Opening: Minato became my brother

"Yue Le... Yue Le..."

A hollow yet familiar voice came from the sky, suddenly sobering up Yue Le who was in a daze. He looked down again and saw his figure reflected on the water surface. At this moment, there was no trace of his other appearance.

The red hair, with a hint of crimson, seemed to be overflowing with blood, and the pupils were gloomy in the darkness. Under the water, figures seemed to appear one after another...

The bandits, officials of small countries, ninjas, and even innocent old people and children that they had killed were constantly dragging them down. Below them, there was a scarlet sea of ​​dead souls...

They kept shouting and cursing Yue Le. They tried to pull him down. Why, why did they kill them? Why, why didn't they even let the children go...

Why, why on earth...

Come on down... follow us... to hell...

"Yue Le!"

"Yue Le!"

"Yue Le!!!"

"..."

Familiar voices rang out from the air again, fighting against the wronged souls under the water. Along with these voices, rays of light suddenly appeared in this dark world, turning into ropes and spreading towards Yue Le.

As the sound in the air grew louder, Yue Le opened her eyes.

"Wake up, wake up!"

"Yuele is awake!"

"......"

“It’s so noisy…”

"Hiss, hiss..."

.........

"He fell asleep again!"

"Tsunade, what happened to Yuele?"

"Sarutobi! Nothing can happen to Yuele!"

"Danzo, calm down!"

.........

At the root, Yue Le's ward, he came here again...

Yue Le slept quietly in the nutrition cabin. As before, although he did not come here many times, it was definitely not a small number. Even this ward became Yue Le's exclusive ward.

Inside are high-intensity nutrition cabins and professional equipment that only he can use, ready for Yue Le to use at any time.

But this time, Yue Le, who has always had an excellent ability to absorb energy, can no longer absorb energy as quickly as before.

According to the previous situation and progress, Yuele can absorb a bottle of nutrient concentrate completely in three hours, but this time, a whole day has passed and it is still not completely absorbed, and even more than half of the bottle is left...

This would have been impossible in the past!

"Tsunade, what's wrong with Yue Le's body?" Danzo's face was gloomy and a little solemn. He didn't expect that Yue Le would have such a problem during this kind of mission. This shouldn't be right!

At this moment, he no longer had the composure of a Konoha Dark, and seemed to have turned into an ordinary old man who cared about his grandson. Yue Le, nothing can happen to you!

"...Now there is good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?" After re-examining Yue Le, Tsunade breathed a sigh of relief, her face regained its calm, and she even forced a somewhat far-fetched and inappropriate suspense.

After examining for so long, there was finally a good result that could be considered a good result. Tsunade could finally feel relieved.

"Don't keep us in suspense! Tell us how Yue Le is doing now!"

Danzo interrupted Tsunade somewhat rudely, but judging from the fact that Tsunade was still able to speak in a joking tone, Yuele's physical condition should have stabilized.

But he didn't want to hear this at this moment!

Tsunade glanced at Danzo and stopped keeping the secret: "The good news is that Yue Le's body has stabilized. In two days at most, he will be able to fully recover."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the news. However, Tsunade's next words made them feel heavy again.

"But the bad news is that we still don't know why Yue Le suddenly developed this abnormal condition. His body seemed to have developed some kind of resistance to the nutrient concentrate, which greatly reduced the absorption rate, and this is not a problem with the nutrient solution... I still need further examination and research to find the cause." Tsunade said with a frown.

Everyone looked at each other, their hearts filled with worry.

Over the next two days, Tsunade and her medical team conducted a comprehensive examination and analysis of Yuele. They carefully studied Yuele's physiological data, cell vitality, and the composition of the nutrient concentrate, trying to find a breakthrough.

In order to solve this problem, Tsunade decided to try to adjust the formula of the nutrient concentrate and combine it with some auxiliary treatment methods to help Yue Le's body re-adapt to the absorption of nutrients.

At the same time, they also conducted more in-depth observation and monitoring of Yue Le to ensure that there would be no other problems with his body during the recovery process.

But it hasn't gotten any better...

......

"Yuele's physical condition has inexplicably deteriorated without any signs. Even his heart can still beat at a high intensity and can still quickly squeeze out the potential of his body, but the mechanism of operation is no longer energy, but his vitality..."

"In other words, Yue Le is completely unable to accept the effects of the catalyst now. His physique cannot accept it, but..."

Another pause made Danzo's tightly frown deepen a little, with a few black lines and an unfriendly look. He was really angry!

"It's very strange. A scarlet snake pattern suddenly appeared on Yue Le's neck. The red snake held its tail and circled around Yue Le's neck. There was a faint breath of life on it. It was very strange. It was obviously not a living creature..."

......

At this moment, in a dark world, Yue Le quietly watched the red snake floating from the water. He felt a sense of familiarity and intimacy...

"You are..."

"Hiss~~~ My name is Fei, the self-devouring snake. At Lan's call, I was born from your flesh and blood. We signed a symbiotic contract. Contractor, hiss~~~ Please give me your guidance, hiss~~~"

"Fei... "

Gently stroking the red scales, looking into his eyes, the red-gold vertical pupils shone with luster. These eyes seemed like the teacher's...

With a slight smile, Yue Le did not feel uncomfortable with this. Even though he did not know why Fei was born in his flesh and blood, he did not care about it. His life experience did not seem to be that simple?

But so what, he was very happy in Konoha, with old man Danzo, teachers, sister Tsunade, Shizune, Minato, Kushina, Black Cat and others...

Yue Le didn't resist this kind of life. He had vaguely realized that his memory seemed to have been manipulated, but the feeling of closeness made Yue Le not disgusted. So be it, it's good for everyone, isn't it...

Thinking like this, suddenly, the day dawned...

..........

Yuele...woke up...

When he opened his eyes, his scarlet pupils were particularly conspicuous in the nutrition cabin, like two gorgeous rubies, emitting a unique and dazzling light.

His eyes fell on Jingyin who had been waiting outside the nutrition cabin. This girl was now leaning against the wall and fell asleep while sitting. Yuele's mouth curled up slightly, and there was indescribable tenderness in her eyes.

Just at this moment, the scarlet Ouroboros tattoo on Yue Le's neck began to gradually turn bright red.

As if it had life, it slowly swelled up, skin texture and scales slowly appeared, tearing Yue Le's skin bit by bit.

Because Fei once said that he was born from Yue Le's flesh and blood. This time, when he first came into the world, he naturally needed Yue Le's flesh and blood to nourish him...

They live and die together... This statement is not false...

Along with a slight tearing sound, the sound of flesh breaking was heard in the nutrition cabin, followed by a trickle of blood that flowed out like a spring, instantly dyeing the entire nutrition cabin red.

Then, the sound of flesh and blood being devoured began to be heard. It was like countless small insects gnawing at something, mixed with creepy biting sounds.

This is a necessary ritual, this is the prelude to birth. Yue Le’s contractor, Fei will use Yue Le’s flesh and blood as a breeding ground to forge his own bones, grow his own flesh and blood, and connect his own soul.

They share honor and disgrace...life and death...

"Yuele, this is Hai Lan's final gift to you. The Ninja World seems to be more powerful than you imagined. Is it the existence of the world's restraining force, or the change of emotions? My power is getting weaker and weaker. Fei will be the product of the compromise between the two worlds, and also the backup of the Ninja World... My child... Keep moving forward towards your anchor point..."

Unfortunately... no one heard these words. Only the light in Fei's red-gold eyes flashed for a moment, and then there was no other reaction...

"Uh-huh...???!!!."

"Yue Le!!!"

Jingyin, who was awakened by the strange sound coming from the nutrition cabin, just opened her eyes and witnessed this horrifying scene.

At this time, Yue Le had already woken up, and was looking at her with a gentle smile. He slowly stretched out his hand and gently pointed at the nutrient solution, as if to indicate something.

What made Jingyin even more frightened and panicked was that there was a huge red snake on Yuele's neck, biting his flesh madly!

But just as Jingyin screamed, she saw a surprising scene. The red snake raised its head and looked at her with its red-gold pupils. Its eyes were as gentle as Yue Le's.

With Wucuo in mind, he looked at Yuele again and put his index finger on the corner of his mouth. His body trembled for a moment. After manually pouring the concentrated nutrient solution into the nutrient cabin, he injected another one.

Feeling the rich energy injection, a hissing snake sound came from the nutrition cabin, like a moan.

Immediately, a violent storm swept in, and the blood scattered in the entire nutrition cabin rushed towards him, along with the nutritional energy in it.

Chichi——

Yue Le slowly stood up from the nutrition cabin, his whole body was wet, with strands of nutrient solution flowing down along the muscle lines of his body. He was only wearing a pair of loose trousers, with his red hair draped over his shoulders. He picked up the towel beside him and wiped his hands, then gently raised his hand and rubbed Jingyin's head.

Jingyin looked up blankly and glanced at Yuele. There were drops of water on his handsome face, his eyes were full of tenderness, he had a high nose bridge, broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and clear muscle lines on his body, but he was not like the others who had muscle lumps all over their bodies.

"Thanks for your hard work, Shizune."

The silvery moonlight poured into the ward. Minato, Kushina and others were out on missions these days, and even Black Cat was assigned a new mission after returning.

"Yuele, you!"

As she spoke, Jingyin's eyes kept wandering over Yuele's body, looking for the wound she had just seen, but she saw that there was no wound at all. There was only a red snake coiled around Yuele's neck, its red-gold vertical pupils just staring at her.

With the same gentleness as Yuele...

......

"So, you're saying that this red snake is a spiritual beast born from your flesh and blood, and will live and die with you?"

"And you gave him a large part of your physical strength?"

"He can absorb energy and feed it back to you?"

Listening to the people around him talking at the same time, Yue Le rubbed his eyebrows and nodded.

"Yes, that's about it, anyway..."

He lowered his head and gently touched Fei, who was curiously observing the surroundings, with a smile in his eyes.

"Hiss~ Fei, the Yuele Contractor."

"As expected of you, you're Orochimaru's disciple. Hahahaha."

Sarutobi Hiruzen watched this strange scene with great interest, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He stroked his beard with a smile in his eyes. Although he had no idea why Yue Le was in such a situation, judging from the current situation, it did not seem to be a terrible ending.

At least he is fine, and his fighting ability has not been affected too much. Yue Le said that this little red snake can absorb abilities and feed back to him, which is equivalent to a certain replacement of Yue Le's physique. I just don't know whether it has independent fighting ability for the time being...

After thinking for a moment, he took out his cigarette from the bag he was carrying and habitually took a couple of puffs to celebrate.

"Uh... hehe, no smoking, no smoking, just take it out and have a look, hahaha..."

With a somewhat awkward smile, under Tsunade's hostile gaze, Sarutobi Hiruzen naturally put down his pipe.

Sometimes he was a little scared of his own disciple.

There's nothing you can do. Tsunade is the best doctor in the ninja world, the princess of Konoha Village and the granddaughter of the first generation. Naturally, she has the confidence and capital.

"Cough cough..."

He coughed a few times, as if to ease the embarrassment, and looked at everyone.

"Alright, alright, hahahaha, to celebrate that Yue Le is safe and sound, and Orochimaru and Jiraiya have also sent messages saying that they will be back the day after tomorrow, I will treat everyone to a hot pot! Let's have a reunion!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen patted his chest and smiled, while Danzo, who had been standing aside with a gloomy face these days, finally looked a little better.

However, his eyes always stayed on Fei. He was always skeptical about this red snake whose origin was a mystery...

This snake... No, I need to go back and check the information...

The old man made up his mind...

"Yuele, are you really okay?"

"It's okay, Grandpa, don't worry."

"Sigh~~~"

Yue Le and Fei turned around at the same time and looked at Danzo, with the same tenderness in their eyes.

This glance made Danzo stunned for a moment, and then he smiled helplessly. He didn't know when it started, but the smile on his face seemed much more natural. At least Tsunade would not show disgusted expression when she saw him.

He is already this old, but he is still looked down upon by the younger generation. It is really embarrassing...
