[Naruto] Raiders of large dogs

Although the stray cats raised at home often did some unexpected behaviors, they were still within his acceptable range, but the situation at this moment made Kakashi feel weird.

Seeing the girl calmly gesticulating with Kunai towards her, Kakashi asked nervously, "Drink blood?"

Realizing that she didn't have a chance to explain, Xue finally reacted: "Ah, I'm sorry, I haven't explained yet. In fact, the experimental data of Orochimaru that I got before contains the research part of the special physique of the Uzumaki clan. found new possibilities for blood."

"It seems that my blood has the effect of restoring Chakra to others a little bit, although it can't reach the level of the Uzumaki Clan." Xue single-handed Kunai with a knife, thinking about where to cut the knife and revealed A cute expression that doesn't match this scene, "Giving this blood to the teacher can properly relieve the sequelae caused by Sharingan, which is what I call the secret weapon."

"I also thought about putting it in a bottle and bringing it to the teacher, but the effect of being out of the body for a long time decreases quickly, so I can only feel wronged by the teacher and drink fresh ones directly."

"Fresh" blood sounds so awkward.Kakashi stared helplessly at Dead Fish Eyes and didn't know where to complain. Even if she became the team leader, she was still the girl who lacked a "common sense" nerve.

"If you're going to leave the day after tomorrow, it's better for the teacher to recover as much as possible, but I don't know how far I can recover."

After repeated comparisons, Yuki finally found a starting point, and before Kakashi could stop her, she took Kunai in her mouth and quickly slashed at her right wrist.

Seeing the girl's skilled bloodletting process, Kakashi didn't know whether to help stop the bleeding first or criticize first.

Passing the bloody wrist to Kakashi, Yuki naturally urged the silver-haired Shinobu to enjoy it as if she was holding a delicious fruit in her hand.

"If the teacher doesn't hurry up, the quilt will be dirty."

It seems that the girl has long been accustomed to treating her own blood as an ordinary object, without any psychological burden.On the contrary, Kakashi watched the liquid gradually flowing out, not knowing how to react, knowing that the problem was not drinking blood.

Maybe we have to find a way to get rid of the habit of feral cats self-mutilation at every turn.

Holding up his slender wrists hesitantly, Kakashi hesitantly removed his mask, covered his mouth with dark scarred skin, and sucked warm blood carefully, like a devout believer.

There are no bystanders in the strange ward, and there will be no nurses patrolling the ward to disturb the two of them alone. Like a still black silhouette, the gloomy wind and sand are the best curtain, hanging down the gauze curtain to cover the inexplicable and beautiful scene at this moment, preventing the light Destroy this ambiguous atmosphere.

The rusty taste mixed with the salty taste diffuses in the mouth, but unexpectedly there is no repulsive feeling, and the aftertaste seems to have a little sweetness of candy.Maybe the girl had a candy in her mouth before she came, Kakashi thought, maybe it was strawberry flavored.

As the heat slid into the throat, the exhausted body gradually regained its vitality like a desert that has been exposed to nectar for a long time.

"Hmm..." There was a strange touch on the wrist that I had never felt before. The slight itchiness stimulated the brain like an electric current. It was different from ordinary contact. The pain of the wound was covered by unspeakable heat. Xue didn't realize it. There was a strange muffled sound.

This unfamiliar voice was soft and gripping, like a cat's paws scratching his heart, and both of them couldn't help being surprised.

"Holding, I'm sorry, I haven't bled other people directly like this, it's not uncomfortable, teacher, please don't worry about it." Xue quickly explained her abnormality, and for some reason felt embarrassed by Fang Cai's voice.

How bad it was.

Kakashi secretly raised his eyes to look at the girl who was pursing her lower lip to keep herself from making a sound. The girl who was blushing because of shyness couldn't help but have the idea of ​​teasing the kitten.

Gently biting the edge of the wound on his wrist with his teeth, the tip of his tongue brushed over the skin that was not smooth because of the old wounds, and licked the bloodstains that had begun to scab. The silver-haired Kamichi seemed to have forgotten that he was just trying to play a little prank Down, immersed in it unconsciously.

The girl in her hand could feel a sudden cleverness, almost reflexively pulling back her right hand, but she held back her right hand in an instant, her face was so red that it was about to burn, she could only bite her lower lip tightly, turning her head and not daring to look at Kakashi.

It may be too early for her to play grown-up jokes.

Aware of this problem, the terrible adult raised his head, smiled and apologized without sincerity: "I'm sorry, because it's too delicious and I don't want to waste it."

"What, what?" Yuki felt her face was so hot that it was about to explode. This was a joke she often heard in unscrupulous shops when she was in contact with Jiraiya.Compared with the cheeky ninja, the inexperienced girl has no resistance to this kind of joke, and almost jumps out of bed and runs away.

Hastily snapping back the girl's shoulders that had turned away from the door, Kakashi also knew that he had overdone it, and changed the subject with a smile on his face: "Speaking of which, what happened to Naruto and the others?"

"...Sakura's injuries are relatively serious, but she has basically recovered. The others have no major problems. After Gaara's examination, it has been confirmed that there is no serious problem." Yuki twisted her head and said, "Also, there will be a meeting of Chiyo-sama tomorrow. funeral."

Speaking of this, Xue couldn't help but paused for a moment. She didn't expect that the old man who always confronted her would choose such a destination in the end.When everyone grieved over the dead body of Gaara, who had been deprived of the tailed beast, Chiyo did not hesitate to choose to revive the new hope of Sand Hidden Village at the cost of vitality.

It's like the dead leaves that fell off the branches after completing the task, turned into the nutrients of the tree, nourished the new shoots to thrive, and completed a lifetime.

"Is that so? Then you have to hurry up and go to participate." I don't know if it's because of the blood, Kakashi was gradually shrouded in drowsiness, and his voice became weak.

"Is teacher sleepy? The blood has a little calming effect, which is a sign of slow recovery. Let's rest first." Xue helped Kakashi lie down and covered himself with the quilt.

Listening to the smooth breathing of the silver-haired Shinobu, Yuki sat on the edge of the bed staring at the face that had put on the mask again and was stunned.Because of the gloomy weather, even a girl like a puppet couldn't help being sentimental.

Just like yesterday, such a girl could not understand Chiyo's way of dying for others. The only way to live is the truth of the world. Once she dies, the world will end.

However, now he has found a new goal. If this body is going to decay one day, it must be the end point he chooses.

Just like the boy Kirigakure, the third generation, the team members and Chiyo-sama chose the final stage with their own will, just like the fireworks seen at the festival, which only bloomed for a moment, gorgeous and dazzling.

Xue stretched out her right hand and brushed aside the silver hair that covered the sleeping man's eyes, as if talking to herself, or whispering as if she wanted to talk to the other party.

"Although the teacher wants me to protect myself, if I have to choose, I will be the sharpest sword and the strongest shield for the teacher, because this is what I expect most..."

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

The dusty weather has passed, and there are cold tombstones lined up under the bleak rock wall, which is the final destination of ninjas who unfortunately lost their lives or were lucky enough to return to their homeland.

Konoha and his party and several representatives of Sand Shinobi greeted each other before farewell in the cemetery.Compared to the lively conversation between Naruto and Gaara, Yuki discussed mission details with Temari and Kankuro in an unobtrusive corner.

"Then, please send the status of this mission to Konoha within a week, and we will sort out the relevant information." Xue habitually wanted to put on her mask, but found that her face was not covered at the moment, so she had to put her hand He lifted it up and put it down again, "Also, thank you for lending me the spare clothes."

"You're welcome, and finally let me see your true face, it's a good deal." Temari said with a smile, waving his hands.

"It's really unexpected that the face under that mask is like this." Kankuro touched his head and sighed, it was the first time he saw the face of this red ghost after working together for several years.During the rescue operation in the Kingdom of Stone, the girl was so tightly protected by Kakashi that she couldn't see her face at all.

"Do you think it should be more vicious?" Snow teased herself indifferently with a straight face.

"Ah, after Kankuro was brought down by you, he secretly vented his hatred behind his back and said that there must be a female orangutan under the mask."

"It's been so long, don't make fun of it anymore, please forgive me."

The three of them handed over easily, and Naruto and Gaara at the side also said their final goodbyes. After the two teams waved their hands, Konoha and his party embarked on the return journey.

Although he regained some physical strength, Kakashi still couldn't move quickly, and the group walked on the route leisurely as if admiring the desert scenery.

"……Um……"

"What's the matter? Naruto?" Sensing that Naruto looked at her from time to time but hesitated to speak, Xue who was arranging her equipment looked at him strangely.

"Eh? You were discovered?" Naruto opened his mouth wide in surprise, and was immediately knocked on the head by Sakura at the side.

"Idiot, that's too obvious for you!"

Yuki tightened her belt a bit, and looked at Naruto for no reason, Temari's clothes still didn't fit well, but it gave people a different and fresh impression.

"Yeah, that's right... Xiaoxue, are your hands alright?" Naruto seemed a little discouraged as he grabbed the blond hair that exploded everywhere, "I'm really sorry before."

Xue raised her left hand, which had been bandaged off, and moved it a little, indicating that she didn't care: "Hand is almost healed, there is no problem with basic fighting, and the guard work can continue."

After Yuki and Kakashi were brought back to the infirmary of Hidden Sand Village, Sakura, the only medical ninja in the team, beat Naruto violently after hearing what had happened, and then scolded the girl bloody.The strategic spirit of Naruto and Snow, brothers and sisters, was highly unified at this moment. After apologizing to each other, they soon got along happily as before.

"No, that's not the problem!" Naruto leaned closer to Xue and said in a low voice nervously, "Well, don't tell others that you are protecting me, okay? It's too bad for a girl to protect me!"

Although Xue was surprised by Naruto's persistence, she still tilted her head and said, "Is that all? No problem."

"Ah, really, Xiaoxue, don't spoil him too much, the idiot won't grow up unless he is taught a lesson!" Xiao Ying shouted bitterly.

Looking at the noisy students in front of him, Kakashi seemed to be very happy with his crescent eyes, and his slow pace became lighter.

"I didn't expect that Xiaoxue to be Anbu." The members of the Akai class were still a little hard to accept after knowing the identity of a girl who had always been elusive. loss."

"How can you say such unambitious words? Tiantian! Don't you feel like challenging her even more!" Xiao Li's eyes widened and he was eager to try.

"..." Ning Ci held his forehead and remained silent helplessly.

After completing the task, the Konoha ninjas have lost their sense of tension and regained their youthful spirit and vitality. The sound of laughter echoed over the empty desert.

Taking advantage of the gap between other people's communication, Yuki slowly walked up to Kakashi and asked, "Teacher, how is your recovery?"

"Oh, although I can barely walk, it's still not good, I'm getting old."

"This speed is really slow. My hand is basically healed. Teacher, do you want to see it after a long time..." Xue said as she curled her hands, her eager expression could no longer be concealed.

"No need! Thank you very much!" In front of so many juniors, if he was picked up by a girl, he would really lose face.Thinking of this, Kakashi waved his hands again and again, resolutely rejecting this suggestion.

"I agree too! Kakashi, your speed is too slow! You don't even know when you will be able to return to the village!" Kai, who was on the side, could no longer bear the tortoise's return speed, and became impatient before he finished speaking Kakashi, who hadn't reacted yet, rushed to the front.

"Speaking of Sakura, I wanted to ask before, but I always feel that Kakashi-sensei and Koyuki are too close?" Naruto quietly asked Sakura beside him, although his voice was not so small that he wouldn't be caught off guard. People around hear it.

"...You are an idiot, don't you understand that Kakashi-sensei went to rescue Koyuki like that before?" The pink-haired girl shook her head helplessly, lamenting that her teammates are all idiots who don't understand the style.

"Eh? What?" Xiao Li asked his teammates, shaking his head back and forth without knowing why.

"Boys are really stupid." Tiantian shrugged and reached a consensus with Sakura.

"Please don't get me involved..." Neji denied in a low voice, but no one heard the faint protest.

The innocent laughter of the teenagers drifted to the rear with the desert wind, while the girl walking at the end of the line concealed invisible thoughts in her eyes, and ran forward amidst the greetings of her friends.
