Chapter 116: The Calm Before the Great War

"Chiba, aren't you resting yet?"

Seeing that Chiba was still writing and drawing on the map in the middle of the night, Xiao Nan came over and asked. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Oh. Chiba was slightly stunned: "I'll study it again." ”

Xiao Nan showed a helpless smile: "Recently, I feel like you're under a lot of pressure..."

Chiba also smiled helplessly.

Maybe others can't detect some of his innermost thoughts, but the people who grew up with him since childhood are absolutely impossible to hide.

This also applies to his own body, he can directly guess Xiao Nan's mood through some small movements, even intuition.

Therefore, it is difficult for them to have secrets from each other in the first place.

And these days, Chiba's deep pressure performance is naturally seen by them.

Obviously, the war is going well, but Chiba is behaving more and more solemnly, which is obviously very unreasonable.

Presumably, they also understand that Chiba is hiding some secrets, but since Chiba doesn't say it, they naturally don't ask much, this is a tacit understanding between them, if necessary, they believe that Chiba will say it.

Of course, it is impossible for Chiba to reveal the matter of the absolute and Danzang, and if he can't explain the source of information, he will only make them worry in vain, and he may even reveal flaws.

It's better for him to bear pressure like this alone.

didn't ask too much, Xiao Nan just quietly shook Chiba's hand and expressed his support.

And Chiba also habitually lay sideways on Xiao Nan's lap.

Feeling the faint fragrance of Xiao Nan beside him, and the softness behind his head, Chiba felt an unprecedented peace.

This is probably Chiba's unique method of removing stress.

Suddenly, Chiba thought of a question and asked casually: "Xiao Nan, if one day, Yahiko fulfills his wish, and the ninja world begins to become peaceful, Xiao Nan, what are you going to do." ”

"What for..."

Xiao Nan blushed slightly: "Of course I'm marrying you..."

Speaking of this, Xiao Nan's voice was as thin as a mosquito.

"And then take care of the children..."

"Do you have a husband and a child... It's very small. ”

Chiba's gaze began to soften gradually, but soon, this softness once again turned into firmness.

In the eyes of ordinary people, this should be a simple wish.

But for them, it is extremely difficult to do so.

In fact, if he could, Chiba felt that neither Yahiko nor Kominami Nagato had any intention of getting involved in the dispute.

For them, having enough to eat may be enough to be satisfied.

However, reality is constantly forcing them forward.

Such troubled times do not allow them to be alone, and those careerists who are one by one are also not allowed to be alone.

If you advance, you will live, and if you retreat, you will die, this is their current situation.

Just like the ancient heroes who fought for hegemony in the previous life, it is basically impossible to quit if they fail to compete for hegemony.

In such a world, it is either you kill someone else, or someone else kills you.

What's more, they are also involved in the biggest conspiracy in the ninja world.

Unless one day, they are really standing at the top, it is impossible to live in peace.

Suddenly, Chiba remembered what Jiraiya had said when he asked them if they were really sure to become ninjas.

"In fact, ninja is a profession full of danger and pain, you will be caught up in the fight with others day after day, constantly facing the loss of relatives, friends, lovers, disciples, this important person is constantly passing, as far as I have come into contact with so far, there are almost no ninjas who can die well. ”

Jiraiya is right, ninja is a profession that is difficult to end well.

Even just now, Chiba has already felt this situation slightly.

The seniors and partners you regard as relatives and friends are leaving you one by one, which makes people feel constantly depressed.

Those vivid living people who were still calling out to you affectionately the day before and looking at you with adoring eyes may become an inconspicuous number of casualties on paper in the next second, which in itself is a painful thing.

And these are not the most important people to themselves.

Chiba couldn't help but look at Xiao Nan beside him.

One day, Minami Yahiko Nagato and the others were hurt, and Chiba couldn't even imagine what kind of mood it would be like, nor could she imagine what crazy things she would do.

And it is precisely because of the fear that such a thing will happen that Chiba's mood has been quite heavy, and he has been forcing himself to come up with a way to deal with it.

He has been carefully trying to protect this hard-won happiness, and has been silently bearing the pressure that only belongs to him.

He can't fail...

Sensing that Chiba's mood had become heavy again, Xiao Nan gently rubbed Chiba's face and steered the topic in a relaxed direction.

"Chiba, do you like boys or girls..."

"Well, girl..."

"Hee-hee, I like girls too... I've got all the names chosen..."

"What's the name?"

"I won't tell you. ”

......

Feeling the tranquility that had been lost for a long time, Chiba finally fell asleep gradually.

And Xiao Nan was lying quietly on Chiba's chest.

"Chiba... I'll always be with you..."
