【Naruto】Hyuga Neji’s Beautiful Life
Chapter 177 The so-called war orphans (2)
The Iron Kingdom is a neutral country.
Compared with other non-neutral countries, it is much calmer.
Peace here is not in the traditional sense.
Only in comparison can it be called calm.
As a daimyo of the Kingdom of Iron, Mifune can be said to be conscientious of his duties, at least not as outrageous as those of the Kingdom of Grass.
The Country of Rain is just a small country. It is small, poor, and its geographical location can even be described as bad.
And such a country gave birth to the first generation leader of the Akatsuki organization.
Yahiko.
The Kingdom of Iron is not as glamorous as it seems on the surface. What should be done and what should not be done in private is somewhat involved.
Women, children, and the ghosts of warriors would haunt him again and again in his dreams.
The so-called neutrality is nothing more than a superficial balance.
As long as there is a country, it will be troubled by border unrest.
Naturally, the Kingdom of Iron is no exception.
As for what is wrong, everyone has his own definition in his heart. Even if this is not good, if you change that, it will be good again.
Mifune is obviously a decent person. It can be seen that the person who can record the Five Shadows Conference.
He was afraid, terribly afraid.
When he was still a young man, he was just a child of an ordinary samurai family - the Mifune family motto was that children should be sent out to be raised, and after enough experience, they would be brought back.
Often when a child grows up, the relationship between retainer and master becomes father and son in the blink of an eye.
When he was still a retainer, he had his first wife.
It's called Aju. She was a virtuous and virtuous model wife, and a rare virtuous wife in that era.
Although she was not chased by her husband for breaking a plate and jumped into a well to become an unjust ghost, she had to be displaced with her children because of the war in her early years.
By the time Mifune came down from the battlefield to look for his wife and children, he was already covered in bones.
What a crime.
The initiator of that war was his father.
Mifune's outstanding military exploits were recognized, and he returned home smoothly.
But Aju and his unborn child are not even qualified as "war orphans".
Even if he is reborn, there will be no better ending than Nagato.
He grieves day and night, consciously committing sins, but still living up to his sins.
Knowing that he met that woman while patrolling the border.
She has the same name as Aju, and even her smile is the same friendly and gentle one. Surrounding the woman are children with different looks.
"These children are all war orphans."
"Although I am just an ordinary peasant woman, my husband died a few years ago."
"But looking at these children reminds me of my unborn child."
Aju didn't know that the person in front of her was a famous figure from the Kingdom of Iron. She was born in the countryside and had never seen the world.
Moreover, she is a refugee from a neighboring country. According to the rules of the Iron Kingdom, they will be expelled without adult males.
"Mom! Sanzi has a fever again!"
Aju has five sons in total, but these three are the most special.
One son and two sons met by chance deep in an alley when they were begging for food.
According to Erzi, the child appeared out of thin air. It was just a small embryo at first, but it grew into the appearance of a six or seven-year-old child in just a few minutes.
He has a beautiful appearance, red lips and white teeth, long hair like ink, and even his eyes are black.
It's like the Ichimatsu doll from the folklore of the Iron Kingdom.
He has no memory and doesn't know his name, but he can speak and communicate normally.
There were only one son and two sons who witnessed it, so people in the alley naturally didn't believe it - he was either a lost young man from a wealthy family or an orphan who was displaced during the war.
Naturally, even though she looks good, she doesn't get a morsel of food because of it.
The first son and the second son did not tell Aju, but the news still spread like wildfire.
She firmly believed that this was the salvation given by God - the stillborn child came back to find his mother.
Although Mifune was visiting privately incognito that day, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that this man was either rich or noble.
It was already half a year after Mifune was adopted that she met Aju. The child's legendary experiences were told by Aju like a chat after tea. She was eager to get money or food from Mifune - I have stories, you have candles. . It's just such a relationship.
"I promised her that I would come to take her into the city on the first of next month."
Mifune told Naruto the key points and what he could say - even so, the story was bizarre enough.
"But three days ago, I went there as promised..."
"But I only saw children."
"Among the five sons, only the eldest second son and the youngest third son survived."
Fortunately, fortunately, the third son is still alive.
Not only Aju's salvation, but also his salvation.
Aju was humiliated to death and died unjustly.
At that time, he thought that even if there were hints from him, both overt and covert, the soldiers and refugees on the left and right sides of the border would not let her go easily.
"I killed her."
Mifune later figured out that Aju could adopt so many children, so she naturally had her own methods.
"It wouldn't be like this if I didn't commit to it, or just took it away."
At this time, Naruto also guessed the origin of Mifune's adoption of orphans. He clenched his fists and his voice trembled.
"Grandpa Mifune..."
Although he didn't understand the meaning of Mifune's words to him, he couldn't refuse to sympathize with him.
They have different experiences, but that's not enough to stop them from understanding each other.
"Naruto, I understood it from the first moment I saw you."
"You are someone special."
"It's different from us."
"You have the power to change the world."
Naturally, Mifune was thinking about his three sons. Just now, the servants had sent word that the situation had stabilized.
But all his worries about it are based on the four words Aju and redemption.
He is a selfish and cowardly person.
But he did too many things that he didn't dare to do.
"There was also a special one who came here three years ago."
"At that time he was still a rebel ninja of Konoha."
"You're different from him. That man doesn't want to leave his mark on this world."
"That's why he is like a passing cloud, fleeting."
Mifune roughly knew that the boy in front of him was either the Sixth Hokage or the Seventh Hokage.
The surrounding windows were closed tightly, and there were people waiting even in the corners.
A handful of ribs was handed into Naruto's hands.
It had become tattered, but the blade still shone with a cold light.
If Fujiwara Yusuke were present, he would naturally call him familiar.
It's a pity that since he's not here, he won't have this opportunity.
"This rib has a technique left behind by that person."
"When you are at your wits end, I will help you."
Needless to say, it should be the "sincerity" shown by Hyuga Neji when he made the deal with Mifune.
Mifune looked at the time and looked hesitant when he saw that the bath cards had not yet been turned over.
"Grandpa Mifune... don't worry, I won't let it come in handy!"
This rib must be very important to Mifune, but it is also the most straightforward admission from such a big man.
Only when all the dust settles - when the war subsides and people understand each other, can he have the face to return it.
"Having said that...actually, I have another unwelcome request..."
