"

"﹉I know how to tease people, I'm going to open the door!"

"Haha."

In order to open the top lock, first move a small stool to make up for your height, step on it firmly and open the door lock from top to bottom, then twist the door handle, and the door can be opened by a child who is not tall enough.

When the person behind the door saw that it was me who opened the door, there was surprise and joy in his eyes.

"Xueyou, can you open the door now?"

"Deng Deng! Surprise! But I'm not young anymore."

He raised his hand, lifted me off the stool, and then rubbed my head.

"Surprise, you did great."

"hey-hey……"

I am no longer a child.

I know this very well, but I still miss this atmosphere and am immersed in the role I play.

Although this happiness is the straw when I feel nothingness.

I am false.

Surrounding (the world) is also false.

-

-

"...snow friend."

"...snow friend."

Feeling that something was trying to wipe the corners of his eyes, Xueyou opened his eyes, the ceiling of the hospital came into view, the "beep" sound of the ventilator, and the person sitting next to him was calling him.

It’s incredible that I’m still alive.

"..."

"you're awake?"

There was a voice above her head, and she moved her head so that she was facing the person making the voice.

"Is this a dream...?"

The boy hesitated a little, but still let the handkerchief provided by Saaki Aoga fulfill its responsibility - wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Did you dream it? It's reality now."

"Am I crying...?"

"Ah."

"That's weird."

How strange it is to see you as soon as I wake up.

It's like dreaming.

"It's not surprising, you cry a lot."

Whether it's in the Land of Waves, outside the hospital, or now.

"I don't cry for no reason... I'm like a crybaby."

"Ah."

"Why are you here? Where are they..."

"I heard that you are hospitalized, and it just so happens that you have no duties recently. They have discussed taking turns to take care of you, which can also reduce Zuomu's workload."

I see. The Yukiyu expression in Sasuke's eyes was soft, "Thank you...how is he..."

"Sagi has just a superficial wound."

"That's good...great."

The weak girl smiled slowly in front of her. She thought for a while and then asked: "I wonder if you have ever seen a girl named Nakagawa Ye and a boy named Yong..."

They were the two people she fought so hard to save.

After the battle between Naruto and Gaara, they were taken to Konoha Hospital and treated together with all the injured ninjas in the fight. At this moment, they saw Yuki Yu who was pushed to the emergency room, and from Saaki Aoga learned the outline of the matter.

However, I learned the name only when Isamu Nakagawa disobeyed the doctor's instructions and ran out of the ward in a panic to look for someone after he regained consciousness.

Even though the doctor said it was difficult to stand with both legs, he was able to run so fast. No matter how much the lost boy searched, he never saw that familiar face or the warm and gentle smile in his memory.

at last.

A day later, screams that were not human voices erupted at the body reception area.

As spectators, they stood in the special seats and witnessed everything.

Sasuke didn't know what to say.

Even if you are guessing, you can guess that Xueyou became what he is now because of saving people.

What would she think if she knew that she fought tooth and nail to save people, but ended up like this?

The feeling of powerlessness of trying to save but not being able to.

It would be sad.

He looked at his snow friend who was waiting for the answer, and unknowingly imprinted the words "fragile guy" on her heart.

Crying in a dream, that dream must be very uncomfortable. If you know now——

"..."

"Sasuke...? Do you know Kazuo Nakagawa..."

"I'm here for you, Sasuke-kun!"

"Oh! Sasuke, you are indeed here!"

"I asked Naruto where you would be, and Naruto said you must be in Yukitomo's ward. You guys are really in sync!"

"Who is in sync with him (Naruto/Sasuke)?!"

Both men were dissatisfied with the conclusion Sakura had reached.

"Don't imitate me!"

"I told you not to imitate my speech!?"

"Okay, please stop making noise, this is the ward! The patient needs to rest!"

When the needle pointed at the light, he was interrupted by a nurse who happened to pass by the door while knocking on the door and knocking on the door. Xue You, who was lying on the bed, liked this situation and covered his mouth and laughed softly.

"Ha ha……"

"Forget it, just smile."

Naruto put his arms behind his head, not caring much about Sasuke's reaction, and turned his body away.

He seemed to be in a bad mood.

Sasuke didn't say much. He was asked by Yuki Yu just now and didn't know how to answer. Fortunately, two energetic voices rescued him.

"Speaking of which, Sakura, Naruto... why are you all dressed in black?"

"Uh...this is to-"

"That's right, friend Xue, when did you wake up? Are you hungry? Where is your body?"

"Keep your voice down, Naruto." And don't interrupt.

"cut……"

"I'm fine, no problem."

At this time Sasuke stood up and said to Naruto and Sakura: "Let's go."

"Ah."

"it's time."

"Let's go first, friend Xue. I will find the doctor here. You can rest in peace and recuperate. I will give you your share of flowers."

Yukiyo was a little confused by Sakura's words. Flowers? What kind of flowers should I give? "What day is today?"

As she blurted it out, she suddenly understood.

"It's my condolences, snow friend."

Sakura's wry smile, Sasuke's unnatural expression, and Naruto's tilted head all proved to be something very special.

Although Xueyou wanted to say that she would go with them, her body could not move at all.

"Then...you go, bye."

She raised her hand and gave up.

It's very cloudy outside.

After sending Naruto and others away, the doctor came in and performed a series of examinations on her. After confirming that she had passed the critical period, she was returned to Dr. Kanzaki for treatment - the facilities in the hospital were precious, and it was now the time for post-war recuperation, and critical care doctors There are too many illnesses to count. But one thing snow lovers can be sure of is——

Got scolded.

Seeing Dr. Kanzaki entering the ward angrily, she had a premonition that something bad was going to happen, and it turned out to be true.

"I, I, have said, let's not fight desperately!! Do you know that when I brought you here, it took me a whole night just to save you? If it weren't for the medical ninja who dealt with you before I brought you here, you Now I’ll meet the King of Hell!”

“Also, don’t just cause trouble to others!!!”

The cigarette in his mouth fell to the ground, and the sparks were half extinguished.

Even those who don't know how to observe words and emotions will know what they are going to do when faced with this posture.

"Uh... I'm sorry... I'm very sorry -"

I can only apologize honestly and wait for Dr. Kanzaki's anger to disappear, but...

"I said don't look away secretly! Are you thinking about other things! There is absolutely nothing good! I told you not to let me go out to the funeral today - don't even think about it! Put away those thoughts of yours!! Hey, Are you listening??!!”

It won't go away for a while.

"What the hell are you-"

"I'm listening, I'm listening! I repent seriously (I will never dare to do it again), super serious! I'm very sorry, I'm not going anywhere!"

"And..."

"I'm sorry! I apologize!"

"And..."

"Isn't that right?"

"..."

"..."

"...Are you done yet?"

Yukiyo clasped his hands and apologized continuously. Kanzaki looked impatient. He rubbed his untrimmed hair, which had grown to his neck. He took a deep breath and sighed, finally calming down. He picked up the cigarette butts on the ground and threw them into the trash can. He reached into the pocket of his white coat, took out a pack of cigarettes, and took out one.

"Doctor, no smoking in the ward."

"Don't give me any nonsense. If you don't want to be controlled, then stop meddling."

"Oh……"

Yukitomo was silent, and Kanzaki didn't intend to continue to accuse him. He knew before coming that nothing he said would work.

Give up on yourself...

However, if she didn't lecture her, she would still feel unhappy and full of anger, especially from the moment she accompanied the ninja rescue and saw Saiki guarding her with that expression. He was determined that if he could be rescued, he would give a serious lecture.

——If he can be rescued.

The person lying in a pool of blood had almost no body temperature, could not detect breathing, and had a shocking blood hole in his abdomen. He was initially judged dead by the doctors who were accompanying him.

The medical ninjas were short of manpower, so they were urgently called in by the hospital for support. Sunagakure was almost wiped out, and there were ninjas following them, so the hospital sent more than a dozen doctors to accompany them. He was deeply troubled, but he had a premonition that he would encounter a disobedient little girl, so he followed her without saying anything.

The results of it.

There is no way to save it.

I was very unwilling, just like when I first entered the operating room and was helpless to save the patient, I was comforted by the older generation of doctors, "Because this is a department where there are often critically ill patients who cannot be cured. You have tried your best, and we have nothing to do." Find a way to save him."

The boy kept holding her hand. He ignored his expression and kept repeating to them: Please save her, please don't give up, please save her, please don't give up...

It would be really heart-wrenching...if two masked ANBU ninjas hadn't arrived and forcibly used secret techniques to bring the dead back to life, narrowly avoiding the tragic ending.

Because the doctors have given up.

Speaking of which, the ANBU ninja almost couldn't hold on after rescuing people and was taken away by his colleagues.

"You, at least think more about the people around you."

The snow friend who was lamenting in his heart that he did not have a healthy body came back to his senses.

"You and that kid depend on each other, right?"

They depended on each other for their lives. It was obvious that he was her pretty boy.

"How can you tell..."

"In the past few days when you were in coma, he has been busy with you, including hospitalization procedures and taking care of you. When you came back, you seemed to have lost one of your weapons... He found it when he was counting the items, and ran out to find it for you in the middle of the night. ...It is said to be an important handy item, and it would be inconvenient to lose it.”

For this reason, he fell down in the ruins and suffered many minor wounds on his body.

"Well...after all, compared to you, I'm still..."

Doctor Kanzaki pursed his lips.

Huh……?

This guy still has... some conscience?

"Anyway, when it comes to what I'm talking about, you can take care of yourself."

He put away his cigarette case and turned around to go out to smoke, but was stopped by his snow friend.

"What else?"

"Doctor, do you know a girl named Nakagawano?"

"do not know."

"Oh……"

"But I do know the man named Nakagawa Yong. His hair color is too conspicuous. He is in the third room on the left side of your ward. The number is... let me think about it... 33051. If you know him, don't visit him recently. It’s better to provoke him.”

"His name is Yong..."

"He has conspicuous red hair and is very handsome. His body looks thin, but his arms are very powerful. 』

"why do you say so?"

"He suffered a huge blow and his mental state has been very poor recently. I gave him three injections of sedatives in a row, but he still feels uneasy."

"He has a strong will, he means what he says, and he will not die easily. 』

"I believe in him. 』

"So, please help me and bring him back." 』

"Even if I die, I am willing." 』

Xue You suddenly felt alarm bells ringing in her heart. Unaware of the truth, she was surrounded by uneasiness. "Can you tell me what kind of blow he... suffered?"

"You are really arrogant. Are you curious about things that hurt others?"

"Sorry……"

"If you say I'm sorry, why don't you correct yourself first? That's it, I'm leaving."

"and many more!"

"What about you? Hey! Don't move. Aren't you afraid of the wound opening?"

When Dr. Kanzaki saw Yuki Yu on the hospital bed, frowning and trying to lift up half of her body, he hurriedly went to help her. Unexpectedly, a shadow emerged from the door behind him, and he quickly helped her with his quick eyes and hands.

"You know you're hurt, right? Lie down."

"Please, doctor, I have a reason that I need to know. Please tell me. I won't publicize it."

Kanzaki raised his eyes and looked at Saaki Aoga who ran in carrying something, without saying anything. Yukiyo mistook him for being a hindrance and quickly grabbed Saaki Aoga's arm, "He won't say anything either, I promise you, If he says a word, he will be thrown out from the third floor, so please be sure..."

Really cruel.

Saaki Aohe didn't know why, and the corners of his mouth trembled. Did he provoke her?

Kanzaki raised his hand, and the dial on his wrist pointed to "1", which meant that there was still ten minutes of rest time left, which was enough.

"Listen carefully, all I know is what I heard from other people's mouths. Whether it is true or not cannot be tested. Even so, I am still not allowed to say it out."

"I see."

Xueyou nodded seriously.

"The child named Isamu Nakagawa is a person who has lost a deep bond.

"My parents died in the war many years ago, and he was adopted by his and her friends during their lifetime. But soon after, the ninja couple also sacrificed to control the out-of-control Kyuubi, leaving an orphan girl behind. The orphan girl's family has been ninjas for generations, and only Her parents survived, but she lost her parents and was helpless. As an adopted son, he gave up the help provided by his relatives who married into another country and voluntarily took on the responsibility of taking care of the orphan. The two of them depend on each other to this day.

"The orphan girl had a resistance to ninjas because of the tragedy in her family. She was talented but did not want to become a ninja, so she gave up halfway in the ninja school. In order to protect the girl, the boy chose to graduate and become a ninja.

"But a few days ago, an accident occurred during the Chuunin exam. The orphan girl whom the boy originally rescued at the risk of his life returned to the battlefield for unknown reasons and was discovered by Sunagakure..."

Subtle mistake.

"With extremely cruel means——

"killed."

"Based on the on-site analysis, it is said that Sunagakure was looking for something. The orphan girl's pockets were searched, and she might have been killed because she did not get the result.

"The boy who woke up didn't know about the orphan girl's death. He was glad that he survived while looking for her everywhere. How can I put it... He was just as restless as you. He slipped out when the doctor wasn't paying attention. He obviously shouldn't have stood up. No. He should be walking, but he still supports himself and searches around.”

"It's been a day and I still can't find (her). 』

"There should be a limit to where we go, hide and seek or something." 』

"Even though I know it's my fault... I've been told to "protect my body" many times, but it still falls on deaf ears. 』

“I’ll definitely pay attention next time. 』

"So please forgive me this time, okay?" If I find it, I will definitely apologize and reflect on myself. 』

"It's getting dark again. Come out quickly." 』

what……

"On the day of counting the bodies, he accidentally looked for them."

Have you seen the roll call? Or a corpse?

Now that we have the answer, it doesn't matter anymore.

Sasaki Aoga felt the hands holding his arms drooping weakly. He observed the girl's reaction and found that her eyes were frozen and her body was motionless.

The sky outside the window could no longer remain gloomy. The light rain turned into heavy rain, and the sound of falling rain could be heard.

Naruto stood in the silent crowd, looking at the colorless photos not far away surrounded by flowers in a sea of ​​flowers. His eyes stayed on the photo in the center for a long time, and then he looked at Konohamaru who kept covering his face and crying. Although he was much older and taller than him, there was still some sadness in his heart that could not be resolved.

His chest felt tight and his thoughts were confused. He couldn't resolve them, so he had no choice but to speak to Iruka, who was silent beside him.

"Iruka-sensei, why can people risk their lives for others?" 』

After experiencing the battle with Gaara, he was almost exhausted and still crawling in the direction of Gaara - he had people to protect, and he must win no matter what he did - he only thought so at the time, but now facing death, he Suddenly I couldn't figure it out.

Iruka-sensei gave the answer without hesitation.

"People will die alone and disappear. The past and present life, as well as the future, will disappear together. Many people die in missions or wars." It's surprisingly simple, these dead people also had dreams and goals. However, no matter who they are, they will have things they cherish, such as parents, brothers, friends and lovers, people who are important to them, who trust each other and help each other. 』

Saaki Aoga looked at Yuki Yu who didn't move for a long time, then gently shook her body, "Hello?"

"..."

"Hey, please say something, give me an answer, give me an answer."

"..."

Xueyou looked at him blankly, his mouth opened and closed after being shaken several times.

"I actually... told her to run away while she was defenseless. It was obvious that she had no abilities, and I was obviously aware that the ninja's attention turned to the two of them, but I still made a big mistake."

‘I asked her to run away with him and let them die. ’

"..." Saaki Qinghe's beautiful face also became distorted. "Such a thing? No wonder the name sounds so familiar. It turns out the doctor was talking about the person you saved."

"Did you save Isamu Nakagawa?"

The doctor at the door also raised his eyebrows and asked questions. He rolled his eyes and recalled the situation at that time - so, what he saw at that time was...

No wonder.

"I didn't save anyone."

'What the hell did I do? '

"From the moment you were born, you have been bound to your loved ones, and as time goes by, this red thread will become thicker and stronger. 』

"I have to say it's really deplorable."

"doctor?!"

Kanzaki ignored Saaki Aoga's reminder and expressed his own opinion.

The guy who rescued people was depressed because of his misjudgment. He really shouldn't have been. The reprimand for disobedience was over. Now there was still some time and he could still do the extra things.

If you don't care, this kind of weak character will only cycle through regrets, and you will have countless regrets when faced with greater sorrow in the future.

"You are too harsh on yourself. It's not that you saved nothing. You are enough to be called a savior. Faced with this situation, you should raise your head and tell the person who is out of control like a ghost to live well."

"I have no face to see him. He has lost the most important person. I actually thought that girl was prepared... No, no one will be prepared in the face of death..."

"No, it's not. That girl is prepared. Even if she meets someone else - no, even if she doesn't meet a ninja, I believe she will run back to save people."

"How can you be so sure?" Saaki Qinghe asked doubtfully.

"Should I say I was lucky...? After they moved my snow friend, I went to the east to investigate, and found Isamu Nakagawa there. In order to search for the living person, we divided the work and cooperated. My colleague was responsible for treating him, and I ran nearby to continue the search. There is a very special corpse of a girl. It looks to be about the same age as Isamu Nakagawa. She died with a smile. However, the corpse is not under my jurisdiction. A ninja will be responsible for collecting it later. If you want to confirm, wait until I find time to get it. Just come to the list and recognize the person with you."

"This……"

Iruka looked at the photo of the Sandaime's body, his voice was gentle and firm, "This makes no sense. People with such a red line will definitely do this again, because it is very important." 』

"For her, Isamu Nakagawa is a being beyond life. You see, the bonds of the past are there."

"I can understand it, but..."

"But when the enemy attacked, she protected him with her body and still looked scared."

"Who is not afraid of death?"

Dr. Kanzaki asked rhetorically.

Xueyou was speechless.

Naruto's ears were filled with the sound of rain and Konohamaru's cries. He said, "Death is really painful." 』

"The Third Hokage's death was not in vain. He left important things to people. One day, you will understand." 』

"But." Kanzaki opened the cigarette case again and took out a cigarette, "Nakagawa's death was not in vain. She saved Yong, and she saved the people she cherished. After Yong's mother gave birth to Yong, she gave him life again. 'Equivalent thing."

"However," Kanzaki lit a fire with a lighter and took a breath, "it takes courage to survive with what you have sacrificed your life for. As a person who has experienced things, you have to take responsibility. When you are able to take action, you can complete these things. Tell Yong completely. As for what happens to him in the future, it is his choice."

"It's just that he will probably have to be sedated in the past week." Kanzaki held a cigarette in his mouth and squinted at his watch. There was still one minute left before his rest time was over.

"You can't smoke indoors. I'm leaving. I really have to leave now, otherwise I'll waste another one."

The moment the door closed.

The sound of rain outside gradually stopped.

"Um! I also feel I can understand this. 』

Naruto's question was answered, and his high-spirited voice was mixed with clarity. Konohamaru also stopped crying in comfort, the dark clouds dispersed, and the sunny day returned.

Yukiyo rubbed his temples and lay down on the hospital bed again. Saaki Aoga sat on a chair and took a nap, the dark circles under his eyes showing exhaustion.

The snow friend looked at the blue sky for a long time and fell asleep unconsciously.

There were birds chirping outside the window, and the morning sun shone in.
