[Hokage] Naruko Haze

The moment Naruko saw the sea, Naruko was shocked and could not speak for a long time.

Words such as beautiful, magnificent, magnificent, etc. cannot describe the feeling at this moment.

When performing missions in the Kingdom of Waves, I did see the sea, but the mission was the most important thing, so I didn't even bother to take a second look.

For the first time, I really felt the sea.

The hot and humid sea breeze blew a slight fishy smell.The white sand under the feet is delicate and warm, protruding from between the toes, itching, making Naruko laugh.Looking around, the gray-blue water and the blue sky are integrated into one, which makes people feel refreshed and happy. One can't help but wonder, what kind of unknown existence will there be in that hazy line?

Naruko couldn't help rushing into the ocean, leaving the stunned Kou behind.

She stepped on the waves and ran against the sea breeze, with white seagulls flying around her, the water surface shone with golden light, and the splashed sea water was very cool.

"Multiple Shadow Clone!"

The Naruko lined up, holding hands and following the waves, jumping and rolling.

Come again and again!

"Spiral pills!"

The sea water blasted more than ten meters high, Naruko held his head up to bear the baptism of the huge waves, then frowned and spit out the sea water in his mouth, laughing.

This is really bitter and salty!

Sitting on the beach, Kou looked coldly at the crazy Naruko.

Sure enough, his ninjutsu is half-baked.Konoha's ninjas are really scary...

Having said that, is it that interesting?If you are happy like that, it’s not just a sea!

"Hey, Ming, you come too!" Naruko got up from the sea wetly, smiled and waved.

"Forget it!" Huan snorted, but unexpectedly, Naruko who suddenly came to the side picked him up and threw him into the sea.

"What kind of sophistication does a child pretend to be!" Naruko put his hips on his hips, laughed loudly, tearing off the seaweed from his body in a panic, shouted in embarrassment:

"I'm already 23! I'm not a kid at all!"

"Really?" Naruko tilted his head, stretched out his hand from the top of Kuang's head, "but you just reached my chin."

Unexpectedly, these words hit the weakest part of Guang, his eyes turned red, and he roared:

"What do you know? A little girl who lived in the peaceful age and didn't know the bitterness of the world! Have you ever had no food for three years and watched everyone around you starve to death? Have you ever stuffed everything in your mouth and were still hungry?" Do you have to experience dying?"

Looking at the startled Naruko, Kuang took a few deep breaths and calmed down his emotions: "Sorry, what I said just now was not aimed at you, but just a personal vent, don't mind." Then he turned around and left, leaving behind on the beach. One by one small, shallow footprints.

"Wait, Ming, I'm sorry!" Naruko caught up and said, "I'm the one who's sorry, I really don't know anything, so please tell me, what's going on?"

"I told you, so what can I do?" Ming's voice was immature, but he couldn't hide the deep pain, "I don't need sympathy and pity!"

"I will become Hokage and make changes!" Naruko held him back and bowed seriously.

Guang was startled, and sarcastic words came to his lips, but he could not utter them. Finally, he sighed: "Forget it, it's a thing of the past, so it's okay to talk about it. 14 years ago, there was a severe drought across the country. The land in the village was originally barren and the harvest was not good, and then there was no harvest, and starvation was everywhere. I was nine years old at the time, and I buried my parents with my own hands... In fact, it was nothing, that kind of dilapidated house, which was cut down in a few strokes. For two whole years, I tried everything I could to survive, and the number of times I fainted from hunger was innumerable. I really don’t know how I woke up every time. It didn’t rain until the third year, but there was no one in the village I came to plant the land. I had to leave and wander around, but I was afraid of starvation in other places. Before the harvest, I would like to give food to a child who seemed to be starving. At that time, I met my father and he gave me A piece of sweet potato, I still remember the taste of that piece of sweet potato. I finally survived... However, my body will never grow up again, and it will stay in that year forever..."

From then on, life has no youth, no prime, no family, no offspring... only in endless childhood, silently waiting for death.

Naruko didn't speak, and glanced at her, and decided to beat her up if Naruko showed any pity, and then found that the girl in front of her eyes were red, but she was not sympathetic, but angry.

Mrs. Ah Shui's words echoed in her mind: "During the two years of severe drought, we didn't eat much. We saved food as much as possible and donated it to those places that were severely affected by the disaster, hoping to help them... Of course, we entrusted the daimyo We don't have our own trucks."

Naruko finally said, "No one, can I help you?"

After thinking for a while, he said: "At that time, everyone was so hungry that they ran to the capital. It is said that there is a porridge factory outside the capital, but my village is too far away from the capital, and the people are too small to walk. The third year When it rains, there are officials sent by the daimyo to distribute rations and seeds according to the working population."

Is that right... Naruko clutched her arm tightly, feeling a chill in her wet body, she felt the puzzled gaze of Guang, and hurriedly opened the corner of her mouth: "It's okay, I just came out of the water, the wind is a bit cold. "

Ming was silent for a while, then suddenly glanced at Naruko's wet body in a grand manner, and raised his eyebrows: "Speaking of which, no matter what kind of beauty stands in front of me, I can't stand up. Of course, seeing you, even if A normal man shouldn't be able to stand up."

After returning to Leihuo's home, Naruko and Ming were greeted by two half-hundred men stumbling around. The room smelled of alcohol, and the furniture was all over the floor.Lei Huo reluctantly opened his eyes and took a look:

"What's wrong, your face is so swollen while you're covering your stomach? Go to the toilet as soon as you eat something!"

"...It's not something that can be relieved by going to the toilet."

To avoid suspicion, Naruko and Jiraiya still live in the hotel, usually hiding in the crowd, observing the movements of the Iwai Group and the salt merchants.The Panjing group has not taken any action for the time being, but the salt merchants are making great fanfare and preparing to go to sea for trade.

"Across the sea is the land of water, an island country with many peaks, and the soil area available for planting is very limited. If you supply tobacco, tea, spices and wine there, the profits should be very good." Leihuo told Zilaiya.

Naruko asked, "Salt merchants don't sell salt well, why do they want to go to sea?"

Lei Huo laughed again when he heard it: "Ji Lai Ye, you apprentice, you are as naive as you. The national salt supply market has almost been divided, and the price cannot be raised too high because of the order of the daimyo, and the profit of salt can no longer be satisfied. These businessmen, they turned their eyes to the other side of the sea, the country of water. And my dream is also there!"

The relationship between the Land of Water and the Land of Fire is tense.However, it took half a month for the well-funded salt merchants to get through the relationship with the daimyo and get approval to go to sea. The country of water said that normal trade can enter the national border.

Naruko and Jilai also transformed into young sailors, successfully applied for the job, and boarded the ship.

"Naruko, how long can your transformation last?" Jiraiya asked.

"I have been practicing hard during this period. If I can rest for five hours in the middle of the night, I will have no problem maintaining it for a month."

However, the Iwai group was too quiet, and didn't even make a trip, which made Leihuo a little worried.Don't worry, the day of going to sea came as scheduled, and the white canvas fluttered in the wind like wings, rattling.

It was sunny and sunny.The dark-skinned young man stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the place where the water and the sky meet, smiling confidently.

At night, it was Naruko's turn to be on duty. She stood on the mast and looked around.The sound of the ship's smooth sailing across the sea makes people feel at ease thinking about the unknown opposite shore.Starlight sprinkled on the sea, and Naruko stood in the middle, spreading his hands, as if this was his own stage.

"Hey, Naruto, come down, it's my turn!" The shift worker under the mast arrived.After Naruko transforms, she calls herself Naruto, and everyone on the boat calls her that.

Just as she agreed and climbed down the mast, she heard an ominous sound of treading water, getting closer.

"Not good! There is a situation! Turn on the lights!"

The enemy is a ninja from Hidden Rain Village.

One of them jumped on the bow of the boat, and said indifferently, "Where is the salt merchant Sagara?"

Although the dark-skinned young man was wearing a nightgown, he didn't look down: "I am. Your Excellency came here in the middle of the night, who do you mean?"

"The client asked me to tell you, go back obediently, and swear that you will never disobey Iwai's order again. Otherwise, the lives of the people on this boat will be accounted for here."

Sagara didn't speak, he looked at Lei Huo, and Lei Huo returned a confident expression when he remembered Jiraiya's strength.

"That's a pity, I'm Sagara, and I'm not so easy to bully! Non-combatants retreat to the cabin immediately and lock the door!"

However, there were already screams in the cabin, and Lei Huo's face changed, wondering if the enemy had been ambushing in the hands of the sailors beforehand!This is not good!

"Leave the person on the splint to me! Naruko, please protect the safety of Sagara-sama!"

Naruko jumped to Sagara's side and said, "No problem, I accept your request!"

The commotion in the cabin continued, even though Jiraiya was also inside, Naruko was still anxious, so she sent a few shadow clones in to help, Sagara watched her movements, and said with a smile: "Little girl, you are also a ninja, It's really amazing."

Seeing his calm expression, Naruko couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you afraid? You might die."

"I'm sure I won't die." Sagara leaned on the railing, looking into the distance, as if the noise around him had gone away.

"Because I was born with a mission. I have this feeling that I'm not going to die here."

Naruko couldn't help but be convinced by the other party's extremely confident and calm expression, and asked, "What is your mission?"

"I grew up by the sea, and I have always wondered what is the end of the sea. Someone told me that the opposite of the sea in Changzhou Town is the country of water, and what is after the country of water? On the map, the east of the country of water is It’s blank, I really want to know what’s there... When I grew up, I entered the salt industry just because this business makes money quickly and can quickly accumulate funds to go to sea. Now, it’s the first step to fulfill my mission " Sagara smiled at Naruko, his eyes sparkling.

"I want to keep sailing forward, even if I can't reach the end of the sea in my life, it doesn't matter, I will go in that direction. This is my mission."

At this time, an approaching scream interrupted the conversation between the two, and a sailor who ran towards Sagara caught a dart and fell down, dying with regret.

Naruko quickly dispatched a shadow clone to meet the enemy.The sailor's blood gradually flowed out, staining the deck red.

"Even if the completion of the mission is based on the blood and lives of others, don't you care?" Naruko asked.

Sagara walked over and squatted down, gently brushing the sailor's eyelids.

"I'll take that as a spur and never look back."

Lei Huo was a little out of breath. After all, he hadn't fought in real combat for many years, and his physical strength had also declined. After a long time, he couldn't keep up with his opponent's movements.

hateful!I haven't set foot on the land of the land of water yet!If it fails again this time, I don’t know if it will be the Year of the Monkey again!

Naruko guarded Sagara, restless, seeing that Lei Huo was at a disadvantage, it made her uncomfortable not to help.Seeing her emotions, Sagara smiled and said, "Go, I won't die, and you can do what you want."

However, it was still a step too late.

He watched helplessly as the enemy's water knife sliced ​​through Leihuo's chest.

There was only time to use the spiral pill to knock Yu Ninja into the air.

Naruko hugged Leihuo, his lungs and heart were injured, he must be treated immediately!

However, there are no medical ninjas on board, and I don't know medical ninjutsu!

"Mingzi, don't worry, listen to me..." Lei Huo coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood bubbles, knowing that the situation was over, "Help me, do me a favor, okay..."

28 years ago, the Ninja World War II, the five countries of rain, fire, wind, earth, and thunder were hostile and lasted for five full years.

Lei Huo and the people who were later called the "Three Ninjas" were all on the battlefield.

I am almost numb to death, maybe it will be my turn tomorrow.

Rather than constantly collecting corpses for my companions, I really want to die quickly...

until that day.Leihuo, who was cornered, was rescued by a passing Wuying ninja.

Bright blue long hair, like the blue sky after the dark clouds have cleared.

"You Konohas really like to toss, fight with this one, and then fight with that one. Of course, we, Wuying, are not much better."

The sound is like the birdsong you hear when you are sleepy in the morning.

"Don't talk about it, I don't want to bring trouble to the kingdom of water."

The other party turned around and left, Lei Huo hurriedly called to her: "Wait, that road has already been covered with explosive traps by us!"

Kiri Ninja shrugged and took another route.

"There's an ambush on that line, and it wasn't Konoha ninjas who killed them all!"

"This...doesn't work either, Yu Shinobi is waiting in front."

Wu Ninja yelled: "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, what the hell! It's just that it took me a long time to complete the mission, and I encountered a war. I went around, and I still couldn't avoid the battlefield... Hey, okay I want to go back to the village quickly!"

Lei Huo couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat: "I, I'll take you out..."

Wu Ninja glanced at him sideways: "Don't you still want to fight? Don't care about the mission?"

"It's okay, it's okay..." Lei Huo scratched his head and smirked. Seeing him like that, the other party couldn't help but chuckle: "What kind of ninjutsu do you know? You're so stupid. Okay, let's go!"

Her name is Yuan.The name rolls on the tip of the tongue like pearls.Only her figure was in the eyes and in the mind.

However, separation is inevitable.

The kiss on the lips was hot and lingering, and when they left, both parties trembled violently.

"Can we still meet?"

"I don't know... maybe next time... it will be on the battlefield..."

Then, I will not participate in the war against the land of water.But can it really be avoided?

I am nothing more than a tool of the state named ninja...

When he was shot down into the river, Leihuo thought he could finally be freed.

Let's just keep drifting like this...Maybe we can float to the land of water...

"So, you must, you must take me to Wuying Village...and bury me there..." Lei Huo grabbed Naruko's hand, and the remaining light of life was waiting for her promise.

"I promise you." Naruko looked into Leihuo's eyes and said softly but firmly, "I swear by Uzumaki Naruko's name, I will definitely bury you in Wuying Village."

Lei Huo smiled slightly and let out his last breath.

Its daybreak.Yu Shinobu was defeated and fled.Kuang didn't cry.

"My name is the combination of Huo and Yuan. Therefore, I will live in the land of water and realize my father's dream."

The ship finally reached the land of water.

Naruko and Jiraiya couldn't get off the boat, because Water Country's inspections were so strict that everyone's packages were searched carefully.Their identities are quickly revealed.

Wuying Village refused entry to ninjas from other countries who did not apply in advance, and the two could only stay on the cargo ship until the trade was over and return to the Land of Fire.

Ming carried Lei Huo's body off the boat, cremated it, and put the ashes in a bag to Naruko.

"I have inquired about it. The country of water is very expensive. Only the outstanding ninjas of the country are eligible to be buried. Everyone else is buried in water. Didn't you say that you can become Hokage? Then the father's will will be completed by you. .”

Holding the urn, Naruko seemed to be able to feel the unwillingness and longing, the never-ending burning heat of love.

"must!"

After returning to Changzhou Town, Naruko left a shadow clone beside Sagara to help.

"It will disappear in about half a month, don't worry, I will send a new shadow clone over in advance." Naruko said to Sagara with a smile.

"Thank you very much!" Sagara bowed deeply, "If I gain a firm foothold in the country of water, it will only be a matter of time before I convince Mizukage. At that time, no matter if I use the country of water as my base to march to the sea again, or I will be buried. It's as easy as flipping the palm of your hand."

"It's my mission to bury Leihuo, I will do it!" Naruko always felt that if he was preempted by others, he would be a little sorry for his vow.

"Haha, you're really stubborn." Sagara laughed.

"By the way, if I forget to send the shadow clone_body in advance, there will be a delay on the road for a few days. If something goes wrong in those few days, you can figure it out yourself."

"……All right."
