Brother, you are my jade - Asma of Hokage

"Sure enough, the difference in strength is too big..." Ayi threw out this sentence casually, and Youyingfen# was in front of him as a cover, but the main body suddenly ran towards the outside of the field...

"When the difference in strength between the enemy and ourselves is too great, we need to retreat first to avoid unnecessary casualties." A Yi recalled the experience he learned in school, and what he is doing now is retreating.

——In the face of an enemy far stronger than yourself, don't you choose to retreat first instead of recklessly?Great, but this is the arena, where are you going to retreat?

Kakashi was thinking about this, but Ayi had already run out of the range of the field, and according to the rules of the game, if he left the range of the field, he would lose...

"I racked my brains and couldn't think of a breakthrough to defeat you. It seems that this is my current limit - Mr. Kakashi, I lost!" After finishing speaking, A Yi lowered his head and bowed to admit defeat.

"The competition is over!" Seeing this scene, the school teacher announced the end of the competition.

"Eh—?!" The surrounding crowd, especially the students and civilians, all stared or opened their mouths. They played so well just now, why did they suddenly run out and admit defeat?They were puzzled by A Yi's actions, and there was a lot of discussion. Some even called him a coward, and the crowd quickly became noisy.

The Third Hokage looked at the crowd on the field, and said: "Everyone, please be quiet, and please listen to this old man."

As soon as the third Hokage finished speaking, the crowd gradually quieted down.

"Everyone, if you think about it this way, and regard the duel with Kakashi as the task assigned to Sarutobi, then as a ninja, you really need to give priority to completing the task. However, as you can see just now, the current Sarutobi There is an obvious gap between Fei Yi and Kakashi's strength, and when the opponent's strength is far stronger than his own, if he rushes forward blindly, not only will the mission fail, but he may even sacrifice his life in vain... In this case, first evacuate temporarily, not only to preserve your own combat power, but also to think about the next battle plan. It is of course the most appropriate way to complete the task-so, Sarutobi just chose to evacuate. The most correct choice!"

"In short, this is a very exciting competition. I hope that all the students of the ninja school present will remember this competition and learn from their experience-this will be a valuable experience for your future ninja journey. and wealth!"

After hearing Sandai Hokage's words, the crowd who were puzzled and even cursed immediately cheered, they have fully approved of A Yi's performance today.

The Third Hokage turned to Kakashi and A Tsubasa: "Both of you have worked hard. As for whether Sarutobi Tsubasa passed the examination and whether he was allowed to graduate early, it is up to Kakashi to judge."

Tsubasa waited nervously for Kakashi's judgment on him.

"Well... I think that Ah Wing not only masters ninjutsu very well, but also can accurately deal with various situations in the battle-whether it is a frontal battle, or dealing with sneak attacks, injuries, and the disparity in strength between the enemy and us, he can Make accurate judgments. Now, even if he is placed among the Chunin, he is outstanding—so, I think he is qualified!"

After hearing these words, Ah Yi finally yelled excitedly, and his slightly innocent smile reflected how happy he is now.The surrounding crowd also applauded and celebrated, as if they were celebrating A Yi's becoming a ninja together.

While being happy, Ah Yi did not forget to share the good news with his brother Asma in his heart—even if Asma is far away and doesn’t know about it, it doesn’t matter:

"Brother Asma, from today onwards, I am also a ninja!"

The next day, in Hokage's office, three generations of Hokage, Kakashi, Red, and A Yi who had just become a ninja.

"Congratulations, A Yi, from now on, you will officially become a sub-nin in Konoha Village!" The Third Hokage said kindly to A Yi.

"Thank you, Grandpa Hokage. Thank you, Kakashi-senpai." A wing took Konoha's forehead guard from Kakashi in front of him with both hands, bowed to the third Hokage and Kakashi each, and then The forehead was worn on his head, and his smiling face was like the dazzling sunshine.

"Just became a ninja, so you stopped calling me Sensei and called me Senior? The young man has a sense of being a ninja." After speaking, he was about to touch A Yi's head to tease him, but A Yi avoided it.

"Only Brother Asma can touch my head, and no one else including Kakashi-senpai!" Ayi pouted and protested with a childish temper.

"Hey, I just praised you, and you've revealed your true colors. Are you really a half-grown child? Hehehe..." The atmosphere in the room was very relaxed and happy.

"Congratulations, A Yi." Hong, who was also in the office, also smiled and congratulated A Yi for becoming a ninja.

"Thank you, Sister Hong."

Just like this, a few people said a few jokes, A Yi and Hong left the Hokage office together, while Kakashi and the third Hokage were still chatting inside.

"Hokage-sama, did you hear Ayi calling you 'Grandpa Hokage' just now? But didn't he recognize Asma as his elder brother? Then logically, he should call you father, right..."

"Oh, that brat, although he recognized Asma as his elder brother, he never recognized me as his father," Third Hokage complained with some amusement, "Besides, how old is the difference between me and him? My father, I would feel awkward..."

"Hehehe. But, does he really only recognize Asma as his only family member in his heart?" Kakashi suddenly felt a little worried, "After all these years, is Asma still so important to him? ? This is not necessarily a good thing for a ninja..."

"It is true, but after all he is only 10 years old, and there is still a lot of time for him to slowly change in the future."

"hope so…"

Probably because after becoming a ninja, he had the opportunity to go out and practice through missions, and A Yi's strength has improved more rapidly than when he was in school.Leaving aside the fight with Kakashi at the beginning, let Kakashi judge that A Yi has the strength equivalent to an excellent Chunin, and after nearly a year of growth and experience, A Yi also welcomes himself The Chunin Exam——

As everyone expected, without any suspense, A Yi defeated all competitors with an overwhelming advantage, and became the Chunin with the No.1 score.

"Kakashi-senpai, I'm a Chunin from today onwards, would you like to give me some rewards?... Uncle Yile, give me a bowl of ramen too!" In the Yile Noodle Restaurant, Ah in a Chunin uniform Tsubasa caught Kakashi who was eating ramen, sat down and ordered a bowl himself.

"Oh... I've never given a gift to any junior before. Besides, there is no suspense about you becoming a Chunin this time, so I didn't take it to heart..."

"Cut, what a disappointment." Ah Yi deliberately pretended to be unhappy, but in fact, he finally became a Chunin, how could he be extremely unhappy today?

"You kid, you have become more and more carefree this year as a ninja. When talking to seniors, you don't use honorifics or anything."

"..." Ah Yi didn't answer, thinking that it was indeed the case.He touched his head in embarrassment. He seemed to have changed a lot in the past year.However, the yearning for that person in my heart has never changed.

"Ayi, your ramen is ready." Uncle Yile handed the ramen to Ayi.

"Thank you, Uncle!" After speaking, Ayi wolfed down his food, his appetite greatly increased in a happy mood, completely disregarding his own image, watching Kakashi and Ichiraku blushing.

"I'm full!" A Yi slapped the meal money on the table, "Kakashi-senpai, I have to leave beforehand, you eat slowly, bye!"

"This kid, A Yi, has really changed a lot in the past year. He used to be very reserved and a little shy, but now he seems to be more and more confident." Yi Le also sighed, A Yi these few days Nian often comes to his place to eat noodles, and he is considered a regular customer.

"yes…"

In the evening, Ah Yi returned home, turned on the lights as usual, took off the bandages on his eyes and washed his face well, and immediately felt refreshed.Then, he went to the yard and tried to open his eyes to look at the sky—the moonlight and starlight would not hurt his eyes that were afraid of strong light, although the image he could see was only gray and dim.

It's just that he suddenly thought of something, and his face sank again...

"During the Chunin exam, the daimyo came to watch the battle, but Brother Asma, who is the daimyo's personal guard, didn't come... I heard that this time the daimyo came to watch the battle, and not all the members of the 'Guardian Ninja Twelve' came. , Brother Asma is also one of the people left behind - I finally had the opportunity to meet Brother Asma, but I missed it like this... I really feel reconciled..."

"In short-brother Asma, I'm a Chunin now..." A Yi shook his head, let go of his heart, and sent his message to Asma in the distance along with the night, and at the same time I prayed day after day, day after day, day after day, cold and hot: "Brother Asma, you must come back quickly and safely."

It's just that things are often not always so ideal-just like this, after a lapse of another year, Konoha Village received news that the daimyo's personal guards "Twelve Guardian Ninja Warriors" had a civil strife, and several people were killed or killed.

"What are you talking about!? Civil turmoil? Casualties? How is Brother Asma doing? Tell me quickly! You, you are talking!" A Yi, who happened to be in Hokage's office, heard the report from Anbu, and raised his head His collar, shaking him anxiously.

"I-I'm sorry, because the daimyo has been blocking the news over there, I, we only have some very scattered information...and, I don't know the specific situation." Anbu seemed to be frightened by A Yi, and the voice of the answer Also trembling.

"Ayi, calm down! Let her go!" Said the Third Hokage, of course he couldn't wait to know about his son's safety, the sweat on his forehead was proof, but as Hokage, he had to calm down immediately, He said to the Anbu: "Understood, you should step back first."

Darkness just left.

A Yi stood with his head bowed. With a pale face, his cheeks and back were quickly drenched in cold sweat. His whole body was trembling uncontrollably, and he almost fell down, as if all his hopes and beliefs were on the verge of collapsing.

The author has something to say: With the duel between Kakashi and A Yi, there is no need to repeat the fight in the middle ninja exam - try to reduce the plot during the period when Uncle Asma is away~ ~~ The next chapter is Extra Story 2.

☆, extra chapter 2 pairs of jade

The author has something to say: This chapter is another episode, Uncle Asma No.1 is called the perspective.

Because it is No.1 title, please read this chapter with Uncle Asma’s voice, the effect will be better~~~=3=

For a while now, I've been overwhelmed with joy.

Not for anything else, just because of the news that A Yi was promoted to Chunin.

Because daimyo and Konoha have always had great differences and estrangements, they blocked each other's news. Unless the information of the two sides was passed on publicly by special letters, it would often take a long time for the rest of the gossip to reach the other party—maybe It has been a long time since the news that I became the 'Guardian Ninja Twelve' reached Konoha, right?Only this time, the daimyo-sama came back after watching the Chunin exams, and excitedly talked about A Yi’s outstanding performance. He didn’t shy away from rules such as “blocking news” at all, but happily shared this joy with us.

This time the daimyo went to watch the Chunin Exam held by Konoha, but the personal guard "Twelve Guardians of the Ninja" only brought a few people. Unfortunately, I was not among them, so I missed the wonderful farewell with Ayi and Hong A chance to meet again.Just when I was so annoyed, the returning daimyo brought me the great news of the day, sweeping away my previous unhappiness.

Subconsciously touched the beard that I have grown over the years, it turns out that A Yi and I haven't seen each other for almost 5 years...

Before I left, he was just a little kid, and now he has grown up so much, and now he has even become a Chunin... He must be working hard, but I can't help him with anything - I suddenly feel very Blaming himself, he hammered the ground angrily.

At this time, Di Lu beside me put his right hand on my shoulder and said a meaningful sentence to me:

"Asma, you seem to have always treated him like a child..."

Hearing what he said, I immediately understood.Yeah, whenever I mention him it's always stories about him when he was a kid.In my impression, Ayi will always be the little kid who haunts me all day long and makes me feel helpless but very kind. Now that 5 years have passed, it is enough for a 6-year-old child to grow into a calm boy Already——A Yi is now able to take charge of his own work, and he should be very proud of being so good, and can't wait to show me his growth over the years—so, not only can I not blame myself for not being able to No way to take care of him, but also cheer up to welcome him when he grows up—although this time I missed the opportunity to meet him, but there will always be a time to meet him.

However, if I want to accept Ah Yi who has changed so much all at once, I still need to make some psychological preparations in advance... Ha ha.

Thinking of this, my thoughts returned to Lu Lu beside me.

He once said to me: "Since you came here, I always feel that as long as I'm with you, I won't feel lonely... Whether it's happy or sad, we can be honest with each other... Maybe, this is what God has decided. It's because of fate."

This is indeed the case. In the five years since I came to daimyo's side, I have met so many people, but even among the companions of the "Twelve Guardians of Ninja", I am afraid that Ji Lu is the only one who can be called a "good friend".

And with the other ten companions of the "Twelve Guardians of Ninja", it seems that they can only be called like-minded.

However, this kind of "like-mindedness" seems to be becoming less and less reliable.

We "Guardian Ninja Twelve", the 12 people should work together to protect the safety of the daimyo, but I don't know when, our thoughts have a big difference.Although the discord has existed for a long time, on this day, Kazuma and I, who are also one of the "Twelve Guardians of Ninja", finally had an unprecedented fierce quarrel:

"The Land of Fire doesn't need two Jade! The only Jade we need to protect is Daimyo-sama! What kind of shit Hokage, he should have disappeared long ago!"

He Ma's remarks made me angry!I think: Whether it is Naruto or a daimyo, they are all 'jades' that we need to protect!How could Kazuma deny the meaning of Hokage's existence in such a tone! ?Moreover, the words he said later made me completely unbearable:

"You were originally from Konoha, so you must have a strong feeling for your village—but if I say that not only Hokage, but also Konoha, don't need to exist, what would you think? Hmph A village like Konoha should have been destroyed a long time ago!"

Hearing what he said, I finally broke out in a fit of rage and drew my weapon.He didn't give in to the horse, and took out his claws.We rushed to each other to fight to the death - this is not a sparring like in the past, but a fight to the death!Both he and I had no time to consider our self-consciousness as companions, but fought with the consciousness of killing each other, as if we wanted to completely release the disagreement accumulated over the past few days...

Di Lu, who just arrived at the side, tried to persuade us in a panic, but he couldn't intervene, so he could only worry on the sidelines.

It wasn't until more companions arrived that they worked together to separate the two of us.But we still glared at each other and struggled, refusing to give in at all.

Until Di Lu suddenly raised his voice and roared angrily: Enough is enough for both of you!Go back and think about it!

Even the gentle Lu Lu lost his temper, and Ma and I finally stopped struggling, and were escorted back to our respective resting places by several partners.

When I returned to the rest place, I remembered the remarks I had made with Ma before, and my anger came up again.

Lu Lu calmly persuaded me from the side: "Asma...do you know what it means if this continues?...It is because everyone's ideas have such a big difference that they will quarrel with each other! And every time The quarrel was fierce, and this time they actually started fighting! If this continues—”

I suddenly understood the meaning of Di Lu's words.Will the "Twelve Guardians of the Ninja Guardians" who have always been in harmony gradually become enemies who turn against each other?

In fact, I also know that the six of them, led by He Ma, seem to be secretly planning something.

——They may really plan to do "that thing"!

As I thought about it, I became more and more uneasy.Faced with this sudden sense of crisis, I subconsciously touched the pendant that A Yi gave me.

Has it been another year since A Yi became a Chunin?Ah Yi is already 12 years old, I really want to meet him, and Hong, they have been waiting for me to go back... But, if something really happens this time, I... can still see him are they?

But the current situation makes it almost impossible for me to take care of my children.Not long after, as Ji Lu and I feared, six of the "Twelve Guardian Ninjas" headed by Kazuma launched a coup. "Jade": Naruto.

And the remaining six people, including me and Dilu, as well as Dongmao, Xidu, Nanwu, and Beizi, naturally won't sit still.We informed the daimyo of the specific situation. After being shocked, daimyo endured grief and disbelief, agreed to our request, and we secretly escorted him to a safe place.

Afterwards, the originally harmonious "Twelve Guardians of Ninja Warriors" finally broke into two camps, ushering in the moment when they turned against each other——

In this way, on the tower of the daimyo, we waved our weapons at our former companions as if we were facing an unforgivable enemy, completely ignoring our feelings, but fighting with our own lives...

In order to avoid harming the innocent, the six of us successfully shifted the battlefield and surrounded each other in a canyon.We tried to persuade Hema and the others to change their minds for the last time, but it was still in vain. The disheartened Dongmao, Xidu, Nanwu, and Beizi decided to launch the legendary "Thunder Dungeon" at the cost of their own lives. "Lei Meng Lei Ren", died together with He Ma and the others——

Maybe we can't stop fighting, but at least we can die together!It's not in vain to be a companion for many years...Is that so?

But just when Di Lu and I were heartbroken for seeing the ten companions in front of us die in front of our own eyes, Kazuma actually crawled out from under the corpses of our companions!

He's all alone...is it finally the end? !

"Asma!"

"And the horse!"

Hema and I roared and shouted each other's name at the same time, rushed towards each other, and drew our weapons to the other's heart!Other than that, we have no other way to find out the other party's mind, only to fight to the death!

I won.

Perhaps the result was lucky for me, and Lu Lu and I both survived—but the other ten former friends all lost their young lives in this conflict.

Even the daimyo-sama, because of what happened between the guards whom he trusted with all his heart, was deeply shocked, and couldn't afford to get sick...

Is this the end of the "Twelve Guardian Ninja Warriors" that resounded throughout the ninja world?

But at the beginning, who would have thought that this day would come?

Moreover, after this incident, I have a new confusion, and I seem to understand something——

"What is 'Jade'? I always thought that 'Jade' should be guarded. Is it really correct?"
